God of NBA point guards

Chapter 56 Iron Fist, the postman is here

Daly said seriously: "Zhou, when we are leading, you should take more bold shots. You have to know that one shot in the game is more effective than ten shots in training."

"I see."

Zhou Quan nodded hastily. It seems that playing reasonably is sometimes wrong, and he has to be the face of the Pistons.

With 10 wins and 11 losses and a winning percentage of 47.6%, the Pistons are still eighth in the Eastern Conference, only half a game away from the seventh-ranked Nets and sixth-ranked Pacers.

After playing the Suns, the Pistons flew to Los Angeles overnight, and tomorrow they will challenge the Clippers away in back-to-back games.

The Clippers had 11 wins and 10 losses before, with a winning percentage of 52.3%, ranking ninth in the Western Conference, and the Lakers were eighth, with only half a win gap.

So in this game, the Clippers suffocated and took advantage of the Pistons' lack of back-to-back physical fitness. After winning, they will be able to surpass the Lakers and squeeze into the top eight.

The Clippers are known as the star black hole of the team of hell, and the owner Sterling is not willing to invest in it. He only wants to rely on the stars to sell tickets, so the stars are not willing to come.

At the time of the draft, the Clippers, who held the No. 22 pick in the first round, sent Zhou Quan a trial training invitation. At Philip's suggestion, he didn't come.

On the afternoon of the 11th, the Pistons came to the Clippers home court for training.

The home court of the Clippers is the University of Southern California Memorial Arena. Zhou Quan is too familiar with this place, because the University of Southern California and UCLA are both in Southern California, but they are just private universities. He used to play ball and pick up girls here with his friends. .

In the evening, the game begins.

The Clippers' main lineup did not perform well, but the substitute performed well, scoring a total of 101 points.

Charles Smith, who came off the bench, was the power forward Pat Riley wanted to trade with Mark Jackson. He was in excellent form. He made 29 of 17 shots in 9 minutes and scored 23 points with free throws.

James Edwards, a former champion member of the Pistons, also scored 14 points off the bench.

Another substitute, Doc Rivers, also scored 12 points.

The Clippers' three substitutes jointly contributed 49 points, and all five substitutes scored a total of 53 points, accounting for 52.48% of the Clippers' total points in the game. However, their playing time only accounted for 46.25%, and their performance was obviously stronger than that of the main lineup.

But even though the performance of the Clippers' substitute was off the charts, the Pistons still won the game.

Although it was a back-to-back game, Joe Dumars was extremely brave and in excellent condition. He scored 43 points in 36 minutes and shot 57.7%, becoming the team's leading scorer.

周权上场32分钟，14投6，命中率42.8%，加上8罚7中，拿到19分7篮板12助攻3抢断1盖帽3失误3犯规的数据。

Although the personal offense can only be said to barely pass, the assist performance is very good, and it is not affected by back-to-back at all.

The Smiling Assassin came off the bench for 21 minutes, with a strong desire to attack. He made 14 of 7 shots, 1 of 0 three-pointer, and 6 of 4 free throws. He scored 18 points and sent 4 assists.

Rodman grabbed 18 rebounds frantically again, averaging 17.2 rebounds per game. As long as he keeps going, the rebounding champion is in his pocket.

But the Pistons won the game not in rebounds, but in assists. The team added up to 29 assists, and the Clippers had 18.

With 11 wins and 11 losses, the Pistons finally pushed their winning percentage to 50%.

At the same time, the Pacers and Nets in front both lost one after another, and the Pistons also took advantage of this to climb to the fifth place in the Eastern Conference.

The Pistons are also the only team in the top eight in the East with a winning percentage of [-]%. Among them, there are four teams with a winning percentage of more than [-]%, and the other three are below [-]% and above [-]%.

On the 12th, the away game continued. The Pistons came to the West and flew to Portland to challenge the Trail Blazers.

Previously, the Blazers had 13 wins and 8 losses, with a winning percentage of 61.9%. They were squeezed from the No. [-] throne in the West, and now the Jazz are in the No. [-] position.

In the team training in the afternoon, Zhou Quan finally completed the first training task of the emergency stop jump shot. The basic shooting skills and the emergency stop jump shot were each improved by one level.

"Three thousand times of training to upgrade one level?"

He has some doubts. If there is no system, the amount of training should be increased by one level, or even more, so the function of the system may be to force the increase?
After much deliberation, he couldn't figure it out, and forced improvement seemed impossible, because shooting skills had a foundation and physical fitness had to be achieved, that is to say, if his body couldn't keep up, shooting skills couldn't be improved without limit.

However, after the skills have been trained to a very high level, it is difficult to improve, and it is very difficult to make further progress. Even if the physical fitness supports a higher level of technology, it is still difficult to achieve the goal of improvement due to some reasons.

He thought of a possibility, the more precious place for this kind of training task of the system, maybe it is the forced improvement after the technical level reaches a high level?
If all of them are upgraded one level three thousand times in the future, then this kind of system task will be even more valuable.

In the evening, the Pistons fought against the Trail Blazers.

In this game, Zhou Quan blasted the opposing guard Terry Porter.

波特是85年的首轮24号秀，实力还不错，91年的全明星替补，本赛季场均18.1分5.8助攻1.5抢断2.3失误，助攻失误比2.5。

He is 191 centimeters tall and weighs a lot, reaching 88 kilograms, but he is nothing in front of him, and he can rely on his strength to eat hard.

First of all, he relied on his defense to prevent Porter from making 4 of 0 shots in the first quarter. 14 points.

而他自己，同样14投，命中6球，命中率42.8%，勉强及格，加上罚球得到16分5篮板9助攻3抢断1盖帽3失误3犯规的数据。

In addition to his performance, three people in the team scored 20+, namely Joe Dumars, Isiah Thomas, and Rodman.

With the team's strong offensive and defensive performance, the Pistons defeated the mighty Trail Blazers, defeated the Gliders, and won their 12th victory.

Overnight, the team rushed to Salt Lake City.

On the evening of the 14th, the Delta Center Arena.

"I've got to play, and I'm going to pay that damn kid back."

"No, Carl, don't be impulsive, your bones are still not healed, and you must not play the game now."

After six o'clock, the postman was in the locker room of the home team. He had a dispute with the head coach Jerry Sloan.

He was injured by Zhou Quan on the 15th of last month, exactly one month. Although he has a strong physique, there are at least three weeks before his comeback.

But this game was the last game of the season between the two teams. He wanted to play, but Jerry Sloan refused, so they quarreled.

"Karl, don't let your vengeance get in the way of your thinking. Just be clear about what he'll do to you if you piss that guy off again? Have you thought about it? What if you get hurt again ? It's very possible."

Jerry Sloan said very sternly.

The postman Ma Long said angrily: "I was not careful last time..."

"No, even if you are careful, you are likely to be injured again by his punch. He is in charge of fighting, and he knocked you out with one punch. He is definitely at the level of a professional boxer. You should know that. Carl, you must The whole team considers that you are the boss of this team, and everyone is watching you, so you can’t be arrogant.”

Jerry Sloan interrupted the postman angrily.

"boom!"

The angry postman turned around and punched the iron wardrobe, punching a big hole in the door.

He made up his mind, and when the season is over, he will go to practice boxing. He will fight that guy one-on-one, so that no one can stop him.

"boom!"

The door of the visiting team's locker room was suddenly pushed open, and a staff member of the Pistons stretched into his upper body nervously and shouted: "Iron Fist, the postman is here. He is aggressive and looks like he is about to cause trouble."

"what?"

A group of Piston players immediately stood up and looked at Zhou Quan.
