Chapter 308: The Regular Season Ends
Duke University won the 2010 NCAA championship for the fourth time in their history. Gordon Hayward's late three-pointer ignited the Blues' rebirth, and the young college students wept with joy as they felt the beauty of the victory as streamers flew through the sky.
The youthful teenagers have received the attention of NBA scouts, but even this year's MOP Kyle Singler is just an unknown player, and people always think of Duke's glory and mention the excellent coaching ability of Coach K.
This is a very strange phenomenon, obviously the NCAA champion, but in the eyes of NBA scouts who pay attention to talent, age, body and other aspects, Duke University can have a person enter the lottery area is already burning incense. However, Butler University, as a dark horse, even if Hayward misses that shot, he still has considerable potential to be favored by NBA scouts, and it is not incomprehensible for the lottery to enter the NBA.
And when people retracted their attention and paid attention to the NBA, they suddenly found that the NBA regular season of the 09-10 season had entered the final stage.
Two weeks later, with the Suns' 100-86 victory over the Jazz, all the NBA regular season games were completely over, and the records of each team, the playoff matchup table, and the statistics of every player in the regular season were all fixed in that instant.
The Cavaliers in the East have a 59-23 record, which ranks first in the East and first in the league. After that came the magic. The Hawks, the Celtics' four powerhouses. The Heat, Bucks, Bobcats, and Bulls are the last four teams in the quarterfinals, and the ninth-place Raptors are a pity. It's just one win away from the Bulls.
The Lakers in the West have a 58-24 record, ranking first in the West. The Timberwolves are a close second, with a 57-25 record and second in the West. After that, there are six teams: Suns, Mavericks, Trail Blazers, Rockets, Spurs and Thunder. It's a pity that the Nuggets and Jazz still failed to burst out of the top 8 in the West at the last moment, which made Anthony and Delon, the core of the two teams, extremely dissatisfied, and Anthony's desire to leave the Nuggets became even stronger.
How strong are teams in the West? The bottom three teams in this year's quarterfinals. The Rockets, Spurs and Thunder all have a 50-32 record and a whopping 61 percent win percentage in the East. This record can be ranked fourth. And most of these achievements are bloody roads fought in the land of tigers and wolves in the west, and the gold content is obviously higher than that of the weak east.
The rebirth of the Timberwolves and the Rockets is a huge reason for this situation, and of course, the pattern of being strong in the West and weak in the East has existed for more than a decade.
In addition to the records of the various teams. The personal data is also finalized.
Zheng played in 82 games in the regular season. He averaged 32.9 points, 8.5 rebounds, 8.1 assists, 2.6 steals and 1.4 blocks in 39.4 minutes per game. Zheng Ke has scored a total of 2,698 points this season, ranking first in the league, and his personal career total has also broken the 5,000 mark this season, although he is not the youngest Mr. 5,000 points in history, but if he maintains this scoring efficiency next season, sooner or later he will become the youngest Mr. 6,000 points or 7,000 points or something like that.
This is the first time Zheng Ke has won the scoring title in his career, and his name is Maddy, James. Kobe Bryant, Iverson and these great scorers are put together. This is an important milestone in his professional resume.
And Jordan said in an interview some time ago: "The scoring frenzy led by Zheng Ke, Durant and others is extremely rare in the NBA in recent years. Both youngsters are under the age of 22 this year, but both are already top scorers, and their future is immeasurable. ”
Durant, who ranks second on the regular season scoring charts, has played in 82 games and scored 30.5 points, and if it weren't for Zheng's strong rise, this season's scoring title would have belonged to him. In third place on the scoring list is James, who averages 29.7 points per game, shooting 50.3 percent, in addition to averaging 7.7 rebounds and 8.7 assists per game, and is also on par with Zheng Ke on the player efficiency list, Zheng Ke 31.3, James 31.2.
This is an era of the rise of the two heroes, and even if there are many superstars who are not inferior to the two of them, but if you only look at the efficiency value, the two who represent the all-round players far outperform the others.
In the 09-10 season, the first place on the rebounding list is still Dwight Howard, who averages 13.2 rebounds per game. But in the top 10 after that, new faces from many years ago appeared. For example, Lefou, who averaged 12.4 rebounds per game second only to Howard, as well as David Lee, who averaged 11.7 rebounds per game, and Joakim Noah, who averaged 11.0 per game, these young interior players began to make their mark in the league with double-double rebounding data.
On the assist list, the 36-year-old Nash is old and strong, winning the glory of the assist king with 11.0 assists. This was followed by Chris Paul, who averaged 10.7 per game, and Deron Williams, who averaged 10.5 per game. The two point guards, also from the '05 draft, have gradually become the strongest point guards in the league in the Mesozoic, but unfortunately, this year's two superstars have not been able to make the playoffs due to injuries or due to form. Rondo and Kidd followed, and most surprisingly, in the 6th and 7th spots in the assist list are two small forwards - James who averages 8.7 assists per game and Zheng Ke who averages 8.1 assists per game, both of whom put the non-CNC defender to shame.
The block king was taken away by Howard, who averaged 2.8 games per game, and the steal king was rightfully taken by Zheng Ke.
These regular-season past stats are counted as part of a professional player's career, while playoff stats are calculated separately by the league.
Zheng Ke's milestones have been accomplished quite a bit, with 5000+ points, 1000+ rebounds and 1000+ assists. He's just getting started in his career, but he's accomplished heights that many NBA players can't reach in a lifetime.
The system gave Zheng Ke a generous reward.
"Winning the scoring crown will get 5000GS points and a pair of sneakers."
"Pick up the steal crown and get 3000 GS points, and the wheel rewards you once."
"Break through 30 or more player efficiency in a single season, earn 5000 GS points, and add a summer training camp"
In the one-handed system, Zheng Ke's stats are at their peak, and the rewards given at the end of the season are now becoming more and more difficult to achieve significant results. But no matter how small the mosquito is, it still has meat, and after Zheng Ke collected these GS points, he improved his ability to reach more than 90.
His overall offensive rating has reached a height of 98, his defensive rating is 95, his rebounding rating is 80, and his overall overall rating has broken through to 97. In the systematic evaluation, Zheng Ke is already a Hall of Fame-level player, and he can be ranked as a powerful figure even in the long river of history
As the regular season ended, the league began to broadcast a playoff promo. The regular season ended on April 14, and the first round of games will start on the evening of April 17. Time is tight and the task is heavy, and the league and various playoff teams rushed to produce promotional videos overnight to promote the upcoming playoffs.
Timberwolves fans have a lot of confidence in the Timberwolves, after all, the Timberwolves were the defending champions last season and are strong. This season's record is also ranked in the top three in the league, and even if the opponent is the Spurs, Timberwolves fans don't feel anything special.
"Spurs? They're not good anymore, they're old, they're injured, they're not physical, but we're the team with the most counter-attacking points in the league! ”
"Duncan can't do it, he's only averaging 17.9 points per game this season. I think we can easily do the Spurs, um 4 to 1, no, 4 to 0. ”
"If it's the Thunder, it's a bit of a problem, after all, Durant is the second star in the scoring list, but against the Spurs, I think we should be able to win. Our players are more dynamic than well, and they don't have players who can guard Zheng Ke, what, Jefferson, who is that? ”
There is widespread optimism in Minnesota, including experts on the Internet, who are also bullish on the Spurs. Even if the Timberwolves lack a big player like Love, they still think that the Timberwolves will win, after all, the Timberwolves have a lot of momentum this season, and the record is really dazzling.
But Zheng doesn't think so, no matter how hard the Spurs struggle in the regular season, as long as they have Popovich on their team and Duncan on their team, they are still the championship team.
However, Zheng Ke couldn't increase the popularity of others and destroy his prestige. When faced with the interview, he could only say that he couldn't take it lightly and so on, and it was impossible to directly say that the Spurs were tricky or something. He can only talk about these words in the past few days of training camps with the young players who have been caught up in the sugar-coated shells of the media.
Unfortunately, the effect is minimal (to be continued......
