NBA: The second generation of the strongest star

Chapter 87 First Defeat



Chapter 87 First Defeat
At 2 a.m. on February 1st, the NBA officially announced the best players and best rookies in January.

The first is the best rookie. There is no doubt that the best rookie is Andrew in the east and Griffin in the west. The outstanding performance of the two far surpasses other rookies.

As for the best player, the media once again exploded.

西部最佳球员:孟菲斯灰熊的扎克兰多夫,1月份扎克兰多夫场均砍下22.4分14.2篮板1.2助攻,命中率高达48.4%,率领孟菲斯灰熊打出11胜6负的战绩。

东部最佳球员:纽约尼克斯的安德鲁,1月份安德鲁场均砍下42.2分5.2篮板11.3助攻2.5抢断0.8盖帽,命中率高达56.4%,率领纽约尼克斯打出9胜5负的战绩,力压迈阿密热火的勒布朗詹姆斯。

1月份迈阿密热火拿下9胜3负的战绩,勒布朗詹姆斯场均轰下30.4分8.4篮板7.4助攻,命中率达到47.9%。

The record is not as good, but the personal data is a bit crushing LeBron James, not to mention that Andrew is a single-core player. Compared with the three All-Stars of the Miami Heat, it is normal to lose two more games a month.

So the best player in the Eastern Conference deserves his name.

As soon as the news came out, Andrew's mobile phone was blown up, and calls and text messages flooded in.

But Andrew was the first to share the news with the old man when he got the news.

He took out his phone and wrote a text message: "Old man, I'm sorry, I won the player of the month in my rookie season."

Why did Andrew say that?Because Jordan only won the Player of the Month in the third season of his career.

86-87赛季11月乔丹场均砍下37.5分6.2篮板3.5助攻2.5抢断1.7盖帽,投篮命中率达到47.4%,率领芝加哥公牛打出7胜6负的战绩,拿下职业生涯第一个月最佳球员。

Of course, Andrew clearly knew that his best player of the month was not as valuable as the old man's best player of the month.

Because the NBA's best player of the month was not divided into east and west, and there was only one player of the month, so the competition was even more intense.

Since the beginning of the 01-02 season, the best players of the month have been divided into east and west. In this way, the competitiveness of the best players of the month has been cut in half compared to before.

Andrew is very clear about this, and even Andrew feels that his best player for two months is not as "worthy" as the old man's best player for one month

Sometimes 2 is < 1!
But so what, anyway, I got it in my rookie season, earlier than you.

To put it bluntly, Andrew just wanted the old man to boast about himself, and to frustrate his arrogance by the way.

Jordan saw the text message sent by Andrew, and curiously opened the official NBA website to see that it was true.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised and he said, "As expected of Jordan's son."

Having said that, Jordan is not used to Andrew, there is no way for me to praise you.

Jordan replied: "Isn't it the best player in a little month? I have 16 times as the best player of the month, and I still have 7 championships and 7 FMVPs!" After typing the text, Jordan decisively pressed send.

After sending it, Jordan had already imagined his son's reaction after seeing his message, and then he laughed.

"WTF! 7 championships and 7 FMVPs are amazing?" Andrew roared, he was going to be pissed off, and he tried to show off, but he was defeated.

7 championships, 7 FMVPs, including two dynasties, 3 consecutive championships and 4 consecutive championships, just like an old hooligan.

Andrew frantically clicked on the phone at the speed of being single for 17 years, and it was done in a while, and clicked to send.

On the other side, Jordan saw the text message and couldn't help opening it: Old man, just wait for me, I will definitely win more championships and FMVP than you, and it will be my turn to show off every day.

"Hahahahaha." After reading it, Jordan couldn't help laughing.

And after sending the text message, Andrew didn't get the best joy in the first month of his career at all, and immediately went to training with the ball, WTF, old man, you wait for me!

Two days later, on February 2, the New York Knicks ushered in their first opponent in February-the Dallas Mavericks.

The lineup of the Dallas Mavericks can be described as a "nursing home", with an average age of over 30 years old. Among them, the main players are older. The starting point guard Jason Kidd is 38 years old. He averaged 7.9 points, 4.4 rebounds and 8.2 assists per game this season; Forward Sean Marion, who is also the team's perimeter defensive gate, is 33 years old; the starting power forward, the core of the Dallas Mavericks Nowitzki, is 32 years old; the substitute sixth man Jason Terry is 33 years old.

But don't look at them old, they have created a storm in this year's playoffs.

Andrew didn't dare to take this lightly.

In the first quarter, Andrew took the lead, and the New York Knicks scored 34:27 in a single quarter, leading by 7 points and entering the second quarter.

As soon as the second quarter came up, the Dallas Mavericks were in a completely different state. Both the offense and defense were overwhelming the New York Knicks, and they quickly recovered 7 points. Even if Andrew returned to the court, the situation could not be changed.

Andrew himself faced a very defensive defense, facing Jason Kidd outside the three-pointer. Even though Jason Kidd is 38 years old, his defense is still very good. If he doesn't pay attention, he can easily steal the ball.

It is very easy for Andrew to break through Jason Kidd. Jason Kidd is slow, but when he breaks in, he is immediately surrounded by two people. What is even more frightening is that Jason Kidd immediately went to observe who Andrew would pass to and tried to steal it. .

In the half game, Andrew had been intercepted twice by Jason Kidd in this situation. Once he was intercepted, he immediately played a defensive counterattack for the Dallas Mavericks.

"Beep beep." At the end of the first half, the Dallas Mavericks, who were slow in the second quarter, finally entered the state, and the score was 29:18 in a single quarter and a single game, leading the score in one fell swoop.

52:56, the Dallas Mavericks led by 4 points into the second half.

After a short intermission, the two sides returned to the court. Nowitzki did not play much in the first half and began to exert his strength. From the beginning of the third quarter, he frequently displayed his golden rooster independence, and his shooting rate was extremely high. A Tyson Chandler rebound.

Timofey Mozgov couldn't fight back against Tyson Chandler.

Of course, Tyson Chandler frequently restricted Andrew's breakthrough not only on the offensive end, but also on the defensive end, causing Andrew to play extremely uncomfortable, and the New York Knicks had no other breakthrough point except for Andrew's breakthrough point, which led to Dallas The Mavericks steadfastly defended Andrew heavily, making him uncomfortable.

The head coach of the Dallas Mavericks does not believe that other New York Knicks players can beat them to death. This is absolutely impossible!
Under reasonable tactical arrangements, the Dallas Mavericks scored another 9 points in the third quarter, widening the point difference to double digits.

At 73:86, the Dallas Mavericks entered the fourth quarter with a 13-point lead.

In the fourth quarter, Andrew did not rest. As soon as he came up, Andrew began to shoot around the perimeter with the help of pick-and-rolls, hitting 2 consecutive three-pointers in an attempt to narrow the point difference.

But looking back, the Dallas Mavericks' substitute players responded, Josie Barea made a three-pointer from the top of the arc, and Jason Terry made a three-pointer from the corner.

"WTF!" Immediately afterwards, as soon as the New York Knicks scored a goal, the Dallas Mavericks responded immediately. The point difference remained the same, but time passed, and then there was nothing, and the game was over.

"Beep!"

97:113
The New York Knicks lost to the Dallas Mavericks by 16 points and swallowed their first loss in February, with a total record of 2 wins and 22 losses.
