Chapter 394 Season Ranking
The 69-13 Columbus Explorers eventually ranked first in the Eastern Conference and first in the league.
The record of the Golden State Warriors is the same as theirs. They have one win and one loss in 2 games, but when calculating the net difference, they averaged 1.2 points less than the Columbus Explorers. Too much, the Hornets and Trail Blazers alone are not weaker than them. If they collide with them, even if they win, they will have to be skinned off.
Therefore, even if the two sides have the same record and the number of wins between each other is the same, the Columbus Explorers had the last laugh and became the team with the best All-Star record this season.
For the Warriors, this must be the most aggrieved "second in the league"!
In the last game of the season against the Celtics, Li Wan scored 71 points, which allowed him to average more than 60 points per game this season. In a total of 79 regular season games, he averaged an exaggerated 60.1 points per game. point!
This made him not only another player who averaged 50 points per game after Chamberlain, but also the only player in NBA history to average more than 60 points per game!
His total score this season is also an exaggerated 4748 points!
Last season's career total score has come to 26512 points, plus this season's 4748 points, his career total score has come to 31260 points!
This makes him officially the eighth player in NBA history to reach 3 points in his career.
And he only spent 12 seasons!
And after the end of this season, he is only 7 points away from Chamberlain, who is 159th in the NBA's historical scoring list...
Based on his state this season, he may become the 7th in NBA history after only three games in the new season!
And after the end of the new season, he can even surpass Kobe and Michael Jordan, and climb to the fourth place in the all-time scoring list...
This speed really makes people gasp and shout "It's so scary"!
In addition to his exaggerated scoring average, Li Wan also averaged 13.4 rebounds and 6.7 assists per game.This brings his total career rebounds and assists to 8711 and 8747, respectively.
In the NBA's historical total rebound list and total assist list, he can be ranked 60th and 9th respectively!
This is also the only player in the NBA so far who ranks in the top 10 in both the total scoring list and the total assists list.
This season, Li Wan's average steals and blocks per game are 3.5 and 2.5 respectively.
The total number of steals reached 2318 after this season, surpassing Maurice Cheeks and coming to the sixth place in the NBA's history of total steals.
The number of blocks surpassed Alton Liszt, and came to the 40th place in the history of total blocks list, with a total of 1449 blocks!
With an average of 60.1 points per game and 3.5 steals per game, Li Wan has won the "Scoring Champion" for the 8th time in his career, and the number of "Stealing Champions" has come to 5 times!
It's just a pity that this season's "God of Zhuang" is still possessed by the "God of Rebounds", averaging 15.6 rebounds per game. In addition, Embiid has also reached the hardest stage of his career, averaging 13.6 rebounds per game. The average 13.4 rebounds per game can only be ranked third in the average rebounds list.
In addition, Li Wan once again made history in the number of three-pointers. This season, he averaged 9.6 three-pointers per game. In the history of the NBA, this has never happened before.
This also brought his average 3-pointers per game this season to an exaggerated 759!
More than 700 three-pointers in a single season...
When the NBA first introduced the three-point line, I'm afraid no one would have thought that such a situation would happen!
Moreover, Li Wan's three-point shooting rate is particularly exaggerated, with an average shooting rate of more than 50% per game. For him, this NBA is no longer a league, but more like a shooting game!
But there is no way. After expanding the "three-second zone", it is easier for outside players to enter the inside with the ball. When defending Li Wan's breakthrough with the ball, they must keep a certain distance, and this also gives Li Wan had ample opportunity to make a move.
There are two ways to defend Li Wan now, either let him break through, or let him shoot a three-pointer. It is simply impossible to do both!
And Li Wan's shooting percentage inside the three-point line this season is even exaggerated, as high as 70%. You said, in comparison, is it a wiser choice to let Li Wan shoot outside the three-point line?
In a word, this season's Li Wan is really not human, this is the "God of Basketball" coming to experience on the court.
Barkley even shouted: "I really didn't expect that this is the real peak of Li Wan!"
After 12 years at the peak, it turned out that this is the time when Li Wan is at his peak!
Barkley's admiration for Li Wan has reached an even more "brain-dead" level...
With Li Wan's average data fixed, the top eight in the East and West are also settled:
In the east, the Columbus Explorers rank first;
Behind them is the Raptors, who spent a long time at the No. 3 spot in the Eastern Conference until late March.
Their performance this season is good enough, but Li Wan and the Columbus Explorers started in February, the momentum is too strong!Their final record was 66 wins and 16 losses, which is already the best season in the history of the Raptors.
Ranked third in the Eastern Conference is the Bucks.
"Brother Antetokounmpo" has evolved again. Seriously, if it weren't for Li Wan's brilliance this season, "Brother Antetokounmpo" will also enter the discussion of MVP players in the regular season, but there is no way, who made this season meet What about Li Wan!
All the media knows that in the regular season MVP award, other players have two words this season:
Accompany run!
Some media have already proposed "remedial measures" there, or should we give "Antetokounmpo" a "Most Improved Player Award"?
Ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference is the Philadelphia 76ers!
Philadelphia, which "believes in the process," reached the upper circle again this year.
Coincidentally, the fifth is still the Wizards!
These two teams met again in the playoffs this season.
The sixth is the Boston Celtics. Irving was sent away, and the state of the "double explorer" began to pick up, but it took time and the number of games. They once fell to the 8th position in the Eastern Conference, but slowly climbed up again. return.
The seventh is the Detroit Pistons. The combination of Drummond and Downs brought the "Motor City" back to the big stage of the playoffs, and this day is exactly 10 years since they last entered the playoffs!
This made the Detroit media shout "It's not easy!"
Eighth is the Charlotte Bobcats.
With the top 8 in the Eastern Conference officially falling down the rankings.
The groupings for the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs also have results:
Columbus Explorers VS Bobcats; Raptors VS Pistons; Bucks VS Boston Celtics; Wizards VS Philadelphia 76ers!
The top 8 in the west also has results.
The first is the Golden State Warriors who are still "cosmic brave".
The second is the Hornets, and the third is the Trail Blazers.
The fourth is the Denver Nuggets.
Before the start of the new season, the Lakers, who once made fans feel that a revival was in sight, were finally ranked fifth in the Western Conference.
Although all the media believe that the strength of the Lakers' lineup is not as good as the "Top Three" in the West, they only ranked fifth in the end. To be stronger.
But in the end it was such a result, which is really unsatisfactory.
Is it possible...
Is LeBron James really getting old?
And when this kind of remarks came up, the LeBron James group completely panicked.
Because if you want to keep this kind of speech going, you can only rely on performance, but now LeBron James in the Lakers, how can he fight against the current "Western Big Three"?
Most importantly, they are only ranked fifth in the Western Conference this season, and it is already a very difficult thing to beat the Nuggets "under the top".
How to defeat the more powerful "Western Top Three" can only be considered after defeating the Nuggets.
And, if anything, LeBron James really doesn't want to make it to the next round.
You must know that they will most likely face the Warriors in the next round. He just left the Warriors and was eliminated by the Warriors in the playoffs. This...
Doesn't it explain again, is it the right choice for the Warriors to trade him away?
But if he can't defeat the new power of the Nuggets, the remarks about his aging will probably become more and more turbulent.As for the "cold-blooded" of the giants of the Lakers, even the "Triple Crown" like Shaq O'Neal will be sent away as soon as they say it.Are you sure you can leave him a way out?
So the Nuggets must win, and the Warriors must also face it.
It can only be said that in the second half of the nine innings of life, every step is very difficult.
The sixth in the Western Conference is the Kings. They entered the upper circle of the Western Conference last season and they have fallen back this season. Of course, this is also normal. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how bad they are, as long as there is no trouble, the fifth place in the West will still be stable.
Coupled with the Nuggets' spirit...
Being able to rank sixth in the West, the Kings can be regarded as stabilizing the situation.
In the absence of big names to join, it would have been difficult for them to go further.
The seventh place in the Western Conference belongs to the Jazz. Now it is the "cousin era". Lillard averaged 26.5 points per game this season. No matter how you say it, he is also the future "75". There's nothing wrong with the playoffs.
Not to mention that he has Gordon Hayward assisting him.
This backcourt is considered relatively good in the entire NBA.
The eighth place in the West belongs to the Spurs.
Although Leonard was thunderous, the background of the old Spurs still allowed them to break into the playoffs again.
But this time, there is also the help of other teams in the West. In terms of "pecking each other", the Spurs win because they have a team. In this era of "superstar grouping" to the extreme, the teams after the eighth in the West are really nothing. A star in his prime.
The Suns do have Booker who has already made a name for himself.
But a guard, but a guard who relies on technology, wants to hone the skills that can lead the team to the playoffs, not just two or three years.
Kobe at his peak had been training for a year before he led the team to the playoffs.
Booker still needs to grind slowly for a while.
The matchup groups of the Western Conference playoffs are thus released:
Warriors VS Spurs, Hornets VS Jazz, Trail Blazers VS Kings, Nuggets VS Lakers...
In the eight-group matchup between the East and the West, the only suspenseful group is the Nuggets VS Lakers.
In the eyes of outside experts, this group of matchups against the Lakers is the side with a greater chance of winning because they are more experienced, and this is the first time the Nuggets have reached the playoffs after having Jokic.
It's completely different to experience the playoffs once than never.
Therefore, in the eyes of more experts, the Lakers are likely to achieve "the next victory". Although they are only 2 games away from the Nuggets, they are still "the weak win the strong"...
On the Eastern side, because the Philadelphia 76ers defeated the Wizards last season, Howard has further degraded this season, and experts don't even think that the Wizards can complete revenge.
As for other games, there is no suspense.
For the other three series in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, in the eyes of many experts, this is just a formality.
On April 4, the league announced the "Best Rookie" for the 16-18 season.
This season's competition for this award can be summed up in one sentence:
It hasn't been this lively in many years.
Not one, not two, three!
Instead, several rookies have achieved the results that could win the "Best Rookie Award" in previous years.
But the person who finally won this award was Doncic.
Averaged 21.1 points, 7.8 rebounds, 8 assists and 1.1 steals per game.
Dallas hasn't had a freshman this good in years.
When winning the "Best Rookie", Dirk Nowitzki stood next to Doncic. This is Dirk's 20th season. After finishing this season with Doncic, he has also announced that, I am about to retire and enter the next phase of my life.
After Doncic had a stellar rookie season, and it was clear he could go without hesitation, the city had a new guardian.
To a certain extent, Cuban, Dirk Nowitzki and Dallas are the most perfect examples of "one person, one city" in David Stern's mind.
But to achieve this step, it is extremely harsh.
First of all, before 2010, Dirk Nowitzki's entire career was a tragedy. If he were replaced by another team, he might have been traded long ago.
Secondly, Cuban's love is the same for Nowitzki. For others, he is not a good boss.
Then there is the city of Dallas, where black stars are not respected enough, this is a city full of racial discrimination...
So, this is an unrepeatable dream.
Of course, it now appears that there is a sequel to this dream. Nowitzki's 20 years of persistence made Dallas wait for Doncic, a talented "novice genius" who was brilliant as soon as he debuted.
For now, at least, the future looks bright for Dallas and Doncic. (end of this chapter)
