Legend of Tomorrow
Chapter 870 [The champion who doesn’t care, the bottom who doesn’t mess up]
With the championship ring in hand and the departure of the role players who lost their fighting spirit, the Suns rose strongly and beat their opponents in every possible way throughout the season.
As long as the core of the Suns does not change, there will be a tacit tactical coordination, and at best, they can create one-on-one opportunities for each other. The skills and consciousness of big-name players have reached a certain level. As long as they do not suffer serious injuries, their strength will not drop much before the age of 35.
The biggest advantage of the Suns is that Guo Xu is better than all point guards; Stoudemire, who has four championships, is also working hard. He can't afford to lose this season and will have to take responsibility for the loss; Roy is often relaxed on defense and maintains high efficiency. In the end He shot 48.3% from the field, 38.4% from three-point range, and scored 20.6 points and 4.1 assists.
The overall good condition of the Suns is also related to Guo Xu's taking care of the emotions of his teammates. He has always had a high emotional intelligence, never puts on a show, and even gives small gifts every year. On the court, he concentrates on making assists, reducing the number of shots he takes and not caring about rebounds. With his help, his teammates will produce good statistics and will naturally not be dissatisfied.
Even Dragic, who has no data and no playing time, is not dissatisfied. He is only a second-round rookie. It is interesting that Guo Xu is willing to deal with him and teach him some skills.
2-8 in the West are the Rockets, Spurs, Timberwolves, Lakers, Grizzlies, Mavericks, and Nuggets.
Ranked 9-15 are the Hornets, Jazz, Warriors, Thunder, Trail Blazers, Clippers, and Kings.
There were many injuries in the second half. The Hornets sent away Chandler in the middle period to train Oden, but Oden was immediately injured and reimbursed. Former All-Star Stojakovic was in a sluggish state, and the Hornets' overall strength dropped sharply, falling all the way out of the playoffs.
How bad is Stojakovic? He averaged 34.2 minutes per game, only 13.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.2 assists, shooting 39.9% from the field, only 37.8% from the three-point range, and a true shooting percentage of 53.1%.
A forward known for his shooting, he is good for nothing except fixed-point three-pointers. He only averages 1.7 free throws per game, but his annual salary is the highest on the team, 12.53 million.
Lewis was slightly better, averaging 38 minutes per game, 20.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.4 assists, shooting 46.1% from the field and 40.8% from the three-point range. However, his efficiency is not high and he cannot be called a super scorer. His rebounding efficiency as a power forward is even more pitiful.
These two are put together, and their height is not helpful for interior defense, and their offensive positions overlap. The most terrible thing is that their contracts are very large. The Hornets can't trade them out at all, and they can only exchange them for other junk contracts.
The Jazz's poor record is also due to injuries. Okur played 72 games, Deron played 65 games, Kirilenko 63 games, and West 61 games. They also lacked an important substitute Mir because of the butterfly effect caused by Guo Xu. Sap.
9 or 10 teams have hope of reaching the playoffs.
The Warriors also suffered from injuries and refused to finish at the bottom from beginning to end.
They only achieved 27 wins. Big Z Ilgauskas missed 20 games due to injury. When he was away, the Warriors' defense in the penalty area was a mess, which was a fatal weakness. And when he is on the court, he still has the weakness of slow movement and poor defense against pick-and-rolls.
Jamison's statistics after joining the Warriors were good. He averaged 20+10 points per game and was the team's second scoring point. However, Jamison was a small forward and played as a guest at the 4th position. His defensive effect was not as good as that of Harrington who was sent away. The team was beaten in the penalty area. If you become a sieve, you can't win no matter how strong your offense is.
The Warriors' perimeter defense also had loopholes. Luol Deng only played in 53 games because he had to undergo season-ending surgery for a stress fracture in his right foot. The team originally needed him to match up with the opponent's scorer, but after he was seriously injured, Kobe was the only one left to play.
In addition to Elton Brand, who was reimbursed in the early stage, the Warriors' starting lineup injured three generals, and substitute Belinelli also missed 28 games. Only Kobe, Jamison and fixed-point shooter Barbosa could not reach the playoffs. race.
The only good news for the Warriors is that they are ranked 11th in the Western Conference. Only the Wizards and Knicks in the Eastern Conference have worse records than them. Even if they don't get the top three picks, the Warriors can get the seventh pick at the lowest and be able to select a high-overall rookie in 2009.
The team had a poor record for two consecutive years, and Kobe failed to win the scoring title. There was too much garbage time in the game. In the second half of the season, he often clocked out in three quarters, ranking second with an average of 28.5 points per game.
The Warriors are losing an average of 112 points per game. Mike Woodson will be dismissed after the regular season. The Warriors' new coach is yet to be determined. The GIF of Kobe Bryant's death stare to Woodson during the season has been widely circulated online.
The Lakers, who have lost Kobe Bryant, are ranked fifth, but have a high chance of reaching the second round of the playoffs. Their regular season record is better than that of the Timberwolves, who finished fourth because of their status as Northwest Conference champions and only achieved 49 wins.
1-8 in the Eastern Conference are the Cavaliers, Celtics, Magic, Hawks, Raptors, 76ers, Pacers, and Nets.
The Cavaliers won 66 games and were the only team besides the Suns to win 60+ games. The Raptors have a good fifth-place record, but entering the playoffs this year means they will miss out on the future King of the North DeRozan in the summer draft.
Ranked 9-15 are the Heat, Pistons, Bulls, Bobcats, Bucks, Knicks, and Wizards.
There have been many changes in the Eastern Conference. The Bulls lineup is completely different from Guo Xu's previous life, missing Noah, Luol Deng, Sefolosha, and Salmons. The Bulls' interior defense is very poor, Yi Jianlian still can't find the rhythm of the game in the second season, Rose's statistics are good and he is the favorite for the best rookie, but he can't lead the team.
In Guo Xu's previous life, Wade led the Heat to fifth place in the Eastern Conference this season. Although they were eliminated in the first round, they performed well.
Now the Heat lineup is missing Udonis Haslem at the 4th position, O'Neal Jr. is playing center, and they also lack a strong inside substitute. In the 2008 draft, they selected OJ Mayo, whose position overlapped with Wade's, which was another wrong choice.
Before he entered the NBA, Mayo was already being touted by major media as the next Jordan's successor.
Mayo became famous as a teenager and became famous. As early as the eighth grade, Mayo won the title of local Mr. Basketball and won the high school basketball championship for three consecutive years. In high school, Mayo averaged 29 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists per game. In college, he was coveted by major teams across the United States and eventually entered the University of Southern California. Although his college performance was average, he was selected as the third overall pick in the 2008 draft due to his reputation.
But how can a team have two Jordan successors? Wade controlled the ball for a long time, causing Mayo to play mainly without the ball. In his rookie season, he averaged only 11.3 points and 2.4 assists per game, and his shooting percentage was 41.7%.
Wade won the scoring title for the first time in his career, averaging 30.2 points per game.
The assist leader is Guo Xu, averaging 15 times per game. The others are just here to compete for second place.
This is the sixth time in Guo Xu's career that he has won the assists title, tying Big O Robertson for third place in history. He is preceded by Bob Cousy's 8 times and Stockton's 9 times.
Guo Xu completed the feat of averaging 15+ assists per game for the second time in a single season. No one else has done it. Stockton, who ranked third in a single season, only had 14.5 assists. His scoring ability cannot be compared with Guo Xu.
The Magic's Dwight Howard won both the rebounding and shot-blocking titles, averaging 20.6 points, 13.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1 steal and 2.8 blocks per game.
Chris Paul continues to lead the league in steals, averaging 2.8 per game.
He averaged 22.8 points, 5.5 rebounds and 11 assists per game this season, and his shooting percentage was 50.3%. He is the star with the best statistics after Guo Xu. However, he did not make it to the playoffs after being cheated by his teammates, and his evaluation was not high.
The Suns' championship call is the highest in the league. Experts predict that there will be no suspense in the first round of the playoffs. The Nuggets will be swept by the Suns in the regular season.
When Mike Bibby thought about playing four games with Guo Xu in the playoffs, he simply didn't want to play. What awaits him must be a nightmare...
