In April, the Heat went 10-1 in their final 11 games and improved their overall record to a negative record.

The Heat remain the league leader, holding the top spot in the league for the second year in a row.

……

Li Lei couldn't help but recall his three-year career.

In their first season, they were team basketball.

Odom, Jones Sr., Wade, and Li Lei led the Heat to a negative record.

In the playoffs, the Heat crossed the Green Army and the Nets one after another, but lost to the season's champion Pistons in the Eastern Conference finals.

In the second season, the Heat welcomed O'Neal.

Li Lei was once thought to be a bargaining chip in trading O'Neal for the Lakers.

But in the end, Li Lei stayed and formed a LOW combination with Wade and O'Neal.

That's a real galactic battleship.

The Heat had the best NBA record in NBA history that season with 76 wins and 6 losses.

In the playoffs, the Heat swept all their opponents, played an invincible record of 16-0 and lifted the championship trophy.

Li Lei himself also won the MVP trophy of the finals.

Then there was this season, because of the frequent injuries and too many veteran players, there was instability within the team.

But the Heat still set a new record for the longest winning streak in NBA history, with 34 straight wins.

On top of that, the Heat had a negative regular season record.

On the eastern side:

1st place: Miami Heat, lost.

Second place: Detroit Pistons, loss.

Third place: New Jersey Nets, loss.

Fourth place: Cleveland Cavaliers, loss.

Fifth place: Washington Wizards, loss.

Sixth place, Indiana Pacers, lost.

Seventh place, Orlando Magic, lost.

Eighth place, Milwaukee Bucks, lost.

Starting in ninth place, they are: 76ers, Bulls, Celtics, Raptors, Hawks, Bobcats, and Knicks.

Old handsome Larry? Brown took the Knicks to the bottom of the league and ruined his reputation.

This side of the West:

1st place: San Antonio Spurs, lost.

Second place, Phoenix Suns, lost.

Third place, Denver Nuggets, loss.

Fourth place, Dallas Mavericks, lost.

Fifth place, Memphis Grizzlies, lost.

Sixth place, Los Angeles Clippers, lost.

Seventh place, Los Angeles Lakers, lost.

Eighth place, Sacramento Kings, lost.

The ninth-place starts in order: Jazz, Hornets, HyperSonics, Houston, Warriors, Timberwolves, and Trail Blazers.

……

Personal data, Li Lei 25.1 points, 7.2 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 3.3 steals and 1.3 blocks.

Compared with the previous two seasons, Li Lei is still making steady progress.

Rookie season: 15.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 2.5 steals and 2.0 blocks per game, 49.2% shooting from the field and 48.8% from three-point range

Sophomore: Averaged 20.5 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.7 assists, 2.6 steals and 1.9 blocks per game, shooting 51.8% from the field and 49.3% from three-point range.

Third year: Averaged 25.1 points, 7.2 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 3.3 steals and 1.3 blocks per game, shooting 51.1% from the field and 47.6% from three-point range.

In terms of data, Li Lei has made a lot of progress.

But the hit rate has decreased.

This is also normal, this season, Li Lei is more offensive with the ball.

And O'Neal is out a lot, and Li Lei is facing much greater defensive pressure than last season.

In terms of scoring:

Bryant averaged a terrifying 35.4 points per game, leading the league and becoming the scoring champion.

Iverson averaged 33 points per game, finishing second.

James averaged 31.4 points per game, ranking third.

"The General" Arenas averaged 29.4 points per game, ranking fourth.

Li Lei ranked tenth.

Rebounding:

Kevin? Garnett averaged 12.7 rebounds per game and was crowned the rebounding leader.

Dwight in sophomore form? Howard averaged 12.5 rebounds per game, finishing second.

Sean? Marion averaged 11.8 per game.

Root? Wallace averaged 11.3 per game.

Tim? Duncan averaged 11 per game.

Yao Ming averaged 10.2 per game.

In terms of assists:

Steve? Nash averaged 10.5 per game, leading everyone by a wide margin, ranking first and winning the assist title.

Blaven in second place? Knight averaged 8.8 per game.

Chauncey in third place? Billups averaged 8.6 per game.

……

Then, it was time for the much-anticipated regular season.

The first round of the showdown.

Westward:

Spurs vs Kings.

Mavericks vs Grizzlies.

Suns vs Lakers.

Clippers vs Nuggets.

Eastern:

Heat vs Bucks.

Nets vs Pacers.

Pistons vs Magic.

Cavaliers vs Wizards.

The Heat's opponent in the first round was the Bucks.

There's really not much to say.

What is there to say about the slaughter of large scores.

The Bucks are really lackluster.

During the regular season, the two teams played four games, with the Heat winning four.

In the first three games, O'Neal was not there, and Li Lei and Wade slaughtered the Bucks, winning every game by a big score.

In the fourth game, Li Lei led the team alone, scored 52 points, and killed the Bucks.

So such an opponent is not worth mentioning at all.

On April 20 and April 21, there were no games in the whole league.

The playoff teams start studying their opponents, and the belly teams start fishing.

The defending champion Heat is thinking about who to play in the next round.

Victor of the Wizards and Knights...... It also seems to be lackluster and not worth mentioning.

Then let's think directly about the East Showdown.

Of course, this is just a thought.

The Heat are still a down-to-earth team, and the ball has to be played one game at a time.

Even if they want to sweep the Bucks, they will have to play at least four games.

For example, the team's general manager and head coach Pat? Riley was down-to-earth, telling the players: "I think the Pistons have a better chance of making it to the Eastern Conference finals!" ”

Heat Player: "......"

Bucks: Am I really embarrassed?

Cavaliers, Wizards: We don't have face?

Pat? Riley: You really haven't.

Even if you invite the red-haired Shanks, the "Face Fruit Ability", I won't give you this face.

Me Pat? Riley said!

……

On the other side of the ocean, the CBA finals came to an end, and the Guangdong team won the championship.

Yi Jianlian and Zhu Fangyu came to the United States together.

Because of the relationship between Yao Ming and Li Lei, both of them became Bill? Duffy's players.

The first battle they came to the United States was Miami.

As for Houston, Yao Ming didn't make the playoffs, so what are you going to do?

Yao Ming also came to Miami, and he lived in Li Lei's newly bought house with Yi Jianlian and Zhu Fangyu.

They will watch Li Lei's game while preparing for the trial.

Li Lei took the time to pick up people at the airport with Wang Zhizhi, and then threw the key to Yao Ming.

I haven't seen each other for more than half a year, Yi Jianlian and Zhu Fangyu are strong again.

If there is any difference between them and history, one is that they received NBA-level training earlier, and the other is that they are more single-minded.

In history, Yi Jianlian is good at everything, but he is not good at anything.

Now, under the guidance of the professional team, Yi Jianlian has practiced medium and long range shooting, defensive footsteps, and running without the ball.

Zhu Fangyu practiced even less, that is, three points and defense, exactly the same as Li Lei back then.

With this kind of training, they may not be able to become great talents, but they are more promising to be functional role players.

……

In this way, several of the strongest players in Chinese basketball gathered in Miami.

Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Yi Jianlian, Zhu Fangyu, Li Lei.

Yao Ming asked curiously: "Stone, you guys are going to play the playoffs soon, don't you need to prepare?" Still eating with us? ”

Li Lei shook his head: "Fighting a buck is not a fight with your eyes closed." ”

Yao Ming rolled his eyes.

But thinking that he didn't make the playoffs this year, Yao Ming really couldn't be happy.

Li Lei frowned and said: "Houston has not negotiated with you about renewing the contract until now, it seems that it really intends to rebuild with Okafor as the core." That's fine, you can leave. There's really no future in that place, and you haven't played a second round in four years. ”

Yao Ming fell into deep thought.
