Coach Lee

Chapter 779 A hundred schools of thought contend
"The new season still belongs to the Nuggets?"

"As long as Lee wants to, there is no game the Nuggets can't win."

"Crazy three-pointers, no one can stop Li."

The Nuggets won the opener, and many fans were unhappy.Especially seeing Li Nan's 14 three-pointers and 3894 three-pointers, two unimaginable three-pointer records, everyone is in a bad mood.

However, soon, everyone became cloudy.

6-game losing streak!

After the opening game, the Nuggets lost 6 games in a row.

Lakers, Suns, Mavericks, Celtics, Eagles, Bobcats!
Just like the league deliberately retaliated against the Nuggets, the six opponents of the Nuggets are the six teams with the most momentum now.

Worst start ever!

The Nuggets ushered in the worst start in the last decade.

Although the Nuggets won the Rockets to stop the losing streak, it was only temporary.Their failures continue.

87-98
The Nuggets lost to the mighty Magic away!
96-90
The Nuggets lost at home to the newly emerging Trail Blazers in the West!
86-89
The Nuggets lost on the road to the Golden State Warriors, the outlaw team formed by Don Nelson.

...

Lose and lose.

This is the result of the Nuggets at this stage.

At the end of November, the Nuggets' record came to 11 wins and 4 losses!
The Nuggets ranked last in the Western Conference without any surprises.

Even the Clippers, the perennial team in the West, are on top of the Nuggets.

"yeah!!!"

This is the happiest thing for fans of the other 29 teams in the league.There is no greater joy than seeing the Nuggets sink.

Of course, everyone deliberately avoided the fact that Li Nan averaged 43 points, 8.9 points and 9.3 assists per game.

What everyone sees is more the prosperity and prosperity of the entire league in which a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend!
Without the dominance of the Nuggets, the league is a better place, the world is a better place, and the air outside is cleaner.

The hottest team in the West and the hottest team in the league is the Lakers.

With 15 wins and 1 loss, they occupy the first place in the league.

Without the scary Nuggets, the Lakers became the new No. [-] in the league.

The drugged-up duo exhibited unrivaled dominance.The two of them, one mastering the inside and the other mastering the outside, killed their opponents without leaving any behind.

Liu Wei, the Olympic champion point guard, has become more and more stable. The arrival of Ariza, a four-time NBA champion, has made the Lakers' small forward position better supplemented. Odom's performance at the power forward position has become more and more demonic. On the bench, the combination of Sun Yue, Bynum and others can compete with the starters of many NBA teams.

Kobe himself has always occupied the first place in the MVP rankings in the regular season of this season.

The Lakers have also become the most powerful contenders for today's championship.

And the hottest in the East is the Cleveland Cavaliers!
14-2 record, No. [-] in the Eastern Conference
The Cavaliers in the new season are extraordinarily fierce.James' small-forward style of organization has become more and more proficient, sharpshooter Zhu Fangyu is still accurate, and the addition of champion guard Maurice Williams has strengthened the Cavaliers' third scoring point...

In addition, the Celtics, Magic, Eagles, Bobcats, Suns, Mavericks and many other teams played very well.

The Big Three of the Celtics are still so strong, Rondo's growth has given the Celtics a sense of sight of the Big Four.The arrival of Tony Allen gave the Celtics another powerful weapon when dealing with top guards like Kobe.One of the Cavaliers' two losses was thanks to the Celtics.

The Hawks traded Iverson for Billups.Billups, Wang Shipeng, Anthony, Wang Dazhi, Ben Wallace, the Hawks almost became the Nuggets.The tactics and style of play are all the Nuggets.It is not surprising to imitate the championship team. The Hawks copied the Nuggets directly and boldly.Today, they are ranked third in the Eastern Conference, and they are also one of the favorites to win the championship this year.

Under the leadership of Stan Van Gundy, with Howard as the core and four outside shooters on the periphery, the Magic played the best three-point offensive tactics.And the defensive system they built with Howard also made the entire league fearful.

The Bobcats played more and more beautifully under the leadership of Paul and Yi Jianlian.After joining Anderson, this team has more lob dunks in each game. Yi Jianlian and Anderson are flying in the sky every day. Charlotte has become a veritable lob city in the league.They are ranked fifth in the East, but they also have a fight with the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers' second loss came from their Bobcats.It's just that Paul's wrist has been injured recently, and he doesn't know if it will affect it next month.

The Suns now have two lineups.Run and bomb and positional warfare.Both lineups are starting to make people dreadful.The pleasing running and bombing is still an offensive basketball that amazes the entire league.As for the positional battle, the addition of O'Neal and Hill allowed this Suns team to play beautiful offense inside and outside.

……

In addition to these, there are newly emerging teams.

Chicago Bulls, Toronto Raptors, Golden State Warriors, Portland Trail Blazers.

The Bulls borrowed from the 76ers' double-front combination, with Rose as the core, paired with shooters like Ben Gordon or Hinrich, plus the trio of Luol Deng, they can be regarded as rolling up their own in the East. hurricane.

The combination of Bosh and Josh Smith, Joe Johnson and others of the Raptors is also a team that cannot be underestimated.

For the Golden State Warriors, Don Nelson led Arenas and Monta Ellis to make a run and bomb that made the league fearful.Stephen Jackson, Harrington, Biedrins, Mark Barnes, Croshere, this gang of gangsters are fighting chaos, making it possible for teams in the entire league
The Trail Blazers centered on Roy, the champion guard Blake was calm and calm, Fernandez was like flying into the sky and escaping from the ground, Oden and Aldridge, two inside big men who returned from injury, played well. Four.The Portlanders once again launched an impact on the championship.

...

"One person, one city, this is the NBA!"

This is the exclamation of many media people and many NBA fans.

Although what they said is not quite right, it is not true that one person, one city is now, but everyone agrees with this view.

Anyway, far away from a dominant family, this is the good-looking NBA!

At such a time, it is natural that some media people like Barkley stand up and analyze the wave.

"The Nuggets are just training rookies. Next month, the Nuggets will definitely start to grow by leaps and bounds. The Nuggets haven't missed the playoffs in years. And Lee himself hasn't missed the playoffs once. "

.

However, when December came, the Nuggets quickly slapped these media people in the face.

The Nuggets are still struggling in December.

During the Eastern Expedition, they first lost to the Bucks, then to the Wizards, and then barely won the Nets, but lost to the 76ers and Pistons.

The tough schedule pushed the Nuggets into an endless abyss.

Nuggets fans also began to panic.

This is not the Nuggets!

The past Nuggets were not like this.

Although we are training, shouldn't we still have the strength for the playoffs?
Soon, those media people changed their minds:
"The Nuggets have a big plan. They are determined to train new players this season. They will train new players at all costs. They are willing to pay! This is why the Nuggets can be strong. Believe that next season, the Nuggets This team is another team that makes the entire league fearful."

But Barkley was silent.

In December, the Nuggets have been losing and sinking.

Everyone is focusing more on the Lakers and Cavaliers, 24vs23
The Christmas battle has been arranged by the Alliance long ago.

It's the Lakers vs Cavaliers.

This time, the two sides fought a battle.

In the end, the young Cavaliers took the victory at home.

It is also because of this victory that the Cavaliers' record is equal to that of the Lakers, and they have come to the number one throne in the league.

The little emperor James was in the limelight for a while.

However, when everyone was discussing the Lakers Cavaliers and Kobe James, the two games caught everyone's attention.

After Christmas, the Nuggets played against the Lakers and Cavaliers at home.

For these two games, Nuggets fans have no hope at all, and everyone outside feels that the Nuggets are going to be abused.

But, no!

110-123
The Nuggets beat the Lakers by 13 points at home!
In this game, Li Nan was double-teamed by the Lakers, and Xu Yong finally took responsibility.

Big explosion!
In this game, Xu Yong scored a career-high 35 points!
In the face of Ariza's defense, Xu Yong was completely open.

Ariza is obviously a champion small forward and the best defender on the front line, but he just can't defend Xu Yong.

Of course, the most important thing in this game is Li Nan's performance.Li Nan scored 50 points, 12 rebounds and 14 assists. With a large triple-double, he led the Nuggets to kill the second-ranked Lakers in the league and gave the Lakers their sixth defeat in the game.

Among the other role players of the Nuggets today, Jordan performed very well.He followed the pick and roll and ate 8 cakes! 8 of 8, scored a career-high 16 points!
Afflalo on the bench scored 15 points.

As for the Lakers, Kobe and Yao Liang scored 75 points together, which is already very good, but their role players did not perform well enough.Especially Ariza, Ariza scored 3 points and made 8 of 1 three-pointers, just like an undercover agent.

After the game, Li Nan was grinning, but Kobe had a miserable smile on his face, and Yao Liang even had a square face.

.

100-125
The Nuggets beat the Cavaliers by 25 points at home!
In this game, 8 Nuggets scored in double figures.

Xu Yong scored a team-high 33 points.

Li Nan played only 3 quarters and scored 32 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists.

For the Cavaliers, Zhu Fangyu scored 28 points, James had 24 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists. His passing route was cut off, and he could only fall into his own individual singles.

After the game, James also specially thanked Li Nan and the Nuggets for helping them find out the weaknesses of the Cavaliers and himself

"Brother Li, thank you for reminding me."

"Come on, you can do it."

Li Nan smiled faintly, wondering if he understood what James was thanking for.

.

When the Nuggets ended 2008 with an upset two-game winning streak, Barkley, who had been silent for a long time, appeared again.

"Look, this is the Nuggets, this is Lee! The Nuggets are about to take off!"

Although the Nuggets are still only 8 wins and 22 losses, Barkley believes in the Nuggets and Li Nan.

Many teams and fans are talking about it.Everyone is worried that the Nuggets will really rise as a crow mouth said.

If the Nuggets make it to the playoffs, will someone be unlucky again in the playoffs?
Fans of the Mavericks and Suns panicked, and the fans of the Lakers prayed silently at home:

"No!"
