On April 1, Beijing time, the battle for the scoring king can be said to have reached the most intense moment. Brian Martin, a data expert on the NBA website, interpreted the latest situation. With 10 days left, James' lead narrowed to 0.02 points.
Today, embiid and alphabet brothers are both playing. In the game against the Pistons, Embiid played 36 minutes and 30 seconds, shooting 11 of 19, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 14 of 16 free throws, and got 37 points, 15 boards, 3 assists, 1 break and 2 blocks. In the game against the Nets, Alphabet Brother shot 14 of 21, 1 of 4 from three-point range, 15 of 19 from 19, and slashed 44 points, 14 boards and 6 assists.
With 10 days left in the regular season, James is still leading with 30.13 points per game, but he will have to play three games in the next game to ensure that he competes for the top scorer.
Alphabet brother averaged 30.11 points per game, back-to-back bombardment of 40+, catching up with the trend rapidly. Embiid has averaged 34.3 points per game in his last three games and has now averaged 30.00 points per game this season, also having a chance to catch up with James.
That is, James is only 0.02 points ahead of Alphabet Brother and 0.13 points ahead of Embiid. James has recently been plagued by an ankle injury, and the good news is that he has hopes of a comeback tomorrow.
It has to be said that this season's scoring champion battle has a chance to become the fiercest competition in history, and the fiercest one before occurred in the 1977-78 season, when the gap between Gervin George and David Thompson was only 0.07 points.
For James, the battle for the scoring champion may be only secondary, and leading the team to qualify for the play-offs is the current priority, which requires him to have a good performance. With the comeback of the line of fire, can the 37-year-old James continue to be hot?
