Mountain Peak System: a Path to NBA

Chapter 777 277: You ask when the god will descend, the god answers tonight_2

"In the past, I gained fame, traffic, and wealth far exceeding my actual capabilities.""Now, in just a month of games, I've completely dispelled the doubts of the team's management and coaching staff about me."

"As for the future, with 'Great Qin's' personality, I can't say I'll be his best teammate, but in his mind, I'll definitely hold a position above others."

Brown's teachings made Green, who always understood the bigger picture, become Qin Yue's second outstanding 'Kafeng' on the court in January.

In fact, Green's evolution speed even exceeded Brown's expectations.

Because during the preseason training camp, Green, who had privately complained about Qin Yue, recently had conversations like this with him: "Bro, do your hands itch? If they do, you can slap me anytime."

Green admits that after realizing the benefits of being Qin Yue's lackey, his demeanor did get a bit "cheap."

But since he decided to be a good lackey for Great Qin, why should Green care about dignity that can't be eaten?

That's right; now Green only needs to focus on when to bare his teeth on the court for his master.

"I love watching 'Great Qin' grab defensive rebounds on the court."

Moreover, during interviews, Green vigorously defended his master's righteousness in 'grabbing rebounds' on the court: "Every time the ball is in his hands, he orchestrates an awe-inspiring attack like a Magician."

However, compared to the rebounding stats guaranteed by having two good lackeys.

In January of the new year, Qin Yue's average assists per game were an unsatisfactory 9.4.

On the court, with a better shooting hand, why did Qin Yue's assists decrease despite attracting more double-teams for teammates?

The reason is simple.

The rotation strategy of Ma Long resulted in Qin Yue having different teammates every night, making it impossible to feed teammates' shooting rhythm consistency in just a few games.

As for the main five stat categories, including blocks and steals.

Even without putting full effort into defense on every play, Qin Yue still delivered historical average stats of 3.8 blocks and 1.4 steals in January.

Now, combining all of Qin Yue's major stat categories, this astounding "ancient data" not only made him an undisputed NBA Western Conference Player of the Month for January.

Furthermore, this data imposed a sense of divine pressure on the league's executives, who didn't want to give him the regular-season MVP again.

——A monthly average of 45.4 points, 21.8 rebounds, 9.4 assists, 3.8 blocks, and 1.4 steals.

Three main shooting percentages were 55%, 39%, 91%.

On the day Qin Yue was crowned Western Conference Player of the Month, ESPN commented: "In this era, no one can even touch the hem of this God of Basketball's garment!"

The New York media, initially celebrating Durant's selection as Eastern Conference Player of the Month with 31.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 4.4 assists per game, immediately went into a state of self-doubt after seeing Qin Yue's statistics: "This is simply not a performance humans can deliver on the court!"

Publicly, Durant used his main social media account to say: "Great Qin is unquestionably the MVP in my mind."

But privately, Durant used a burner account to say: "This is crazy! Can't the NBA just exclude Great Qin from the regular-season MVP discussion?"

In Durant's view, Qin Yue's participation in the MVP race seriously unbalanced the award.

Because as long as Qin Yue is there, who dares say they are truly deserving of being the NBA MVP?

"This is the tragedy of living in the same era as 'Great Qin.'" Wade, who also had hopes for the MVP this year, said to Durant in a veteran's tone after a game against the Knicks in late January.

Hearing this, the deeply frustrated Durant said: "The NBA might as well rename the MVP the 'Great Qin Award.' With him around, how can we compete?"

At that moment, Durant had no idea he would unfortunately become a prophet in the future.

Because about nine years from now, to celebrate the NBA's 75th anniversary, the league will officially rename the NBA regular-season MVP trophy the "Michael Jordan & Great Qin Award."

Of course, that's a story for nine years later.

With January ending.

Before the Houston All-Star Weekend began, Qin Yue, who showed no signs of slowing down in the great endeavor of racking up stats, officially announced his decision to participate in the three-point contest this year.

Unlike the historically failed team format of this year's All-Star Weekend.

Due to opposition from the players' union led by Qin Yue against NBA deputy commissioner Adam Silver's team format, this year's All-Star Weekend three-point contest will remain an individual event.

So, the question arises.

Why did the new GOAT, who long refused to participate in the three-point contest citing "my shooting style isn't suitable for show," suddenly decide to join?

"I hate to call you out, but isn't it because you believe the competition in this year's three-point contest is weak and you have a shot at winning?"

At Qin Yue's East Bay mansion, his close manager, Ronnie Evans, risked being reprimanded by the GOAT to joke.

To which Qin Yue, who believed in choosing the easy targets, frankly replied: "That's exactly what I think. What, you got a problem with that?"
