955 rush november
At noon on February 1, before the Warriors and the Clippers started, the NHA official website announced some honors for the 1st month.
The first ones were the best rookie winners, with Landry Fields of the Knicks and Blake Griffin of the Clippers being selected as the best rookies in the East and West respectively.
Among all the rookies, Fields ranked fourth with 10.B points per game, second with 1 rebounds per game, eighth with 6 assists per game, and second with 54.4 in shooting percentage. In the first 19 games of this season, Fields served as the Knicks starting every game, and among all NHAO guards, he ranked first in rebounds per game.
Griffin ranked first among all rookies with 2.2 points per game so far this season, and he also ranked first with 16 rebounds per game.
In terms of playing time per game, Griffin ranked second with 3.6 minutes, fourth with 26 assists per game, and third with 6 shooting percentage.
In the game on 11th, Griffin scored 44 points, which was the first time since Brand in February 2UU, a Clippers player scored so many points in a single game. In that game, Griffin ranked first with 15 rebounds and also achieved a season-high single game attack.
Next is the 10-month best coach award list, with Celtics' Rivers and Warriors' old Nelson respectively elected.
Other nominated head coaches include Monty Williams of the Hornets, D'Antoni of the Knicks, Scott Brooks of the Thunder, Stan Van Gundy of the Magic and Popovich of the Spurs.
Rivers led the Celtics to a record of 13 wins and 4 losses in the first month of the season, tied for the Magic to be the first in the Eastern Conference, with their winning rate of 76.0.
The Celtics lost home record at the beginning of the season, including seven wins against the Eastern Conference team. The Celtics' shooting percentage was as high as 6.0, and they became the only team in the league with a shooting percentage of more than 50%. In addition, their average assists per game ranked first in the league with 26.6 assists, and ranked first in the East with 9 points more than their opponents in terms of net winning points per game.
Old Nelson led the Warriors to an excellent record of 15 wins and 2 losses, with a winning rate of 6.0, and scored the best start in the team's history, including two consecutive victories in the 10 month game.
The Warriors are now the only team in the league that has maintained a complete away victory so far. They have defeated powerful opponents such as Magic, Thunder, and Jazz in previous key away games.
This season, the Warriors averaged 114.B points per game, ranking first in the league. They averaged 9 points per game and ranked first in the league.
The last one came out was the best player in the East and West.
Unfortunately, Chamberlain, who won the first player of the West's first week, was not on the list.
The best in the Eastern Conference is Howard. In the personal scoring list, Warcraft ranks sixth in the Eastern Conference. He averages 2B points per game, and his shooting percentage is as high as 59.0. His shooting percentage is second among all players in the Eastern Conference and fourth in the league.
With strong firepower on the offensive end, Howard also performed well in rebounding. He has averaged 2.1 rebounds per game so far in the new season and led the team to an excellent record of 13 wins and 4 losses. Such a record also made the Magic the top in the Southeast Division.
Howard's best game on the defensive end was against the Timberwolves local time 1-Day match. In this game, "Warcraft" sent his opponent B blocks, which is also the highest number of blocks that players have sent in a single game since the start of the league's new season.
In addition, Howard was also elected the Eastern Conference Player of the Week twice on 1st January 7th and 1st January 2nd.
The best opponent in the West is this time, Chris Paul, the Queen Bee.
Under Paul's command, the Hornets had a 14-6 start before February. Paul averaged 29 points and 14.9 assists per game, and had 46 rebounds and 26 steals, which are the assist king and steal king so far.
In these games, Paul won a double-double in 17 games, and his shooting percentage at the free throw line was 2.0. In the entire 10 month game, the Hornets' winning rate was as high as B[0. Compared with the team's history, B[0's winning rate was the second highest in team history.
Chamberlain's performance is actually very fierce. He ranked second in the league in 2 points per game, and his average of 17 rebounds per game is still a coquettish laughter in the whole league. Six blocks are the least one month so far in the rookie season. There is no way. After four doubles, the opponents are scared. As long as he appears, he will definitely not shoot, which greatly reduces Chamberlain's block data.
Judging from the simple data, Chamberlain is obviously more dominant, but Paul's is more valuable. He almost averaged 2fl6 per game in a single month. This is a miracle that no one in the NHA has ever done since Stockton. Chamberlain's 2fl6 is still very fierce for others, but to himself, it's nothing.
Now when the league is evaluating major awards, it has begun to use double standards, and Chamberlain's standard is himself.
After the Big Three fell in love with Miami this summer, rumors about Chris Paul and Carmelo Anthony's transfers appeared in time, becoming a hot topic in August and September. Although the two were still in the end, at least Paul was "unhappy". He expressed his satisfaction to the media with the operation of the Hornets. The game often only needs to be played, and the momentary mood doesn't mean anything. With the current situation of the Hornets, it is difficult to retain the star, and it is even more difficult to make him happy every day.
Yes, the Hornets are a famous small-scale team in the league. The boss Xinn is short of money and his stinginess is not inferior to the Clippers' leader Sterling. The trouble is that the Hornets are different from the Clippers. The latter once executed "stinginess" very thoroughly, and the result is that Elgin Baylor has been in the butler position for more than ten years because he knows how to follow the boss's temper. The Hornets cannot be so fragile in this regard. They can't help but act in a little way to compete for their record, which makes everyone very painful.
Take 2UU years for example. The Hornets used a lot of money to sign Serbian shooter Pejajakovic. As a result, Peja was in a squin state for a long time, and various injuries were the culprits. Ep sarcastically said that they spent 7.06 million US dollars and bought a good shot for a year in total. Is it worth it to understand? From this matter, it can be seen that being stingy is not a big problem. If you can't even be stingy, you can't "spend money on the blade" to really kill people.
The wonderful thing is that Peja played a good ball for the year, which was the year when the Hornets exploded collectively, that is, the 207-6 season. At that time, Paul and Kobe Bryant competed for Mp until the last moment, and the rest of the main players such as Tyson Chandler and Morris Peterson performed well. Judging from the performance of these people afterwards, it was enough for them to attend the entire season to burn the Hornets to burn the fragrance, and it was a blessing that they could not even imagine.
Facing the main players playing their career masterpieces, the first thing Hornets’ management does is not to evaluate how accidental this matter is, but to tell the world team that it has evidence of winning the championship with a large amount of money? Sign veteran James with a large contract for 3 days and 3 teams: How long will the Queen Bee in the Sky in New Orleans bee bee bee bee bee depressed - Percy is. Percy is a player with very distinctive functional and able to play shooting and defensive roles in specific teams. The problem is that you have to believe that a player has the "big heart" in big scenes, and first of all, you have to ensure that the team has the strength to appear in big scenes.
Or if that's all, everyone says that Derek Fisher is an excellent "champion puzzle", but it is an indisputable fact that he is inefficient as a starting player. Why do the Los Angeles Lakers dare to use him? Because Kobe and Paul Sol have the ability, they can still lead the team to win if Fisher doesn't have much effect in the regular season. Similarly, the same is true for Percy and the Celtics, but if the Hornets want to use Percy as a regular combat power, they are problematic in their thinking.
The final result also proves that the Hornets lost to the Nuggets in the playoffs last year, and Yu Qian didn't even make the top eight this year. This situation is impossible for Percy to use any ability to shoot three-pointers at critical moments. The Hornets' hard strength is already qualitatively different from their opponents. If they don't build a lineup, they want to introduce the championship-winning veterans of other teams, and they look like "everything is ready but they don't lose in a bad way" way.
In fact, the team's weakness is not lacking. Their substitutes in the penalty area are short of people. Since the first round pick in 2UU year, Hilton Hemstrong and Cedric Simmons, the Hornets' second-tier inside line is unprepared. In this case, Emka Okafor and his predecessor Chandler are not injured. Once injured, the door will be opened, which is equivalent to inviting others to come in as a guest. The center backup tire they rely on last season was seriously out of shape, and they are definitely not a reliable candidate for Plan B.
Even though the middle class clauses two years ago were not useful, the Hornets still had opportunities to make up for it, but the boss had no money, and just reducing the salary burden was enough for them to fall into a dead end. For example, before draft day, they put the first round pick in a deal with the Thunder, and the latter picked Cole Riverdridge as a suitable center substitute; for example, Darren Collison, who had a very good upward momentum, was sent away, and the Hornets didn't seem to try their best to make this possible, which might be the best transfer bait for the whole team, and they only got Trevo River Riza on the wing.
In any case, Ariza is a good player, but it is far from better, as Paul said, "His help highlights the team's determination to compete for the championship."
"Ghost Warrior" is just a puzzle piece that won the Lakers in 2009. Compared with Percy, his advantage is that he is younger and it is not a big problem to maintain his current level. As for the immediate changes he brings to the Hornets, it is tantamount to dreaming.
The only thing the Hornets can look forward to in the next few years is the salary space that Peja has vacant after the expiration of their contract. Otherwise, no matter how many high-quality supporting roles they introduce, they are suspected of building a "castle in the air". After all, the team's pockets are so bulging. If you want to contribute, you have to lay a solid foundation first. Will Paul lose patience before that? We can only say that New Orleans City is indeed "everyone loves Chris", but the era of loyalty has long passed. As strong as the Cavaliers will lose their favorites after they have won the title of the regular season twice. Where should the Hornets' confidence come from?
The New Orleans Hornets may be able to learn from the Cleveland Cavaliers in the new season to see how they lost LeBron James and fell to this point today. Because as soon as next season, Chris Paul will decide whether to stay or not. This summer, Paul's transfer has become the most worrying drama in New Orleans. Although the Hornets have changed senior executives and do their best (at least it seems) to sign ups, Paul also appeared in training camp for the new season, but from Paul's recent actions, he is still waiting and watching the team's future.
As the two protagonists of the deal, Paul and Cameron Anthony have been flirting with each other all summer. Just when Anthony was in the New York Knicks, the Chicago Bulls and the New Jersey Nets, and expressed his willingness to stay, Paul called out from the air and invited Anthony to join. From this point of view, although Paul apparently agreed with the team's summer operation, he still did not forget to express his true thoughts through different channels. According to the Hornets executives, they wanted to use the hope of the playoffs to attract Paul. But the question is whether the hope of the playoffs is enough to satisfy Paul? The Cavaliers have hope of winning the championship every year and have actually visited the Finals. James privileged player: The stay and leave storm has troubled Paul when he entered the countdown and turned around and left.
The Hornets have never escaped the trouble of injuries, and Paul is no exception. In the 27-6 season, the Hornets soared into the sky and reached the second in the Western Conference in the regular season. Some experts pointed out that the Hornets have rarely maintained their health. With the starting lineup of five goals, they finally achieved their due level. Unfortunately, this situation did not last long. Last season, Paul was a disaster. He only played 45 games due to injury, and the top point guard data of 2fl0 for two consecutive seasons also fell to an average of 18.7 points and 10 points per game. In his absence, Darren Collison quickly took the lead, helping the Hornets through the difficulties, which also triggered discussions about how the two Hornets should choose. The Hornets were ultimately unable to enter the playoffs, which became the fuse that prompted Paul to leave.
Paul's current situation is consistent with Dwayne Wade's Miami Heat in the past few years. He may not be the only All-Star player in the team, but he is the only person to rely on. The Hornets' wing defense was flooded last season, but Paul was a person who had appeared in the best and best defensive team of the year. After Collison was finally cleared out of the team, Paul's uniqueness in the Hornets' tactics will continue. In this case, the greater the pressure Paul bears, it will be of great benefit to the further development of his personal skills and tactics, but it will not be of much benefit to the Hornets. After a long period of delay, Paul will be tired sooner or later. In the Hornets' games, Paul often leads the entire team in the scoring list. Although this is in line with the trend of double-sports guards today, it can also be seen that the Hornets' tactical deployment is poor.
The Hornets' new coach Monty Williams said first: "If Paul didn't stay in the team, I wouldn't have coached the Hornets." This also shows the embarrassment of the Hornets' management. With the successful precedent of the Boston Celtics and the sensational effect of the Heat's forming the Big Three this summer, Paul and Anthony cannot be distracted
When discussing the best point guard at the active service, Chris Paul is an unavoidable name. He is a magical point guard, extraordinary ball control, turning decay into magical passes. He should have won the regular season MP of the 2070B season, but he was snatched away by Kobe because of his qualifications. His personal data in the 2609 season was even better. Last season, his three-pointers were even more terrifying, reaching 40.0, which was his biggest shortcoming. If it weren't for injury, Paul wouldn't have lost the assist king and steal king. In addition, at 83 meters, he averaged 6 rebounds per game in the 2609 season and was selected for the best defensive team in the league in the 2609 season. Can you find a more perfect point guard than this?
After Collison was sold, Paul lost his trustworthy substitute, and the Hornets had to sign Jane Niro back to play. Pago played well in the 26th playoffs. He was a double-season defender, but he went to Europe to play due to contract issues and performed poorly last season. In addition, the Hornets also signed Mustafa Shakur as a spare tire.
Marcus Thorton averaged 14.6 points per game last season. The second round rookie will start the second position. He is a pure breakup. His disadvantage is his insufficient height and his defensive problems with Paul. There are two options for Willy Green and Marco Belinelli in the bench position.
The small forward's playing time will be divided by Trevo Heliza and Pejas Jarkovic. Ariza is likely to debut. Ariza is a good defensive player. Although his shooting range is limited, this is not consistent with Paul, Paul called to express his sympathy at the beginning of joining. His outstanding athleticism will be fully displayed by Paul. Peja is still an excellent shooter, but it is difficult for him to compete with Ariza due to his age, injuries and other issues. Rookie Quincy Pondest is the third choice.
David West is the only choice for power forward position. West's data dived sharply last season. He is already 3 years old. This is a dangerous age. Fortunately, Paul's return will help him recover. He is still the second-in-command of the team. Behind him is the only rookie Michael Washington. Therefore, when the Hornets are playing in a small lineup, Peja is likely to appear in this position.
The Hornets have four choices for center position: Emecca Okafor, Aaron Gray, Jason Smith and Darrell Watkins. Okafor's performance last season was disappointing, averaging 10.4 points and 9 rebounds per game, both hitting career lows. Even with Paul, he could not score better. Gray and Smith were both over seven feet, and the two would compete to serve as Okafor's substitute. Gray is a slow-moving penalty area, with good rebounds and passes, but his slow footing affected his defense, and his offensive ability was close to no. Smith is a white insider with good skills, but has suffered serious injuries.
