Chapter 205 The Big Deal at the End of the Season and Li Wan's Strong Finale
Chapter 205 The Big Deal at the End of the Season and Li Wan's Strong Finale
Li Wan spent the first two days of the All-Star Weekend playing soy sauce, and he didn't even appear in the side seats for the Rookie Challenge and the "Three Challenges".
His mentality is actually very simple, two words:
rest!
This was also brought to the third day of the All-Star weekend by him.
As the "Ticket King", he only played 11 minutes and 14 seconds in this All-Star game, and he didn't take many shots. He only took 3 shots, hit 2 of them, and sent 6 assists. Little gain.
The New York media reporters were very happy. They thought that Li Wan was trying to avoid suspicion and keep a distance from the "predecessor" of the Lakers.
Knicks fans think the reporters are right...
When a reporter asked Li Wan for verification, he smiled and was noncommittal.
The reporters did not continue to ask questions.
The end of the All-Star Weekend means that the free market is closed.
At this time in previous years, some relatively large transactions usually occur!
This year……
No exception!
First, the Hornets reached a deal with the Nets:
黄蜂队送出克里斯-保罗以及2012年和2014年次轮签，得到篮网队去年夏天刚刚选中的10年首轮3号秀费沃斯，大卫-李以及09年第11顺位泰伦斯-威廉姆斯，还有2013年的首轮签。
When this deal appeared, even Li Wan was taken aback for a moment.
Is the "butterfly effect" coming again?
But if you think about it carefully, the chips given by the Nets are indeed much better than the Clippers' Eric Gordon, Kaman, Aminu and the 2013 first-round pick.
Not to mention Kaman, although he is an All-Star, he even lost his starting lineup after being seriously injured. The rebuilding team wants such a guy just to free up salary space.
Eric Gordon, the No. 08 pick in the first round in 7, is indeed fierce, but crisp is also really crisp.
He played 78 games in the first season, and 65 games in the second season. This season is now reimbursed for the season, and the attendance rate has not even survived 60 games...
Just this absenteeism rate is scary to look at!
So Aminu can still try to scratch it off...
Compared with this set of chips, the lineup of the Nets is obviously much more fragrant. It needs the No. 10 pick with 3 years of potential, and the healthy David Lee who averaged 16.8 points and 8.9 rebounds per game this season. …
As long as the general manager of the Hornets is not stupid, he will definitely choose to trade with the Nets...
Li Wan was a little surprised by Billy King's deal.
In his impression, this guy should only do business at a loss!
How did this deal go so...
Could it be that this is the legendary blessing for fools?
But before Li Wan could react, another big deal came out.
It's still about the Nets.
This transaction is the "future" that Li Wan is familiar with.
Boston Celtics send Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Glenn Davis to Nets for Yi Jianlian, Jordan Hill, Jordan Farmar, Travis Otter Lowe, Devin Harris and the exchange rights to the 2012 first-round pick, 2014 first-round pick, 2016 first-round pick and 2018 first-round pick.
Ok……
This is the bully Billy King that Li Wan is familiar with!
Angie is also really ruthless, if he catches a fool, he will go to death.
However, compared to the original deal, this time it might really make Billy Golden Blind Cat meet a dead mouse.
You know, the Nets got Pierce and Garnett 2 years earlier than originally.
The deal originally took place in 13, but now, because of Li Wan, Ray Allen fled Boston, leading to the early disintegration of the "Big Three" of the Celtics.
At this time, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett are not at their peak, but a lean camel is bigger than a horse!
In the same position, he is still a first-line player...
After they joined, the Nets formed the starting lineup of Chris Paul at No. [-], Anthony Morrow at No. [-], Paul Pierce at No. [-], Kevin Garnett at No. [-], and Lopez at No. [-]. line-up.
On the bench, there are also good substitute players such as Chris Humphries and Wilson Chandler who have not married Kim Kardashian.
Run in this season, and then patch up in the summer, the competitiveness in the East in the next two years will definitely not be bad!
Didn't look at the outside media's evaluation of Billy King has improved a lot!
Of course, there are also many media bluntly saying: The Nets are betting on everything, including the future!Angie has completely squeezed out the value of the two veterans!
This also aroused the resentment of the Boston media. In their view, Angie's operation is equivalent to sending away the "team soul" of the Celtics.
Even if Paul Pierce did not bring a championship to the city, his diligent attitude over the years is completely qualified to retire his jersey.
This kind of ruthless and unjust approach should not appear in the wealthy Boston!
"If the cardinal is still there, such a thing will definitely not be allowed to happen..."
Angie is very disdainful of these emotional voices...
In his view, a transaction is a transaction, and if emotions are mixed in a transaction, it is doomed to be impossible to complete a wonderful transaction.A competent general manager should know that being cold-blooded is the professional quality that a person sitting in this position should possess...
As long as it is for the good of the team, Angie can even trade himself out!
However, these thoughts can only be kept in the mind and cannot be spoken out. Facing the reporter’s interview, he said: “I have talked with Paul and Kevin about this matter, and I only proceeded with the operation after obtaining their consent. , they know the whole process, they have their own way to go, which is why I sent them to the Nets..."
In fact, he didn't know that Chris Paul would be traded to the Nets.
But at this time, you must show "I broke up with him for his own good. I hope you can understand me. They all understand me anyway!"
to be honest:
Scum!
But one thing, he didn't lie...
He did call Paul Pierce and chat with him.As a result, there were billions of accidents, and he really succeeded in giving him a cup, and Paul Pierce agreed.
He agreed, and Kevin Garnett didn't say anything else, and went to the Nets together, even without the right to veto the transaction.
And after learning that Chris Paul would also come, the two of them had no complaints against Angie, and were even full of gratitude!
After all, the "Dream of Champions", which was about to fly away, flew back again!
Angie really cares about us!
Look, what does it mean to be "sold, but still counting the money, and the beauty has a snot bubble"...
At the same time as these two big deals, the Lakers also completed a big deal. They sent Nelson Jr. at No. [-], JJ Redick at No. [-], and Odom. The round pick and the subsequent second round pick, Deron Williams and a next year's second round pick were exchanged from the Jazz!
This news once again caused a huge shock!
Los Angeles media direct climax...
Although "Little Fatty" is worse than Chris Paul in terms of overall strength, the Lakers paid less!
Just a small Nelson plus a Redick, and Odom who has made trouble this season...
As for a first-round pick and a second-round pick... After this deal is concluded, it's actually worthless!
At the same time, the Lakers have at once: a super lineup of Deron Williams at No. [-], Kobe at No. [-], Ariza at No. [-], Paul Gasol at No. [-], and Bynum at No. [-]!
The bench is empty, and there are no players who can stand up...
But no matter what, this lineup is definitely a lineup that can compete for the championship!
When Li Wan heard the news, he was also a little surprised, but thinking about it, since the Nets made a deal with the Hornets, wouldn't the Lakers pick up this leak?
The Jazz's handling of Deron was a bit casual. The original Nets only used Favors, Devin Harris, 300 million cash and two first-round picks.
It looks good, but Devin Harris has been seriously injured twice, and he doesn't have the breakthrough ability of "Speed Boy" in 09. Among the two first-round picks, there is also a top-2013 protection in the first round in 7.
To put it bluntly, Favors is a potential stock, and the others are just additions.
Compared with the Lakers' deal, it's actually not enough...
You must know that among the two chips of the Lakers, jj-Redick later became a top shooter in the league, but he didn't have much playing time in the Lakers, so he didn't play it; When he was at his best, he was an All-Star in the Eastern Conference in 09!
In short, compared to the original Jazz, the loss is definitely not a loss.
But the Lakers definitely made a profit compared to the original!
With this lineup, the Lakers can at least maintain their championship competitiveness for two years.
If you strengthen the bench this summer, the combat effectiveness...
The West next year will be so beautiful!
This is Li Wan's idea, and David Stern's idea is:
LeBron, look at what you've done!
In his little book, he made another note for LeBron...
In addition to these three waves of transactions, before the trade deadline came, there were several transactions in the alliance, but in comparison, the disturbances caused were not so big, and they were all small transactions.
Including the Knicks, Donnie Walsh also made a deal at the buzzer.
According to what Li Wan said, he signed Danny Green who had just been given up by the Spurs for 2 million in two years... This deal is for Li Wan to prepare for a rainy day after Artest's decline.
Donnie Walsh doesn't care about this operation...
During the All-Star Weekend, he went to Salt Lake City several times and wanted to invite the old man out of the mountain.At the beginning, they were talking about assistant coaches, but Sloan didn't agree. Later, Donnie Walsh changed to a special advisor, but Sloan still didn't agree. In the end, he simply invited Sloan to help the team with special training for two days, but the old man still didn't agree.
It can be seen that Deron's operation really broke his heart...
Li Wan was far from disappointed.
That was the idea at the time.
Really didn't have much hope!
Already prepared with both hands...
Although Jerry Sloan was not signed, he got Mike Brown!
When this guy was in the Cavaliers, the offensive end may only have one trick:
Give the ball to LeBron.
But on the defensive end, he still has two brushes!
Including later going to the Warriors, Steve Kerr was able to play on the sidelines thanks to him taking care of the defensive end.
When Mike Brown heard that he was coming to the Knicks as an assistant coach, he agreed without saying a word.
Idle is idle, why not come to Knicks to brush up your resume!
2 month 17 day.
A few days before the resumption of the regular season.
These stars who have changed their flags have attended the press conference of the new club.
The impassioned appearance of facing the reporters one by one made the alliance a little more intense.
2 month 18 day.
The NBA regular season kicked off again.
The Knicks' first game after the All-Star break is:
The away game against the Los Angeles Clippers.
Danny Green rushed to the Knicks to join the team.
Seeing the future "Zhang Tielin", Li Wan is still the old way, let the coaching staff talk to him, let him focus on defense and catch and shoot.
As far as the upper limit is concerned, Danny Green must be a grade higher than Beverly.
This guy is not only capable on the defensive end, but also on the offensive end!
Later, he broke the record for the number of three-pointers made in the finals.
If Ray Allen hadn't hit that historic three-pointer, maybe he would have been the Finals MVP that year...
Of course, it's a good thing that Ray Allen made it, otherwise, the gold content of this Finals MVP would not be wiped out directly?
Well, this is just a joke. In fact, no matter from which angle, the Finals MVP is an important basis for measuring the historical status of a star.
Just because Gwyneth Paltrow won the Oscar "Best Actress", you can't think that this award has no weight, right?
In the NBA for so many years, it is actually quite normal to have one or two civilian finals MVPs...
Because that just proved that the "team" can defeat the "superstar"!
It's a coincidence that these two players who influenced the direction of the 2013 finals became teammates this time because of Li Wan!
However, judging from the results of Danny Green's first training with the team, it is not very ideal, and it will take some time before he is at his peak.Li Wan was not surprised either.
Popovich is a ruthless man who picks up "gold" from the "garbage dump". As for most of the role players in the Spurs, if they leave the Spurs, they will definitely not be able to survive in the league.Only Popovich can spot a spark or two in this player and capitalize on it.
The player who made him give up is naturally useless...
Fortunately, Li Wan knew the upper limit of this guy, so don't worry at all!
Take your time, he's not expected to do much this season...
Soon, it's game time.
As an opponent who had just met not long ago, the Knicks coaching staff is very familiar with this opponent, and easily took away the victory from the Clippers.
Griffin scored 24 points, 13 rebounds and 4 assists in this game, but he was still powerless and could only watch the team lose 24 points!
Speaking of...
Chris Paul is not coming to the Clippers, which should be a good thing for Griffin...
After all, this guy has organizational skills!
Later, he also parted ways with Chris Paul because of ball rights.
He feels that he can become the team's "organizational forward"!
Now, both Paul and Deron have just changed to new teams...
The Clippers really can't find better immediate combat power than Mo Williams and Gordon on the outside.It seems that such a "organizational striker" Blake Griffin is really possible!
Coupled with the growth of Gordon and others, Li Wan is quite looking forward to what this "youth army" Clippers team will become...
It was also at this moment that Li Wan felt...
This should be called the "Butterfly Effect"!
In the first game after the All-Star Weekend, Li Wan successfully scored 24 points, 12 rebounds and 8 assists.
Then it got even worse:
2月20日，25分13篮板10助攻的“三双”；
2月22日，27分12篮板7助攻；
2月23日，21分14篮板8助攻；
2月25日，25分13篮板10助攻的“三双”；
2月27日，26分13篮板8助攻；
……
Scored a "double-double" in 6 consecutive games, including 2 "triple-doubles"!
What makes people laugh and cry is that these 6 "double-doubles" are all rebounds, but the number of assists has not reached 2 or more in 4 games.
The reason is also very simple. In the past two days, he has deliberately worked hard on rebounding.
In November, he averaged 11 points, 25.4 rebounds and 10.4 assists per game;
In November, he averaged 12 points, 25.6 rebounds and 9.8 assists per game;
In November, he averaged 1 points, 41.3 rebounds and 8.6 assists per game;
From this data, it can be seen that if Li Wan wants a "triple-double of the season", there is no big problem in terms of scoring and assists.
The rebound is still a lot worse!
After the All-Star Game, although there are still 2 months to go, there are still 32 games left.Gotta work on the backboard.
This is also the reason why Li Wan has always had more than 10 rebounds after the All-Star Weekend.
With this wave of efforts, Li Wan's average data per game in February is:
26.4 points, 10.5 rebounds and 10.6 assists;
Another "monthly triple-double"!
After February, Li Wan's current average per game is:
29.7 points, 9.8 rebounds and 11.1 assists!
The average data is only 0.2 rebounds short, and the achievement of "seasonal triple-double" can be unlocked.
That is to say...
Next month, I have to make sure that I average at least 10.9 rebounds per game...
It's still a little difficult!
Fortunately, he has Ka Feng!
But now Li Wan has a question:
How did Westbrook manage to play 5 consecutive seasons.
Just this season alone, his brushing is already a bit boring!
Is it possible that "you will get used to it as you brush it"?
……
On March 3, the New York Knicks sat at home to welcome the Nets, who made a big deal during the All-Star Weekend.
I have to say that although the two transactions of Billy King overdrafted the future of the entire team, they did allow the team to rise rapidly.
Chris Paul plus Pierce and Garnett and Lopez are almost seamless...
Compared with Deron Williams, everyone has to admit that Chris Paul in this period is obviously more driving force.
After the All-Star break, this team has only lost one game in six games so far.
In the other five games, they all won the final victory.
The momentum is the same as the Knicks.
As far as their momentum is concerned, if they continue, they may not be able to "overtake on a curve" and squeeze into the playoffs at the last moment!
But facing this opponent who is likely to meet in the playoffs, D'Antoni chose to rest Dayao.
The season came to March, and the New York Knicks had 3 wins ahead of the second-placed Bulls in the Eastern Conference.
The advantages are obvious...
You can definitely look at the playoffs!
Another one, so far, the New York Knicks have lost a total of 7 games, and there is still a chance to tie or even break the best regular season record of 72 wins and 10 losses created by the Chicago Bulls that year...
Many media are exaggerating and hyping this matter!
Among them, some face-saving New York media are also constantly advocating that the Knicks should rush to break the regular season record...
D'Antoni's arrangement of rest is to show his attitude:
I don't care what your historical records are, our goal is only the championship!
Dayao rested.
In the face of the aggressive Nets, relying solely on Li Wan to lead the team, they failed to hold the home victory in the end. They lost the game by 103 to 109 by 6 points.
李万在这场比赛25分15篮板15助攻3抢断，拼尽全力，在三月份的第一场比赛就拿到了一个“三双”，甚至还是很夸张的“25加15加15”……
Naihe played very well against each other:
克里斯-保罗18分9助攻；保罗-皮尔斯18分5篮板；凯文-加内特15分7篮板；洛佩斯16分11篮板……
Li Wan was "difficult to beat with two fists and eight hands", so he could only watch his opponent leave with victory.
After winning the New York Knicks, the Nets are obviously more confident.
Chris Paul said bluntly: "Nothing can stop us!"
Paul Pierce said: "We will be the biggest contenders for the championship this season. Even though we have just formed, this does not affect our tacit cooperation. In fact, we will become stronger!"
Even Lopez said: "This season, we will break through the past..."
The Lakers are in the same state as the Nets.
The arrival of Deron Williams gave this team an extra ball-handler. His pick-and-roll with Paul Gasol can completely empty one side of the defense, allowing Kobe to have absolute space for singles.
This team also didn't get along very well, and quickly found a tacit understanding. After the All-Star Weekend, they only lost 2 games. If they continue to maintain, they are very hopeful to return to the top four!
In short, before the free market closed, the two teams that caused a huge commotion became the "spoilers" at the end of the season as expected.
On March 3, the league announced the awards for February.
Finally, a player snatched the "Best Player of the Month Award" from Li Wan.
None other than Derrick Rose!
This guy averaged 2 points, 27.6 rebounds and 5 assists per game throughout February. Thibodeau sorted out the Bulls' defensive end, allowing him to devote himself more to the offense.
The "roses" in February bloom more and more vividly.
Under his leadership, the Bulls overcame obstacles all the way and ended the journey in February with a record of 12 wins and 2 losses.
Finally snatched the "best of the month" from Li Wan!
In fact, just talking about the data performance in February, Li Wan is still faintly suppressing Ross.
But Rose is really good this season. It is estimated that the official feels that such a guy should be given the "best of the month" at least once!
No, even if Rose won the "Player of the Month Award" in the Eastern Conference.
On the regular season MVP list, Li Wan still firmly occupies the number one position.
The "Player of the Month Award" in the West changed hands again.
This time belongs to Kobe!
Before the All-Star Weekend, Kobe was in very good form in February, averaging 2 points, 28.9 rebounds and 4 assists per game. After the All-Star Weekend, although the arrival of Deron Williams made his data decline, he averaged only 5 per game in 6 games. Points, 24.5 rebounds and 5 assists, but the record has come up.
11 wins and 4 losses, one of the best teams in the Western Conference in February...
In addition, Kobe has not won the "Best of the Month" this season, so the official did not hesitate to give it.
With Li Wan winning the championship in 09 and Nowitzki's 10-year "confession of the gods", the league has re-entered the period of "warlord melee". Kobe's No.1 throne has long been unstable. While the official training of new players, it must also be consolidated status of the elderly.
This is what David Stern has always done.
Only in this way can the entire alliance watch "a hundred flowers bloom"!
On March 3, when the New York Knicks faced the Warriors, Li Wan scored 3 points, 33 rebounds and 16 assists in a "big triple-double". What about Curry and Monta Ellis in the backcourt?
Immediately, Li Wan regained his senses, and with a couple of slaps, he quickly dealt with the Warriors.
In addition...
It has to be the Warriors!
This fast-paced confrontation was not timid at all, and the increase in the number of rounds also allowed Li Wan to easily "scrape" a new season high of 16 rebounds.
It's also a career high!
After the game, Li Wan looked at the data sheet and couldn't help but have an idea:
It would be great if every night, the opponent is the Warriors!
Curry's performance tonight was a bit bad, and even his best three-pointers were only 7 of 1.If you want to express yourself too much, you will often perform poorly.
That was the case with Curry tonight.
3 month 5 day.
The New York Knicks met the Celtics for the third time this season.
This is also the last encounter this season.
Every time they met, the Celtics would undergo tremendous changes because of Li Wan, so the Celtics were in a panic...
I don't know who will be unlucky this time!
Li Wan greeted Yi Jianlian before the game.
In the end, he still did not escape the fate of being sold off by the Nets...
However, compared to being sent out directly, this time it is at least a bargaining chip, which proves that he is very different from the original one.
It is already the second year that Yi Jianlian has changed to play the "space 4th position".
The arrival of David Lee deprived him of his living space in the Nets.
The average playing time has dropped from more than 30 minutes per game to 19.5 minutes, so his average per game this season is not very ideal, but he also reached 8.8 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists.
The three-point shooting rate is 39.8%!
There is still a market.
Even if the Celtics don't plan to keep him, there is actually no need to worry this summer!
In this game, the New York Knicks continued to rest, and Artest and Ray Allen were both on the inactive list.
It was also rare for Li Wan to play a "China OK" game with Dayao.
Boston's strength is also limited, and it collapsed before the end of the second quarter.
In the end, Li Wan scored 24 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists...
It is very easy to cooperate with Dayao, but there is a problem:
It really affected Li Wan's data swiping!
Therefore, it is not a joke to say that Michael Jordan and the others ran to the "small ball era" and averaged [-] points per game at their peak.
In the later "data explosion" era, to a certain extent, it was entirely due to the increase in the number of rounds per game... Otherwise, why there are so many, it is said that the data is impressive, but it is really difficult to talk about the performance of the game. Woolen cloth!
The Knicks' first loss in March was on March 3.
They lost to the Lakers visiting Madison Square Garden...
As usual, in this game, D'Antoni rested Dayao again...
The reason for this game's rotation is quite simple. Although the Lakers are fierce, they may not necessarily meet in the playoffs.
There is no need to fight against such a team...
and so……
This has become another game for Li Wan to brush up the data.
不断掀起快攻潮的他，最终的数据定格在了35分15篮板15助攻2抢断……恐怖的“35加15加15”。
Li Wan didn't know how he generated these data!
Anyway, after the game, he looked at his data form, and these numbers were written.
But look at the final score of this game, 121 to 115...
The ball is in his hands again...
It is quite normal to brush out such data!
科比在这场比赛拿到了24分，德隆-威廉姆斯在这场比赛18分11助攻，保罗-加索尔16分11篮板……
The only one who has no sense of presence is Bynum.
Even without Yao Ming, the Knicks still have Kwame Brown and Shaquille O'Neal at the fifth position.
The two made him docile.
At the end of the game, there were only 7 points and 5 rebounds.
Shaq - O'Neal this guy, the entire season dedicated to playing two people, one is Howard, and the other is Bynum.
Ok……
Just tell me how narrow-minded this guy is!
Judging from this game, Kobe still has some sacrifices. In order to make Deron Williams play more comfortably, Kobe runs without the ball more often.
But his catch and shoot percentage is really exaggerated, as high as 54.3%!
If you count the true shooting percentage, it will almost catch up with Li Wan's mid-range jumper shooting percentage after the pick-and-roll.
Too……
Kobe's mid-range jumper ability must be above 90 no matter what.
The ability to catch and shoot the ball is basically at the All-Star level.
With this ability value, catching up with Li Wan is not a big deal!
And he's not taking as many catch-and-shoot shots as he...
Kobe Bryant is more singles with the ball.
It is not surprising that the sample is small and the hit rate is high!
It was also his sacrifice. After Deron Williams came to the Lakers, he played very calmly.
But at the critical moment, the ball was still in Kobe's hands, and Deron didn't have much opinion on it.
In terms of personality, he is not as extreme as Chris Paul.
Of course, this team is not without problems. Bynum is one of the problems, and another problem is on the bench.
In order to save money, Kupchak traded Jordan Farmar and Vujacic away, and now Odom is gone, and there is Fisher on the bench, which is really useless!
In this game, without Dayao, the Knicks were able to drag the point difference until the last moment, and even overtook the score during the period, because their bench strength was weak.
After losing this game, the Knicks have lost 8 games this season.
The New York media became a little anxious, and began to put pressure on D'Antoni, thinking that he should not rest players all the time, and gave an example: "In the 90s, when did there be a theory of rest?"
When Li Wan saw these reports from the New York media, he rolled his eyes.
This is one of the reasons why the Knicks have been rotten for so many years.
Fans and the media in other cities are all in one place.If the current record of the New York Knicks happened to any other team, I am afraid that the media and fans in this city will be crazy about it.
Only New York!
Of course, after Li Wan's coaching, the New York fans are not so impetuous... But the New York media, as always, can't figure it out, and it's "a disservice" there!
What they want is an absolutely perfect team, so perfect that they have to break all the records before they can be reconciled!
But if in the end, because of breaking the record, the team has physical problems and fails to win the championship, they will also jump out and scold the most fiercely...
Most importantly, Li Wan can't do anything about it!
No matter how noisy the New York fans are, Li Wan scored 83 points in a game, and everyone who should kneel also kneels!
New York media...
I have always been the master who does not take too much trouble when watching the excitement!
In the face of these doubts from his own family, Li Wan's method is also very simple, that is, to stand up and support D'Antoni's decision: "Our record is enough to allow us to enter the playoffs with the number one ranking in the league. Mike's approach, It’s also for this team to perform better in the playoffs. To be honest, rather than breaking the league’s regular season record, I want to bring this team a championship trophy that I haven’t touched in 41 years, or that sentence In other words, I came to New York to make the holy land of basketball worthy of its name!"
Nirvana Ultimate Mystery of...
sincere!
As soon as these words came out, Li Wan didn't need to deal with this group of media. New York fans spontaneously dismissed these media clamoring to break the NBA's best regular season record. On the official websites of major media, some greetings to family members could be seen. Reviews that reflect good qualities.
"The hardest spear" met the "hardest shield", and it turned out that it was more frightening for New York fans to go crazy. The New York media were scared...
No mention of breaking the Bulls record...
Without the interference of external pressure, D'Antoni methodically arranged the rotation. Before the end of March, the Knicks lost 3 more games.
The number of losses officially came to 10 games.
The only chance left for the New York Knicks is to "tie the best record in regular season history."
This time Li Wan and the Knicks did not disappoint the New York media.
In the 4 games in April, they won all of them neatly...
最终纽约尼克斯10~11赛季的战绩定格为72胜10负，追平了公牛队95~96赛季缔造的历史最佳战绩。
Although it failed to create a new record, to be honest, it was already a shock to the outside world to be able to tie this record.
No, when the New York Knicks won the last game of the season on April 4, many media labeled this team "the strongest in history"!
At least in terms of record, they are neck and neck with the Bulls that year.
Now let's see if this team can win the championship like the Bulls... Back then, the Bulls, who won 72 wins and 10 losses, won the final championship after only losing 3 games in the playoffs. Champion, the performance can be called "universe level"!
Many media do not think that this New York Knicks can maintain such momentum in the playoffs.
It's not that they underestimate this team...
Can get a regular season record of 72 wins and 10 losses, who dares to underestimate it?
It's just that the fighting power of other teams this season is also good. Neither the Bulls in the East nor the Heat in third are easy to mess with!
The Spurs and Mavericks in the west are also strong.
Not to mention, there are two "galactic battleships" Lakers and Nets that appeared after the All-Star Weekend...
There are too many fierce men!
Although the New York Knicks have won 72 wins and 10 losses, there are various reasons for it. Not to mention the two newly formed teams, the Heat have also experienced a long period of running-in before slowly showing their strength .
Otherwise, the difficulty for the New York Knicks to win 72 wins and 10 losses may have to rise a lot!
When Li Wan was interviewed after the last game of the season, he was asked "I think I can win the championship after losing a few games in the playoffs".
Li Wan gave the answer with a smile: "If I say what I think, we will win the final championship with a complete victory!"
This is a joke...
He had expected the reporters to be unable to hold back their laughter.
But what Li Wan didn't expect was that after he finished speaking, he saw expressions of astonishment, as if he was asking: You, do you really want to do this, or...
How difficult it is to win the playoffs with a complete victory, just look at history, no team has ever done such a thing!
The "OK combination" in 01 was the closest, but it still lost 1 game...
This is also the reason why Allen Iverson in that year made many fans "love for a lifetime"!
but……
Even if it's hard!
When Li Wan said it, some of these reporters took it seriously!
They really thought Li Wan was going to do this, and they really thought it was possible for Li Wan to do it...
Who made Li Wan do some surprising things since he entered the league?
In the first game of the playoffs in the rookie season, he scored a new high for a rookie in his playoff debut. In the second round, he directly defeated the veteran Pistons, and finally let the Magic reach the Eastern Conference Finals after 14 years;
In the second season of his career, he took another step closer and helped the team win the first championship in team history;
In the third season, it seemed that he was about to miss the playoffs for the first time in his career. He was stunned to "overtake on a curve", entered the playoffs, and even hit a "black eight"...
Three years in his career, the worst result in the Eastern Conference Finals...
Not to mention personal performance, which has repeatedly set new highs this season:
With 83 points in a single game, he surpassed Kobe and became the second-highest player in NBA history to score in a single game.
And after playing the last game of the season, he broke another 51-year-old record:
Triple-double of the season!
Yes……
After playing in February, Li Wan, who averaged 2 rebounds per game, worked hard in March and grabbed 0.2 or 3 rebounds at every turn. In the end, his average rebounds per game in March was a terrifying 3!
In the end, he also locked in a triple-double for the season four or five games ahead of schedule.Became another player to complete this achievement since "Big O".
In addition to this achievement, Li Wan also defeated Kevin Durant with an average of 30.8 points per game and won the final "scoring champion" of the season.
That's 0.4 less assists per game, "only" 11 assists per game, ranking third in the league, behind Steve Nash, who averaged 11.4 assists per game, and Rajon, who averaged 11.2 assists per game. Rondo.
But there is no way, he wants too much this season, and because he competed with Kevin Durant for the "scoring champion" in April, he scored in several games, and he is destined to "attend one thing and lose another"!
But this Li Wan is strong enough, otherwise, how could the reporters be stunned by his sentence "If I say what I think, we will win the final championship with a complete victory"?
A person who has performed like this this season is backed by such a strong team. I am afraid that if he says shit is delicious, these reporters will try it with a skeptical attitude to see if it is delicious...
