"I think the league should introduce rules to limit shark chopping tactics, right away!"

"This is definitely an act without competitive ethics, and it also makes the game extremely ugly."

"No matter what, I think we are actually more suitable to be winners in this game." O'Neal said to the reporters in great indignation at the post-match press conference.

After being crushed by Jiang Dongbing's shark-cutting tactic, O'Neal could no longer help but speak for himself.

Although O'Neal looks big and thick, he is actually very smart. He knows very well that this game will have a great impact on him tonight.

But not just losing a Western Conference semi-finals series, but more importantly, there will definitely be countless teams who will follow Jiang Dongbing and then use the shark-cutting tactics on themselves.

Because the effect of this tactic is really good, the key is that I can't fight it yet.

At that time, as long as you play, all teams in the league will target you with the shark-cutting tactics. Then what ball will you play and what will you be the greatest center in history?

The center with the most free throws in history is almost the same...

Now the center player with the most free throws in the NBA history is Chamberlain. He has made nearly 12,000 free throws in his career. O'Neal feels that if the Shark-cutting tactics have been used on him, he may have to tie Chamberlain in a few years.

Good guy, I got 40 free throws in one game, and that's no more than three thousand times a season...

O'Neal wisely asked the alliance to come forward to limit the use of shark-cutting tactics.

The reporters in the audience were amused and crying. Although the shark-cutting tactics seemed a little shameless, they were within the permission of the alliance rules, and there was actually no big difference from other tactics.

Based on the reporters' understanding of the NBA, it is obvious that the league is unlikely to introduce rules to restrict the shark chopping tactics, and at least it is impossible to issue them during O'Neal's peak period.

If there were no tactical restrictions on shark chopping, O'Neal would be too unsolvable. A center with a shooting percentage of nearly 80% at the basket has an indescribable destructive power.

In fact, these reporters were right. The NBA did issue rules to restrict the shark-cutting tactics, but O'Neal was almost retired at that time.

...

Jiang Dongbing also noticed O'Neal's speech at the post-match press conference and definitely didn't take it seriously. Since Jordan retired, the league headed by Stern will enter a stage of balancing all forces. It is impossible for O'Neal to have no constraints at all.

Just when the Grizzlies were in the Western Conference semi-finals with the Lakers, the Spurs and Jazz were finished, and the Spurs won two consecutive victories.

Karl Malone played very poorly in the game against the luxurious inside line composed of Duncan and Robinson, and his offensive efficiency was not high at the basket, and he relied more on mid-range shots to score.

In this case, it is obviously difficult for the Jazz to defeat the Spurs.

This result was not beyond Jiang Dongbing's expectations. Even if the Jazz were eventually swept out by the Spurs, it would not be a surprise.

...

As for the two semi-final matches in the eastern side, Jiang Dongbing was not interested in understanding them at all. No matter who they finally broke through the siege, they would just make wedding dresses for others.

Either make wedding dresses for the Spurs or make wedding dresses for their own Grizzlies. Anyway, this year's championship will never be taken away by the Eastern Conference team.

...

In the next third series, O'Neal was almost so angry that he vomited blood by Jiang Dongbing.

The Grizzlies players had an extremely hot touch at the beginning of this game, with a terrifying three-point shooting percentage, and they were always leading by a considerable score difference.

But even in this leading situation, Jiang Dongbing still did not forget to cut O'Neal, and occasionally sent O'Neal to the free throw line.

O'Neal once doubted whether Jiang Dongbing was playing tricks on himself or whether he was making fun of himself.

At the post-match press conference, O'Neal still complained to the media. The current situation became more and more worrying. If he really lost this round of series due to his free throw, O'Neal felt that this would even affect his status in the league.

The Grizzlies won the third series again, rewriting the big score to 2:1, regaining the initiative, and the shark-cutting tactics have also aroused discussions from all parties.

It is still in a mixed state of praise and criticism. Lakers fans must think this is an unforgivable tactic. The league should immediately issue rules to stop it. However, many people still believe that the team coach's ability to adapt to the situation is reflected.

According to Old Nelson, it is definitely not a wise head coach who should have any behavior that he knows that O'Neal has a flaw in free throws and does not take advantage of it.

This is like knowing that the opponent's opponent has the flaw of defending a colander, but not forcing the player to force him to play, both behaviors are the same stupid.

Old Nelson's words made Jiang Dongbing feel like he was finding a confidant. This is exactly what he thought. Even though he knew that the other party had defects in this aspect and did not use it, how could he reflect the value of his head coach?

...

After three games in the second round of the playoffs, various regular season awards were also released.

The awarding of regular season awards is the time that many practitioners are most eager for in a year. Many winning players or practitioners can increase their value by sequels.

For example, two players with the same data, those who scored for a team must be worth more than those who did not enter the best team.

Some players with inconspicuous data usually have a doubled value if they can enter the best defensive lineup or even get the honor of the best defensive player.

...

The first one to be released was the most suspenseless award of this season, namely the best coach of the year.

This honor was naturally won by Jiang Dongbing, and there was no suspense.

It is not too much to say that Jiang Dongbing is the most dazzling new coach in NBA history. Last season, the Grizzlies ranked last in the league and became the first in the league this season. With such a huge improvement span, if the best coach is not Jiang Dongbing, then this award is meaningless.

When selecting the best head coach of the year, the final look is not the team's total winnings, but the number of winnings increased.

For example, a team won 60 last season, but this season has increased to 65. Even if the record ranks first in the league, the number of wins increased by only five games, and it will be difficult for the head coach to win the best coach of the year.

The Grizzlies are definitely the team with the largest single-season record improvement since the founding of the NBA, so no matter which aspect Jiang Dongbing looks at it, he deserves this award and it is impossible for him to have any competitors.

After learning that he had won the honor of the best coach of the year, Jiang Dongbing would say he was unhappy, that would definitely be fake.

This represents my name, and now I have been written into NBA history seriously. My time travel journey is worth it.
