Currently, Jordan, Zhang, Malone, and Grant Hill each won the best of the month. The four of them are exactly 4 of the five players with the highest probability of MVP winning in the media predicted.

Another top 5 MVP candidate, no one expected Glenn Rice of the Hornets before the season.

This super pitcher currently ranks fourth in the media's prediction of MVP award, which is higher than Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao's ranking dropped to 5th, and O'Neal's decline after making the explosive performance.

The Lakers' lineup is so good, it's similar to Curry, who just won two consecutive MVPs in the future. After Durant's team for five consecutive years, although Curry still averaged 25+4+6 per game, Durant still scored 25+8+4 data, and his record was better, he was not selected for the first time. It's nothing but Zhang Hao and O'Neal's performance is strong. The key is that they also have Kenny Anderson, Barkley, and Magic...

Zhang Hao is pretty good, at least his teammates can't beat him to join.

As for the rookie of the month, this time, it's Marbury's turn.

With an average of 16.9 points and 8.1 assists per game in February, the Timberwolves' record is firmly above 50% of the winning rate. Marbury successfully stood out in the competition with Iverson, Raheem, Camby, Corey Kittels, Nash and others, becoming the most recognized rookie in February.

At 3:10 pm, the second day of the third phase of the cross-step change direction training was completed, and after a physical therapy, taking a shower, at 4 pm, Zhang Hao accepted an exclusive interview with the imperial court in the reception room of the team training hall.

The one who came to conduct the interview was Zhang Weiping.

I don’t know why, but Zhang Hao always feels that Zhang Weiping’s attitude towards him is different from other domestic media people.

It’s not because Zhang Weiping is a former national team basketball player, but Zhang Hao thinks it’s strange anyway.

When asked about O'Neal's injury, Zhang Hao replied: "I hope Mr. O'Neal can come back as soon as possible so that we can win more games."

"Does O'Neal's absence due to injury mean that you have more opportunities to compete with Jordan for the scoring champion?"

"Uh...I was already competing with Jordan for the scoring champion when O'Neal was not injured."

"I like your answer very much..."

Seeing that Zhang Weiping was indeed showing an admiring expression and look, Zhang Hao just felt something was wrong. Since he was admiring, why asked about such a topic of trouble?

Forget it, I’m too lazy to think about it. It’s always better to have some controversial topics than to slap them. People like Xu Jicheng and Su Qun want to make him the strongest in the world, but he is still hard to accept.

If you think about it carefully, Zhang Weiping's normal interview rhythm is similar to the time when encountering a pitiful problem when interviewing American media.

After his ideas changed in this regard, Zhang Hao also entered the rhythm of his interview...

"Aix, Marbury of the Timberwolves won the Rookie of the Month. There are already 4 players who have won this award this season. Who do you think will win the Best Rookie in the end? Compared with your rookie, who do you think is stronger?"

"I prefer Marbury and Raheem, this class and that class... I'm actually very sorry that I didn't go to the NBA for a year and then entered the NBA. It would definitely be interesting to compete with this year's rookie, but there is no way. I entered the NBA after graduating from high school and I can only compete with Jordan for the scoring title."

What a guy, Zhang Weiping, who is nearly fifty years old, wants to hit someone when he hears Zhang Hao’s answer!

Why did the style suddenly turn off?

But there is no point to refute what others say. Whether it is expression, tone, or the content of what Zhang Hao said, it seems to be saying a fact, and it is really a fact...

...

After the interview, at night, after dinner, Zhang Hao conducted an emergency stop jump shot training.

There is still one and a half months before the start of the playoffs. If you can improve your strength before the playoffs, you can improve as much as possible.

The Lakers had a day off and Zhang Hao had a day of training. On March 2, the Lakers had training arrangements.

After the All-Star Weekend, the Lakers have returned to their normal training pace and prepared for the playoffs.

At this time, if someone really declines or gets injured due to fatigue, it is fate. There is no way to do anything about it. The experience accumulated in the first half of the season must be started, and the areas that need to be supplemented are adjusted through training and competition testing.

There is definitely no way to be able to do everything, everything is fine, but you have to try your best to develop in that direction.

The new arrival of Wilkins also needs more running-in and training.

After 8 o'clock in the morning, when his teammates arrived at the training hall one after another, they saw that Zhang Hao was already practicing an emergency stop jump shot.

In this regard, his teammates have long been accustomed to this, even in the middle of the season, Zhang Hao's training has never stopped.

But the new arrival Wilkins was very surprised. He came to the training hall yesterday morning and continued to communicate with the coaching staff what he should do. He arrived at 9 o'clock in the morning and went out for lunch with the coaching staff at noon. When he finished communicating at around 2 o'clock in the afternoon and went home, Zhang Hao was still practicing.

Today, Zhang Hao is still training...

At 9 a.m., the coaching staff held a team meeting.

Without extra words, Del Harris said at the beginning: "So far this season, Ben has made great progress. His mid-to-close assisted defense and backup defense are very aggressive, and his external defense switching speed can keep up. In the next period, before Shaq returns, Ben will replace Shaq to play power forward, and protect the basket with Aix and Charles."

There will definitely be people who are dissatisfied with this arrangement, but they will not be expressed, because from the team's perspective, there is no problem. Indeed, Ben Wallace is the most "attacking" player in their team's defense, which is similar to O'Neal.

Just because of the dissatisfaction, the main reason is that Ben Wallace plays, so the small forward position will definitely be topped by Zhang Hao, the three front court positions will be fixed, and the back court will be fixed.

Ben Wallace himself was even more surprised. His playing time has been more than 15 minutes in the past three games, and he has not played that well. He played a total of 48 minutes in three games, with a total of 11 fouls. This foul rate is unmatched by anyone in the league. He was dissatisfied with his performance, but unexpectedly, he played because of "aggressiveness"!

Although it was just a temporary replacement for O'Neal to do on the defensive end, the playing time was probably not much higher than in the past three games, but the playing time had changed, but it was still very surprised and excited!

Regarding Ben Wallace's attack during O'Neal's injury phase, it's just a small adjustment today. The following is about playing style, playing time adjustments, and the goals that need to be adjusted in the next training and game...

...

After a busy day, on March 3, the first game of the new month has arrived.

Yesterday, the Oakland Warriors had already arrived in Los Angeles. At 7 pm, the Lakers' home game started.

Watching Zhang Hao pointing at Joe Smith and saying that the score is 10 points higher than Joe Smith, they asked the Warriors to admit defeat quickly, and Warriors coach Rick Adelman was not in a state of turmoil.

Adelman is already desperate about his Warriors coaching career.

There is no way out!

At the Trail Blazers, he had Drexler, Terry Burt, Kevin Dakoworth, Danny Angie, Jeromy Colsey... These seem to have similar numbers to the Warriors.

However, just because the player's personal strength is useless for Adelman, he also needs the player's playing style to suit his tactics.

Otherwise, you can only win like now, relying solely on the players' personal abilities.

So far this season, the madman Spreville averaged 24.5 points, 4.4 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.7 steals, 0.6 blocks, and is a complete offense and defense, and is a complete top three-pointer in the league.

Joe Smith, averaging 19 points, 8.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.1 blocks per game, rejected the five-year, 40 million contract renewal given by the Warriors. His personal performance made him sing a salary of 70 million for 7 years, and the media unanimously agreed that the Warriors should give it.

Chris Mullin, after the Warriors traded Tim Hardaway, his performances and the Madman have recovered. He has not been injured or sick this season, averaging 14.5 points, 4 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game.

Mark Price, performed well, averaging 11 points and 4 assists per game...

But these four stars, except Joe Smith, have the same characteristics as the outside and singles scored the ball. Three people played in pairs, and the ball was enough. In terms of the inside, Joe Smith and Oliver Miller were also enough.

However, it was impossible to beat the Princeton system that Adelman wanted.

At this time, the Warriors bosses were in a dilemma and could only accept their fate in this year of fighting for Duncan.

With a record of 24 wins and 44 losses, he is still in the Western Conference playoffs. He is competing for the eighth place in the Western Conference with 25 wins and the Clippers with 26 wins... The Warriors management has given up treatment, so how can Adelman do it.

Adelman, just how the players played...

Tonight, the Warriors' strength proves what it means to have no tactical discipline and no serious cooperation, just to score a single. When the Warriors don't play an advantage, the more they play, the more they play...

In this game between the Lakers and the Warriors, the only highlight of the fans on the scene was that Ben Wallace had a rough patch of defense against Spreville and almost started fighting, but Spreville looked at Ben Wallace's tendon flesh and really didn't dare to take action. After pushing it twice, he turned into the No. 5 Show in 1995...

104 to 93, the Lakers defeated the Warriors by 11 points, improving their record to 46 wins and 12 losses.

...

After the game, the media analyzed the Lakers' game, which was not worth analyzing, but the Lakers asked Ben Wallace to play, which aroused the interest of many people.

After analysis, most of the negative comments were made. Ben Wallace played 17 minutes tonight, made 3 fouls, and also took a technician. He looked like a pure evil guy.

Defensive enthusiasm, but lack basic skills, it is very rough and rough.

The offensive end is like a headless fly. The Warriors did a good job in the beginning of the game. After the Warriors didn't get any advantage, just like other games, the defense collapsed and no one was willing to defend well. They were thinking about how to score the ball. In this case, the Lakers deserve more points.

By screening the playing time, when Ben Wallace was not on the court, the Lakers' offense was actually very good. In the other 31 minutes, the Lakers scored 85 points, and in the 17 minutes Ben Wallace was there, the Lakers only scored 19 points.

...

On March 5, the Lakers ushered in a home game with the Nets.

Tonight, Zhang Hao fought very actively... that is, he took action wildly.

Zhang Hao no longer cared about this when encountering his old club... and this team could no longer arouse his interest.

But he played against Cory Kittles, the December rookie of the month, triggered the "Nightmare for the Rookies".

The goal is simple, the score is doubled by Corey Kitels, and the lifespan of the reward score difference is the reward.

Cory Kittles had a feeling of starting high and closing low in the rookie season. He averaged 19+4+4 in the early stage of the season, but it fell to only 16+3+3 per game at the middle of the season. It was very obvious that he encountered a rookie wall in the middle of the season.

In the past February, Corey Kittles averaged only 11 points, 2 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game, and the Nets' previous good record has also been affected.

In addition to Corey Kittles' personal encounter with the rookie wall, the Nets management also forced the loss.

Through the trade, Zhang Hao, Kenny Anderson and others, the Nets did get a certain reward. Although the combination of Kendall Jill, Jim Jackson, Cory Kittles, Robert Horry, Tony Massenberg is mini, but its strength is not bad. The substitute lineup also has players from Sam Cassel and Kharid Levitra.

The Nets are too out of the outside line as a whole, with a large number of high-quality outside players, but they are indeed very good at the outside line. They once rushed to ninth place in the Eastern Conference with 17 wins and 18 losses. Then, in January, they were urgently stopped by the Nets management.

They hoarded so many outside lines to compete for Duncan and create a comfortable environment for Duncan, rather than win.

As a result, the Nets' record dropped from 17 wins and 18 losses to 23 wins and 46 losses...

Facing his old club, Zhang Hao made 15 of 27 shots, including 3 of 11 three-pointers, plus 10 of 11 free throws, 43 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist, 4 steals and 2 blocks, helping the Lakers beat the Nets 105-97, and the Lakers' record improved to 47 wins and 12 losses.

Corey Kittles scored 13 points tonight and Zhang Hao scored 43 points. One night, including the regular life expectancy of the game, increased the life expectancy by 35 days!

Nets coach John Calipari, the NCAA coach, is going to be autistic... He can't figure out why they can obviously compete for a playoff spot, but they have to play badly.

However, he could only follow the management's arrangements and could only pin his expectations on luck.
To be continued...
