Chapter 149: Change Nash

"Well~ the problem is like this. Without considering free throws, assuming that in a game 100 shots, 45 percent of two-pointers and 35 percent of three-pointers, then two points and How many three-point attempts are combined to make the team's total score greater than 100 all three-point attempts?"
"Uh, I count."
Nash buried his head and began to write with a pen.
After a while, Li Nan asked, "Steve, have you figured it out?"
"Soon."
After a while,
"Steve, have you figured it out?"
"It will be done soon." Nash was urged to look a little impatient.
After a while, Nash wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, and then said, "Okay, done."
Like a primary school student, Nash smiled and turned in his answer sheet, showing off somewhat, "Lee, am I good? I can figure it out so soon."
Looking at the #%+ on the paper Nash wrote, Li Nan also smiled.
Nash uses the simplest algorithm, and all combinations are listed.
Starting from 100 two-pointers, to 99 two-pointers and one three-pointer,... to the last 100 three-pointers.
0 three points, 100 two points, the score is 90 points;
...
10 three-pointers, 90 two-pointers, the score is 91.5 points;
...
90 three-pointers. 10 two points, the score is 103.5 points;
…
100 three-pointers, 35 points, the score is 105 points.
Nash really wrote neatly, really very, very seriously, well, honestly.
It's just that this is a question of elementary school students' level. You have been for more than half an hour.
"Yes, yes, Steve, you are indeed a top student in the university. You are very good. In our country, your level has already caught up with Xiaoxuesheng."
"Xiaoxuesheng? Who is it?" Nash didn't know the term, so he was very curious.
Li Nan was a little embarrassed, but quickly reacted, "Uh, it's a group of super-powerful students. Yes! Super-schoolers!"
"Thank you, I am indeed a xiaoxuesheng. When I was in middle school in Canada, our teacher commented on me like this." Nash was a little proud.
Li Nan quickly changed the subject. He picked up the draft paper and asked:
"Steve, do you see anything from here?"
The data is so obvious that anyone who is not a fool can understand it naturally.
Of course Nash knew it too. Isn’t that the more three-pointers you make, the more points you score?
However, Nash also has his own understanding.
"I seem to understand a little bit why the 76ers can beat these powerful opponents."
"Huh? Tell me about it."
Nash is indeed a smart player, he has a lot of ideas, and his understanding is not bad at all.
"This style of play is a test of the team's shooting. Even if we are not as good as others, we may still shoot three-pointers to kill our opponent. It's like playing against the Bulls. There was no chance, but we relied on the three-pointers abruptly. Shots are out of the world."
Speaking of this, Nash also asked:
"Li, is this a run-and-gun?"
"Running? It's true."
Why is it called "calculated"?
Because in Li Nan's view, the 76ers are at best a three-pointer team. They are far from the establishment of a complete running and bombing system.
The 76ers are such a team. It's not very competitive in itself, but it relies on his three-pointer to make a road.
The three-point problem is understood. Nash has other problems that he hasn't solved.
"What about the 7-second offense? We can shoot three points, but is the 7-second offense too hasty?"
7-second attack, isn’t it the Chinese coach’s favorite "little quick spirit" style of play? It's just a concept of time.
"A 7-second offense is actually chasing and fighting back. In fast movement, quickly find the best offensive opportunity. This offensive efficiency is actually higher than the efficiency of positional warfare. Of course, this is a point guard. It’s a very big test, and it’s not that anyone can handle the ball well."
Having said this, Li Nan took a deep look at Nash, and then said:
"But, Steve, you are right. The 7-second offense is too hasty for us now. This is actually just our goal in the future. What we have to do now is to chase and fight as quickly as possible. The footing of the opponent is not stable."
"No, Li, I can do it!"
There was something in Nash's eyes suddenly.
...
On March 29, the Philadelphia 76ers ushered in their last opponent in March at home, the Atlanta Hawks.
The Eagles, currently fourth in the Eastern Conference, have a 48-21 record.
The 76ers, currently seventh in the East, have a 36-33 record.
Behind the 76ers, the Magic 35-34, the Cavaliers 34-35, and the Bullets 34-36. The record of the three teams is still eyeing the 76ers.
The 76ers faced the eagle, and those behind them naturally thought that the eagle could help suppress it.
The Hawks themselves are only one win short of the third-placed Knicks and only 1.5 wins more than the Pistons behind them. At this time, they can't relax.
In this game, the two sides are also fighting hard.
However, the result is surprising.
111-120
The 76ers beat their strong opponents at home to the Atlanta Hawks and continue to secure their seventh place ~EbookFREE.me~ In this game, the 76ers made 22 three-pointers. They shot the eagle with a fierce three-pointer.
Li Nan performed well, with 26 points and 6 three-pointers.
Iverson performed poorly, 8 of 24, 24 points, 6 assists and 4 rebounds.
However, the biggest contributor to the 76ers' win is the surprising substitute, Steve Nash.
In this game, Nash played 20 minutes and scored 10 points and 13 assists! He personally participated directly for nearly forty points and is the best player in the 76ers today.
Originally, the main force of the Eagles was slightly ahead of the 76ers, but the rotation lineup led by Nash and Li Nan returned, even exceeding the score.
After the game, the reporter interviewed Iverson and also mentioned Nash.
"Steve is a very good player and his passing is great."
Iverson praised Nash once.
The opponent's Eagles coach Lanny Wilkens also praised Nash.
"Steve is a magical guard. His ability to bring rhythm is too strong. He defeated us."
As a result, in the evening, the 76ers management received many calls from other teams.
Among them, Don Nelson of the Mavericks is the most active.
"We traded for Steve Nash in the first round of this year!"
This condition is still very tempting, and the 76ers can indeed consider it. Look at the Mavericks' current record, fourth from the bottom. Maybe when the time comes, draw a lottery and the top pick will be won.
However, Don Nelson added conditions insincerely, and the top five were protected.
There is nothing to consider...

On the other side, in the NCAA arena, good news came from Syracuse University.
