Chapter 411: Double Array

Wu Huang felt that if he continued to fight like this, he would be replaced to watch the play after three quarters today. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info The others obviously didn't want to go down to rest so soon, so the Knicks players were very tacit in the second half and only attacked and not defended, and began to release water.

Of course, the Knicks players know that it's easy to play like this, but they all have the confidence that they can put the Pacers back down after the score is over.

Of course, if you have the strength to fight like this, it is not called death, this is called self-confidence, and those who do not have the strength to die are called inadequate.

The Pacers are the opposite now, they actually have the quality, and Wu Huang also feels that although his team can beat the Pacers, it will not play so easily. But it doesn't matter, it doesn't stop him from scoring in the second half, and they don't care about the Pacers' problems.

D'Antoni saw the problem of the opponent, the Pacers players were either too relaxed today, or they were still restrained, which is very similar to the Bulls and Lakers dynasty period, as long as there are no more than two mature stars in the team, the Bulls and Lakers are not confident in the face of the Bulls and Lakers at that time, they know very well that once this kind of championship team is serious, it is difficult for them to make mistakes, so why bother to fight?

In addition to the lack of self-confidence, the biggest problem of the Pacers in this series is actually Granger, the core of the Pacers does not have the confidence to lead his team to beat the Knicks, he thinks in his heart that the two sides are too different in the lineup, Hibbert is his only helper, but this guy is not an All-Star player. As for the two Georges, one is a Spurs outcast, and he is still facing the first person in the league, and this round of the series is basically a waste one; The other George is a second-year rookie, and the key is that he also threatens his position.

Granger himself is not having a good time, he has to face Iguodala and Battier's rotation of defense, so many disadvantages that he does not have the confidence to lead the team to beat the Knicks. Since even his nominal core has lost confidence, the whole team has lost its backbone, and it is naturally vulnerable in front of the Knicks.

If the Pacers can play team basketball like the Rockets, play the tenacity of the little man and refuse to admit defeat, although it is still against the sky, it can at least make this round of the series more exciting, and it will not make the Knicks so unscrupulous to score points.

In the third quarter, the Knicks players didn't defend at all, and even a guy like Tony Allen, who makes a living on defense, was also bent on scoring points after he came on the court.

This season, Tony Allen and Danny Green both dropped to just over 10 minutes after their playing time was challenged by Battier. Gallinari is okay, although he lost his starting position, but after switching to the sixth man, the playing time has not changed much, but both of them have no place in the team.

Playing time is important for these young players, and without playing time there are no stats and performances, and without stats and performances there are no big contracts, so they all have the intention of leaving the Knicks. However, the Knicks don't want to trade these two now, and Battier is old and it is difficult to maintain a high attendance rate all the time, so these two defensive and reliable outside players must leave at least one left, otherwise as soon as Battier is injured, they will have no one available.

Wu Huang thinks that George Hill's defense is actually good, don't look at his efficiency today, but this guy is basically in place for his defense, change a player with poor defense to defend him, and he is likely to hit 50+, or even 60+ today.

In the second half, Wu Huang's hand began to decline, and George Hill's defense should have had a more significant effect, but Wu Huang reduced his shots in time after discovering that his hand was declining, and began to increase the number of breakthrough points, and his goal was quickly changed to a "triple-double".

This season, Wu Huang's desire to score has been decreasing, and his thirst for statistics is not as strong as in the previous two seasons, because he has seen the effect of the championship. When he got the ring, no one thought James was better than him, and few people publicly refuted his remarks, so he really realized that the effect of the championship was greater than when he got 30+10+10.

Of course, the reason why he doesn't care about scoring is more because opponents can't limit him in all aspects.

If you want to limit his attack, it is difficult to take care of his passing.

Therefore, Wu Huang's mentality will get better and better, once he is difficult to score and can't get assists, then it will be seen if his mentality will be so calm.

David West has benefited the most from the pass-focused Wu Huang, and for him to fully play to his strengths, he must have an All-Star point guard to deliver him cannonballs, and if he is allowed to shoot in a disruptive environment, his output firepower will be stronger than Gasol's.

David West was in such an environment in the third quarter, and Gasol used his footwork advantage to keep Hibbert away from the Knicks' main offensive direction. The Pacers' black tower center did not dare not move with Gasol, which allowed David West to always get opportunities to shoot in areas where the defense was weak, and in the third quarter, under the feeding of Wu Huang, David West shot 5 of 7.

Iguodala kept sneaking up on the back of the Pacers, and his baseline interspersed made the Pacers' defense even more anxious today, and it was enough of a headache to deal with the two All-Star interior and Wu Huang, and Iguodala's sneak attack made their chrysanthemum parts bleed.

The Knicks' two-sided, or even three-sided, attack makes the Pacers unguardable.

The Madison Garden echoed the cheers of the fans, and although the Knicks didn't defend much in the third quarter, they still widened the lead with the output firepower of the siege from all sides.

When Wu Huang left the game, he looked at the score of 95:74 on the scoreboard, and knew that he would not be able to play again in the fourth quarter, but unfortunately his statistics were only 31 points, 8 rebounds and 10 assists, and he was still 2 rebounds short of the goal of a triple-double.

"It's hard to grab rebounds this year." Wu Huang shook his head secretly after leaving the court, D'Antoni no longer used him to rush for rebounds this year, and in order to strengthen the effect of counterattacking, he prioritized fast shots in most offensive and defensive transitions, which made him lose a lot of defensive rebounds.

"Hugo, you play with the bench for a while in the fourth quarter." The mustache didn't press Wu Huang on the bench in the fourth quarter this time, this guy just got the MVP today, and he was only two rebounds away from making a triple-double, and if he didn't let him play at this time, he would definitely be complained by the fans.

His decision was correct, Wu Huang was only two rebounds away from getting a triple-double, if he wasn't allowed to play, D'Antoni would inevitably be sprayed with blood by the 60e followers after the game!

The Knicks players are also very sensible, and in the fourth quarter, they collectively covered Wu Huang to grab the rebound, but what embarrassed Hibbert happened, he actually didn't rob Wu Huang?

Even Wu Huang and Knicks fans don't believe in this result, but when Wu Huang used his sense of smell for rebounding twice in a row to get into the advantageous position of the owner in advance, and then took the rebound from Hibbert's head, there was also Hibbert who was as confused as him, and he couldn't believe that his height of 216cm couldn't grab Wu Huang with a height of 196cm?

Barkley laughs the most happily, he doesn't like to stand with Wu Huang very much, because his interior line is only a little higher than Wu Huang's point guard, once the angle of standing is not good, or Wu Huang's slut wears the inner height, then the height of the two of them is about the same, which of course makes him very embarrassed.

But this also explains why Hibbert was robbed of rebounds twice by Wu Huang on the one hand, don't forget that Big Ass was admired by Rodman in rebounding back then, so a 20cm gap does not guarantee that Hibbert can dominate the rebound, and it is normal for Wu Huang to grab two rebounds on his head, as long as he is in a good position and jumps half a second early, this is completely enough to offset the 20cm height difference.

Hibbert's face can't hold back, he has been criticized for his poor rebounding ability, with his height averaging less than 9 rebounds per game, any explanation is superfluous.

Wu Huang did not compete with Hibbert, he once again pretended to be forced and ran, and immediately signaled D'Antoni to replace after grabbing two rebounds.

The unwilling Hibbert watched Wu Huang walk off the court, his face was already red, he knew that the media would definitely grab those two rebounds and criticize his rebounding ability again, and even ridiculed him for not being able to grab a point guard.

Wu Huang didn't think that his rebounds were really so good, his two rebounds had a big sneak attack component, and if he grabbed it, nine out of nine would be counter-killed, so it was the wisest thing to run after pretending to be forced, and he didn't give the opponent a chance to return it at all.

The Pacers were hit by Wu Huang's triple-double stats again, they knew that this guy was back on the court in the fourth quarter to brush up on the triple-double, and the Pacers immediately replaced Hibbert to obstruct Wu Huang's good deeds, but they were slapped twice instead, and the only bit of self-confidence left was gone.

31 points, 10 rebounds, 11 assists - these are the stats that Wu Huang got in the second game of the series, and he celebrated his winning the regular season MVP with a perfect triple-double performance and a series 2-0.

The New York Times used a photoshopped photo after the game to report on Emperor Wu's MVP and the victory of the game, which was originally an image of Aragorn holding a sword in The Lord of the Rings, but now it has been replaced with an image of Emperor Wu holding a ball, and the title is "King of Kings".

The moral is obvious, and with Peter Jackson's trilogy, The Lord of the Rings has taken off a global fantasy craze, with a spectacular story of kings, rangers, samurai, elves, monsters, all expected to get the Lord of the Rings - it's like another world in reality: the NBA. Especially those who are most tormented by the desire for a championship ring, they are like the characters in the movie, each with their own abilities, heroes, but so humble in front of the Lord of the Rings.

Emperor Wu is now clearly the king of kings among these heroes, and his status in the NBA at the moment is like that of Aragorn in The Lord of the Rings, who is the "king of Middle-earth" in that world, and Wu Huang is the king of the NBA.

The "New York Times" was not going to brag about Emperor Wu like this, but whoever let the Holy Sect Master be too blind in his speech, of course they couldn't be modest at this time, otherwise they would be dragging the Sect Leader back, so the New York Times could only follow the Holy Sect Master and become arrogant.

"! With only one ring, you dare to say that you are the king of kings? This is the opinion of many people, but they don't dare to blatantly vent their dissatisfaction, because the current Emperor Wu is too bright, and no one will be stupid enough to be insulted when the other party is at the peak. These people who hate Emperor Wu are waiting for him to be unlucky, or to go up and stomp on him when he goes downhill, but can they wait for this opportunity?

Obviously, in a short period of time, they can't wait for this kind of opportunity......

On May 14, the day of the second series of the NBA's home-and-away alternate, the All-Defensive First Team, Second Team, and All-Defensive First Team, Second Team, and Third Team were announced.

The NBA's official announcement of this season's "Defensive Team of the Year" came as a surprise to many, and it was not surprising that the Heat's James received 20 No. 1 votes and 10 No. 2 votes to be selected to the All-Defensive First Team. But Ibaka and Howard were also selected for the defensive team, while Chandler was not selected for the defensive team, which is hard to guess. Of course, the most surprising thing is that Wu Huang actually blended into the defensive formation, and he had a full 10 points more than Chris Paul.

Wu Huang also felt very unbelievable after getting the news, he knew very well that he only occasionally defended seriously in the regular season, and most of the games he put water and stealth on the defensive end, and as a result, the head coach of these teams would actually select him into the defensive period, which he did not expect in advance.

He doesn't feel like he's in the defensive squad because the All-Defensive Team selection is different from the Defensive Player of the Year selection, which is chosen by the NBA's thirty coaches, and the latter, which is chosen by NBA reporters and commentators, so there will inevitably be differences in results, and everyone knows that the head coaches of each team are definitely much more professional than those reporters and commentators.

That would explain why Defensive Player of the Year Tyson Chandler was not selected to the All-Defensive First Team.

NBA managers will select five players each from their first and second teams, but they will not be able to choose players from their own team, and players who are listed on the first team will receive two points, while players who are listed on the second team will receive one point.

In the final selection results, James received the highest number of votes without any suspense, reaching a total of 50 points, and he was the only player to exceed 50 points. In addition to James, the other four players selected for the first team of the All-Defensive Team are Ibaka, Howard, Wu Huang and Paul, of which Wu Huang actually scored the third highest 41 points in the defensive team, and he scored one more point than Ibaka.

It is worth mentioning that Chandler, the Defensive Player of the Year, was only selected to the All-Defensive Second Team, and he scored a team-high 32 points. In addition, Bryant scored 17 points and was only selected to the second team of the All-Defensive Team, and his record of being selected to the first team for six consecutive years also came to an end.

All-Defensive Team List -

All-Defensive First Team: Chris Paul, Wu Huang, LeBron James, Sergi Ibaka, Dwight Howard.

All-Defensive Second Team: Rajon Rondo, Kobe Bryant, Roel Deng, Kevin Garnett, Tyson Chandler.

Wu Huang felt that he could get into the defensive second at most, but compared to Rondo, he is likely to be unable to compete. While he doesn't feel like he's worse defensively than anyone else, he does work a lot worse on the defensive end than Rondo.

But he forgot that the reputation of the player can determine everything to a large extent, just like Kobe Bryant has been selected for the defensive team for 6 consecutive years, in fact, except for the first few years, Kobe Bryant no longer plays hard defense, he is also selective to show his defensive ability, but in the end these coaches still voted for him.

Wu Huang is the same as Kobe, they choose to play serious games basically in the strong dialogue, this kind of game media and fans will have a very high attention, so as long as they show their defensive ability in these key games, fans will not care about them and the stealth in the fish belly team, anyway, those games can be won without their hard defense, so who will be in their defense or not.

The same is true for these voting coaches, like the head coaches of teams like Bobcats and Cavaliers, of course, they will not vote for Wu Huang because he doesn't defend well when he plays against them, they will evaluate Wu Huang according to his games with Heat, Bulls, Thunder and other teams, so there was a scene where Wu Huang's votes were very high.

These coaches believe that Wu Huang can form a certain limit on Westbrook, Rose, Paul and others, and can switch many No. 2 players, which can greatly improve the Knicks' defensive efficiency. At the same time, he is also very good at helping defense, and it is not uncommon to see him suddenly hitting the inside or wing and causing the opponent's ball-handler to make mistakes, which are the references for coaches to vote on.

The NBA also announced the All-NBA Team of the Season: Wu Huang, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Dwight Howard were unsurprisingly named to the First Team; The second lineup is Chris Paul, Derrick Rose, Carmelo Anthony, Blake Griffin and Pau Gasol; Russell Westbrook, Dwyane Wade, Paul Pearce, Dirk Nowitzki and Yao Ming were named to the third team.

Chinese fans said that as they expected, Yao Ming basically booked the third team in advance every season as long as he was healthy. But this is really too bad, especially this year's Yao Ming obviously played a bigger role than Gasol in the Knicks, but the second team was still given to the white-skinned Spaniard.

Of course, Wu Huang can't say anything about it, he feels that these two people play a similar role, and it makes sense who enters the second lineup, so the white skin must be more popular.

In fact, don't talk about Yao Ming, if he doesn't win the championship, James doesn't go to the Heat, and his personal data is still as perverted as in previous seasons, then his MVP will definitely be snatched away by the Gorilla or Durant and others, because in the case of similar performance, he can't compete with whites and blacks.

This is the second time that Wu Huang has entered the best team for two consecutive years, but there is still a gap compared to James's data. The latter has been named to the first team for the fifth consecutive year and the top three of the All-Star team for the sixth consecutive year.

The only deficiency of Emperor Wu now is that he has not yet formed a long-term ruling power, which will take time to accumulate.

Kobe Bryant is obviously a superstar who is starting to move away from the main stage, but as the third-place average in points per game in the regular season, he is still selected to the All-Star First Team for the seventh consecutive year, and in fact, this master is the one Wu Huang should surpass. In addition, Bryant was named to the All-NBA First Team 10 times in his career, and no other active player can compete with him in this regard. Bryant only needs to be named to the NBA All-NBA First Team one more time to tie Karl Malone and become the player with the most first team selections in NBA history.

It's a pity that the boss at this time has gone home to fish, even though he has accumulated a lot of honors in the past, but not many people are still paying attention to him at this moment.

This is the cruelty of reality, once you lose your power, you will soon be forgotten, unless you create a record that future generations can only look up to, which can make a large number of people with a lot of ancient and modern people repeatedly mention your name. And this is what Emperor Wu is ready to do now...... (To be continued.) )
