Basketball: starting from the nerve knife
Chapter 205
Chapter 205: The Big Deal at the End of the Season and Li Wan’s Strong Finish
Li Wan spent the first two days of the All-Star Weekend playing soy sauce, and he didn’t even appear in the sidelines of the Rookie Challenge and the “Three Challenges”.
His mentality is actually very simple, two words:
Rest!
This was also carried by him to the third day of the All-Star Weekend.
As the “ticket king”, he only played 11 minutes and 14 seconds in this All-Star main game, and did not shoot much, only 3 times, hit 2 of them, but gave 6 assists, and nothing else.
Media reporters in New York were happy, they thought that Li Wan was deliberately avoiding suspicion and keeping his distance from the “predecessor” of the Lakers.
Knicks fans think the reporters are right…
A reporter asked Li Wan for confirmation, and he smiled and was noncommittal.
The reporters did not pursue further questions.
The end of the All-Star Weekend equals the closing of the free market.
In previous years, at this time, some relatively large transactions usually happen!
This year……
No exception!
First, the Hornets made a deal with the Nets:
The Hornets sent Chris Paul and second-round picks in 2012 and 2014 to the Nets’ 10-year first-round pick Favors, David Lee, and Terrence Williams, the 11th pick in ’09, as well as a 2013 first-round pick.
When this deal appeared, even Li Wan was stunned.
The “butterfly effect” is it coming again?
But if you think about it, the chips given by the Nets are indeed much better than the Clippers’ Eric Gordon, Kaman, Aminu and the 2013 first-round pick.
Carman doesn’t say, although he is an All-Star, he even lost his starter after a serious injury, and the rebuilding team wants such a guy, just to free up salary space.
Eric Gordon, the No. 7 pick in the first round of ’08, is indeed fierce, but it is also really crisp.
Played 78 games in the first season, 65 in the second season, and this season is now reimbursed for the season, and the attendance rate has not even lasted 60 games…
Just this absenteeism rate, it’s scary to watch!
So Aminu can still try to scratch away…
Compared with this set of chips, the Nets’ lineup is obviously much more fragrant, to have the potential of 10 years of No. 3 pick, to have the combat power to average 16.8 points and 8.9 rebounds this season healthy David Lee…
As long as the general manager of the Hornets is not stupid, he will definitely choose to trade with the Nets…
The Billy King deal came as a bit of a surprise to Li Wan.
In his impression, this product should only do loss-making business!
How did this deal come so well…
Could it be that this is the legendary fool who has a fool’s luck?
But before Li Wan could react, another big deal came out.
It’s still about the Nets.
This deal is Li Wan’s familiar “future”.
The Boston Celtics sent Paul Pierce with Kevin Garnett and Glenn Davis, and from the Nets Yi Jianlian, Jordan Hill, Jordan Farmar, Travis Otlow, Devin Harris and a 2012 first-round pick, a 2014 first-round pick, a 2016 first-round pick and a 2018 first-round pick.
Well……
This is Li Wan’s familiar unjust Billy King!
Angie is also really ruthless, and if he catches a stupid fork, he will die in the pit.
However, compared to the original deal, this time may really let Billy Golden Blind Cat run into a dead rat.
You know, the Nets got Pierce and Garnett 2 years earlier than they were.
Originally, the deal took place in 13 years, and now, because of Li Wan, Ray Allen fled Boston, resulting in the early dissolution of the Celtic “Big Three”.
At this time, although Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett are not at their peak, the skinny camel is bigger than the horse!
In the same position, he is still a first-line player…
After their arrival, the Nets formed a starting lineup of No. 1 Chris Paul, No. 2 Anthony Morrow, No. 3 Paul Pierce, No. 4 Kevin Garnett, and No. 5 Lopez.
On the bench, there are also good substitutes such as Chris Humphries and Wilson Chandler, who have not yet married Kim Kardashian.
This season to grind, summer to make up for it, the next two years in the East competitiveness is definitely not bad!
I didn’t see that the evaluation of Billy King by a group of media outside has changed a lot!
Of course, there are also many media bluntly said: the Nets are betting on everything, including the future! Angie has completely squeezed the value of the two veterans!
This also aroused the disgust of the Boston media, who believed that Angie’s operation was equivalent to sending away the “soul” of the Celtics.
Even if Paul Pierce didn’t bring the city a championship, he was fully qualified to retire his jersey for all these years of hard work.
This kind of ruthless and unrighteous practice should not appear in the giant Boston!
“If the cardinal is still there, he will definitely not allow such a thing to happen…”
Angie is dismissive of these sensual sounds…
In his view, a transaction is a transaction, and if the transaction is mixed with feelings, it is destined to be impossible to complete a wonderful transaction. A competent general manager should know that cold-bloodedness is the professionalism that a person sitting in this position should possess …
As long as it’s for the good of the team, Angie can even trade himself!
But these thoughts can only be kept in the mind, can not be spoken, in the face of the reporter, he said: “I talked to Paul and Kevin about this, I also carried out the operation after obtaining their consent, they know the whole process, they have their own way to go, which is why I sent them to the Nets…”
He didn’t know that Chris Paul would be traded to the Nets.
But at this time, you must show “I broke up with him for his good, I hope you can understand me, anyway, they understand me very well!” ”
Plainly:
Dregs!
But there is one thing, he did not lie …
He did call Paul Pierce and talk to him. It turned out to be a hundred million surprises, and it really gave him a cup success, and Paul Pierce agreed.
He agreed, and Kevin Garnett didn’t say a word, followed him to the Nets, and didn’t even use the trade veto.
And after learning that Chris Paul will also come, the two people have no complaints about Angie, and even, full of gratitude!
After all, seeing the “champion dream” that was about to fly away, it flew back!
Angie really thinks about us!
And lo and behold, what is called “being sold, and counting money for it, beautiful snot bubbles” …
At the same time as these two waves of big deals, the Lakers also completed a big deal, they sent Nelson Jr. at No. 1 and J.J. Redick at No. 2, plus Odom, next year’s first-round pick and subsequent second-round pick, and exchanged DeLong Williams from the Jazz for a second-round pick next year!
Once again, this news caused a huge shock!
Los Angeles media direct climax…
Although “Little Fat” is worse than Chris Paul in terms of overall strength, the Lakers also pay less!
Just a little Nelson plus a Redick, and Odom, who has made trouble this season…
As for a first-round pick versus a second-round pick… After this deal is concluded, it is actually not worth much!
At the same time, the Lakers immediately have: No. 1 Delon Williams, No. 2 Kobe, No. 3 Ariza, No. 4 Paul Gasol, No. 5 Bynum Super Team!
It was empty on the bench, and there were no players who could stand up…
But no matter what, this lineup is definitely a lineup that can compete for the championship!
When Li Wan knew the news, he was also a little surprised, but think that since the Nets made a deal with the Hornets, was this leak picked up by the Lakers?
The Jazz handled Delon a bit haphazardly, and the original Nets traded for only Favors, Devin Harris, and 3 million in cash and two first-round picks.
It looks good, but Devin Harris has been seriously injured twice, completely lacking the breakthrough ability of the “Speed Boy” in ’09, and two first-round picks, including a 2013 first-round top 7 protection.
To put it bluntly, Favors has a potential stock, and the others are additions.
Compared with the Lakers’ deal, it’s actually a little underlooking…
You must know that of the two chips of the Lakers, JJ Redick later became the league’s top shooter, but he didn’t have much playing time with the Lakers, so he never played; Nelson Jr. did not suffer a knee injury like the original, just when he was at his best, but he entered the Eastern Conference All-Star in ’09!
In short, the Jazz certainly don’t lose money compared to the original.
But the Lakers definitely earned compared to the original!
With this lineup, the Lakers can maintain the competitiveness of the championship for at least two years.
If you strengthen the bench this summer, then the combat effectiveness …
Next year’s West will be so good!
This is Li Wan’s idea, and David Stern’s idea is:
LeBron, look at the good work you did!
In his small book, he made another note to LeBron…
In addition to these three waves of transactions, before the trading deadline, the alliance also had several transactions, but in comparison, the movement caused was not so big, and they were all small transactions.
Including the Knicks, Donnie Walsh also pressed the whistle to make a trade.
According to Li Wan, 2 years 1.75 million signed Danny Green, who was just waived by the Spurs… The deal was for Li Wan to prepare for Artest’s decline in form.
Donnie Walsh didn’t care about the operation…
During the All-Star Weekend, he went to Salt Lake City several times to invite the old man out of the mountains. At first, it was about assistant coaches, Sloan did not agree, and then Donnie Walsh changed to a special adviser, Sloan still did not agree, and finally invited Sloan to help the team train for two days, but the old man still did not agree.
It can be seen that Delong’s wave of operations really broke his heart…
Li Wan is not disappointed in this.
That’s just an idea.
I really haven’t had much hope!
It has long been prepared with both hands …
He didn’t sign Jerry Sloan, but he got Mike Brown!
When this guy is with the Cavaliers, there may only be one trick on the offensive end:
Give the ball to LeBron.
But on the defensive end, he still has two brushes!
Including later going to the Warriors, Steve Kerr was able to play on the sidelines thanks to his defensive care.
Mike Brown heard about coming to the Knicks as an assistant coach and agreed without saying a word.
Idle is also idle, it is better to come to the Knicks to brush the resume!
February 17.
A few days before the resumption of the regular season.
These stars who changed their flags attended the press conference of their new owners.
One by one, the impassioned appearance of facing the reporters gave the alliance a little more intense smell of gunsmoke.
February 18.
The NBA regular season kicks back on.
The first games after the Knicks All-Star weekend are:
Take on the Los Angeles Clippers on the road.
Danny Green rushed to the Knicks to join the team.
Seeing the future “Zhang Tielin”, Li Wan still had the old way, asking the coaching staff to talk to him and let him focus on defense and catching and shooting.
In terms of ceiling, Danny Green is definitely a notch above Beverley.
This guy is not only capable on the defensive end, but also on the offensive end!
He later broke the Finals record for three-point field goals.
If Ray Allen hadn’t hit that all-time three-pointer, he might have been that year’s Finals MVP…
Of course, it’s good that Ray Allen entered, otherwise, the gold content of this Finals MVP must not be directly killed?
Well, that’s a joke, in fact, by any measure, the Finals MVP is an important measure of a star’s historical status.
Just because Gwyneth Paltrow won the Oscar for “actress”, you can’t think that this award has no weight, right?
For so many years in the NBA, it’s actually quite normal for one or two civilian Finals MVPs to appear…
Because that just proves that the “team” can beat the “superstar”!
Coincidentally, these two players who shaped the direction of the 2013 finals became teammates this time because of Li Wan!
However, as far as Danny Green’s first training with the team is concerned, it is not very ideal, and it will be some time before he is at his peak. Li Wan was not surprised.
Popovich is a ruthless person who picks up “gold” in the “garbage heap”, and most of the role players in the Spurs team have left the Spurs and will definitely not be able to mix in the league. Only Popovich can spot one or two sparkles in this player and use them.
The player who makes him give up is, naturally, worthless…
Fortunately, Li Wan knows the upper limit of this guy, so he is not in a hurry at all!
Take your time, I didn’t expect him to do anything this season…
Soon, the time for the game came.
As an opponent they had just faced, the Knicks coaching staff was familiar with this opponent and easily took away the victory from the Clippers.
Griffin cut 24 points, 13 rebounds and 4 assists in this game, but he was still powerless, and he could only watch the team lose 24 points!
Speaking of…
Chris Paul is not coming to the Clippers, and it should be beneficial to Griffin…
After all, this guy has organizational talents!
Later, he also parted ways with Chris Paul because of the ball.
He felt he could be the team’s “playmaker”!
Now, both Paul and DeLong have just changed teams…
The Clippers really can’t find a better instant power on the outside than Mo Williams and Gordon. It seems that such a “playmaker” Blake Griffin may really appear!
Coupled with the growth of Gordon and others, Li Wan is still looking forward to what this “Youth Army” Clippers team will become…
It was also at this moment that Li Wan felt…
This should be called the “butterfly effect”!
In the first game after the All-Star weekend, Li Wan successfully cut down 24 points, 12 rebounds and 8 assists.
And then it was out of control:
February 20, 25 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists “triple-double”;
February 22, 27 points, 12 rebounds and 7 assists;
February 23, 21 points, 14 rebounds and 8 assists;
February 25, 25 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists “triple-double”;
February 27, 26 points, 13 rebounds and 8 assists;
……
Cut “2 doubles” in 6 consecutive games, including 2 “triple-doubles”!
What makes people a little laughable is that these 6 “2-doubles” are all rebounds, but the number of assists has not reached 10 in 4 games.
The reason is also very simple, he deliberately put a little effort into rebounding in the past two days.
He averaged 25.4 points, 10.4 rebounds and 11.8 assists per game in November;
In December, he averaged 25.6 points, 9.8 rebounds and 11.4 assists per game;
In January, he averaged 41.3 points, 8.6 rebounds and 10.4 assists;
It can be seen from this data that if Li Wan wants to “season triple-double”, there is no big problem in scoring and assisting.
It’s a lot worse than rebounding!
After the All-Star Break, although there are still 2 months to go, there are still 32 games. Gotta work on the rebound.
This is also the reason why Li Wan’s rebounds have been above 10 after the All-Star weekend.
With this wave of power, Li Wan’s average data in February is:
26.4 points, 10.5 rebounds and 10.6 assists;
Another “monthly average of triple-doubles”!
After February, Li Wan’s current average per game is:
29.7 points, 9.8 rebounds and 11.1 assists!
With 0.2 rebounds left behind the average of rebounds per game, you can unlock the “season average triple-double” achievement.
Other words……
Next month, I’ll have to make sure I’m averaging at least 10.9 rebounds per game…
It’s still a little difficult!
It’s good that he has Ka Feng here!
But Li Wan now has a question:
How Westbrook managed to brush for 5 seasons in a row.
This season alone, he brushed it out a little boring!
Is it possible that “brushing and brushing will get used to it”?
……
On March 1, the New York Knicks are home to the Nets, who made a big trade over the All-Star weekend.
It has to be said that although the two deals of Billy King overdrew the future of the entire team, they did allow this team to rise rapidly.
Chris Paul plus Pierce and Garnett and Lopez, it’s almost seamless…
Compared to DeLong Williams, everyone has to admit that Chris Paul in this period is obviously more driven.
After the All-Star weekend, the team has lost just one of their current six games.
In the other five races, they all won the final game.
The momentum is the same as that of the Knicks.
As far as their momentum is concerned, if they keep going, they may not be able to “overtake in corners” and squeeze into the playoffs at the last minute!
But in the face of this opponent, who is likely to meet in the playoffs, D’Antoni chose to take his turn.
The season comes March, and the New York Knicks are already 10 wins ahead of the second-place Bulls in the East.
The advantages are obvious…
It’s all about the playoffs!
Again, so far, the New York Knicks have lost a total of 7 games, and still have a chance to equal or even break the best regular season record of 72-10 set by the Chicago Bulls that year…
A lot of media are hyping up this matter!
Among them, some face-saving New York media are also constantly advocating that the Knicks should rush to break the regular season record…
D’Antoni is showing his attitude by arranging his rotation:
I don’t care what history you have, our goal is only the championship!
Dayao rests.
Faced with the fierce Nets, relying on Li Wan alone, they could not hold on to the home victory, losing the game 103-109 and 6 points.
Li Wan scored 25 points, 15 rebounds, 15 assists and 3 steals in this game, did his best, and got a “triple-double” in the first game in March, and even exaggerated “25 plus 15 plus 15″…
However, the opposite side played very well:
Chris Paul 18 points and 9 assists; Paul Pierce 18 points and 5 rebounds; Kevin Garnett 15 points and 7 rebounds; Lopez 16 points, 11 rebounds…
Li Wan “two fists are difficult to defeat with eight hands”, and can only watch the opposite side leave with victory.
After winning the New York Knicks, the Nets gang is significantly more confident.
Chris Paul said bluntly: “Nothing can stop us!” ”
Paul Pierce said: “We will be the biggest contender for the championship this season, even if we have just formed, but it does not affect our tacit cooperation, in fact, we will get stronger!” ”
Even Lopez said: “This season, we will break through the past…”
Like the Nets, there are also the Lakers.
The arrival of Delon Williams has given the team an extra ball carrier, and his blocking with Pau Gasol can completely empty the defense on one side, giving Kobe Bryant absolute singles space.
The team also didn’t have much to run into, so they quickly found a tacit understanding, and after the All-Star weekend, they only lost 2 games, and they continued to maintain, and they have a good chance of returning to the top four!
In short, before the free market closed, the two teams that caused a lot of movement were not surprisingly “spoilers” at the end of the season.
On March 2, the league announced the various awards for February.
Finally, some players snatched the “Player of the Month Award” from Li Wan’s hands.
It was none other than Derek Ross!
The guy averaged 27.6 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists per game throughout February, and Thibodeau cleared up the Bulls’ defensive end so he could get more involved in the offense.
In February, the “roses” bloom more and more brightly.
Under his leadership, the Bulls came all the way to end their February journey with a 12-2 record.
Finally snatched the “best of the month” from Li Wan’s hands once!
In fact, just talking about the data performance in February, Li Wan still faintly suppressed Ross.
But Ross is indeed good enough this season, and it is estimated that the official feels that such a guy has to give the “best of the month” more or less!
No, even if Ross won the Eastern Conference’s Player of the Month award.
On the regular season MVP list, Li Wan still firmly occupies the first position.
Western’s “Player of the Month award” changed hands again.
This time it belongs to Kobe!
Before the All-Star weekend, Kobe Bryant was in very good shape in February, averaging 28.9 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists per game, and after the All-Star weekend, the arrival of Delon Williams made his statistics decline, averaging only 24.5 points, 5 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game in 6 games.
11 wins and 4 losses, one of the best teams in the West in February…
In addition, Kobe Bryant has not won the “best of the month” this season, so the official does not hesitate.
With Li Wan’s victory in 09, Novitsky’s 10-year “consecration”, and the league has re-entered the period of “warlord chaos”, Kobe’s throne as the first man has long been unstable, and the official training of new people must also consolidate the status of the elderly.
This is what David Stern has always done.
In this way, the entire alliance can watch “a hundred flowers bloom”!
On March 3, the New York Knicks faced the Warriors, Li Wan once again cut 33 points, 16 rebounds and 11 assists of the “big triple-double”, this game Li Wan was not in good condition at the beginning, but who let the Warriors’ backcourt is Curry and Monta Ellis?
Suddenly, Li Wan found his feeling, and after three or two strokes, he solved the Warriors even more cheerfully.
Other than that……
It has to be the Warriors!
This fast-paced confrontation is not at all, and the increase in the number of rounds has also allowed Li Wan to easily “brush” a season high of 16 rebounds.
At the same time, it is also a new career high!
After the game, Li Wan looked at the data table and couldn’t help but have a thought:
If only every night the opponent was the Warriors!
Curry was a bit bad tonight, shooting just 1 of 7 from three-pointers. If you want to express yourself too much, the worse you will behave.
That’s what happened with Curry tonight.
March 5.
The New York Knicks met the Celtics for the third time of the season.
It was also the last encounter of the season.
Every time they meet, the Celtics will change drastically because of Li Wan, so the Celtics are panicked…
I don’t know who is going to be unlucky again this time!
Li Wan said hello to Yi Jianlian before the game.
In the end, he did not escape the fate of being sold by the Nets…
However, compared to being sent out directly, this time it is a bargaining chip, which proves that he is very different from the original.
At present, it is the second year that Yi Jianlian has changed to the “space-type No. 4 position”.
The arrival of David Lee exploited his living space with the Nets.
The average playing time dropped from more than 30 minutes to 19.5 minutes per game, so his average this season was not very ideal, but he also reached 8.8 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists.
39.8% three-point shooting!
It’s still quite marketable.
Even if the Celtics don’t plan to keep him, don’t worry about it this summer!
The New York Knicks continued their rotation in this game, with Artest and Ray Allen both on the inactive roster.
Li Wan also rarely played a “Huaxia OK” game with Dayao.
Boston’s strength was also limited, and it collapsed before the second quarter was finished.
In the end, Li Wan scored 24 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists…
Working with Dayao is easy, but there is one problem:
It really affects Li Wanbrush data too much!
So, like Michael Jordan, they ran to the “small-ball era” and averaged 40 points per game at their peak, which is really no joke.
The later era of the “data explosion”, in part, was entirely due to the increase in the number of rounds per match… Or why are there so many, it’s quite a good to say the data, but if you really want to mention the performance of the game, it’s hard to say a star!
The Knicks’ first loss in March came on March 10.
They lost to the Lakers who visited Madison Square Garden…
The old rule, this game, D’Antoni took turns to rest Dayao again…
The reason for this game break is quite simple, although the Lakers are fierce, but in the playoffs, it is really not necessarily encountered.
There is no need to fight with such a team…
So……
This became another game for Li Wan to brush up on data.
Constantly setting off a wave of fast attacks, his final statistics were fixed at 35 points, 15 rebounds, 15 assists and 2 steals… The terrifying “35 plus 15 plus 15”.
Li Wan didn’t know how he brushed out these data!
Anyway, after the game, he looked at his data sheet and wrote these numbers.
But look at the final score of this game, 121 to 115…
The balls are in his hands again…
It’s normal to brush up on such data!
Bryant scored 24 points in this game, Delon Williams had 18 points and 11 assists in this game, and Paul Gasol had 16 points and 11 rebounds…
The only one who doesn’t have much presence is Bynum.
Even without Yao, the Knicks’ No. 5 position includes Kwame Brown and Shaq O’Neal.
Two men packed him up.
In the end, the game ended with only 7 points and 5 rebounds.
Shaq O’Neal, a guy, has played two guys all season, one is Howard and the other is Bynum.
Well……
Just say how careful this guy is!
From this game, Kobe still has a certain sacrifice, in order to make Delon Williams play more comfortable, Kobe Bryant runs without the ball more often.
However, his catch-and-shoot shooting percentage is really exaggerated, as high as 54.3%!
If you calculate the real shooting percentage, you are about to catch up with the shooting percentage of Li Wan’s mid-range jumper after blocking.
Also……
Bryant’s mid-range jump shooting ability must be above 90.
The ability to catch and shoot is basically at the All-Star level.
This ability value, catching up with Li Wan is not a big deal!
And he doesn’t catch the ball as many times as he does…
Kobe Bryant is more of a ball single.
It is not uncommon for the sample to be small and the hit rate to be high!
It was also his sacrifice that Delong Williams played calmly after coming to the Lakers.
However, at the critical moment, the ball was still in Kobe’s hands, and Delon didn’t have much opinion about it.
In terms of character, he is not as extreme as Chris Paul.
Of course, this team is not without problems, Bynum is one of them, and the other is on the bench.
In order to save money, Kupchak traded Jordan Farmar and Vujasić, and now Odom is also gone, and there is still a Fisher on the bench, which is really not good!
In this game, the Knicks were able to drag the point difference until the last minute without Dayao, and even overtook the score at one point during the period, because their bench was weak.
With this loss, the Knicks have lost eight games this season.
The New York media was a little anxious and began to pressure D’Antoni to keep rotating players, giving an example: “In the 90s, when was there a rotation break!” ”
When Li Wan saw these reports from the New York media, he rolled his eyes.
This is one of the reasons why the Knicks have been rotten for so many years.
Fans and media in other cities are all in one place. If the New York Knicks’ record happened to any other team right now, I’m afraid the city’s media and fans would be crazy.
Only New York!
Of course, after Li Wan’s tuning, New York fans are not so impetuous… But this New York media, as always, is still confused, and is “helping” there!
They want an absolutely perfect team, perfect enough to break all the records before they can be willing!
But if in the end, because of breaking the record, the team has physical problems and does not win the championship, they will also jump out and scold the most fierce group of people…
Most importantly, Li Wan couldn’t do anything about it!
New York fans make a fuss again, Li Wan scored 83 points a game, and everyone who should kneel is also kneeling!
New York Media…
It has always been the Lord who watches the excitement and does not worry about the big deal!
In the face of these own doubts, Li Wan’s way is also very simple, that is, to stand up and support D’Antoni’s decision: “Our record is enough for us to enter the playoffs with the first ranking in the league, Mike’s approach, is also for this team to play better in the playoffs, to be honest, than to break the league’s regular season record, I want to bring this team a championship trophy that has not been touched in 41 years, or that sentence, I came to New York to make basketball mecca, worthy of the name!” ”
The ultimate mystery of the special move…
Sincere!
As soon as these words came out, Li Wan did not need to deal with this group of media, and New York fans spontaneously rushed these media who were clamoring to break the NBA best regular season record, and some comments that greeted family members and reflected good quality could be seen on the official websites of major media.
The “hardest spear” met the “hardest shield”, and in the end, it turned out that it was more terrifying for New York fans to go crazy, and this New York media instigated …
Never mention breaking the Bulls’ record…
Without the interference of external pressure, D’Antoni methodically arranged his rotation, and before the end of March, the Knicks lost two more games.
The number of defeats is officially 10.
Now the only chance left for the New York Knicks is “to tie the record in regular season history.”
This time, Levan and Knicks did not disappoint the New York media.
In the seven games in April, they all won neatly…
In the end, the record of the New York Knicks in the 10~11 season was fixed at 72-10, tying the best record in history created by the Bulls in the 95~96 season.
Although it failed to set a new record, to be honest, it was already shocking to the outside world to be able to equalize this record.
No, when the New York Knicks won the last game of the season on April 15, many media labeled this team as “the strongest in history”!
At least in terms of record, they are on par with the Bulls.
Now it’s up to this team to win the championship as strongly as the Bulls… That year, the Bulls, who won 72-10, won the final championship after losing only 3 games in the playoffs, and the performance was “cosmic”!
Many media outlets don’t think the New York Knicks can maintain this momentum in the playoffs.
It’s not that they underestimate this team…
With a 72-10 regular season record, who dares to underestimate it?
It’s just that the fighting power of other teams this season is also good, and the Bulls, who finished second in the East, and the Heat, who ranked third, are not easy to mess with!
The Spurs and Mavericks in the West are also good.
Not to mention, there are two “galaxy battleships” that appeared after the All-Star weekend, the Lakers and the Nets…
There are too many fierce people!
Although the New York Knicks are 72-10, the reasons for this are varied, not to mention the two newly formed teams, and the Heat have also experienced a long period of running-in before slowly showing their strength.
Otherwise, the New York Knicks want to take 72-10 difficulty, I am afraid that it will rise a lot!
In an interview after the final game of the season, Li Wan was asked “how much you think you can win the championship by losing a few games in the playoffs.”
Li Wan gave the answer with a smile: “If I think so, we will win the final championship with a complete victory!” ”
It’s a joke…
He had thought that the reporters would burst out laughing.
But what Li Wan didn’t expect was that after he finished speaking, he saw a stunned expression, as if asking: You, do you really want to do this, or…
Just look at history and look at how hard it is to win all the playoffs, no team has ever done anything like this!
The “OK combination” in 01 was the closest, but also lost 1 game …
This is also the reason why Allen Iverson that year made many fans “love for life”!
But……
Even if it’s hard!
When Li Wan said it, some of these reporters took it seriously!
They really thought that Li Wan was going to do this, and they really thought that Li Wan could do it…
Who let Li Wan do something surprising since he entered the alliance?
In the first game of the playoffs in the rookie season, he played a new high for the rookie in the playoff debut, and directly knocked the veteran Pistons down in the second round, finally allowing the Magic to reach the Eastern Conference Finals after 14 years;
In the second season of his career, he went one step further and helped the team win the first championship in team history;
In the third season, seeing that he was about to miss the playoffs for the first time in his career, he was stunned to “overtake on a corner”, entered the playoffs, and even played “black eight”…
Three years of career, worst result in the Eastern Conference finals…
Not to mention individual performances, this season has repeatedly reached new highs:
The 83 points in a single game surpassed Kobe Bryant, becoming the second-highest player in NBA history for single-game points.
And after playing the last game of the season, he broke another dusty 51-year record:
Season triple-double!
Yes……
After playing in February, Li Wan, who was still 0.2 rebounds short of his average data per game, made efforts in March and grabbed fourteen or five rebounds at every turn, and finally the average number of rebounds per game in March was a terrifying 12.4!
And he ended up four or five games ahead of schedule and locked up a three-double for the season. He became another player to complete this achievement since “Big O”.
In addition to this achievement, Li Wan also beat Kevin Durant with an average of 30.8 points per game to win the final “scoring king” of the season.
That’s 0.4 fewer assists per game, “only” 11 assists per game, ranking third in the league, behind Steve Nash with 11.4 assists per game and Rajon Rondo with 11.2 assists per game.
But there is no way, he wants too much this season, and in April, because he competed with Kevin Durant for the “scoring king”, he brushed several games of points, and was destined to “lose one over the other”!
But such Li Wan is also strong enough, otherwise, how could the reporters be stunned because of his sentence “If I think so, we will win the final championship with a complete victory”?
People who have played this kind of performance this season, there is still such a strong team behind them, I am afraid that he said that is fragrant, and these reporters will also taste it with skepticism, whether it is fragrant or not…
