Chapter 227 Rekindled War(1/2)
"The buzzer-beater is invalid. If this goal can be scored, it may be the best in All-Star history!"
"38 points, 19 rebounds, 5 blocks and 6 assists, luxurious statistics and won the All-Star MVP. Who can believe that this is his first time participating in the All-Star Game?"
"The "Vote King" won the All-Star MVP. This man's future is unimaginable!"
The news that Lin Ri won the All-Star MVP quickly aroused heated discussion after the game.
As a rookie, he stole the show during this All-Star weekend.
He won the Rookie Game MVP on the first day, the Dunk King on the second day, and the All-Star MVP on the third day... It can be said that Lin Ri, the "voting king", made all his fans satisfied during this All-Star Weekend.
.
It can be considered a good "business".
It is worth mentioning that before Lin Ri, only Chamberlain had achieved the achievement of winning the All-Star MVP in his rookie season. He became the second person in history.
Of course, he is the only player who won the All-Star MVP as the "votes leader" in his rookie season.
Lin Ri also made history.
However, compared with Chamberlain, who also won the regular season MVP, scoring champion, rebounding champion and the best team of the season in his rookie season, Lin Ri's "miracle" is obviously not enough, so he must continue to work hard.
!
Sure enough, there is a reason why Chamberlain is called the "ancient mythical beast"!
"OK, guys, now, there is exciting news. The first signature shoe belonging to the sun will be officially launched from tomorrow. Let us look forward to the first signature shoe belonging to the sun!"
In the evening of the same day, Nike's official announcement also officially announced that starting from tomorrow, this signature shoe belonging to Lin Ri will also be officially released, which made a group of Lin Ri's fans extremely excited.
Lin Ri, who just made a splash during the All-Star Weekend, is undoubtedly the hottest superstar at the moment. Having his first signature shoe for the first time is a sign of a fanatical fandom.
Many fans didn't sleep that night, waiting for 12 o'clock in the morning to immediately purchase on the official website.
Especially the enthusiasm of domestic fans almost made "Brother Fu Bao" extremely happy.
While the entire NBA is looking forward to Lin Ri's pair of sneakers, some teams in the league have also made some transactions. The end of the All-Star Weekend also means that the door to the NBA free trade market has officially closed. This is the last time for all teams.
Reinforcements and opportunities for future trades for the team.
Speaking of which, many classic transactions were born as a result.
For example, this was the case when the Lakers traded for Pau Gasol. In that season, the Lakers finally reached the Finals and have been rising to this day.
However, there are not many big trades this year. All general managers are focusing on this summer, when the three "big fish" from the 2003 class and some All-Star players will end their contracts and become free agents.
.
Many team general managers are counting on that wave to become a classic!
It is also because the league will be "reshuffled" if nothing unexpected happens. Therefore, many experts are now saying that this is the last chance for the Celtics, Lakers and many teams to compete for the championship.
, if they fail this time, they will also enter a reshuffle due to the impact of other stronger teams!
As soon as the All-Star Weekend ended, the Lakers and Celtics immediately entered the team's joint training. It can be seen that they did feel a sense of urgency!
The Suns didn't do much after the All-Star Weekend. As far as the first half of the schedule is concerned, their performance can be considered outstanding compared to other teams in the league. Therefore, they don't need too many changes.
Just adjust the current status and wait for the regular season to start again.
Each team had a day to prepare. After one day, the NBA regular season officially started again.
The All-Star Weekend is a turning point in the regular season. Before the All-Star Weekend, each team tries its best to consolidate its ranking, whether it is good or bad results.
After the All-Star Weekend, there will be a fight, but this fight also depends on the situation.
For example, between the last place and the second last place, it is a comparison of who can lose more in the next schedule.
The teams currently ranked ninth and tenth in the Eastern and Western Conferences have to make the final sprint to reach the playoffs.
Including, the teams currently ranked fifth and sixth will also work hard for the home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs.
On the contrary, those teams that currently have certain advantages and cannot reach new heights for the time being, and do not have to worry about the teams behind them catching up, will not appear to be so motivated after reaching this stage of the regular season.
, they will also rotate the team.
Of course, there are some teams, such as the Spurs, whose goal from the beginning of the regular season is to "have everyone with sufficient physical fitness to enter the playoffs"!
This cannot be discussed together.
However, what is even more irritating is that they clearly do not compete for rankings, but they have reached the playoffs for 13 consecutive years so far. This is really... where can I explain it!
Well, for Suns fans, they don't need to envy the Spurs, because in the first game after the regular season war resumed, Gentry arranged for Lin to rest.
The home fans watched Lin Ri being rested. Although they were a little regretful, they also knew that Lin Ri did have a little too much fun during the All-Star Weekend and did not get much physical rest. In order to ensure that he can meet the game with sufficient physical fitness.
At the end of the season, the last wave of ranking consolidation and the playoffs, it is still necessary to give him a rest at this time.
However, despite the absence of Lin Ri, the Suns still won the final victory in the first game after the All-Star Weekend. They easily defeated the Pistons 108-98.
The once powerful team in the Eastern Conference has completely become a weak team this season, completely unable to stop the Suns' offensive.
Fortunately, the Pistons originally went for the lottery picks, so being defeated by the Suns did not make them feel depressed at all, but made them a little happy.
Although the atmosphere of bad behavior in the league this year is not as strong as last year.
Because there is no phenomenal newcomer like Lin Ri in the NCAA.
But the quality of this year's draft is also very high. Let's not talk about others. Let's just say that among the "Big Three" of the Sun Devils, which one is not a pillar of the future? The Nets failed this year because they went for John Wall.
Yeah, I heard that if they can't get John Wall, they will have to completely rebuild. From this aspect, it can actually be seen that the team's bad behavior this year is also very powerful.
At this time, losing one more game is the best thing for these bad teams!
"We will enter a period of rest. We need some rest so that everyone on the team can pass this fatigue period safely. We still have the playoffs to play, which is a must for us.
matter!"
After the Suns played this game, they also had a certain understanding of the overall state of the weak team after the All-Star Game. For this reason, Gentry was ready to start letting all the main players of the Suns team play.
Take some rest.
The Suns' schedule for the next week or so is quite easy. They are basically a weak team, but after this week, they will meet the Lakers again. The Lakers are currently ranked second in the Western Conference. There is no doubt that they
, they will be the Suns' biggest opponent in the playoffs. This game is the last regular season match between the Suns and the Lakers. If they can win the final victory in this game, there is no doubt that this will allow them
When meeting the Lakers in the playoffs, I will be more confident.
After all, the opponent is the defending champion, and the Suns can actually be regarded as "newcomers" in the playoffs, because Lin Ri is a rookie and he has not played in the playoffs yet. Therefore, if he can have a chance to gain a psychological advantage at this time, then
You must grasp it!
This game against the Lakers is also regarded by Gentry as the most important game in recent games.
They need to take a good rest for this game.
Therefore, Lin Ri rested for another game, which was equivalent to a total of four days of rest.
As a 20-year-old young man, with 4 days of rest, I can definitely recover easily no matter how tired I was before.
No, in the third game after the All-Star Weekend, he returned to the field and directly contributed 30 plus 18!
He used this data to tell everyone that he was back with full health!
“Now it’s interesting!”
"Very good, let's see who is the strongest No. 4 in the 2009 class!"
"This should be regarded as a continuation of last year's NCAA Top 32!"
The Suns' next game is against the Clippers.
This is their last meeting with the latter this season.
It is worth mentioning that during the period when the Suns were making adjustments, the Clippers made some big news: Blake Griffin, the second pick in the first round of 2009 and the almost forgotten second overall pick, was
The first game after the All-Star weekend ushered in his comeback debut.
In this game, he scored 25 points and 15 rebounds!
Although the Clippers lost in the end, Griffin proved with his performance that it was no problem for the Clippers to select him with the second overall pick!
At the same time, he showed his strong adaptability to the NBA in the first game of his career, which makes people unconsciously think of Lin Ri who shocked everyone in the first game at the beginning of this season.
!
Now, Griffin is just like Lin Ri, who produced super insider-like statistics in the first game!
"It's dawn for the Los Angeles Clippers! Blake Griffin crushed doubts in his first game!"
"Another super insider, Blake Griffin proved his ability in one game!"
"2009 is a super year? Another guy who posted luxurious statistics in the first game of his rookie season appears!"
After this game, Blake Griffin also relied on his performance in this game to draw everyone's attention to his existence. After the game, reports about him were all over the sky!
And this isn't just a flash-in-the-pan performance.
In the Clippers' next game, he scored 24 points and 13 rebounds.
In this game, he even performed a violent dunk over Perkins!
Show off his violent style of play to its fullest!
