Jordan averaged 28.2 points per game in his rookie season, and after entering the modern basketball era, he was unique.

In Li Ao's memory, more than 20 years later, there is still no rookie who averages 25+ points per game.

Even for more than 20 years, no one has come close to Iverson's 23.5 points per game.

Iverson's average of 23.5 points per game is the second-highest score of a rookie in the modern basketball era.

Block King, he's sure.

He opened his profile and after picking up six blocks against the SuperSonics, he moved to 250 blocks in 66 games this season, averaging 3.79 per game.

Towards the end of the season, he improved his block count a lot in March, and his team defense played better, averaging 4.1 blocks per game in a single month.

But it's not just them who play better defensively, so do their opponents!

After playing in February, he averaged 24.1 points per game, and by March, he had slipped to 23.8 points per game.

It's still supported by 42 points, 34 points, 32 points, and 29 points.

He scored more than 10 points this month, the most in five games.

He has played 66 games and scored 1,571 points, an average of 23.8 points per game

If he doesn't have a game to play, he'll need to score 304 points in the next nine games to increase his scoring average to 25 points per game at the end of 75 games.

That is, he scored 33.7 points per game next.

Iverson, the scoring champion this season, averaged 31.6 points per game.

Li Ao is numb, this task, but as early as a month earlier, he has the confidence to complete it.

There is a way to choose, and it is the true character of a man.

If the mission comes early, he will inevitably become Stark House, which is a full-level skill that can be used at the first level, and it is not unacceptable to reduce the hit rate by two percentage points.

"Hatchaser Level 5:

1. When the offense and defense switch to chase the defense or make up the defense to cut into the inside to catch the ball and attack the frame, the speed is +3, and if the host tries to block, the bounce is +3, and the sense of smell of the block is increased.

2. When anti-counterattack, if the opponent's solo is fast, the host will use it as the target to chase and defend, the speed is +5, and when the target is used to try to block, the bounce will be +5, and the sense of smell of the cover will be greatly improved.

3. Every time the offensive round after chasing the block, it is easier for the host to find the shooting feeling. ”

This skill is a hard bonus!

Thinking that there was a high probability that he would not be able to get this skill, the more Li Ao thought about it, the more painful his egg became, rolling around on the bed, waving his arms and legs, and screaming.

Destroy!

…

At noon the next day, the Clippers returned to Los Angeles.

In the afternoon, Li Ao practiced turning his back to catch the ball on the basketball court in his yard.

The team's treatment is getting better and better, and on the plane back, Gentry asked him if he would train this afternoon, and the reason for this was because the training table communicated with James Worthy marked that James Worthy had something to take off today.

Li Ao responded to the afternoon training at home, and after he returned home to eat the lunch made by his mother, two trainers from the team came to his house after a while.

The task of 'genius', he is itching and crazy.

But he knows that whether or not he tries to complete the task, improving his scoring ability is crucial.

Today he practiced turning and cutting into the frame, a quick hook to catch the ball and take a quick stop after getting close.

His hook hand, after stepping + emergency stop, his feet do not need to leave the ground, the action is fast, and it is difficult to interfere with the inside line without moving in advance.

It was a way for James Worthy to build on his existing skills and help him think of an attacking style before the start of the back-to-back away and home fixtures.

It's just so hasty, I add whatever comes to my training.

But James Worthy couldn't help it, Li Ao improved too quickly, and the training plan he did lasted less than two weeks before he was forced to make changes.

No, even this cut-in emergency stop hook, after practicing for less than a week, Li Ao has already practiced the movements.

Now it is time to train at the speed of actual combat, and combine several basic skills such as turning and cutting + catching and striding + emergency stop + hook.

Thanks to the good foundation in the early days, it would take him more time to develop turnaround jumpers and step-back jumpers without foundation, but developing new technologies based on his abilities is not enough to describe his development speed.

At the end of the afternoon training, after the experience bracelet, training method and other additional training results are settled, the system prompt is coming!

"Congratulations to the host, the hook technique has been increased from 72 to 73."

"Congratulations to the host, the hook hand has basically increased from 69 to 70, which has reached a good level."

"Congratulations to the host, the basic emergency stop skill has been improved from 79 to 80, which has reached an excellent level."

"Congratulations to the host, the high back body technique has been increased from 70 to 71."

"Congratulations to the host, the basic skill of the high back body has been improved from 69 to 70, which has reached a good level."

"Congratulations to the host for increasing the overall rating to 80, and the host is already an excellent NBA star."

"Name: Li Ao, English name: Leo.

Age: 19 years old (August 1, 1981).

Height: 203 cm, Arm Span: 227 cm.

Weight: 100 kg.

Overall rating: 80.

Physical fitness: speed 92 (burst acceleration 90), strength 89 (explosive power 88), bounce 86 (speed 90), flexibility 92, physical strength 91......

Basic skills: 74 three-pointers, 88 mid-range shots, 89 layups, 70 hooks, 67 ball control, 83 passes, 89 step backs, 89 lateral moves, 89 forward rounds, 74 step-overs, 79 turns, 80 emergency stops, 68 back-backs, 62 turnovers......

Technique: 70 hook hand, 81 catch-and-turn shots, 82 stop-and-go catch-and-shoot jumpers, 73 high-post back-to-back techniques, 61 turn-over jumpers ......"

It's finally 80!

Li Ao has no idea about this matter, and the evaluation method based on physical fitness, basic skills, and technical hard power, he is still a single offensive method, which is too much of a loss.

But he doesn't think there's anything wrong with it, the performance he can play on the pitch is the last word.

If a single offense is strong enough to reach the level of Klay Thompson, he's willing to do it.

But the problem is that he doesn't have that good catch-and-shoot ability, and the team needs him to do more, so he doesn't keep rushing in the direction of catch-and-shoot play, but starts to develop his ball-handling ability.

The progress on the defensive end has slowed down for a long time, at least the three most basic basic skills on the panel have not moved for two months after 89.

He consulted with the best defensive players who were already undergoing rehabilitation + weight loss training after recovering from injury, and the other party said that the defensive foundation has reached his level, and it is normal for him to improve slowly, and it is even possible that he will not improve again.

Stadium experience, team-mates, knowledge of opponents...... These are also part of the defense.

So he didn't dwell on the changes in the panel's attributes on the defensive end.

Facts have proved that Fat Joe is right, entering the second half of the season, he and his teammates have better and better tacit understanding on the defensive end, and the opponents he has encountered have basically had experience in fighting.

This can be seen from the fact that their Clippers have only conceded 89.3 points per game in their last 13 games.

He took a closer look at his assessment report.

A year has passed, and his evaluation in all aspects has surpassed his evaluation based on the NCAA level in the same period last year!

"A year! It's not easy to get stronger. ”

In addition to the basic skills and techniques that have been practiced, some have not been deliberately practiced, and there have also been some improvements, with ball control coming to 67 and passing to 83.

Physical fitness has also improved recently, and the explosiveness has increased from 87 to 88.

I've been playing the regular season for 5 months, and the biggest improvement is my physical strength, from 89 to 91, I didn't deliberately train my physical fitness, I didn't have time, and I played an average of 37 minutes per game.

…

The last day of March passed, and on April 1, the last game month of the regular season arrived.

The league has announced the latest edition of the Monthly Awards.

Li Ao won the 5th Rookie of the Month of the Month without any suspense.

Larry Brown won Coach of the Month last month, and the 76ers played 15 games last month, averaging just 84.6 points per game.

He used his strength to prove how much he could do if he was given the right lineup.

Duncan led the team to 11-5 last month, averaging 26 points, 12.4 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.2 steals and 2.8 blocks per game while shooting 53% from the field and 51.8% from the free throw line.

At first glance, Li Ao thought that O'Neill had won the best of the month.

But he thought O'Neal hadn't made any worse free throws this year, shooting 60 percent from the field.

Then he went to search Duncan's free-throw shooting percentage, and after playing in March, it just fell below 6 percent, or 59.9 percent.

Loved.

In the evening, the Clippers host a challenge from the Cavaliers.

Li Ao put aside the task of 'genius' first, it is important to rush to the playoffs, and if he has the opportunity to score, he will definitely be able to shoot hard.

When it comes to the critical stage of the playoffs, it is currently 30-42 and has 10 games to play, and there is a certain probability of hitting the Cavaliers, who are eighth in the East.

Big Z returned from injury in mid-March, much earlier than the schedule, but he was in very good shape, playing 10 games off the bench, averaging 11.4 points, 6 rebounds and 1.9 blocks in 21 minutes per game.

In the first quarter, the Cavaliers defended the Clippers from shooting only 7 of 20, including Li Ao's 4 shooting and 3 shooting!

At 18-24, the Clippers trailed the Cavaliers by six points.

The whole team shot iron, Li Ao had a high shooting rate, and Gentry naturally arranged for Li Ao to shoot more, reducing Li Ao's running and moving consumption through tactics, strengthening the flank covering ability and defense, and creating counterattack opportunities.

Gentry was not flustered by such shooting performance and score, the tactics were not played, the chances were not created, and the defensive enthusiasm was not enough...... If he behaves badly for these reasons, he will be angry.

But tonight they played fine, they just couldn't shoot.

There are always good and bad states, and tonight happened to be the bad time, and I bumped into the Cavaliers who still have traces of the 'Iron and Blood Age'.

In the last meeting, Li Ao exploded 12 points in a single quarter in the third quarter, and the Cavaliers adjusted their defense against Li Ao in the final quarter, and the Clippers threw away the whole team in the final quarter to complete the reversal.

This time, the Cavaliers took a gamble and defended one-on-one and continued to play against other players on the Clippers.

Li Ao had many opportunities to run out in the second quarter, and his performance did not disappoint, shooting 6 of 11, including 1 of 2 three-pointers, plus 3 of 3 free throws, for 16 points in a single quarter.

But his teammates continued their poor first quarter, scoring just seven points on 2-of-10 shooting.

The Cavaliers, on the other hand, also scored 23 points in the second quarter.

At halftime, the Cavaliers still led the Clippers by six points, with a score of 47-41.

In the third quarter, after the Cavaliers played another wave of attrition, they began to strengthen their defense against Li Ao, and he was also embarrassed in this quarter, scoring 7 points on 3-of-7 shooting, and his teammates scored slightly better, but not much, the Clippers scored 17 points in a single quarter, although the Clippers also pressed the Cavaliers to 19 points, but the difference was still stretched to 8 points.

In the final quarter, the Cavaliers continued their defensive performance in the first three quarters, limiting the Clippers to just 22 points despite scoring only 19 points.

In the end, the Cavaliers defeated the Clippers 85-80!

Li Ao shot 16 of 33 tonight, including 1 of 4 three-pointers, plus 8 of 11 free throws, and scored 41 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 3 blocks.

Watching himself score two more points alone than his teammates combined...... The opportunity did come, but it wasn't the kind of opportunity he wanted......

…

The first 45 wins of his career were postponed by another one.

On the second day, Li Ao turned the depression of losing into motivation for the next game.

There were always wins and losses, 44-30, which was better than he had expected when he came back from All-Star Weekend.

He just wanted better.

He simply packed up his things, had breakfast, and came to the airport to follow the team to the north.

After a night's rest in Vancouver, head to the GM Plaza Arena to challenge the Grizzlies.

Gentry cautiously adjusted his style of play - knock on defense!

On the offensive end, let Spider-Man, who has always been in a stable state, go to the waves.

It's okay to lose to the Cavaliers, who are playing for the playoffs, but if they are upset by the Grizzlies, who are second to last in the West, it will be a big shame.

You can't go wrong with abusing food on defense.

The Clippers led the Grizzlies by 3 points 22-19 in the first quarter, 29-17 in the second quarter, extending the lead to 15 points, and 30-23 in the third quarter, extending the lead to 22 points!

In the last quarter, the opportunity that Li Ao wanted came, and he took the initiative to ask Ying to come on the court to suppress the formation to avoid being overturned.

Although Gentry felt that the Grizzlies did not have the ability to turn over by 22 points, he still agreed to Li Ao to continue playing.

He really didn't think about Li Ao wanting to score points, he thought of Li Ao's unwillingness after losing the game the night before, and their Spider-Man has always been cautious.

At the end of the section, Li Ao brushed the score...... No, it was a practice of back play while pressing the formation, and he scored 13 points and 3 assists on 5-of-9 shooting.

The two teams were tied 27-27 in the final quarter.

Li Ao watched the Grizzlies score 27 points, yes, if they only scored 4 points in the final quarter, the opponent would have turned the tables, and the pressure was right......

He made 16-of-30 shooting, including 1-of-3 three-pointers, and 8-of-10 free throws, and he played 42 minutes and finished with 41 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 3 blocks.

The rest of the team was okay and the bad feel in the last game didn't carry over.

O'Neal Jr. had 15 points and 11 boards on 6-of-9 shooting, and Big Q had 14 points, 5 boards and 2 steals

Odom recorded his seventh triple-double of the season, finishing with 14 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists in the third quarter.

The Clippers slaughtered the Grizzlies 108-86 to improve their record to 45-30, tying the highest win in franchise history!
