Yao Ming will be officially inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame. How strong is he?

At the peak of his career, Yao Ming was the first center in the NBA in 2009. The first person to attack and defend in the restricted area. He is the best inside scorer, the best inside central axis of NBA that year, and a center who can win the championship as a master. No matter how to deal with him (around the front, flanking), the rocket has a corresponding routine as a counterattack, and he is the only axis.

As for Yao Ming's softness, Yao Ming's lack of passing ability, and Yao Ming's poor defense ... er, I'm sorry, at the peak of Yao Ming's life, these accusations are all a long time ago.

Let's talk about the selection of Yao Ming's peak period.

In the 2002-03 season, he averaged 29 minutes and played 82 times, with a total playing time of 2383 minutes. Average 14 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists per game.

In the 2003-04 season, he averaged 33 minutes and played 82 times, with a total playing time of 2692 minutes. Average 18 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists per game.

In the 2004-05 season, he played 365,438+0 minutes per game, played 80 times and played for 2,447 minutes. Average 18 points, 8 rebounds 1 assists (McGrady's first season with the Rockets)

In the 2005-06 season, he averaged 34 minutes and played 57 times, with a total playing time of 1.949 minutes. Average 22 points 10 rebounds and 2 assists per game.

In the 2006-07 season, he averaged 34 minutes and played 48 times, with a total playing time of 1.624 minutes. Average 25 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists per game.

In the 2007-08 season, he averaged 37 minutes and played 55 times, with a total playing time of 2044 minutes. Average 22 points 1 1 rebounds and 2 assists per game. In the past three years, McGrady has been injured, so Yao Ming and his data are actually unbalanced. )

In the 2008-09 season, Yao Ming averaged 34 minutes and 77 appearances, averaging 20 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists-as the team's only trump card, he led the team to the Western Conference semifinals.

Say in stages.

Characteristics of Yao Ming in the 2002-05 season:

-compared with later, extremely flexible; At the same time, thin.

-There are quite a few shots after the start of the pick-and-roll and shots after the middle distance.

-A reminder of praise from all over America.

At this stage, Yao Ming's shortcomings are:

-Lack of strength or depth.

-Defensive details are not solid enough. It's about confrontation.

-Unstable as the first attack point.

-This is also the stage when Yao Hei likes to say that Yao Ming is "soft".

Characteristics of Yao Ming in the 2005-08 season:

-the strength soared, and a large number of left-backs started singles.

-has become one of the strongest inside finishers in the league. Give him the ball and he will score.

-truly become the overlord of the restricted area, and both ends of attack and defense can rule near the basket.

At this stage, Yao Ming's shortcomings are:

-Not good at dealing with attacks.

-The problem of slow movement makes it easy to be bypassed.

-Defensive range is insufficient, so meeting the Sun (Stoudemire) is always a headache.

-This is also the stage when people generally think that "Yao Ming is afraid of attacking, Yao Mingcan can't pass the ball, Yao Ming is afraid of bypassing the frontcourt, and Yao Ming's defense is not good".

-Fact: In recent years, the Rockets' defensive efficiency ranks sixth, third and second in the NBA. Yao Ming is a veritable devil in recent years.

It is generally believed that the peak of Yao Ming is the 2006-07 season, because the data is really the best.

But judging from the scenes and achievements, his peak was the 2008-09 season.

The reason for this is the following：

-In the 2008-09 season, Yao Ming's data declined, but that was because his playing time and weight decreased.

-In the 2005-08 season, Yao Ming existed as the "team's chief inside scorer", while in the 2008-09 season, Yao Ming was already the central axis of the team.

-The rocket routine of that year can be roughly summarized as follows:

Yao Ming plays the left waist central axis and Scola plays the right waist high position; Adelman's position is actually a bit like a triangle offense. If Yao Mingcan plays singles, he can quickly transfer the weak side. If he can't, Scola starts to attack the high position.

-In the 2008-09 season, Yao Ming's routine of "struggling for singles" was reduced, and more was to turn over cleanly and quickly. He averaged 20 points per game with an astonishing 55% shooting percentage, playing the best defense of his career.

-In Yao Ming's case, it was really "you either try your best to block Yao Ming, let the rocket hit the right waist and turn around and slap you;" Either you let Yao Ming kill you ". That year's rocket really reached the point where "we rely on Yao Ming, and if you have any routines, we can cope".

Written in February 2009:

In the 2002-05 season, Yao Ming was flexible and delicate, but not tough enough.

In the 2005-08 season, Yao Ming worked hard, but was fierce, but not healthy and flexible enough.

In the 2008-09 season, Yao Ming really overcame all kinds of problems and became the axis of the team. Less mistakes, timely transfer of the ball, effective containment, and still maintain the league's top offensive and defensive capabilities in the restricted area.

In the 2008-09 season, he was the best second team in the NBA of the year, and played against Dwight, the center of the first team in the NBA:

Yao Ming scored 22 points, 13 rebounds, and Dwight scored 13 points and 9 rebounds.

Yao Ming scored 20 points and 16 rebounds, and Dwight scored 13 points and 10 rebounds.

Moreover, he led the team to kill the Trailblazers, and the Rockets hit the second round for the first time since 1997.

Facing the Lakers, he was injured in the first game and scored 28 points and 10 rebounds. In the third game when he fell, he got 19 points and 14 rebounds. His opponent is Bynum+Gasol+Odom's first inside line Wall.

In 2009, Yao Ming was the first center in the NBA. The first person to attack and defend in the restricted area.

It's that simple.

He is the best inside scorer, the best inside central axis of NBA that year, and a center who can win the championship as a master. No matter how to deal with him (around the front, flanking), the rocket has a corresponding routine as a counterattack, and he is the only axis.

Think about it carefully: In addition to Yao Ming, there were Brooks, Scola, Cishiping and Battier. These people, the second round of the west? 54 wins in the regular season?

The Gasol brothers never did it: they led the team into the second round of the Western Conference alone.

Never.

The first giant, in 2009, deserved it.

Let's talk about his 28 points, 65,438+00 rebounds and his victory at home:

In the first three quarters, he patiently turned around and hooked back the jumper, especially many jumpers turned to the baseline. Avoid physical contact, and the hand will remain stable. It's too easy. The Lakers insider can't control him at all.

But in the fourth quarter, after the Lakers' classic ball-pressing tactics came, he could not relax and enjoy it. When you walk to the free throw line, put your hand on your knee: he has never rested, and he is very tired.

Then the moment came: Kobe and I crossed our knees and fell.

Then: He walked into the aisle, refused to go back to the dressing room, talked to the doctor, moved his legs by holding the wall, and then came back.

This is not the first time. 1970 In the seventh game of the finals, willis reed limped out of the aisle of Madison Garden and walked towards Chamberlain, and the audience roared like a tsunami. "The whole audience is crazy!" This is what new york commentators shouted to themselves at that time. He later admitted that he couldn't hear. In the first game of the 2008 finals, paul pierce walked out of the aisle, and the garden was full of mountains and tsunamis.

So there was Brooks' down save and Yao Ming's continuous free throws. Get red at Staples Arena in Chibi. On the surface of Sanjiang River, the sky is everywhere. The so-called tough guy is not stabbing his opponent with a set of gorgeous chasing swords; But still smiling, with blood in my eyes, I stood there with my hands open, even though I could hardly stand the pain in my knees. It is such a person, with the freshest blood, who can set off the east wind and fire.

His first victory over the Lakers was the real pinnacle of his career. He was injured, fell down and came back, and neither the Lakers' three insiders nor Kobe Bryant at his peak could stop him.
