175:Tracy, the king of the end(1/3)
After the regular season ended, this year's data kings were basically eliminated by the top five shooting guards, or to be precise, by Li Ang and AI.
Iverson, the scoring leader, averaged 31.1 points per game and was the only player in the league to average 30 points per game this season.
The leader in steals is still AI, averaging 2.5 steals per game.
However, what caused the biggest stir was not the fact that the top five shooting guards won the scoring and steal titles.
After all, as a shooting guard, it is normal to win the scoring and steal titles.
What the outside world talks about the most is that Li Ang, one of the top five shooting guards, actually came back with a rebounding title...
"Congratulations to Brother Yunlong for winning the rebounding title for the second time in his career. It's really gratifying. He is indeed a role model for contemporary shooting guards!"
During the media opening time the day after the regular season ended, the Toronto media all congratulated Li Ang.
Li Ang kept an awkward yet polite smile, feeling MMP in his heart.
You can’t get rid of this rebounding champion, right!?
It makes me seem like I'm not a serious shooting guard.
Originally, Li Ang's rebounds per game this season were lower than those of Uncle Mu and Senior Brother Ben. However, in March and April, Carter's shooting percentage was not ideal in many games, which made Li Ang accidentally increase his rebounds.
Already.
Ever since, he won the rebounding title for the second time in his career.
In this way, AI and Li Ang are equivalent to occupying three seats among the five data kings.
The five shooting guards are so terrifying!
In fact, Li Ang should be lucky that he won the rebounding title. If it weren't for this rebounding title, the cauliflower snakes on the West Coast would now be able to mock Li Ang to death.
Because Li Ang is the only one among the top five shooting guards this season who averages less than 20 points per game.
Although Li Ang has scored 20 points in a single game many times this season, he has even scored 30 points in a single game twice.
But under normal circumstances, when Carter performs normally, Li Ang doesn't score too many points, only in the teens.
Without ball-handling and long-range shooting, it is still difficult to score points.
And when Carter performs well, Li Ang doesn't need to score so many points.
Therefore, Li Ang's average data per game this season is fixed at 19.7 points, 13.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.8 blocks.
Among the top five shooting guards, Tracy McGrady, who has the lowest score besides Li Ang, averages 26.8 points per game.
However, because Li Ang won the rebounding title that no one else had, it was difficult for Volute to activate his taunting skills.
After all, it seems a bit inappropriate for a person who has never won any data title to mock a two-consecutive rebound leader.
Although the average points per game is still unfortunately not over 20, Li Ang's offensive data are already much better than last season. The progress this season is visible to the naked eye.
In this era of extremely wild defense, he averaged 19.7 points per game, which was also in the top 30 in the league.
Excluding the leaders of each team, Li Ang is basically the group.
Moreover, this does not mean that Li Ang's scoring ability is definitely worse than the 29 people in front of him.
Mainly the people in front, as the boss of a team, basically have a lot of power to take action.
Now in the Raptors, the core of the offense is still Carter, who averages 22.1 shots per game.
In comparison, Li Ang only averaged 15.8 shots per game.
If Li Ang can average more than 20 shots per game, wouldn't he be able to score over 20 points per game?
Therefore, Li Ang is not discouraged. Besides, the sophomore averaged 19.7 points per game, which is not shameful.
If this continues, Li Ang will definitely be able to break through the 20 points per game mark next season.
And to judge how valuable a player is, the most important thing is not to look at his scoring average in the regular season, but to see whether he can fight hard in the playoffs.
Back then, Dirk's regular season statistics were also very good. His statistics were so good that he won the regular season MVP.
But that still doesn't stop people from treating him like a wimp.
You have to be tough in the playoffs to win everyone's respect.
All Li Ang can think about now is how to make a big splash in the playoffs.
The Raptors' schedule is also particularly eye-catching, because the Raptors' opponents have been very interesting since the first round.
In the first round of magic, the three-headed dragons gathered together to fight.
In the second round, there is a high probability that they will play the Bucks, and Ray Allen is eyeing them. In March just past, Ray led his team to double-kill the Raptors, so this series is also full of suspense.
If this series really happens, it will be the starting point for Junzi Lei to challenge the top five shooting guards.
In the Eastern Conference finals, the outside world is looking forward to the battle between the 76ers and the Raptors.
The battle between the 76ers and Carter and Leon can be called the pinnacle showdown between the five shooting guards.
The Raptors will encounter a tough opponent in every next round of games. The Raptors' schedule is also called "the most difficult schedule in the playoffs" by the media.
It's just that many people feel that it will be difficult for the Raptors to reach the Eastern Conference Finals.
Because the Raptors won't have it easy against the Magic in the first round.
Even if they advance, they will definitely be exhausted by the time they reach the Eastern Conference semifinals.
When the time comes, if we try to attack the suffering stag, I'm afraid the chance of overturning is extremely high.
The day before the playoffs started, as a brother of the Eastern Gangsters, I immediately sent a text message to Maizi: "Remember, never go out to eat fruit plate with Li Ang! This is all experience!"
People outside are still discussing how far the Raptors can play this season, while Li Ang is happily training with his two disciples.
Curry and Yao Ming, Li Ang never expected that these two people who had nothing to do with each other would intersect because of him.
Yao Ming was a little afraid of Curry, because he always felt that... there was something wrong with that guy's head.
Yao Ming discovered this problem on the first day of training with Curry.
At that time, he was quietly warming up in one half of the court. He was shooting and thinking about dunking a basket for fun.
As a result, as soon as Yao Ming lifted the basketball, before he could jump, Curry suddenly jumped out from behind and slapped the ball in Yao Ming's hand out of the baseline.
"Hahaha, I successfully blocked the shot!" Curry couldn't help shouting after finishing the block.
Yao Ming was shocked at the time. How many people would rush up to block shots while others are warming up?
Since then, Yao Ming has believed that this person named Curry is abnormal!
"Yao, do you want to learn how to dunk with me?" Today, during the break between training, the primary school student gathered next to this tall Chinese man again.
Yao Ming silently moved to the side, then waved his hand: "No, no, your dunk is too difficult, I can't learn it."
"Hey, let me teach you a few simple things. For example, flying knee dunk and so on."
Hearing the word "flying knee", Yao Ming really became interested. His eyes suddenly lit up.
"This flying knee you are talking about...what kind of flying method is it?"
Just when Yao Ming and Curry were about to exchange their experiences on flying knee dunks, Li Ang walked in: "The break is over, get up and continue practicing shooting!"
Li Ang hurriedly picked up the basketball and urged the two young people to stand up.
Curry and Yao Ming stood up one after another, and both of them praised Li Ang.
We have the playoffs tomorrow, but we are still training so hard today.
He deserves to be Brother Li, otherwise, how can he become an All-Star player?
Li Ang actually wanted to take a rest, but...
The progress bar for training with Curry is almost full!
Therefore, Li Ang really wants to strengthen himself before the start of the playoffs.
After about half an hour of voting, Li Ang's system issued a prompt and Curry's training bar was filled!
At that moment, Li Ang put down the basketball, looked at Curry, and touched his head.
"Stephen, come on, you will definitely become one of the best players in the world! Well, today's training is over, go home!"
Yao Ming sighed. Brother Li also worked hard to help mentally retarded children regain their confidence.
He even said such unconscionable things.
To do charity, you have to learn from Brother Li.
After returning to the room, Li Ang immediately opened the system interface and then opened Curry's lottery package.
In the end, Li Ang obtained a badge that is very practical for him at this stage-Silver Quality Quick Shot!
"Badge effect: slightly increases the shooting speed without affecting the stability of the host's shooting."
To be honest, if the badge drawn was a badge like "Infinite Range" or "Sliding Shovel Dunk", it would be of little use to Li Ang.
After all, Li Ang's own long-range shooting ability is only so limited, and no matter how much badge blessing he has, he can't save it.
It's like a person who doesn't have it, no matter how many little blue pills you give him, he can't stand it.
But taking a quick shot is different. This allows Li Ang to attack without the ball in the mid-range more easily, and he can shoot right away!
