On December 24, Beijing time, in an NBA regular season game that ended today, the Washington Wizards defeated the New York Knicks 124-117 and won a hard-won victory.
Beal didn't play today, but the Wizards seemed to have found the kind of all-out state of the First Place in the East at the beginning of the season, with seven people scoring in double figures in this game, and the overall offense was excellent, of which core point guard Dinwiddie scored 21 points, 7 rebounds and 12 assists, and his teammate Kuzma also praised him after the game: "I think he played more like his former self, we haven't seen him for more than a month." ”
Dinwiddie is a very good two-way guard, but he and Beal partnered in the backcourt effect is not ideal, but he led the team alone when the Wizards have a higher winning rate, Dinwiddie once in the 2019-20 season in durant and Irving long-term absence, almost alone led the team to the playoffs, grassroots leaders deserved, this is why Kuzma evaluates him so much, and he also has words, after all, today Beal did not play, Dinwiddie can continue to be himself, but also won, Bill's situation is rather awkward.
In another game, the Houston Rockets lost 106-118 to the Indiana Pacers suffered a three-game losing streak, the team's center Christian Wood although the team scored a team-high 22 points, but the defensive end of the performance is poor, he cut 32 points and 10 rebounds against the Pacers center Miles Turner, so that the Rockets' interior line completely lost, it is worth mentioning that Wood also did not do well in leading the team, and also had a verbal altercation with teammate Jaylen Green during the game, which was captured by the broadcast camera.
This is already two consecutive games for Wood to argue with teammates, in the last game lost to the Bucks, Wood and another teammate Armony Brooks had a quarrel on the bench, and after today's game, Wood posted on his personal social media, he wrote: "I love Houston, we need to get back together." "At such a point in time to be loyal, somewhat intriguing, the question about Wood rockets may have a conclusive conclusion before the trade deadline.
