NBA: I am the god of basketball

Chapter 81 15 consecutive victories, the sun is going to the sky?

The strength of the Heat at this time is very different from when they won the championship a few months ago.

Winning the championship in 06 seemed to exhaust all of O'Neal's energy, and it was also the last good performance of his approaching the end of his career.

06-07赛季，奥尼尔场均数据下滑到17分7篮板，职业生涯首次跌破场均20+得分。

Not only that, but injuries also began to keep coming. Throughout the 06-07 season, O'Neal only played 40 games in total.

It’s not just O’Neal and Wade who are suffering from injuries for the Heat. This season, his knee problems have gradually emerged. Although he averaged 27 points, 4.7 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game in the regular season, he played extremely well, but the number of games he played was very low. There are only 51 games, not much better than O'Neal.

王超记得很清楚，这支热火队在06-07赛季常规赛最终的战绩是44胜38负，排在东部第四，随后在季后赛首轮被公牛队4:0横扫淘汰出局。

The Sharks, who were old and incapable of fighting, were traded away by the Heat in the middle of the subsequent season, and the big wronged species who chose to take over happened to be the Suns who wanted a super center to fight Duncan inside.

The game between the Suns and the Heat happened to be played when both Wade and O'Neal were injured.

The two strongest core players in the team are absent, how can the Heat have combat effectiveness?
Although the Heat still have Hall of Fame players Alonzo Mourning and Gary Payton in their roster, it is now 06, not 96, and both of them, whose athletic ability has declined sharply with age, are both Has become a fringe figure on the team, and staying with the Heat just wants to see if he can win another championship ring with the team.

Not surprisingly, Gary Payton will choose to retire after this season, and Mourning will also choose to retire and leave the league after persisting for half a season.

For the Suns, facing such a Heat team is a light and easy game, which is not much different from the Grizzlies, Supersonics, Celtics and other teams at the bottom of the league.

108:89, another easy victory, the Suns won their 15th consecutive victory, racing all the way on the winning streak.

The league is shocked, the Suns are going to heaven!
So far in the regular season, the Suns have played 21 games, and in these 21 games, they have achieved a record of 19 wins and 2 losses, with a winning rate of 90%!

This kind of start is very rare in the history of the league. If the Suns can continue to play the entire regular season with this winning percentage, the Bulls' record of 72 wins and 10 losses in the regular season will be broken!
Of course, no one thinks that the strength of the Suns is really as strong as Jordan's invincible Bulls Dynasty. Although they are amazed by the Suns' winning streak, most people think that the main reason why the Suns can advance all the way is the opponents in the previous schedule. The reason is not strong enough.

Among the teams that the Suns played against before, only the Mavericks, the Jazz, and the Spurs can be regarded as a real strong team. After two games, they won the Spurs only because of Wang Chao's overwhelming touch.

They are also Western teams, and they have to play against each other three times in the regular season, and the Pistons and Cavaliers in the East have not played against the Suns.

Once the opponent's strength level increases, the Suns' winning percentage will inevitably begin to decline, and there is absolutely no way to maintain such an exaggerated winning percentage at this stage.

Of course, with such a bright start, as long as the Suns can maintain the health of all members of the team this season, at least 60 wins are guaranteed, and if they play a little more stably, it is not impossible for the Suns to win more than 65 wins.

In the Suns team, with the deepening of the schedule, the distribution of ball rights has basically stabilized.

As expected by Wang Chao, the recovering Stoudemire still became the player with the most shots per game in the team, with an average of 14.4 shots per game and an average of 21.2 points and 8.9 rebounds per game.

This is slightly different from Wang Chao's memory. Originally, Stoudemire should have averaged just over 06 points per game in the regular season in the 07-20 season. At this point, no team dares to shrink the line of defense easily.

And when power forward Marion also pulls out the outside line, the space inside the line is completely vacated, forming an environment that is enough for Stoudemire to face the frame 1v1.

The offensive environment has improved, and Stoudemire's shots have naturally increased.

This is already considered good. Two seasons ago, Stoudemire just rose in the 04-05 season. When he averaged 26 points per game in the regular season, he averaged 16.7 shots per game.

……

In the Suns, Barbosa is the second most shot.

As the team's best sixth man, Barbosa averaged 32.7 minutes per game, some of which were overlapped with the main starters, but at least half of them were the time when he led the bench when the substitutes came on.

With the main players, Barbosa certainly doesn't have many chances to make a move, but in the substitute lineup, he is the brightest guy, enjoying unlimited shooting rights.

Because of this, Barbosa averaged 13.8 shots per game and 18.1 points per game, ranking third in the team.

After Barbosa, Marion averaged 13.2 shots per game. Marion's shots dropped a lot compared to last season's 16.9, but there is no way. Who made the Suns score so many points this season?
His shooting percentage from outside the three-point line is not high, only in the early 30% range. Most of his offenses rely on empty cuts to the basket to receive teammates' assists for layups or open shots. Only 13.2 points.

Wang Chao ranks No.4 in the number of shots per game in the team, with an average of about 12.5 shots per game, 11.2 of which are outside the three-point line, and his three-point shooting rate is as high as 49%, which also allows him to rely on 12.5 shots. He averaged 19.2 points per game, ranking second in the team's scoring list.

There is no doubt that Wang Chao's scoring efficiency is enough to satisfy the head coach of any team. During this time, D'Antoni smiled whenever he saw Wang Chao. Looking at the entire league, he averaged 19.2 points per game, and almost no Can a player who occupies the ball and doesn't take many shots find a second one?If you add his annual salary of less than 50, I am afraid that it is unique in the history of the league.
