The 2014 All-Star Game left a lasting impression on New Orleans fans.

This game broke a number of records at halftime, and Li Ze's final 30-point triple-double was another record.

In the history of the All-Star Game, the most recent triple-double was also created by Li Ze.

In 2012, at the All-Star Game in Orlando, Li Ze scored 41 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists and was successfully elected as the MVP of the All-Star Game that year.

After Michael Jordan's triple-double in the 1997 All-Star Game, only Li Ze achieved this feat, and in 2014, Li Ze added a new record to his career.

Li Zeyi accidentally brushed a triple-double, Durant and Griffin were depressed to death, and the two patronized to see each other's scores.

If the normal selection process is followed, the player with the highest score on the winning side will receive this award, and as a result, the two lost to a triple-double this year.

It's hard to prevent it!

"Treat! A must-have! I've scored so many goals! Kayce, you guy must comfort my wounded heart tonight! ”

Griffin held Li Ze's trophy and returned to the locker room to yell continuously, and the depressed Durant also coaxed:

"I want the prettiest chick in a Los Angeles nightclub! Oh, God! You guy got three more doubles! ”

The bearded golfer's eyes were green with envy, and Lefu on the side shouted loudly:

"The last rebound was given to Kayce, and this trophy is half mine!"

Griffin shoved the trophy to Durant, and then immediately stepped forward to hug Lefou:

"It turned out to be a good thing you did! You've got to have a treat, too! ”

Li Ze saw that Lefu carried the pot for him, and immediately laughed and yelled:

"Back in Los Angeles, I'll pay for it!"

“.”

There was a mess here at the Western All-Stars, and everyone was in a good mood except for Howard, who kept pulling a face.

And the Eastern All-Star team, Kyrie Irving is a little disappointed, 14 of 17, including 3 of 6 three-pointers, 31 points, 5 rebounds, 14 assists and 4 turnovers, as long as he can win, the All-Star MVP must be his.

LeBron James saw Irving, who was in a bad mood, and immediately sent comfort:

"Kyrie, you're still young, you'll continue to be selected for the All-Star Game in the future, and if you want to win awards, you still have a lot of opportunities."

"All you need to do is lead the team to win and in the end you'll win all the accolades, come on! Bro！ ”

Owen didn't expect James to take the initiative to comfort him, and a strange emotion welled up in his heart.

He didn't like the chosen one, the Cavaliers are full of records, and fans in Cleveland always compare him to James.

Due to the team's performance and hip pulling, Owen was naturally criticized by the local media, so when he heard James's encouragement, he just responded with a smile:

"Thanks! Bro！ ”

Compared to James, Irving feels that he and Durant are more compatible, and the two have exchanged phone numbers and followed each other on Twitter by the way.

I quietly compared it in my heart, and then Owen silently complained:

"It's still the champion who is better! Kayce and Durant are technically better! ”

That night, Li Ze's 30+ triple-doubles swiped the screen again, and Amerika's media reporters reported wildly, and the NBA league also took the opportunity to release a poster of Li Ze holding the trophy high on INS:

"The only one in history! Witness greatness again! (Crown.jpg)"

At this year's All-Star Game, the Heat's Big Three completely became supporting roles, and LeBron James also looked unusually low-key after the game.

11-of-22, 22 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists, James played a decent All-Star Game, Wade scored 10 points, Bosh scored 5 points, and the two of them played only 10 minutes.

The NBA league seems to have entered the era of Li Ze, and the Big Three of the Heat are completely outdated.

Fans are focused on the All-Star Stars, and managers of teams across the league are trying to strengthen their teams.

In early February, the Cavaliers appointed David Griffin as general manager, albeit temporarily, but it seemed to signal a big move for the Cavaliers this offseason.

After the All-Star break, on Feb. 20, the Pacers traded Danny Granger and a 2015 second-round pick to the 76ers in exchange for Lavoy Allen and Evan Turner.

Compared with the small actions of other teams, the Pacers ruthlessly cleaned up Granger, which made many fans stupid.

An accidental injury not only loses the position of the boss, but may also say goodbye to the NBA league completely, which is the cruel competitive sport

After the All-Star break, teams began working for a playoff spot.

Time flies, and the Clippers continue to lead the West even if they occasionally roll over.

On March 31, the Clippers' last game of the month, everyone flew to Minnesota to challenge the Timberwolves away.

With 60 wins and 14 losses, the Clippers have already locked up a playoff spot, but for the Timberwolves, the team's record is not up and down, and if they win all the next few games, they may be able to struggle.

However, in the night's game, the Clippers won the game easily, despite the fact that coach De Nagro took a rotation off Griffin.

Li Ze played 31 minutes and scored 28 points with ease on 10-of-17 shooting, including 4-of-8 three-pointers and 4-of-4 free throws.

At this time, there were 3 minutes and 06 seconds left in the game, Kevin Love sat on the bench depressedly, the West is too rolled, if it is changed to the Eastern Conference, maybe the Timberwolves will make the playoffs

Thinking that the Hawks, who are currently ranked eighth in the East, have only 34 wins, Lefou's heart is not good, and he is the only one of UCLA's teammates who is still a rookie in the playoffs

Despite signing a big contract, he does want to make a move this offseason, ideally to fly to Los Angeles and play brother basketball, but alas, the Timberwolves are not destined to let him go for nothing.

Head coach De Nagro sat on the bench and was a little worried, although he ranked first in the West and led the league, he was a little bottomless when he thought that the 8th place was the Grizzlies.

The eighth place in the West has been swept up in the sky, and the Warriors, Grizzlies, Mavericks, and Suns all have a chance to get the eighth spot, and with about eight games left in the regular season, these teams are all aiming for a full victory.

The game ended quickly, and at 116-102, the Clippers easily defeated the Timberwolves.

The record also came to 61-14, opening up the second-place Spurs with four wins.

After the game, Lefu and Li Ze, who were depressed and clocked in for three quarters, hugged and greeted:

"I envy you, Kayce! I made the playoffs every year and won three championships, but I'm still a playoff rookie by comparison! ”

"It would have been nice if he had been drafted by a team in the East, and 30+ wins would have locked up a playoff spot, Shet! It's not fair! ”

Li Ze saw Lefu turned into lemon essence, so he could only smile and comfort his good brother:

"Don't think about it so much, your stats are good this season, and there will definitely be more options in the offseason!"

On April 1, the NBA league announced the Player of the Month for March:

In the Eastern Conference, the Bobcats had a 9-7 record in March, with Al Jefferson averaging 24.7 points, 10.6 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.0 steals, 0.9 blocks and 1.9 turnovers in 37.2 minutes per game.

He shot 55.5 percent from the field and 70.4 percent from the free-throw line.

In the Western Conference, the Thunder went 10-4 in March, and Durant averaged 34.5 points, 6.7 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 0.7 steals, 0.7 blocks and 3.1 turnovers in 38.1 minutes per game.

He shot 51.7 percent from the field, 43.8 percent from three-point range and 84.5 percent from the free throw line.

After winning this Month award, Durant has won three Month awards this season, which is currently the most awarded player in the league.

There is basically not much suspense left for the MVP, and after the new president takes office, the star-making movement is back on sail!

On April 1, Li Ze had just returned to Los Angeles, and the team had planned to give the players a half-day holiday in the morning, but in the end, everyone was called to the training hall by a phone call.

Tyronn Lue greeted everyone on the Clippers cordially, and Chris Paul was going to stay at home with the baby, but when he came to the training gym, he asked with some curiosity:

"Lue, what's wrong with the team?"

"No, it's this morning that the NBA sent a new rule to team owners, general managers, coaches and referees, which may affect the playoffs, so we're going to let you know as soon as possible."

When Li Ze heard Tyronn Lue's answer, a memory suddenly appeared in his mind, and then he suddenly looked strange, he still came!

When everyone arrived, the assistant coach sent each player a memo from the league:

"Under the league's new rules, when a big man jumps vertically inside in the future, the defender will no longer be allowed to turn to the sides to block the offensive player while in the air."

"We've recently noticed defenders turning to both sides when defending attacking players in the air, which is illegal defending."

"The referee needs to be mindful and blow for a blocking foul, and this rule will apply to a defender who jumps, regardless of whether he is in a reasonable collision zone or not."

Li Ze touched his chin and complained a little powerlessly about Yuexin's vertical jumping rules.

The previous cylinder defense rules were just requirements, and players kept jumping inside their cylinders to defend and could turn in the air without too many restrictions.

This rule change is more conducive to the outside players touching porcelain, and for the interior defenders, it is definitely an epic version of the weakening

"Miami's complaint was successful? Isn't this really an April Fool's joke? ”

Chris Paul looked at the new rule and looked a little uneasy, although Joe Jr.'s free throws were pulled and he often spit cakes, but on the defensive end, he was definitely the Clippers' interior defensive gate.

In this memo, there is even a link to a video, and several examples of the NBA league cite are the video of LeBron James breaking through to the interior in last season's Finals and being distracted by Jordan Jr.

Of course, as an NBA insider, everyone knows that the Heat have complained to the league in February, believing that the big men in the league are defending illegally.

However, for such complaints, everyone just laughed it off, if the big man is not allowed to turn in the air and complete the block to the sides, then the ability of the inside line to protect the basket will be greatly reduced.

If such a rule is really implemented, it may be the last straw that crushes the traditional center, so the players don't care at all, just treat this news as daily gossip, and ridicule the Heat as if they want to weaken the Pacers' Hibbert

"The implementation of any rule is inseparable from the support of the referee, so if the new rules want to take effect, it may take a while, Andrew, just defend normally, just a few games left, we can test the referee's blowing scale."

As an outside player, Li Ze doesn't care about this rule, and perhaps this is also an epic reinforcement for him, as long as the new rules are implemented, the number of free throws will definitely increase.

When Griffin heard Li Ze's words, he was still a little difficult to accept, and couldn't help but complain again:

"It's so unfair to the big guys, in the future, the defense can only raise his hands after jumping, and going beyond the cylinder is blocking the foul, the league is really crazy, what is the new president thinking? Such a rule would have been adopted. ”

Coach De Nagro was happy at this time, if the new rules go into effect, maybe facing the Grizzlies again, the Clippers can be more relaxed, and when the players finished talking, they immediately clapped their hands and concluded:

"I hope this rule will get everyone's attention, we don't know the league's blowing scale yet, but we have to be prepared in advance."

"The Grizzlies are currently in 8th place, just one win away from the Mavericks, so we're going to be adding some video lessons in the near future and everyone needs to get ready for the playoffs!"

In April, the Clippers had a total of seven games, two of which were back-to-back.

The coaching staff has started to rotate the lineup, and for back-to-back games, it's basically abandoned.

On April 2, the Clippers defeated the Suns and returned to their home court to face the Mavericks back-to-back.

Coach Carlisle is determined to get the seventh playoff spot, he doesn't want to meet the Clippers in the first round, he can fight against the Spurs, and when he meets the Clippers' backcourt, it is basically for nothing.

However, the most interesting thing about this game was that Monta Ellis's continuous breakthroughs eventually caused Jordan Jr.'s 6 fouls to leave the game.

Li Ze, who was sitting on the bench, smiled and comforted the depressed little Jordan:

"Andrew, you have to be smarter, if the referee blows more strictly, he will rein in some movements, obviously, the current rules of the referee are also in the experimental stage."

Jordan Jr. nodded sullenly, in this year's playoffs, he must control the number of fouls, once six fouls leave the court, then the Clippers can only play a small lineup.

In the Staples Arena, the Clippers fans booed dissatisfied, and at their home court, the main center was sent off, and the referee was going to God!

“Referee sucks！ Referee sucks！ Referee sucks！ ”

Emotional fans began to scold the referee, but Li Ze was very satisfied with the current home atmosphere, and the fans already had a sense of belonging.

This is also thanks to the Lakers who have pulled their hips, all relying on the foil of the same city!

The subsequent schedules are all fishing teams, and the games are not intensive, and the Clippers have entered the playoff preparation stage ahead of schedule.

After the home win over the Nuggets on April 15, and the No. 16 back-to-back games against the Trail Blazers, Li Ze only played 28 minutes and did not appear after three quarters.

After winning this game, the Trail Blazers' record came to 54-28, tying the record of the Rockets in fourth place.

On the last day of the game, most of the teams that did not have the pressure of ranking were rested in the main lineup.

The Spurs lost to the Lakers with 59 wins, and the Thunder also rested their main team, and finally won a hard-fought win over the Pistons to 61 wins.

The Heat, who are second in the East, also rested their main team, losing to the 76ers in their last game and finishing with only 54 wins.

At this point, in the 2013~2014 season, the NBA regular season has ended, and the Eastern and Western record rankings have been officially released.

The Eastern Conference standings are:

The Pacers with 56 wins are in first place, the Heat with 54 wins are in second, the Raptors with 48 wins are in third, and the Bulls with 48 wins are in fourth;

The Wizards with 44 wins are fifth, the Nets with 44 wins are sixth, the Bobcats with 43 wins are seventh, and the Hawks with 38 wins are eighth.

The Western Conference standings are:

The Clippers lead the league with 65 wins, the Thunder with 61 wins are second, the Spurs with 59 wins are third, and the Rockets with 54 wins are fourth;

The 54-win Trail Blazers are fifth, the 51-win Mavericks are sixth, the 50-win Warriors are seventh, and the 50-win Grizzlies are eighth.

After the record rankings were officially released, fans of some Western teams broke their defenses a little.

The Suns have a 48-win record, the Timberwolves also have 40 wins, and if you go by the Eastern Conference standings, the Suns can be in third place, and the Timberwolves can also make the playoffs.

On Reddit, Ameika's fans are complaining wildly:

"God! The league should manage this phenomenon, it's so unfair to the Suns, we could have made the playoffs! ”

"It's unbelievable that 9th in the West has the same record as 3rd in the East, it's crazy!"

"Kevin Love must have been very upset when we managed to run a 40-win streak and miss out on the playoffs again."

"I swear the Heat will make it to the Eastern Conference Finals in the end, and no one will be their opponent."

"Seriously, I've seen enough of the Big Three script, but the East is really too weak, and there is hardly any suspense in the first round."

"Why are we running into the Clippers again, I don't want to see the team play against Kayce, we just want to make it to the Western Conference Finals"

“.”

Coach De Nagro was a little speechless when he saw the Grizzlies finally fall to No. 8 place.

On April 20th, the Clippers' G1 game will officially begin, so the team only has three days to rest

Fortunately, the coaching staff has long been ready for the playoffs, and the video lesson has been going on for more than half a month.

Tyronn Lue was a little curious if Coach De Nagro would make targeted adjustments, and while he was sorting out the tactical board, he couldn't help but ask the assistant coach next to him:

"In the past half month, we have been studying the Grizzlies' style of play, but we have not practiced new tactics, is it too late now?"

Several assistant coaches next to him, all of whom had experienced last year's playoffs, immediately laughed and replied when they heard the inquiry:

"Targeted tactics? Haven't we been rehearsing all the time? Just give the ball to Kayce, the playoffs are a stage for superstars, shorten the rotation, do a good defense, that's how we win! ”

“？？？”

Tyronn Lue has a question mark on his face, good guy, it turns out that a bunch of catch-and-shoot tactics designed for Li Ze in the late stage are just to prepare for the playoffs. The champion coach is really extraordinary!

At home in Los Angeles, Li Ze is also communicating with his training team about the new rules, and the whistle is not stable at present, but it can be expected that next season, some magic ball playing styles can already be used.

After the end of the regular season, Li Ze also had a lot of gains, and once again won three purple badges:

Achievement Badge [Bullet Passer] :(Mergetable)

Improve a player's ability to pass the ball quickly, improve the accuracy of passing, and improve the player's sense of space.

Achievement Badge [See Seams] :(can be fused)

Increases the likelihood of penetrating the defence with difficult passes, improving the accuracy of the pass and improving the player's sense of space.

Achievement Badge [Master of Transformation] :(can be merged)

Increased overall speed of holding the ball when switching from defense to offense, increased the shooting rate of finishing under the basket when switching from defense to offense, and increased the shooting percentage of outside shots when switching from defense to offense.

The purple [Transformation Master] bonus effect is huge, and it is very unscientific, which makes Li Ze hesitate all the time, for fear that if one fusion, the attribute will be gone, and after thinking about it, he finally feels that he will finish this season first.

Trainer Tony noticed that Li Ze's eyes were straight when he watched the video, and couldn't help but remind him loudly:

"Judging from the statistics, combined with the video on the spot, many referees did not implement the vertical jump rule, so in the playoffs, don't just think about breaking through to the inside line and causing the opponent's big man to foul."

"The referee probably won't blow the whistle! There is a difference between the regular season and the playoffs, but this season, it is better to focus on the middle distance, and of course, it is easy to score points by seizing the opportunity to convert. ”

Wagner, the trainer on the side, remembered Li Ze's exaggerated conversion finishing effect in the second half of the schedule, and couldn't help but secretly say that if he hit and ran, the data could still rise.

Li Ze, who came back to his senses, heard Tony's words and immediately responded seriously:

"Don't worry, I'm not in the mood to find a referee theory, there are many ways to put the ball in the basket, I'm very proficient in everything, and I definitely won't pursue too many free throws."

Trainer Meg handed the prepared drink to Li Ze, and then also sighed and said:

"This year is definitely the best chance for the Clippers, the main roster is very healthy, and the regular season is not very expensive, Kayce, seize the opportunity!"

Li Ze's memory of the Spurs sounded in his mind, and in the end he only said modestly:

"I'm definitely going to do my best, and it's definitely not going to be easy to get out of the west."

Team basketball and superstar basketball collide again and who can determine the final result that.

Thank you all for your subscription support~

The gap between the east and the west is indeed a bit big~

I was weak out of context, and I thought about it for a long time~
