NBA restricted area bulldozer

Chapter 308 Destined to be the boss?

At the end of the regular season, the top rankings in the Eastern Conference are the Bulls, Eagles, Knicks, and Magic.

Needless to say, the Bulls and Knicks, the current lineup is good in terms of strength and the health of the core players. It is completely expected to get a stable playoff spot.

As for the Eagles, the veteran Wilkins played the bottom line before, and then traded with the Clippers for the younger All-Star player Danny Manning. His record trotted all the way and rushed to the middle of the Bulls and the Knicks.

Only the Orlando Magic, which is fourth in the Eastern Conference, is a bit surprising.

Needless to say, O'Neal, even as a second-year player, his statistics have rushed to the forefront of super centers. In addition, the Magic's luck is really good. They have won the No. [-] pick for two consecutive years, and the No. [-] pick in the second time. Nine's identity was obtained, and the No. [-] pick Webber was exchanged for Tanhua Hardaway and two first-round picks.

It can be expected that the future Magic lineup still has opportunities to strengthen, and the current rookie Hardaway...although not as eye-catching as Webber, but the all-around data of 16 points, 5.4 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 2.3 steals per game still make O'Neal I was so moved that I wanted to cry.

As for the west.

The Jazz's winning percentage dropped slightly in the closing stage, but the foundation laid earlier was so good that the Jazz generals really enjoyed the game. No matter how much they lost, the winning percentage was less than 50%, and no other team could catch up. The top ones, and the following teams are the Supersonics, Rockets, and Spurs.

……

So far, the pattern of the playoffs has basically been set.

Until the last week of the season, the data champions had basically been settled. Li Shengli broke Rodman's monopoly of the rebounding champion, and the blocking champion was basically locked, but the competition for the scoring champion entered a fierce stage. Tragic and abnormal.

At present, Jordan is still the top scorer per game, but unlike in the season, when the Bulls occupy the first place in the East, there is a lot of room for play in many games, and Jordan's scoring has been terrible in recent games, currently averaging 30.52 points per game.

Generally speaking, the statistics of the average score per game will only reach one decimal place, but the reason why Jordan’s average per game is pulled to two decimal places is that the second-ranked general has reached 30.51 points. There is no way to pull it down. Judge high and low.

There is also fierce competition between three or four Malone and O'Neal... Malone's current scoring average has reached 30.4 with the help of Li Shengli, while O'Neal's is 30.5.

The bigger the base, the harder it is to chase the average, and in the 82nd game of the regular season, the anxious atmosphere of competing for the scoring champion really made everyone sweat.

Take Ma Long, who is temporarily fourth, as an example.

He is 0.12 points behind Jordan at the top of the list. In the 82nd game, Malone must score more than 41 points to compete. In fact, 41 points is still a conservative estimate. Assuming that Jordan’s average per game remains unchanged, if Jordan also scored 40 points, Then Malone has to score more than 50 points.

So in the last game, for the four of them, who the opponent is is very important. After all...it will definitely be a little more difficult to score against a strong team, but it is obviously easier to score against a big player who wants to play poorly.

However, the long-established schedule seems to be a joke.

The Spurs led by the general played against the Bucks, the last place in the East, while the Magic led by O'Neal played against the Mavericks, the last place in the West. This team will also allow the general and O'Neal to score an amazing score.

The No.2 Admiral and No.3 O'Neal are very happy, but No.1 Jordan and No.4 Malone obviously have a headache, because the last game... the Jazz and the Bulls met.

I also know that the Bulls will not let Malone get what they want, and the Jazz will not make Jordan comfortable, and this situation makes this game the most watched before the playoffs.

The first Bulls in the East and the No. [-] Jazz in the West. The game between the two teams is like a rematch of last season's finals, and it is also like a preview of this season's finals. The only difference is that...the Jazz has one less Stockton.

……

The final battle.

Utah Jazz vs Chicago Bulls.

During the warm-up before the game, Malone was unusually serious. After all, this game was his last chance to become the scoring champion. Even with the help of Li Shengli, he had to maintain a relatively warm touch, but it was Jordan and Li Shengli on the Bulls side. We met on the sidelines and said a few words.

"Li, do you want to help Malone win my scoring title in this game?" Jordan asked with a smile. Compared with Malone's solemnity, he has a great advantage, because Malone must score 10 points higher than him in this game. Only the above can have a chance to compete.

"Why, are you still afraid of this?" Li Shengli also replied with a smile.

"Afraid, why aren't you afraid." Jordan's answer was unexpected, "Don't you have no points yourself? You have already stood at the forefront of the first echelon in the league now. If you really want to sacrifice your shots to make Malone better, he is more powerful than Robinson and Shaq. I'm more of a threat."

"But...you can't take more from me, not this game, and it's even more impossible to go to other teams in the future." Jordan naturally knew the movement of the Jazz, and he was very concerned about Li Shengli's intentions. I don't worry too much about his whereabouts. After all, a hero and three gangs, Li Shengli's whereabouts are doomed to be helpless.

"That's not necessarily true. I can fight better than everyone else wherever I go!"

"Then give it a try? Seriously, Ewing and those people are waiting for you to leave the Jazz, and I'm really afraid that you will be played by these hooligans until you cry! Everyone in the All-Star Game can still help you, but If you are alone at home..."

"Is this scaring me?" Li Shengli's face turned cold, and he was not targeting Jordan, "You can ask them to come to me and try to touch me. The restricted area is my territory. This has nothing to do with which team I am in. relation."

"The inside of the restricted area is your territory? Coincidentally, everything outside the restricted area is my territory!" Jordan laughed, "Seriously, whenever there is any chance, I would like to draw you to the Bulls, really, trade Anyone can."

"You can stop, let me go to the Bulls to work for you?" Li Shengli pouted and said, "I have to be the boss now. I am always being traded and traded, and I am also very annoying."

"Ha, I'm glad you have this kind of consciousness. Look at your opponents, Olajuwon, Robinson, Ewing, Shaq, and even Mourning. Who is not the boss of the team? Just you, Stay in the Jazz and Malone, Stockton and two people wear a pair of pants."

Jordan patted Li Shengli and said: "If you want to be stable and want to choose by yourself, it's very simple. You can be the boss. You are not in the Hornets. It is the same in the Jazz. It doesn't matter how comfortable you are there, but to be honest. You are not the boss of Utah Shuangsha."

"You...is this provoking our relationship?" Li Shengli shook his head.

"Is this necessary? You have to understand that the Jazz have already given up on you." Jordan shrugged, "Don't be confused, you are not as important to the Jazz as I am to the Bulls. Without you, Jazz Will it become weaker? Obviously not too weak, because the bargaining chips you bought are too rich, and the Jazz is still a championship team, or your boss will definitely be able to collapse Stern with a gun!"

"So...you should understand what I mean, be the boss!"

"I'm already on this path."

"Of course, it is destined!"
