After a day off, on October 31, the Kings defeated the Trail Blazers 113-94 at home and won three consecutive games.

Wang Jun beat Matthews, and Curry beat Lillard.

Lillard made 4 of 13 shots, 4 of 8 three-pointers, and 8 of 9 free throws. He scored 20 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists. Curry scored 28 points and 10 assists.

Wang Jun made the commentator call him "fucked". He played 36 minutes, made 13 of 19 shots, 3 of 4 three-pointers, 11 of 12 free throws, and scored 40 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists.

Matthews was passed over many times and knocked down once. As a top role player, he was almost psychologically affected by Wang Jun.

After the game was reported in the news, Chinese fans gave the team of Wang Jun and Curry a new nickname, "Splash Brothers" to describe their precise shooting. The sound of the ball hitting the net is somewhat similar to the sound of water splashing.

On November 2, the Kings challenged the Clippers and won 108-92.

The Kings' defensive intensity is astonishing, completely different from last season.

Aminu became the biggest surprise. He successfully defended Griffin many times and could always interfere with his shooting. Griffin would be double-teamed when he broke through, his low-post shooting percentage also dropped, and he also suffered three big blocks.

In the second quarter, Griffin cut after a pick-and-roll and wanted to dunk, but Whiteside brought him to the ground with the ball, making him one of the top five goals of the day.

Crawford is out due to injury, and the Clippers' strength has declined. Wang Jun had a triple-double with 38 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists, completely beating Terrence Ross, who only had 10 points, 3 rebounds and no assists.

In back-to-back games, the Kings defeated the Nuggets 125-108 away. Wang Jun defeated Afflalo and scored 45 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists. The opponent he defended made 4 of 13 shots and only scored 13 points including free throws.

Afflalo's defense deteriorated, shooting only 33% from three-point range, and failed to make any two open shots.

Without the burden of Thomas and Vucevic on the defensive end, Wang Jun no longer has to find ways to fill positions for his teammates. His single defense defeats his opponents in every game and takes advantage of the No. 2 position.

On the 5th, the Kings played against the Nuggets at home again and won even more clearly, 133 to 109.

Wang Jun only played 26 minutes and scored 32 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists. He committed two fouls on Mozgov in the first three minutes, leading the Kings to the lead from start to finish.

Afflalo lost all confidence in being guarded by him and had no chance to make a move.

Made 1 of 4 shots, played 22 minutes, only had 2 points and 2 assists.

Curry scored 30 points and 5 assists, and made 7 of 12 three-pointers, continuing his super touch.

The ankle injury has made Curry stronger. His main method of play now is to shoot three-pointers. Without teammates to pick and roll, he will not break through if he is not in position.

He was worried that he would hold back Wang Jun, so he practiced shooting hard in the summer and never idle, and the results were obvious. This season, he has made many long-range three-pointers.

Other Kings players are also working hard. Carroll and Whiteside have been substitutes for the Kings for several years and are eager to become important rotations. They practiced very hard in the summer. Aminu and other fringe players train hard just to stay in the NBA.

On the 7th, the Kings defeated the Suns 132-112 in an away game, winning their 7th consecutive game.

The Suns continued the run-and-gun tradition of the year, with strong offensive power, but poor defense, and were accustomed to using two-back tactics.

Wang Jun and Gobert kept playing pick-and-rolls, and the mismatch attracted Plumlee and Markieff Morris to switch defenses and then pass the ball to the basket.

Gobert's height and wingspan advantages were fully utilized. He squeezed out Thomas and Dragic and scored easily. Wang Jun misplaced one-on-one shots, and he also grabbed a lot of offensive rebounds.

With 20 points, 17 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks, Gobert suddenly broke out. In the new season, he averaged 10.2 points and 10.5 rebounds per game, becoming a double-double center.

Wang Jun had a relaxed and enjoyable game against Bledsoe. He hit four pull-up three-pointers in the third quarter and finished with 35 points, 10 rebounds, 13 assists and 3 steals.

On November 9, the Kings slaughtered the Thunder 117-81 in an away game. No one said they were weak anymore.

The Thunder have been very unlucky this season. Durant and Westbrook have been injured and missed the season, relying on Reggie Jackson and Lamb to partner in the backcourt.

Jackson, who was guarded by Wang Jun, only made 6 of 19 shots. He once again had a triple-double, with 27 points, 11 rebounds, 14 assists and 2 steals.

The role player who broke out in this game was Carroll, who made 9 of 15 shots, 4 of 6 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 24 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 assists.

On the 11th, the Kings defeated the Mavericks in an away game, winning 9 consecutive games.

Chandler is no longer the super defensive player. Several injuries have slowed him down and he cannot switch out. Nowitzki, 36, has declined significantly on the defensive end.

The Mavericks hired Chandler Parsons from the Rockets in the summer. He is not a defensive player and is still slow. The Mavericks' fastest starter is Jeremy Lin. How does this work?

The Kings relied on defense to counterattack and defeated the Mavericks in the third quarter.

On the 13th, they defeated the Grizzlies 114-102 in an away game, winning 10 consecutive games.

The Grizzlies sent Love away and failed to make the inside faster, and the pick-and-roll defense was still bad. The three main rotations of Gasol, Kurfus, and Garnett are slower than the last.

Garnett has not improved since leaving the Nets, averaging 7.6 points, 6.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game.

On the 15th, the Kings played against the Spurs at home. The two sides staged a defensive battle, and the Kings won 94-91.

Whiteside scored 16 points, 14 rebounds and 8 blocks, stunning the Spurs players. Wang Jun became a blacksmith under the careful care of Leonard, Green, and Diaw, but he hit a crucial layup to seal the victory.

The Spurs also have problems with their lineup. The GDP combination is one year older and has given up its core position. The team lacks super scorers.

On the 18th, the Kings played against the Timberwolves at home. Wang Jun was in a deserted situation and scored 44 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists in the first half, leading the team to a 33-point lead.

The Timberwolves' 14th pick in the first round of 2013, Shabazz Muhammad, had no way to stop Wang Jun from breaking through except for fouling. Center Pekovic was slow and was passed by Wang Jun over and over again after the pick-and-roll.

The Bulls, Pelicans, and Rockets were unable to end the Kings' winning streak.

In the home game against the Pelicans, Harden was blocked against Wang Jun, making 10 of 31 shots, 2 of 9 three-pointers, and 4 of 6 free throws, for a total of 26 points, 7 rebounds, and 8 assists.

Wang Jun made 24 goals in 37 shots, 7 of 15 three-pointers, 7 of 9 free throws, and scored 62 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, and 2 steals.

Harden ranks third in the MVP rankings, and together with Anthony Davis and Favors, leads the Pelicans to third in the Western Conference. In two games with the Kings, the Pelicans lost miserably, and Harden was completely suppressed by Wang Jun.

On November 30, the Kings played overtime and beat the Spurs 114-112 away from home. Wang Jun singled out Leonard on the last attack and made a buzzer-beating shot.

The Kings started the game with 18 wins and 0 losses, returning to the top spot in the latest strength rankings. Fans around the world were stunned.

The reporter asked about the King’s secret to winning.

Wang Jun replied: "It's very simple, that is, I am one-on-one, pick-and-roll and then one-on-one, attracting double teams and giving it to teammates who are cutting or outside teammates to shoot."

The reporter didn't believe it: "Your teammates were marginal members of every team before joining the Kings. How did you lead them to do this? It can't be as simple as you said, right?"

"Marginal people don't mean they are incapable. Like Gobert, his wingspan is 235cm, the first in the league, and he is very threatening when shooting at the basket. The second person with a wingspan of 231cm is Whiteside. These are all talents. And I want to do it Just to help them bring out their talents. Now, everyone in the team will work hard to defend instead of just racking up statistics. This is the key to winning."

Those who brush up the statistics naturally refer to Thomas and Vucevic. As long as you watch the ball, you will find that these two people really have no defense. The Magic and Suns are both outside the playoffs and playing poorly.

The Kings' next opponent is the Cavaliers led by James.
