Wenban had 34+14+6 shots and the Spurs narrowly defeated him! He blasted 40+2 to make way for the rookie? The Nets couldn t seize the opportunity.

On October 27, the NBA regular season continued. A much-anticipated game ushered in early this morning. The Spurs faced the challenge of the Nets at home. The Spurs had won two consecutive games before this game. Relying on the performance of Wenban and other young talents, the Spurs played a strong offensive and defensive performance, while the Nets were the weakest team in the Eastern Conference. I thought this would be a one-sided defeat, but the two sides played in a stalemate. Next, let's talk about the game process first, and then talk about the performance of the players.

Game review:

At the beginning of the first quarter, Cameron Thomas hit a shot to help the Nets take the lead. Castle broke through and opened the situation for the Spurs. Claxton and Porter Jr. led the team to play. After a 7-0 spurt, Vassell and Barnes led the Spurs to retaliate with a 19-7 spurt to overtake the score. After coming off the bench, the Spurs' firepower remained unabated. Driven by Keldon Johnson, the Spurs led by 7 points at the end of the first quarter.

In the second quarter, Sharp hit a dunk to help the Nets narrow the point difference. Wenban and Champagne responded with 4 points in consecutive offenses and free throws. Porter Jr. hit a three-pointer. Castle and Vassell scored one after another to help the Spurs once again hit the offensive climax. They will take the lead. The advantage expanded to 12 points. After that, the Nets were only supported by the firepower of Cameron Thomas. At the end of the quarter, Wenban turned on his personal mode. He shot from inside and outside, scoring 15 points in a single quarter. Under his leadership, the Spurs led by 21 points at halftime.

The easy side fought again and Wenban scored an inside dunk to help the Spurs expand their lead. Clarkston responded with a tip-in. Champany and Vassell hit three-pointers one after another. The Spurs once extended their lead to 26 points. Zawei and Xiao Porter responded by scoring 6 points on offense and free throws. After that, the Spurs began to relax, which may be the reason for the big lead. They simply couldn't raise their intensity on both ends of the offense and defense. This also allowed the Nets to seize the opportunity. Under the leadership of Thomas, they caught up to 9 points behind after three quarters.

Wilson and Jamin scored in the final decisive battle. The Nets went on a 16-4 run to overtake the Spurs. The Spurs, led by Wenban, responded with an 11-0 run. In the last 3 minutes, Mann hit a jumper. The Nets were only 1 point away from catching up, and then Wenban started to exert his strength. He first assisted Kelden to score, and then scored 4 points with consecutive offenses and free throws, helping the team kill the suspense of the game. In the end, the Spurs won the game without any danger, 118-107.

The Spurs are blooming more

In the past few days, I have been bragging about the literary class. To be honest, I can’t do it anymore. After all, it is too strong. If you look at history, you can’t find this type of player. Yao Ming’s height, Durant’s Wenban's style of play is simply that of a player born to score. Now Wenban's star temperament has also improved, and he knows when to do what. In this campaign, Wenban made 9 of 21 shots and 3 of 6 three-pointers. He scored 31 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals and 6 blocks.

Since the start of the season, he has averaged 33 points, 13.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.7 steals and 6 blocks per game. Yes, you read it right. In the three games played so far in the regular season, his Wenban team has sent out 18 blocks, and he still has 57 % shooting percentage, only in the third year of his career, it feels like no one in the league can stop Wenban. Maybe when he encounters an insider of Jokic's level, he can put some pressure on Wenban. The thick eyebrows he had before were broken anyway.

In addition to Wenban, Champany scored 13 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists in this campaign, Wenbanyama scored 31 points, 14 rebounds and 4 assists, Vassell scored 16 points and 2 rebounds, and Castle scored 13 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists. , Harper scored 20 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, and Kelden scored 19 points, 7 rebounds and 1 assist. Harper, the second best player, seems to have a very high ceiling. Letting him play as a substitute is a bit of a downgrade. The Spurs can now play enough players, and there is indeed a chance to hit the playoffs in the new season.

The Nets wasted opportunities

The best performer for the Nets in this campaign was Cameron Thomas. He made 11 of 25 shots, 5 of 12 three-pointers, and scored 40 points and 2 rebounds. Since the start of the regular season After that, Thomas showed his aggressiveness on the offensive end. His scoring ability is indeed strong, but he does not like passing the ball. His current position is more like a sixth man, but if he is cultivated, it is not impossible for him to become a top backcourt in the future.

After all, his offense is good enough among players at the same position, but the Nets do not regard him as the future. In the Nets' ideals, rookies such as Jamin and Saraf are the future of the team. Therefore, the Nets have no plans to renew Thomas's contract during the offseason. The two sides were very tense over this matter. In the end, Thomas only received a one-year qualifying contract worth 6 million. Signing this contract also indicates that Thomas will definitely leave the team next summer.

After the start of the regular season, Thomas averaged 29.3 points, 1.7 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game. The five rookies they selected this year have lower ceilings than Thomas. The Nets had the opportunity to cultivate an outstanding future cornerstone, but they failed to grasp it. There is a reason why this team is bad. The management's vision and operation are too average. Having said that, what do you want to say about the current Nets and Spurs? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
