Chapter 239: The gods descend to earth, the king returns

The Mavericks conducted daily training, and Sabonis showed everyone his abilities.
Halfway through the training, Sun Hao felt it was necessary for the topic of "what would he be like if Sabonis entered the NBA when he was young?"
Because Sabonis is so comprehensive, he basically has the skills that big men have, fast moving, rich experience, and even occasionally give you a three-pointer.
If he enters the NBA when he is young, he has the opportunity to become a legend in the center position like O'Neal.
Old Nelson did his best, half of the training, and then half of the training, let Sabonis play the role of O'Neal.
This is a very common thing in NBA teams.
As everyone knows, McGrady was dragged by the Spurs to play the role of James in training at the end of his career.
It's just that Sabonis is really old, without O'Neill's explosive power, the training effect is not particularly good.
"How's the matter about Munch going?"
Old Nelson turned around and asked about Little Nelson.
"If it goes well, you can come to Dallas at the end of this month."
"So fast?"
Old Nelson was surprised.
The general manager's job is better done by his own son.
After the All-Star Game, the Mavericks' record had some ups and downs.
Sabonis' injury had a relatively large impact on him. Later, the old Nelson simply let him take a truce and give him the opportunity to Wang Zhizhi and Collins.
With the opportunity to play, the two have their own performances, which is also a good thing for the Mavericks in the long run.
And at this time, Sun Hao also learned from Nelson Jr. that Battelle was coming to the Mavericks.
He was still a little surprised by this news. Battle in history went to the Nuggets.
It seems that his appearance has changed a lot.
But it makes sense to think about it. The Mavericks themselves are interested in Chinese players.
As for Battelle, in history, he went to the Nuggets not because he chose the Nuggets, but because the Nuggets chose him.
If the Mavericks want to get him, as long as they get in touch, it will be easy to get.
Because from Battelle’s point of view, going abroad, is there any reason to refuse to play with teammates in the national team?
And knowing that Battelle will join, he also knows the Mavericks' thinking this season.
The Mavericks can now play center, Lafrenz, Sabonis, Battelle, Collins, including Wang Zhizhi who can also play the fifth position, a team of 5 people can play center!
This is to play a wheel battle with O'Neill!
At the end of February, Sun Hao met Battelle in the locker room.
Battelle looked a little dull, but if he really met with Sun Hao and Wang Zhizhi, he talked a lot.
They helped the Chinese team to win the Asian Championships together in Shanghai, and they are also a comrade-in-arms who have fought in the Kangdao.
Old Nelson couldn't wait to let Battelle play the role of O'Neal during training.
Compared to Sabonis, Battelle, who is at the peak of his body, is obviously closer to O'Neal.
And an unexpected scene happened during training.
The muscular man, Collins, wanted to prevent Battler from scoring after losing his defensive position, but he didn't move much when he went up to Battelle.
"What does this guy usually eat?"
This scene stunned old Nelson.
Although Corinth's body shape can't hold O'Neal, it's also a serious black and hard.
The static power of Battle is not only strong, it is a bit scary.
"I think in terms of static power alone, only Shaq is better than him in this alliance."
After watching the training, the old Nelson looked happy.
Hearing and seeing things are different, he now feels that the team has earned this contract.
On the second day Battelle came to Dallas, the Mavericks ushered in a game with the Pacers.
This is also Battelle's first NBA show.
Three Chinese players gathered in the first team, the attention of this game can be imagined.
The overall strength of the Mavericks surpassed the Pacers and took the initiative in the opening game.
However, the Pacers' O'Neal performed well, whether it is against LaFrenz or Sabonis, he played well.
The score on the court after the first quarter was 32 to 27, and the Mavericks only led by 5 points.
Battelle got the chance to debut in the second quarter.
His appearance also cheered domestic fans.
Before last season, the NBA had no Chinese players.
But after this moment, 4 Chinese players have appeared in the NBA arena.
Battelle’s advantage is his strength, but his weakness is his slow movement.
The Pacers' own offensive pace is slow, which allows his weaknesses to be covered up, and his strengths are amplified.
And when he surprised old Nelson, Battelle's back-turning technique under the basket was excellent, he was more than just a defensive engineer!
This allowed Nelson to keep him on the court for more time.
Then, the surprise came again.
The backup transition period passed, the main force of both sides returned, Battelle was still left on the court.
As a result, O'Neal, who was in a hot state before, slumped in the face of Battelle!
O'Neal's technical characteristics are a bit similar to Garnett. He has a top-notch body, but his style of play is outside.
His strongest move is to turn back to the basket, or pull back the jumper.
He could switch freely before facing LaFrentz or Sabonis.
But when encountering Battelle, there is basically no way to turn to the basket. Battelle becomes a wall in front of him, and he can only step out!
This greatly reduced his offensive efficiency.
The Mavericks also took advantage of the climax and pulled the score apart.
But when he hit the back, Battelle's weaknesses were also exposed.
His speed is too slow, he is still in his own half after the fast break.
Including retreat, he will always be the last to return to halftime.
However, the Mavericks' price to sign him is also small, with the previous performances and any bicycles.
In the end, the Mavericks won at home.
Battelle scored a full 15 minutes of playing time in his NBA debut. He scored 5 points and 6 rebounds. There are many defensive contributions that cannot be reflected in the defensive end data. His performance is quite good.
When the locker room concluded after the game, the old Nelson even praised him by name.
"He brought us toughness."
This is the evaluation of the old Nelson.
This is also a very good evaluation.
The Mavericks are always described as soft by the media because of their play style.
But Battelle's body and style full of male hormones successfully made up for this.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it comes to mid-April.
The second season of Sun Hao's NBA career is coming to an end.
Before the All-Star Game, he successfully upgraded the long-range marksman to the Hall of Fame.
After the All-Star Game, he also successfully promoted his mid-range shooting to the Silver level, and his unlimited range is also very close to the Hall of Fame level.
Then open his attribute list to see.
Height: 190m; Weight: 83kg
Strength: 85; Speed: 80; Agility: 75; Jumping: 77; Physical Ability: 86; Ball Quotient: 93
Ball control: 84; pass: 61; dunk: 66; layup: 81; mid-range: 71; three-pointer: 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 dunk and defense.
Of course, the most obvious improvement is his mid-range and three-pointers.
If his style of play was very partial to Curry last season, this season has been closer to Durant.
And as the game played more and more, his badge also accumulated more.
Bronze badge: combatant, dribbling veteran;
Silver badge: mid-range marksman, catcher, bronze wall, pick and roll master, pick and roll dodger, fast break terminator, first step master;
Gold badge: unlimited range, basketball IQ;
Hall of Fame badge: long-range marksman;
Other badges: Man of Glory
Halo: Best Rookie (May 2, 2001-May 2, 2002)
Stadium fetters: Nowitzki, Nash, Yi Jianlian, Esley;
The NBA's regular season is also coming to an end at this time, and the competition between teams for playoff seats and rankings has entered a fierce battle.
And like last year, the records between the Western Conference teams are very close.
Especially among the top four, in addition to the Kings who have been locked in the league, the Lakers, Mavericks and Spurs have the same record.
This makes the final ranking full of suspense.
And here, second and third in the west are locations that no one wants to go to.
The ranking in the lower half has been determined, with the Timberwolves ranked sixth and the Trail Blazers seventh.
The Trail Blazers don't need much. The lean camel is bigger than the horse, and whoever beats will suffer.
There is also the Timberwolves. Although their record has fallen, their zone defense is still the best in the league.
It was against this background that the teams were in great condition on the last day.
The Spurs played the Warriors, Popovich was shocked to make five truce all, and all on the bench.
As a result, the top four teams in the Western Conference regular season lost to the bottom-ranked Warriors in the Western Conference.
Of course, like last year, this behavior has also been complained by many teams.
This regular season is a joke!
But Popovich finally miscalculated this time, because the Lakers there lost to the Wizards!
This is not a Lakers play.
The Lakers never pick opponents in the playoffs, they must be the higher the record, the better.
But in this game, I don't know who pressed Jordan's "God of God" switch.
The old hooligans scored 51 points in this game, setting a record for scoring in a single game of his Wizarding career!
And Jordan scored 50+ at the age of 39, which also refreshed the age of 50+ in the NBA!
This is incredible!
But if you are a Wizards fan, and you pull the timeline back to the performance after Jordan's comeback in March, you don't think this is too strange.
Before the All-Star Game, Jordan only got 40+ once.
But since his comeback, he has gotten 3 times, including a back-to-back 40+.
There is no such thing as returning a loan to God when he is old. The 39-year-old Jordan told people why he was called an old hooligan.
Sun Hao watched this live broadcast. After watching it, he felt that everyone, including himself, underestimated Jordan during the Wizards period.
Age and injuries limit Jordan's durability, but do not limit his short-term explosive ability.
But having said that, these data have actually been done by Jordan during the Wizards period in history.
The difference is that Jordan was fighting alone at that time, in order to bring the team into the playoffs to the season reimbursement.
But now, Yao Ming's presence, coupled with Mobley's addition, allows him to heal his injuries in advance.
And when he is away, the Wizards record is also very stable, he can not only heal his injuries in advance, but also can heal his injuries boldly.
As a result, Jordan staged a series of good shows such as The Return of the King, the Gods descended to the earth and so on, and severely left the two words of feelings behind him.
The nickname of the 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 is in the best form.
O'Neal 32 points and 20 rebounds, Kobe Bryant 38 points, the two scored 70 points together!
Even if Jordan scored 50+, this game has reached the final moments.
The Wizards' ability to win has something to do with Yao Ming and Mobley.
Yao Ming's final defensive round, one round gave O'Neal three risks, watching the Wizards fans at home.
Mobley even received Jordan's goal at the last minute and hit a desperate three-pointer, which ended the game.
When Jordan was absent, the rest of the Wizards were growing.
This Wizards team has a lot to do in the East!
After the Lakers lost, they fell directly to fourth, and the Mavericks ranked third because of the game.
With the end of the final day of the game, the final rankings of the East and West Divisions will also be released.
In the East, the Celtics ranked first.
Although the record is a bit worse than the Kings, Carlisle has already targeted the best coach.
The second place is the Nets.
The addition of Kidd really helped this team achieve a big turnaround. They improved from 26 wins to 52 wins.
But that is, Kidd's language is estimated to be taught by the physical education teacher.
Because this situation is called a 180° turn over instead of 360°, which is equivalent to not moving.
The Wizards ranked third.
The addition of Yao Ming and Mobley allowed Jordan to avoid season reimbursements and made their destiny completely different from history.
The Pistons ranked fourth.
Speaking of turning over, the Pistons and the Nets also turned over.
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 competition for the best defensive player because of the team record last season, this season has become an absolute hot candidate.
The fifth to eighth teams are the Magic, 76ers, Raptors, and Pacers.
But this time I have to mention a hapless Hornets team.
Because of the regional system, they could have been ranked fifth in the East, but they were forced to 9th in the East and missed the playoffs.
Charlotte's fans almost missed the league.
What's more, the mayor who started to spray Charlotte's inaction, let the team move out of this troubled city early.
Sometimes you really don’t understand the American way of thinking.
Just like the great parade that appeared in history because of George Floyd, when their mayor said that the police were not effective enough to suppress it, UU read www. The uukanshu.com police can dance the square dance with the parade citizens.
The Eastern Conference came out, and the first round matchup followed.
Celtics VS Pacers, Nets VS Raptors, Wizards VS 76ers, Pistons VS Magic.
Among these four sets of matches, the latter two are absolutely spectacular.
Jordan and Iverson's playoff encounter, McGrady's first playoff trip.
If you change it in the future, this is where traffic is concentrated.
In the West, the first to eighth places are the Kings, Spurs, Mavericks, Lakers, Sonics, 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.
