Chapter 847 The rapid growth of the Sword Immortal Team 【Subscription】
The All-Star Game in February 2006 was held on time in Houston. This year's All-Star Game still had nothing to do with the Swordsman.
After a wave of winning streaks at the beginning of the season, their record has been ups and downs, with wins and losses, but at this time of the season, they are still ranked sixth in the Eastern Conference. Entering the playoffs in his second season!
However, they still don't have any player selected as an All-Star.
Whether it is the second-year Howard, or the first-year Paul, and this year's All-Star Game is missing.
But both of them were selected for the All-Star Rookie Game "One-One-Three", one for the 1st grade and one for the 2nd grade, and they both became the two brightest people in this rookie game!
Paul scored 21 points and 14 assists, leading the first-year team to catch up with the second-year team, but in the end, he lost to Howard, who scored a game-high 31 points and 18 rebounds. Howard took the MVP of the rookie game.
In any case, the All-Star Tour of the Sword Immortals was quite successful, and the two young men, Paul and Howard, have been recognized by the entire league, and almost everyone felt that even with only these two people, The Sword Immortal team can become a tyrant!
The two of them will definitely become the star of the league's facade in the future!
Not to mention that the Sword Immortal Team has already built a group of average strength around them, which can be called a terrifying lineup.
At this point in the season, almost all teams have seen the strength of the Sword Immortals. Maybe they are only the sixth in the Eastern Conference, but they rely on a second-year and a rookie!
The ghost knows what horror level they can play after 3 years!
Not to mention that they still have several incomparably high-quality draft picks in their hands, which are all real high-probability lottery picks!
Several team management who have been against Lin Long for a long time have scolded in their respective offices!
This bastard, retired and still so crazy?
2 drafts, will the team be formed?
Really fucked up!
The fear of the teams in the league and the starting attention gradually made the Jianxian team's record drop further in the remaining two months of the season. They failed to keep the sixth place in the Eastern Conference and slipped all the way to the eighth position in the Eastern Conference, stuck on the edge. , with a record of 43 wins and 39 losses, barely entered the playoffs.
However, the regular season of the Sword Fairy team this year can still be regarded as a success!
Although Chris Paul, who won this year's Rookie of the Year trophy, is only a rookie, his already incomparably competitive character and Peyton's guidance and support have already become the leader of the team even in his first year. This season, he averaged 16 points, 8 assists and 2 steals per game. He is the team's assists king and steals king.
Then there is last year's No. 1 pick, Dwight Howard, who has been promoted to the league's first-class insider. He averaged 18 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks per game this season. The mentality of always being like a child makes him not very suitable to be the real leader of a team, but fortunately, the Swordsman team has Paul and Payton.
Howard, as the team's second-leading scorer and top scorer, still played very happily.
The third most important figure in the team is Gerald Wallace. He has averaged 15 points, 7 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 1.5 blocks per game this season. He is the most important single defense arrow on the defensive end of the team. The opponent's number one perimeter scoring point is all handled by him!
The reason I say almost every game is because when the opponent's number one perimeter scorer is the point guard, that person is handed over to the faster, lower center of gravity Tony Allen, both of whom are also in charge. Selected to the Defensive Team of the Year Second Team this season!
The two of them are paired with Howard and Paul, and the defensive capabilities of the four are more terrifying than the other. This is one of the reasons for the rise of the Sword Immortals this season. They rely on defense! Under Carlisle's training, the Sword Immortals lost an average of With only 83 points, it is the third best in the league, second only to the Pistons and the Spurs. …
And everyone believed that if their starter wasn't the Radmanovic who only excels at 3-pointers and throws really well, their defense would be even better!
They are already the top defensive team in the league, they are just a reliable and stable scoring point!
Howard lacks the ability to attack independently and his free throws are too poor. Although Paul's speed, skills and shooting are impeccable, his height of 183 cm makes it difficult for him to truly become a stable scorer at that critical moment!
It is also this shortcoming of 3.4 that made the Sword Immortals lose 3:1 to the Detroit Pistons, the current overlord of the Eastern Division, in the first round.
But even though they lost the game and didn't complete Black 8, everyone could see that...
The take-off of the Sword Immortals could come at any time, maybe even, just next season!
After all, they will have a full four first-round picks next season, two of which belong to the Knicks and the Blazers, which are sure to be lottery picks.
Because these two teams failed to enter the playoffs! As for the final ranking, we have to see the luck of the Jianxian team.
