Chapter 241: Keeping up with the seniors
For those filthy and filthy things in the domestic basketball world, Yi Feng doesn't know much. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info But as an insider, I know a little bit of the skin.
Now the contradiction between Gong Luming and the Basketball Association, which is in a lot of uproar, Yi Feng doesn't care. Who will be the head coach of the men's basketball team does not make much difference to him. Because of those big-name coaches in China, he has never been in contact with any of them. If he could choose, he would rather choose Lei Ming, his mentor at Tsinghua University.
However, Lei Ming is only the coach of the college basketball team, although he is at the top level in CUBA, but in China, where seniority is serious, his qualifications are not in the eyes of the basketball association bigwigs.
In fact, earlier, Yi Feng learned from his agent Zhou Mu that the Basketball Association ordered him to return to China to participate in the training camp.
Commands, which may not be appropriate here. Because Yi Feng is not a player in the system, as an authentic "wild road", he has never been registered in the Basketball Association.
High school leagues, college leagues, all the way, Yi Feng is not a professional player. Although he has received the attention of many professional teams in the CBA, his career as a professional player has crossed the ocean to the United States.
So the Basketball Association actually can't order Yi Feng.
For joining the national team and fighting for the country, Yi Feng will certainly not refuse. But to be honest, for him, the domestic training camp can have little effect, and his NBA season is not over yet, and he can't get out of it for the time being.
The agent team stated these reasons to the Basketball Association truthfully, but they didn't expect the representative of the Basketball Association to slam the door in a rage, and left cruel words on the spot, don't regret it or anything like that.
When Zhou Mu told Yi Feng about the situation, Yi Feng still regretted it a little, and the good opportunity to serve the motherland was gone. Unexpectedly, Zhou Mu was completely inappropriate, Zhou Mu said to Yi Feng at the time: Do you think the power in your girlfriend's family is a decoration?
After that near-fire in the backyard, the relationship between Yi Feng and Tang Ya became even closer. Tang Ya took the initiative to confess her family background to Yi Feng.
For the first time, I learned that my girlfriend's family was so rich.
Tang Group is one of the few Chinese private enterprises to enter the world's top 500. And the chairman of Tang Group is Tang Ya's father.
Although China does not want to be like the United States, capital decides everything, but rich and powerful people naturally have a high status, and the right to speak is not comparable to ordinary people.
Now Yi Feng finally knew why Tang Ya didn't confess her family background to herself. My girlfriend comes from such a wealthy family, anyone will feel pressure, right?
However, Yi Feng did not feel how unattainable Tang Ya was, nor would he be afraid of the family background behind her.
After getting along for such a long time, he already knew how Tang Ya was a person; And with her family's background, it is impossible not to know that she already has a boyfriend, but no one has come out to stop her until now, which shows that her family is open-minded. The contact with Tang Han and Tang Xuan's brothers and sisters also proves this.
The most important thing is that although Yi Feng knows that he has a bad heart that he can't change, he is sure that he can bring new happiness to Tang Ya. With her current income, her excitement is guaranteed, at least materially.
Although athletes eat all the rice of youth, Yi Feng is confident that in addition to his outstanding physical fitness, he also has a superhuman mind, no matter what industry he is engaged in, he will stand out.
Love is built on a material foundation, which can provide superior material conditions, and Yi Feng also has the confidence to bring Tang Ya happiness.
Zhou Mu suddenly mentioned this, and Yi Feng was also stunned. Yes, there is such a great god by his side, what are you afraid of?
As a result, it didn't take long for the representative of the Basketball Association to slam the door with a smiling face, saying that after the NBA season ended, Yi Feng could enjoy a vacation and then report back to China.
The Basketball Association's deferential attitude made Yi Feng more aware of the truth of this world, or the law of survival. Money, or power, a man must have one, otherwise it will be difficult to move an inch in this world.
On March 30, the Los Angeles Lakers challenged the Miami Heat away.
In this game, Dwyane Wade played 39 minutes, scoring 26 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists on 12-of-21 shooting.
In addition, Lore Deng recorded a double-double of 22 points and 11 rebounds, and rebounded the Heat's backcourt to a big man on the inside. Hassan Whiteside, who came off the bench, even scored a double-double of 18 points and 17 rebounds!
The Heat had three rebounds in double figures, and they did play well. But although only Randle got more than ten rebounds on the Lakers' side, the final victory still belonged to the Lakers.
A rebound is a possession of the ball, and controlling the rebound is largely equivalent to controlling the game. However, although the Heat seem to have a lot of rebounds, in fact, the rebounding data is concentrated in the hands of Wade, Deng and Whiteside, and the Heat's total rebounds are only 6 more than the Lakers.
After playing the Heat, the Lakers' March games are over, and the season is only left with the final seven regular season games in April.
On April 3, the NBA officially announced the Player of the Month for March, with LeBron James of the Cavaliers and Russell Westbrook of the Thunder being named the Eastern and Western Player of the Month, respectively.
LeBron James led the Cavaliers to an 11-5 record in the last March, with the Cavaliers going 10-4 in the games he played.
Over the past month, James averaged 25.6 points per game, second in the East, and also averaged 7.1 assists and 8.2 rebounds per game.
Throughout March, James had seven double-doubles and two triple-doubles. In the Cavaliers' win over the Nets, James scored 24 points and became the 11th player on the NBA's all-time scoring list.
On the Western side, Westbrook defeated Curry and Yi Feng, who were highly demanded, and was elected Western Conference Player of the Month.
Over the past month, he has led the Thunder to an 11-5 record. In addition to his excellent team record, Westbrook has a luxury stature that is close to averaging a triple-double per game, which is also a powerful weapon for him: he averages 21.7 points, 10.6 assists and 8.3 rebounds per game.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that the Warriors' Draymond Green and Westbrook have been crazy about these triple-doubles this season. Green had the advantage early in the season, but it was Westbrook who had the upper hand so far.
In the past month, Westbrook has recorded seven triple-doubles in a single month, tying the NBA all-time record set by Michael Jordan in April 1989! However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the old hooligan Jordan set a record of seven triple-doubles in April, which is already a few regular season games, and it is clear that Mi Weisbrook has more gold.
Westbrook has now recorded 16 triple-doubles this season, second only to the 17 set by "Magic" Johnson. Whether he can equal or even set a new record is also expected by many people.
And in today's home game against the Trail Blazers, Green got his 13th triple-double of the season, and he still has a long way to go from the current state of Dawei Shao.
In addition, Westbrook has nine double-doubles in assists in a single month, including a career-high 19 assists against the Clippers.
Also nominated for the Month award this time are: Paul Millsap (Hawks), Kemba Walker (Hornets), Isaiah Thomas (Celtics), Dirk Nowitzki (Mavericks), Stephen Curry (Warriors), Easy Wind (Lakers), Klay Thompson (Warriors), James Harden (Rockets), Hassan Whiteside (Heat), Kevin Durant (Thunder), Damion Lillard (Trail Blazers), LaMarcus Aldridge (Spurs), Kawhi Leonard (Spurs), DeMar DeRozan (Raptors).
At the same time as the Player of the Month was announced, the Rookie of the Month was also officially announced.
The Miami Heat's second-round pick Josh Richardson and the Los Angeles Lakers' No. 1 pick Yi Feng were selected respectively. Unlike Yifeng's dominance of the Western Rookie of the Month Award, the eastern region is gradually showing a situation of a hundred flowers contending.
Kristaps Porzingis won three consecutive Rookie of the Month awards before being snatched away by Myles Turner, and now he won't be eligible for the Rookie of the Month award in March.
In the end, he is not strong enough to suppress all his peers in the East.
Richardson helped the Heat to a 10-5 record in March.
He averaged 12 points and 2.1 assists per game, both of which led any rookie in the East, and his 53.7 percent shooting percentage and 58.9 percent three-point shooting this month were among the best in the rookie. With such an exaggerated hit rate, people almost thought he was playing an NBA2K series of games.
In addition, he averaged 1.3 steals per game, second only to Yi Feng's 1.5.
This month, Richardson averaged 29.1 minutes per game and scored in double figures in eight of the 10 games the Heat played between March 9 and March 28. He showed his versatility in the Heat's 124-119 overtime win over the Nuggets on March 15: he scored 17 points (4-of-5 from three-point range), 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 blocks and 2 steals.
Compared with Richardson, a rookie, Yi Feng is already a veteran of the rookie of the month podium.
Yi Feng has won the best rookie in the West for 5 consecutive months, and one more is short of winning all of this season's Rookie of the Month. It's not uncommon for people to win all Rookie of the Month awards, and there are quite a few.
Since the 1981-82 Rookie of the Month award was set in the league, a total of eight players have achieved all of the Rookie of the Month awards in a season: Ralph Sampson in 1983-84, David Robinson in 1989-90, Tim Duncan in 1997-98, Carmelo Anthony and LeBron James in 2003-04, and Chris Paul in 2005-06. Blake Griffin in 2010-11 and Damion Lillard in 2012-13.
Everyone else is outstanding, but in the 2003-04 season, Anthony and James competed for dominance, which was a rare legend in the NBA. It's a pity that today's Anthony is no longer as brave as he used to be, things are not people, it's a pity! Alas!
Yi Feng is very hopeful to get closer to these 8 seniors!
Over the past month, he averaged 31.9 points per game, the highest among all rookies, while averaging 5.7 rebounds per game is the third highest among all rookies and shooting second among all rookies at 51.4 percent.
He led the Lakers to start with a seven-game winning streak last month, and ended up with an 11-4 record, which is also very competitive to compete for the Player of the Month, and it is actually a little unfair to other rookies in the competition for Rookie of the Month.
In addition to Richardson and Yi Feng, the other players nominated for the March East-West Rookie of the Month are: Emmanuel Moodier (Nuggets), Kristaps Porzingis (Knicks), Devin Booker (Suns), Karl Anthony Towns (Timberwolves), Norman Powell (Raptors).
Plus, Charlotte Hornets head coach Steve Clifford and Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr were named East and West Coach of the Month for March for their respective teams' outstanding performances in March.
The fact that two Steves won the Coach of the Month honor at the same time is also a good story.
This is the second time Clifford has been named Coach of the Month, and he led the Hornets to a 13-3 record in the East in March, and the 13 wins are the Hornets' all-time record in a single month.
In March, the Hornets started their seven-game winning streak with an average of 15.1 points per game. The Hornets rank second in the East with 109.2 points per game, eight home wins, and their home win tally stands at 27, the most in the Eastern Conference.
Clifford last won Coach of the Month in April 2014 and is now the fourth coach in Hornets history to be named Coach of the Month at least twice.
After the Hornets defeated the Timberwolves on March 7 local time, Clifford ranked third in the history of the Hornets in coaching wins, and his current coaching record is negative.
Kerr led the Warriors to a best-in-class 15-2 record in the West, with the Warriors winning seven straight games from March 7 to 18 (losing to the Lakers on March 6 and the Spurs on March 19), followed by a six-game winning streak to end the month.
The Warriors lead the league with 114 points per game and rank second in the West on 47.9 percent shooting. The Warriors currently have a 68-7 record, which makes them the only two teams in history to have won at least 65 in two consecutive seasons, compared to the Bulls in '97.
This is the third time in Kerr's career that he has won the Coach of the Month title, and he also became the most decorated head coach of the month in the history of the Warriors.
It was also the second time this season that a Warriors coach won the Coach of the Month award, the last time being Wharton's Coach of the Month award in November. Cole's previous two awards were in January 2015 and March 2015.
Other nominees for Coach of the Month are Budenholzer of the Atlanta Hawks, Stan Van Gundy of the Detroit Pistons, Spoelstra of the Miami Heat, Donovan of the Oklahoma City Thunder, Vic of the San Antonio Spurs and Casey of the Toronto Raptors. (To be continued.) )
