I’m Really Playing Basketball

At the end of the regular season, the Spurs, the league's No. 1 team, crushed the rest of the league's teams in the regular season.

Although the Spurs' record is crushing the entire league, the statistics of this team's players are not so outstanding.

The head player of the Spurs, this year's MVP favorite Ron Howard, actually only averaged 22.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 7.5 assists and 2.7 steals in the regular season this season.

Of course, although Luo Ge's basic data is relatively average, considering his number of shots, more than 50% field goal percentage, and more than 40% three-point shooting rate, Luo Ge's data is actually quite amazing.

In addition to Luo Ge, the other leading player of the Spurs, Duncan's statistics this season are averaging 15 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks per game, which seems to be average.

However, considering that he played 29 minutes in each game, and considering that he is now 38 years old, Duncan's data is also quite astonishing.

Then, except for these two people who averaged 15 points per game this season, the remaining players on the Spurs did not even have a player who averaged 15 points per game.

After the two, the Spurs' top scorers are Leonard with 12.8 points per game and Parker with 12.5 points per game.

It is worth mentioning that the shooting percentages of the two are the same as Luo Ge and Duncan, both exceeding 50%.

Especially Leonard, the Spurs forward, has improved again this season. Not only has his shooting percentage exceeded 53%, but he also averages 2.5 steals per game, behind Ron Howard, and is tied with Paul for second in the league. king.

On both offense and defense, Leonard has made great progress this season, which is definitely not reflected in his data.

Considering that the Spurs have many players who can play, Leonard's data is indeed difficult to reflect his strength.

And this is Leonard's own regret and the Spurs' luck.

After all, on this team, players who averaged double figures in points per game this season include Wheat, Al Jefferson, and Ginobili.

On one team, seven players scored in double digits, which is quite terrifying even in NBA history.

What's even more frightening is that among these seven people, no one's shooting percentage is lower than 45%.

The most iron-clad Maizi has a 46% shooting rate this season.

It can be said that Popovich has created a team in his mind that may be perfect in the Spurs. It can attack, defend and be a team, and cannot find any shortcomings.

As the biggest winner of this season's regular season, the Spurs can't find any data king except Luo Ge's steal leader. They even have only two players averaging more than 15 points per game. This is indeed a very interesting thing.

Back to the Warriors, Chen Xiao's data this season is 28 points, 8.5 rebounds, 14.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.5 blocks per game. This data looks very impressive at first glance, but it is actually very powerful, but it is not. There is no doubt that compared with Chen Xiao's previous two triple-double seasons where he averaged 30+ per game, Chen Xiao's data this season has indeed dropped significantly.

The young players of the Warriors have made great progress this season, and Chen Xiao has taken the initiative to give them some shooting rights. At the same time, this season, Chen Xiao has been blocked more often by Big Eyebrow and Lopez.

As a small forward, he has the highest number of rebounds on the team every season, which will put pressure on the team's young insiders.

Nongmei's rebounds this season reached a career high of 10 thanks to Chen Xiao's humility.

This season, Big Eyebrow's average data per game is 18 points, 10 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 2.8 blocks per game. The data is quite good, especially scoring. He only took 13.5 shots per game to average 18 points. The shooting rate is as high as 53%, he can attack and defend, that's what he is talking about.

He and Ibaka, who averaged 2.5 blocks per game on the bench this season, Lopez, who averaged 2.5 blocks per game as a starter, and Chen Xiao, who averaged 1.5 blocks per game, formed the Golden State Warriors' no-fly zone.

In addition, Klay's scoring average this season has also set a new career high. He averaged 19 points per game. He is the second-highest scoring player on the Warriors. He averaged three-pointers per game. 3, and the hit rate is as high as 42%.

Clay is now the strongest three-point shooter in the league besides Chen Xiao, Curry, and Ray Allen.

As for Bill, his scoring and shooting percentage have also increased slightly this season, especially his three-point shooting percentage, which has also stepped above the 40% line this season.

Compared with these young players, Lopez, who is considered a "veteran" by the Warriors, seems to have declined to a certain extent in his statistics this season except for blocks.

This is not because Lopez has declined, but that he is more focused on other aspects.

Lopez is now considered the winner of life in the NBA.

Why do you say this? Because Lopez's current contract is a maximum salary. With Chen Xiao in the Bobcats, he won the championship easily and created a dynasty. Now he has followed Chen Xiao to the Warriors and has won the championship for two consecutive seasons. To the All-Star starting position.

There are championships, dynasties, maximum salaries, and All-Star starters. As a player, what else do you pursue in your career?

Lopez is a very smart man. He knows that although he is still young, only 26 years old, he has already become famous. Now, he only needs to maintain his reputation decently and let the fans respect Robert Horry and the others. It's good for role players to respect themselves like that.

He positioned himself as a role player next to Chen Xiao. He never thought about becoming a superstar. His ambition was to be the best role player in NBA history.

Wanting to be the best role player he can be, one that the fans love, the experts love, the head coach loves, the team loves, and his teammates love him, and he's now more than happy to do some of the dirty work.

He spares no effort in setting up pick-and-rolls for his teammates, and he also works extra hard when defending the basket.

When it comes to grabbing rebounds for teammates, he doesn't even look at the position of the rebound after blocking, just letting his teammates pick it up.

This allows him, a big center, to average only 6 rebounds per game this season, which is the lowest among all centers in the NBA who average more than 30 minutes per game.

At the same time, this season he averaged only 10 shots per game, averaging 13 points, 6 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game, with a shooting percentage of 54%.

Except for the skyrocketing hit rate and blocks, other statistics are declining.

However, no one feels that Lopez has passed his peak. Whether it is fans, experts or coaching teammates, their love for him is growing day by day.

This can be seen from the fact that Lopez took the lead in the All-Star first ticket this season and won the Western Conference All-Star starting center.

It can be seen from the data of these main players of the Warriors this season that they have made great progress.

In addition to these main players, the team's rotation players, Dragic and Ibaka have definitely improved a lot.

Dragic's average field goal percentage this season can reach 50-40. You know, he is a point guard, and he is a white point guard. This season, he can average 2 three-pointers per game and maintain 40. % or above of three-point shooting.

This season Dragic only averaged less than 8 shots per game, averaging 10 points per game, and his true shooting percentage reached an astonishing 61%. You know, he is a white point guard!

In fact, historically, Dragic has produced the best statistics of his career this season, averaging 20 points per game and shooting 50-40 from the field. Nash Jr. is definitely well-deserved.

Compared with Dragic, Ibaka has also made great progress this season. Ibaka's biggest improvement this season is that he can stably hit three-pointers!

Although most of them are open and most of the shots are slow, Ibaka's three-point shooting rate this season did reach 39%!

An inside player, he has a 39% three-point shooting rate. Coupled with his already accurate mid-range shooting, his offensive efficiency is also quite explosive this season. He averages 8 shots per game and can score 10 points 6. Rebounds and 2.5 blocks.

The Warriors don't have such a strong sixth man this season, but the rotation combination of Dragic and Ibaka performed amazingly on the offensive end.

This is also the reason why the Warriors can become the league's highest scoring team this season.

After talking about these important players of the team, the team's two rookies this year, Gobert has three excellent inside competitions in front of him, Lopez and Ibaka. This season, he has not played much playing time with the Warriors, averaging only 7 minutes of playing time.

Although there was not much time, Gobert's performance was still commendable.

His rim protection at the basket is very good. With such little playing time per game, he averages close to 0.8 blocks per game.

Basically, as long as he plays, he will get a block.

As a second-round pick, Ding Yanyuhang, as Chen Xiao's fellow countryman and a disciple of the national team, Ding Yanyuhang has a very special status in the team.

However, although Ding Yanyuhang has a special status in the team, Chen Xiao did not give Ding Ding any special privileges in terms of playing time.

He has played less minutes on the court than Gobert this season.

This season with the Warriors, Chen Xiao is mainly practicing Ding Ding's confrontation and ball control.

His most outstanding talent is his height and certain athletic ability. He can be a tall shooting guard at 2.04 meters.

Such a tall shooting guard has the unique ability to make pull-up jump shots. This is his advantage, and Chen Xiao is amplifying his advantage.

Once he improves his ball handling and confrontation, his ability to make pull-up jump shots after holding the ball and taking advantage of the pick-and-roll will become his trump card.

When physical confrontation and ball control have not yet been fully developed, allowing Ding Yanyuhang to go to the court too early to fight against Hei Hardou will increase his risk of injury.

In terms of playing style, Chen Xiao hopes that Ding Ding can learn from Livingston on the same team.

Livingston's current style of play is also a pull-up jump shot after holding the ball.

Moreover, Livingston's move can be said to have achieved strength.

Livingston's confrontation ability is also average. After Livingston's short legs, his athletic ability is even worse than Tintin.

As long as Ding Ding is smart enough and works hard enough, with the help of Chen Xiao and Livingston, he can reach Livingston's current level.

As a second-round pick, he was able to be trained by Chen Xiao, Livingston and the Warriors in the NBA. This is why Ding Ding came from the Chen Xiao Basketball School.

Such a good opportunity, other second-round picks in the league would not even dare to think about it.

The eldest nephew who is now in the Thunder also dare not think about Ding Ding's treatment in the Warriors.

To be honest, Ding Ding himself is very grateful and knows that if he fails to progress and grow under such opportunities, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

He is also a hardworking and smart player.

So the progress in the Warriors this season is also huge.

Don't look at his poor numbers all season long.

In fact, he came off the bench and played 20 minutes in the Warriors' last game against the Timberwolves. He made 6 of 9 shots and scored a career-high 14 points.

Ding Ding's current stability will definitely make it impossible to score in double figures every game, but there is no doubt that he is now capable of scoring 10 points against a strong team like the Timberwolves.

This is a huge improvement. In fact, according to the system display, Tintin's ability value is now C+.

Considering his defense and physical fitness, his offense may be able to reach B-, which is already a pretty good level.

Now that he is placed in the CBA and Chen Xiao Basketball School, maybe he can be killed indiscriminately.

Maybe, now 21 years old, he and 19-year-old Jokic can lead Chen Xiao Basketball School to win the CBA championship.

After talking about the Warriors, let’s talk about other players in the league. The other player worth talking about in this NBA regular season is Westbrook of the Knicks.

This season the league's scoring champion is won by Westbrook of the Knicks. This season Westbrook averaged a triple-double of 31.5 points, 10.5 rebounds and 11 assists per game.

He also became the third player after Big O and Chen Xiao to achieve 30+ triple-doubles.

At the same time, he is also the only player who has not led his team to the playoffs. He averages a triple-double per game and leads the scoring team, but he actually leads the team with only 30 wins and 52 losses, and there is superstar Howard next to him.

This makes Westbrook controversial in the NBA.

However, as long as Knicks fans like it, Howard also dares to be angry but dare not speak out.

Really, in today's New York, if he dares to compete with the three-point champion and scoring champion, he will definitely be the one to leave.

The resourceful Howard gave in decisively and couldn't afford to offend him. He could only hide and act honestly as a tool for Westbrook to get rebounds and pick-and-roll assists.

As for the post-up tactic like Yao Ming's that he is obsessed with, hehe, get out of the way. With this style of play, even if he hits the ball, he won't get an assist.

By the way, in order to provide Westbrook with assists, Howard even developed a three-pointer this season...

Even Howard himself didn't know that he still had this ability.

All I can say is that people are forced out.

Howard didn't even understand free throws, but he actually figured out three-pointers in one season with Westbrook.

This really made Howard himself dumbfounded.

It's too awful.

Since leaving the Spurs, his life has indeed been miserable.

Comparing the Spurs' killing spree in the NBA, Howard always sighs and wants to cry.

If he is still with the Spurs now, maybe he can compete with Luo Ge for MVP and FMVP...

Time is also destiny.
