I am so Accurate

Another thing is related to the 2005 rookie class.

Halfway through the season, the 2005 draft class has made a profit or a loss. At this time, we have an initial judgment.

There are many winners in this year's draft.

Marvin Williams, the top pick selected by the Bobcats, was ranked second in history and didn't have many opportunities to perform when he went to the Hawks. However, he got a lot of opportunities in Charlotte, averaging 14.3 points and 5.2 rebounds per game, second only to Jayla in scoring. De Wallace was second on the team.

Charlie Villanueva, who was selected by the Raptors, is, yes, the eyebrowless hero who competed with the UAE for the starting spot in history, averaging 13 points per game;

The Knicks selected Channing Frye, one of James' all-time greats, who averaged 12.3 points per game;

Nate Robinson, also selected by the Knicks, averaged 10.3 points per game and won this year's dunk king;

Of course, the biggest winners this year are the Bulls and Hornets.

The Hornets selected Deron, and Deron also started a career that was different from the Jazz period in history.

As soon as he arrived in the team, he was cultivated as a core player, and his pick-and-roll with West also flourished.

Although the Hornets have an average record, he averaged 15.9 points and 6.7 assists per game, which is much better than the historical data. He is also a strong contender for the best rookie.

Of course, the most promising Rookie of the Year is Chris Paul.

Paul played prosperously in Chicago, averaging 15.8 points per game, which is not much different from the historical average, but he averaged 8.8 assists per game.

The Bulls now have great hope of entering the playoffs, and Paul's voice is naturally the highest.

Some people may ask, why is there no second place Bogut?

The answer is that Bogut's overall performance was as mediocre as he was against the Bulls and Lakers before, averaging only 7.5 points and 6.5 rebounds per game.

However, after entering February, his performance has improved rapidly. As of February, he has averaged 12.3 points, 8.8 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game.

The Bucks' record has also improved significantly with his performance.

Of course, the most important thing is that he played an explosive game with Yi Jianlian in the recent game against the Bulls.

Yi Jianlian scored 19 points and 9 rebounds, and he also had 17 points and 12 rebounds, and helped the Bucks successfully complete their revenge.

This performance made Bogut a little carried away.

"He gets the biggest shout-out because he's on a better team and I should be the one to be the Rookie of the Year."

After saying during the draft that he should be the No. 1 pick, Bogut's remarks once again pushed himself to the forefront.

But slowly, some fans discovered that this seemed like a self-marketing method by Bogut.

Because in the selection of the best rookie, Paul and Deron are the most mentioned names.

After Bogut's remarks came out, many people noticed that he performed well in February and really paid some attention to him.

Sun Hao was speechless when he saw the news.

Because of Bogut's typical "three days without fighting, the whole thing will be broken"!

But the good news is that the Lakers will play against the Bucks again next week.

The two teams are in different divisions and have played each other twice in one season.

Last time he took over from Yi Jianlian and gave Bogut two consecutive blows. This time Bogut was so proud of Yi Jianlian that he had to "bring him back to his original form."

Because of that, it can be regarded as fulfilling what I said before, "I'll explode once I see it."

The Lakers' rotation has changed slightly recently. Phil Jackson has begun to use Payton and Sun Hao more in the starting backcourt.

Such an adjustment also means that Finley changes from starter to substitute.

Moreover, Phil Jackson intentionally trained new players in the second half of the season and gave Lou Williams and Zhu Fangyu some playing time. Finley's playing time was even less than before.

But these newcomers to the Lakers can really seize opportunities, not only Williams, but also Zhu Fangyu.

Although he hasn't scored yet, his performance in the limited time is remarkable.

This has to start with Kukoc.

This teammate of Sun Hao's in Dallas has made it clear this season that he is here to win the ring.

But if he was a pure bastard, the Lakers would have probably waived him.

Especially with so many high-quality players who have been bought out before, the Lakers can definitely find a replacement for him.

But he ended up staying on the team, not because his physical condition suddenly reached a level where he could play, but because of his role in training.

His game experience will be of great help to the Lakers' young players, including Walker, a similar type of forward swingman.

And he is happy to share those experiences, and Zhu Fangyu is one of the beneficiaries.

Time flies, and a week has passed in the blink of an eye. The Lakers have achieved a record of 3 wins and 1 loss in the past week and continue to make steady progress.

On this day, the Lakers went away to face the Bucks for their second game of the season.

At this point in the game, the competition for the playoffs is extremely fierce, especially for a team on the edge of the playoffs like the Bucks, the outcome of any game is very important.

So even if they face the Lakers, who massacred them before, the Bucks' goal is to strive for victory.

The Bradley Center was packed.

Although Milwaukee is a small city, and even their main stadium is still the old arena built in 1988, the enthusiasm of the fans here is not low.

All this is due to the Bucks' good team history. They won the championship in the third year after joining the NBA, and also reached the Eastern Conference finals several times in the following years. The team history is glorious.

Of course, in recent years, with the disintegration of the well-known "Three Musketeers", the team has fallen into a short reconstruction period.

However, within just two years of rebuilding, they have gained talented players like Reid and Bogut, and the fans are naturally in a good mood.

Especially Bogut, the No. 2 pick has performed extremely bravely recently, and they love his tough style of play, which makes fans even more enthusiastic about watching the game.

During the warm-up before the game, Bogut performed several dunks in succession.

Although the dunk is indeed not very exciting to watch, you can see that he is a little excited.

But he is not the only one who is excited. Zhu Fangyu of the Lakers is also very excited about shooting from the outside.

Anyone who has been holding back for most of the season will be like this when he gets a chance to play, let alone Zhu Fangyu's character.

After the pre-match warm-up, the entrance ceremony began, and the starters of both teams were introduced one after another.

For the Lakers, Payton, Sun Hao, Ariza, Walker and O'Neal.

For the Bucks, Hinrich, Reid, Bobby Simmons, Bogut, Magloire.

When the two teams met again after two months, the Lakers had undergone some changes, but the Bucks remained exactly the same.

Former No. 1 pick Joe Smith, who originally had high hopes from the management, could only sit on the bench after returning from injury.

This is where the competition in the NBA is cruel. For most NBA players, an injury will cause you to lose your starting job or even your job.

Of course, there are exceptions. For example, Mourning had some physical reactions today, and Jackson immediately arranged for him to rest.

This is special treatment from a Hall of Fame veteran, and Jackson is counting on him to make a big difference in the playoffs.

After the opening ceremony, the starting lineup of the two teams came on stage one after another.

Magloire moved the ball back to half court, giving the Bucks a chance to take the lead.

Hinrich held the ball past halftime, and the Bucks set up a double pick-and-roll at the free throw line in the frontcourt.

Reid used a cover to make a fake shot and then scored the ball. Bogut followed up the pick-and-roll and scored a layup.

The Bucks played smoothly in this round, showing the results of their season in front of everyone.

And I have to say that Stotts is a capable coach. He allowed Bogut, who is more mobile, to be the end point, giving the copycat version of the Twin Towers, which originally had little offensive ability, an offensive threat.

With this kind of tactical adjustment, it is reasonable for Bogut's performance to improve.

Sun Hao responded immediately by hitting a pick-and-roll three-pointer after running without the ball.

Letting Payton and Sun Hao start together means that Sun Hao will take on more scoring responsibilities on the offensive end.

This can also be seen from the offensive choices in the first round. In the past, when O'Neal was here, the Lakers would attack from the inside first.

The Bucks repeated their old tricks, and Bogut caught the ball again.

"boom!"

He took a big hit from O'Neal!

And it was so aggressive that he almost fainted.

Although O'Neal is now heavier and moves slowly, the defense failed to keep up in the first round.

But using the same move twice in front of him meant that he didn't take the big shark seriously at all.

Before the Bucks could react, Walker got the ball and moved forward for a fast break.

After successfully losing weight, his reflexes and speed have greatly improved. Now he runs like a small forward.

Payton and Sun Hao had a double-line fast break, and Walker showed off his reverse crotch before passing the ball to Payton.

Payton was more direct and threw the ball directly into the air.

Sun Hao rose into the air and smashed the ball towards the basket with one hand.

"Bang!"

A show from the Lob City!

There was a commotion on the sidelines.

They all say that the scars will forget the pain, but Sun Hao scored 81 points above their heads before. It was not just a cut and a scar.

To make an analogy, it can be said to be the pain of a broken arm!

That kind of pain will be remembered forever, so when Sun Hao scored 5 points in a row at the beginning, Stotts, not to mention the fans, stood on the sidelines.

Reid used the screen to get to the basket again. This time he didn't pass the ball again, but made a quick layup himself.

"Snapped!"

But the moment he took action, O'Neal stretched out his hand and was caught!

After O'Neal gained weight, his physical energy consumption was much faster than before, but this was just the start of the game. He was not very involved in the offensive end and was full of energy, but he was overwhelming on the defensive end.

The Lakers launched another defensive counterattack. This time Walker and Payton played a two-man game. Walker received the pass and scored a fast break layup.

Payton's starting effect was immediate. Whether it was position or fast break, the Lakers' offensive threat was greater than when Finley started.

2 to 7!

The venue of the game was changed from Los Angeles to Milwaukee, and the Bucks were getting along better than before. However, the situation remained unchanged, and the Bucks were still beaten just like the last time the two teams played against each other.

Although during the warm-up before the game, the Bucks were full of energy from top to bottom.

But in the face of absolute strength, those things are just clouds.

Because of the Mavericks' outstanding record, many people don't pay as much attention to the Lakers as they did at the beginning of the season.

But in fact, as the season progresses, veterans such as Mourning and Payton begin to truly find their game form, and the Lakers' performance becomes more and more stable.

Just like playing games, stability is the scariest thing.

In history, the Spurs have been able to remain a championship contending team for nearly 20 years because of that kind of stability.

After the first quarter, the score on the court was 16-30, and the Bucks trailed the Lakers by 14 points in a single quarter.

Sun Hao scored 5 points in a row at the beginning, but after one quarter he only scored 13 points.

That's it, the Bucks have been beaten so much that they don't have much temper.

No matter how hard they tried, one wave of attacks, two waves of counterattacks, and three waves of charges, they just couldn't win.

Stotts realized something was wrong with this game. As soon as the second quarter started, he fielded such a lineup:

Mo Williams, Hinrich, Bobby Simmons, Joe Smith, Bogut.

This lineup has three starters and two substitutes, obviously chasing points.

For the Lakers, Lou Williams, Christie, Zhu Fangyu, Walker, Anderson.

Phil Jackson still followed his playing style in the past few games and gave the newcomers more playing time.

Even tonight, he only let Finley play 4 minutes in the second half of the first quarter before replacing him.

The Lakers took the lead in the second quarter when Lou Williams passed Mo Williams' defense and quickly broke through for a layup.

However, a common problem among rookies is that they lack experience. Lewis did not notice Bogut, who was assisting in defense, and was blocked by Bogut after taking the shot.

On the next possession, Mo Williams' pull-up jump shot after a breakthrough missed.

Both teams have one Williams each, with the same surname. They also have one thing in common in their playing styles. When they get the ball, they just do it, and if they do it, they will most likely be tough.

However, Bogut quickly grabbed the offensive rebound, and after taking off the second time, he directly smashed the ball into the basket with one hand.

Without O'Neal or Mourning, against a jumping man like Anderson, Bogut's offense and defense were quite satisfying.

After the dunk, Bogut punched and roared, and the Wolf King looked extremely excited.

He lost his temper after being beaten by O'Neal in the first quarter, and now he finally vented his anger at himself.

But right away, the Lakers' newcomers showed why they got a chance to play.

Zhu Fangyu received a breakthrough pass from Lou Williams in the bottom corner and hit a three-pointer!

This is the first time he scored in his NBA career!

The goal sent the Lakers bench into a frenzy.

This ball is perfect in terms of release posture, follow-up action, shooting arc and result.

Before this, they probably never thought that besides Sun Hao, there was anyone else on the Lakers who could shoot three-pointers so beautifully.

"The three-point shot must be your Chinese tradition, just like Kung Fu."

O'Neal even smiled and talked to Sun Hao while stretching out his hands to show kung fu movements.

Sun Hao nodded seriously this time.

The Chinese team's fast-paced style of play in the last century required accurate shooting.

Regardless of the past, the Chinese team's three-point shooting at that time was comparable to South Korea in Asia.

The point that three points are one more than two points is also revealed at this time. The morale of the Lakers on the court is obviously better than that of the Bucks.

Reflected on the defensive end, the Lakers defended the Bucks for almost 24 seconds.

Hinrich's final three-pointer missed the basket, and the Lakers played a beautiful defense.

However, Bogut jumped ahead of Anderson and scored directly with a make-up dunk!

Mourning can't fight, and Bogut can do whatever he wants in the paint at this time!

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that after Bogut made up the deduction, he roared at Zhu Fangyu, who was late to help defend:

“Chinese people are rubbish!”

This sentence confused Zhu Fangyu.

It's not that he doesn't understand this sentence in English. He has been in the United States for more than half a year and can't speak it fluently, but he can still understand it.

It's that he didn't know that Bogut hated China, and he couldn't understand why Bogut shouted such words at him after making up the deduction.

"You fucking say it again!"

But after being stunned for a moment and reacting, he directly pointed at Bogut and yelled.

How could he endure his violent temper!

Of course Bogut didn't say it again. Zhu Fangyu understands English, but he doesn't understand Chinese!

However, he could guess from Zhu Fangyu's expression and movements that it was not a good thing. Zhu Fangyu was not Mo Ning, so he was not afraid.

Australians are very brave and aggressive. He rolled up his sleeves and was ready to fight Zhu Fangyu.

When Zhu Fangyu saw the blood all over his body and his head, he was ready to show off his Taizu Changquan.

However, the conflict between the two was under the eyes of everyone. Players and referees from both sides quickly intervened, and the brief conflict was quickly calmed down.

The game entered a technical timeout.

"That guy is inexplicable!"

Zhu Fangyu returned to the bench still looking unhappy.

"He was beaten too many times by A Lian and I, and he became unhappy with us."

Sun Hao did not say that Bogut was a vengeful person like when he explained to Yi Jianlian, but he used a very easy-to-understand reason.

And this reason is indeed why Bogut talks such trash.

Because he couldn't beat any of them, including Sun Hao, Yi Jianlian, and Yao Ming. If he caught Zhu Fangyu, he would naturally vent his anger if he had the chance.

"Street boy!"

Zhu Fangyu cursed.

I think he is easy to bully!

"Don't be impulsive. Just play your part. Your opportunity to play is hard-won. Don't ruin yourself because of a rubbish."

Sun Hao saw Zhu Fangyu's impulsiveness, as if he would repeat the brawl with Lebanon in the 2001 Asian Championships at any time, and reminded him.

This is also a very good reminder.

This is not a matter of cowardice or not, but Zhu Fangyu's situation is indeed different from Bogut's.

Although Bogut did not become the No. 1 pick like in history, he was still the No. 2 pick. The team's level of tolerance for him is different.

But Zhu Fangyu is a second-round pick, and he only gets the opportunity to play because of Jackson's rotation adjustment.

This is most likely Zhu Fangyu's only chance in the NBA. If he and Bogut really fight, Kupchak may be laid off.

Again, there are a bunch of veterans out there waiting to join the Lakers.

"Just pretend he just farted."

After hearing this, Zhu Fangyu nodded reluctantly.

After hearing this, Sun Hao smiled and patted Zhu Fangyu on the shoulder.

When he comes on the court later, he will take care of Bogut.

The saying that Chinese people are all rubbish is a serious map cannon.

After the technical timeout, Bogut and Zhu Fangyu each received a technical foul.

Phil Jackson did not substitute Zhu Fangyu.

Every coach has his own coaching style. Jackson is not the kind to be afraid of trouble. On the contrary, he will support his players when encountering this kind of thing.

The game continued on the court, Christie assisted, and Lou Williams hit a mid-range jumper.

Stotts blushed.

He made three starts in the second quarter, trying to catch up with the score in a time difference.

But after playing for almost two minutes, not only did they not catch up by a single point, but the Lakers further opened up the score!

Bogut leaned on Anderson with his back and asked for the ball in the low post. Hinrich lobbed the ball in, and Bogut hit Anderson with his back.

His back-up skills are excellent, and his left and right hooks are very stable, so he is full of confidence after starting to play from behind.

After turning around and bypassing Anderson, he used his strength to dunk directly.

There was nothing wrong with his offensive game, but it was obvious that the previous consecutive offensive rebounds made him underestimate Anderson's strength.

Although Anderson's defensive ability is average, he can't stand up to others and can jump. Bogut's hard attack plays into his heart.

He saw the right moment and jumped up to slap him from the side.

"boom!"

Before Bogut's ball even hit the basket, Anderson slapped him and flew him off the court!

There was an uproar.

Anderson has a long wingspan and his thin body, which makes the visual effect explosive.

Bogut was stunned for a while.

He had just been called for a technical foul, and his dunk was blocked when he turned around!

The mentality explodes!

The Bucks continued to serve sideline balls, and Mo Williams missed a three-pointer from the outside.

Anderson was confident after blocking one, leaping high to grab the defensive rebound.

The Lakers played a defensive counterattack, and Zhu Fangyu ran the ball very fast.

After Williams dribbled the ball past half court, he passed a long pass to Zhu Fangyu.

Another collaboration between two rookies from the Lakers!

Moreover, Zhu Fangyu held back his energy for this ball. After rushing to the inside, he directly jumped into the air and dunked the ball into the basket with both hands!

Zhu Fangyu scored 5 points at once!

"Whoa whoa!"

O'Neal marveled on the bench.

He may not know enough about Chinese players. In addition to three-pointers, Chinese players also dunk so fiercely!

Phil Jackson couldn't help laughing at this time, and stretched out his hand to rub the beard under his jaw.

His expectations for Zhu Fangyu were actually very low, but Zhu Fangyu's tough performance after the conflict made his expectations for the Chinese player significantly higher.

Having said that, he gave Zhu Fangyu a chance during the trial training at the beginning of the season because of Zhu Fangyu's character.

Bobby Simmons used Bogut's cover and still missed his three-point shot from the outside!

It's like this sometimes in basketball. The more you need to score, the more you miss the shot!

After seeing this, Stotts called Reed up in advance. At this time, a superstar is needed to break the scoring drought.

But at this moment, an unexpected scene suddenly happened on the field.

Anderson got another defensive rebound and turned to Walker. The Lakers were ready to launch a defensive counterattack.

Zhu Fangyu had tasted the sweetness before, and turned around and ran towards the front court after the ball.

This is the fastest mode for him to get 2k points.

With quick eyes and quick hands, Bogut grabbed Zhu Fangyu's shoulders.

This is a very dangerous and malicious move on the court.

Because the player is rushing forward and you pull the shoulder back, you are likely to break the person's shoulder blade.

To put it in a joking way, he almost invited Zhu Fangyu to drink Lafite.

Zhu Fangyu's reaction speed was quite fast. After feeling the pull, he did not rush forward anymore, but was pulled back and fell to the ground.

This action shows Zhu Fangyu's strong awareness of self-prevention on the court.

But this also corresponds to the saying: If you often walk by the river, your shoes will not get wet.

To expand on this: If you often fight on the field, how can you not have any precautions?

After falling, Zhu Fangyu stood up in the next second. Without saying anything, he waved and punched Bogut who turned around.

Before Bogut could react, he felt a heavy blow to the left side of his face.

That iron-hard fist hit him, making his head buzz!

Zhu Ba Iron Fist, I’m joking with you!

Bogut felt the pain and instinctively stretched out his hand to protect himself, but the next second, Zhu Fangyu's uppercut came from below.

A right hook followed by an uppercut, Zhu Fangyu is such a good trainer!

Even though Bogut leaned back, his chin was still scraped by the corner of his fist and he was almost dislocated!

This happened too suddenly, with players on both sides trying to break fast and defend against fast breaks.

After Zhu Fangyu finished the two punches, the team members from both sides rushed over and pulled the two people apart.

Bogut's face and jaw hurt at this time, and he looked at the fierce Zhu Fangyu over there as if he had seen a ghost.

Damn it, is this Chinese a ball player or a boxer? !

The game was forced to enter a technical timeout again.

Looking at Zhu Fangyu who was still angry, Sun Hao felt a little complicated at this time.

As he said before, he didn't want Zhu Fangyu to really have a big conflict with Bogut.

But Bogut's action just now was indeed too much. If it were him, he wouldn't be able to bear it, so he didn't think Zhu Fangyu was too impulsive.

But if this happens, Zhu Fangyu's future with the Lakers will become difficult to say.

This pause will last much longer than the previous one.

Previously, the Palace of Auburn Hills had greatly damaged the image of the league. Stern paid special attention to this area and imposed heavy penalties on fights.

Sure enough, after a lengthy video playback, the referee made a penalty.

Bogut received a first-level flagrant foul, and Zhu Fangyu received a second-level flagrant foul.

Because both of them had technical fouls before, this would mean that both of them were expelled from the field at the same time.

And for Zhu Fangyu, it is basically inevitable that the league will fine him and impose an additional suspension after the game.

The Bucks are already at the bottom, and if Bogut is ejected again, their disadvantage will be even greater.

But in fact, whether Bogut is present or not, the outcome has already been determined.

Bogut's early ejection only accelerated the process.

In the end, the Lakers were able to kill the Bucks on the road without any loss, and once again massacred the Bucks 113-86, completing the season sweep of their opponents.

Sun Hao's performance in the first quarter was mediocre, but after the conflict between Bogut and Zhu Fangyu, he exerted his strength.

After the final three quarters, he scored a game-high 41 points, allowing the Bucks fans at the scene to relive the "81-point night" two months ago.

Of course, neither Sun Hao's 41 points nor the final result of this game is the focus of this game.

In the post-game press conference, both the Bucks as the home team and the Lakers as the away team were asked about the conflict in the game.

Bucks head coach Stotts' choice is to avoid talking about it.

"I believe the league will investigate clearly."

This was his final answer.

When the Lakers came over, Sun Hao answered the question proactively.

"Fighting is a very bad thing, and no matter who it is, they must be punished by the league."

Sun Hao's first sentence sounded a bit like "just killing relatives for the sake of justice".

But this sentence sounds very much like foreshadowing.

Sure enough, after saying this, Sun Hao immediately made a turn.

"But I don't think Zhu's choice was wrong. The trash talk Bogut said at that time was not a personal attack, but it was better than a personal attack."

Sun Hao emphasized his tone when he said this.

Not everyone was at the scene, and the reporters in the audience looked at Sun Hao curiously.

"Bogut attacked our country, and I don't think anyone would allow anyone else to attack their country. That's inexcusable."

Sun Hao continued.

After he said this, the reporters below became restless.

Americans’ favorite movies are patriotic ones.

It is said that what a country lacks the most, it needs what it needs most. Unlike many Chinese people who are patriotic from the bottom of their hearts, the United States needs movie promotion.

So when I mention this, it resonates with many people.

This is called political correctness.

Jackson couldn't help but look sideways at this time.

He also heard the sentence "Chinese people are rubbish". He didn't think much when he heard it, but when Sun Hao said it, he felt it was too much.

He didn't even notice that he was "incited" by Sun Hao.

The reporter learned about Sun Hao's attitude, and then asked Phil Jackson his opinion on this matter.

"We will accept any punishment the league imposes, that is the punishment he deserves, but we will not impose additional penalties on him."

Jackson made a direct statement. How could he punish a patriotic player?

Sun Hao took a long breath after hearing this.

Although Jackson's words do not represent the final decision of the Lakers management, since he has spoken, the management will buy his account.

In other words, Jackson's words were equivalent to "saving" Zhu Fangyu.

At the end of the press conference, Sun Hao thanked Jackson after leaving the conference site.

"You don't need to thank me. Zhu and you are teammates of the national team. If the management really wants to do something, they will definitely ask for your opinion."

Jackson said with a smile.

Although Sun Hao has only helped the Lakers win a championship, his status and influence are already extremely huge, and it is impossible for the Lakers not to consider his opinions.

This is a thorough look!

"Although I think Zhu's method is too radical, the method is not implemented. What kind of opponent should be used to deal with what kind of method."

Jackson then added.

Sun Hao smiled and nodded.

Although Jackson is often mysterious and unpredictable, at least this incident shows that he is still very good to his players.

Then again, this may be one of the reasons why he can control a team with so many superstars.

After finishing talking to Jackson, Sun Hao returned to the locker room.

It was at this moment that he noticed that Finley's expression was a little lonely.

Speaking of which, what has troubled the Lakers the most recently is the "cowboy" who has been with him for the longest time.
