Chapter 400 [Sweep again, take the lead to advance]
Yang Jian leads this season's NBA All-NBA First Team, and the other four are Jordan, Grant Hill, Karl Malone, and Olajuwon.
Tim Hardaway changed important history and provided an attribute point. In a parallel world, Hardaway's selection to the first team can be said to be a complete mess.
"Little Bug" Hardaway averaged 20.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 8.6 assists and 1.9 steals per game with the Heat, shooting only 41.5% from the field and 34.4% from the three-point range. He averaged 20.3 points on 17.1 shots per game, which is definitely not efficient. In
On the defensive end, he is the Heat's biggest weakness.
Entering the playoffs, Xiaochong's performance can only be described as "pitched". In the first round of the series, he was beaten by the Magic's "Penny" Anfernee Hardaway. He shot only 30.1% from the field and scored 14.4 points and 9.8 assists.
.
Being selected to the first team in 1997 was the biggest honor in Xiaochong's career, the only one. Unfortunately, in which round did Yang Jian get him? Last season, Yang Jian squeezed out another Hardaway.
All-NBA Second Team: Tim Hardaway, Gary Payton, Scottie Pippen, Shawn Kemp, Patrick Ewing.
Glenn Rice's fate has also been changed. He should have been selected to the second team this year. Kemp squeezed him out. This has little to do with Yang Jian, so he did not provide points.
Rice's historical status has been almost lost to Butterfly, missing the most important All-Star Game MVP and All-NBA Second Team.
Kemp provides Yang Jian with an attribute point. In a parallel world, Kemp gained nothing this season and was very unhappy with the team management. Now that he is selected for the second team, it is obviously because he is a teammate with Yang Jian.
There is no problem with the relationship between Kemp and the SuperSonics management. The matter of him getting a big contract has long been discussed. The high salary will definitely be there, but he cannot stay in the SuperSonics. The management will not give Kemp an insulting offer, of course.
It won't anger him either.
In a parallel world, the conflict between the two sides was because the Sonics did not have Yang Jian. The management renewed the contract of shooting guard Hersey Hawkins with a high salary in the summer, and also poached blue-collar center Jim McElwain at a premium, making it clear that it did not want to renew.
Jocamp.
The salaries of these two people are much higher than Kemp's this season. How can Kemp endure it? Kemp feels that the Sonics used his own money to sign these two role players who combined are not as good as him.
No matter how big Yang Jian's contract is, Kemp won't have any objection, because he feels inferior. Yang Jian made him a member of the championship team, and he is only grateful in his heart.
Best third team: John Stockton, Mitch Richmond, Glenn Rice, Vin Baker, Shaquille O'Neal.
Penny Hardaway and Anthony Mason Jr., who were originally selected for the third team, were squeezed out of the All-NBA team. One of them had a low attendance rate, and the other had poor statistics.
The competition for the best team is too fierce. Mason averaged 16.2 points, 11.4 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 1.6 steals per game, even if the data is poor. His score is only higher than Stockton, who averaged 14.4 points, 2.8 assists, 10.5 assists and 2 steals per game.
Yang Jian received a total of 5 attribute points, all of which were added to basketball skills, for a total of 74 points. The system's evaluation is still "excellent".
The next day the media reported that Yang Jian won the award. Many stars were interviewed and all gave positive reviews.
There are not many retired celebrities who have evaluated Yang Jian. Only a few people such as Magic Johnson and Isiah Thomas also gave him good reviews. Yang Jian's statistics and record are so strong that no one can hack him this year. Look at him.
If you don't like it, just don't mention him.
He didn't trade his high number of shots for data. He took fewer shots than Jordan and scored more points. His assists even surpassed Jordan's average of 4.3 assists per game. How is this so bad?
Not many fans feel that Yang Jian should not be selected as the 50 greatest superstars in NBA history. He has set many historical records this season, which is unprecedented.
Some fans even believe that the most improved player this season is Yang Jian. His efficiency value and assists have improved significantly compared with last season. Award-winning blue-collar center Isaac Austin has not improved as much as him.
Several entertainment media also reported on Yang Jian, saying that many fans are looking forward to him shooting a new romantic comedy movie and participating in the movie's promotional activities to meet fans.
The playoffs continue, and Game 3 between the SuperSonics and the Lakers is held in Los Angeles.
The Lakers also failed to boost their morale at their home court and were in trouble at the beginning. In the end, they lost the game 94-111 and trailed 0-3 with a total score.
Yang Jian and Kemp continued to play pick-and-rolls at O'Neal's point, causing O'Neal to quickly fall into foul trouble.
O'Neal only played 20 minutes, making 6 of 10 shots, 2 of 6 free throws, and scored 14 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists. He was replaced and rested for a while, and then he didn't have to come back.
The SuperSonics led by 35 points at most, allowing the game to enter garbage time.
The only bright spot for the Lakers was the outstanding performance of young player Kobe Bryant in the final quarter. He played 19 minutes, made 3 of 7 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers, 13 of 14 free throws, and scored 19 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists.
The Lakers' starting shooting guard Eddie Jones was once again beaten by Yang Jian. He played 26 minutes and made 2 of 5 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 6 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.
It is not common for an All-Star player to score in double figures in a row. Many viewers can see that Eddie Jones and Yang Jian have a psychological shadow in their matchup.
With Yang Jian behind him, he had no choice but to break through and dare not force a shot. He could only pass the ball to find his teammates. On the defensive end, he also had no ability to limit Yang Jian on his own.
In a parallel world, it is not surprising that the Lakers management would choose to trade Eddie Jones to support Kobe. At critical moments, when the team needs stars to step up and score, Eddie Jones will definitely not be able to step up. His personality determines his upper limit.
Of course, if Eddie Jones really desperately beats Yang Jian and takes crazy shots while strictly guarding against interference, the result will definitely be worse. Ability also determines the upper limit of a player, and Jones is not a super scorer.
In the fourth game, coach Del Harris reluctantly began to reuse Kobe.
Everyone on the coaching staff can see that Eddie Jones is afraid to play against Yang Jian, which reduces his playing time. Someone on the outside must step up to score, otherwise the Lakers will definitely lose.
However, this arrangement is also wrong. Kobe's matchup with Yang Jian also does not have the slightest advantage.
Kobe is not an excellent off-ball attacker, and rarely looks for a cover to catch the ball and shoot directly. It is too difficult for him to get rid of Yang Jian by running without looking for a cover. As soon as he gets the ball, he is closely followed. At this time, Kobe is not trained to "
"Little Ma Long" is just a little taller, so he obviously suffers a disadvantage against Yang Jian.
It is much easier for Yang Jian to beat Kobe. He can find a cover to catch the ball and shoot or attack with the ball. As long as he gets a little space, he can force a breakthrough with Kobe's impact.
This crushing style of play is pure bullying. If you are not as strong as me, you can't guard me. As soon as Yang Jian rushes up, he can layup or attract inside defense to pass the ball to his teammates.
Kobe angrily spat trash talk at Yang Jian. "If you have the ability, just shoot. What kind of ball can you pass?" Yang Jian passed the ball as he should and ignored him at all.
Veteran Sam Perkins has become a nightmare for the Lakers. If the corner is not left open, Yang Jian's breakthrough is too sharp to be guarded by one person. If the corner is left open, Perkins catches the ball and throws it into the hollow.
Perkins completely broke out this time. He played 25 minutes and made 8 of 9 shots, 6 of 7 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 24 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists.
Yang Jian played 37 minutes, making 10 of 17 shots, 4 of 9 three-pointers, and 10 of 10 free throws. He scored 34 points, 4 rebounds, 15 assists, and 3 steals. He also played 6 minutes in the final quarter, which made the Lakers players want to compete in real life.
, George Karl quickly called a timeout and replaced all the main players.
O'Neal made 12 of 19 shots, 10 of 15 free throws, and scored 34 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, and 6 blocks. He performed very well and made all free throws, but unfortunately the support from his teammates was not enough.
Van Exel made 4 of 12 shots, 1 of 3 three-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, and only had 15 points, 3 rebounds, and 7 assists. Payton scored 22 points and 8 assists, with a much higher shooting percentage, and completely defeated his opponent in the series.
Eddie Jones made 3 of 8 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, 2 of 4 free throws, and only scored 9 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists. Kobe Bryant made 3 of 9 shots, 3 of 6 three-pointers, 9 points, and 2 rebounds.
Team-high 5 turnovers.
The combined statistics of the Lakers' two shooting guards were not as good as Yang Jian's. They also had four fouls each and were completely beaten.
Chapter completed!
