And under such a schedule, is there no way for the team to get more rest time?
Of course not, they still have a way, but this way is not suitable for all teams.
That is, all games are decided quickly, don't delay, just sweep if you can sweep.
Only in this way can we save more time to rest and have more physical fitness to deal with the opponents in the next round.
But for a team that can achieve this level, the threshold can be imagined, unless the team's strength is strong enough!
…
On the second day after all games in the league ended, many media used "Goodbye, Devil's Season!" as the headline.
Even the New York Times, they didn't wrap up the season with "defending," "champion," etc.
It is true that too many stars have fallen in this shrinking season, and a large number of player injuries have caused heavy losses to many teams in the league.
And the result of this lockout was finally figured out.
As Lian Dao said, neither labor nor management wins, and both sides suffer!
But Lian Dao should be regarded as the winner among them, such as the "Lian Dao Clause", which can also be regarded as the renaming board of the "Ross Clause" in history.
However, the first beneficiary of the "Liandao Clause" is not Lian Dao.
As in history, the first beneficiary of the "Ross Clause" was not Ross, but Du Xiaoshuai.
Because of the standard players, he is the only player who executed the second contract of his career in the 2011-2012 season.
In addition to the "cheap rice clause", there is the Knicks regular season schedule.
Since the Knicks had a good record last season, the league will take more care of the schedule this season.
The Knicks are one of the few teams in the league with back-to-backs.
This also makes the Knicks' injuries less serious.
At the same time, the complete lineup also laid a solid foundation for their next journey to defend the title.
…
With the end of the 2011-2012 season regular season.
Lian Dao finally averaged 32.1 points, 8 rebounds, 11.8 assists, 2.1 steals and 1.3 blocks per game at the MVP level this season.
Moreover, Lian Dao still played the same offensive efficiency as last season, and entered the "190" club for two consecutive seasons.
Even if the season shrinks, it has not affected his performance.
At the same time, Lian Dao won the assists title of the season leading Rajon Rondo by 0.1 assists per game.
However, Lian Dao's scoring this season has actually dropped a lot compared to the previous season.
The main reason is that this season, the Knicks played a lot of games in the three quarters, and it was caused by Lian Dao's paddling in some games.
But even so, Lian Dao is still the league's scoring leader, averaging 4.1 points more than the second-placed Durant.
James was originally ranked second before, but in the last few games of the season, the Heat also implemented a rotation, which caused him to be overtaken by Durant in scoring average.
Although Lian Dao has regressed compared to last season in terms of season data, he is still a T0 star in the league.

Moreover, Lian Dao also became the second player in NBA history to simultaneously win scoring and assists in a single season.
It is too difficult to have the assists and scoring champions at the same time!
This achievement was not accomplished even by Michael Jordan.
And there was only one person in front of Lian Dao.
Before Lian Dao, Archibald was the only player in history who had both scoring and assists in a single season.
In the 1972-73 season, Archibald won the scoring title with 34 points per game and the assists title with 11.4 assists per game.
This is a legend of the Kings, and many fans have never heard of this player.
After he created this great record, he is not often mentioned by fans.
It is because although he won the scoring + assists title in a single season that year.
However, the Kings didn't even make the playoffs that year, ranking last in the Midwest Division.
Back then, Archibald averaged 46 minutes per game, which meant that he also stayed on the court for a lot of garbage time.
Therefore, fans and the media all think that this record was made by him.
However, Lian Dao is not like Archibald.
You know, under the leadership of Lian Dao, the Knicks have the best record in the league.
Therefore, many media and fans are convinced that Lian Dao won the scoring + assists title in a single season.
Although some media criticized Lian Dao's behavior of collecting assists on the court at the end of the season, it was irrelevant.
Moreover, almost all Knicks fans directly stood up to support Lian Dao and spoke for him.
After all, there is nothing wrong with making the game look good and leading the team to victory.
Relying on the status of the scoring leader + assist leader in a single season, coupled with the Knicks' first record in the league, Lian Dao has also locked in the MVP of this season in advance.
Even James and Durant fans don't hold out hope.
This year's MVP must be Lian Dao's, and James and Durant can't stand each other.
The only suspense now is whether Lian Dao can become the first unanimous MVP in NBA history!
It is not an easy task to get the MVP with unanimous votes.
Even though Lian Dao led the Knicks to a record of 68 wins last season, and Lian Dao averaged 35.6 points per game, he was not unanimously elected MVP.
Even during Jordan's dominant years, he never achieved anything like being unanimously elected MVP.
The closest unanimous MVP is the 2000 "Shark" O'Neal.
At the time, he was just one vote away from becoming the first unanimous MVP in NBA history.
But that vote was voted for Allen Iverson by a reporter.
Iverson was also good enough that season, but there is still some gap compared to O'Neal.
Everyone knows, everyone understands, but they can't stop others from wanting to disgust you.
To this day, O'Neal still hasn't forgiven the reporter after he retired.
After all, his small move made O'Neal's career miss a great achievement.
Therefore, it is not easy to get the unanimous MVP.

What's more, Lian Dao is still a foreign player, he is not yet a player under Nike, and many media don't like Lian Dao.
Under such circumstances, it is even more impossible for Lian Dao to win the MVP unanimously.
However, as soon as the regular season ended, the MVP title was almost locked, which has proved the strength and influence of Lian Dao.
…
Before the start of the playoffs, the league announced its first awards of the season.
Most Improved Player Award, Best Sixth Man Award and Best Head Coach.
The Most Improved Player award was won by Ryan Anderson, a stretch four-position power forward of the Magic.
Ryan Anderson, he was selected by the Nets with the 21st overall pick in the first round of 2008. He showed good shooting ability in his rookie season and is a typical spatial 4th position.
After playing for one season, he was traded to the Magic.
It was Howard's prime. His tactical significance in the team is very important, and his statistics are also increasing year by year.
On the basis of averaging 10.6 points and 5.5 rebounds per game last season, this year he averaged 16.1 points and 7.7 rebounds per game. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
Won the Most Improved Player Award for this season.
The player who won the best sixth man is James Harden who has a good friendship with Lian Dao.
This season with the Oklahoma City Thunder, Harden averaged 31.4 minutes per game.
He averaged 16.8 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1 steal and 0.2 blocks per game.
Coupled with the Thunder's record, there is no problem for Harden to be the best sixth man of the season.
The best head coach was given to Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau.
This is also a multi-party consideration for media voting. Thibodeau had hoped to wrestle with D'Antoni last season.
After all, the progress of the Bulls last season is obvious to all.
However, the Knicks are really a bit of a monster, and they scored 68 wins.
Coupled with the 09-10 season, the Knicks are the team with the most improved record in the league.
But the best coach award was given to Scott Brooks of the Oklahoma City Thunder.
At that time, it caused dissatisfaction among the Knicks.
So with the blessing of the Knicks record last season, D'Antoni finally defeated Thibodeau.
This season, the Bulls still won 50 wins despite the injury of the team's core Derrick Rose, which also shows Thibodeau's strength.
Only D'Antoni and Popovich can compete with Thibodeau for the best coach award.
D'Antoni won the best coach award last season.
So although the Knicks still have the best record in the league this season, D'Antoni is not considered in the votes of these reporters.
This is like an unwritten rule. The NBA seems to have never had a head coach who has won the best coach award for two consecutive years.
