Chapter 761 [Invincible!] Nova! 】

Delong, Joe Johnson, Yao Ming and others returned to the locker room depressed, a result that they all had some difficulty accepting.

The home fans left the court in a frustrated manner, and some people gave applause to the Clippers players, and although the Nets lost, they all saw a wonderful, memorable game.

In the post-game news, it was widely believed that the reason for the Clippers' win was that the head coach was skilled, and the substitutions after the timeout were the key, and all three played an immediate role.

The next opponents of the Clippers are all underdogs outside the playoffs, and they easily won 15 in a row.

The team averaged 122.6 points per game, conceded only 100.1 points, and won 22.5 points per game, setting an all-time NBA record for net points.

According to the media, the Clippers are like a dream team playing other teams on the international stage.

There is also media analysis, after the end of this season, the two point guards of the Clippers will definitely break up, Paul and Curry are both free agents, and if the contract is renewed with a high salary, only one of the two can be kept, and if they both stay, it is not conducive to future development.

The outlet isn't out of the question, with the All-Star vote already underway, with Curry leading Paul and the rest of the point guards in the No. 1 spot. He averaged just 30.7 minutes per game, finishing with 23.4 points, 3.5 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 1.5 steals while shooting 48.7 percent from the field, 44.3 percent from three-point range and 90 percent from the free throw line.

Of all point guards, Curry has the highest scoring efficiency, averaging 8.1 three-point attempts per game and hitting 3.6 three-pointers, the league's best. He was voted Western Conference Player of the Month.

In Yang Rui's previous life, Curry was seriously injured in the 2011-12 season, which later affected his performance to a certain extent. Curry, who has not been seriously injured, rose earlier than in his previous life.

Paul's efficiency is just as impressive, averaging 16.6 points, 3.6 rebounds, 10 assists and 1.8 steals in 31.5 minutes per game, while shooting 46.2% from the field, 37.1% from three-point range and 88.5% from the free throw line.

If Curry ends up being an All-Star starter, it's clearly not appropriate to be the sixth man with the Clippers all the time. Previously, only two players off the bench became All-Star starters, Dan Marley and Kobe Bryant.

Clippers management smelled something unusual, and coming off the bench to the star starter meant that the player was in the league's sights and would be highly praised. The only team with two star point guards is the Clippers, and presumably the league wants them to separate as well.

The Bucks lay down their guns, and management looked at Monta Ellis more and more unpleasantly and was ready to trade him. The original intention of the Bucks to trade Curry was that Ellis didn't like Curry, and the two were not suitable partners. As a result, they sent away the All-Star starters, leaving a tumor, which is so depressing.

In December, the Clippers quickly snapped a 20-game winning streak.

Media analysis believes that the Clippers are invincible this season because the offensive efficiency of the players is too high, not only the starters, but also the benches are efficient.

Curry, Korver, Battier, Parsons, and Farid formed a dead five small bench lineup, and it was all worthwhile to start the strong team. Can attack quickly, can fight positionally, the only weakness is that the defense of the penalty area is not good enough, and you can also use fouls to make up for it, if the opponent is not good at low-post offense or free throws, he will definitely lose very ugly.

The Clippers' outside defense is super strong, and if you want to beat the Clippers, you have to do it inside, and at present, the NBA's low-post offensive tactics have been marginalized, and there are few stars who can dominate the interior.

The Clippers' starters have Chandler in the restricted area, and it is difficult to score in the low post, and the defensive end has to face the impact of the trident of Paul, Griffin, and Gay.

All teams began to study Yang Rui's "magic ball theory", the offense of contemporary basketball, "cost-effective" has become the most important measurement indicator, mathematically speaking, forty percent of three-point shooting and sixty percent of two-point shooting are equivalent, that is, the scoring efficiency of Ray Allen and O'Neal is the same, and it is much easier to cultivate or recruit a Ray Allen than to cultivate or recruit a big shark!

All teams have reduced the proportion of the interior attack, allowing the center to develop in the direction of the defensive blue-collar, and occasionally make a few shots after blocking and cutting.

The skillful use of joint defense makes the interior space further narrow, and the strong attack basket will frequently encounter the bag, even if the interior scorers like Yao Ming and Duncan are not tactically one-on-one, the offensive efficiency will plummet.

After 05 years, the hand-check was canceled, and the defensive players could no longer use their hands to put pressure on the torso of the offensive players, this rule change liberated the outside offensive players, and after the defenders were separated by cover, the speed players were difficult to stop, and the shooting players were "untouchable" when shooting, which solved the most criticized problem before the three-point shot: "The hand feels fluctuating after a strong confrontation, and the output is extremely unstable and cannot be used as the core".

On the defensive end, Yang Rui has also developed a set of methods to deal with the inside giant, O'Neal is amazing, right? I can't stand an offensive play with 7 seconds to run, and after three quarters, a heavy player like O'Neal will be tired, so it was embarrassing to play the Raptors O'Neal in the early years.

So, if the league doesn't put in place some measures to balance offense and encourage slowdown, the decline of the NBA's interior line will continue.

Funnily enough, while the media trumpeted the strength of the Clippers, the blowers in the 8 and 90s began to emerge again, and on the Internet, many pseudo-fans said that today's NBA interior strength is at least two notches lower than in the 90s.

In fact, in the 8th and 90s, except for those famous interior players, many role players could not gain a foothold in today's NBA. Throwing "Tabit" to that era, he would play well under that kind of slow-paced attack, at least no weaker than "Big Bamboo Pole" Bradley.

No matter how strong the interior line was in the 90s, wasn't it brutally ruled by a scoring guard??

In the Christmas game in December, the Clippers defeated the Knicks 122-100, opening with a 28-game winning streak.

The Clippers scored double-doubles, Parsons scored a career-high 32 points, and the Knicks were a bit miserable, with the interior core Stoudamayre averaging only 14.2 points and 5 rebounds per game this season.

The Clippers broke their opening streak and set a new record with every win since then, but the team's limelight was stolen by a beard. In a Western Conference Christmas game on the same day, the Rockets defeated the Lakers 120-107.

Harden finished with 33 points, five rebounds and seven assists on 10-of-22 shooting, 3-of-4 three-pointers and 10-of-13 free throws, while Bryant finished with 34 points, five rebounds and one assist on 14-of-24 shooting, 1-of-5 three-pointers and 5-of-7 free throws.

The two staged a battle of points, and the Rockets had the last laugh, this was a key battle, the Rockets temporarily ranked eighth in the West, and the Lakers fought every game, still ranked outside the playoffs, temporarily ranked tenth in the West.

If the Lakers want to make the playoffs, they will have to find a way to overtake the Rockets.

Since the start of the game, Harden has made amazing progress, averaging 26.1 points, 5 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.8 steals per game, shooting 44% from the field, 36.8% from three-point range, 85.1% from the free throw line, and averaging 10.1 free throws per game.

Harden didn't suffer a loss against Kobe, all the media began to praise him, his offensive efficiency is currently higher than that of the peak Kobe, and the Thunder management has a big head for this, and the two people they exchanged from the Rockets are obviously not on the same level as Harden, and they easily let go of a super scorer in the summer.

Kobe Bryant's scoring ability is undoubted, as long as he wants, he can blast out 40+ or even 50+ at any time, but Kobe's offensive efficiency has always been a hard flaw.

In the 2005-06 season, Bryant's true shooting percentage was 55.9%; In the 2006-07 season, he had a career-high 58 percent true shooting percentage. This season, Kobe Bryant's true shooting percentage in those two seasons can only rank 105th and 51st in the league. Harden, on the other hand, can only rank fifth in the league in points per game, but his true shooting percentage is more than 60%.

A bearded new star is rising.
