I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 825: Season's End, NBA Highlights

In the NBA in this time and space, there are many players who have reached the 30,000-point mark in the regular season, and even two players who have reached the 40,000-point mark.

​​

Kobe and Chen Xiao successively became the 40,000 points of the NBA.

​​

And Mr. 30,000 points below 40,000 points, there are currently Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Malone, Jordan, James, Nowitzki, Chamberlain, O'Neal, Wheat, Carter, Iverson, Ray Allen, plus two 4 Mr. Wanfen, a total of 13 gentlemen above 30,000 points.

​​

And Wade, is about to become the NBA's 1430,000 points.

​​

Seriously, for the current nba, Mr. 30,000 points is indeed not uncommon now, but obviously, Wade is still different from others.

​​

After all, Wade is now recognized by the NBA as one of the top ten players in league history.

​​

For such players to reach such milestones, they must be treated differently.

​​

So, after the All-Star break, the focus of the NBA's public opinion was on Wade.

​​

And Wade is very calm about this kind of attention, not so excited, but also very happy, it seems to be very normal.

​​

Even during the interviews, he talked to these reporters about his career plans.

​​

"You are right, reaching 30,000 points in the nba is a great achievement, for me, my career is getting more and more perfect, I have done something that I never did when I entered the nba Some things I have thought about, so I have been thinking, maybe I will retire directly in place now, and I will not have any regrets."

​​

"Dwyane, do you mean that after this season, you will retire from the NBA?"

​​

There was an uproar for a while.

​​

"I had this idea, but in the end Chen and Ron dismissed my idea, maybe I won't be as strong next season, but I can still help Chen and Ron, and I will implement my player options. , jumped out of my contract, and signed a new one with the Warriors."

​​

Yes, Wade changed his mind about retiring after the season and enjoying life.

​​

Wade is actually so unambitious sometimes, and his strength has declined significantly. If he continues to hold a max salary next season, his strength is not worthy of the salary, and he will definitely be ridiculed to death by then, then Indecent.

​​

In order not to be so indecent, Wade really planned to retire at the peak next season.

​​

But Chen Xiao and Ron Howard still persuaded him to stay.

​​

Since the maximum salary of more than 50 million next season will affect his evaluation, then it is fine not to have this maximum salary, and the three brothers will play together for a few more years.

​​

Not even for the championship, nor for anything else, just for everyone to retire at the same time in the future.

​​

The three brothers entered the NBA at the same time, and then left the NBA at the same time. Isn't this a good story?

​​

And an important persuasive factor that can make Wade continue to play in the nba is that Wade's eldest son, Zaire Wade, is indeed very hopeful.

​​

Born in 2002, he is 16 years old this year. He has performed very well in high school. He is now the top 20 five-star high school students in the United States in the same class.

​​

In the future, Wade Jr. has a good chance to enter the NBA.

​​

When Wade Jr. enters the league in 2021, the father and son are on the same stage, which is also a good story.

​​

In 2021, 2018 is actually only three years away, and Wade's current level is affordable.

​​

It is precisely because of this reason that Wade changed his mind.

​​

Wade still has the last 300 points left in the distance of 30,000 points. Many people say that the Warriors should support Wade to score points and complete the three points earlier when the Warriors have already secured the first place in the Western Conference. extremely.

​​

But when the regular season started again, everyone thought wrong.

​​

Whether it's Wade or the Warriors, they don't seem to be so obsessed with reaching 30,000 points quickly.

​​

Especially Wade himself, the game, the rest, and even the rhythm of the team's focus on training youngsters such as Devin Booker and Jaylen Brown.

​​

A very good team. In the face of such a huge personal achievement, the Wade team is unbelievable.

​​

So, having such a leader in the team really makes the team's young players respect.

​​

After all, now that the team has entered the second half, the team already has a goal. If this goal is changed, it is possible, but it will indeed disrupt the rhythm of these young people.

​​

Wade did not put himself above these young players who are now being trained by the team. He has such qualifications and status, but he did not do it.

​​

Therefore, the young players of the Warriors always said in interviews that they felt very happy to play in the Warriors. Here, it is really a paradise for these potential young players.

​​

Originally, many reporters predicted that Wade would be able to complete the final share of the 300 points within 15 games.

​​

But the final result was that Wade did not complete the 30,000-point mark until April 10, when the Warriors played the Suns at home.

​​

For the last 300 points, Wade spent a total of 23 games. Of course, mainly because Wade actually took 8 rests in these 23 games, so it took 15 games to complete the 300 points.

​​

This speed is actually very fast.

​​

It can be seen that although Wade's speed, explosiveness and physical strength did not support his lightning breakthrough, the rest and the team's care made him very physically fit, so his game state was also extremely stable.

​​

Basically every game can get about 20 points casually.

​​

Although it is said that the efficiency is much lower than before, and for the first time in his career, the shooting percentage has even dropped from more than 50%, but to be honest, as a perimeter player, and a perimeter player who mainly focuses on mid-range, the shooting percentage can be improved. More than 47%, close to 48%, this is really good.

​​

On the night Wade successfully became the NBA's 30,000-point man, Chen Xiao specially put on a commemorative cap for Wade, and all the home fans in the arena will get a gold T-shirt with the 30,000-point number printed on it.

​​

And in the blessings of Chen Xiao, Luo Ge and the entire audience of Warriors fans, Wade was also very emotional and left tears in the end.

​​

After playing the Suns, on April 11, 2018, the Warriors' last game of the season was a guest against the Jazz, who are now competing with the Lakers, Spurs, and Clippers for the second place in the Western Conference.

​​

In this game, the Warriors, who were the No. 1 team in the West, had already been determined early, and they basically gave up this game in the end.

​​

Because of this game, Chen Xiao, Wade and Ron Howard of the Warriors were rested.

​​

Moreover, even Nongmei and Clay only played half-court.

In the first half of the game, the two teams were still inseparable. In the second half, after Nongmei and Klay couldn't get on, the Warriors' inside line basically collapsed.

​​

Although Devin Booker's performance was excellent, the absence of Chen Xiao and Nongmei made Allen, John Collins and Wood unable to stop the hammer from Millsap and Yi Jianlian.

​​

In the end, the Warriors lost to the Jazz 107-119 on the road.

​​

After losing to the Jazz, the Warriors' record also came to 75 wins and 7 losses, still firmly ranked first in the Western Conference and first in the league.

​​

After defeating the Warriors at home, the Jazz finally stabilized their second position in the Western Conference, and it was precisely because of this that at the end of the game, the Jazz's leader, the United Arab League and many of the Jazz's players cried with joy. .

​​

This year has been too difficult for the four teams in the West competing for second place.

​​

The Jazz, Lakers, Clippers and Spurs, the four teams competed almost from start to finish for an entire season.

​​

And the final result of the Western Conference ranking is, Warriors, Jazz, Lakers, Spurs, Clippers, Timberwolves, Trail Blazers, Suns.

​​

The most interesting thing in the Western Conference this season is that the four teams compete for the second place, and the final result is that the records of these four teams are all 55 wins and 27 losses.

​​

Yes, you read that right, the Jazz, Lakers, Spurs, Clippers, these four teams have exactly the same record.

​​

This is extremely rare in the history of the NBA.

​​

None of these four teams can be considered super teams, but there is no doubt that in terms of the fierce competition this season, it is indeed quite scary.

​​

Of course, if you insist on classifying the strength of these four teams, the Warriors are still stronger than the Lakers.

​​

The reason why the Lakers finally lost in the World War II was mainly because the Lakers, a newly formed team, was in a very unstable state of the game. Inexplicable opponent.

​​

But obviously, with Jokic, Leonard and Paul George, three superstar players leading the team, in the playoffs, the Lakers' combat effectiveness will be very terrifying.

​​

Perhaps the Lakers are the Warriors' biggest opponent in the playoffs this season.

​​

After all, for the entire West, apart from the huge highlight of the four teams competing for the second place, the Lakers' ability to play in five-to-five is also a highlight of the entire West.

​​

By the way, the rookie Mitchell of the Jazz, the new superstar Jimmy Butler of the Spurs, these newcomers in the Western Conference have performed very well this season.

​​

In short, this season, there are really many bright spots in the West.

​​

On the East side, the 1-8 teams in the East this year are the Bucks, Cavaliers, Bobcats, Philadelphia, Wizards, Knicks, Raptors and New Jersey Nets.

​​

This season's Eastern Conference, apart from the Cavaliers, Bucks and Bobcats, the three super-powerful teams, other teams are really described as sudden emergence.

​​

Just say Philadelphia, which beat the Raptors and excluded the Celtics from the playoffs. This season, under the leadership of Embiid, Philadelphia played very well. After Iverson left, this ball After a lapse of n years, the team once again reached the playoffs.

​​

In addition to Embiid, the Wizards' James Harden has taken a step further this season compared to last season.

​​

In fact, the record of the Wizards is better than that of Philadelphia, just because the Wizards have the Bobcats as the leader in their division, and the record of the second best Cavaliers in the division is unshakable, so the Wizards can only rank fifth in the East. .

​​

Although it is only fifth, James Harden is averaging 30.4 points, 8.8 assists and 1.8 steals per game this season, which is really amazing.

​​

And he and Westbrook are also the fastest rising superstars in the NBA in the past two seasons, and of course the most controversial superstars.

​​

James Harden's style of play is too utilitarian, and he likes to draw fouls very much.

​​

As for Westbrook, his style of play is to attack the data too much, and the game is just like playing 2k.

​​

Anyone who has played 2k knows that if a defender wants to grab a rebound, he can't follow his perimeter defender all the time. He needs to let go of his defender and go back to the basket to grab a rebound.

​​

Westbrook is like this. The game always loses defenders and rebounds.

​​

On the offensive end, the hand is glued to the hand. If you can move without the ball, you will not move without the ball. There is no data on the movement without the ball.

​​

After so many years, Westbrook has basically not changed at all. It is okay to say that he is mature, but his maturity is indeed stronger, and at the same time, the game of stats is also more optimized.

​​

Therefore, under his leadership, the Knicks are much better than they used to be in the playoffs.

​​

Of course, as a player who has averaged 30+ triple-doubles per game for n consecutive seasons, if he can lead his team to the playoffs, although the ranking is not so high, he must be considered a superstar player.

​​

By the way, the league's scoring champion this season is almost still Westbrook.

​​

Curry saved the scoring title this season.

​​

After Westbrook scored the three-pointer in the sewer, it seems that he has also started to put the scorer in the sewer.

​​

In the history of the NBA, no scoring champion is more controversial than Westbrook.

​​

Apart from these two people and two teams, the other biggest bright spot in the Eastern Conference is of course the Nets.

​​

The Nets bought the team in Kidd, UU reading www. After uukanshu.com became the team's owner, general manager and head coach, after so many years, he finally made it to the playoffs.

​​

This is really not easy. This season, the Nets can make the playoffs, and the team's boss Irving is really responsible. He averaged 27 points per game, shot 49.5%, and made 41% of three-pointers. .

​​

There is also the very controversial rookie last year, Ingram, this season's performance is also very good, from averaging more than 9 points per game to 17 points per game, after the confrontation, this Ingram is really that much. Little Durant, the shadow of the bankrupt version of Chen Xiao.

​​

Of course, if you want to say who is the biggest bright spot in the entire league this season, it is naturally Curry, the leading guard of the Eastern Bucks, and Chen Xiao, the leading player of the Warriors.

​​

This season is Chen Xiao's 16th season. In this season, he has been a center most of the time. He can average 27 points, 12 rebounds, 7.5 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks per game, and his hit rate exceeds 60. %, this data, without a doubt, is definitely the dominant insider data.

​​

And he, after this season, will be 36 years old.

​​

On the other side, Curry, who made crazy three-pointers in the regular season this season, perfectly replicated Ray Allen's madness of Ray Allen, who was as famous as Chen Xiao.

​​

As a result, he won the scoring title for the first time in his career and is about to be crowned the first regular season MVP of his career.
