On April 18, 2001, at Madison Square Garden, Patrick Ewing waved to the New York fans with tears in his eyes after a game.

At 88:94, the Knicks relied on the excellent performance of the rotation lineup to win the final game.

The fans at the scene stood up and applauded to thank Ewing for being with them for many years.

On the MSG commentary seat, Mike Brin also clapped his hands vigorously and almost cried for a while.

For him, Ewing has been with him for most of his commenting career, and the Knicks' struggles in the early '90s seem like they happened yesterday.

Subconsciously looking up at the championship flag over the arena, Mike Brin said emotionally:

"The era that belongs to Patrick Ewing is completely over, thanks to his perseverance, God will never fail those who work hard, and a new era belonging to Lee is about to begin!"

Walter Fraser, who was on the side, was dressed very formally tonight, in addition to the slightly coquettish blue patterned tie, the legend also said:

"It's been a pleasure to witness Pat's career for 16 seasons and thank him for his many years of companionship."

“.”

With the win, Ewing finished his career season with 62 wins in the regular season.

After Lee Woo joined the team, in addition to the shortened season, the Knicks have maintained 60+ wins, which is not only the highlight of Ewing's career, but also allows Jeff Van Gundy to set many records.

The bald young marshal was holding Li You's shoulders on the sidelines at this time and looked at Ewing and couldn't help but smile, they all waited for their thighs, this is God's favor.

Li You also smiled and applauded constantly, he didn't go crazy to score in the last few games of the regular season, and when the scoring champion turned into a math problem, he also chose to "want face".

The "tour" was still very successful, and throughout the season, Ewing was mostly in the first and fourth quarters, and most of them were able to get two double-doubles except for a few games with crotch pulls.

For fans in New York, Ewing is still capable of his final season, and years of double-double stats are the hallmark of the gorillas.

Of course, the numbers are limited, and Ben Wallace has been in good form this season, but the rebounding stats have taken some heels.

The reason why the players will compete for the starting spot is also the reason for the data, but fortunately, Ewing has been with the Knicks long enough, and the big men who are fishing on the bench make up the majority;

Otherwise, with the current physical condition, if the gorilla wants to be the starter and get two pairs, the locker room will have to fight first

The cheers at Madison Square Garden grew louder and louder, and there were many longtime fans here tonight to witness the end of Ewing's regular season.

In the center of the venue, Ewing held the microphone, looked at the familiar faces on the sidelines, and said excitedly:

"Thank you all, I have no regrets in my career!"

“.”

Grant Hill, who returned from injury tonight and only played 20 minutes, still played the role of mascot after the game, taking photos with the fans.

Injuries have taken away some of his explosiveness, and although he has been prepared for it, Grant Hill is still a little disappointed, after all, he is not yet 30 years old, and theoretically, his career is still on the rise.

There are still not many problems with scoring 15 points in a game, but considering that the Knicks have more rounds and more counter-attacks, Grant Hill also knows the moisture of the data.

Walter Fraser was pulling Ewing and the celebrities to blow each other, and Mike Brin also came to Li You's side at this time, laughing and quipping:

"Lee, it's a shame that you're just one step away from becoming the youngest Mr. 10,000 points in NBA history this season."

"At 23 years old, that's an incredible achievement!"

Not long ago, the New York media just helped Li You celebrate that he became the youngest player in NBA history to score 9,000 points, but there are too many scoring records, and many ball critics have become numb.

This season, Li You has become the youngest player in NBA history to score 7,000 points, 8,000 points, and 9,000 points.

Li You didn't care about his scoring record, but responded with a relaxed expression:

'Actually, I prefer 62 wins this year, which shows that our young players are growing.

"Completing the transition between the old and the new in this way is a victory for New York!"

With his current stature, these records are a matter of course, and Li You has absolute confidence in his durability.

Everyone in the Knicks is smiling, with 62 wins, first in the regular season, and everyone has absolute confidence in the next playoffs.

After all, the second-place 76ers can't put too much pressure on them, and the other Eastern teams are just chickens and dogs!

Artest jumped, took off his jersey and wore a vest, laughed at himself on the sidelines, and when he saw a camera facing him, he kept shouting:

"Finals, here we come!"

On the morning of April 19, Li You still got up early and jogged along the fixed route with Husky Happy at 5 o'clock.

It's no longer cold in Manhattan in April, and Li You, who is wearing a black quick-drying suit, smiles all the way and greets fans who wake up early to exercise.

After the revelations of the New York media, many fans will also meet Li You in the morning, and of course, more scheming will also show their beautiful bodies, looking forward to further development between the two parties.

Happy raised the husky's characteristic smiling face and kept fluttering beside Li You, which also played a role in driving away, after all, this dog was huge, although it looked silly, but it made many girls shy away.

After breathing in the fresh air, at 7 o'clock, when Li You returned to his home on 82nd Street, the house was also lively.

Jin, who was wearing pajamas, saw Li You's figure and took the initiative to kiss him, and then hurriedly prepared to change his clothes, and at the same time reminded loudly:

"The three major stock indexes are still falling, but there seem to be signs of bottoming out, and some investors who are bearish on the stock market seem to be withdrawing."

"In short, this is not a good sign, remember to pay more attention to these news."

Milinda, who was tied in a ponytail and wearing only a wide T-shirt, watched Happy keep licking the water, and knew that the amount of exercise in the morning was not small.

glared at Li You coquettishly, and after handing over the towel, Milinda quietly reminded again:

"Kim seems to be ready to sue Bronz's gang and crime syndicate, and has been particularly busy lately!"

Although sometimes he plays some interesting games at night, Li You is not a demon in the color, so he slapped the big wave girl and said funny:

"Of course I know, remember to take care of her! Do you want to take a bath together? ”

“.”

Breakfast was served by Laura Katis, a 32-year-old Italian chef with a good and approachable look and a small Italian restaurant in Manhattan.

Just gave birth to her second child last year, and Lola, who was a little fat, looked at the happy smiling face behind her and said helplessly:

"There's no more for you, Happy, you've got to lose weight!"

After joining Li You's team, Lola has fully adapted to the current rhythm of life in the past six months, looking at Li who was eating happily at the dining table, he said with a smile:

"Li, the girls will definitely envy your good appetite!"

The weekly high-calorie dessert breakfast, even the croissant with chocolate sauce, Li You sipping coffee and nodding with a smile, desserts always make people feel happy.

Mike on the other side is old and has no love for high-calorie sweets, and while reading the newspaper, he complains about the security of New York:

"There are thefts on the Upper East Side, too, maybe you should have fewer parties, the house is too big, and people with intentions have already made this place a target."

Mike, who squinted his eyes, saw that Li You didn't care, and added seriously:

"It's the second time we've caught a scumbag who wants to burglobe, maybe you should donate some American knives to the police station, we need more care."

Li You looked at the two girls who had changed into professional clothes, turned his head and nodded at Mike, and casually promised:

"Don't worry, I'll communicate with the police department, and it's easy to talk about the problems that can be solved with money!"

As the playoffs are coming to the 21st, the Knicks have been training as usual for both days.

The regular season has come to an end, and the team record rankings of the Eastern and Western Conferences have also been officially released.

The eight teams in the Eastern Conference that made the playoffs were:

62 wins for the Knicks, 55 wins for the 76ers, 50 wins for the Bucks, 48 wins for the Heat;

45 wins for the Raptors, 44 wins for the Hornets, 42 wins for the Magic, 41 wins for the Pacers.

The eight teams that made the playoffs in the Western Conference were:

57 wins for the Spurs, 54 wins for the Lakers, 54 wins for the Kings, 52 wins for the Mavericks;

The Jazz with 52 wins, the Suns with 50 wins, the Trail Blazers with 50 wins, and the Timberwolves with 46 wins.

In the first round, the Knicks will face the Pacers, Isiah Thomas is the rookie coach, and the playoffs meet the defending champions, and the ball critics are naturally one-sided predictions.

In the first round, the Lakers met the Trail Blazers, and this season, the Trail Blazers, who were the first in salary, failed to play as dominant as expected, and compared to last season, the player's form generally declined.

Sean Kemp holds nearly 12 million US dollars and averages 6.5 points per game off the bench, which is not as good as Ewing, who can "suck blood".

Pippen, the team's highest-paid player, has been plagued by injuries and is averaging just 11.3 points per game this season.

Spending money to be beaten, if the Trail Blazers are out of the first round, the team will most likely disintegrate completely.

Although the Spurs are in excellent form and have beaten the Knicks twice this season, they are not favored to enter the playoffs.

The Lakers, who have recovered from injury, are still the most favored team, and as long as O'Neal is healthy, there is still no one in the league who can limit the super center.

On the morning of the 19th, the NBA league also announced the data leaders of this season:

Playing in 71 games and averaging 31.1 points per game, Allen Iverson successfully won the scoring title this season;

Playing in 75 games and averaging 13.5 rebounds per game, Dicambe Mutombo was named the rebounding leader of the season;

Playing in 50 games and averaging 3.7 blocks per game, Theo Latrive was named the block king this season;

Played in 81 games, averaging 10.3 assists per game, Li You won the assist king this season;

Played in 81 games and averaged 2.6 steals per game, Li You won the steal king this season;

won both the assist king and the steal king, and Lee Woo also became the second player in NBA history to achieve this achievement!

After the NBA league announced the winners, ball critics followed the heated discussion, and Li You's record began to sweep the league again.

On the morning of the 20th, the New York media, who got the data in advance, were not in a beautiful mood, and in their opinion, Iverson ruined Li You's perfect season:

"Lee will make that 'inefficient data brush' pay!"

“.”

Early in the morning, the major print media ridiculed Iverson for brushing data, and with ESPN's regular season data ranking announced in the morning, the "inefficient brush" seemed to have been hammered.

In the regular season total scoring list, Li You ranked first with 2478 points;

On the assist list, Li You ranked first with 837 assists in a single season;

On the steal list, Li You made 213 steals in a single season, also ranking first;

On the three-point shooting list, Li You has declined, with 216 three-pointers in a single season, ranking second.

The first place went to Antoine Walker, with 221 three-pointers in a single season;

On the list of three-point shooting percentage, Li You ranked 10th with a three-point shooting rate of 40.2%, which declined again;

On the free throw list, Li You hit 638 free throws in a single season, ranking first, and hitting 7.9 free throws per game, ranking third.

Jerry Stackhouse leads the free throw list, averaging 8.3 free throws per game, ranking first, followed by Iverson averaging 8.2 free throws per game.

On the list of free throw shooting percentage, Reggie Miller ranks first with 92.8% of free throw percentage, and the second place is Alan Houston with 90.9%.

Lee Woo was third with a 90.4 percent free throw percentage;

On the list of true hit rate, Li You ranks second with a true hit rate of 64.3%.

First place went to Brent Barry of the SuperSonics, a substitute who shot 66 percent from the field.

Compared to last season, Lee Woo seems to have declined, but with ESPN's release of the efficiency list a little later, the ball critics are frying!

Li You's PER is as high as 35.3, and he ranks first without any suspense.

In second place is Shaquille O'Neal's 30.2;

Vince Carter was third with 25.0.

The PER of 35.3 is also the highest efficiency value in the history of the NBA regular season, and Li You broke the PER record of 31.8 for Wilt Chamberlain in the 62~63 season!

In the 2000~2001 season, in 81 regular season games, Li You played an average of 36.3 minutes per game.

averaged 30.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 10.3 assists, 2.6 steals, 0.4 blocks and 2.8 turnovers per game.

He averaged 20.0 shots per game and shot 50.2 percent from the field and 6.5 attempts from beyond the three-point line and shot 40.2 percent from three-point range.

He averaged 8.7 free throws per game and shot 90.4% from the free-throw line.

As ESPN released detailed data for Lee Woo this season, the NBA league also congratulated:

"After Larry Bird, Mark Price, Reggie Miller, congratulations to Lee for becoming the fourth club player in NBA history to reach 180!"

Of course, the record doesn't stop there:

At 23 years and 108 days, Lee also broke the record set by 25-year-old Mark Price and became the youngest 180 club player in NBA history!

After Oscar Robertson and Knight Archibald, Lee Woo became the third player in NBA history to score 30+10.

After detailed technical statistics, Li You is the first player to achieve 30+10 double-double data, and the New York media has already gotten the data

On the evening of the 20th, TNT continued to warm up for tomorrow night's playoffs.

The three of them did not predict the game at this time, but discussed Li You's PER with great interest.

Kenny Smith was a little incredulous after getting the news, and was still sighing at this time:

"I thought there was a problem with the data, but after two days of accounting, our peers told me it was all true!"

"Lee overtakes Wilt Chamberlain and Michael Jordan? Incredible performance. ”

Charles Barkley didn't react much, glanced at his partner, and said a little strangely:

"I wasn't surprised that Lee had that performance in last year's playoffs, he just continued his previous performance."

Kenny Smith shook his head and quickly retorted:

"Last year's playoffs were just a small sample size, and in the regular season, Lee played in 81 games!"

"But you should also take into account that the Knicks' opponents are mostly Eastern Conference teams, and if you look at their record, I don't think teams are too competitive in the playoffs."

"I have a lot of respect for the players, but the top half of the Eastern Conference still has some quality, and the bottom half of the team can't even make the playoffs in the Western Conference."

Charles Barkley's words made Kenny Smith powerless to refute, the record does not lie, and the Eastern Conference did have a point.

Of course, Ernie Johnson heard the voiceover, "Li You's data has moisture", but in the show, he naturally did not say such things, but continued to tout:

"With 62 wins, the Knicks also have a high win rate against Western teams, and considering the team's replacement of old and new and injuries, there is no doubt that Lee will win the MVP!"

"This season, Lee has once again played at an all-time level!"

Charles Barkley, who was touching his chin, did not refute this time, but smiled and arched the fire:

"I'm looking forward to Aaron Iverson proving himself in the playoffs!"

"With a 42 percent shooting percentage and a 32 percent three-point shooting percentage, he also faced a large number of Eastern Conference opponents, and his performance was much worse than Lee."

"If I were Iverson, I wouldn't have chosen to take the scoring title, he ruined Lee's perfect season!"

“.”

Although he lost the scoring title, the title of "Record Crusher" was still buckled on Li You's head.

The Pacers, who have flown to New York, have kept a low profile, the team's record has declined, and Reggie Miller has become more and more disgusted to play in New York.

On the afternoon of the 21st, when the Pacers came to Madison Square Garden to warm up, Isiah Thomas smiled and gave an interview to the New York media before the game.

When asked about Li You's stats, the Smiling Assassin didn't skimp on his praise:

"In my opinion, Lee has surpassed Michael Jordan, he is the best player in the league!"

"Mydk is great, but he can't play like Lee does, and throughout his career, he's made a lot of free throws, and Lee can hit shots from anywhere on the court."

"The times are advancing, as long as Li can stay healthy and surpass Maikou, it is only a matter of time!"

The New York media around listened to it and were overjoyed, so if they could talk, they would say more! The affirmation from the old opponent made everyone happy

Reggie Miller is not in the mood for commercial boasting, and the 180 Club is also his pride, and now Lee has achieved that achievement.

At the age of 29, in the 93~94 season, at the peak of his career, Reggie Miller suddenly missed himself who scored in the 180 club

After Li You's record swept the league in the past two days, most of the competitors were silent.

Li You's boastful bull X has been realized again, and there is indeed no suspense about the MVP.

Before the start of the game, Jeff Van Gundy, who was fluttering, was also a blow in an interview:

"Lee is the best player in the league right now, and as long as he's on the floor, he can provide a huge impact on both ends of the floor."

"Think about the defense he's faced this season, and as the season goes on, Lee gets a lot of packs every game, questioning his stats, and it's better to watch a few more Knicks games."

"No one can have Lee's influence, he's the real MVP!"

Kick-off at 17:30 officially kicked off, New York fans entered the arena early, and the first game of the playoffs was just in time for Saturday, and tickets were once again in short supply.

As the lights in the arena dimmed, Li You was the last to appear, and cheers rang out through Madison Square Garden.

Coming to the center of the field, Li You, wearing a training uniform, smiled and accepted the two crystal trophies handed by Adam Silva.

Although he lost the scoring title, Li You was still in a good mood, holding two trophies and taking a group photo with the staff of the league.

On the away bench, Reggie Miller and the Pacers watched Li You turn around and raise a glass, their faces were a little ugly, and they soon heard the excited shouts of the New York fans:

“MVP！ MVP！ MVP！ ”
