NBA: About Me Being Reincarnated As Yasuo, the Wind Walker

Barkley Show.

Kenny Smith said with anticipation: "The playoffs have finally begun. Zhang Jun has become the youngest regular season MVP in NBA history. He also won the league scoring title this season."

"I can't remember who was the last player to win both the league scoring title and the regular season MVP."

Kenny Smith's words are not without reason, because most players who want to win the scoring title need very high shooting rights and tactical support, which will weaken the role of other players in the team.

In short, too many personal shooting rights will not bring positive effects to the team.

So most players will affect their teammates' performance and the team's record to a certain extent when they win the scoring title, and the regular season MVP is an award that attaches great importance to the team's record, so in most cases it is difficult for the league scoring title and the regular season MVP to be given to one player.

Barkley immediately said: "In the entire NBA history, there are only 6 players who have won both the league scoring title and the regular season MVP award in the same season."

"They are Chamberlain, who won the VP and scoring title in 1960, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who won the scoring title and MVP in 1971, Michael Jordan, who won the league scoring title and MVP awards in a single season five times in his career, Shaquille O'Neal, who won the MVP and scoring title in 2000, and Allen Iverson, who won the MVP and scoring title in 2001."

"The last sixth one is Zhang Jun, who won the league scoring title and regular season MVP this season."

Barkley no longer knows what words to use to describe this sophomore. He won the league scoring title in his first year as a rookie, and made all the teams in the league unable to cope with his breakthrough and mid-range shots.

In the second year of his career, he solved the three-point shooting that has been criticized by fans and commentators, and not only solved it, but also directly developed a more threatening super-long three-pointer.

In this way, there is no offensive blind spot for Zhang Jun on the entire court, and he can attack you at any position.

More importantly, although Zhang Jun averaged 35 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists per game this season, 5 points ahead of Wade, who averaged 30 points per game, he only averaged 21 shots per game, ranking 11th in the league, and his ball usage rate was only 28%, ranking 10th in the league.

Ball usage rate (USG) is a very complicated calculation formula. It would be troublesome to look at it alone, but it is easy to understand if you know its definition and what it is mainly for.

"The ball possession rate is defined as the ratio of a player's ball possession to the team's total ball possession when he is on the court. The higher this value means that the player occupies a higher proportion of the team's total ball possession, and it can also be considered that he is more important to the team."

"After all, the number of ball possessions that two teams can handle in a game is basically so much. Who occupies more and who occupies less will naturally greatly affect the player's data."

"Even if Zhang Jun used the least number of shots and the least ball possession, he still got the best data and the best team performance."

"This also shows that he is a very efficient player, especially on the offensive end."

"This season, Zhang Jun deserves to be the league's scoring champion. No player will have any objections. He led the Trail Blazers to the first record in the league and won the regular season MVP, which is understandable."

Barkley said very affirmatively.

Last season, including him, everyone questioned whether Zhang Jun's scoring champion was brushed out by the Trail Blazers' unlimited firing rights. He himself did not have such a strong scoring ability.

But after the playoffs, the Trail Blazers lost to the Lakers, but Zhang Jun's personal offensive firepower was not inferior to McGrady and Kobe at all. At that time, few people questioned Zhang Jun's scoring ability.

As for this season, Zhang Jun's offense has frightened the entire league, and any more doubters will probably become a joke.

"I'm looking forward to how far the Trail Blazers can go this season." Kenny Smith opened the playoff series just released by the league office and said: "In the Western Conference playoffs, the Trail Blazers, who have the best record in the league, will play the first round of the series with the Jazz." "But people think that the Jazz are ranked eighth in the West and underestimate them. In fact, the Jazz's record this season is as high as 48 wins, which is definitely the top four in the East." "This season, the Jazz has also been plagued by injuries to core players. Boozer has been sidelined for 45 games due to injury, and the team's boss Deron Williams has also been sidelined for 14 games due to injury. The number of games that both of them have been sidelined due to injury has reached 8 games." "But despite such a difficult injury situation, the Jazz still caught the last train of the crazy West, and ushered in the return of all players in the last 8 games, and won 8 consecutive games!" "So this will be a very difficult playoff round. The Jazz will definitely cause a lot of trouble for the Trail Blazers. It's not so easy for them to win the game." Portland, Moda Center. The playoffs are about to begin. Because Zhang Jun won both the league's scoring title and regular season MVP this season, the Trail Blazers welcomed more reporters visiting during the playoffs this year.

During the pre-match interview, Deron Williams watched as each of these reporters went to interview Zhang Jun, only to find that Zhang Jun had already started training in advance and refused to be interviewed. He could only come to interview his own reporters.

He said angrily: "I, Deron Williams, am the best defender in the Western Conference!"

Player tunnel.

The lights in the Moda Center were all dark, with only a few spotlights exploring the entire arena.

Luo Yin was the first to walk out of the tunnel amid shouts from the sky. He raised his head and looked at the sky above the Trail Blazers' home arena. He was still as enthusiastic and sincere as ever. Luo Yin kissed his palm and pointed to the Moda Center. .

Followed by Steve Blake, Sergio Rodriguez, Steve Francis, Rudy Fernandez, Nicolas Batum, James Jones, LaMarcus Aldridge, Qian Ning Fletcher, Josh McRoberts, Joel Przybilla, Reeve LaFrentz and others appeared one after another.

Finally, the spotlights waited patiently in the tunnel, and the Portland fans were already screaming and shouting Zhang Jun's name.

"MVP!"

"MVP!!"

"MVP!!!"

The DJ on the scene followed the shouts of the fans and shouted excitedly: "The last one is from Los Angeles, California, the single-season scoring champion in the history of UCLA, the NBA's 2007-08 Rookie of the Year, All-Star MVP, and the youngest league scoring champion. , the youngest regular season MVP, No. 4, 202cm tall small forward in California!”

Zhang Jun was still sitting on his familiar bench, and did not come out of the tunnel like other players. He jumped up and threw the basketball in his hand into the audience, and then suddenly accelerated towards his teammates.

All the Trail Blazers players stretched out their hands, and Zhang Jun and his teammates high-fived them one by one until Luo Yin was at the end of the team.

Zhang Jun raised his right hand high, Luo Yin raised his right hand high, and the two finally came up with a unique thunder plow and hot knife.

Red flames erupted all around the scene at the same time.

Zhang Jun and Luo Yin hugged and said.

"Brother, are you ready?"

"Go all out!"

"The Blazers!"

"Tear apart!"

As the final shouts of tearing from the Trail Blazers resounded throughout the Moda Center arena, the surrounding lights also lit up.

Kenny Smith shouted: "The first round of the NBA 2008-09 playoffs has officially begun!"

“Tonight’s the Portland Trail Blazers vs. Utah Jazz game!”

"The youth Trail Blazers will face the Utah duo!"

The starting lineups of the two teams were shown on the big screen.

The Trail Blazers' starting lineup: point guard Steve Blake, shooting guard Brandon Luo Yin, small forward Zhang Jun, power forward LaMarcus Aldridge and center Joel Przybilla.

Jazz starting lineup: point guard Deron Williams, shooting guard Ronnie Brewer, small forward Paul Millsap, power forward Carlos Boozer and center Mehmit Okur.

The referee blows the whistle and the game begins.

Jump ball at midfield.

Joel Przbilla jumped for the Blazers' first possession.

The first goal of the playoffs has officially begun.

Steve Blake advanced with the ball, and Deron Williams exerted a lot of physical confrontation as soon as he came up.

Steve Blake frowned and shouted when he was pushed, and even went to signal the referee that this was already considered a foul.

Zhang Jun quickly stepped back to catch the ball. Fortunately, he came to the ball in time, otherwise Deron Williams would have almost intercepted it.

"Deron Williams is an unconventional point guard. He is different from most point guards who pursue speed and flexibility. In college, Deron Williams was not a point guard known for his speed, nor did he With such talent, he simply changed his mind and became a strength and confrontation point guard."

In Barkley's view, Deron Williams may be considered the strongest point guard in the league, and even most shooting guards may not be able to gain any advantage against him.

After receiving the ball, Zhang Jun quickly passed the ball to Luo Yin on the weak side. He was guarded by Jazz shooting guard Ronnie Brewer.

"Ronnie Brewer is a standard swingman with a height of 201cm and an excellent wingspan of 211cm. In the Jazz, Ronnie Brewer has always played the role of defending the opponent's offensive arrow."

"Tonight the Jazz asked him to guard Luo Yin, also to suppress the opponent in terms of size and strength."

"As we all know, Rose is the player who is best at using confrontation to attack in isolation, and Ronnie Brewer can greatly restrict him."

On the court, Luo Yin tried a breakthrough, but in the first step of dribbling, he encountered a confrontation from Ronnie Brewer. The latter met Luo Yin's breakthrough with his chest very vigorously, preventing his breakthrough. The offense also slowed him down.

"The fight was strong tonight guys!"

Luo Yin took a step back to pick up the ball and look for opportunities again, while shouting to remind his teammates.

Aldridge put up the pick-and-roll and said: "After all, this is the first game of the playoffs this season. These referees want us to play more intensely on the court. They know very well that fans like to watch the collision of muscles."

Luo Yin used the pick-and-roll to get rid of Ronnie Brewer's defense, and Carlos Boozer stepped up to replace the defense.

Carlos Boozer is also a very flexible power forward, with excellent lateral movement. Except for his physical talent, which cannot reach the sky and the ground, everything else about him is top-notch at the power forward position.

Uh-huh!

Luo Yin faked a sudden jump shot, but Carlos Boozer, who was afraid of being penetrated by a smaller player, did not react at all. The defense, which was already taking a step open, could only make a symbolic save at this time, but in reality, Even Luo Yin's eyes were not dazzled.

"Ronnie Brewer is not afraid of your physical confrontation. You have to be careful. It is best to use speed to beat him, otherwise you can use pick and roll to get rid of him directly."

Zhang Jun stretched out his hand and high-fived Luo Yin who was retreating.

Luo Yin nodded. The whole team was already accustomed to listening to Zhang Jun's court analysis. After all, this guy's basketball IQ had conquered the whole team.

"The Portland Trail Blazers score their first playoff goal of the year, courtesy of Braden Loyin."

"The Trail Blazers' offense is as good as ever. The Jazz don't seem to have many ways to limit the league's No. 1 offensive team. They'd better think about how to solve their own offense."

Deron Williams held the ball and advanced. His advancement speed was not fast, even a bit like an old man crossing the road. The time had reached 19 seconds before he slowly dribbled the ball over.

After reaching the top of the arc, Deron Williams began to lower his center of gravity and dribble. Carlos Boozer raised the pick-and-roll. Deron Williams did not ask for it and just blasted the ball in the opposite direction of the pick-and-roll to break through.

Steve Blake saw clearly that Deron Williams' breakthrough was not fast, and he did not have many skills such as changing direction. Only after he was used to seeing such shocking breakthroughs by his teammate Zhang Jun could he watch Deron Williams. Mums's, it's simply unsightly.

"ah!"

Steve Blake screamed as Deron Williams hit him in the side, hard.

Steve Blake felt like a tank was rolling towards him, pushing him into the paint area.

Seeing Aldridge's move to help defend, Deron Williams made a small throw in advance.

Uh-huh!

The basketball hits the basket steadily.

Steve Blake then had the opportunity to rub his chest, his face full of pain.

I had only heard that any player who played a series against James would have to go to the hospital after the series. At that time, Steve Blake still laughed at those players who played the small forward position. They were born at the wrong time. Unfortunately, I met the evil star LeBron James.

As a result, I never thought that retribution would come to me now. It is no exaggeration to say that Deron Williams is the LeBron James of a point guard.

This power and impact is so powerful that it makes people scared.

"how are you feeling?"

Zhang Jun saw that Steve Blake was beaten badly and asked.

Steve Blake shook his head and said: "This guy will probably come to fight me next round. I can't guard him at all."

Zhang Jun nodded solemnly. He was not afraid of the impact and confrontation of Deron Williams, but of course it was impossible for him to switch defenses with Steve Blake. In that case, the players on the small forward and the inside There will be no one to complete team tasks such as assisting defense.

But Zhang Jun still patted Steve Blake on the shoulder, gave him a reassuring look and said: "In the next round, as long as Deron Williams dares to rush in, I will definitely come to help defend."
