Compared with the East, the record of the teams in the West is generally worse.

The record in the Western Conference is the Los Angeles Lakers, which won 57 games in the regular season.

The fact that the Lakers were able to win the No. 1 spot in the Western Conference surprised everyone. After all, the Lakers had the worst record in the league last season, so they were lucky enough to get the No. 1 pick and get Hao Peng.

No one expected that Hao Peng and Butler would have an excellent chemical reaction. With the two as the core and a bunch of outside shooters, the Lakers are quite strong.

The second place in the Western Conference is the 53-win Kings. The Kings are still Harden plus Cousins. This team combination is obviously inferior to the Lakers. In the matchup between Harden and Butler, the offensive ability has the absolute upper hand. Butler's tough defense can save a lot of points.

In the direct match between Hao Peng and Cousins, it was completely crushed.

In the four regular season games between the two teams, Hao Peng averaged 31 points, 16 rebounds, 4 blocks and 4 assists per game, while Cousins ​​only had 16 points and 7 rebounds.

After reaching the finals with the Kings last season, Cousins ​​had a tendency to replace Howard as the league's number one center because of his excellent record and personal data. Hao Peng grabbed his hair and tore it off.

Although as a native of China, Hao Peng's popularity in the NBA is not very popular, but his strength is already recognized as the league's number one center.

Although this is only the first season of Hao Peng's NBA career, don't forget that in the just-concluded Olympics, it was precisely because Hao Peng blasted the inside line that the Huaxia men's basketball team defeated the American men's basketball team and broke the dream team. Dominance in the Olympic arena!

The teams ranked third to eighth in the regular season in the Western Conference are the Clippers, Spurs, Thunder, Grizzlies, Jazz, and Nuggets.

With the dust of the regular season record settled, various statistics have also been concluded.

The first thing I want to talk about is the Thunder superstar Russell Westbrook. In this time and space, the Thunder did not get Durant, but the Turtles are still on the road of no return.

This season, he frantically collected all kinds of statistics, averaging 31.2 points, 10.4 assists and 10.2 rebounds per game. His personal data shocked the entire league. guard.

Under Westbrook, is Harden who won the scoring title. This season Harden's personal data also exploded. His average of 34.7 points per game is the highest score in the NBA scoring list in recent years, second only to Kobe Bryant's 35.4 points in the 05-06 season. point! And at the same time, there are 9.4 assists. It can be said that the Kings can rank second in the West, and Harden has contributed a lot.

The first and second on the scoring list are Harden and Westbrook, and the third player is something no one thought of before the start of the regular season.

Isaiah Thomas is another Wang Xiao player. When he was in the Wizards, Thomas Jr. was also a bench gangster. Although his playing time was limited, every time he appeared on the court, he could surprise people.

After leaving the Wizards, Thomas Jr. moved to several teams. Because of his height, he was always ignored. It was not until he joined the Boston Celtics in the second half of last season that he determined the tactical system with him as the core.

Under the Celtics head coach Stevenson's tactical system, Thomas Jr. is like a fish in water. He has shown extremely strong aggressiveness from the beginning of the new season. In 82 games in the regular season, he averaged 29.4 points and 5.9 points per game. Assists, becoming the first person under 1.8 meters to average 29 points per game.

The nickname of the strongest 1.75 meters on the surface once again fell on Thomas Jr.'s head.

Next on the scoring list is Hao Peng, who averaged 28.9 points, 15.7 rebounds and 3.6 blocks per game in the regular season.

The existence of Hao Peng makes the NBA seem to return to the period when the Shark O'Neal ruled the league. Hao Peng's scoring explosive power is not inferior to O'Neal's, and at the same time, he is stronger than O'Neal on the defensive end. If the two directly match each other, O'Neal can easily Hao Peng was blown away.

In fact, David Robinson played against O'Neal many times in his career, and he was beaten badly. There was no way.

However, in this small-ball league, Hao Peng will be the better one.

On the scoring list this season, whether it is the Bucks or the Wizards players, they all seem a bit low-key.

Durant, who has won multiple scoring titles, Curry averaged only about 25 points per game, ranking seventh or eighth in the scoring list.

It's not that their scoring ability has become weaker, but that the team is too strong!

As the only team in the league with more than 60 wins, whether it is the Bucks or the Wizards, at least three players have scored more than 20+.

For the Wizards, Curry scored 25.7 points, Leonard 24.9 points, and George 22.3 points.

For the Bucks, Durant scored 26.1 points, Antetokounmpo 25.3 points, and Thompson 20.5 points.

Such an average score can't help but make people shudder.

The strength of a team cannot be measured by how high a player's individual score is. Basketball is a game of five players. If all five players perform very well, how can they not win the game?

...

The Bucks' opponent in the first round of the playoffs is the eighth-ranked Indiana Pacers in the West.

This is a game without any suspense. Almost everyone believes that the Bucks will easily sweep the Pacers, which is actually the case.

In each of the four games, the suspense was lost within three quarters. Facing the Bucks' offense, the Pacers could not form an effective defense at all. Antetokounmpo almost wanted to break through the inside line. Durant and Thompson's shooting was also as usual. Stablize.

Four games, a clean 4:0, the Bucks smoothly advanced to the second round.

The scripts of the East in recent years have been exactly the same.

The Bucks, Wizards, Cavaliers, and Nets occupy the top four in the Eastern Conference all year round, and they can all enter the second round smoothly.

Jeremy Lin felt a little helpless.

He won the assists title again this year, and once again achieved a double-double of 20+10. There is no suspense about being selected as the best team and the best first defense. It can be said to be perfect, but the only flaw is the playoffs. record.

Jeremy Lin has been famous since he entered the league, and he has the potential to compete with Jeremy Lin and Paul. However, even Paul has broken through the curse of the Western Conference Finals and successfully reached the Finals, but he has never entered the Eastern Conference Finals.

In fact, this is not Jeremy Lin's fault. Even the fans of the Nets often comfort Jeremy Lin.

There are two big bosses in the Eastern Conference, the Heat and Wizards, and the Bucks, Wizards and Cavaliers. Each team starts with the Big Three. How does Jeremy Lin play? Not to mention Jeremy Lin, who is positioned as a traditional point guard, even if Jordan comes, he has to scold his mother!
