After the first game of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the ratings were so low that Stern had a headache.
No team scored more than 75 points in the game, which Stern did not expect.
He overestimated the bottom line of the Bulls and Pistons!
However, in the past few years, even if you look at the entire history of the nba, it has been the most tightly defended years.
In fact, the scores of the nba are not getting lower as they get older.
Probably from 1997 to 2003, the nba's scoring average dropped to a freezing point, averaging only about 95 points per game.
Before 1997, the scoring average in each season was more than 100 points.
The drop in scores this year has been particularly pronounced.
?Because of the introduction of the offensive three-second rule this year, coupled with the previous cancellation of illegal defense, the position of the center has been continuously restricted and weakened.
The former center forward squatted in the penalty area, that was one-on-one abuse, with high efficiency and high scores.
However, most of the current centers can only attack from the edge of the penalty area. And as long as you have some strength, there are usually two or three people around you, and you will be double-teamed as soon as you get the ball.
Gone are the days of super centers.
But while the center is weakened, the offensive efficiency of the outside stars has not improved, which has led to a decline in the overall scoring average of the game.
Look at the top five shooting guards, which one is not an iron wall?
Iverson has a hit rate of more than 30% all the year round, and Kobe is so hard that O'Neal can swipe until he vomits. People often say that if you give Li Ang a Kobe, you don't know if you will win the championship, but the rebounding champion will definitely be able to monopolize directly.
Although Maizi scored high, his hit rate also depends on his mood. And the shooting percentage in the second half is usually unimaginably low.
And Li Anghis three-pointer may not even touch the frame!
Only Carter is slightly better.
Therefore, low scoring is actually not just a problem with the Bulls and Pistons, but a common problem in this era.
It's just that the score between the Bulls and the Pistons is relatively low.
Stern was thinking, if this continues, the entire league will be affected.
In the future, everyone will really learn from the Pistons. If you can't sign a superstar, you will sign a defensive blue-collar. If you put five defensive players on the court, no one will work.
In the future, if the score in each game is in the 70s to 80s, will this business still work?
Stern must untie the perimeter players so they can score more easily.
Of course, this also depends on the results of this season.
Although Stern thinks the probability is not high, in case, in case the Pistons really rely on defense to hit the finals and cause trouble for the Lakers, it will inevitably trigger a wave of defense in the league.
When the time comes, he may just have to get the nba into the next version.
Even if Li Ang and Yao Ming were killed, the playoff matchup between the two Chinese would subtly affect the change of NBA rules.
On the second day after the game with the Bulls, Li Ang just woke up and felt that his whole body was very heavy.
It is true that I am exhausted.
Boy Atai, his martial arts have improved a lot over the years.
Moreover, this rule is really suitable for an attacking defender like Artest now.
Although the game was tough, yesterday's game yardage proved that it is indeed possible to win the game if you play hard against the Bulls.
In the next few games, this tactical idea is estimated to be used all the time.
Thinking about having to torture each other with the bull for several times, Li Ang was physically and mentally exhausted.
After waking up, Li Ang turned on the TV and watched yesterday's sports news.
When talking about the game between the Bulls and the Pistons, the host probably talked about Li Ang's bloody game and the final grabbing of Yao Ming.
Basically nothing else was mentioned.
It seems that this round of the series is indeed very unpopular with fans and TV stations.
And most of the rest of the time, the host was talking about the battle between the Spurs and the Lakers yesterday.
In comparison, the game between the Lakers and the Spurs is indeed much more exciting visually.
Li Ang only found out after watching TV that the Lakers actually lost yesterday.
No The person I was waiting for didn't come again?
Although Li Ang knew that the Lakers were defeated by the Spurs in the original history, but for some reason, Li Ang still hoped that the Lakers would win and win all the way to the finals.
When did the Lakers' consecutive championships start? It was from the 4-1 victory over Mammoth in 2001A number 8.
Although he is annoying, perverted, disgusting, paranoid, petty and
But he is still a good teammate!
It's better than Li Ang who can't even shoot a three-pointer.
Stern watched Li Ang and Kobe celebrating wildly on TV, and took a deep breath.
The Lakers and Pistons may really have a battle. And the Pistons might really cause trouble for the Lakers.
At this moment Li Ang finally broke free from the crowd, his whole body was wet.
Don't get me wrong, it was wet from everyone's sweat.
Facing the reporters who came up, Li Ang shouted without thinking: "We are going to the finals!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, Li Ang scratched his head in embarrassment.
No, did I leave something behind? It seems that the next round is not the finals yet?
Kidd, who was watching TV, had a bruise, Li Ang, are you polite?
Can you respect Lao Tzu, the former eastern king!
Last season's Eastern Conference champions, the Nets, really have no sense of existence.
