The China Power of NBA

In the recent games, all the teams lost by a big score. As the leaders and captains of the team, Paul and West gathered all the players of the team together, except for Okafor and Gray who were still in the hospital. Ariza, Thornton, Belinelli, Marx, Brykins, Sangueira, Ponderset, Peja Stojakovic, Bai Xiaofei and others all came to the arena and sat around Under the basket, but only one person is missing, Iverson.

"Everyone knows," Paul raised his black-rimmed glasses. He is not short-sighted, but when he is not playing, he always wears a black framed eye for decoration, which is different from other players in the NBA. As a black man, Paul had a very fulfilling and loving childhood. When he was a child, Paul’s family was well-off, and he received a very good education since he was a child. Although Paul was full of passion and desire to win when he was playing on the court, but Off the court, Paul is a very gentle man, and there are very few negative news about Paul's points in the NBA.

"Everyone knows that the team has fallen into the swamp of failure recently, and it is getting deeper and deeper. We can't go on like this forever. We have to find a way to get the team on the right track. Today, West and I called everyone Together, I want everyone to speak freely. There is no management or other people sitting here today. There are only brothers who are united and struggling together. As long as they can speak from the perspective of the interests of the team, they are all Good speeches, we welcome, I don't want this meeting to be a blank check, I want to find out the current problem of the team, and then change it, now everyone talk about your own thoughts."

"Do you need to ask?" Briggins looked at Bai Xiaofei, who was bowing his head, and said disdainfully, "The team has suffered a series of disastrous defeats. Whoever is sitting here is responsible for these disastrous defeats? We don’t need to say it out, for the sake of being a newcomer, give me some face.”

Peja said: "The team's consecutive large-scale losses are not the responsibility of one of us here, but all of us are responsible. Brykins, do you think you are playing well?"

"Hmph, at least better than some people." Briggins glanced at Bai Xiaofei again, and said disdainfully, "Let me play three to 10 minutes per game, at least a double-double."

"Okay, okay, I know you guys are putting all the blame for the loss on the newcomer Bai." Ster said, "Today is Bai's sixth day in the team. It is already very good to be able to play like this. We shouldn't put the pressure of losing on a rookie. We should find the reason from ourselves."

Max took out a few pieces of paper from his bag and looked at them. Max is 35 years old this year. From a physical point of view, he can no longer play games. He should retire after winning the final $200 million contract this year. Even so, Marx is still playing the value of a veteran. I saw Marx looked at the accompanying paper and said,

"This is what I asked for from Manson. Our technical statistics in these games, from the opening games, we averaged 91.6 points per game, ranked 26th in the league, and conceded 96.5 points per game. Ranked 19th in the league, with a loss ratio of minus 4.9 points, 24th in the league, 41.8% shooting, 23rd in the league, 36.1% three-point shooting, 12th in the league, 15.8 assists per game, Ranked 24th in the league, averaged 42.8 rebounds per game, and ranked 20th in the league. The only thing we entered the top ten in the league in terms of statistics was the control of turnovers per game, which was 15.2 times, ranking tenth in the league. , We are not doing well enough in terms of points per game, field goal percentage, assists per game and rebounds per game."

"I'm surprised," said Belinelli, "We have Paul, a top point guard in the league who averaged nearly 10 assists per game, and the team's assists per game are the sixth worst in the league." This means that our players fight more alone and cooperate less, which is a problem we should solve.”

"It's Iverson who fights alone," Thornton said with a disgruntled expression on his face when he mentioned this incident, "He has the biggest card in the team, who can talk to him!"

"I'll talk to him about this!" Paul frowned slightly, and said, "Everyone is united here for one goal—the championship. For the team's final victory, everyone must make a contribution. Corresponding sacrifices, I am like this, David is like this, Iverson should be like this! I believe that Iverson is not an ignorant person!"

"Shorton, don't talk about others, it's basically Iverson on the court!" Sangaila said with a light smile. Sangaila is almost 33 years old this year. He should also take care of his life, so he didn't care too much about the outcome of the game.

"Our basketball control is good," Marx continued, "but it is limited to defensive rebounds. Our offensive rebounds are only 10.8 per game, ranking 23rd in the league. This data shows that our interior is active in terms of rebounding. It’s still not enough, you don’t need to talk about others, Briggins. As the youngest and most talented player in the team except for the newcomer Bai, your 36-minute average is only 9.8 points and 6.5 rebounds. Not to mention letting you play three or 10 minutes, even if you play 36 minutes, you can't get a double-double. Although your rebound rate is 13.2, the team ranks third after Okafor and Gray, but your The true shooting percentage is only 41.7%. Do you know what the concept is? No one in the team is worse than you. Even I am [-] percentage points higher than you. Most of your offensive rebounds are yours. If you miss the shot and block the opponent's shots and increase the stats in vain, you have the nerve to criticize others!"

Brykins lowered his head and said nothing.

Marx continued, "The overall performance of the team is inseparable from the performance of each player in the team. From the perspective of player efficiency, there are only three people who exceed the league average, Paul, Ariza and Ivor. Sen, are 23.19,16.52, 16.01 and 10 respectively. In terms of efficiency value, there are four people who exceed 48. They are Paul, Ariza Iverson and West. It is pulling the team's hind legs. Regarding the problem of the team fighting alone, in fact, there is no need to focus all the contradictions on Iverson alone. The data shows that Iverson's possession time per 14.8 minutes is 17.6 Minutes, less than Paul's 17.3 minutes, less than West's 15 minutes, even less than Ariza's 12.2 minutes, this data Thornton is 32.1 minutes, not much less. In terms of assist rate, Paul is still the first , 20.0% chance to create scoring opportunities for teammates, ranking second is Iverson, 55.9%, so Iverson is not as bad at passing as you can see, but compared to his passing Give the ball to someone else, and he will be more sure of attacking himself. Iverson's true shooting percentage is 57.2%, which is second only to Paul's [-]% in the team."

"Marx brought us a series of very good data, so now I think we understand a lot," Paul said, "Our team has a good three-point shooting rate, and we must try to create three-point shots next. Opportunity, except for Iverson and Thornton, others try to minimize breakthroughs, Bai Xiaofei and West are still partnered inside, Bai Xiaofei does not need you to contribute a lot in scoring, I hope you can help the team on the rebound, not only Just for yourself, but also for West, who is the focus of the interior offense, and I hope you can share the pressure on his defensive end."

Bai Xiaofei, who was silent in the audience, slowly raised his head, looked at Paul, and remained silent for a long time.

"Perform well, young man," said West, who patted Bai Xiaofei on the shoulder and said, "You have two opponents left on your ten-day short contract, and they are the Oklahoma City Thunder tonight. With the Philadelphia 76ers, I hope you can play well in the next two games and add chips to your next contract!"

Max put away the materials, looked at Bai Xiaofei and said, "Young man, you still have a lot of potential that hasn't been realized. I hope you don't lose confidence. I should also try my best to play it well. 1998-1999 was my rookie season. In that year, I played eight times in the Toronto Raptors jersey. I averaged only 3.5 minutes per game, and I was able to get 1.4 points and 0.1 rebounds. , In fact, in my second season in the NBA, my average playing time dropped to 2.4 minutes per game, and the data was 1.6 points and 0.4 rebounds. At that time, I was just like you and could be cut by the team at any time. I lack a lot of sense of security, worry all day long, have no self-confidence, don't know where my future is, I am very afraid of going to sleep, and I am afraid that I will be cut by the team when I wake up the next day, but now, I Been in the league for 13 seasons and honestly, from the moment I first stepped on the NBA floor, I never thought I would be in the NBA, the best basketball league in the world After 13 years of hard work, although the statistics are not impressive and there are no dazzling achievements, I am still proud of myself."

Holding the basketball behind Max in his hand, he handed it to Bai Xiaofei and said, "Basketball will never abandon you. Only when you leave will you miss those playing times. That's what I think. What about you..."
