Chapter 237 Give me a slap in the face of those people!

"The Wizards coach booked the championship trophy in advance!"

"Are you talking nonsense or being confident? The genius coach is not satisfied with the youngest and best coach in NBA history, and you must become the youngest champion coach in NBA history!"

As a coach, Wang Xiao cannot compare with players like Curry in terms of popularity, but when he said this, the entire league was shocked. Over the years, the league has experienced many strange head coaches, but it is the first time for a lifetime like Wang Xiao!

Although Wang Xiao did not say when he would win the championship trophy, the meaning in his words clearly showed that he wanted to win the championship trophy this year.

Looking at the entire league, even Popovich, who has four crowns in hand, dared not say such words so confidently.

So, the first reaction of people was that this guy was crazy.

Are the Wizards strong? Very strong. So far, they rank first in the league in regular season records, first in the league in offensive efficiency, and top five in the league in defensive efficiency. This is completely a team with a strong dominance.

But even so, most people don’t expect that the Curios team can win the championship.

The reason is very simple. This team is too young, with young coaches, young players, and young and immature tactical system.

Although their current playing style and rhythm make the entire league uncomfortable, there is still a long time left in the regular season. In the next forty games, there will always be teams who come up with tactics and styles for the Wizards. In the playoffs, once a shooter-type player like Curry who relies too much on his touch is targeted, it will be difficult to fight a tough battle.

"Wang Xiao? Wizards? Haha, if you want to win the championship, you should find a center that can protect the frame first."

"He thought NBA was? CBA? He could get it if he wanted to win the championship? What a joke?"

"I seriously doubt whether Wang Xiao is drunk? Otherwise, how could he say such a thing? I am looking forward to the playoffs a few months later. What kind of expression will this guy have when his team is eliminated?"

Faced with all kinds of sarcasm and ridicule, Wang Xiao seemed very calm. Before he said this, he had already imagined what the result would be, but he didn't care.

He said this just to fight back against Denagro's previous ridicule.

Didn’t you say that a coach who has never won a championship is not worthy of being called the best coach in the NBA? Then if I win the championship, would you admit that I am the best coach?

Unfortunately, Denagro did not stand up directly to respond to Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao was not sure whether this guy was timid. After all, if this kind of thing was agreed, if Wang Xiao really won the championship, then he, Denagro, would become the laughing stock of the entire league and become a supporting role in Wang Xiao's legendary story.

Similarly, if Wang Xiao had no crown in his life, he would become a complete clown, and would be often mentioned and ridiculed after dinner.

In terms of risk and difficulty, Wang Xiao is obviously higher, but Denagro still doesn't want to take such risks.

In fact, he never expected that Wang Xiao was so reckless, just because of his slightly sarcastic words in an interview, he was so tough to confront him!

This incident was gone because Denagro pretended not to know, but this incident was constantly brewing and fermenting.

After Curry knew about this, he called Wang Xiao again to apologize. He knew very well that if it weren't for his unrest in the talk show, the situation wouldn't have been so bad.

"You boy, don't you know how to apologize?"

What he didn't expect was that Wang Xiao was on the other side of the phone, but he said with great regret: "If you are really sorry, then show me a good performance in the game, win this year's championship and slap those people hard in the face!"

Curry opened his mouth wide and was stunned for a while before saying, "I can, coach!"

At the same time, Curry's heart couldn't help but stir.

The coach is serious! He really wants to win this year's championship!

To be honest, although he was unwilling to lose to the Mavericks last year, Curry never thought about the team's continued championship this season. Like most people, he also thinks that he and the team are too young, and that in terms of ability and experience, they are much worse than those old-fashioned giants.

The fact that he was able to enter the finals last season was also related to luck. For example, when James played against the Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals, he actually performed poorly...

Now, Curry won’t think so anymore, because Wang Xiao has sent him a signal!

As the main core of the team, if Curry has no confidence in this, how could anyone else have it?

"How can I get the regular season MVP if I don't get the FMVP?"

After hanging up the phone, Curry's eyes flashed with excitement...

In the following days, the Wizards players discovered that Curry worked harder in daily training. Curry had been very diligent in training, but now he was like a cheat. Correspondingly, Curry became more aggressive on the field.

On February 6, Curry made 7 three-pointers at home, scoring 41 points in the game, leading the team to win.

On February 8, he played against the Knicks at home, with 36 points and 7 assists!

On February 10, he played away against the Pistons, with 39 points and 5 assists!

On February 12, away against the Jazz, with 34 points and 4 assists!

Curry turned into a scoring machine, scoring on the field like cutting melons and vegetables, and no one can stop him!

The entire league was surprised by Curry's crazy performance. After averaging 31 points per game in January, Curry was clearly going to be the player of the month in February!

Relying on this wave of consecutive 30+ scores, Curry's popularity has once again recovered, and he has once again opened a little gap with Ross in the All-Star voting.

However, Curry's crazy scoring performance did not continue, because immediately after the away game on February 14, Curry was once again arranged for a rest by Wang Xiao.

It is a good thing to be in good condition, but it is easy to get into trouble if you are too strong. Especially like Curry, who is a relatively famous glass man, has never played in full play in a season in his career, so Wang Xiao is also cautious when using Curry.

Without Curry, the Wizards' winning streak came to an abrupt end, but even so, the Wizards still led the league with an absolute advantage.

Before the All-Stars, there were 4 games left. Wang Xiao rested several main players in these four games, and finally achieved a record of 3 wins and 1 loss.

On February 22, after the away game against the Kings, players from all teams in the league were finally able to breathe a little relieved and get a rare breathing time.
