Chapter 241 The West End(1/2)

If there were no injuries, the Warriors would likely hit a new high on the basis of 72 wins in the regular season of the 1996-1997 season.

Because this season, the Warriors' configuration is actually stronger than last season.

Lin Xing, who developed a historic three-pointer, has improved his offensive firepower to a higher level.

This season, he averaged 30.1 points per game and won the first scoring champion of his career with a slight advantage of 0.5 points.

And his 30.1 score, about 11.4 points came from three points.

To be precise, this season, Lin Xing, who attended 82 games, made a total of 311 three-pointers.

This also created the history of the NBA, with 311 three-pointers in a single season. Compared with the original record, Denis Scott created 267 three-pointers in a single season last season, an increase of 44.

He averaged three-pointers per game, and it increased from 3.3 three-pointers per game last season to 3.8 three-pointers per game.

It can be said that after one season, Lin Xing already had the taste of the first three-pointer in history.

Lin Xing's three-pointer also led his teammates. Originally, he could only make a three-pointer, but now as long as he appears outside the three-point line, his opponent has to consider whether to go directly to guard against the enemy.

With such a big threat, teammates naturally feel more comfortable to play.

The one who benefited the most was Dominic Wilkins, who was not favored by the original, was absent from the game for a month due to injury.

In the remaining 70 games, he averaged 17.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, 3.2 assists per game.

All 70 games have been substituted, and it can be said that he has locked in the honor of the best sixth man this season.

In the Warriors, Wilkins, who appeared as the sixth man, played very comfortably.

Old Nelson's arrangement was originally intended to allow Wilkins to lead the second team alone so that Wilkins' singles can be maximized.

But what he didn't expect was that Wilkins played more comfortably, while the time periods he was present at the same time as Lin Xing.

Don’t forget that Xia Tian Lin Xing improved more than one three-pointer, and he also improved his off-ball to first-class level.

Basically, Lin Xing and Wilkins were on the court at the same time, and all those who were in charge of the ball were Wilkins.

The experts in the NBA have been feeling for almost a season.

"After winning the championship season, Stadium made another surprisingly huge progress. He has mastered a historic three-pointer and is better than winning the championship season without the ball."

"Now, he can seamlessly switch his mode or state, can break through everything with the ball, or create threats without the ball."

Simply put, Lin Xing is more versatile.

Compared with Lin Xing's huge progress, Wilkins' surprise, Mo Ning is the kind of steady progress.

This season, he missed nearly thirty games, and he can sigh: The injury is as fierce as a tiger.

But in those days when there were no injuries, Mo Ning still played the role that the champion center should have.

Moreover, because the Warriors' defensive system has been running in for another season, Mo Ning's performance in the system has become more ease.

This season, the Warriors still have three cores, and compared with the championship season, their three cores have even been in conflict with each other, which is a bit outrageous.

The Warriors have long been the best in the championship competition in the 1996-1997 season.

Public opinion believes that only the Big Three Rockets have a chance to stop this Warriors.

Although a deal caused the Rockets to lose Sam Kassel and Horry's two important role players.

But one extra super giant also means that the Rockets' abuse attributes are full.

This season, they eventually won 57 games, third in the West and entered the playoffs.

Although the ranking is not high, the upper limit of the Big Three is placed there, which is why public opinion has always been optimistic about the Rockets.

"The biggest opponent is the Rockets? This is not necessarily the case. The Rockets should first think about whether they can pass the Jazz..."

As Lin Xing said, this season, the bigger opponent should be the Jazz.

In the summer, the Jazz poached champion center Will Perdo from the Bulls.

In fact, it is not considered digging. Perdo has long been given up by the Zen master, so he left the team freely.

The Jazz didn't regard Peldo as the answer to the inside. They introduced Peldo purely because they lacked people in the inside.

But after one season, Perdo performed quite gratifyingly.

He averaged 8.9 points, 9.8 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game, making up for the Jazz's weakest link.

Compared with his performance at the Bulls in the previous season, we can only say that trees are moved to death and people are moved to death.

In the regular season, the Jazz, who had no outstanding flaws, scored 60 wins, defeated the Rockets and became the second in the West.

The top three in the West are the Warriors, Jazz and Rockets, and the fourth is the supersonics that have performed very stably in the past two years.

The fifth is the Lakers who got the Sharks, and the sixth is the Trail Blazers who are all soldiers. Compared with the original history, the Trail Blazers who lack Rashid Wallace gave Jermaine O'Neal more opportunities.

With the Warriors' Kobe and the Heat's Garnett, the NBA gradually felt the impact from high school students.

The seventh is that a mid-season trade got Jason Kidd's Suns, and that's right, Kidd eventually left Dallas.

The Suns used his partner Kevin Johnson to help the Suns catch the last train of the playoffs.

The eighth is the surprising Clippers. They have no star players. The best player is power forward Lauy Alt, who averages 14.9 points and 10.0 rebounds per game.

If you want to ask why the Clippers can make the playoffs? Then you have to ask the big boy who loves to laugh very much.

The NBA has confirmed that Tim Duncan will participate in the 1997 draft.

He is already a senior, so he can't do it if he doesn't participate.

In this case, the NBA's performance is even more crazy.

In the West alone, there are four teams, including the Grizzlies, Spurs, Mavericks and Nuggets, who are playing badly.

And in the East, the Celtics, 76ers, Nets, and Raptors are also in the midst of a huge army.

Affected by this, the short Clipper, was pulled taller.

Maybe they don't want to make the playoffs either, but they just made it.

The Warriors' first round playoff opponent is the Clippers.

This opponent is really not worth mentioning.

Other first round showdowns—

Jazz vs Suns, Rockets vs Trail Blazers and Supersonics vs Lakers.

Lin Xing can already confirm that in the Warriors' second round of playoffs, he will stage a brothers battle again.

As for the opponent in the Western Conference Finals, Lin Xing is more optimistic about the Jazz.

That's right, Lin Xing had already thought of the Western Conference Finals.

As for why we don’t imagine the finals together, it’s not that Lin Xing has not yet expanded to that point, but the situation in the East is really a bit chaotic.

In the eastern part, the Bulls were the first, and the Knicks rushed to second again with a wave of blood exchange in summer.

Later on, the young player grew up for another season and the Hawks who won Deakinbe Mutombo in the summer.

Ranked fifth is the Heat led by Xiao Chong, and the Heat have made great progress this season.

Part of the reason is that Hard Te is getting better and better, but there are also reasons why Heat Taobao is successful.

Tani Sei

Riley suddenly dug out a league-edge center, Isaac Austin.

In the 94-95 and 95-96 seasons, he was even eliminated from the NBA.

But this season, as the Heat's main center, he averaged 12.7 points and 7.1 rebounds per game.

With the double towers of Isaac Austin Gadharth, the Heat made great progress and won 50 games.

The sixth place in the East is a series of successfully operating Hornets in the summer. Public opinion believes that Hornets general manager Bob Bass has basically locked in the trophy of Best Manager.

From lottery to playoffs, this Hornets have made too much progress.

The seventh place in the east is the bullet led by Weber and Uncle Huo Er, and the eighth place in the east is the magic that lost the sharks.

Public opinion believes that the poles are in the west this season, and the east is so strong, isn’t the situation just a chaotic move?

Even Lin Xing is difficult to judge who can break out from the east.

However, he still believes that the Bulls have a better chance because they have temporary GOAT.

...

The playoffs started soon, and for the Warriors, the Clippers are indeed a bit unremarkable.

G1, Lin Xing outputted it casually.

The first quarter was 7 points, the second quarter was 5 points, the third quarter was 8 points, and the three quarters had a total of 20 points. The Warriors just clocked in and got off work in three quarters.

Not only Lin Xing did not exert force, but Wilkins and Mooning did not exert much force either.

The Warriors can clock in and get off work in the third quarter, but they rely on seven players to score in double digits.

Lin Xing, Wilkins, Morning, Russell, Donyere Marshall, Chris Chiles and Kobe scored in double scores, resulting in the victory of the Warriors' G1 battle.

"It's so easy, so relaxed that I'm wondering if this is the playoffs?"
