Legend of Yi Emperor Rebirth

Chapter 110: Before the playoffs

  The regular season officially ended, and the Bucks finally returned to the playoffs after a year of sixth place in the regular season.

And their opponents in the first round of the playoffs still have a lot of fate with them. It is the Orlando Magic. The dark horse at the beginning of the season finally entered the playoffs with a third place in the Eastern Conference. They are ranked in front of them. The absolute king of the season, the Boston Celtics, and the top powerhouse Detroit Pistons who have reached the Eastern Conference finals for five consecutive years.

   Orlando is just behind their two teams, and also squeezed the Cavaliers with "Little Emperor" LeBron under him. I have to say that the strength of this Magic team is absolutely top-notch.

More importantly, in terms of style, the Bucks have no obvious advantage over the Magic. Well, Yi Jianlian may be considered one, but as a rookie, it is easy for him to play against the more intense playoffs for the first time. In the event of an unsuitable situation, it is still uncertain how much discount the regular season performance will be.

   "Maybe, I can't even get 10 points!"

   After the playoffs came out, some American netizens made a hot comment in the comments below. As always, I will not be optimistic about Yi Jianlian.

   Anyway, since this season, I have been slapped so many times, even if I get slapped again, I'm used to it!

   What if you succeed once?

   I can add one more sentence at that time: Look, I've already said it!

   So Yi Jianlian chose to ignore it and take practical actions to break these doubts.

It’s just that it’s useless for him to ignore it. ESPN seems to be very interested in this topic, and launched a round table meeting specifically for this. Not long ago, they just discussed "Whether the Bucks do not change when the Bucks are leading by a big score. Topics such as "violating the spirit of sports", "Who is more qualified to win the best rookie, Yi Jianlian or Durant".

   I want to say that these experts are really idle, and everything can be discussed as if they were real!

   Yi Jianlian believes that if they are given a lump of shit, they can still judge the health and temperament of the person who has **** based on the shape and taste of the shit.

   is blowing anyway! If you don’t know how to blow, then what an expert!

   And Yi Jianlian is like ordering a VIP from them, but if there is a bit of trouble, it will inevitably cause this group of experts to start a wave of discussion.

   The theme this time is naturally "Can Yi Jianlian play the regular season performance in the playoffs!"

   I think it can, Barabara...

   I don’t think so, puff puff puff...

  Yi Jianlian watched the replay, and he didn't read the opinions of the experts in the middle. He went straight to the last to see the votes, okay! This group of guys are really ruthless, there are five people in total, and only one believes him.

   This person is no one else, but Max Pierce.

  As Yi Bian, and unswervingly Yi Bian, he has always been full of confidence in Yi Jianlian.

  Think carefully, it’s actually enough to have someone who understands you and supports you! With the rest of the group waiting to be beaten, Yi Jianlian became more and more motivated.

   Anyway, the embarrassing one is themselves, and I don’t care!

To put it this way, Yi Jianlian did not underestimate the playoffs in his heart. Even if he was just an ordinary fan in the previous life, it can be seen that the regular season is at least one to one and a half levels worse than the playoffs. Only if you can make a brilliant performance on that stage can you be regarded as a real star!

   This is why some players, even if they are only a small role in the regular season, will immediately become the focus of the team's management in the next season after they show off in the playoffs.

   Such as jb after a few years, and Randolph who is about to become a "black bear"...

   For a team, the championship is the ultimate goal, and the playoffs are the main stage. Only the guys who can stand on this and perform are really worth training.

   Therefore, although the regular season is over these few days, Yi Jianlian's training volume has also increased to ensure that he can reach the amount of activity on the usual match day, and strive to maintain his state in the best condition!

   He doesn't want to be treated as a "regular season star".

It’s been a long time since I looked at his own numerical panel. Facing the mirror again, Yi Jianlian sighed a lot. After one season, he has made great progress in all aspects except for his three-point shooting ability. Of course, there is a saying, this In the league in the period, few power forwards would pull outside to shoot three-pointers. Not only was the result determined by the characteristics of the power forward position, even the coach couldn't pass the level.

The only two special ones may be Chris Bosh and Dirknowitzki, but that is also determined by the way the Raptors and Mavericks play. These two guys are the absolute core of the court, and naturally they want to You can catch the ball where you want, and you can shoot where you want to.

   Yi Jianlian can’t do it. If he grabs an outside shot, then the backcourt pair of Michael Reed and Mo Williams will basically be abolished. They are not a breakthrough style.

   And in the "traditional center" era, all the **** are to be played inside ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ The status of three-pointers is not so high.

A very simple example, the historical three-pointer Lei Allen has averaged 5.6 three-point shots per game in his career. This is already very high during this period, but if there is no accident, it will definitely break the historical record. Compared with the future NBA three-pointer Curry, the average number of shots per game is reduced by nearly half. This is a terrifying three-point shot gap, which also shows that the two eras are completely two styles of play.

   Therefore, Yi Jianlian does not need to spend too much effort on three-pointers now. Even if he really has a strong three-point ability, he still can't perform in the current system of the Bucks.

   Instead of doing this, he might as well focus on his other weaknesses first.

   After all, even if he knows that the "small ball era" will come, he can't just play the reverse version now, right? If he really does this, it's not certain whether he can finish his rookie contract.

   Didn't you see the Thomas of the Bulls? At the beginning of the season, he was still the main force in the iron fight, and now he has become a substitute in the bench. A little bit of playing time would have to be garbage time.

   But looking at his scouting report, his best physical fitness, active defensive attitude, and good air cutting ability, buckle is also commonplace... After reading this, who did you think of? Isn't this little Jordan!

   What's the result? Jordan's highest contract was nearly 100 million, but Thomas left the league early.

   This is the fate of the times when you are born wrong and do not cater to the times.

   In mid-April, the sixteen playoff teams that had been in the NBA for a few days were doing their best. They should fly away to fly away, and set up the home atmosphere.

   A higher stage, a higher level of competition.
