NBA: I'm really not a point guard god

Although LeBron James is known as the proud son of heaven, his family situation does not allow him to often watch NBA games.

Especially this kind of game away from Ohio State.

the whole game.

Five Cavaliers scored in double figures and three rebounded in double figures.

The Wizards also didn't shoot very well overall.

However, the game was still lost.

Jordan played 33 minutes and routinely scored 34 points.

Zhou Yao made 14 of 5 shots, missed all 9 of his shots, and even had a three-point shot.

But he still had 14 shots.

On the one hand, Zhou Yao has a lot of ball possessions. If he wants to shoot, it is very convenient.

On the other hand, even someone like James, who rarely gets a chance to watch a Wizards game, can tell.

The boss of the team, Jordan, and the head coach Collins have such a preference, no, it should be said that they dote on Zhou Yao.

Zhou Yao is only a sophomore.

Before the start of this game, Zhou Yao had missed a full 300 shots this season.

Averaged 6.25 missed shots per game.

For a rookie who doesn't hit as much, it's almost a crime.

Almost all the media are attacking Zhou Yao's shooting.

However, Zhou Yao has not only always sat firmly in the starting position of the Wizards.

Every game has ample playing time.

Moreover, he has a good shot every game.

Sometimes, seeing Zhou Yao's reluctance to shoot, Jordan would even turn himself into a point guard and pass the ball to Zhou Yao.

And encourage him to shoot.

This kind of thing is completely unthinkable for James.

Let alone in the NBA.

Even in high school, if James dared to do this, the coach would unceremoniously replace him.

James even wondered if he would not even have the chance to play in the NBA if he did what Zhou Yao did.

Of course, if given the chance.

James also doesn't think his score will be as low as Zhou Yao's.

If you become the core of the team holding the ball.

I will definitely make my data more beautiful.

I want to get more points and send out more assists.

There are also blocks, James feels that he will not be worse than Zhou Yao.

It's just that Zhou Yao's rebounds this season are just too bad.

Even worse than rebounds is Zhou Yao's steals.

Zhou Yao's statistics for this game are 14 points, 19 rebounds, 13 assists, 6 steals, and 2 blocks.

So far this season.

Zhou Yao averaged less than 12.9 points per game.

In James' view, even in his rookie season, he would not only have such data.

Averaged 1.5 blocks per game.

James is confident.

His block will appear at a more critical moment, at least a moment when fans pay more attention.

Moreover, if you work hard, it is only 1.5 blocks, and it may not be impossible.

Averaged nearly 10.9 assists per game.

In James' view, it is somewhat difficult.

However, for some reason this season, everyone's assists are generally not many.

That's why Zhou Yao's stats stand out.

If he strengthens his passing practice, he may not lose to Zhou Yao.

It's just that he averaged more than 14.2 rebounds per game.

Is this a stat that a point guard can get?

James plays small forward, but he doesn't think he can get this kind of rebounds.

That is to say, this year, Ben Wallace, who averaged more than 15 rebounds per game, is suppressing it.

Otherwise, Zhou Yao might even grab the rebounding champion.

In the past four seasons, Zhou Yao's current data is already the rebounding leader.

The last person who could suppress Zhou Yao was Dennis Rodman, who was the rebounding champion for 7 consecutive times.

Some people are already saying that Zhou Yao probably participated in a fake Pippen training camp back then.

Instead, he went to Rodman's training camp.

Otherwise, as a guard, how could he have such a brutal rebound count.

This leaves James with almost no urge to challenge.

In other words, last season Zhou Yao had already reached the rebounding list.

This season, it doesn't seem surprising that he really won the rebounding title.

It's just that those inside players don't know how to feel.

And if it is said that Zhou Yao's rebounding ability still only scares James.

Then Zhou Yao's stealing ability made James even have no fear.

Averaged nearly 5.7 steals per game.

The entire career is only a little over a year.

Has scored 684 steals.

Some people have already predicted that before the end of this season, Zhou Yao's total steals will definitely reach the top 100 in history.

As long as Zhou Yao's career is not particularly short.

Zhou Yao's total steals surpassed his master Jordan, who also ranked second in the total steals list, so there should be no problem.

If Zhou Yao's sports career is a little longer, it is possible to surpass the number one Stockton.

The important thing is that Zhou Yao is still very young and has a bright future.

This made James unable to even bring up the urge to catch up.

Of course, this game also made James more certain of one thing.

That's how determined the Cavaliers are to get him.

The final stage of the game.

The Wizards' lead is not too much.

In the last 2 minutes, the Wizards only led by 8 points.

Although there is not enough time to speak, there is still some.

In particular, the Wizards at the time had only a group of substitutes on the court.

But the Cavaliers actually replaced the main force.

There is absolutely no point in chasing points.

It's nice to play for your hometown team.

……

In this game, there was another person who caught James' attention.

Carlos Boozer of the Wizards.

19 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block.

Averaged 14.3 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 0.9 steals and 2 blocks per game.

Reached the cap list as a rookie.

In the league, the debate about who is the best rookie of the year is also constantly fermenting.

Mainly concentrated on the 3 inside players.

The Wizards' Boozer, the Suns' Stoudemire, and the Rockets' Yao Ming.

The data of the three are actually almost the same.

The next game may change.

But unless someone is injured, or someone explodes suddenly.

Otherwise, the data of the three players will be roughly the same by the end of the regular season.

In contrast, the Wizards are clearly the team with the better record.

However, Yao Ming is the No. 9 pick this year, and Stoudemire is also the No. [-] pick in the first round.

They're all good lottery picks.

Boozer was only selected by the Wizards with the 25th pick in the first round.

All first-round picks.

Yao next year's salary is 386 million, and Stoudemire also has 177 million.

Boozer only has 83.

If Boozer gets the best rookie in the end, then the Wizards will really make a lot of money.

The Wizards' management is bound to be highly sought after.

Last year's best rookie was Zhou Yao, who was the No. [-] pick.

If James himself becomes the No. [-] pick, he should be careful.

It's still early for the draft.

But this year has been said by some to be the year of the draft.

After entering the league, James has to work harder.

Don't get caught out by a Boozer...
