In addition, Yi Jianlian once again became the player with the most three-point shots, averaging 2.8 three-pointers per game this season, making a total of 228 three-pointers, becoming the player with the most three-pointers for the second consecutive year.

It's a good time.

In this period of the league, the old generation of three-point king Ray Allen can no longer maintain the level of throwing more than 200 three-pointers in a season because of tactical adjustments and his own age, and the new generation of three-point shooting masters like Stephen Curry has not fully grown up, Yi Jianlian is already the league's top three-point shooter with his shooting ability.

He has made 228 three-pointers this season, behind Ray Allen, and "Gentleman's Sword" has only made 195 three-pointers, a 33-point deficit to him.

Curry is fifth on the list and has made 175 three-pointers over the course of the season, which is a little less than in his rookie season, but that's also because he has played six fewer games this season than he did in his rookie season, otherwise Curry would have made almost 190 three-pointers this season.

That's enough to put him in the top three.

There is another guy who has survived, DeAndre Jordan ranks first in the list of shooting percentages per game, averaging 70.3% per game and scoring 10.3 points per game, becoming the most efficient player in the NBA.

Jordan Jr. also relied on this efficiency to become one of the league's top blue-collar players favored by many experts at the end of the season.

All the experts agree that Little Jordan's value will definitely skyrocket!

Of course, this is!

Even fans can see that DeAndre Jordan's value will definitely skyrocket, and even if his scoring efficiency is not so efficient, he will definitely occupy an important position in the league.

After all, the pace of the league is speeding up, and a man with a physical fitness like him who can run and jump has become more and more fragrant!

Jordan Jr. is an example, and Humphries is an example as well!

They are all beneficiaries of the changing times and will both get a big contract at the end of their current contract.

At the end of the regular season, the top eight teams in the east and west are gearing up, and the rest of the teams go home to fish in advance, at the same time, a big event happened in the NBA, and it is an earth-shattering thing for the entire Chinese basketball Yao Ming announced the end of his career and officially retired!

In a short announcement, Yao Ming stated that he would not only retire from the NBA, but also completely retire from the national team!

Although there have been various indications that Yao Ming is likely to retire in the previous period, when this moment really comes, not only the entire Chinese basketball circle will be shaken, but the NBA will also be shocked.

Yao Ming's former teammate Maddie specially changed his profile picture to a picture of Yao Ming wearing the No. 13 jersey in the national team, and wrote: "Yes, as far as Yao Ming is concerned, for 300 million Chinese basketball fans, he will definitely enter the Hall of Fame." Yao Ming's talent, his personality and his drive have attracted many new fans to NBA games. I wish Yao Ming continued success in all the challenges of his life. ”

Dawson, who chose him back then, said regretfully: "On this earth, I am Yao Ming's biggest fan, and I have witnessed his personality and character. He's only in his 30s, but it's very sad for me to have to leave the ring, and I always feel very sorry when I talk about it, and I'm a very emotional person. You know, Olajuwon didn't start leading the Rockets into winning mode until he was 31 years old, and the big man was relatively late in the progress process, which is unfair. ”

……

In addition to the Rockets' players and former general manager, many NBA stars have sent their blessings, and the influence is enough to prove that Yao Ming is the league's supergiant.

Yi Jianlian naturally expressed his blessings through Twitter, and he also called Yao Ming and communicated with him.

"The national team will be handed over to you next!"

Before hanging up the phone, Yao Ming said the most important entrustment, although after Yi Jianlian won the championship last year, all Chinese fans have regarded him as one of the captains of the national team, but now Yi Jianlian heard Yao Ming's words, and he really felt the torch inheritance!

From now on, the person who is closely tied to the national team has become him Yi Jianlian, and he will bear the brunt of all the honors and failures in the future!

Yi Jianlian is not averse to fighting for the country, this is the duty and obligation of every Chinese player, but since then, there has been an extra layer of label, and Yi Jianlian suddenly felt the pressure.

However, Yi Jianlian also had to resist this pressure, just like Yao Ming back then, they didn't have a choice!

At the same time as Yao Ming announced his retirement, ESPN experts were not idle, they made predictions for the upcoming playoffs, and if you only look at the first round of this year's playoffs, there are actually few sets of confrontations that are in suspense.

"The Spurs' style has changed a lot this season, their overall offensive tempo has increased and they have become one of the fastest teams in the league to switch between offense and defense, if someone had told me before the start of the season that such a team is the Spurs, I think I would definitely fight back with all the expletives I can think of, but the truth is that Greg is like a magic old man, he pushes an old car that is about to be scrapped into the high speed, such a team, I think the Memphis Grizzlies are very difficult to parry! However, they have improved a lot this season, and they had a chance to go further, but now it seems that they have been a little less lucky this season, and if they can win one more game against the Hornets, then they can move up to seventh place and avoid the Spurs! ”

The Spurs, who are the No. 1 team in the West and the No. 1 record in the league, faced the Grizzlies in the first round, and all the experts are optimistic that they will knock out the Grizzlies 4-0.

……

"Although the Nuggets are without Carmelo Anthony, they still climbed to the fifth place in the West this season, however, the current Nuggets team lacks superstars, facing the Thunder team with Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, they are likely to be at a disadvantage at critical moments, and one of the more regrettable things is that with the strength of the Nuggets, they are unlikely to be able to lead the Thunder by too many points!"

Most pundits predict that the final score of the Thunder and Nuggets is 4-1, and in their opinion, the Nuggets will not be able to go far in the playoffs without superstars.

The predictions for the East are similar to those for the West, with a wide margin of disparity, and the only group of games that they would think will be a tough game is between the Magic, who are fourth in the East, and the Celtics, who are fifth in the East, which will be played in seven games according to many experts.

As for the other matchups, most of them are 4-0 or 4-1.
