I am so Accurate

Chapter 240: The Gods Come Down to Earth, The King Returns

The Mavericks practiced daily, and Sabonis showed everyone what he was capable of.

Halfway through the training, Sun Hao felt that it was necessary to discuss the topic of "what would happen if Sabonis entered the NBA when he was young".

Because Sabonis is too comprehensive, he basically has the skills of big men, he moves fast, has rich experience, and can even give you a three-pointer occasionally.

If he entered the NBA at a young age, he has the opportunity to become a legend at the center position like O'Neal.

Old Nelson made the best use of everything, half of the training, and the next half of the training, allowing Sabonis to play the role of O'Neal.

This is a very common thing in NBA teams.

As we all know, McGrady was pulled by the Spurs to play the role of James in training at the end of his career.

It's just that Sabonis is indeed old, without O'Neal's explosive power, and the training effect is not particularly good.

"How's the Monk thing going?"

Old Nelson turned to ask about young Nelson at this time.

"If all goes well, I will be able to come to Dallas by the end of this month."

"So fast?"

Old Nelson was a little surprised.

The job of the general manager is better than his own son.

After the All-Star break, the Mavericks' record has had some ups and downs.

Sabonis' injury still had a relatively big impact on him. In the end, the old Nelson simply asked him to take a truce to recuperate, and gave the opportunity to Wang Zhizhi and Collins.

With the opportunity to play, the two have their own performances. From a long-term perspective, it is also a good thing for the Mavericks.

And at this time, Sun Hao also knew from Nelson that Battelle was coming to the Mavericks.

He was still a little surprised by the news. In history, Battelle went to the Nuggets.

It seems that his appearance has changed a lot.

But it's reasonable to think about it carefully. The Mavericks themselves are interested in Chinese players.

As for Battelle, he was able to go to the Nuggets in history not because he chose the Nuggets, but because the Nuggets chose him.

If the Mavericks want to get him, as long as they can get in touch, it must be easy to get.

Because from Battelle's point of view, there is no reason to refuse to play with teammates of the national team when he is abroad?

And after knowing that Battelle is going to join, he also knows the thinking of the Mavericks this season.

The Mavericks can play center now, including LaFrentz, Sabonis, Battelle, Collins, and Wang Zhizhi who can also play at the fifth position. Five people in a team can play center!

This is to play wheel battle with O'Neill!

At the end of February, Sun Hao met Battelle in the locker room.

Battelle looked a little dull, but when he really met Sun Hao and Wang Zhizhi, he talked a lot.

They helped the Chinese team win the Asian Championship together in Shanghai, and they can be regarded as comrades-in-arms who have fought in Kangdao.

Old Nelson couldn't wait, so he asked Battelle to play the role of O'Neal during training.

Compared with Sabonis, Battelle, who is at the peak of his body, is obviously closer to O'Neal.

And something unexpected happened during the training.

Collins, a muscular man, wanted to prevent Battelle from scoring after losing his position on defense, but Battelle didn't move much when he hung up.

"What does this guy usually eat?"

This scene stunned Old Nelson.

Although Collins's size can't hold O'Neill, he is also a serious black and tough.

Battelle's static power is not only strong, but also a bit terrifying.

"I think in terms of static strength alone, there's no one in this league better than Shaq."

After watching the training, Old Nelson looked happy.

What he heard was different from what he saw. He now feels that the team has earned the signing.

On the second day after Battelle came to Dallas, the Mavericks ushered in a game against the Pacers.

This is also Battelle's NBA debut.

Three Chinese players gathered in the first team, and the attention of this game can be imagined.

The overall strength of the Mavericks is better than that of the Pacers, and they took the initiative at the beginning.

However, Jr. O'Neal performed well on the Pacers, whether facing LaFrentz or Sabonis, he played handily.

After the first quarter, the score was 32 to 27, and the Mavericks only led by 5 points.

Battelle got the chance to play at the beginning of the second quarter.

His appearance also cheered domestic fans.

Before last season, there was not a single Chinese player in the NBA.

But after this moment, 4 Chinese players have already appeared in the NBA.

Battelle's advantage is his strength, but his weakness is his slow movement speed.

The Pacers themselves have a slow offensive rhythm, which allows his weaknesses to be covered up and his strengths to be magnified.

And when the old Nelson was surprised, Battelle's back-turning skills under the basket were very good, he was not only a defensive engineer!

This allowed Nelson Sr. to keep him on the court for more time.

Then, another surprise came.

After the transition period from the bench, the main players of both sides returned, but Battelle was still left on the court.

As a result, Jermaine O'Neal, who was in hot form before, was directly deflated against Battelle inside!

O'Neal's technical characteristics are a bit similar to Garnett's. He has a top-notch body, but his style of play is outside.

His strongest move is a back turn layup, or a pull-back step-up jumper.

Before facing LaFrentz or Sabonis, he could switch freely.

But when encountering Battelle, there is basically no way to turn around to the basket. Battelle has become a wall in front of him, and he can only take a step back!

This makes his offensive efficiency greatly reduced.

The Mavericks also took advantage of the situation and played a wave of climax, pulling the score away.

But after the fight, Battelle's weakness was also exposed.

His speed is really too slow, and he was still in his own half after the fast break.

Including retreating, he will always be the last to return to the half.

But the price for the Mavericks to sign him is also low. With the previous performances, what bicycle is needed.

In the end, the Mavericks won a big victory at home.

Battelle got a full 15 minutes of playing time in his NBA debut. He scored 5 points and 6 rebounds, and there were many contributions that could not be reflected in the defensive data.

When the locker room was summed up after the game, Nelson even praised him by name.

"He brings toughness to us."

This is the old Nelson's evaluation.

This is also a very good evaluation.

Because of the style of play, the Mavericks are always said to be soft by the media.

But Battelle's body and style of play full of male hormones successfully made up for this link.

Time flies, and it is mid-April in a blink of an eye.

The second season of Sun Hao's NBA career is coming to an end.

Before the All-Star break, he successfully upgraded the long-distance marksman to the Hall of Fame.

After the All-Star break, he also managed to improve his mid-range shooting to the silver level, and his unlimited range is also very close to the Hall of Fame level.

Then pull out his attribute list to see.

Height: 190cm; Weight: 83kg

Strength: 85; Speed: 80; Agility: 75; Bounce: 77; Physical Fitness: 86; Ball Quotient: 93

Ball handling: 84; passing: 61; dunks: 66; layups: 81; mid-range: 71; three-pointers: 90

Defense: 75; Blocks: 62; Steals: 78; Rebounds: 62;

Compared with a year ago, his height has grown to 1.90 meters, and various attributes have also improved, including his dunks and defense.

Of course, the most obvious improvement is his mid-range and three-pointers.

If his style of play last season was very Curry, this season has been closer to Durant.

And as he played more games, he accumulated more badges.

Bronze Badge: Aggressive, Veteran Dribbler;

Silver Badge: Mid-range sharpshooter, catch scorer, iron wall, pick-and-roll master, pick-and-roll dodger, fast break finisher, first step expert;

Gold Badge: Unlimited shooting range, Basketball IQ;

Hall of Fame Badge: Marksman from a distance;

Other Badges: Man of Glory

Halo: Rookie of the Year (May 2, 2001 - May 2, 2002)

Court fetters: Nowitzki, Nash, Yi Jianlian, Eisley;

The NBA's regular season is also coming to an end at this time, and the competition for the playoffs and rankings has entered a fierce battle.

And, like last year, the teams in the West are pretty close.

Especially among the top four, in addition to the Kings who have already locked in the league's first place, there is a situation where the Lakers, Mavericks and Spurs have the same record.

This makes the final ranking full of suspense.

And in it, the second and third positions in the West are where no one wants to go.

The ranking of the second half has been determined, the Timberwolves ranked sixth, and the Trail Blazers ranked seventh.

The Trail Blazers don't need much. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and whoever beats will suffer.

There is also the Timberwolves. Although their record has dropped, their zone defense is still the best in the league.

It is against this background that the teams were in a variety of situations on the last day.

The Spurs played the Warriors, and Popovich let all five starters truce, and all of them were on the bench.

As a result, the top four teams in the regular season in the Western Conference lost to the bottom-ranked Warriors in the Western Conference by a big score.

Of course, like last year, this behavior has also been complained by many teams.

This is a joke about the regular season!

But Popovich miscalculated in the end this time, because the Lakers lost to the Wizards over there!

This is not the Lakers play.

The Lakers never pick their opponents in the playoffs. They must have a higher record, the better.

But in this game, I don't know who pressed the switch of Jordan's "god descending to earth".

The old hooligan scored 51 points in this game, setting a new record for his Wizards career in a single game!

Moreover, Jordan scored 50+ at the age of 39, which also broke the NBA's 50+ age record!

It's incredible!

But if you're a Wizards fan, you don't think it's too strange to pull the timeline back to Jordan's performance after his comeback in March.

Before the All-Star Game, Jordan only scored 40+ once.

But after his comeback, he has scored 3 times, including a back-to-back 40+.

There's no such thing as getting older and paying back loans to God, and Jordan, 39, tells people why he's called an old rascal.

Sun Hao watched the live broadcast. After watching it, he felt that everyone, including himself, underestimated Jordan in the Wizards period.

Age and injuries limit Jordan's durability, but they don't limit his short-term explosive ability.

But having said that, these data have actually been done by Jordan in the Wizards period in history.

The difference is that Jordan fought alone at that time, fighting until the season was reimbursed in order to bring the team into the playoffs.

But now, the existence of Yao Ming, coupled with the addition of Mobley, allows him to rest assured that he will recover from his injuries in advance.

And when he was away, the Wizards' record was also very stable. Not only could he recover from his injuries in advance, but he could also rest assured and boldly recover from his injuries.

As a result, Jordan staged a series of good shows such as The Return of the King and the Descending of the Gods, leaving the word "feeling" behind.

The nickname of the God of Basketball is not derived from feelings.

However, this game is not just Jordan's 50+.

On the Lakers side, the playoffs are approaching, and they are fighting for the playoffs. The OK combination has shown their best form.

O'Neal scored 32 points and 20 rebounds, Kobe Bryant scored 38 points, and the two scored 70 points together!

Even if Jordan scored 50+, this game has reached the last moment.

The fact that the Wizards can win has something to do with Yao Ming and Mobley.

In Yao Ming's final defensive round, he gave O'Neal three shots in one round, and the Wizards fans at home were dumbfounded.

Mobley received a point from Jordan at the last moment and hit a deadly three-pointer, which ended the game.

The rest of the Wizards grew in Jordan's absence.

This Wizards team has a lot to do in the East!

The Lakers dropped directly to fourth after losing, and the Mavericks ranked third because of the win-loss relationship.

With the end of the last day of the game, the final rankings of the East and West will also be released.

In the East, the Celtics are at the top of the list.

Although the record is a little worse than the Kings, Carlisle has already aimed for the best head coach.

Ranked second is the Nets.

The addition of Kidd really helped this team achieve a big turnaround. They improved from 26 wins to 52 wins.

However, Kidd's Chinese is probably taught by the physical education teacher.

Because this situation is called 180° turning over, not 360°, this 360° is equal to not moving.

The Wizards are third.

The joining of Yao Ming and Mobley allowed Jordan to avoid being reimbursed for the season, and also made their fate completely different from that in history.

The Pistons are fourth.

To talk about a turnaround, the Pistons also made a big turnaround with the Nets.

Ben Wallace is undoubtedly the team's biggest gain.

He averaged 7.6 points, 13 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 3.5 blocks per game this season.

If he missed the best defensive player competition last season because of the team's record, he has become an absolute favorite this season.

The fifth to eighth teams are the Magic, 76ers, Raptors, and Pacers.

But at this time, I have to mention the unlucky Hornets.

Because of the division system, they could have ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference, but they were abruptly squeezed to ninth in the Eastern Conference and missed the playoffs.

Charlotte fans almost spit out the league.

What's more, the mayor who started to criticize Charlotte for his inaction, let the team move out of this troubled city earlier.

Sometimes you really don't understand the American way of thinking.

Just like the big parades that appeared in history because of George Floyd, when their mayor said that the police were not effective in suppressing them, the police could dance square dances with the parading citizens.

The Eastern Conference is ranked, and the first-round matchup is also released.

Celtics VS Pacers, Nets VS Raptors, Wizards VS 76ers, Pistons VS Magic.

Among these four teams, the last two teams are absolutely interesting.

The playoff encounter between Jordan and Iverson, McGrady's another playoff trip.

If it is changed to the future, this will be the place where the traffic is concentrated and exploded.

On the west side, the rankings from 1 to 8 are the Kings, Spurs, Mavericks, Lakers, Supersonics, Timberwolves, Trail Blazers, and Jazz.

After the ranking is determined, the confrontation on the west side is also determined.

It's not that enemies don't get together, the Mavericks' opponent in the first round of the series is the Timberwolves.
