Chapter 312: The record is not easy to break
After February, the Knicks maintained their record at 45-12 and continued to lead the Eastern Conference. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After Wu Huang played in February, he has a slight decline in various statistics, but he has not suffered injuries this season, except for a few games suspended, he played a total of 52 games, playing an average of 39.9 minutes per game, contributing 31.9 points, 6.9 rebounds, 10.4 assists, 3.2 steals, 1.1 blocks and 3.8 turnovers. He shot 52.9 percent from the field, 43.8 percent from three-point range and 90.9 percent from the free throw line.
It is worth mentioning that in these 52 games, Wu Huang scored a total of 7 triple-doubles. Although he has not had another triple-double in the last dozen games, this statistic is enough for him to win the triple-double this season. It's just that it may be difficult to surpass Kidd's 13 triple-doubles in a single season, let alone surpass the Magic's 17 triple-doubles in a single season, and there is certainly little hope for this season.
Wu Huang has always had a strong desire to break the record of his predecessors, and Kidd's record of 13 triple-doubles in a single season is his goal at this stage, and he hopes to complete it in his first three seasons before starting the journey of his next goal - the Magic's record of 17 triple-doubles in a single season.
In fact, Magic also has Oscar Robertson, who had 41 triple-doubles in 1961-62, and Wilt Chamberlain, who had 31 triple-doubles in 1967-68. But these two records happened too early, and the data of that era were very wet, and most of the data before the 80s could not be used as a standard to compare with the present, so as long as Emperor Wu surpassed the records of magicians, he could shout "I am the triple king of history".
As for whether he can win the "Player of the Month" award in February, Wu Huang is naturally full of confidence in this.
There is no reason for the league to award this award to others this month, and his performance has declined slightly in the middle of the season, and this is the case in the whole league, but Wu Huang still got an average of 30+6+9 data per game in February, and the team's record is good enough, and no one in the East can compete with him, so this award naturally belongs to him.
At the same time, on the scoring list, Wu Huang's average of 31.9 points per game almost locked this title in advance. Durant, who ranked second, The average score per game has dropped to 27.8 points, and it is impossible to compete with him anymore; the same is true for the steal king, Wu Huang's average of 3.2 steals per game is far ahead of the second-ranked Chris Paul, who only averages 2.4 steals per game, and it is impossible to overtake him when he has completed two-thirds of the season; unfortunately in the assist list, Wu Huang's average of 10.4 assists per game is temporarily behind Nash and Rondo, especially the first-ranked Nash is currently a lot ahead of him on this list, and it is unlikely that Wu Huang wants to surpass the other party.
Wu Huang can also try to hit the 190 Club at the moment, which is a unique milestone in history. Although Steve Kerr did this feat in the 1995 season, it was later deemed invalid because he did not meet the player's requirements for hitting at least 300 shots, 82 three-pointers, and 125 free throws throughout the season. If there is no hard indicator, Yao Ming has also won 240+ clubs.
In the NBA, a player is already excited to achieve a 50+40+90 shooting percentage in a single season, which is to enter a 180 club, which is also the identity of the top scorers, only five players in NBA history have done it (Steve Nash, Larry Bird, Mark Price, Reggie Miller, Dirk Nowitzki). But the difference is that Wu Huang is getting closer to his own club step by step, and he is likely to become the tip of the pyramid of this record.
The league usually awards the "Player of the Month" award on the 5th of each month, before that, the Knicks will face the Orlando Magic at home on the 1st, then back-to-back away games against the Hornets, and then on the 4th will have to go to the Cavaliers on the road.
However, this devil's schedule is not for the Knicks, "Devil's March" is a common trouble for 30 teams in the league, because most of the schedule in February is too easy, everyone has to pay off their debts in March, and the Knicks are no exception, they have to play 18 games this month, and a total of 6 back-to-back games are waiting for them.
"It's difficult, but it's the same for everyone, and we're confident that we can win more than 60 percent in March. Besides, the league is likely to face a shutdown next season, and once the final schedule is shortened, we may have to face such a devilish schedule every month, so now should be a preview of it. Wu Huang mentioned the shutdown crisis next season before facing the Magic, and judging from the various news obtained at this moment, the differences between labor and management are not ordinarily large, equivalent to the players saying 1, and the bosses are saying 9, which is by no means a contradiction that can be resolved through one or two negotiations.
Now that most of the media and players feel that the shutdown next season is inevitable, it depends on how long it will be stopped, and Wu Huang thinks that he will have to reduce it by ten games, right?
Howard's visit to New York this time can be described as aggressive, Warcraft felt that he was greatly humiliated in the All-Star Game, this game is his shameful day, he must give Wu Huang a good look, and at the same time let everyone know that his importance is far higher than Wu Huang.
Wu Huang mocked before the game: "Someone should get the home advantage in the first round of the playoffs first, and then talk about anything else, can he still make it to the second round this season?" I think that's probably a hard question for magic to answer. ”
The 2010-2011 season has completed two-thirds of the way, the Eastern standings have stabilized, at least who can make the playoffs, at this time it is already eight or nine ten, and then everyone is fighting for a higher ranking.
1. New York Knicks (45-12).
2. Chicago Bulls (37-19).
3. Miami Heat (35-22).
4. Boston Celtics (34-23).
5. Orlando Magic (31-26).
6. Atlanta Hawks (29-28).
7. Milwaukee Bucks (24-34).
8. Indiana Pacers (23-34).
Howard is now not confident enough to speak, even if he shouts loudly, the media and fans will not take his words to heart, who has made the Magic continue to regress this season, even if they bring back the Turkish agents, but Orlando still can't find the state to reach the Finals a few years ago, and almost everyone on this team is currently regressing except for Howard.
Wu Huang's confidence comes from the team's performance, the Knicks have always had a bonus state at home, they only lost three games at home this season, and one was during Wu Huang's ban, and now the Magic has little chance of winning here, even if Howard only rested for two minutes, but under the blow of Wu Huang's 36 points, 8 rebounds and 9 assists and Xiao Si's 30 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, the Magic still lost to the Knicks 101:109.
Howard scored 30 points, 16 rebounds and 5 blocks, and even played a super-standard free throw, making 12 of 17 free throws that even he couldn't believe, but in the end the Magic still lost, they lost on the same problems as the Heat, although they were much higher than the Knicks in shooting percentage and rebounding throughout the game, but they failed to control the turnovers like the Heat, and most importantly, they took 18 fewer shots than the Knicks.
After the Knicks finished the All-Star weekend, they seemed to have found another way to win - that is, to shoot desperately, whether it is reasonable or not, in short, let's shoot the basketball in our hands first.
D'Antoni may have woken up to something, their 8-second offensive style of play is to pursue the number of shots, so they don't need to pursue the rationality of the offense at all, let alone pay attention to the efficiency of bullshit, but should increase the number of shots crazily...... Even if this kind of offense is not efficient, but I shoot more than a dozen balls in a game than you, and no matter how inefficient I am, I can score more than seven or eight more points than you, right? Maybe I'll win by seven or eight points in the end.
While this is a demanding rebounding requirement and will give opponents more opportunities to quickly counter-attack, D'Antoni believes in his team's speed of defense, and they don't defend well in positional battles, but their one-on-one defense ability is among the best. If the opponent wants to defeat the Knicks with a lot of frontcourt 2v2 or 3v3, they will definitely not be more efficient than the Knicks in the end, which is why the Magic team has taken so many fewer shots in this game, except for Howard's excessive free throws, their inefficient and fast offense has made the Knicks a complete team.
The Knicks' crazy virtual area play is very restrained by those teams who always want to drag them into positional battles, the Heat and Magic played very calmly in these two games, pursuing rationality and efficiency as much as possible, so that they are destined not to shoot as crazy as the Knicks, and the Knicks are likely to end up with 10+ more shots than their opponents, or even 20+ shots, which will become a very fatal link.
Howard didn't mention revenge after the game, Wu Huang didn't bother to make up for it, his words before the game were not nonsense, the Magic was really sad to pass the first round this year, whether it was against the Heat or the Celtics, the Magic's lineup was not anyone's opponent, unless Howard played super God on the field and had a free throw shooting rate like today, otherwise this Magic team is destined to have little hope.
The Knicks rushed to New Orleans after the victory over the Magic, the two games were very short, and the time was a bit rushed for the Knicks, and when they arrived on the road, they didn't even have time to rest, and after a good night's sleep, they had to hurry up and prepare for the game, and many players' minds were still stuck in the last game.
This kind of game is extremely bad for the Knicks, with the strength of the Hornets has a good chance to win, but the premise is that Chris Paul must play well, but it is Paul who is the Hornets in this game.
Recently, there have been a lot of conflicts between Paul and his own team, and rumors are flying all over the sky, one will say that Paul is going to the Lakers to join forces with Kobe, one will say that Paul is going to Orlando to partner with Warcraft, and some people say that he will go to the Clippers......
In this case, I don't know if it was affected by rumors, or deliberately did not work hard to blackmail the team into trading, Paul played 36 minutes in this game, but only got 4 points and 10 assists, and only made 7 shots, and the desire to attack was very low.
Wu Huang got the most real feeling about Paul, today Paul really didn't show the strength to compete with him, and even the small actions that Wu Huang hated rarely appeared on him today, which was a bit like Kidd instead of Paul.
Everyone knows that the Hornets must rely on Paul to win, but how can the Hornets win the game with such a core team that doesn't work hard?
Wu Huang has a hunch that even if Paul will not be traded this season, he will definitely not see this guy in New Orleans next season, as long as Paul continues to play like this for a few games, the team can only choose to trade him next season, and the twisted melon is not only not sweet, but also poisonous!
The Knicks won the game in a mess, and after returning to the home court, Wu Huang scored 44 points to send the Cavaliers to four kills this season, and the poor Cleveland people have only won nine games so far, and many people are waiting to see them break the joke of the team's worst record, and the current Cavaliers still have a chance to become the second team in history to win by less than double digits.
After the victory over the Cavaliers, Wu Huang finally received the news that he was named Player of the Month for February, which is also his third honor this season.
Wu Huang's fans are excited at the moment, and if he also wins the following honors for March and April, he will become the only person in NBA history to win Player of the Month five times in a single season. Previously, LeBron James and Kevin Garnett were the only people to win Player of the Month four times in a single season, and Wu Huang now has a chance to surpass these two predecessors and set a new record again.
However, this task seems to be a bit difficult, and this month James's side suddenly broke out, when Wu Huang defeated the Hawks on the road, James also cut 42 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists at home, defeated the Chicago Bulls, who were second in the East, through double overtime, and got the fourth triple-double of the season.
In fact, not only this game, James entered March with full firepower, not only the number of shots increased, but the Heat team also intended to fulfill him, and even Wu Huang felt that the league was also interested in helping James, because the gorilla's average free throws per game were also soaring. Take this game against the Bulls as an example, James scored 19 of his 42 points at the free-throw line, and he stood on the free-throw line 28 times tonight, which is an unusual number of free throws.
Wu Huang lives by himself, he feels that the league definitely doesn't want him, a yellow-skinned guy, to break the record, so it is very likely to hack his best of the month in March, but he is worried that he will not be able to convince the public, so he pushed James out of the boat, as long as the average data of the two of them this month is about the same, the league certainly has a reason to give James the item.
If so, the Heat will be the most beneficial, and their record is likely to rise sharply because of this, and with everyone's poor schedule this month, the Heat may buck the trend and surpass the Bulls to move up to second place in the East.
On March 7, the Knicks were in trouble in Salt Lake City, where they were stubbornly sniped after back-to-backs, and even without the team's core Deron Williams, the court would still be difficult to conquer, not to mention the fatigue of the entire Knicks team, where they finally overturned.
Wu's three-pointer helped the team keep the suspense until overtime, but in the end, they couldn't get out of the game, and Wu Huang lost to Salt Lake City with a triple-double of 24 points, 10 rebounds and 13 assists, and suffered his first defeat in March with the team. (To be continued.) )
