Chapter 248 [76 wins and 6 losses, holding it to the clouds]

After the celebrity weekend, all the media reported the results of the game and praised Guo Xu, and at the same time, they also mentioned the topic of "the Lakers' Big Three is about to be disbanded".

President David Stern's method is actually a kind of killing, first lifting Guo Xu to a terrifying height, so that he left the Lakers this summer and then talked about it later.

Other teams will offer high salaries to poach people, Guo Xu can only choose one of them, if he takes a salary cut to stay with the Lakers, his own interests will not be protected at all and will cause people to resent, he will not fail to see it.

If Guo Xu can't lead the team to win after leaving the Lakers, and his popularity plummets, then he will have to figure out his own way.

Soon the trade deadline came, and most teams began to choose to play badly, not expecting to compete with the Lakers for a championship. Only the Mavericks made a big deal with the Nuggets and wanted to fight it in the playoffs.

The Mavericks got Van Exel, Reeve Lafrenz, Avery Johnson, Tariq Abdul Wahad.

The Nuggets acquired Juwan Howard, Donnell Harvey, Tim Hardaway, and a 2002 first-round pick.

Last year's loss to the Lakers was too miserable, and this year's regular season was abused twice, Mavericks coach Nelson Sr. finally realized the importance of the interior meat shield, Lafrentz is still a big man who can shoot three-pointers, which is completely in line with his heart.

This is bad news for Wang Zhizhi, he can only play as a power forward, and cannot play a cameo role as a center, which will inevitably affect his playing time.

This is great news for Chinese center Battle, and there will be Chinese in the NBA arena again!

The Nuggets became a team that was sloppy and didn't have a center, and it was a smooth transition for the bus to renew the rim with Denver, signing a base salary.

Not long after the trade, the Mavericks met the Lakers, and the two sides were divided in three quarters, Guo Xu and Kobe Bryant both cut 30+, helping the Lakers easily defeat the Mavericks.

Nelson Sr. played a two-guard back for a while to step up the offense, bringing Nash and Van Exel together, and the results are predictable.

Van Exel, the "madman" who was responsible for the main defense of Kobe, wanted to ask this old man after being abused, do I have a grudge against you? You traded me for torturing me like this?

Nelson Sr. is very creative in terms of tactics, what he lacks is Phil Jackson's team-building awareness, and the team should not let him decide to bring in reinforcements, and the lineup he made is not reasonable at first glance.

The 82 games of the NBA regular season seem like a long time, and months have passed before you know it. The Lakers lost four games in the second half, to the Kings, Pistons, Spurs, and Trail Blazers.

Among them, the Lakers' away loss to the Trail Blazers was the most wrong, the two sides played two overtimes, and everyone except O'Neal did not shoot well. They had countless chances to win, and the perimeter players took turns playing iron to squander all those chances.

Among them, Guo Xu was the most ruthless, he shot 8 of 25, 2 of 11 three-pointers, 3 of 4 free throws, and only scored 21 points and 5 assists. He had one of his worst games of the season, with a couple of open shots from the outside and a few simple shots against Stadamyre that he missed.

Despite having upset games, the Lakers still set a new regular season record with a 76-6 record, improving by two games.

The Kings are second in the West with 60 wins, and no other team has been able to win 60+ games.

The Clippers emerged as a big underdog, making the playoffs with 45 wins and avoiding the Lakers in seventh place. Bulls fans scolded management for this, and they only won 21 after the trade and were the league's vice president.

The results of the Eastern Conference regular season were a big surprise, with the Nets finishing first in the East with a 52-30 record, the Pistons finishing second with 50 wins, and then the Eastern Conference playoff teams had similar records.

The Heat finished 11th with only 36 wins, making them the fastest-regressing team.

Iverson, who averaged 31.4 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 2.8 steals per game, won the scoring and steal kings.

He also set two historical records, shooting 39.8% to become the lowest shooting percentage scoring champion in NBA history, and his average of 16.7 iron per game is the strongest iron king in professional basketball history, thanks to his accuracy in the second half, otherwise it would have been 17+.

There's only one scoring champion named Joe Fox who shoots less than Iverson. In the 1946-1947 season, in the BAA league that year, Fox won the scoring title with an average of 22.1 points per game, and his 30.5% shooting percentage was jaw-dropping.

Of course, Fox was much luckier than Iverson, not so many fans said that he was a cancer, and no Chinese fans said that about him, after all, China had not yet been liberated at that time.

The Pistons' Ben Wallace won the rebounding and blocking titles, averaging 7.6 points, 13 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.7 steals and 3.5 blocks per game.

The Cavaliers' Andre Miller won the assist title, averaging 16.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 10.9 assists and 1.6 steals per game. It's a pity that the team's record is too poor, and he didn't make the All-Star Game with such data.

In the first round of the playoffs, the strong Lakers easily swept the Jazz, and Guo Xu alone couldn't defend against the Stockton Jazz.

The 40-year-old Stockton still had 13.4 points and 8.2 assists in the regular season, shooting 51.7 percent from the field, but he couldn't keep up with the pace on the defensive end.

Mattin Cliffs off the bench played well in the Jazz regular season and didn't have any physical advantage over Fisher.

In the second round, the Lakers swept the Mavericks again, and it was a wonderful series in which the two teams played high scores and then the Lakers won. Nelson Sr. just fought with the Lakers and lost with dignity.

Looking at the data, the Mavericks players are very fierce, with one person 30+, two people 20+, and one game with four people 20+, and seven people scoring doubles. But the Lakers are even more aggressive, and the Mavericks barely defend from the outside.

The awards were announced one after another, and Guo Xu once again won the best sixth person.

This is very helpless in the league, because Guo Xu only started 27 games, which fully meets the selection criteria, even if he averages 21.8 points and 6 assists per game, it is considered a substitute, and Fisher's data is not even half of him, so it is still a starter.

The Grizzlies' Pau Gasol was named Rookie of the Year and his play was more consistent than teammate Randolph.

Rick Carlisle, who led the Pistons to a second-place finish in the East for the first time in his career as a coach, won the best coach award.

The most improved player is the Pacers' Jermaine O'Neal, who has grown into the interior core of the Pacers, averaging 19 points, 10.5 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.3 blocks per game and becoming an All-Star starter.

The Pistons' Ben Wallace won the Defensive Player of the Year, and the Pistons' good results are not unrelated to his all-round defense.

The best defensive team is still the same group of regulars, the Lakers only Kobe Bryant mixed a second team, O'Neal, who was lazier than last season, was not selected, Guo Xu has nothing to do with this lineup, there is no vote, although he is very close to people, but there is no defensive data.

The regular season MVP was lucky to be won by the Spurs' Tim Duncan, so why say lucky? Because of the Spurs' record, they are third in the West.

O'Neal's stats slipped to an average of 24.2 points and 10.3 rebounds per game and played a short period of time, and he could not win the MVP again; Webber, the core of the Kings team, only played 54 games due to injury; and Kidd of the Eastern Conference champion Nets had a poor record and had to give Duncan a compromise.

In the selection of the best team, Kobe Bryant and O'Neal were selected for a while, and the other three were Kidd, Duncan, and Maddie.

Guo Xu was selected for the second team, and the other four were Payton, Webb, Nowitzki, and Garnett.

The three are Iverson, Mutombo, Ben Wallace, Nash, Jermaine O'Neal.

After Guo Xu beat the scoring champion Iverson as the sixth person and was selected for the second team, he was already recognized as a superstar and was praised to the clouds.
