am i proud?

Chapter 266
The 2003-2004 season finally came to an end, and Wang Dalin immediately received a reward.

Although the league has not announced awards such as regular season MVP, DPOY, and best team, the individual data kings have naturally been freshly released after the end of the season.

With averages of 36.9 points, 14.7 rebounds and 10.1 assists per game, Wang Dalin won the three titles of scoring champion, rebounding champion and assists champion in one fell swoop.

Last year, he had already won the scoring and assists titles, so he could not get rewards for these two items. However, it was the first time for him to be the rebounding champion, and he could get a reward of +5 relative to his ability.

Regarding the ability value of rebounds, that is offensive rebounds and defensive rebounds. After these two items are +5, plus the addition of "the strongest second master badge" and "rebound wrist guard", he now has 100 offensive rebounds and 98 defensive rebounds.

However, the full value of all abilities is only 99, so his offensive rebounds are now full 99, and his defensive rebounds are 98... only 1 point away from reaching full value.

He averaged a triple-double this season. He had hoped to win the "Secret Action Badge" award. Unfortunately, the Clippers' winning percentage was only 64.6%, not 70%, so he could only pass this award regrettably.

Fortunately, with his defensive data of 2.3 steals and 2.6 blocks per game this season, coupled with the important data support of his rebounding leader, it will be a sure thing to be selected for the best defensive team, so as long as he waits for a while, he can get the reward of "inside defense +3, outside defense +3".

Also, his total score this season has reached an astonishing 3029 points, which is also the highest total score in a season since Michael Jordan's 1986-1987 season, and currently ranks fifth in history.

排在他前面的只有张伯伦（1961-1962赛季4029分）、（1962-1963赛季3586分）、（1960-1961赛季3033分）和乔丹（1986-1987赛季的3041分）。

This data also added another important weight to his title of "League No. 1". Now the entire North American sports world has already believed that Wang Dalin will be [-]% reelected as the regular season MVP of this season.

Wang Dalin himself thought so, and he didn't believe that the league would award this award to other people.

场均36.9分、14.7篮板、10.1助攻2.3抢断2.6助攻，投篮命中率60.1%，三分命中率50.4%，罚球命中率90.3%……就这数据，联盟里还有谁能比？

Looking at the entire history of the NBA, apart from those data monsters in the "ancient times", where else can be compared with him?

If it wasn't for the fact that the neighbors around him couldn't understand Chinese, Wang Dalin would have stood on his balcony and yelled a few times—"And...is there...who!"

With the end of the regular season, the playoff table has also been freshly released.

东部这边分别是步行者（1）对凯尔特人（8）、热火（4）对黄蜂（5）、活塞（3）对雄鹿（6）、篮网（2）对尼克斯（7）。

西部这边分别是森林狼（1）对灰熊（8）、国王（4）对快船（5）、马刺（3）对小牛（6）、湖人（2）对勇士（7）。

The eastern side is strong and weak, and the strongest players are nothing more than the Pacers, Pistons and Nets, and other teams are not enough.

It's a pity that the 76ers... There was a time when they fought several games against the Lakers in the finals. It's been less than 4 years, and they didn't even make the playoffs!
……

The first round of the playoffs began on April 4, and there were only 17 games on the first day, namely the Pacers vs. Celtics, Nets vs. Knicks, Lakers vs. Warriors, and Spurs vs. Mavericks.

The strength of the two games in the Eastern Conference was too clear, so Wang Dalin didn't pay attention, but just sent Carlisle a text message of congratulations.

The two games in the west are a bit interesting.

The first is the Lakers vs. Warriors... Just a year ago, the Lakers beat the Warriors in the Western Conference semifinals in last year's playoffs to advance to the Western Conference Finals.

However, it was not easy for them to win last year. The two sides fought until the tiebreaker. In the end, the Lakers only relied on their richer experience in the playoffs to pass the risk.

After a year, Billups, Yao Ming, Jamison, Richardson and others made a comeback. One can imagine what kind of resentment they have towards the Lakers?

The game was played in the dark, with the two sides taking the lead alternately more than a dozen times. Kobe, O'Neal, Billups and Yao Ming showed their true superstar demeanor.

Last year, Yao Ming was completely at a disadvantage against O'Neal, so there is no way... Even if the other three are as strong as the "Four Major Centers of the 90s", only Olajuwon can compete with the peak O'Neal, and everyone else can only be completely suppressed by him.

However, after a year, Yao Ming's progress in all aspects is visible to the naked eye. In the regular season, he averaged 19.3 points, 11.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 0.3 steals and 2.1 blocks per game. Now he can be called the "second center in the Western Conference"!

Except for the "Shark" O'Neal who is still at the end of his peak, who else can compare with him at the center position?

In fact, since the past two years, the shortage of excellent centers in the entire league has become more and more serious. Even O'Neal is the only center in the league who can average 20+10 per game... The Pacers' starting center this season is Jeff Foster, and Jermaine O'Neal is more often a power forward.

If O'Neal is counted among the power forwards, Yao Ming can even be called "the second center in the league"!
此役姚铭砍下全场最高的31分14篮板4助攻2盖帽，与砍下29分15篮板3助攻3盖帽的奥尼尔完全形成了互爆之势。

Wang Dalin also did not expect that Yao Ming would be able to kill O'Neal evenly in his second season... In this life, his growth rate is indeed much faster than in the original history!
Some people say that Jeff Van Gundy made the peak Yao Ming, and it was he who destroyed the peak Yao Ming. This kind of statement actually has some truth, but it is not absolute.

In fact, before Yao Ming gained too much weight, his footwork around the basket was very flexible, and his speed was not even slower than many black big men. It was just that he was too thin in his rookie season, and his ability to fight against the basket was indeed weak.

In the second season, they met the Lakers with the "F4 combination" in the first round of the playoffs. Yao Ming really couldn't compete with O'Neal at that time.

所以在那轮系列赛中他的表现很有点拉胯，场均只有15分7.4篮板1.8助攻0.4抢断1.4盖帽，投篮命中率也只有45.6%。

The shooting percentage of 45.6% can be called good if it is placed on a defender, but Yao Ming is an inside player, and this shooting percentage is indeed too low.

But then again...is there really no way he can play better?
You must know that the core point guard of the Rockets at that time was the "boss" with a unique style of play, and his personal offensive and defensive efficiency was very low. In the regular season, his shooting percentage was only 40.3%. Even so, he still enjoyed the highest number of shots in the Rockets team.

To put it bluntly, if his average shots per game were replaced by Yao Ming, Yao Ming would have averaged more than 19 points per game that season.

Of course, playing time also limits Yao Ming's ability to perform better in terms of statistics. His average playing time is only 32.8 minutes per game, while "Boss Vladimir" has 40.4 minutes!

So since Van Gundy coached the Rockets in the 2003-2004 season, he has been asking Yao Ming to continue to gain weight until the 2005-2006 season when he finally entered the peak of his career.

That season Yao Ming's weight reached over 140KG, which really made him unrivaled in the paint, but is it really necessary?

In the 2005-2006 season, O'Neal was 34 years old, and he had long since lost his courage. Even if Yao Ming didn't gain weight, he would no longer be afraid of this "old shark".

For an O'Neill who is about to age, Shengsheng increased his weight by nearly 10KG. From the perspective of Wang Dalin's future generations, this behavior is completely worth the candle.

So Van Gundy did make the peak Yao Ming, but he did destroy the peak Yao Ming... If Yao Ming didn't weigh so much, how could he have suffered so many injuries?

He played 82 games in the first two seasons in the NBA, and only missed 2 games in the third season. However, since the fourth season, he has been in a state of on-and-off for a long time. Except for 2008 games in the 2009-77 season, the highest in other seasons is only 58 games.

仔细计算一下，姚铭从2005-2006赛季起，6个赛季里整整缺席了245场比赛，其中2009-2010赛季直接赛季报销，2010-2011赛季也是只打了5场就赛季报销了。

If Yao Ming didn't have that much weight, with his floor-flowing style of play, he wouldn't be able to say that he would be able to play full time in the past few seasons. At least there would be much fewer absences due to injuries, and his career would be much longer.

Yao Ming in this life is undoubtedly much luckier than in the original history. First of all, he did not meet Jeff Van Gundy, the "culprit", and secondly, he "avoided" the relatively selfish "Boss Frank".

In the Warriors, he has an excellent core point guard like Billups passing the ball to him, and excellent scorers like Jamison and Richardson are beside him... If he is still like the original history, Wang Dalin will probably doubt his quality as a "super center".

Yao Ming did not gain too much weight last season and this season, but kept his weight to about 135KG. Although his confrontation ability is not comparable to his peak in time and space, he can make up for this deficiency with more flexible footwork at the basket and excellent shooting ability.

The reason why he was able to form a mutual explosion with O'Neal in this game is mainly because of his precise mid-range shot... If he really wants to fight O'Neal at the basket, he will definitely not be able to beat it.

The Warriors defeated the Lakers 108:99 in this game.

The main reason why they won this game was not that Yao Ming and O'Neal formed a mutual explosion, nor was it that Billups and Richardson teamed up to limit Kobe's shooting percentage to about 40%. The main reason was that the Lakers couldn't defend Jamison!

Karl Malone's defensive experience is very rich. In the original history, he even restrained "Deng Daida" in the Western Conference Finals, but he really couldn't restrain Jamison!

No matter how powerful Duncan is, his main means of attack is still inside storming, but Jamison is different, he can shoot from a longer distance, and his feet move faster.

After all, Ma Long is a veteran who is about to turn 41 years old. No matter how powerful he is, he is still quite old. It is true that he "cannot eat".

If he was one or two years younger, how could old Malone not be able to defend against a mere Jamison?

On the offensive end, he can still score some points by relying on the mid-range shot after the pick-and-roll, but on the defensive end... To put it bluntly, he was the main culprit for the Lakers' loss in this game!

贾米森本场比赛14投8中，其中三分球3投1中，罚球4投3中，砍下20分7篮板3助攻2抢断，表现完全盖过了只得到8分6篮板的马龙。

当然，“二哥”比卢普斯也表现非常出色……此役他全场14投7中，其中三分球5投2中，罚球7投7中，得到了全队第二高的23分，还贡献出5个篮板、5次助攻和2次抢断。

Some people are born with a "big heart", even if they refuse to accept it!
The second-ranked Lakers in the West were defeated by the Warriors who ranked seventh in the West in their first game. It was a small upset, but the third-ranked Spurs and the sixth-ranked Mavericks in the Western Conference had an even bigger upset.

If the lineups of the two sides are neat, whoever wins is normal, but the Mavericks' starting forward Antoine Walker is absent due to injury, so the Spurs still lost, and the loss was as much as 20 points... This is a bit of a bullshit!
此役“老司机”全场27投15中，其中三分球5投2中，罚球10投9中，砍下41分11篮板6助攻1抢断2盖帽，几乎完爆了“只得到”21分12篮板3助攻2盖帽的邓肯。

小牛队这边除了诺维斯基，纳什贡献出19分3篮板11助攻1抢断，球队“前老大”迈克尔.芬利也贡献出18分5篮板2助攻1抢断，还有约什.霍华德，他也砍下了16分5篮板3助攻2抢断1盖帽。

Although the "French Sports Car" Tony Parker and the "Argentine Demon Sword" Manu Ginobili both performed well, it's a pity that the other role players played too much. How could they not lose?
The situation in the West this year is quite complicated, and the eight teams entering the playoffs all have strong strengths. No matter what the ranking is, if anyone dares to take it lightly, they may have to have a "black eight", "black seven" or something.

So on the evening of April 4, at the pre-match mobilization meeting in the locker room of the visiting team, the old Dunleavy asked the Clippers players not to take it lightly, no matter whether they were leading or falling behind, and must go all out!

The strength of the Kings is indeed very strong. They have a record of 3 wins and 1 loss against the Clippers in the regular season this season, but the old Dunleavy does not think that the Clippers are worse than them.

After all, the Clippers have been short of major generals for a long time during the regular season, and now all their wounded have returned from injury. Otherwise, how could they have a record of 14 wins and 2 losses in the final stage of the regular season?

The Clippers currently have a complete lineup and have just reached the best state of the season. Their strength is not just as simple as fifth in the Western Conference...
