CIATB Chapter 372 Ray Allen Comes to Give Strength to His Brothers Again
Chapter 372 Ray Allen Comes to Give Strength to His Brothers Again
Chapter 372 Ray Allen is here to give his buddy strength again
After the skills challenge, there was the three-point shooting contest. Booker successfully won the championship with 28 points. The league began to notice the Suns' No. 15 pick in the first round of 13. .
Although the Suns record is at the bottom of the league this season, Devin Booker's data is not bad, with 24.9 points, 4.5 rebounds and 4.7 assists.
Speaking of which, later Devin Booker's ability to become one of the top "scoring machines" in the league is inseparable from the poor environment that the Suns have provided for him in recent years.
In this regard, Devin Booker is similar to Kevin Durant.
They all use piece after piece of "fine iron" to pile up the road to the "super scorer"!
Even this season, Devin Booker's field goal percentage is not high, only 43.5%... But since this season, Devin Booker's field goal percentage has never dropped below 46%...
"Slam Dunk King" belongs to "Michael Jordan's current pride" Mitchell.
It is worth mentioning that Mitchell originally participated in the "Skills Challenge", but because of Aaron Gordon's sudden injury, he replaced the latter, and his place in the Skills Challenge was replaced by Dinwiddie. Thinking of being self-defeating, he actually won the slam dunk contest.
The original Mitchell focused on "nostalgia", and this time Mitchell is the same. Although the last "360-degree turn and dunk dunk" imitating Carter, the most similar to the original is the Raptors on him. jersey.
But compared to other contestants who are more drawn, he somehow made Vince Carter on the sidelines cry.
Even Michael Jordan, who was also on the sidelines, was not very happy.
If you don't pay tribute to your boss, let's just pay tribute to a guy who can't beat him, right?
Can his "Canadian trapeze" have my "first generation trapeze" classic?
He saw that Mitchell had a bone in the back of his head.
After the slam dunk contest, the second day of the All-Star Weekend also came to an end.
Li Wan was smiling when he left, and shook the "Skills Challenge Champion" trophy in his hand to the camera.
The media were not surprised, because after winning this trophy, Li Wan became the first player in NBA history to win all three major challenges.
The next day's media headlines were all blasted by him.
Abnormal physical talent, excellent shooting ability and such adept and stable basic skills...
"I know why this man can dominate an era!"
"To be honest, it was at this moment that I really felt how buggy Li Wan really is!"
"I thought Michael Jordan was already the best work of God, but now it seems that after more than ten years of hard work, God broke through himself and created Li Wan!"
……
And the photo of Li Wan smiling at the camera with the championship trophy of the Skills Challenge also became a poster with very objective sales in the future.
They can understand why Li Wan is so excited, after all...another "historical first" has been included in his pocket.
But the reason why Li Wan was really happy was that after he won the "Skills Challenge" championship, there was only one task left before the upgrade template:
Become the three-point leader in NBA history!
His three-pointers per game have remained unabated this season.
About 5.2 three-pointers can be thrown in each game...
As of the end of the regular season before the All-Star Weekend, his three-pointers this season have reached 292!
With more than 30 games left in this season, it is no surprise that Li Wan’s three-pointers this season will reach 400 plus... In this way, he will become the first player in NBA history to achieve 3 consecutive seasons Players who made at least 400 [-]-pointers.
No one expected that Stephen Curry's crazy three-point shooting season would force out an even crazier Li Wan.
And after Li Wan made another 292 three-pointers, he is only 35 away from the NBA's "historical three-pointers". Li Wan's average three-pointer speed this season is the highest. With 8 more games, he can surpass Ray Allen again and win the title of "historical three-pointer king"...
Most importantly, he is about to get the SSS-level template!
This game, he is about to pass the level!
The "zero krypton gold" player, after 11 years of hard work, finally brought him to the door of the "last level".
To be honest, he doesn't care what's behind the "door" anymore.
As far as the template combination of jr-Smith plus DeRozan and Leonard and Stephen Curry he has now, he has long been the most buggy existence in this league. Even in the evaluation of the media, he is also Became the "God of Basketball" created by Xiaochao Michael Jordan!
But upgrading the system to the full level will undoubtedly give Li Wan a great sense of satisfaction.
At least I didn't live up to this chance.
The third day of the All-Star Weekend arrived as scheduled.
There are many new faces entering the All-Star Weekend this year...
Especially on the Eastern side, such as the Wizards' "backcourt double guns" Bradley Beal and John Wall, and the 15-year "No. 18.3 pick" Towns who was selected by the Pistons in this time and space, as a team A super rookie who averaged 10.2 points and 25.1 rebounds per game since his debut, Towns has already scored 12.3 points and 24.5 rebounds in the second season of his career. Although he did not go further this season, he still scored 11.5. Points and [-] rebounds...
As far as the data is concerned, it is really too easy for Downs.
It's just that he has an innate "soft" temperament.
Even if he was selected by the Pistons with the spirit of "iron and blood" this time, it failed to change this temperament.
In three years, the Pistons are still ranked tenth in the Eastern Conference.
But...it was a little bit close to the playoffs, and his personal data was really gorgeous, so he was finally selected to the All-Star bench in the Eastern Conference.
Some are newly selected, and some are eliminated. Howard, who was the starting center in the Eastern Conference last season, directly lost the All-Star Weekend this season.Firstly, the Wizards have already had two players selected for the All-Star bench, but their record has not yet reached the point where so many people can be selected; secondly... After joining the Wizards, Howard's tactical status has declined, and his personal data has also declined , averaging only 15.6 points, 9.8 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per game, it is true that there is no capital to enter the All-Star bench.
The starting lineup in the West has changed before the All-Star weekend. James Harden injured his thigh muscle two or three days before the crazy one-month All-Star weekend in January. For about a month, this made him unable to participate in this All-Star Game.
His starting seat was replaced by Russell Westbrook.
This season's "Turtle" performance is still very brave, averaging 27.8 points, 11.4 rebounds and 10.4 assists per game. Compared with last season, the temperature has dropped a lot, but there is a reason for this. The Thunder this season is still dominated by Westbrook single-handedly, but the other strong teams in the West this year are at least "two-man teams", and after one season, everyone is familiar with his style of play. , is more targeted.
Westbrook's shortcomings are indeed obvious. These are the reasons why his data has declined, and the Thunder are currently hovering at eighth and ninth in the Western Conference...
But his popularity is still the same as before, ranking third in the western guard line, losing to Stephen Curry and James Harden.
Now that James Harden is injured, he will naturally replace him.
James Harden was also injured. There was a warm scene in this year's All-Star Game: Anthony Davis, who started the game, was not wearing his own No. 23, but James Harden's No. 1.
He did this kind of thing during the original 18 All-Star Weekend.It's just that the "brainless" Cousins who was traded from the Kings to the Daigo was injured at the time.
Now, he made the same principle as before.
It is said that "sister-in-law" is gentle, but this "brother with thick eyebrows" is not worse than the "sister-in-law" back then.
Let’s just say that after he won the championship with that one in 20 years, the media didn’t vote for him even a single MVP vote. He still blessed LeBron very sincerely. Even later, this man shouted the slogan “411”, he The choice is also two words:
Believe!
Of course, this also has a lot to do with his agent being Rich Paul...
As for the refusal of the Lakers' contract extension offer for LeBron in the summer of 23 years later, don't think too much about it. It was Rich Paul who brought "thick eyebrows" to make the Lakers management dare not move LeBron James at will. , You have to "smile" to cooperate.
It can only be said that LeBron better not retire, or else...
Of course, there are not no agents as powerful as Rich Paul, such as Michael Jordan's agent, but after the "flying man" retired, his influence has shrunk a lot.
They will all be liquidated!
It's a pity that "Nongmei" is such a gentle person.
Ok……
But it's not surprising that some of the peak "super giants" who cooperated with the self-proclaimed "goat" were not "drained".
In this All-Star Game, Li Wan didn't play for too long. He played 10 minutes in the first half and 12 minutes in the second half, and his offensive desire was very low. Basically, he was passing and assisting. In 22 minutes, he 11 assists were sent out.
The All-Star rookies in the Eastern Conference are very energetic in their performances.
But because Li Wan didn't exert his strength, the Eastern All-Star team lost to the Western All-Star team by 128 to 139, by 11 points.
The Warriors have four people selected to the final All-Star lineup this year: LeBron James, Klay Thompson, Stephen Curry and "Dream Chaser" Green.
D'Antoni gave them plenty of playing time, coupled with Oden inside, the court was full of pressure.
LeBron James scored 38 points, 11 rebounds and 15 assists to become the eventual All-Star MVP…
After winning the victory, he looked at Oden with bright eyes.
The Warriors have found the last piece of the puzzle...
This is another All-Star MVP he has won since 06. In an interview, he said, "This is a very good experience. You know, any award in Los Angeles will be different!"
On the night of his speech, there was news in the Los Angeles media that "LeBron may join the Lakers in the future", and he was met with a lot of complaints...
The fans in Los Angeles, in particular, reacted the most violently:
"What is he doing here?"
"Do the Lakers really want a homeless guy like this?"
"I'm starting to miss old Bath!"
……
Rich Paul sent those comments to LeBron James overnight, saying:
"Man, we've reached the point where we can't afford to lose!"
As far as this wind is concerned, if the Warriors still can't win the championship, their situation in the trading market this summer...
LeBron James couldn't help but shiver.
In fact, these news were released by the LeBron team, the purpose is to test the reaction of the outside world.
It turned out to be worse than they thought.
LeBron James seems to have revealed the "eyes of death":
This season, they must succeed!
On February 2, with the end of the All-Star Weekend, the free market officially closed. In this year's trading market, there were no overly heavy buzzer deals.
However, it is also normal. From this season to now, several not small transactions have taken place. The handicap of the stars is so large, and it has also reached the "cold period" of the market.
When Li Wan returned to Columbus, it happened to be Taylor's maternity check-up day, so he drove Taylor to the hospital for a routine check-up.
With her second pregnancy, Taylor, who has experience, is obviously more comfortable than the first time, although it is still very hard. ——Taylor belongs to the more obvious kind of "pregnancy".
But with experience, she knows what to do to make herself feel better.
"Haney, have you ever thought about donating blood?" Taylor suddenly said something surprising when he was about to arrive.
Although Li Wan had a "big heart", he was still startled by her words: "Huh?"
Tyler laughed at the sight of him.
Well, I was simply amused by Li Wan's appearance, so the topic didn't continue, and it soon turned into a struggle over what to eat for dinner.Li Wan felt a little weird, but thinking about this pregnant woman, it's normal to be a little cranky.
The results of the examination were all normal, and the development of the fetus was very healthy.
From September to now, 9 months have passed, thinking that in another 5 months, he will have a second child, Li Wan's mood is really a bit complicated.
Different from the excitement when he had his first child Xiaolu, Li Wan suddenly had a thought when he had his second child: Should I enter the next stage of my life?
When this thought appeared, Li Wan himself was a little surprised.
But thinking about it carefully, right now I already have 7 championship trophies in this league, and I am working hard to pursue my 8th championship ring. As far as the current situation is concerned, Li Wan is still quite confident. A championship ring.
After all, in the "Christmas Game" game against the Warriors, they won a lot, and they all played garbage time.
In addition to this team, the only thing they need to pay attention to is the Hornets...
Li Wan never lied to himself, and he didn't think it was an arrogant idea. Columbus had a great chance of winning this season.
Of course, he quickly remembered what he said on the "Night of the Championship" last year, "This league should have an era that belongs to Columbus"!
So at least a "three-peat", right?
For Li Wan, who values commitment, he doesn't want to be told that he still owes the championship when he leaves the league. That's too low.
"Haney?"
Seeing that Li Wan was in a daze, Taylor yelled.Let Li Wan come back to his senses.
"Are you thinking about donating money?"
Taylor mentioned this matter again, and Li Wan's reaction was not so big this time.Men, after the first time, they can adapt immediately and develop various tricks.
This applies to any occasion.
He rolled his eyes at Tyler with a disgusted expression.
But when he went back, Li Wan still "dropped in" and bought Taylor a bouquet of crabapple flowers.
Over the years, many of Taylor's preferences have changed, but for flowers, she still likes the crabapple flowers that Li Wan took her to see the most.
On February 2, Columbus started its first regular season game after the All-Star Weekend.
What they faced was Towns, who was selected to the All-Star team for the first time in his career.
After the era of the "civilian five tigers", the Pistons have entered the process of reconstruction, but from 09 to now 18 years, 10 years, they are still struggling in the quagmire of reconstruction.
This is also the embarrassment faced by most small ball markets, especially teams in dilapidated cities.
Being able to get up requires the right time, place and people, but such a timing is more dependent on God's face than "grabbing prizes" in the draft.No, ten years later, Detroit is still hard to say.
The game ended quickly.
After three quarters, the Pistons were already 25 points behind. For a team with only one top card and the top card is still growing, it is too difficult to mediate with Columbus. Basically, as long as they are defended, they will be blocked. Widen the gap.
After a few waves of offense, the Columbus Explorers easily opened up the point difference...
Li Wan only played 25 minutes and 14 seconds in this game, but he still scored 33 points. The number of rebounds and assists was a bit short.In this game, Li Wan only grabbed 8 rebounds and only 5 assists...
But assists and rebounds, Li Wan has long stopped paying attention.
The decline in assists per game has a lot to do with his current team positioning. For Li Wan, who hopes that his teammates can also play with a sense of presence, if the team needs him to give up part of the possession, he will not hesitate to give up. Hesitant to give up, in fact, this sign has been obvious since the "give the ball to Li Wan" tactic last season.
This season, with the growth of Sabonis Jr. and the arrival of Carmelo Anthony, it became more obvious that Li Wan averaged only about 7 assists per game this season.
It is already a new low since his rookie season.
Only the number of rebounds, if it is said that November still has December to finish, Li Wan, who has averaged more than 11 rebounds per game and has some ideas about the "rebound king", saw "Zhuang Shen" averaged 12 rebounds per game. After 13 rebound, he gave up the idea of chasing the first player in NBA history to win the honors of "Scoring Champion", "Assists Champion" and "Rebounding Champion".
His state is too perverted!
As for scoring so many points in such a short period of time, Barkley was keenly aware of the changes in Li Wan's game: "Li made a lot of shots from outside the three-point line in this game!"
Usually, Li Wan takes about 11 three-pointers per game. In this game, Li Wan took a total of 15 three-pointers, and hit 9 of them very explosively...
Kenny Smith did not take it seriously: "If it is effective, Li Wan will indeed continue to use a certain scoring method!"
Barkley nodded after listening to Kenny Smith's explanation. He couldn't refute what Kenny Smith said.
This is also the scariest thing about Li Wan. While possessing explosive physical fitness, solid basic skills, and excellent projection skills, this guy also has an extremely calm brain...
He will adjust his offensive method in time according to the situation!
It is simply a "winning machine" without bugs!
In fact, after analyzing these advantages of Li Wan, it is not surprising that he surpassed Michael Jordan...
okay!
It will still be shocking. If it hadn't happened, no one would believe that there really was a stronger existence than Michael Jordan, especially for these 90s stars.
However, they soon discovered that Li Wan didn't seem to have changed his style of play in this match, but...
In every next game, the shooting outside the three-point line has been strengthened!
"Is this trying to quickly overtake Ray Allen again?"
Some people in the media made such a conjecture.
Otherwise, it's hard to explain why Li Wan suddenly increased his shooting from beyond the three-point line.In the three games after the All-Star break, Li Wan made more than 3 shots from outside the three-point line.
The media asked Li Wan about this situation, and Li Wan said: "There is no special reason, I just feel that I feel good outside the three-point line recently, so I increased the number of shots!"
The interlocutors really had no way to refute it, because after the All-Star Game, even though Li Wan averaged 15 three-pointers per game, his shooting percentage was still above 50%.
In just 3 games, he made 24 three-pointers!
The state can be said to be quite explosive.
"Of course, wanting to become the historical three-point leader faster is indeed one of the reasons why I did this!" Li Wan added suddenly at the end, and then laughed himself.
In fact, his main reason is to quickly complete the last "historical three-point king" mission and open the SSS-level template!
But for this reason, it is impossible for him to say it to the media camera.
2 month 24 day.
Columbus hosts the New Orleans Hornets.
James Harden hasn't returned yet.
Chris Paul and Anthony Davis lead the team against Wan Li and the Columbus Explorers.
Ray Allen once again "supervised the battle" on the spot.
After Li Wan scored 3 three-pointers in 24 games, Li Wan is only 11 away from tying Ray Allen's "historical three-pointer" record. Even according to his current explosive state, he still needs 2 It takes one game to break this record.
But Ray Allen still chose to watch the game live...
Yes, "Gentleman Lei" is here to give Li Wan more strength!
He averages 8 three-pointers per game and has shot in 3 games. It should not be difficult to make 11 three-pointers in a single game, right?
Li Wan looked at the slyness on Lei Allen's face, and couldn't help but think in his heart: how can we say that those who are close to the vermilion are red, and those who are close to the ink are black? Why did this "gentleman Lei" become like this? Brought me away!
Looking back on his career, Li Wan felt that he had met "bad guys".
New Orleans watched the two hug and booed wildly.
What do we think New Orleans is?
Do you really think 11 three-pointers are so easy to get?
Do you know that we are currently No. [-] in the Western Conference?
Even without James Harden!
We are not made of mud either!
They naturally knew what it meant for Ray Allen to come, and they also knew what the hug between Li Wan and Ray Allen meant.
For the New Orleans fans who have risen to become the upstart in the West in the past three years, this is Chi Guoguo's provocative behavior!
Hearing the increasingly fierce boos from the audience, Li Wan couldn't help but say something in his heart:
You said, in this situation, how can we not stuff a big basketball into their mouths, no, into their baskets?
New Orleans needs a "library"!
Especially tonight!
The big screen at the scene gave the starting list of both sides:
"Columbus Explorers: Li Wan at No. [-], Wiggins at No. [-], Anthony at No. [-], Sabonis Jr. at No. [-], Adams at No. [-];
New Orleans Hornets: Chris Paul at No. [-], "Round Face" at No. [-], Ariza at No. [-], Anthony Davis at No. [-], PJ Tucker at No. [-];"
"Round Face Deng" has been put on the bench from the starting list since Chris Paul came.
With a higher degree of freedom, after a period of adaptation, he quickly performed, averaging 15.6 points and 3.2 assists per game. He is Brogdon's biggest competitor for the "Best Sixth Man" award .
He was back in the starting lineup during James Harden's absence with a hamstring injury.
The average data per game has also increased. During this period, he averaged 18.6 points per game!
It is the key for the Hornets to maintain 6 wins and 4 losses in the current 2 games without James Harden.
Another key is naturally Chris Paul.
His cooperation with Anthony Davis has become the sharpest offensive weapon of the Hornets during this period.
During this period of time, Chris Paul regained his status as the "League's No. 17.5 point guard" back then, averaging 10.5 points and [-] assists per game.
However, the most outstanding data of the Hornets during this period is Anthony Davis, who averaged 32.5 points, 13.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2.5 blocks per game, an absolute "inside monster" performance!
Therefore, in the eyes of the outside world, whether Columbus can easily win this game depends on whether it can limit the performance of Anthony Davis.
After all, James Harden is not here. This team lacks a regular season MVP-level guy. This loss cannot be made up for.But in this game, the Hornets can be anxious with Columbus until the last moment, which is already equal to winning...
"beep"
The referee whistled, and Anthony Davis successfully grabbed the initiative for the team.
Chris Paul holds the ball to the frontcourt, and Anthony Davis has already run to the three-point line to pick and roll.
Li Wan was blocked tightly.
Chris Paul successfully got the ball into the three-point line, continued to break through resolutely, and after attracting double-teams, he gave the ball behind his crotch, where the pick-and-roll Anthony Davis followed closely behind him. Behind him, after holding the ball, an outside player made a layup action and put the ball into the basket.
2-0!
Something has happened in the past two days, and the [-]D update will be resumed later, and the final story will be written safely.Thank you brothers for your company along the way.
