I’m Really Playing Basketball

  Chapter 406 David Stern’s plan and the mighty east!

  NBA is a magical place, but also a place full of unknowns.

  Here, anything can happen.

  Here, a player with a free throw percentage of only about 40% can hit five three-pointers with 100% shooting in a single quarter.

  Here, a player who has always been known for his stability and toughness can suddenly become melancholy and weak in a game, and the final lore can throw three non-sticks.

  Here, there is nothing that cannot happen. Here, it is common sense to believe in miracles.

  In this game between the Pistons and the Magic, many people were already crying for the Bobcats' seventh place before the game.

   But this game between the Pistons and the Magic has convinced everyone who wants to see the Bobcats play the Bucks in the playoffs.

  The miracle that so many people believe in must be a real miracle?

  When most of the public opinion in the U.S. is full of miracle games for this highly controversial game, then this game must be a miracle?

In the eyes of many people, the NBA does have many miracles, such as Chen Xiao’s 80 points and Kobe’s 81 points. However, in this game between the Pistons and the Magic, the Pistons finally seemed like a miracle, and the magic was definitely not one of them. .

  Because of this miracle, it looks so full of artificial flavor.

  It’s just that, because this is the result most people want to see, so these people chose to ignore it.

  Ignore McGrady’s roar after the game, Ginobili’s roar after the game, and Duncan’s shaking his head and mocking after the game.

  So, seeing the national public opinion reporting this game like this, a bald head behind the scenes showed a smile as it should be.

  "My philosophy is correct, man-made miracles are also miracles!"

  The whole world is caring for the Pistons and Magic's result, which makes this bald head full of confidence.

  On the other side, David Stern, the head of the NBA, who threw a pen and cursed ‘I’m so angry’ last night, looked at these national media reports in his hands, and his face was very ugly.

Man-made miracles can be cheered like real miracles. However, if the number of times increases, the miracle will depreciate, and the miracle will depreciate. It will not only degrade fake miracles. True miracles will also be affected, and in the end bad money will succumb to death. currency.

  More importantly, when the man-made miracle succeeds for a short time, you will become addicted, and you can't help but continue to create such so-called miracles.

  The end result is that the authority of the NBA continues to decline.

  In this game, it seems that there is only one victim of Magic.

  But the next time a man made a miracle, will the victim be another team?

  One team at a time becomes a victim. How many teams are there in the entire league?

  After every team is harmed, the trust of the players, management or fans in the NBA will be cleared.

  When all the teams, all the fans, and all the players have zeroed out the fairness of the NBA, what terrible and terrible scene will it produce?

  It will be that every NBA game and every penalty will be put on a magnifying glass to be examined.

  Refers are not machines, and the criteria for a match are different. No referee can make a match without making any mistakes.

  And the final result, perhaps in any wonderful game, the final player's performance is not the focus, but the referee's penalty is the focus.

   And after such a thing really happened, the entire NBA was ruined.

  No audience likes to watch a league that is always torn by referees.

  In the end, the NBA will degenerate into an increasingly niche league.

  "This is digging the foundation of the NBA!"

  Seriously, David Stern never considered himself an absolutely fair person.

  But there are some things that you absolutely cannot do.

   is like a celebrity whistle, is it fair?

  Of course it’s not fair, it’s very unfair to role players, and it’s absolutely unfair to defensive players.

  But many people accept the celebrity whistle, because this is not the result of manipulation, just like awarding outstanding students when they are studying.

  So, many players are even motivated to become stars and have a certain degree of celebrity whistle.

  Whether it is a star whistle or some care for a specific player, these are not fair, but they are all acceptable categories.

  Because these cannot directly change the result of the game, players with star whistle will not win every game, and players with special care will not really be invincible because of special care.

  But in this game between Magic and Pistons, this is a direct control result!

  This is beyond his tolerance.

  What's more, it is not the president of his alliance who made this decision!

  This is something he can't tolerate even more.

  He is making the NBA even greater, and some people are pulling back.

   Now that we have the alliance of Chen Xiao and James, there is no need for such a low-handed means to increase attention and commercial value.

   "Some people have fallen behind."

  David Stern calmed down from his anger and said quietly: "Since you are behind, you have to leave, but before leaving, make one last contribution to the NBA."

  After putting down the newspaper in his hand, David Stern looked deeply at the group photo on the desk. In the photo, the bald head standing next to him was smiling wryly.

   "Keep going crazy.

Do not let me down……"

  At one o'clock in the afternoon on April 9, 2006, the Detroit Pistons, who are 44 wins and 32 losses with the Bobcats, will play the Indiana Pacers at home.

  Chen Xiao and Bobcats players who are already in Toronto are watching the result of this game.

  The game between the Bobcats and the Raptors started at 3:30 in the afternoon after the Pistons and the Pacers.

  In this game between the Pistons and the Pacers, the players of the Pistons were not affected by the recent NBA controversy over the Pistons and Magic games.

  For NBA players, the referee’s penalties have nothing to do with them. As for the Magic fans who earned the nickname ‘Detroit’s Four Whistle’ for the Pistons’ Four Tigers, they didn’t really care.

   Still the same sentence, referees are not what they can influence as players.

  It is beyond their control whether the referee drank alcohol or smoked a mental disorder during the competition this night.

  So in this game between the Pistons and the Pacers, facing the Pacers who had already given up the playoffs, the Pistons easily defeated the Pacers 98-73.

  After defeating the Pacers at home, the Pistons' record became 45 wins and 32 losses.

  Finally lost the seventh place in the Eastern Conference. The Pistons had more than a week to grab the seventh place in the Eastern Conference.

  After the Pistons won, there was another cheer on the Internet.

  Because the Bobcats are in line with the aesthetics of these lively netizens, they fell to the eighth position in the east.

   Originally the pressure was on the piston side, but now the pressure is on the Bobcat side.

  The Bobcats played away to the Raptors. For the Bobcats, this is basically an impossible game to win.

  Although the schedule behind the Pistons is worse, it is no longer said that the Pistons are safe, but what if the games behind the Pistons can continue to create miracles?

  After the game between the Pistons and the Pacers, American netizens were cheering, while Chen Xiao and the Bobcats players were ready to play against the Raptors after watching the game in the away locker room.

  The Bobcats and Raptors game is a national broadcast game.

  This game is more than just an impact on the ranking of this year’s playoffs.

  At the same time, this game may also be meaningful to Chen Xiao personally.

  Because Chen Xiao’s total score in his career has reached 10,941 points, as long as Chen Xiao scores 59 points in this game against the Raptors, he can become the youngest Mr. 11,000 in NBA history.

   23 years old and 182 days old Mr. 11,000 points, this is too good.

  You must know that the youngest man with a score of 11,000 in the league is the boss of science. When the boss of science reached 11,000, he was already 25 years old.

  That is to say, Chen Xiao entered the NBA two years later than the Ko boss, and completed 11,000 points a year earlier. Chen Xiao’s scoring in the first four years of his career has been matched by the Ko boss for three years.

  Chen Xiao reached 11,000 points at the age of 23 and 182 days, how about Mr. Dior?

  In history, when Xiao Zhan reached 11,000 points, Xiao Zhan’s age was 23 years old and 324 days. That is to say, starting from 11,000 points, Chen Xiao could not be caught up by Xiao Zhan.

   Coupled with the new NBA draft age rules, Chen Xiao basically started from 11,000 points, and it is impossible for later generations to catch up with the youngest record.

  Even if this game against the Raptors fails to reach 11,000 points, and the next game against the Grizzlies is reached, Chen Xiao is still unprecedented.

  At 3:30 pm on April 9, 2006, Toronto Aerospace Center Arena.

  The starting players from both sides of the game tonight have already appeared on the court after the warm-up.

  In front of the TV, Chinese and American audiences have been waiting for this game.

  With Chen Xiao's scoring ability, facing the fast-paced team of the Raptors, it is possible to score very high points in a single game. 60+ is not impossible.

  So, this game may indeed become a milestone for Chen Xiao.

  So, especially the Chinese fans, they are already quite excited at this time.

  On TV, the starting players of the two teams are.

  Visit Bobcats, center is Bynum, power forward is Zach Randolph, small forward Granger, shooting guard Chen Xiao, point guard Xiaopao.

  The Raptors are center Milicic, power forward Josh Smith, small forward Pippen Morris Paterson, shooting guard Laga Bell, and point guard Nash.

  The strength of the Raptors this season has become stronger than the previous two seasons.

  It's not just that Nash has become more and more comfortable in running and bombing tactics, but the growth of Milicic, Josh Smith and Paterson Lagabe is also the key reason.

  Milicic, the youngest in NBA history, has 1,000 points and 2,000 points. This season, he can average 19 points, 11 rebounds and 3.4 blocks per game. He is the NBA's blocked shots this season.

  For the time being, there are 0.2 more than Camby.

  Historically, Milicic’s blocking status this season is very good. He replaced Howard for the Magic and averaged 2.1 blocks per game in the past 20 minutes.

  Why is Milicic's blocking state so good this season?

  First of all, three years of NBA growth, confrontation, and skills have risen to a certain level. At the same time, his current athletic talent is still at its peak, and his athletic ability will only decline when his weight continues to increase.

  And this season, it happened to be the time when his athletic ability, confrontation ability, and technique were the most balanced.

  Able to run, jump, top and defend, isn’t it a good shot blocker?

  What's more, the Raptors played many quick rounds in the game, and Nash's defense was like that, so he naturally had more chances to block shots.

  So, with Milicic’s performance this season, if there are not too many strong players in the East, he can even make an All-Star.

And Josh Smith also has 15 points and 8 rebounds this season. He appeared at the power forward position this season. He is fast and defends well. He also averaged 2.6 blocks per game and Milicic, who averaged 3.3 blocks per game. The combination became one of the most terrifying no-fly zones in the NBA.

  Even in the entire NBA, except for the no-fly zone composed of O'Neal and Raheem, and Yao Ming and Chris Bosh, no team has such a strong no-fly zone as Milicic and Josh Smith.

  This season, Josh Smith replaced Marshall, the defensive 10,000-strong power forward, which was very successful in the Raptors.

Pippen Paterson, who played as a power forward because of Smith, returned to the starting position of a small forward. After being topped for a season, he returned to the starting lineup again this season. He was ashamed and brave this season, averaging 16.8 per game. He scored 40% of his three-pointers and has become one of the Raptors' most important outside shooters.

  Shooting guard Lagabere averaged 15 points per game this season, and even hit 45% from three-pointers, which is even more terrifying, and his defense is also very powerful.

Coupled with Nash, who averaged 18 points and 11 assists per game, the Raptors' five starts this season averaged more than 15 points per game. None of the Raptors averaged more than 20 points per game. However, all of the five starters were 15 points per game. Above, this is the first time in the history of the NBA.

  The Raptors are very strong this season. If they are in the West, they will definitely be able to easily win more than 60 wins. So now they have an advantage in competing with the Nets for the first position.

  So, the Raptors are now fourth in the Eastern Conference.

As the fourth Raptors in the East, their current record is only 53 wins and 24 losses, but in Chen Xiao’s view, this Raptors is only stronger than the Spurs in the West and the Suns in the West and the Lakers in the West. Strong or not weak.

  Especially in the balance of power.

  The top three in the West are strong, but they all have their own huge flaws.

  For example, the No. 1 Spurs in the West, this team's ability to attack inside is too weak.

  For example, the second Suns in the West, this team does not have an excellent organization and offensive outside line that can be selected at the same time, the organization depends on the inside line, this problem is very big.

For example, the third-largest Lakers in the West, Byron Davis, Co. boss, Odom, David West, Gasol, is very strong, offensive and defensive is also very balanced, but lacks a three-point shooter, inside. The ability to defend against strong offenses is also problematic.

  But for the Raptors, these are not problems.

  To shooters, they start with three three-pointers or more than 40%.

  To attack, they can start off everyone.

  To defend, in addition to Nash, the other four are defensive champions, and the four can make up for Nash's defensive problems.

  To organize, Nash is now the same organizer as the boss.

  Let’s put it this way, don’t look at the record of the Raptors led by Nash in the Eastern Conference. It’s not because the Raptors are weak, but the Eastern Conference is too strong.

  The current Raptors are stronger than the sun in history.

  Especially in the playoffs, the inside line composed of Milicic and Josh Smith, tusk, is too strong on defense.

  Insufficient offense, Nash can strengthen offense to make up for it.

  If the defense is not enough, Nash can't make up if he wants to make up.

  So, if it is in the playoffs, this Raptors can show stronger combat effectiveness than the Suns.

  Facing such a team ~www.NovelMTL.com~ To be honest, Michael's requirement of the Bobcats before the game is: "Losing less than winning, keeping your confidence."

  Yes, no one believes that the Bobcats can beat the Raptors in this game.

   Including Bobcats’ head coach Michael.

  Even in the east of the strong like Lin, the strength of the Raptors led by Nash cannot be concealed and ignored.

  Even Chen Xiao can feel that this Raptor is completely different from the one that was killed by the Bucks’ five minor reversals last season.

  Well, although it is fourth in the East, look at the eyes of Nash, Milicic and the others, their confidence is almost the same as the first in the East.

   "It seems that Yao Wade and the Heat are not the only ones showing weakness in the regular season this season."

   Crazy in the regular season is the Bucks.

  I don’t know how many teams are crazy in the regular season.

  I can only say that the environment in the east is too terrifying!

  Ps: Ask for monthly pass, ask for monthly pass! ! !
