Chapter 228: The battle for the scoring champion
Kobe is the first player to be sure to withdraw from the scoring battle. He fell to the end after the first game in April, and considering the state of Gasol and Odom, it is difficult for Kobe to win the scoring champion this season.
In April, the Heat and the Kings had 7 games, while the Lakers and the Cavaliers had 8 games. After the first game, the ranking of the scoring champions was Wade, James, Zhang Weifeng and Kobe. James was extremely close to Wade in his scoring, and Zhang Weifeng was obviously still in the upward stage. You should know that he was able to score 60 points in his first game in April, which is something that cannot be ignored.
April is the end of each season, so the schedule of the game is also very fast. The Cavaliers have secured the record of No. 1 in the East, so James played three more games after the game against the Bucks, and then decided to rest. In the last three games, James' offense was not very strong, and it can be seen that James did not intend to compete with Wade for the scoring champion. In the three games, James contributed 22 points, 22 points and 19 points respectively. Therefore, his total score this season was frozen at 2310 points, and James finally played only 78 games and 29.6 points this season. This inconspicuous performance made James the most powerful contender for the scoring champion. Although he confirmed the quit in the end, he was still likely to win the scoring champion this season with an average of 29.6 points.
James is sure that news about the Cavaliers will no longer be spread, and everyone has turned their attention back to Zhang Weifeng, Wade and Kobe. However, in recent games, Kobe's performance has not been particularly efficient, and his score has been stable at 20 points. However, he is often under the scoring by Gasol and Odom in the game. Kobe's average score gradually decreases, so the final women's suspense is on Zhang Weifeng and Wade.
James's quit was after the end of the game with the Raptors on April 7, and Wade performed continuously and efficiently at this time. Obviously, Wade really hopes to win the scoring champion this season.
Wade scored 43 points in the away game against the Pacers, while Wade scored 40 points in the away game against the Timberwolves. Wade scored 40 points and 40+ in two consecutive away games. Wade seems to have secured the scoring champion. However, after returning to home, Wade scored only 22 points in his first home game, but that would not hurt. Wade scored after these three games, which is the technical statistics of No. 8. His total score was 2229 points, and his total number of appearances was 74 games. In this way, Wade's average score could still be maintained at 30.1 points. This scoring score also temporarily allowed him to beat James's 29.9 points and still top the scoring list.
