NBA: Back to 97, to be the Jagged Bishop

Chapter 349 Ao Pang, who shoots 70% of three-pointers

The next best lineup of the year, Ao Pang's mouth will be crooked.

Because Yao Ming is in the first team this year, and he is in the second team.

Last season, O'Fat was still there, because the Philadelphia 76ers were No. 76 in the East and the Lakers were No. [-] in the West. In terms of record, even if the Philadelphia [-]ers were better, they did not widen the gap with the Lakers.

In addition, Ao Pang's statistics are not worse than Yao Ming's, and his defensive efficiency is much higher than Yao Ming's, so Ao Pang has naturally become a center forward.

But this year is different. The two are in the Eastern Conference. The record of the Philadelphia 76ers is two places higher than that of the Bobcats. This season, because of the pseudo-Princeton system played by Carlesimo, Yao Ming's statistics have also skyrocketed, especially the assist statistics. An average of 7.8 assists, and even ranked in the top fifteen assists.

"Coach, look at how much I paid for the Bobcats."

"For the Bobcats, I was squeezed out for the first time in eight years."

"We must win the championship this season!"

Ao Pang complained in a low voice to Kumbu.

Kumbu was speechless, and Ao Pang was squeezed out for a while. In fact, it was mainly Carlesimo's fault. If he hadn't played Princeton in the Philadelphia 76ers, Yao Ming's statistics would not have improved by this magnitude.

For a while Yao Ming, Big Zhi, Garnett, Kobe, Kidd.

In the second team, O'Pang, Duncan, Hill, Alien Cassel, Iverson.

Three teams, Big Ben, Nowitzki, Gerrard, Reid, Parker.

The best team is three teams, and this year there are six players. Among them, Daba and Daben are tied, and both were selected as three-team centers.

Unknowingly, the bus has become the league's top center.

In fact, this is also the result of the withering era of centers. Apart from Yao Ming and Ao Pang, the real strong traditional center seems to be only the bus.

Ben is a blue-collar worker, boxing champion Chandler's offensive ability is slightly stronger than Ben's, but he is incomparable with the bus, which is a fully weakened version of the bus.

Only Parker was selected to the best team for the Raptors this year, and Carter was not even selected for the third team.

It's not that Carter's strength is not as good as Parker's, but that Carter plays the third position, and the competition for the forward position is too fierce.

Based on Hill's performance this year, it must be a series of high-level honors in the era that Kumbu did not travel through.

The competition in the backcourt was not so fierce. McGrady was reimbursed for the season, leaving a position vacant, which was taken by Parker.

Iverson was not selected for the first round, mainly because he had too many injuries this season and missed too many games, otherwise Kidd might not have anything to do for the first round.

Seeing that the Raptors of the former prosperous dynasty have only one third-team player left, Kumbu sighed.

When I coached the Raptors, five players were selected to the best team in the peak season.

The Philadelphia 76ers are still strong, and three of them were selected to the best team this year.

For the New York Knicks, like the No. [-] Timberwolves in the West, both of them were selected to the best team.

Although the Bobcats led by Comb are fourth in the Eastern Conference this year, no one has any objections to the selection of Oban and Hill.

After the list of the best team was announced, everyone held their breath.

Because the next thing is the most golden honor of this year's regular season.

"I announce that Grant Hill is the Most Valuable Player of the Year for the 2003-2004 season!" Stern's voice resounded in everyone's ears.

Hill was surprised at first, and then became ecstatic.

Today, he has played in the league for exactly ten years. During his time with the Pistons, he was selected to the best team and won honors such as the best rookie.

After being reimbursed for consecutive seasons after the Magic, Hill no longer dared to have any extravagant hopes for personal honor.

Not to mention the MVP, this time he was selected to the best second team, which already made him feel God's blessing.

After the ecstasy, Hill smiled wryly again. He hadn't been selected for a while, but he was selected as the MVP. This is really outrageous.

Although Ao Pang has not won a championship so far in his career, he has already won two regular season MVPs. He wants this award, but he is not extremely eager.

After seeing Hill winning the award, Ao Pang stepped forward and hugged Hill affectionately to express his congratulations.

"Grant, congratulations, you have now steadily won a Hall of Fame spot."

Oban praised.

Hill quickly shook his head and said modestly: "How can it be so exaggerated, can an MVP enter the Hall of Fame?"

"And the MVP this time is very weird. I didn't even get selected for a while, but I got the MVP. I don't know what the fans will think. Maybe they will say that I bought the MVP with money."

The crowd laughed.

The regular season MVP failed to be selected for a team. This has happened more than once in NBA history.

Dave Cowens appeared for the first time. He was the coach of the Charlotte Hornets and had a good relationship with Comb.

Cowens just won the regular season MVP, but was not selected for a team.

Then there is Lord of the Rings Bill Russell. He is more exaggerated. He has won five regular season MVPs in total, but three of them were not in the first round.

This situation has occurred four times in history, and the Lord of the Rings has occupied three times alone.

The reason why it is so outrageous is that in the ancient times, the MVP was selected by the players, and the best team was selected by the media. In the eyes of the media, Chamberlain must be more "valuable" than Russell.

In the eyes of players, Russell's defensive gate is obviously more difficult to deal with than Chamberlain.

This created a spectacle where Russell was elected MVP three times but failed to be selected for a team.

However, the current NBA's MVP and the best team are all selected by the media. In theory, it is impossible to have a non-match MVP.

Comb guessed that Hill's inspirational model should have added points to him. When the media selected the MVP, everyone voted for him, even if they were not the first votes. Sitting on the throne of MVP.

This season, Hill is really inspirational. He suffered the kind of injury that was about to retire, but now he has returned, playing the style of the league's number one small forward, and there is nothing wrong with him being elected as the MVP.

In addition, Hill averaged a triple-double in the regular season this season, which is also a plus.

The Bobcats are a new army. Under the leadership of Hill in the first season, they played the fourth record in the Eastern Conference, which is even more of a plus.

The fan base is good, the popularity is overwhelming, and the All-Star votes are king.

Anyway, no matter how you look at it, Hill is qualified to be elected as this MVP.

"Grant, don't be humble, this MVP is indeed the most suitable for you."

"In addition, you are already a sure-fire Hall of Fame player. There is no doubt about this. If you don't make it, I don't think the Hall of Fame has any meaning."

Comb said that because Hill would have been inducted into the Hall of Fame under normal circumstances.

Now that Hill has one more MVP, he will definitely win a championship in the future. How could he not be selected for the Hall of Fame.

Hearing what Kumbu said, Hill's eyes were moist. He is an emotional player himself. The life after joining the Bobcats was something he couldn't even imagine when he was in the Magic period.

……

Game [-] of the Eastern Conference semifinals begins.

Just a few minutes into the first quarter of the game, the Bobcats had the upper hand.

Pippen, who has returned to his peak period, has an absolute crushing advantage against Duron Davis. Relying on this advantage, Hill played very relaxed.

The hacker Marion who is facing Hill right now not only needs to be optimistic about Hill, but also has to keep an eye on Pippen to help the dragon Davis wipe his ass.

One should not be distracted, and Marion gave Hill a chance when he was distracted.

A few minutes gave the Bobcats a six-point advantage. Old Thomas was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth on the sidelines.

He was thinking about how to win in his mind, and the Knicks were only one game away from eliminating the Bobcats.

After thinking about it, he had an idea.

When he was still the vice president of the Raptors, Combe had fought against O'Pang. At that time, Combu's method was to use shark-slashing tactics against O'Pang.

The effect was very good, completely interrupting the Lakers' offensive rhythm.

Now old Thomas has no better way, he can only come up with this trick.

When the Bobcats played against the Pistons in the first round, because Ben was also a free throw hole, Carlisle didn't use this trick at the time.

When they beat the Knicks in the second round, the Knicks had always maintained a big advantage, and the old Thomas didn't have to take off his pants and fart.

Now he has to use the shark-slashing tactic.

"Dudududu!"

The referee blew his whistle and sent Ao Pang to the free throw line.

"Shh!"

"Shh!"

Ao Pang actually made two free throws.

With these two free throws in place, Ao Pang even expected his opponent to send him to the free throw line.

One of two free throws.

Made both free throws.

One of two free throws.

In the following time, Ao Pang on the field was strange. This guy made 11 free throws in the first quarter, and he made 8 of them!
With a hit rate of more than [-]%, Ao Pang also ate dumplings tonight.

Not long after the start of the second quarter, Thomas Sr. still refused to give up and made another cut.

This time, Ao Pang still made two free throws, which completely made Lao Deng lose interest in the shark-killing tactics.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the Bobcats had another big win.

Originally, in the last 5 minutes, the Bobcats were leading by about six points, and then I saw that Combe replaced the exhausted and panting Pippen with the lively Slee.

This substitution also completely shattered the Knicks' thoughts of recovering the point difference. They finally lost by 11 points.

Sly has now become a super killer in the hands of Combe, even if he can only play for 5 minutes, but as long as he is allowed to play, especially when the game enters the final stage and the players are exhausted, Sly's combat effectiveness is more prominent. .

Not to mention that the Bobcats are still leading by six points, even if the two sides are tied, Comb is also confident that after Slee's debut, he will kill the Knicks.

During the handshake session after the game, Kumbu joined Thomas Sr.

"Old man, tell me about you. If you really suspect that Pippen is taking banned drugs, just tell me no. I will take the initiative to go to Stern to apply for a drug test, so that you will not be scolded by so many people."

"You still don't trust me. We've known each other for so many years."

Kong Bu smiled happily, and Lao Deng's face turned green.

"You kid, don't be too happy, we are still in the lead now, and there are still two games to come. You don't really think that these two games will win all of them?"

"You just got lucky tonight. Shaq hits the free throw line so well. You don't think he's going to keep shooting like that every night, do you?"

Lao Deng said unhappily.

"Good luck? Shaq has a high hit rate? Old man, why don't you report to Stern again."

"Maybe Shaq's on the dope, too."

Combe laughed and teased old Thomas, blushing from what old Thomas said, and turned around and left.

After winning two games in a row, this Bobcats gave people unlimited confidence. Maybe they can really accomplish miracles that others cannot?
There is no team in history that can come back 3:0, but Kumbu has created so many miraculous histories, it seems that this time is not bad.

Kumbu is also a little bit unconfident now, and he is also afraid that O'Pang's free throw will become a short board for the Bobcats.

Ao Pang played against the sky tonight, making more than [-]% of his free throws, which doesn't look like a normal performance.

I must find a way to solve O'Pang's free throw.

Early the next morning, Comb led the team back to Charlotte, and the next sixth game was Charlotte's home court.

In the evening of that day, Kumbu called all the generals for a training camp. This time he simply invited some media reporters to watch the training match.

Before the training started, Kumbu directly bound the three-point calibration device that was originally bound to Hill to Ao Fat.

Of course, it's impossible for Kumbu to lose his mind and let O'Pang shoot a three-pointer from the outside. No matter how stupid the coach is, he can't do it.

The reason for doing this is that on the one hand, Hill's three-point shots are relatively small, and it seems that there is not much difference between whether there is a three-point calibration device.

On the other hand, Kongbu wants Ao Pang to show his powerful three-point ability in front of the media, and create a little trick for Lao Deng.

A player with a strong three-pointer cannot make a bad free throw. In the entire NBA history, there is no case where a top three-pointer missed a free throw.

"In the next practice game, Shaq, you shoot me crazy threes."

"I don't care how you shoot, anyway, in the 20-minute training game, you should shoot me at least thirty three-pointers!"

Before the start of the training match, Kumbu yelled at Ao Pang directly.

Ao Pang was speechless. He felt that this young coach had taken the wrong medicine again. He didn't have the slightest three-point ability.

There are so many media present today, and many of them are filming, isn't Kongbu determined to make himself look ugly?

The reporters were also speechless, wondering whether it was because Kumbu didn't want to reveal the tactics of the game and deliberately let Ao Pang do it perfunctorily.

Soon the training match officially started.

"Shh!"

"Shh!"

"Shh!"

Facing Er Pang's defense, Ao Pang's three-pointer was amazing. He made seven of the first 10 three-pointers!
Er Pang himself is not the kind of player who is good at defending against shots. He is more than ten centimeters shorter than Ao Pang, and his jump is not as high as Ao Pang's. How can he defend Ao Pang's three-pointer.

Moreover, he was afraid of Ao Pang, and he didn't dare to defend with all his strength in the training game, which made Ao Pang almost open for three-pointers.

The three-point calibration device can allow players to have a three-point attribute of up to 95 points, which is the historical level of three-point shooting. How can the shooting rate be low for this kind of open three-point training.

After playing a 20-minute training game, Ao Pangzhen made 30 three-pointers, and then he actually hit 21 of them, a 70% three-point shooting rate.

Ao Pang was stunned, all the Bobcats were stunned, and all the media reporters were also stunned.

Is this guy really Ao Pang who made less than [-]% of his free throws?Someone can make less than [-]% of free throws, but can shoot [-]% of three-pointers?
