Chapter 128: Making History, Horror Excel! (In August, a total of 640,000 words were updated!) )

On the 27th and 29th, as the Knicks defeated the Mavericks and Celtics respectively......

No one doubts that they will continue to lead the league with a 66-5 record and set a new NBA all-time record this season.

In the eyes of everyone, the question now is just how many wins they can beat this record.

With 11 games remaining in the regular season, some are guessing 74 wins, some are guessing 75 wins, and some more daring fans believe that the Knicks will win all of their games in the next games.

But no matter which speculation it is, it represents people's recognition of the Knicks, Wang Shuo, the "God of Coaching", and Yao Ming and Duncan.

On the 29th, after the Knicks defeated the Celtics, a number of New York media wrote: "Why do some people still think that Yao and Tim are not the all-time best in their respective positions?

Admittedly, they still lack enough champions to prove themselves.

But in that era when there were only a few teams in the NBA, those so-called legends had never played as shocking performances as Yao and Thiem!

You always say that the Chicago Bulls are the best team in NBA history, and the 72-10 record is the hardest record in the NBA to break.

But now?

Isn't the New York Knicks, who can break the Chicago Bulls record, the best team in NBA history?

And as the leaders of this team, Yao and Tim, don't they even deserve an all-time best in their respective positions? ”

The New York media got the truth.

Why is it that in the future, in many selections of the American media, Mr. Russell, who has won the most championships, has always been difficult to compare with the younger generations?

Because in the era of Russell and Chamberlain, although the NBA also had 82 games in a season, the NBA at that time did not even have 10 teams.

As for the "Heavenly Hook" Abdul-Jabbar, who should have gained a higher historical status?

Excuse me.

Due to some personal reasons in Abdul-Jabbar, he has struggled to gain the favor of mainstream public opinion after retiring.

Of course, because Danzi is a noble "cupping king" in this life, the New York media does not arrogantly believe that Yao Ming and Duncan have surpassed Jordan.

But on the premise that the Knicks are about to set a new NBA all-time best record......

In the eyes of the New York media, Yao Ming and Duncan each occupy one of their respective positions in the history of the best, which is not too much!

Anyway, if you want to be dominant, let's use the record to scare you.

If you want to compare with the championship, let's use the record to scare you.

Jordan has smashed his 11th scoring championship trophy to pieces in the past two days, because Jordan knows very well that he is likely to miss a unique opportunity that can block the way of all future generations.

Some people may say that in terms of Wang Shuo's coaching ability, since he could build the Wizards back then, and now he can build the Knicks, then he can also build a team to impact the best record in NBA history in the future.

Undoubtedly, such an idea is undoubtedly naïve and naïve.

Because even Wang Shuo, who has opened his eyes, knows very well that in the NBA, the pain point of wanting to build a super team is not how many excellent players there are in that team.

It's about ......

How can you make sure that team's dressing room doesn't blow up.

The Wizards back then, without Jordan's reputation at that time and the emotional intelligence he borrowed from God, there was no second person who could suppress the team of players with very different personalities and wanted to prove themselves after winning a championship.

And now what about this Knicks?

Where do you ask Wang Shuo to find a second pair, leaders like Yao Ming and Duncan, obedient, sensible, well-behaved, and don't cry or make trouble?

Attention, not one.

It's a pair.

This is the most terrifying part of Yao Ming and Duncan's combination.

For the vast majority of teams in the NBA, as long as your team doesn't make trouble, then no matter how bad the role players are, wouldn't it be good to trade them?

In the NBA, when does a role player deserve to fall out with the team?

And the most amazing thing is that the Hornets and Magic, the rotten brothers, also sponsored the Knicks respectively, and the two can only be perfectly compatible with Yao Ming and Duncan.

One is David West, the "Knicks Commissar" who works the court and helps educate those young players off the court to cherish the opportunity to play with Yao Ming and Duncan.

One is humble and kind, and is willing to sacrifice data to maintain the team's stability without even communicating with Wang Shuo, the "Knicks deputy political commissar" Grant Hill.

This Knicks, in terms of the luxury of the lineup alone, is even a gap with the wizards back then.

But the internal harmony of this Knicks team is likely to be the killer of Wang Shuo's coaching career!

It's a pity, it's the same as that wizard.

This Knicks also can't be reproduced.

And as the time enters the final sprint of the regular season in April......

On the Internet, more and more American fans have begun to call for Wang Shuo to become the head coach of the American men's basketball team this summer.

Not for anything else, just for the fans of the "Dream Team" to hope that Wang Shuo can save the "Dream Team".

In addition, the New York media also created momentum for Wang Shuo: "Since the 02 World Championships, American basketball has become a joke in the world basketball world!"

If the NBA wants to prove itself to be the best league on the planet, the U.S. men's basketball team must hire the best coach on the planet to guide them back to the top! ”

At the NBA headquarters, Stern now also hopes that Wang Shuo can become the coach of the U.S. men's basketball team.

There is no other reason.

Mainly because in recent years, NBA stars have not been willing to play for their country, and in Stern's view, only Wang Shuo can invite this group of superstars.

And as the New York press says.

Your U.S. men's basketball team's results are always so stretched......

No one really thinks that ordinary Americans will think that these NBA stars deserve such a high salary, right?

However, on this day, the president of the United States Basketball Association, Colangelo Sr., told Wang Shuo a good news and a bad news on the phone.

The good news is that there has been less and less opposition to hiring foreign coaches within the NBA since Larry Brown returned from leading the U.S. men's basketball team in Athens.

The bad news is that American academy coaches still want to make a last stand, and they hope that American basketball can give the apex of American academy coaches, the legendary coach of Duke University, Mike Shachzewski, a chance.

However, the two pieces of news that the old Colangelo said were good news in Wang Shuo's view.

Because Wang Shuo knows very well that even though he has brought a wave of tactical innovation to the NBA, when communicating with Du Hong, the "Duke Celebrity", Wang Shuo found ......

The academic coaches of American universities are still clinging to their traditional philosophy.

After all, in the American college basketball world, they don't have to study Wang Shuo and the team he leads all day long like these NBA teams now.

Therefore, as far as Wang Shuo's understanding of the "old K" coach is concerned, if he is the leader of the American men's basketball team in this summer's Japanese Men's Basketball World Championships, then the American men's basketball team is destined to be deflated.

In fact, even the star-studded U.S. men's basketball team in '08 almost overturned.

In the future, it was not until the 10 World Championships that the "old K" coach gradually figured out how to deal with the strong European teams.

It is true that in the 03 golden generation of this life, Wade and Anthony are stronger than the same period in history in Wang Shuo's memory.

But no one really thinks that in the 06 World Championships in Wang Shuo's memory, the U.S. men's basketball team lost in their strength, right?

And in this life, Wang Shuo didn't just bring tactical innovation to the NBA.

At present, in European basketball, there are also many top coaches copying his homework.

Therefore, in the face of this group of top European teams that are faster and more accurate, and the version on the international stage is consistent with the European League, and the tactical execution is strong, Wang Shuo even feels that the American men's basketball team led by the "old K" will lose even more.

In April of this year, Wang Shuo was ready to take that group of "rebels" to rebuild the glory of the past in the future.

Moreover, Wang Shuo believes that after this battle, his reputation in the coaching world will be close to Auerbach!

……

On April 2, the Knicks traveled to the Wachovia Center to challenge the Philadelphia 76ers.

In this game, even if you know that the Knicks are not easy to gnaw, D'Antoni must gnaw.

Because compared to the relatively calm, peaceful first half of the East......

In the bottom half of the Eastern Conference this year, the 76ers, Wizards, Pacers, Raptors, Hawks, Bulls and even the Nets, who are dragging Maddy forward with their lives, are all competing for the last four playoff tickets.

Currently, the 76ers, who are fifth in the East, are only 2.5 wins ahead of the 10th-ranked Bulls.

On the other hand, the western ......

According to experts' predictions, the West only needs 34 wins this year to get a playoff ticket.

After "moving the capital" from Cleveland to Los Angeles, James, who has led the Clippers to win 9 games, hates why the Cavaliers didn't trade him earlier!

Because the Cavaliers traded him earlier, he even had the confidence to lead this Clippers to the playoffs!

Now, in addition to the New York media, the Los Angeles media are also beginning to think that Yao Ming and Duncan are the all-time No. 1 in their respective positions.

Because in the eyes of the Los Angeles media, the Knicks' record in the East this year has long surpassed that of the Chicago Bulls that year.

In this game with the 76ers, Wang Shuo took turns to rest Yao Ming.

Then, D'Antoni was dumbfounded.

Because in Xiao Yao's absence, the Knicks' fast break is even faster than the 76ers!

Duncan plays C, West plays 4, and with Hill, Jr, and Rondo, doesn't D'Antoni like Fast and Furious?

On this night, the Knicks used their flashy fast break and Spanish blocking to tell the 76ers:

What is it called, the world's martial arts, only fast and unbreakable!

This night, in front of the TV, Yao Ming, who was given a day off by Wang Shuo to make a copy alone at home, was anxious.

Because he found ......

Without him, the Knicks' offense seems to be ...... Smoother?

Yes.

Although Yao Ming's weight has always been controlled by Grover at 134 kilograms in this life, his tonnage determines that when he is on the court, the Knicks must only choose to slow down.

"Brother...... I'm not going to be the one who drags the team back, am I? On this day, after Wang Shuo led the Knicks back from Philadelphia, Yao Ming asked nervously.

Hearing this, Wang Shuo smiled and said, "What are you anxious about? The Wizards back then, I couldn't wait to replace Michael Jordan.

But when it really hits a critical moment, don't the Wizards still have to rely on Jordan? ”

On the 4th, the Knicks returned to their home court to face the Wizards.

This time, Wang Shuo took turns to rest Duncan.

In the game, the Knicks took the initiative to slow down, just not to give the Wizards a chance to switch offense.

And as the number of rounds on the field decreased, Arenas' reckless shot became the most hurtful way to do the team on this night.

The logic is simple.

The Wizards are averaging around 89 shots per game this season.

But because the pace of the game was infinitely slowed down by the Knicks, they ended up with only 74 shots.

When the team's shots are high, Arenas occasionally chases down a few ultra-long three-pointers, even if he doesn't score, it won't affect the Wizards' offensive rhythm.

But as the team took fewer shots, Arenas' overly liberal style of play on the court was directly reflected on the scoreboards of both teams.

This night, it was Duncan's turn to be in a hurry.

Because he found that even without his assistance, Yao Ming shot 16-of-23 from the field in this game, including free throws and three-pointers, and scored a total of 41 points and 14 rebounds.

Last summer, Duncan took the initiative to transform in addition to losing weight to gain a longer career.

The main purpose is to use his mobility to achieve "1+1 is far greater than 2" with Yao Ming.

But now, without him, Yao Ming can play efficiently, so isn't his transformation equal to turning in vain?

"This Wizards interior line has no one to compete with Yao Ming except Paul.

Plus Corey Margeti couldn't get a foul in New York, so we naturally won easily.

Tim, don't worry, there's no problem with your transformation, it's me who has the problem, who made this Knicks have the best head coach in the world? Looking at Duncan on this day, Wang Shuo smiled.

Hearing this, after rubbing Wang Shuo's head, Duncan left with a wicked smile on his face.

On the 5th, the Knicks went back-to-back to Cleveland to challenge the Cavaliers without James.

Don't say it, after breaking up with James, the Cavaliers are also on the right track.

At present, they have successively surpassed the Bobcats and Magic in the record rankings.

In an effort to reduce the odds of the 2006 first-round pick they gave to the Kings for nothing, the Cavaliers have taken a desperate stance in recent games.

And, after the amnesty of Webb, the Cavaliers currently have quite good salary space.

It has to be said that the emergence of the "Alan Houston Clause" has indeed greatly reduced the pressure on various teams when rebuilding.

That night, in Cleveland, the Knicks failed to make a tragic comeback.

Because according to the comparison of the strength of the Knicks and the Cavaliers, Wang Shuo directly locked Yao Ming and Duncan at home before leading the team to Cleveland, so that the two of them could rest assured.

In the end, the final score of this game was 110-97.

"Second Master Wei" and "Second Master Xi" scored 27 points and 12 rebounds, as well as 21 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists respectively.

And at the same time......

Riley, who noticed that the Knicks dared to be so frustrated recently, also knew that he and Spoelstra had fallen for Wang Shuo's "yang scheme".

Although, the Heat can take turns to rest O'Neal.

But in order to help Wade win the regular season MVP, the Heat couldn't take Wade in turn.

Because if he wants to help Wade win the regular season MVP this season when the Knicks are about to set a new NBA all-time record for the best record, Wade must ensure his attendance and be able to play the miracle of "30+ triple-doubles per game".

Of course, the Heat can also choose to be like the Knicks, who don't care about the regular season MVP at all.

But unlike Yao Ming and Duncan, who have already won the regular season MVP, it is ......

If Wade wants to be crowned king in the true sense of the word, then he must win the regular season MVP this season.

Because historically, until Xiao Hua, who had died in a car accident in this life, was given the "Best Funny Award", the gold content of the NBA regular season MVP has always been very high.

Including the first two regular season MVPs of James' career, no matter how dark you are, Ajan led the Cavaliers to the first place in the East for two consecutive years, and Stern dared to give him this award.

Ha, you say Wade can't wait another year for a championship?

So here's the problem......

As a team that aspires to win as many championships as possible at the peak of Wade's career.

No one really thinks that Spoelstra dares to let Wade drill into the sewers every year, right?

This year, the whole Heat team is willing to serve Wade, first, Wei Shao won the championship for the team last year and made great contributions.

The second is that in the short term, under the premise that no one in this Heat team has the pressure of contract expiration, everyone is willing to sacrifice data to suck Wade's blood.

But next season, Atey is about to enter a contract year.

Spoelstra and Riley are well aware that in a highly uncontrollable future, the Heat can only benefit from helping Wade grasp the moment.

After all, Wade's traffic can also bring a lot of invisible and intangible returns to the Miami Heat.

During this period, after trading O'Neal, the elder Bass spared no effort to praise Kobe, and the same is true.

In the NBA, the star and the team are both prosperous.

Except, of course, in some special cases.

"He's too smart."

On this day, after a long sigh, even if he was a "god operator" Riley, he had to sigh that Wang Shuo's foresight was completely different from that of ordinary NBA coaches.

After a pause, Riley told Spoelstra: "He knows very well that this season, the all-time best record and championship is the most important thing for Yao and Thiem and the team.

In contrast, does a regular season MVP matter?

Conversely, as long as the Knicks can win a championship this season as he envisions, they will only think of Yao and Tim and the Knicks when people talk about this season. ”

Spoelstra smiled bitterly and said, "He is indeed the most affordable head coach in the league I have ever seen." ”

Riley nodded, "That's why he's known as the 'God of Coaching.'"

In this world, everyone will encounter different choices at each stage.

And he has made almost every choice in his coaching career! ”

This time, in the face of Wang Shuo's "Yang Scheme", Riley knew very well that he could only accept the move.

One might ask whether playing a few more games for the NBA's supermen really affects their fitness in the playoffs.

A: Aside from that, the intensity of the final sprint of the regular season is basically equal to that of the playoffs.

As a sport with "instantaneous exertion", basketball certainly recovers faster after a game than football.

But after a long season, no matter how endurable the players' bodies are, they will reach their physical limits.

Such a limit cannot be eliminated even by taking rotational breaks.

Instead, it needs to be recovered through recuperation in the same long offseason.

To put it simply, if a player has a fitness gauge of 100, then after a long season, when he enters the playoffs, his fitness gauge will drop to 70 or 80 depending on the person's physique.

And because the intensity of the playoffs is not the same as that of the regular season, in the playoffs, such changes in fitness often turn into deformations in the players' technical movements on the court and various mistakes.

At this moment, the Knicks, through a frantic rotation, certainly can't restore Yao Ming and Duncan's physical slots to 100 at the beginning of the regular season.

But with the rotation, Yao and Duncan are destined to have longer fitness grooves than their opponents who played more games in the regular season.

In this way, under Wang Shuo's scheduling, the Knicks can ensure that Yao Ming and Duncan can maximize their due level on the court in this year's playoffs.

On the 7th, after a day of rest, the Knicks went to India City to challenge the Pacers.

This season, the injury-plagued Pacers finally got back to full fitness before the end of the regular season.

In this game, in order to keep the playoff ticket, at the Conseco Arena, the Pacers showed the momentum of fighting for their lives.

A full-fledged Pacer does have what it takes to make it to the top half of the East.

In the game, Baron Davis repeatedly attracted the attention of the Knicks' interior defense by blocking and dismantling O'Neal Jr. and Harrington.

Rondo is tall and has long arms, and Dujon is good at wrapping, but neither of them has much to do with Davis's tank.

And on this night, Granger's outside three-pointer was also opened.

Again, that's the truth.

The Pacers need to fight for their lives, but the Knicks don't.

Wang Shuo couldn't have let the players play with their lives in order to eat the Pacers on the road.

In the end, the score of the game was 105-114, and the Knicks suffered their sixth loss of the season on the road.

On the 9th, the Knicks and the Celtics ushered in the last meeting of the season.

Rivers, who watched the video of the Knicks and Pacers game, also sacrificed his chicken soup for the soul this time.

However......

Rivers, who followed the example of Dong Shi, still only had the offensive three-board axe, but the game was not even finished in the third quarter, and Wang Shuo and Brown and others were studying the next Knicks opponent.

Eldest brother!

The Pacers were able to win their last game, and on the surface, it seems that the offensive tactics they played were not complicated, and most of the time it was Davis who was playing pick-and-roll with his interior teammates.

But is there a possibility that the Pacers also played a lot of high-level tactics interspersed during the game?

You must know that on the basketball court, the same way of initiating tactics can be described as ever-changing in details.

And, no matter how much Rivers boosts the morale of the Celtics......

As the game deepened, the difference between the two teams was opened up step by step by the Knicks, and no matter how high the morale was, it would eventually turn into despair.

This time, the Knicks won easily and completed the sweep against the Celtics with a score of 4-0 in the regular season this season.

However, despite Rivers' many slots, the Celtics are currently sitting firmly in the fourth place in the East.

So according to the playoff schedule......

If Rivers can lead the Celtics through the first round of the playoffs, it will be great news for the Knicks.

On the 10th, the Knicks fought the Pacers back-to-back.

This time, at Madison Square Garden, Davis's breakthrough power was significantly reduced.

Don't ask, ask is the home of the New York Devils, which referee who wants to die dares to give the away team a body whistle?

At full time, the finishing score of the two teams was 101-112.

In this game, Duncan once again played "5x5" stats, totaling 20 points, 14 rebounds, 7 assists, 5 blocks and 5 steals.

On the 13th and 14th, after steadily eating the Bucks and Cavaliers, with the last three games left in the regular season, the Knicks officially completed the overtaking of the Chicago Bulls with 73 wins!

Next, every time the Knicks win against an opponent, they will continue to break the record for the best record in NBA history!

After defeating the Bucks away on the 14th, the New York media praised Wang Shuo: "Wang is pushing the city of New York to the top, he is the god of New York!" ”

From the quagmire at the beginning of the century to the peak at this moment, New York fans who have been in a mood of ups and downs in recent years have taken to the streets on this day and began to sing the praises of the changes Wang Shuo has brought to the Knicks.

On the 16th, 17th, and 19th, after defeating the Pistons, Hornets and the last opponent, the Nets, the Knicks finally ended the team's entire journey in the regular season with a proud record of 76-6.

For Knicks fans, being able to use the Nets as a backdrop for the Knicks' great season in the final regular season is simply too perfect to be a perfect ending.

Because Knicks fans who have always looked down on New Jersey will have another joke when mocking the Nets in the future:

Yo, isn't this my poor country relative?

On the night of the 19th, at Madison Square Garden, the entire Knicks team received a salute from the New York fans.

Regardless of how the season ends, Wang Shuo and this team have brought unprecedented pride to Knicks fans at this moment!

On the Internet, Knicks fans patrol everywhere, and as long as any blind little black man dares to blacken Wang Shuo, Yao Ming, and Duncan, they will immediately besiege him.

"76 wins and 6 losses! OMG! This Knicks are definitely the best team the NBA has ever seen! ”

"I think in the future, when people mention the city of New York, in addition to the Yankees, they will have another business card to show the world! I'm incredibly proud of who I am a Knicks fan right now! ”

"Michael Jordan should be glad that he was not born in this era, otherwise Yao and Duncan would definitely join forces to pull him down from the altar!"

Although the regular season has just ended.

But you may not believe it when you say it......

On the night of the 19th, Knicks fans were already calling for James Dolan to build a statue of Wang Shuo immediately!

In the minds of New York fans, even Auerbach can't compete with Wang Shuo!

Because no matter how strong Auerbach is, does he dare to come to the Knicks to challenge himself?

The Knicks' game against the Nets was covered by all the media outlets across the United States.

Many of Wang Shuo's peers were immediately asked whether Wang Shuo was the best coach in NBA history.

Phil Jackson, who was writing a book to complain about Pippen, knew that he was wrong no matter what he said, so he simply chose "pigeon tactics" and refused to accept all interviews.

Popovich, on the other hand, was readmitted to the hospital for heart reasons.

"God Operator" Riley said in an interview that it is still too early to say that Wang Shuo is the best coach in history, but after a pause, Riley added: "In my eyes, it is only a matter of time before Wang becomes the best coach in history. ”

The next day, many New York media outlets left their front page headlines for Wang Shuo and the Knicks, commenting: "In his five-year coaching career, Wang has been successful with three different NBA teams!"

Before he arrived in New York, we all knew what a bad team the Knicks were.

He used his coaching career as a bet that he would definitely lead this team out of the quagmire.

Now, I think, not only did he do what he promised, but he also took the Knicks to the top of the NBA!

He deserves everyone's praise, deserves everyone's support, and New York is proud to have the King and the Knicks! ”

It is no exaggeration to say that at this moment in the territory of New York, even if the US Commander comes, he has to give Wang Shuo three points of thin face.

So, in this "coaching god" who will forever engrave the Knicks and his name on the NBA milestone, how does he feel at the moment?

A: I'm busy fighting with the humanoid pillow!

Compared with Brown and others in the coaching team who are already eager to celebrate with streaking, Wang Shuo was not carried away by the Knicks' success in the regular season.

Because he knows very well that before leading the Knicks to the final cup, no matter how high his reputation is at the moment, the praise for him will only be temporary.

Only by leading the Knicks to the league this season can Wang Shuo start celebrating recklessly.

On the same day, the teams ended the regular season finale one after another, and at the same time as the seating of each team was scheduled, this year's East and West playoff matchups were also released.

In the 05/06 season, the 1st to 15th places in the East are as follows:

Knicks, Heat, Pistons, Celtics, Pacers, 76ers, Wizards, Raptors, Hawks, Bulls, Nets, Bucks, Cavaliers, Bobcats, Magic.

The first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs is as follows:

The Knicks face the Raptors, the Heat PK Wizards, the Pistons vs the 76ers, and the Celtics vs. the Pacers.

At the end of the regular season, the Knicks received a not-so-good news.

That's when the Pacers ended up in fifth place in the East.

Wang Shuo feels that with Rivers' coaching ability, he is likely to lead the Celtics to the Pacers.

Wang Shuo knows very well how difficult this Pacers is to play.

Especially O'Neill Jr. and Harrington.

These two brothers are one of the few interior partners in the East who can pull out the "meme combination" through range.

And if the walker really goes down gram up......

In Wang Shuo's view, the Knicks must treat this opponent seriously and cautiously at that time.

As for the Knicks' opponent in the first round of the playoffs, the Raptors?

Although in the final closing stage, I Cannon and Bosh led the Raptors to play a wave of singing and crying consecutive victories, bringing the city of Toronto back to the playoff stage.

But in Wang Shuo's eyes, there is only one possibility that the Raptors will not be swept by the Knicks in the first round of the playoffs:

That is, Paul ran to the Knicks training gym with his face covered and broke the legs of Yao Ming, Duncan, and West.

In addition, this year's western 1st to 15th places are as follows:

Suns, Mavericks, Nuggets, Houston XX, Jazz, Grizzlies, Kings, Lakers, Spurs, Clippers, Warriors, Timberwolves, SuperSonics, Trail Blazers, Hornets.

Although Bryant has carried the switch of "God to Earth" with him since January of the new year, with the assistance of the Cavaliers, the Kings who won the two new forces of Gooden and Vallejo, held their seventh place in the West in the final stage of the regular season.

Don't look at Wang Shuo's ridicule at every turn that the east is strong and the west is weak, but in fact, the top six teams in the west this year are not weak.

Under Van Gundy's defensive system, how many centers in this league can hammer Howard into a weak chicken?

As the saying goes, defense determines the lower limit, and offense determines the upper limit.

Howard's excellent defense determines that the lower limit of this Houston XX team cannot be low, and the abuse is more stable than the Lakers.

And after a year of slumping last year, this year's Jazz also launched a strong challenge to the Nuggets in the Northwest Division.

With the Devils' home court advantage, the Jazz also have a more consistent ability to abuse vegetables than the Lakers in the regular season.

In the 05/06 season, the first round of the Western Conference playoffs is as follows:

Suns PK Lakers, Mavericks vs. Kings, Nuggets PK Grizzlies, Houston XX vs. Utah Jazz.

On the 20th, the day after the end of the regular season, the data kings of this year's regular season were also released.

Bryant averaged 35.6 points per game and won the NBA's regular season scoring title for the first time in his career.

With 11.8 assists per game, Nash is the NBA's leading assists leader.

The steal king and block king were won by Blevin Knight of the Bobcats and Andrei Kirilenko of the Jazz, respectively.

Due to the fact that in the second half of the regular season, there were fewer and fewer stunned young people who dared to challenge the "emoji combination", so Yao Ming and Duncan did not win the block.

This season, Kirilenko is averaging 15.4 points, 8.0 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 3.2 blocks and 1.7 steals per game, making him a strong contender for the best defensive player in the eyes of many.

As for the rebounding king?

That was certainly acquired by the Knicks' "Flying Devil" Tim Duncan.

This season, Duncan played in a total of 67 regular season games for the Knicks, averaging 32.5 minutes per game, averaging 21.5 points (1,441 points), 14.7 rebounds (985 rebounds), 6.8 assists (456 assists), 2.8 blocks (188 blocks) and 1.5 steals (102 steals) per game.

He shot 51.4 percent from the field, 30.5 percent from three-point range and 73 percent from the free throw line.

This season, Duncan's average of rebounds, assists, and steals per game has set a new personal career record.

In addition, he hit a total of 58 three-pointers in the regular season, which also set a new career high.

It's a pity that since the Knicks can collapse the opponent in half of most games this season, this also seriously affects Duncan's statistics.

It is worth mentioning that this rebounding king is also the first rebounding king of Duncan's personal career.

For Duncan's report card of playing no more than 33 minutes per game, many industry insiders used the word "incredible" to describe it that day.

So here's the problem.

As another king of the New York double kings, Yao Ming handed over the report card this year, how did the industry evaluate it on this day?

In the 05/06 season, Yao Ming played a total of 67 games for the Knicks in the regular season, averaging 32.6 minutes per game, averaging 25.8 points (1728 points), 12.4 rebounds (831 rebounds), 2.0 assists (134 assists), 2.8 blocks (188 blocks) and 0.4 steals (27 steals) per game.

This season, Duncan's addition, although it affected Yao Ming's number of shots on the court, his arrival also made Yao Ming play an unprecedented and unprecedented terrifying efficiency on the court!

This season, Yao, who averaged 15 shots per game (out of a total of 1,005), shot 57 percent overall and 41.4 percent from three-point range, making a total of 261 three-pointers, hitting 108 of them.

Last season, Yao Ming failed to join the "180 Club" regret, but this season successfully filled it, because with his high free throw shooting rate of 91.2%, Yao Ming perfectly met the "50+40+90" "180 Club" hard standard.

At the end of the regular season, after calculating according to the formula of the true hit rate, industry insiders were surprised to find that Yao Ming's true hit rate this season had reached an astonishing 70%!

What is the concept of a 70% true hit rate?

You can probably understand that Yao Ming gives you a visual effect on the court, basically the ball is given to him, and he can get the ball into the basket 100%.

In Wang Shuo's previous life, even Stephen Curry, who is known for his efficiency, only hit a true shooting rate of 67.5%.

Under the Knicks' tactical system, there is no need to even wait for Yao Ming to retire, according to his performance in the Knicks in the past two seasons, the New York media "closed the coffin" for him: "Yao Ming is the ceiling of scoring efficiency in the center position in the long history of the NBA!" No rebuttals will be accepted! ”

In the regular season, the Excel of the New York Double Kings can be said to have greatly shocked people's hearts.

Because in everyone's general perception, Yao Ming and Duncan didn't make much effort in the regular season this year!

That is to say, in the playoffs, these two will be even more terrifying!

That's why stereotypes are so deceptive.

In fact, no matter how serious Yao Ming and Duncan are, they can only increase the main statistics such as points and rebounds, but cannot continue to improve efficiency.

On the contrary, when it comes to the playoffs, these two will also affect their efficiency because of the increase in shots.

According to the schedule, the Knicks will face off in the first round of their playoff game against the Raptors on April 23.

The Knicks are home and away, and the schedule is 22111.

Before the game, experts widely predicted that the Knicks would win the series 4-0.

Although after the playoff matchup was released, Chris Paul, who is naturally strong, said in an interview that the Raptors will fight until the last minute in the game against the Knicks.

But......

In the face of absolute overwhelming strength, Paul's so-called struggle ......

In Wang Shuo's view, it's just to increase the fighting spirit of "slaying dragons" a little bit for the Knicks.

After the finale of the regular season, Wang Shuo did not schedule a single training session before the playoffs.

It's about letting the players go home and rest.

The one who should play the game, the sister who should be the sister, and the one who should accompany the family.

In Wang Shuo's eyes, in this round of the series with the Raptors, the Knicks are just waiting for the Eastern Conference semifinals while playing four training games.

Don't ask, if you don't even have this confidence, why should he Wang Shuo be the god of coaching?
