In the history of the NBA, it is not uncommon for a player to change the rules.

George McCann expanded the NBA's "three-second zone" and introduced the "ball interference" rule;

Chamberlain expanded the NBA's "three-second zone" again, and at the same time introduced the rule that "the free throw line must be outside the free throw line after taking off and landing";

Mark Jackson introduced the "5-second post-up" rule in the NBA;

O'Neal's strong dominance in the interior, in order to restrict him, the league introduced a three-second violation rule in the penalty area;

But basically, the reason for these regulations is that there are some bugs in the abilities of these players, which makes them too invincible. In order to weaken him, the league made changes to the rules.

LeBron James...is clearly the beneficiary of the rule changes this time.

And this happened more than once.

Later, in a regular season game on March 27, 2014, James forced a breakthrough to the basket and was blocked by Hibbert of the Pacers. When he landed, James hit his opponent's chin.

At that time, LeBron was called for a foul, but four days later the NBA changed the rules: players cannot turn to either side or turn to block when vertically jumping to defend.

According to the new rules, the person who committed the foul in this confrontation became Hibbert...

He is the only person in the history of the NBA who changed the rules twice in a row and became the beneficiary of the rules.

Many older generations say that LeBron would be successful in their time, but not as successful as he is now. This is the reason why. His skills are so rough that the league can only introduce some rules to help him rationalize it.

Because Li Wan knew this would happen, he was not very surprised.

He can understand what the league is doing.

This alliance is essentially a business, and the purpose of business is to make money!

Number 24 needs to be followed by number 23 to become the card of the alliance.

The script of No. 23 vs. No. 24 is also really attractive!

Is there any more classic legacy of completing the "replacement of old and new" in the finals?

This script is sure to fetch a good price, especially with the collective bargaining agreement looming.

The summer of 2011 will be the day when the 10-year labor agreement expires. The league has developed rapidly in the past ten years. Both the owners and the players feel that they are making less money, and conflicts are about to break out.

But this is not what David Stern needs to care about. What he needs to ensure is that the league continues to be exciting in the last three seasons...

This is the only thing he needs to care about as president.

LeBron is expected to become the next "Michael Jordan" and dominate the next decade.

His innate talent illustrates this point all the time...

As long as he succeeds, then ten years later, all fans will deliberately avoid talking about this and only talk about the greatness of LeBron James!

Anyway...

road!

I, David Stern, have laid it out for you.

The script is also absolutely wonderful.

The finals "23vs24", stepping on the old god to become the new god, the next road depends on how LeBron goes!

But what Li Wan didn't expect was that the person who promoted the rule change this time was actually him...

In addition, due to his own influence and the promotion of "LeBron, walk", the public opinion in the entire league paying attention to LeBron's walk issue is greater than before!

So much so that many media jumped out and ridiculed LeBron: If he fails to win the championship this season, it will be the most ruthless ridicule to David Stern and the entire league...

Translated into the domestic language is...

Mud cannot hold up a wall.

A reporter asked Li Wan to express some opinions on this matter. Li Wan smiled and said: "The alliance's opinion is my opinion, and I support the alliance's decision!"

This group of reporters was stunned...

Li Wan didn't say too much, but still smiled and said: "Time will prove that these are all the truth!"

On January 1, along with the controversy, the "Player of the Month Award" for the Eastern and Western Conferences in December was officially announced.

The "Best of the Month" in the Eastern Conference belongs to the "Big Three". The Celtics only lost 1 game in the entire month of December. The invincible team that swept everything in the regular season last season is back!

The "Best of the Month" in the Western Conference continues to belong to Kobe Bryant.

The Lakers lost 4 games in December, but they are still the team with the fewest losses in the Western Conference.

Overall, the pattern of the league is still "weak in the east and strong in the west", but if we only look at the top three teams, the Eastern Conference is very strong this year.

Throughout December, the Magic lost 3 games and the Cavaliers lost 4. There is a gap compared to the Celtics, but in the West, they are the most dominant team in December.

The first day of 2009 was also a big drama.

Last season's Finals champions and runners-up met. The Lakers faced the Boston Celtics at home. This was the second time they met this season. In the end, the Lakers won tonight's victory, and the last game was at Boston's home court.

, they left with defeat.

Only one of the two "Best of the Month" can survive, and his name is Kobe Bryant.

In this way, the current situation becomes interesting.

Several popular teams...

The Magic defeated the Lakers and Cavaliers, but lost to the Celtics and Rockets;

The Rockets beat the Magic and Lakers, but lost to the Celtics and Cavaliers;

The Cavaliers won against the Lakers and Rockets, but lost against the Magic and Celtics;

The defending champion Lakers, after tonight's game, they have one win and one loss with the Celtics, and have lost to the Magic, Cavaliers and Rockets. The situation is the worst.

The Celtics are in the best situation. Except for losing to the Lakers this time, they have won several other games against the favorites for the championship...

It is also for this reason that Spinach adjusted their winning odds to the most exaggerated 1.1 to 1...

"In the most chaotic season, who will be the final champion of this season!"

"With each other winning and losing, the regular season rankings of the Eastern and Western Conferences are likely to determine the final destination of the championship!"

"The most difficult difficulty in history? Five teams compete for the championship honor. If the Lakers can defend the title, they will be the top three defending champions in history!"

…

The media also noticed this pattern when they were summarizing halfway.

The next day, most media reported on this phenomenon.

The outside discussion suddenly became louder, and the popularity of the NBA on the Internet continued to rise.

Bill Walton bluntly stated that this will be the most suspenseful season in the NBA in the past ten years: "Until the last minute, I think it will be difficult to come to a conclusion about the ownership of the championship!"

Carmelo Anthony, who had just arrived in Orlando, was not happy with this.

Because this time...

The Nuggets' name didn't appear on the discussion list again!

Am I not worthy of my ranking as "Second in the Big West"?

Our winning rate against these strong teams is also very high...

us……

Losing to the Cavaliers 100 to 103...this is not right.

Losing to the Celtics 91 to 101...this is not right either.

Lost to the Rockets 90 to 99...

Lost to the Lakers 98-106...

100-91 win over the Magic...

Yes, that’s right!

This is it!

Win the Magic 100 to 91!

We beat the Magic, so why are we not the favorites to win the championship?

Carmelo Anthony is angry!

It just so happens that tomorrow is another game against the Magic...

Let's see how the Nuggets defeat the "championship favorites" you call them!

Attending a press conference in the afternoon, a reporter mentioned the previous war of words between Carmelo Anthony and Lee Wan.

After winning the home game against the Magic, a reporter asked Carmelo Anthony if the Nuggets could still win if Lee Wan was not suspended tonight.

Anthony's answer is that no matter who it is, it will not affect the Nuggets' win.

Li Wan’s response was: See you in Orlando!

Anthony, who was already very unhappy, regained his memory, oh, it was about that incident.
