In the new season, the Seattle SuperSonics are making great progress, winning five or eight games. The most uncomfortable player in the NBA right now may be Chris Paul.

The Seattle SuperSonics make headlines every day. I can’t stop being on the headlines even if I don’t want to.

Apart from Chris Paul, the team that is suffering the most right now is undoubtedly the San Antonio Spurs.

This season, after Duncan left, the Spurs were really miserable, unusually miserable.

The team lost Duncan. They thought that Bennett, the No. 1 pick, would carry the team's banner like the team's previous No. 1 pick, Duncan. However, they did not expect more than one game. Bennett's performance took them from

The fantasy was brought back to reality.

In the first game of his career, he faced the super inside combination of Oden and Gasol, with five basic statistics and four dead eggs. If his ability is not temporary, he can just forget about it and he is so weak. It is simply despairing.

So much so that after that game, many other fans of the team began to affectionately nickname Bennett "Mr. Egg".

‘Dan Zong’ is the abbreviation of ‘Always Hanging Egg’.

The Spurs have played a lot of games this season. It can be said that whether Bennett is facing strong men like Oden and Gasol or other ordinary insiders, he is really defeated at every turn.

According to ESPN statistics, Bennett is the only No. 1 pick in NBA history to have a statistic in every game.

Scores, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, each game has a data hanging egg.

In other words, he has played 12 games so far in his career, and he has not scored all five statistics in any game.

This may be common for role players, but for the No. 1 pick, it is really difficult.

How can a No. 1 pick not score, rebound and assist in a game?

It's not difficult to get both steals and blocks in a game.

Therefore, the average No. 1 pick only loses his eggs in a few games at most.

The worst person in this regard is Yao Ming.

In 2002, Yao Ming also had 4 goals as soon as he started. Yao Ming had 0 points, 2 rebounds, 0 assists and 0 steals in his first game, which was worse than Bennett's 0 points, 4 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals and 0 blocks.

Moreover, the previous games were constantly troubled, but Yao Ming had always been a substitute in the previous games. Each game only lasted about ten minutes to adapt to the NBA. When Yao Ming played the Lakers in the eighth game, he faced the strongest player at the time.

Team Lakers, as a rookie who only played eight NBA games, he came off the bench for 23 minutes, scored 20 points on 9-for-9 shooting with 100% shooting, and led the team to defeat the defending champion.

Therefore, even though Yao Ming still had bad statistics in that game, Rockets fans and everyone at the time saw Yao Ming's potential through this game against the Lakers.

Moreover, Yao Ming's first twelve games were not just his famous game. For example, in the tenth game of his career against the Mavericks, another strong team at the time, he continued to come off the bench and continued to explode and win 3,016.

In Yao Ming's eleventh game, Yao Ming finally became the starting player of the Rockets and finally adapted to the NBA. In the game against the Wizards, he scored 18 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 4 blocks.

The team won.

This also completely ended his history of hanging eggs.

As the No. 1 draft pick, it is incredible that Yao Ming failed in eleven consecutive games.

But after all, it is understandable that he started as a substitute, and even as a substitute, Yao Ming's light shines brightly.

But Bennett is different. He starts every game and plays more than 25 minutes in every game. However, his statistics are broken in every game, and he has been in trouble for twelve consecutive games, breaking Yao Ming's record in one fell swoop.

More importantly, the Spurs couldn't even see any time or possibility for Bennett to end the hanging egg.

The statistics of hanging eggs are very biased, and are generally not included in statistics or records.

But the statistics of this record are not meaningless.

If a player can obtain all five basic statistics in one game, it means that this player begins to have a comprehensive impact on the game.

This is very important. This is an important basis for whether this player can become a core player with a future and all-round influence.

If you ask a player according to the standards of a role player, this role player can only score, only rebound, only assist, and only defend, no problem.

However, the No. 1 pick must be the core of a team. Whether he is a center or an outsider, he must bear the responsibility of having a comprehensive influence on both offense and defense of the team.

When the team gives you the core treatment and starting position, you need to show that you have the ability to become the core.

So even though it took Yao Ming 11 games to end his failure, the Rockets did not consider Yao Ming as the core until the 11th game. In other words, Yao Ming actually proved that he can influence the impact in his first game as the core.

The force touches every aspect of the game.

The No. 1 pick in 2003, James took four games.

Howard, the No. 1 pick in 2004, like Yao Ming, only used one game. He gained all five statistics in his first start, and his influence touched every corner.

The No. 1 pick in 2005, Bogut, who is known as the best No. 1 pick in the past ten years, like James, achieved the goal of breaking the egg in his fourth start.

The No. 1 pick in 2006, Ye Si, is known as the strongest No. 1 pick in history. He was eliminated in just one game.

The No. 1 pick in 2007, Oden, was eliminated in just one game.

The No. 1 pick in 2008, Derrick Rose, was eliminated in his tenth game.

Griffin, the No. 1 pick in 2009, lost in the ninth game.

Bradley, the No. 1 pick in 2010, lost in the fourth game.

2011 No. 1 pick, Kyrie Irving, lost in Game 10

The No. 1 overall pick in 2012, with thick eyebrows, took off his balls in the first game.

The number one pick in 2013, Bennett, is still unknown...

It can be seen from this data that generally speaking, the earlier the eggs are removed, the greater the influence on both offense and defense.

Among them, the inner line is easier to escape than the outer line.

Yees is considered an anomaly among outsiders. He successfully escaped in the first game, and his future development has also proved that he is the most influential outsider on both offense and defense in NBA history.

It is worth mentioning that there are two very representative and influential players in NBA history, both inside and outside the NBA. Duncan lost his eggs in the second game, and Pippen also lost his eggs in the second game.

Especially Pippen. Pippen was an outside shooter, and when he had not yet gained the core status of the team, his success as a substitute in his second game as a rookie was miraculous, and his future development in the NBA will not disappoint him.

The magic of egg removal.

Pippen may not be the strongest perimeter player in NBA history, but he is definitely one of the most influential perimeter stars on both offense and defense.

As for players like Yao Ming, Oden, Howard, and Nongmei who lost their eggs in the first game, it's hard to say what Nongmei's future will be like. The remaining three have proven their huge influence on both offense and defense.

As for Griffin, a player who took nine games to break free, Griffin's shortcomings on the defensive end can now be clearly seen.

Therefore, although this indicator data is not common, it is indeed very valuable for reference.

And now, Bennett has reached the twelfth game in which he started and played the core role, and he has not yet shed his eggs...

Moreover, he is not an outside line, he is an inside line...

In other words, according to the significance of this statistics, he is likely to be unable to attack or defend in the future, and will be useless...

This is very, very scary.

Of course, this is very scary for Spurs fans.

To Bennett, it seemed to mean just that.

The current No. 1 pick's contract is four years and 40 million. Bennett now has a big contract, plays in games, and lives in a big house. His life has completely reached a stage where he can enjoy it.

If you ask me to play, I will play. If you don’t want me to play, then I won’t play.

Yes, this is what makes Spurs fans and everyone at Spurs most desperate.

It’s not that Bennett doesn’t have any talent at all. If he really didn’t have any talent, it’s impossible for the Spurs to catch him blindly.

After he was constantly humiliated on the court, he really had no fighting spirit to resist his fate.

This is completely different from how everyone worked hard to catch up after the Cavaliers suffered a disastrous defeat in the first game of the season.

Bennett has played twelve games now, averaging 30 minutes per game, but his data is only 86. 86 seems to be a good figure for a rookie.

If it is just a substitute rookie, a role player who only plays 20 minutes, of course there is no problem.

However, Bennett is the No. 1 pick in the core tactical position. This data is not to mention compared with the No. 2 pick Antetokounmpo. Antetokounmpo is now 2,085. This is already a data that belongs to another level.

.

Among the rookies who have played core positions this year, Benne is especially compared to Antetokounmpo, and even Oladipo cannot compare. Oladipo's current data is 1,455, and Trey Burke also has 136.

Not to mention compared with these core players, it can't even be compared with hot rookies like Magic Johnson who are playing as substitutes.

The little magician who is playing as a substitute for the Lakers this season is currently averaging 7 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists, 1 steal and 1 block per game. This is not the data from the core position, but the data from playing 22 minutes as a substitute.

.

Even if he doesn't compare with these equally popular rookies, let's compare him with himself.

Bennett's 85 data this season, the small statistics in it are really worse than this 85.

For example, as an inside player, Barkley Jr. shot only 35% from the field and 18% from three-point range. In the history of the NBA, the last player to achieve such a shooting rate had to go back to his rookie period.

Rondo!

Damn it, the Spurs lost a peak Rondo and gained a rookie Rondo. Do you want to laugh or cry?

For Popovich, this is definitely going to be tearful.

He and the Spurs are indeed very, very uncomfortable right now.

Bennett was the P they had arranged for themselves, so even if they were in tears, they still had to finish the fight.
