The Bobcats' last three opponents are the Nets, Raptors, and Thunder. They won the game without a hitch and finished the regular season with a terrifying 76-6 record. Improved the Bulls' record of 72 wins by four games.

Hayes barely shot in the last few games, swiped 44 assists, and finally ensured 10 assists to complete the feat of averaging a triple-double per game in the regular season, becoming the second player to average a triple-double per game in the season after Robertson. For that reason, some experts say Hayes qualifies for the Hall of Fame now, and that a triple-double is much more difficult in today's league than it was in Robertson's era.

After the game, some people said that Hayes was shameless in swiping data, but in fact, this kind of thing is also very normal, and Hayes is just a small thing.

In 1997, David Robinson scored 71 points in the final game in order to compete with O'Neal for the scoring title, which was a very shameless process, and the Spurs gave him every shot.

Chamberlain's 100 points were basically the same as Robinson's, and the opponent had no intention of fighting in that game.

Hayes just gave up shooting, passed to teammates when he had the chance, and saw himself as a point guard, which was much better than the two above.

With regular season stats that rival basketball legends and record-breaking league-best records. Hayes has actually confirmed that he will win the regular season MVP, but according to the schedule, it will not be announced until after the first round of the playoffs.

The Bobcats face a problem, with all 15 players on the team currently healthy, but only 13 players allowed in the playoffs, meaning there are two who don't have a chance to make the playoffs.

The Lakers' interior is particularly strong, and the Bobcats must ensure their interior strength in the playoffs, so the position of Marc Gasol has been determined. The remaining fringe guys are Anthony Morrow, George Hill, and Van Weaver.

In the end, the club chose Weaver. Because Weaver has won a championship and has enough playoff experience that Hill and Morrow can't compare. Morrow's three-point accuracy is the best, but it is unknown how many percent he will play in the playoffs. Hill's playmaking ability is poor, the Bobcats have two point guards that are good enough, and the main person responsible for organizing the offense is Hayes.

Moreau and Hill were originally the most marginal players of the Bobcats and could only accept this result.

The NBA's regular season season ends at a certain time every year, and that is April 18. Teams can all get a three-day vacation and then start the exciting playoffs.

The East is heavily divided and there are no surprises in the final regular season standings.

In second place is the Atlanta Hawks (60-22). The Eagles' solid record is not much different from last season, and the addition of Crawford has strengthened the team's outside line. However, the youngster Rodney Starkey played mediocre and did not improve significantly compared to last season, and Yao Ming's statistics also declined.

Third place is the Cleveland Cavaliers (58-24). Mo Williams had 17.8 points, 3.4 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal, and the Cavaliers also broke through this season with this strong reinforcement and finished third in the East.

In fourth place is the Orlando Magic (50-32), Howard's stats this season are still eye-catching, but experts can also find a lot of his shortcomings, such as playing star stats against weak teams, and when facing opponents of the same level such as Yao Ming, Duncan, and Gasol, the stats have dropped significantly. He still lacks O'Neal's dominance under the basket.

fifth-place Boston Celtics (42-42); Pierce is still the Celtics' number one star, and Ray Allen is also averaging 19.2 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game. The Celtics are beginning to consider trading Antoine Jamison in the summer, and the offensive power forward, who is averaging 18 points per game but has made frequent mistakes on the defensive end. If it weren't for the unsung hero Perkins on the inside, the Celtics might not have finished fifth.

Sixth, the Milwaukee Bucks (41-43), who are back in the playoffs; The winning rate is less than 50%, but it can enter the playoffs, and the strength of the East is so poor. With the removal of Williams this season, the Bucks added Bogut's low-post singles on the inside, a tactic that paid off, and Richard Jefferson, who was traded from the Nets, also strengthened the Bucks' forward line. There's also Mike Reed on the outside, who is at the pumper-level level. The Bucks are the biggest dark horse team in the East.

Seventh is the Miami Heat (40-42), who rely on the outside to win the world.

In eighth place is the Philadelphia 76ers (39-43). Pursued by the Raptors and Pistons, the Philadelphia 76ers defeated the defending champion Timberwolves in the last game and kept the victory. With only 39 wins to make the playoffs, the 76ers set a new playoff low in the league in recent years.

The Toronto Raptors (38-44) are ninth. Sending Okafor away, the Raptors have no regrets, and it is a fool's dream to rely on Kwame Brown to get good results on the inside.

10th Detroit Pistons (35-45). The Pistons' lineup didn't look bad and had a chance to make the playoffs, but in the final moments, Prince was injured and the Pistons completely lost their defense.

11th Indiana Pacers (31-51). Troy Mofe, Mike Dunleavy and Danny Granger are all good scorers, but they are a mess together.

12 Chicago Bulls (28-54), the Bulls are playing like this because of injuries, Hinrich and Lore Deng are absent in turn, and Bengo averages 21 points per game, but he doesn't know what defense is.

13 New Jersey Nets (20-62); 14 Washington Wizards (13-69); Ironically, the Wizards are still in the bottom 2 with only 13 wins, and the Knicks are even more courageous, with the league's worst record of 11-71.

The Western Conference team has a much stronger record.

The first place is the Los Angeles Lakers, (67-15), and the Lakers intended to practice at the last moment, and the main players played shortened and lost a few games.

Second place went to the dark horse Portland Trail Blazers. (59-23). Roy and Aldridge were incisively linked, Mayo was precise on the outside and sharp on the break, Sessions was also good at point guard, and Pulzbilla and Humphries were also brave inside. No one expected the Trail Blazers to achieve such a record.

In third place is the veteran powerhouse San Antonio Spurs with 56 wins and 26 losses. Missing Bowen, Spurs and GDP combinations.

Fourth-place Timberwolves are 55-27. After the All-Star break, the Timberwolves suffered another injury plague, this time with Hamilton and Garnett taking turns to be injured, and they went 21-9 in the second half.

The fifth is the Denver Nuggets, who wanted to send Arenas away during the season, but unfortunately no one cared. had to keep the original lineup to play until the playoffs, and after the All-Star break, Arenas and Anthony grabbed the ball, and the conflict between the two intensified, affecting the team's results. In the end, they only won 54-28.

The sixth-place Houston Rockets are 54-28 and have lost just three games in total since the All-Star break. and a wave of 17 consecutive wins. They have the same record as the Nuggets, and the two teams are also tied in head-to-head records.

According to NBA regulations, at this time, it is necessary to look at the winning rate of the opponents in their respective leagues (East or West), and the higher one is ranked higher. The Rockets have won two fewer games against Western Conference teams than the Nuggets, so they are in sixth place.

The seventh-place New Orleans Hornets, the eighth-place Dallas Mavericks, and the two-ball record are also equal, both 52-30.

And the Utah Jazz, who have a 50-32 record and rank ninth, actually missed the playoffs! The Suns also finished 48-34 and finished in 10th place.

After that, the 11th Grizzlies, the 12th Clippers, and the 13th Thunder also won more than half of the percentages. Put it in the East and it will definitely make the playoffs. The fourteenth place is the Warriors, and the bottom team in the West is the Kings. Even the Kings have a 23-59 record.

After another season of severe Western strength and Eastern weakness, the NBA's top leaders are starting to consider changing the playoff rules! Make a slight or fundamental change and apply it to next season's playoffs.

However, judging by various sources in the league, the likely surname to maintain the current matchup rules is still the largest. Because this change will affect the interests of many Eastern teams. In the context of the economic crisis, how to change it must be carefully considered.

NBA commissioner David Stern reiterated that sentiment in an interview with Philadelphia reporters on the day of the regular season. "Even though I don't think anything will change, I think we're going to take a hard look at it," he said. ”

The current format is that the top eight teams from the East and West each advance to the playoffs. This format led to the Jazz being kicked out of the playoffs despite their 50-win record, and left the Lakers and Mavericks, Spurs and Hornets several super-strong teams fighting to the death in the first round.

The format now allows teams with less than 50 percent of the winning percentages -- like the 76ers -- to still make money from their fans even if they have a terrible record.

And the Jazz fans in Salt Lake City were so angry that they wanted to tear down the office building of the NBA headquarters. Except for the Bobcats and Hawks, the other teams in the East have no advantage over the Jazz. The teams that make the playoffs from 5 to 8 may even be swept out if they play seven games against the Jazz. The Jazz were sent home fishing without playing a single playoff game.

The league headquarters has put together a bunch of changes that the committee will consider when it meets in Orlando on May 27 during the annual rookie camp.

Among the hopeful suggestions is that after each round of the playoffs, the seeding order can be rearranged like other professional leagues; Or simply stuff the 16 teams with the best records into the playoffs, regardless of the divisions.

If there is consensus that changes should be made before next season, the league will have the board vote via email and have everything in place by October.

Of course, opposition to sending the 16 best teams to the playoffs must be louder. It was widely assumed that the fifteen teams in the East would unite against such a change, and they had been ridiculed enough over the years for the depth and fierce competition of the teams in the West.

As the gap in power between East and West shows no signs of abating, calls for change have risen steadily over the past few years. This season, the situation has been particularly pronounced in the West and the East, which has put a question mark over the Bobcats' league-best record, which seems to be much easier than the Bulls' 72 wins......
