There were many injuries in the first round of the series. Even the Warriors had injuries, but Curry was still the only leader!
But Deng Fang didn't take any action, not even Curry!
Why is this?
Because of system limitations!
Since the 14-15 season, the system's restrictions on Deng Fang's medical treatment have become more and more strict. Players from other teams cannot take action during the regular season, but they can take action during the playoffs, but the cost of ability is five times higher than before!
You must know that the price will be doubled in the playoffs, and will be doubled again after each round. This price almost ruins Deng Fang’s possibility of making money by treating diseases!
Of course, the system also leaves a way out, which is to treat the players on your own team twice as much as before.
The previous rule was: If a player is injured during the regular season, if the injury needs to be treated for more than a month, the main player will consume 20 ability points at a time, and the role player will consume 10 ability points at a time. If the injury is less than a month, the main player will consume 10 ability points at a time.
Consumes 10 ability points, 5 for role players at a time.
If you are injured in the playoffs, the ability value required to treat the disease will double every round. That is, in the first round, the main players will have 40 major injuries and 20 minor injuries. In the second round, the main players will have 80 major injuries and 40 minor injuries.
And so on.
Now, in the first round, the main force suffered 80 major injuries and 40 minor injuries. In the second round, the main force suffered 160 major injuries and 80 minor injuries, and so on.
Of course, if they are players from other teams, the main players in the first round will suffer 200 serious injuries and 100 minor injuries. In the second round, the main players will suffer 400 major injuries and 200 minor injuries, and so on!
At this price, Deng Fang would not dare to treat players from other teams because the cost is too high!
Even the players of the Warriors can spare no effort in the playoffs and don't take any action if they can.
Although Deng Fang didn't take many shots in the regular season, he has accumulated a lot of ability points in the past two seasons. However, if something unexpected happens in the finals, he will be depressed if he has no ability points by then!
According to this rule, if you need to take action in the finals, the cost of ability points will be astronomical - this is still treating the Warriors' own players - if it is a player from another team, it is simply impossible!
Therefore, Deng Fang refused all requests for medical treatment, no matter how much the offer was, he refused.
Deng Fang didn't even care if Curry was injured!
I didn't care about Curry's injury. Firstly, the cost was a bit high, and secondly, because Deng Fang was confident that even without Curry, there would be no problem in the first and second rounds!
…
The first round is over and the various awards for the regular season have been announced.
Not surprisingly, the MVP was still won by Curry, there is no doubt about it!
You must know that Curry's record of 73 wins in history made Curry unanimously elected MVP. Now with 82 consecutive wins and no losses, there is no suspense about the MVP!
Anyone who dares not to vote for Curry will probably commit suicide by caesarean section after being exposed!
Counting this MVP, Curry has dominated the list for 7 consecutive years!
It is estimated that all experts and media people have long been tired of aesthetics, but there is nothing they can do. The Warriors are too far ahead and Curry's performance has been maintained at a very high level. Even if you want to find a player similar to Curry, it is difficult!
If the father-in-law says the father-in-law is right, the mother-in-law says the mother-in-law is right, it will only work if the circumstances are similar. If the difference is too great, no one can do it!
With the Warriors' record and Curry's performance, if you really don't vote for Curry, then it's not a question of ability, it's a problem with your eyes - you're blind!
…
The first round is over and the second round will begin immediately.
The first is the showdown between the league's number one Warriors and the Trail Blazers.
Needless to say, the Warriors relied on their strong strength to get through. Even if Curry missed 3 games, the Rockets still had no way to deal with the Warriors.
The Blazers won by luck. If Paul and Griffin were not both injured, the Blazers would not advance - at least the probability would be very small!
