The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

The list of the NBA's best defensive team for the 13-14 season is as follows.

Best Defensive First Team: Guard Jeremy Lin, Chris Paul, forward Leonard, Serge Ibaka, center Dunn.

Best Defensive Second Team: guard Mike Conley, Klay Thompson, forward Draymond Green, Tim Duncan, center Rudy Gobert.

If it is expected that Thompson and Leonard were selected to the best defensive team, and Green's selection to the best defensive team can also be regarded as reasonable, then Rudy Gobert's selection to the best defensive second team surprised many people.

Although there are no strong enough centers in today's league, there are many defensive blue-collar centers with good strength.

Aside from Dunn, who used the Mutombo growth template card for the Thunder, there are still Howard, Noah, Jordan Jr., Whiteside and other centers in the league with good defensive ability and frame protection.

Compared with the data, Howard averaged 18 points, 12 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game this season.

Joakim Noah averaged 12.6 points, 11.3 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.5 blocks per game.

As for the other two veterans of the Wizards, Jordan averaged 14 points, 13.6 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game, and Whiteside averaged 17 points, 14.3 rebounds and 3.7 blocks per game.

Without exception, all of them can average a double-double per game.

And Gobert, who won the honor of the best defensive second team better than them, played only 28 minutes in the regular season this season, contributing an average of 8.3 points, 9.2 rebounds and 2.3 blocks.

This data is already very good for a first-year rookie, but it is still worse than Howard and others.

However, the spot for the best defensive second team center was still given to Gobert, because the defensive effect brought by Gobert cannot be reflected in pure statistics.

Those who voted for the best team and the best defensive team list are all reporters from authoritative media in the United States. They have been engaged in sports and basketball reporting for many years. Naturally, they are not people who do not understand football. They can easily find out through simple comparison. Gobert's difference.

Although the Wizards last season had a strong defense, once the opponent breaks through the iron wall of the outside line and rushes into the inside line, the scoring efficiency will increase linearly. Although Whiteside averaged nearly 3 blocks per game last season Covered in the account, but the work of assisting defense and supplementing defense in the interior is not particularly good.

In contrast, the newcomer Gobert this season has done very well. Although he does not have the gorgeous blocking data of Whiteside, he is often crowded by other insiders due to lack of strength, but the real data reflects , Gobert's defensive success rate at the basket is second in the league, second only to Dunn of the Thunder, even Howard, Jordan Jr., Joakim Noah and other defensive champions are not as good.

Defense is not just about blocking the opponent's shot, as long as it prevents the opponent from making the shot, it is a successful defense.

Gobert obviously did this very well, and he was also seen by many caring people, so he became the center of the best defensive second team, and this honor also proves his contribution to the Wizards' record-breaking 73 wins .

Although he has made outstanding contributions to the team's defense, based on Gobert's data, it is impossible to be selected as the Rookie of the Year, but it is more than enough to be selected for the All-Rookie Team.

The five players of the All-Rookie Team are Victor Oladipo, Trey Burke, and Tim. Hardaway II, Michael Carter Williams and Rudy Gobert.

Facts have proved once again that the rookies in 2013 are really low-level. None of the top five top picks before the draft was selected for the best rookie team. Bennett even succeeded in replacing Kwame Brown as the No. 1 pick in NBA history. Title, he averaged 12.8 minutes per game in the regular season, and only scored 4.2 points and 3 rebounds, which is completely the standard of a water dispenser administrator, even more soy sauce than soy sauce.

The Rookie of the Year award was Michael Carter Williams, who averaged 16.7 points, 6.2 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game.

This is basically a big one among the dwarfs. When Gobert has not yet fully grown into the best defensive player, and Oladipo has not yet become a top scorer, the league can only choose one stat that looks more beautiful. rookie.

...

In people's discussions about the season lineup, the second round of games has ended one after another.

As expected in the Eastern Conference, the Cavaliers defeated the Nets 4:2 to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals. James will also compete with Wang Xiao's Wizards on the stage of the Eastern Conference Finals for the fourth consecutive year.

However, the situation in the West has undergone an amazing reversal. The Trail Blazers, who had already held the match point 3:1, accidentally injured Durant in the fifth game after returning home, losing Regardless of the game, Durant's injury will take at least three months to recover after the game, which means that he will miss all the next playoff games this season.

Without Durant, the Blazers also lost the most stable scoring points. Aldridge alone could not support him, and he was pulled three times in a row and lost the game 3:4.

Wang Xiao is still quite impressed with this Grizzlies team.

Point guard Mike Conley, shooting guard Tony Allen, small forward Courtney Lee, power forward Zach Randolph, center Marc Gasol.

The unremarkable starting lineup contains impressive strength. If the Blazers have Durant in the lineup, the Grizzlies are naturally not opponents, but without Durant, Aldridge alone is naturally not an opponent.

The Blazers were upset and eliminated in the second round, and the series between the Spurs and the Clippers also went to 7 games.

Relying on the stable performance of GDP and the newly joined Chris Bosh, the Spurs defeated the Clippers in the fourth game with difficulty, and Paul's dream of the Western Conference Finals was once again shattered.

In this way, the East and West finals will be the Wizards against the Cavaliers, and the Spurs against the Grizzlies. This is the first time that the East and West finals have changed in two years.

In the past two years, the East and West have been contests between the Wizards and the Heat, and the Trail Blazers and the Spurs. The audience is a little tired of watching, and this year is finally a little different.

Whether the Wizards without George can continue to beat the upgraded teammate James, and whether the Spurs are the best time to rush to the championship without the obstacle of the Trail Blazers, these are the suspense that the audience is looking forward to seeing.

...

Before the start of the Eastern Conference finals, Wang Xiao seemed to have received good news.

He received a call from Dayao.

"Wang Xiao, I have good news for you. You may soon receive an official invitation letter from the Basketball Association!"

On the phone, Dayao's tone carried a hint of excitement.

Wang Xiao was a little confused.

"Basketball Association, invitation letter? What do you mean?"
