Chapter 1005 [Off-the-field Triangle Attack, Beneficial Butterfly Effect]

In January, the Suns lost four more games, 36-10, and the Thunder, who were slightly better than the 35-11, ranked first in the league.

In the final game on the 30th of this month, the Suns beat the Nets by 41 points at home.

Guo Xu blew up the spiritless role player Deron Williams, playing only 30 minutes and 11-of-15 shooting, 8-of-11 three-pointers, 2-of-2 free throws, and 32 points and 7 assists.

Thompson also had the upper hand against Kobe Bryant, scoring 23 points on 8-of-13 shooting, 5-of-9 three-pointers and 2-of-2 free throws.

The Suns made 20 three-pointers in the game, and the Nets only made three three-pointers in the game, two of which were shot by marginal small forward Telitovic after the final quarter went into garbage time, and he scored 10 points in the final quarter to keep the Nets from losing more than 50 points.

The Nets have a staggering 20-26 record and are in eighth place in the East and barely making the playoffs.

If it's in the West, the team that has achieved this kind of record in the middle of the game can basically start to swing, unless it is a team like the F4 Lakers in the parallel world that can do miracles.

The Lakers made horrific free throws in the second half, various body hair fouls by stars, and the number of free throws made by rival Jazz suddenly dropped to the bottom of the league, so that they created a miracle under the leadership of the referees to reach the playoffs, and were swept out of the first round, touching countless people.

Unfortunately, the Nets obviously won't get that treatment.

At the end of November last year, Gentry, who wanted Deron to be the core of the main blocking and pick-and-roll tactics, was fired, and the Nets signed Mike Brown, the "bread" who was cut by the Cavaliers.

Coach Brown, who has led the Cavaliers to the Finals many times, is past his prime, and he can't make the Nets work together or strengthen the team's defense, he's more of a puppet coach.

The three stars of the Nets have gone crazy and entered a state of selflessness of "I love to play back, and playing back makes me happy". They also played an alternative "triangle offense" off the court, with Howard, Delon, and Kobe Bryant habitually bickering at press conferences.

Delon and Howard also have contradictions, he wants to play with Howard, but he can't make sense of each other. He experienced the pain of the best player in the country, Mitsui Shou, when he encountered the blind inside lineman Akagi Goken.

Howard, who was physically energetic, experienced the pain of Sakuragi Hanamichi being stolen from the limelight by Rukawa Kaede and watching Rukawa Kaede shoot wildly.

Kobe Bryant experienced the pain of averaging only 15 shots per game, and he hasn't been so miserable since 1998.

Brown is very relaxed, anyway, the contract is signed, and there are liquidated damages for being fired, and the players are disobedient and consumed.

If Howard and Pau Gasol partner on the inside, the team's tactics can be richer, and they can occasionally play inside passes. Howard, who partnered with Blatch, Jamison, and Evans, could only go head-to-head, and the defense of those three was poor.

Howard's most annoying thing is Evans, who can't do well as a blue-collar defender, doesn't change guards aggressively, and always shrinks near the box to grab rebounds. Does Howard need help? HIS 203CM HEIGHT IS ALSO VERY BAD AT SHOOTING FROM THE RESTRICTED AREA.

Spark Happy Beast played 35 minutes, and his stats dropped to 16.3 points, 12.5 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.1 steals and 2.4 blocks, averaging only 10.4 shots per game.

He's going crazy, shooting 58% from the field, looking at the 43% and 44% shooting of Kobe Bryant and Pierce's crazy shots.

The Suns didn't lose again before the star weekend in February, and had a relatively easy schedule, with the only challenge being the two games against the Thunder, both of which they won.

At home, Guo Xu worked hard, scoring 30 points and 11 assists, and the team easily won by 14 points.

When he played against the Thunder again on February 14, Guo Xu was more degenerate, only scoring 11 points and 10 assists, with a shooting rate of only 40% and not many shots.

However, the Suns won more easily than they played, playing four minutes in the final quarter and going into garbage time. The Thunder players were collectively sluggish, with only two players scoring in double figures.

Durant finished with 40 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks on 50% shooting. Westbrook shot 7-of-19, 0-of-2 from three-point range and 7-of-8 from the free-throw line to finish with 21 points, five rebounds and 10 assists on 36.8 percent shooting.

Guo Xu lazily put Wei Shao jump shot, and he still didn't have a shooting percentage.

After this game, it was the All-Star Weekend, even though Guo Xu only averaged 18.3 points, 2.4 rebounds, 14.1 assists and 1.5 steals per game, which was obviously a lazy and healthy style of play, he was still elected the vote king.

The other four starters in the West are Chris Paul, Durant, Griffin, Serge Ibaka.

That's how the butterfly effect in Ibaka's favor happened, and he turned out to be the starting point in the West. He averaged 32.9 minutes per game in the mid-term period, scoring 15 points, 8.6 rebounds, 1 assist, 0.5 steals and 3.2 blocks while shooting 53.3% from the field and 36.3% from three-point range, averaging 0.6 shots per game.

After Gasol Jr. left, the physically outstanding Ibaka took on more offensive tasks, and with the fact that he was often able to send domineering dunks and big hats, he gained a large number of fans.

There aren't a few star insiders left in the West this year. Gasol Jr. was injured soon after joining the Grizzlies this season and missed the All-Star draft. The Lakers' Bogut was reimbursed for another injury, shooting only 45% from the field, and became a blue-collar man with glass.

The Thunder's Horford is the third leader of the team, averaging 14.2 points, 9.6 rebounds and 3 assists per game, and his statistics and popularity are not as good as Ibaka.

This season, the NBA changed the voting rules for the All-Star Game, eliminating the voting for the center position and creating three forward players instead. Such a decision means that the All-Star vote for the new NBA season will be a combination of "3 forward players + 2 guard players".

"This change makes a lot of sense." Vice President Jackson explained why the NBA changed the rules of All-Star voting, "We found that the center was the only one person to be the starter in the All-Star vote, and the concept of center sounded a little outdated. ”

According to Jackson, after the rule change, if there are two really good centers in a given year, then the fans can pick them both, and they will all be selected as the final All-Star starters, which is not possible under the original rules.

If it weren't for the abolition of the center selection, Ibaka would certainly not be able to compete with Griffin and Durant as a power forward, and the rules made him a starter with 570,000 votes, slightly better than Bosh's 520,000 votes.

Western Conference Bench Seven: Westbrook, Harden, Curry, Brook Lopez, Bosh, Duncan, Aldridge.

After Gasol Jr. was injured, the Grizzlies had a mediocre record, and Gasol Jr. was not selected as an All-Star. There are not many players who are good in Western Data, and the only ones who can be called "missing pearls" are Pau Gasol and Ellis.

Curry was selected for the first time in his career, averaging 23 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists per game in the mid-term period, shooting 46.2% from the field, 45.3% from three-point range, and 90% from the free-throw line. His true shooting percentage is as high as 61%, and his statistics and scoring efficiency are overwhelming Kobe Bryant in an all-round way, but his popularity can only rank third among Western defenders and he is not in the starting lineup.

Lopez averaged 19.3 points and 6.8 rebounds in 30 minutes per game, and also proved his strength and efficiency.

Roy and Thompson shared the number of shots, and Thomas Jr., the sixth man off the bench, also shared some of the ball, resulting in the two swingmen's average stats, averaging 15.2 and 15.7 points per game, and failing to make the All-Star Game.

The starting five in the East: Rajon Rondo, Wade, James, Stoudamire, Howard.

Subs seven: Jrue Holiday, David Lee, Paul George, Millsap, Carmelo Anthony, Joakim Noah, J.R. Smith.

The Knicks' J.R. Smith was also an All-Star because of Gallinari's injury, and he got a lot of shots, averaging 19 points, 5.6 rebounds and 3 assists per game in the mid-game.

However, Smith is in a contract year, and if the Knicks want to keep him in the summer, they must offer a high salary......
