Chapter 19 Dark Walker
After reading a few pages, Jim gave up the idea of ​​studying this pile of information in depth. He was dizzy after reading a lot of statistics. There are so many things coming out in a short time.

"I think it's better for you to give me a brief explanation, Brad. Obviously, I didn't sleep well last night, and I'm a little dizzy now."

"These are the salary structure of the team in the next five years according to the current collective bargaining agreement, including virtual rookies and a few players you designate." Brad took out a few pages and explained to Jim. "Our salary structure is quite healthy, especially according to the set of 'magic ball theory' you put forward, using low-priced long-term high-quality free agents and rookies as the skeleton, supplemented by veterans with a basic salary to build a rotation lineup, and at the same time Use as much space as possible to sign superstars."

"This point is actually my father's idea. A 5-carat diamond is much more valuable than five 1-carat diamonds, but we also need other gemstones as a foil."

"And these are the shooting position ratios, offensive efficiency, defensive efficiency, and this...efficiency value of several teams according to your requirements. This is thanks to our volunteers. Without their help, it would be difficult for me to complete these tasks , There are too many data. Sir, I am curious how you came up with such a formula to quantify and measure the level of players?"

"This is just a lazy way to let others intuitively see what role this player has played on the field and how much impact it has on the team, whether it is positive or negative...Of course, purely relying on statistics to measure a player won't work, but we can at least eliminate some false options through this."

Jim randomly pulled out a page of statistics and pointed to the two players on it.

"For example, look at our old friend Celtics here. They have Pierce and Walker. Looking at the basic statistics alone, Pierce has 26.1 points, 6.9 rebounds and 3.2 assists, and Walker has 23.4 points, 8.9 rebounds and 5.5 assists. The two seem to be about the same. But through this The victory contribution value calculated by the formula... You see, Pierce's figure is almost twice that of Walker. If you think back to their performance on the court, who is the cornerstone and who is the cancer, is it clear at a glance? Of course, based on At your level, there is no need to look at these things now. All we have to do is seize this little opportunity and take this step early when others have not considered these aspects. Look at the Blazers, Poor Paul, what a shitty team for all that money. I think you figured that out when you were doing the Blazers analysis."

"In addition, you have also seen the trend of the team's scoring in recent years. A large number of teams are playing defense, and the average scoring per game is getting lower every year. Stern will definitely modify the rules for the sake of viewing the league. It is beneficial to attack. The team building model at that time will have a huge change compared to now. We should have prepared for the transition early. With your ingenuity, you should be able to understand why my ideal lineup is like the following. .”

Stevens nodded.

"Then, we can go and convince father."

In the second game of the finals, the 76ers made adjustments to the starting lineup. Jumaine Jones replaced Snow, who suffered a serious foot injury, as the starting shooting guard, and Iverson's position became the point guard-although it was nothing the difference.

Jumaine Jones' defense is far worse than that of Snow. When facing him, Kobe simply got what he wanted. Before the end of the first quarter, he scored 7 points on 5 of 11 shots. Constant embarrassment.

And Lu was sent on the field early, continuing to consume Iverson.

It is difficult for Iverson to catch the ball in a comfortable position, and Aaron McGee, as a helper, feels cold today and hits the iron frequently. As for Mutombo and Tyrone Hill, it is unscientific to expect them to attack.

McCloch, the shark-killing cannon fodder in the last game, became a surprise player this time. Larry Brown sent him off the bench to form a twin tower with Mutombo. McCloch faced Grant with multiple advantages such as height, weight, and age, and grabbed consecutively. The offensive rebounds and the second offensive score helped the 76ers to bite the score in the first half.

However, the resistance of the 76ers ended here. This time the Lakers sent a longer rotation lineup to ensure the rest of the main players, but Iverson did not dare to leave the field at all, and could only rely on the Lakers to strengthen when they entered the rotation lineup. Attack to recover points.

In the second half, the Lakers, who were still physically strong, began to increase their strength. They replaced Lu, who was exhausted and entangled with all his strength in the first half, and replaced Fisher, with Kobe defending Iverson.

Iverson's physical strength has not fully recovered, and it is difficult to get rid of Kobe's marking no matter whether he is attacking with the ball or without the ball, and his shooting percentage has plummeted.

On the other hand, O'Neal began to take over the game. Whether it was individual singles or the second offense after grabbing offensive rebounds, he made frequent contributions and turned the 76ers' insiders upside down.

Larry Brown had to continue to send McClochy, hoping that he would play the first half.

This time, the Zen master did not use Rodman or Grant to deal with McCloch, but replaced him with Holly because of his slow movement.

Holly's position on the field is much more flexible, sometimes cruising outside the three-point line, sometimes waiting for opportunities on the weak side, McCloch can't keep an eye on Holly who is running around the field, and O'Neal has shown what a super center should be Some are versatile. After attracting the defense, he began to support his teammates frequently. Holly succeeded in eating cakes consecutively. Even Fisher, who was squatting in the bottom corner, got several open three-pointers.

The 76ers lost sight of one another, their defense completely collapsed, and soon the point difference came to 20 points.

The Lakers replaced the main lineup and sent Reed, Stevenson and other substitutes. As a rookie, it is a very valuable experience to be able to appear in the finals.

The 76ers did not give up. Iverson was still running on the court, constantly attacking, and his teammates were also desperately defending under his inspiration, which made Reed and others feel great pressure. Lots of mistakes.

With 7 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the 76ers had narrowed the gap to 5 points.

O'Neal and Kobe returned to the court. As soon as he entered the court, O'Neal showed great power, blocked Iverson's layup and Mutombo's tip-up, and then grabbed the rebound and rushed into the opponent with full power. Dunk dunks in the penalty area scored, and the brutal scene made the home audience boil.

比赛再也没有泛起波澜,分差一直稳定在10分左右,最终在奥尼尔25分23篮板9助攻8盖帽的华丽数据支撑下,湖人以104比92再取一胜。
