Basketball Fanatic: Genius Is on the Left - Chapter 1050
Chapter 1050 Four seasons worth a lifetime
The season is over and the playoffs are announced. In the two days of free time, people are most concerned about the rankings of the major lists and the predictions of the major awards.
And at this time, Zuo Li is a name that cannot be avoided.
If it is said that Zuo Li in his rookie year was still at the beginning, and his position on the major lists made the media and fans a little amazed, then in the following two years, Zuo Li has already stood at the top and made people look up to him.
No. 1 in the three rankings for two consecutive seasons, top 40 in the five rankings for three consecutive seasons, Zuo Li refreshed people’s perception time and time again.
So when this season’s list is released, people can only say one thing: get used to it.
But habit is habit. When seeing Zuo Li’s specific data, everyone still has to sigh: It’s too lazy.
In the 11-12 season, Zuo Li played 65 games in 66 games, rested one game, played all games, and averaged 36.5 minutes per game, ranking in the middle of the league, lagging behind the core or important players of all other 29 teams.
In addition, the left side only took 16 shots. He averaged 29 points, 16.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 5.5 blocks and 1 steal per game.
Zuo Li scored a total of 1885 points, 1073 rebounds, 423 assists, 358 blocks and 65 steals this season.
The above data are all behind last season.
But this is normal. First, the number of games has shrunk, and second, it is also the concession of other Knicks players that Zuo Li is often “trapped” by the curse of clocking in in the three quarters.
The playing time is proof, this is the least of his average playing time in four seasons, not even as good as many role players of other teams, and it is also the only one in the top 15 scoring list with an average playing time of less than 40 minutes.
What is reflected behind this is that in addition to the Knicks’ deep lineup, reasonable lineup, strong strength, and good rotation of German coaches, it also reflects Zuo Li’s efficiency.
This season Zuo Li averaged only 16 shots per game, and averaged 11 goals per game. The overall shooting rate was as high as 68.75%. the result of.
This season, Zuo Li made a total of 228 three-pointers, averaging 3.5 times per game, and his shooting percentage reached 48.5%. These statistics rank among the top three in the league.
In this case, the overall hit rate remains so high, which is enough to see Zuo Li’s progress.
In addition, the free throw percentage from the left side has also increased to 85.8% for the first time, leading all insiders in the league, almost twice that of Howard…
This also allowed Zuo Li to reach the top of the scoring list this season. He also became the first player in the new century to win the scoring title for three consecutive seasons.
In the scoring title, he has surpassed O’Neal, Kobe and Tracy McGrady who have won the scoring title twice, and tied McAdoo three times.
In the list of historical scoring champions, George Gervin and Iverson have only 4 times in front of him, Chamberlain has 7 times and Jordan has 10 times.
But everyone believes that the future lies with Zuo Li. After all, he is the player who won the most scoring titles in the first four years of his career.
The scoring data composed of these high-level data has made the outside world gasp in amazement.
However, Zuo Li himself is still not satisfied. Next season, besides becoming the youngest man with 10,000 points, his goal is to continue to improve his three shooting percentages.
“I still have to keep practicing. Basketball is not that simple.” After reading the statistics, Zuo Li rubbed his chin and shook his head. He still has the possibility to continue to improve.
If Durant, who has ranked second in scoring for two consecutive seasons, heard this, he would probably vomit blood.
After all, he really worked hard for the data this season, but in the end, he averaged only 28 points per game, and Zuo Li left him by as much as one point. The most uncomfortable thing is that people still say that Zuo Li didn’t use all his strength to score. , otherwise it must be over 30…
uncomfortable!
But it’s true, Zuo Li is a person who puts all his effort into both offense and defense. If he scores with all his strength, averaging 35 points per game will not be difficult for him.
And his distraction allowed him to become the rebounding leader for the fourth consecutive season, which has allowed him to tie Bill Russell and Wolf King Garnett. Rodman 1 times and Chamberlain 11 times.
Tied for fourth in history…
No wonder people once asked Rodman “When will Zuo Li equal your number of rebounds”, Rodman said carelessly: “I have seven, tie me…Zuo Li will take about 7 years, Then passed me in the eighth year.”
It now appears that this is very likely.
In addition to rebounding, Zuo Li has always been the king of blocks. Many people have already predicted this when Zuo Li entered the league. After all, his wingspan is too exaggerated.
But when Zuo Li averaged 5 blocks per game and scored 1560 blocks after four seasons, people really felt it.
This is a guy who challenged Olajuwon…
Olajuwon is currently the NBA’s historical block leader, with a total of 3,830. This number is already exaggerated, and it is not easy to get close to him. The second is Uncle Mu, who got 3,289 blocks. Apart from the two of them, there are two others who got more than 3,000 blocks. They are the third place Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and the fourth place the ancient **** Mark Inton.
Currently the closest to 3,000 blocks is Shifu Duncan. He has already got 2,756 blocks. Before he retires, 3,000 blocks should be no problem.
However, the biggest problem seems to come from Zuo Li. In the four seasons of UU Reading www.uukanshu.com, he has won more than half of Duncan’s more than a dozen seasons. According to Zuo Li’s increasingly crazy state, maybe five years later, He will enter the 3000+ block club.
Duncan never thought that one day he would worry that he would not be the number one in blocked shots in active service.
“It’s crazy, but if it’s him, it seems to make sense.” Uncle Mu said in an interview.
With unparalleled talent and a keen sense of the court, Zuo Li has long been considered a natural shot blocker.
The block leader for four consecutive seasons also made Zuo Li the first player to win the block leader for four consecutive years since the introduction of the block data in 1982.
Prior to this, Uncle Mu and Camby were both the block kings for three consecutive years.
In terms of the total number of blocked shots, Zuo Li has already reached the first place in history.
He tied Mark Inton, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Camby who also won four times, and surpassed Olajuwon, Uncle Mu, Ratliff and George Johnson three times.
In the field of blocked shots, Zuo Li is already the out-and-out king. According to ESPN statistics, Zuo Li may become the first player in history to break through 4,000 blocked shots.
And in this way, Zuo Li completed the top three rankings for three consecutive seasons.
Four seasons, top others for a lifetime.
At the same time, the left side assists 6.5 times, only 0.1 times less than Ty Lawson, ranking tied for 11th in the league, tied with Conley, one step short of entering the top ten, and the only center in the top 20.
The assist king was won by Rondo with an average of 11.7 times per game.
The master of steals was won by Paul, who averaged 2.5 times per game, and Zuo Li ranked 50th in the league. Previous Chapter Contents Bookmarks Next Chapter
