Michael Reed was successfully elected as the best rookie and completed the counterattack of the low-pick rookie, his average of 15 points per game was the highest among rookies, and his three-point shooting percentage and three-point shooting points were the first among rookies.
The Raptors occupied two spots in the All-Rookie team, and Mark Jackson averaged 10.2 points and six rebounds per game. During Brad Miller's truce, he was given a lot of opportunities to perform.
As a famous glass man in Yang Rui's previous life, Jackson has remained healthy this year, playing a full 82 regular season games, which is a big surprise for the Raptors.
The other three on the rookie roster are Magic small forward Mike Miller, Nets power forward Kenyon Martin, and Clippers forward Darius Myers.
The Most Improved Player award was won by the Kings' Peja Stojakovic, who progressed from averaging 11.9 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game to averaging 20.4 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game.
Peja is the Kings' No. 2 scorer, shooting 47 percent from the field and 40 percent from three-point range.
The 76ers won multiple awards, with guard Aaron McGee winning the Sixth Man of the Year, Mutombo winning the Defensive Player of the Year, Larry Brown winning the Coach of the Year and Iverson winning the regular season MVP.
The record is not advantageous, missing 11 games, Iverson still won the award, and there is no change from Yang Rui's previous life. Tim Duncan was hurt by 10,000 points in his heart, but not many fans questioned it, because Duncan's number of fans is not comparable to Iverson!
The best defensive team, the first team is full of acquaintances, Duncan, Garnett, Mutombo, Kidd, Payton.
The second team, the Lakers' "OK Combination", was selected together, the Knicks' Ben Wallace and Bruce Bowen were selected, and the Kings' Doug Christie was selected for the first time.
Christie's defense was recognized last season, and the Kings' improvement this season is directly related to him.
Bowen's selection is bad news for the Knicks, as he's a contract year, and he's sure to be worth more in the summer, and there will be teams poaching people. The Knicks now have the highest salary in the league, and it will be difficult to keep him on a big contract, and they will have to prepare for the extension of Ben Wallace.
First Team of the Year: Iverson, Carter, Webb, Duncan, O'Neal.
Second team: Kidd, Kobe, Maddy, Garnett, Mutombo.
Team three: Payton, Ray Allen, O'Neal Jr., Malone, David Robinson.
Being named to the All-NBA team is a testament to Carter's prowess, averaging 24.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.1 blocks in 35.4 minutes per game. He combined with a career-high number of assists, averaging just 18.1 shots per game and 6.4 free throws. He's one of the best in efficiency and can drive the team even more.
If Carter averages 25.5 shots per game like Iverson, he will definitely compete for the scoring title, but it is difficult for his teammates to score double-doubles, and the newcomer will not be able to develop. Mark Jackson and Reed would fall into the shoes of Tim Thomas and Larry Hughes.
Yang Rui did not enter the top three in the best coach selection, and he was a soy sauce player. The NBA's selection system can't allow one person to win too many awards, and the best coaches in NBA history are Don Nelson, Pat Riley three times each, and Popovich not at the moment.
Yang Rui discussed with the assistant coaches how to play next for a day, and without O'Neill Jr., there were only two prongs left in the trident.
Others can't replace O'Neal Jr.'s role, Jackson has limited offensive ability with the ball, relies on teammates to assist, and his mid-range shooting is not as accurate as O'Neal Jr.'s, so he can't play tough games.
Brad Miller played on the perimeter, scoring less than O'Neal Jr., protecting the rim and lacking deterrence in the box.
In the fourth game, the Raptors used pseudo joint defense on the defensive end, Van Gundy had a way to crack it, Joe Smith and Moore, two big men who could shoot and cut quickly, started and pulled out to block and dismantle.
Guards Lynch Hunter and Alan Houston ran to catch the ball and shoot from the perimeter, making room for Stackhouse to attack with the ball.
Stackhouse averaged only 23.2 points, 3.8 rebounds and 5 assists per game this season because of Houston's share of the ball, unlike Yang Rui's previous life, which averaged nearly 30 points per game. But he has the ability and the technology is very comprehensive.
This Stark House felt hot and powerful. His style of play is very simple, break through the strong attack, or make a one-step pull-up jump shot, and pull a three-point from the perimeter. By stepping back and changing direction, he can get space to shoot.
Carter is mainly responsible for defensive power forwards, and those who are good at feints are still swaying, and he was quickly fouled three times in the first half.
Without O'Neal Jr., Carter fell into foul trouble again and went to rest, and the Raptors had to rely on Boykins to attack with the ball. In the whole game, the Raptors only led once in the first quarter, fell behind the whole game, struggled to catch up, and lost the game 83-97.
Oakley came off the bench and was still rough defensively, making Mark Jackson and Willis very annoying. Jerome was arranged by Yang Rui to be a cold bench, and his defense and dismantling were too poor. Both Pistons-Hunter and Houston are good at running, catching, and shooting, and they can't use him at all.
Back in Toronto in Game 5, Houston pumped and shot 11-of-18 from the field, 7-of-12 from three-point range, and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line, finishing with 31 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists.
Stackhouse scored 17 points on modest shooting, but six of those points came in the final quarter.
Lynch Hunt also made four three-pointers and finished with 12 points in the game. Joe Smith and Collis Williams also scored in double figures, and the role players turned on.
The two teams were deadlocked until the last minute, Houston's key three-pointer took the lead, and Carter executed the final attack, and the right corner made a sharp stop to shoot, and deflected the basket under the interference of Collis.
The Pistons tied the overall score at 2-3, and at this time, some media began to analyze the possibility of the Pistons coming back from 0-3 down. Because the next game is a home game, the Auburn Hills Palace is a famous devil's home court, and it is likely to be dragged into a tie-break.
The Canadian media have also expressed concern about the prospects of the Raptors, whose defense has noticeably deteriorated.
On May 11, Yang Rui practiced more, and the content of the practice was the combination of two towers, "elevator-type block and dismantling".
In the two games, Yang Rui understood that Jumaine Jones was not a qualified No. 4 starter, he couldn't let go of both offensive and defensive ends, and when he attacked, he stood still and waited for opportunities, and when he defended, he was decent and rarely helped defend. The opponent didn't attack from his side, but wanted to foul Miller.
Once Miller was plagued by fouls and his playing time was shortened, the Raptors' ball didn't work as well.
Seeing Van Gundy's thoughts, Yang Rui sent the twin towers, Miller and the veteran Willis partnered, although the movement speed slowed down, Willis has a lot of experience in the game and knows how to use technique to make up for the lack of physical fitness.
The effect of this adjustment in the fifth game is obvious, no matter which side is blocked, it is just the guard facing a big man, the two go out to interfere when they switch to Houston, chase the defense on the outside, put the Pistons on the inside to shoot, and strictly guard against the double guns on the outside.
Joe Smith didn't feel anything in this game, and several good shots missed the basket, and the more he missed the shot, the more the Raptors formation dared to shrink boldly.
On the offensive end, the Raptors' elevator coordination was blown a few screen fouls by the referee, but it also created a lot of good opportunities, and Reed, Carter, and Curry all threw away.
Curry, in particular, has been in a state of "playing dead" since entering the playoffs, with few opportunities to play and few shots. In the key game, he was powerful, shooting 4 of 6 three-pointers, and also made a mid-range shot, scoring 14 points, giving enough support to the core players. His two key three-pointers in the final quarter suppressed the Pistons' momentum of chasing points.
In the final minute, Halprin grabbed a key frontcourt rebound and assisted Reed on a three-pointer from the bottom corner to widen the margin to 10 points and seal the win.
In the end, 101-94, the Raptors advanced to the Eastern Conference finals 4-2.
At the post-game press conference, Yang Rui said: "The Raptors players have the last laugh with perseverance, although there are two fewer stars, we will not be so easily reversed." ”
