Beijing time on February 8, the NBA regular season continued, today the Hornets sat at home to usher in the challenge of the Raptors, because Durant could not participate in the All-Star due to injury, the three goals also successfully replaced Durant's position into the All-Star, and the Raptors side VanVleet was also selected as an All-Star with excellent performance, both are all-Star newcomers, I thought that the direct dialogue between the two in this contest would be very good, but I did not expect that the three goals were exploded by Van Jordan, plus the Raptors other players played better, In the end, the Raptors beat the Hornets 116-101.
After winning the game, the Raptors achieved a record of 6 consecutive wins, and their record was not good at the beginning of the game because of the injuries of Anunoby, Sika and others, but with the return of several talented players, the Raptors also gradually found their form, after this wave of 6 consecutive wins, they reached the sixth position in the East, pressing the Nets, ranking second only to the 76ers very good. This season, the Raptors can achieve such results, which I believe is something that many friends have not expected.
The Raptors scored 20+ points: Van Jordan shot 7-of-14 from the field, 6-of-11 from three-point range for 20 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, 1 block, Siakam 10-of-15 shooting, 2-of-4 three-pointers for 24 points, 11 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 block, Anunoby had 20 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals on 8-of-18 shooting, Trent shot 8-of-16, 4-of-9 three-pointers for 24 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, barnes had 15 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists.
On the other hand, the Hornets, three goals in the conversation with Van Jordan was completely exploded, only 5 of 19 shots, 1 of 6 three points, 15 points, 4 rebounds, 9 assists, 4 steals and 7 turnovers were very inefficient, Bridges tried his best, 8 of 17 shots, 2 of 7 three points, 25 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, Rozier also performed well, 8 of 19 shots, 4 of 11 three-pointers, 20 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, Oubrey scored 17 points, and Hayward left the game early due to injury.
After the loss, the Hornets suffered a 5-game losing streak, although they still ranked ninth in the East, but in terms of current performance, it is difficult for them to reach the playoffs this season, although they have a good lineup thickness like the Raptors, they can play more players, but their defense is too poor, although the Hornets' reconstruction has begun to bear fruit after the arrival of three goals, but their reconstruction speed is obviously not better than the Raptors.
After the departure of the little card, the Raptors entered the reconstruction period, they began to swing last season, won the No. 4 show Barnes in the offseason, while sending away the team veteran Lowry, began to correct Van Jordan, it took only two seasons for them to complete the reconstruction, now the team can play a lot of players, in addition to Van Jordan There are champions like Sika, who won the best of the week last week with his outstanding performance.
At the same time, Anunoby can average 18+5+2 data per game this season, the performance is also very eye-catching, Trent is last season's Raptors from the Blazers traded players, it turns out that Ugery's vision is indeed outstanding, so far this season Trent can average 18+2+2 performance is also excellent, and the No. 4 show Barnes performance is also very good, which also created the Raptors' strong five Tigers start, Barnes has averaged 15+8+3 per game so far this season.
Speaking of which, what do you want to say about the current Raptors? Welcome to leave a message to discuss.
