On January 20th, Beijing time, there was a focus match in the Eastern Conference of the NBA's 2024-25 season regular season. The Philadelphia 76ers had to travel to Milwaukee for a back-to-back game and continue their away challenge against the Bucks. This was the second meeting between the two teams this season. In the previous matchup, the Bucks defeated the 76ers by 15 points, gaining a certain advantage. The 76ers have really performed poorly this season, becoming a laughingstock. During the offseason, they formed an anticipated "Big Three" combination. However, at this stage of the season, these three players with a combined salary exceeding $200 million are either plagued by injuries, playing intermittently, or having issues with coordination, resulting in an unsmooth offense. So far, the team has experienced three five-game losing streaks, with a total record of 15 wins and 25 losses, ranking 11th in the East. In contrast, the Bucks were mired in the mud at the beginning of the season, much like the 76ers, with their ranking once at the bottom of the East. However, with the resurgence of Antetokounmpo and Lillard, the team's record has steadily climbed, and they have now achieved a three-game winning streak, with a total record of 23 wins and 17 losses, rising to fourth place in the East, which is a world apart from Philadelphia. Before the game, American media ESPN also provided the latest win rate prediction for that day's match. The 76ers' win rate was only 13.3%, while the Bucks' win rate was as high as 86.7%. Obviously, American…

The NBA regular season is nearing its halfway point, with fierce competition in the Western Conference. From the fifth-placed Mavericks to the twelfth-placed Spurs, there is only a difference of three wins, yet eight teams are clustered together, ensuring that some will secure direct playoff spots while others may not even qualify for the play-in tournament. On the Eastern side, the competition is also more intense than in previous seasons, with teams like the Hawks and Pistons achieving over a 50% win rate. Last season's Eastern Conference finalist, the Pacers, made a six-game winning streak to jump into the top five. The Heat, without Butler, have no room for tanking (if they don't make the playoffs this season, they will give their first-round picks in 2025 and 2027 directly to the Thunder and Hornets), leaving them with no choice but to push forward. Even the 76ers, who are on the brink of struggle, can only maintain a 40% win rate. In fact, the top four in the East this season are basically set. The Cavaliers started with 33 wins in 38 games and even have a chance to challenge the 73-win record! As defending champions, the Celtics have struggled to integrate Porzingis into the team, but like Leonard, Porzingis is meant for the playoffs, and the core lineup is solid enough. As for whether they will disband due to massive salary pressures this summer, that remains to be seen. Including the Knicks' four giants combination, leading with a 65% win rate, and the Magic, plagued by injuries but never dropping…

On January 11, 2025, Beijing time, the 22-win and 17-loss Magic hosted the 19-win and 16-loss Bucks. The Magic's top star, Paolo Banchero, returned from injury, while the Wagner brothers and Suggs continued to be absent. The Magic were playing back-to-back games, and except for Banchero, the other players were not physically fit enough. Could they compete against the Bucks, who have Giannis Antetokounmpo? The Bucks' starting lineup was Lillard + Jackson + Prince + Giannis Antetokounmpo + Brook Lopez, while the Magic's starting lineup was Anthony + Pope + Silva + Banchero + Bitadze. In the first quarter, Prince and Lopez hit three-pointers, giving the Bucks a 6-0 lead. However, Anthony, Bitadze, Silva, and Banchero scored 13 points in a row, allowing the Magic to take a 7-point lead. Lillard, Prince, and Giannis Antetokounmpo narrowed the gap to 1 point, but Pope, Silva, and Isaac extended it to 8 points. Giannis Antetokounmpo and Portis brought the Bucks within 1 point, and Blake and Banchero scored, while Middleton, Portis, and Giannis Antetokounmpo responded. The Bucks took a 1-point lead, but Isaac and Blake helped the Magic regain a 4-point advantage. Giannis Antetokounmpo dunked, and at the end of the first quarter, the Magic led 31-29. In the second quarter, Lillard made free throws, and Isaac and Blake responded, giving the Magic a 5-point lead. Middleton made a mid-range shot, and Banchero and Silva responded, increasing the lead to 7 points. Lillard scored 6 points in a row, and Silva and Anthony responded, keeping the lead at 5 points. Giannis Antetokounmpo…

He is full of positive energy both on and off the court, but unexpectedly was betrayed by his wife and had to divorce. He is Damian Lillard, who continues to move forward while being questioned and breaking doubts. Born on July 15, 1990, in Oakland, California, one of the cities with the highest crime rates in the United States, Lillard grew up in a place filled with drugs, guns, and crimes. However, compared to most NBA players, he was relatively lucky. He was born into a happy and complete family, always accompanied by his parents. Under their strict education, Lillard never got involved in bad habits. When Lillard wanted to play basketball, his parents fully supported him, even spending money to send him to basketball training classes. But life is often about not being able to have both fish and bear paws. Some NBA players have excellent physical talents, but they didn't have good conditions to practice when they were young. Lillard had good conditions to practice, but he didn't have…

Translation of the article content: Originally, I wasn't going to continue creating content today, but I just came across an article where Pippen has a significant opinion about Lillard being included in the Top 75, stating that Lillard doesn't have the qualifications to be among the Top 75 superstars, and that Howard, Gasol, Parker, McGrady, and others are more qualified than him. Regarding this article, I will continue to express my views. I believe that in the selection of superstars, players like Lillard, Anthony Davis, Westbrook should not be included at present, and even Harden is questionable! Many of the older players should not be included either! What does it mean to be a superstar? It should be top-notch in terms of personal ability, honors, and basketball influence! Or they should be outstanding representatives of a certain position, for example, Paul is the epitome of a pure point guard. Although he doesn't have an MVP or championship, he has maintained a high level for so many years. Who doesn't think of Paul when talking about point guards?! For instance, if Rodman can be selected, why can't Howard? They both won several rebounding titles and best defense awards; it's just that Rodman has one more championship than Howard! Lillard really doesn't qualify. Looking at his scoring, he doesn't have a scoring title; in terms of leadership, he doesn't have a championship, and he hasn't even made it to the finals. There are no minor honors for him at the guard position, and his personal honors of six All-Star selections and six…
