Chapter 195 Injury Frenzy! Death of a Star!
After an upset loss to the Wizards in an away game, the Knicks' January schedule has come to an end.
In January, the data of Lin Yi children's shoes rose steadily, averaging 22.7 points, 11.7 rebounds, 7.1 assists, 2.9 blocks and 1.1 steals per game.
There is no suspense in the East Rookie of the Month award in January, and Lin Yi easily won it again.
People who compared Jennings and Lin Yi at the beginning of the season are regretting it now, because since that 55-point highlight performance, Jennings, who has won unlimited blacksmithing rights, is simply the number one forge of "Dalaran Blacksmith". Every night, fans of the Bucks can hear a musical feast composed of bang ding dong as the main melody.
You must know that 40% of the hits are regarded as iron for others, but for Jennings, it is a super-level performance.
The best rookie of the month in the Western Conference in January was won by Stephen Curry. Curry, one of the "wave brothers", ushered in a wave of small explosions in January as Lin Yi remembered, averaging 18.6 points per game , 6.3 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 2.1 steals, shooting 48.1% from the field and 47% from the three-point range, which is quite efficient.
The best player of the month in the Eastern Conference in January was reelected by LeBron James. "My Emperor" led the Cavaliers to a record of 12 wins and 3 losses in January, averaging 30.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 8.5 assists, and 1.6 steals per game And 1.5 blocks, the shooting rate is as high as 50.3%, the three-point shooting rate is 35.3%, and he can throw 2.1 three-pointers per game.
The Cavaliers have won consecutive victories, especially after they robbed the Wizards after "holding a gun", in exchange for Jamison, a scorer who averaged 20+ per game, the excited "big shark" O'Neal has already shouted to win the championship when facing the media interview slogan.
Of course, some Jamies expressed dissatisfaction with O'Neill. Why did you say that your grandma could win the championship with Jordan, but this time with "My Emperor", why didn't you say that your grandma could win the championship with "My Emperor"?
It seems that it is time to discuss the historical status of Grandma O'Neal!
The best player of the month in the Western Conference in January was won by "I Cannon". After Scott got out of get out of class, Paul tried his best every game. Paul led the Hornets to a record of 11 wins and 5 losses in January. Get 20.8 points, 11.9 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 2.4 steals.
The Hornets seemed to have the momentum to return to the playoffs, but Lin Yi knew that Paul would not be far from being injured if he played like this.
In January, Paul’s average playing time was as high as 41.8 minutes. In order to drive the Hornets, Paul’s offense has increased, his singles have also increased, and he has tried his best to defend...It is only a matter of time before the Hornets disband up.
After the end of the journey in January, the Knicks' current record is 33 wins and 13 losses, continuing to rank third in the East, and they are firmly ranked sixth in ESPN's strength rankings.
In the season MVP rankings, Lin Yi has risen to the third position, second only to James and Kobe.
It is worth mentioning that Lin Yi accepted an exclusive interview with CCTV on the eve of the Spring Festival, and paid New Year greetings to Chinese fans through the TV lens. Unfortunately, China has a Spring Festival holiday, but the NBA does not. However, there are many Chinese in New York, and Lin Yi can also feel it. To the New Year's atmosphere.
In addition, Lin Yi decided that he must find a girlfriend before the Spring Festival next year, because celebrating the festival alone is too boring.
...
Ends in January and starts in February.
February has always been a relatively unique month for the NBA. First of all, the All-Star Game is usually held in February. Secondly, according to the NBA schedule, the trade deadline is generally in the middle and late February.
The Knicks are arguably the most unique team in the NBA right now.
Other teams are busy with trades and reinforcements, only the Knicks are watching the excitement like a melon-eating crowd.
Many Knicks fans are extremely anxious, and have even started to make suggestions for the team. Today they traded Kobe to the Knicks, and they traded James to the Knicks tomorrow.
In fact, people don't know that it's not that the Knicks have no intention of trading, but that the team's deputy general manager Javier Stanford prevented several stupid things that general manager Donnie Walsh wanted to do.
For example, Donnie Walsh looked at the data and felt that Salmons was a strong defender, and he actually planned to trade Gallinari. Fortunately, Javier Stanford decisively blocked the deal.
Lin Yi decisively praised JaVale after learning about this incident. Facts once again proved that most of the managers who can operate in the league don't understand football.
Both Lin Yi and Javier Stanford are not in favor of the Knicks making a trade in the middle of this season, because the Knicks do not have a good bargaining chip in their hands, and general manager Donnie Walsh had a hard time cleaning up the team's salary space before. If Si forcefully strengthens, at this time, all he can get in return is a pile of salary burden.
Donnie Walsh is not stupid. His original purpose of inquiring around was to fear that Lin Yi would be dissatisfied with the team's inaction. Now Lin Yiren is not dissatisfied. Professional advice from Will Stanford.
Of course, Lin Yi couldn't be dissatisfied, because he knew very well that in his memory, Nix died of a sudden illness.
Many people will criticize the Warriors' superstar grouping and star gathering in the future, but the fundamental reason why the Warriors can gather a bunch of All-Star players is because the LOGO man has laid a solid foundation for the Warriors.
Not to open contracts randomly, and not to trade randomly is sometimes the best reinforcement.
...
At the beginning of February, "Amy" ushered in bad news. The star of the Philadelphia 76ers, Allen Iverson, held a press conference and said that because his youngest daughter suffered from a strange disease and high fever, he would quit. At this year's Dallas All-Star Game, he announced that he would terminate his contract with the Philadelphia 76ers for the rest of the season and return home to focus on taking care of his young daughter.
Countless "Amys" burst into tears. They voted frantically this year in order to be able to see Iverson again in the All-Star Game. Unfortunately, they are destined not to see that scene.
Because of Iverson's withdrawal, the league announced that New York Knicks power forward David Lee will be added to the Eastern All-Star bench, while Atlanta Hawks star Joe Johnson will become the Eastern All-Star starter.
Compared with "Ai Mi", "Ke Mi" felt much happier, but such happiness did not last long.
After entering February, the Lakers officially announced that Kobe Bryant will withdraw from the Dallas All-Star Game due to a long-term index finger injury. In addition, the Lakers also announced that Kobe will be sidelined for two weeks.
The absence of Iverson and Kobe has reduced the attention of the Dallas All-Star Game a lot. David Stern is now even more convinced that he was right to support Lin Yi.
Because many fans left messages on the Internet, perhaps the only motivation that can support them to continue watching this year's All-Star Game is that Lin Yi will participate in the Slam Dunk Contest and the All-Star Game.
The blow to the fans is not over yet, because Trail Blazers star "Yellow Mamba" Roy will also miss the Dallas All-Star Game due to injury.
Injuries are always the biggest enemy of these stars. In the NBA, there are far more geniuses who are ruined by injuries than those who eventually become useful.
So far, the East and West rosters for the Dallas All-Star Game are basically determined.
Eastern starters: Lin Yi, Garnett, James, Wade, Joe Johnson; Substitutes: Rondo, David Lee, Rose, Pierce, Howard, Bosh, Gerald Wallace; Head coach: Stan Van Gundy.
Eagles center Al Horford, who was supposed to be selected to the All-Star East bench lineup this year, was squeezed to the bench because of Lin Yi's appearance, "Warcraft" Howard was squeezed to the bench, so unfortunately missed.
Western starters: Stoudemire, Duncan, Nowitzki, Anthony, Nash; Substitutes: Gasol, Durant, Randolph, Deron Williams, Billups, Kidd, Paul ; Coach: George Karl.
The outside line in the west can be said to have been injured. After Roy and Kobe retired, Lin Yi, if I remember correctly, Paul will also retire. It seems that Chris Kaman will be replaced at that time...
There are indeed a lot of injuries this year. Many celebrities who said that the current NBA confrontation is not as fierce as before have shut up. Are you still saying that this injury is not intense?
Lin Yi himself knew very well that if it wasn't for the healing technique, he might have been injured at least seven or eight times this season.
It seems that during this period, the number of hugs and throws in the NBA has decreased a lot, but the rhythm is also much faster than before. The physical fitness of modern basketball players must be better than the previous generation, and the medical level is getting higher and higher. However, injuries are still a permanent problem for many players. A chasm that can't be crossed.
Depressed, Stern wondered if it was time to adjust the rules. If there were a bunch of injuries like this every year, then the All-Star Game would be full of supporting roles. Who cares...
