God of NBA point guards

Chapter 114 The Pistons' Probability of Advancement in the First Round Does Not Exceed 30%
"Oh!"

Zhou Quan broke through with the ball and knocked down Mark Jackson.

"Di!"

In the crucial fourth quarter, the referee blew him off for a charge with the ball.

"Shet!"

Chuck Daly cursed loudly: "Damn, this is the best breakthrough with the ball, the defender has no position at all, he is still moving."

He has a bad feeling, this is the home court, and being called an offensive foul at such a critical moment is very detrimental to morale.

"Di!"

Three minutes later, with the Pistons already trailing by 3 points, John Sely's tip-up was blown away.

"That's a good shot, a good shot, see? What are you trying to do?"

Chuck Daly cursed angrily and yelled at the official recorder.

In the 8th minute of the final quarter, the Pistons were still 5 points behind.

Ringo Wilson shook his head and said: "The Pistons' rebounds are still not good, and they have missed 11 shots. That's 11 shots. One in and one out, it's the difference of 22 shots."

Robert Guida sighed: "If it weren't for the low offensive efficiency of the Knicks, the Pistons would have been wiped out long ago.

The Pistons did not play as strong a defense as the previous game today, and lost their advantage on the defensive end.Fortunately, Tekken and Assassin have good organizational skills. They make the team's offense very efficient, so that they can bite the score. "

Ringo Wilson shook his head and said: "Actually, the Pistons' defense is still good today, but it is not reflected in the statistics. This can be seen from the shooting percentages of Ewing and the Knicks. They are ten percentage points less. This stat fully reflects the strength of the Pistons' defense."

"That's true." Robert Jeddah nodded quickly.

In the end, the Pistons still failed to get back in this game, 89:93, lost the G4 game by 2 points, and drew one to one with the Knicks.

周权上场35分钟，17投7中，命中率只有41.2%，拖累了全队的整体进攻效率，5罚4中，拿到了18分5篮板11助攻2抢断2失误2犯规的数据。

The assassin scored 15 points, hit 50% from the field, and sent 6 assists, and his state recovered.

Joe Dumars was the team's leading scorer with 21 points on 47 percent shooting.

Throughout the game, he grabbed 37 rebounds and the Knicks had 49.

"It's better than the last game. There were only 29 games in the game, and 17 games were lost. Today is an improvement." Returning to the locker room, Zhou Quan smiled wryly.

Chuck Daly summed up the game with an ugly expression: "Today we lost again in rebounds, steals and blocked shots are about the same, and our offensive efficiency is 10 percentage points higher than the Knicks.

Unfortunately, the gap in the number of shots is too large. We only took 70 shots, and the Knicks took 90 shots. A total of 20 shots were taken. The Knicks only shot 38.5%. These 20 shots also hit 7.7 more goals, which is 15 more shots. point. "

Rodman grabbed seven rebounds today and only played 25 minutes, which is about the same as the last game.

At this time, he also helplessly covered his face with a towel. The cause of the injury was not that he didn't work hard, but he always felt ashamed of his teammates.

Chuck Daly added: "There were some problems with the penalty scale in the second half, but this is part of the game and we have to learn to get used to it.

Next, we will usher in two away games.We must win at least one of these two games, otherwise we will be eliminated by the Knicks in the away game. I believe this is not the result you hoped for. "

"I don't accept the result of being eliminated in the first round."

Assassin Thomas first expressed his attitude. His state has recovered today, and his self-confidence has also returned.

Zhou Quan also said: "They can win at our home court, and of course we are capable of winning at their home court."

Having said that, he looked at Rodman. This guy is too important. Without his rebounds, it would be really difficult for the team to win against the Knicks.

In the regular season, the average rebounds per game of the Knicks is 44.8, fourth in the Eastern Conference, and the Pistons are 44.3, sixth in the Eastern Conference. The Knicks are only 0.5 more than the Pistons, but now that Rodman is injured, the huge rebound gap can directly take the Pistons life.

He knows that Rodman's injury will not heal so quickly, but as long as the big bug can grab 10 to 12 rebounds per game, the Pistons have a chance.

Grab a few more rebounds, and the Knicks will grab a few fewer rebounds. Once in and out, the gap is also very big.

For example, in this game, if Rodman grabs 10, the team will have 40, and the Knicks will have 46, only 6 away.

And this can narrow the huge gap in the number of shots between the two sides. The Pistons need 6 more shots, and the Knicks need 6 fewer shots. It's really not necessarily a loss. If there are five more, there is hope of winning.

After Chuck Daly finished summarizing, Zhou Quan asked assistant coach Musk to get his data.

After averaging against G1, the points, rebounds, and assists have met the task requirements, and the shooting percentage and true shooting percentage have barely reached the goal. Only the assist-to-turnover ratio is a bit worse, and we must continue to reduce mistakes.

It is easy for him to make mistakes when he goes into the crowd, but if he doesn't go in, his offensive efficiency will be very poor.

At this time, Musk said: "The other three games are over. The Green team won the Pacers twice and got the match point. The Suns did the same. They got the match point from the Spurs. The Warriors pulled back a game and played against the Supersonics. draw."

"Larry Bird is the same as playing and not playing." Another assist, Raylo Wilt, said.

The assassin said with a smile: "The green team is still very strong. Without Big Bird, they can easily handle the Pacers."

When Zhou Quan walked into the bathroom with a towel, he said, "If you don't play in the playoffs, Big Bird will definitely retire."

"His injuries are no less severe than mine." The assassin couldn't help but sighed.

"Isaiah, I hope your state in the next game will remain the same as it is today." Joe Dumars said.

"I will." Isaiah said confidently.

The next day, the media commented on the four games last night.

Of course, the Green Team and the Suns, which won the match point, were well received, and the SuperSonics, which tied with the Warriors, were also well received. Because the weak beat the strong, only the Pistons were criticized.

"The third in the Eastern Conference played against the sixth in the Eastern Conference. They were tied at home. The probability of the Pistons advancing to the first round dropped sharply. The probability of advancing to the Eastern Conference Finals was almost zero, and the probability of winning the championship was zero. ESPN should immediately adjust the probability data of the Pistons." Miami Daily.

The views of this media were immediately recognized by the mainstream media.

Of course, the mainstream media refers to the New York media, but ESPN did not make adjustments immediately, but insisted on the original data.

"Mr. Zhou Quan, your car has been shipped from the United States, and it will arrive in Shenzheng in 15 days..." This morning, Citibank contacted Zhou Quan.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Pistons arrived in New York, settled in the hotel at 04:30, and then held a press conference at the request of the media.

"Coach Daly, the media believes that the probability of the Pistons advancing to the first round is less than 30%. What do you think?" The New York Times reporter asked.

Daly said coldly: "Does the media mean the New York Times? Our Detroit media don't think so. We think we will beat the Knicks and advance to the second round."

"As far as your rebounding ability is concerned, do you think it's possible?" The reporter asked with disdain.

Daly sneered and said, "Look at the first two games, how many rebounds you led us, but the result, one to one, I really don't know where your confidence comes from? Patrick shot less than [-]% ?"

"You?" The reporter turned black with anger.

All the New York media also share the same hatred, and then keep asking some embarrassing questions for the Pistons.

Of course, Zhou Quan was the focus of the New York media. All violent acts and the Detroit murder king were revealed.

After finally getting through the press conference, it was almost six o'clock. Everyone had dinner, and it was already past seven o'clock. After washing up, they gathered together in Joe Dumars' room again, preparing to watch the game.

After everyone's discussion, they decided to watch the game between the Bulls and the Heat.

After winning the championship, Michael Jordan has become a signature star in the league. He is very attractive, including NBA players like them.

Even Zhou Quan, although he had great conflicts with Jordan, had to be convinced by that guy's strength.

After halftime, the Bulls had a 64-point lead with a score of 41:23.

Not only is Jordan in good shape, Pippen is also in very good shape tonight, and his offensive efficiency is even higher than Jordan's, with a shooting percentage of more than 16%. He scored 3 points, 2 assists, 2 rebounds and [-] steals in halftime.

"Without Pippen, Jordan wouldn't have tried to beat us last year." The assassin suddenly said unwillingly.

"How did Pippen perform in the Eastern Conference Finals last year?" Zhou Quan asked.

刺客想了想道：“我的印象很深刻，记得好像是22分8篮板5助攻3抢断2盖帽的数据，那次东决乔丹的表现也就比皮蓬稍强一点。”

Zhou Quan felt that even if there was no Pippen next to Jordan last year, there would be other people. The Pistons might not be swept, but it is almost impossible to win the Bulls.

But of course he wouldn't fight the assassin, there was no need for that.

After an hour of the game, the Bulls scored 120 points and beat the Heat by 30 points.

乔丹23投12中，命中率52.2%，10罚9中，轰下33分。

皮蓬15投10中，命中率高达66.7%，12罚10中，轰下了30分。

Zhou Quan was surprised to find that the two of them did not shoot a three-pointer together, and they kept breaking through the whole process. Some mid-range shots killed the Heat, and then they continued to enter the penalty area to cause damage. defended.

In addition, Jordan's rebounding ability is really strong, he actually grabbed 13 rebounds, and he is the Bulls' rebounding leader in this game.

He recalled that in the G1 game, Jordan should have grabbed 11 rebounds, which is also the most for the Bulls.

"This guy averages 12 rebounds per game? The team is short of rebounds now. Jordan can grab so many rebounds as a shooting guard. It seems that I also have to tap my rebounding potential."

He couldn't help but make up his mind to invest more in rebounders.

However, his predictive ability is not good now, his rebounding ability is average, and he can average [-] grabs per game, which is also the result of hard work.

……

On the morning of the 27th, Zhou Quan completed 94 emergency stop jump shot training at the hotel, and then completed another 88 times at Madison Square Garden in the afternoon. After completing the last round of training, his basic shooting skills were raised to level [-], and the emergency stop jump shot Raised to level [-].

So far, he has completed eight pull-up jumpers.

"Is there a mission?"

At this moment, the system screen automatically unfolded in front of his eyes, and he was very excited.

"The host is asked to complete 1 hours of ball control training. Ball feel +1, ball control +1, breakthrough +[-]. This task can be completed once."

"Please ask the host to complete 1 emergency stop jump shots, emergency stop jump shots +3, this task can be completed [-] times in a row."

"Please ask the host to complete 1 throws, throw +5, this task can be completed [-] times in a row."

"Please ask the host to complete 1 turn and jump shots, turn and jump shots +15, this task can be completed [-] times."

"Please ask the host to complete 1 step-back jump shots, step-back jump shots +5, this task can be completed [-] times."

"Please ask the host to complete 1 hooks, and the hook will increase by +25. This task can be completed [-] times."

……

"The host has completed three of the above shooting training tasks, shooting basic skills +1, offense +1. Completed six of them, shooting basic skills +2, offense +2. All completed, shooting basic skills +3, offense +6, physical fitness +1 .”

He was a little confused, there were too many tasks, more than a dozen, so there were tasks for shooting skills, and if so many tasks were issued at once, did the system cramp?
But it is a good thing to have tasks, and training tasks are also tasks. If the system does not issue these tasks, he still needs to train these skills.

The only difference is that he is still not sure, through the improvement of self-training and the improvement of the system after completing the task, who is faster between the two.

However, in comparison, the rewards for the playoff missions issued by the system are not very good. The promotion to the first round of [-]-[-] is only one skill point, which is not as good as the training missions. It seems that the system hopes that he will improve his skill level through training, at least This is currently the case.

Except for the ball-handling training, these more than a dozen training tasks are all shooting training, and the number of consecutive completions is to limit the improvement limit of this technology to level 91 or 92.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as layups, which are now level 90, and can be raised to level 95 after five times.

He estimated that this should be the limit of the technical level that the current physical fitness can achieve. If you want to improve your technical level, you need to make your quality stronger.

In addition, the emergency stop jump shot training was issued three more times, still [-] rounds, but only the emergency stop jump shot was improved, and the basic shooting skills were no longer improved.

This is the same as his previous guess, it seems that it should indeed be forced to upgrade one level every three thousand times.

For these tasks, he is ready to make a training plan and train during the offseason.

But there are too many tasks, and it is definitely not possible to carry out all of them. It is necessary to selectively improve some skills first.

……

At seven o'clock in the evening, the star-studded Madison Square Garden is already overcrowded.

A large number of Hollywood stars and supermodels appeared on the sidelines, as well as a large number of wealthy businessmen and celebrities, and some sports stars in other fields.

The number one Knicks fan, Spike Lee, is standing courtside, admiring the cheerleaders dancing.

In the visiting team's locker room, Zhou Quan watched the TV. From the TNT live broadcast, he saw many well-dressed stars, and couldn't help but think of Catherine.

If Catherine does not develop well.Maybe they will choose to return to the UK to develop again, and then they will have to break up again.

At 07:30, the two sides announced the starting lineup.

Pistons: John Saley, Dennis Rodman, Orlando Ulrich, Joe Dumars, Joo Kwon

Knicks: Ewing, Charles Oakley, McDaniel, Gerald Wilkins, Mark Jackson

In the TNT commentary seat, Robert Guida said: "For the Knicks, this game must be won. If they lose the first home game, the Pistons will get the match point. This is a result that hurts morale. .”

Ringo Wilson said with a smile: "The Pistons don't want to lose even more. Last year they were able to make it to the Eastern Conference Finals. If they can't even get through the first round this year, it means that this team is really over."

"How to say?"

Robert Jeddah asked cooperatively.

Ringer Wilson said: "Everyone knows that the Pistons are indeed rebuilding and have found a new core, but we know that the main lineup of the Pistons has not changed much. Joe Dumars is still an All-Star with an average of 20 per game. After entering the bench lineup, the thickness of the bench has also been increased. Although Lambir is missing, this team should be stronger than last season's lineup on paper.

I mean, the lineup is stronger than last year, but if you can't even advance to the first round, does it mean that the reconstruction with Tekken as the core will fail? "

"But he's a rookie."

Robert Guida said.

Ringo Wilson laughed: "No, no, he is the best rookie. At the same time, his performance in the first two games of the playoffs was also amazing. He averaged 22 points, 6.5 rebounds, 10.5 assists and 3.5 steals per game. Is this the rookie's playoff data? ?

No, this is the data of the All-Star, so we can't just negate his strength just because he is a rookie. "

"Linger, you are right." Robert Jeddah nodded.

Ringo Wilson added: "Iron Fist alone can offset the decline of Lambiel and the Assassins, which is why I think the Pistons' lineup is stronger than last season.

But if he can't lead the team to the promotion, I will think it is his failure, and the failure of the Pistons rebuilding. "

Robert Jeddah had been agreeing with his partner's statement, but at this time he retorted: "But Ringer, you can't think that Iron Fist alone can offset the declining strength of Lambiel and Assassin, or even more, just because of the statistics.

In fact, Lambiel's deterrence at the basket is very great. Without him, anyone would dare to attack the Pistons' basket. This is a big loss for the Pistons. You did not count this loss in Inside. "

Lingwell said with a smile: "That's right, but including this, I think Iron Fist can also offset the declining strength of Lambiel and Assassin. After all, he has scored 20+10."

Robert Guida retorted again: "You can't ignore the decline in strength caused by injuries to Rodman and the Assassins, look at their performance in the first two games, you can ignore the impact of this decline on the team No, you can't, the Pistons grabbed 29 fewer rebounds than the Knicks in two games.

What I want to say is that if they play a little better, Rodman can grab 10 or [-] rebounds, the assassin can score [-] points per game, as long as his shooting percentage can reach [-]%, the Knicks have two consecutive Defeated, the Pistons have already won the match point.

So, Ringer, I’m sorry, but I don’t agree with you. I think Tekken’s performance in the first two games, for a rookie, can even match the performance of the Magician in the playoffs in his rookie season. Yes, he won The FMVP playoffs. "
