Mountain Peak System: a Path to NBA-Chapter 628 - 214: The Great "411" Project, Where There Is Oppression, There Is Resistance (Requesting Monthly Tickets!)

Before the All-Star weekend arrived, the Warriors still topped the West.

Since the competition in the West this year wasn't as fierce as in previous years, after entering February, to satisfy Brown's vanity, Qin Yue even helped him boost his stats in several consecutive games.

Brown wanted to greet his first All-Star trip of his career with more impressive stats.

Regarding this, Qin Yue, who always pampered Brown, said, "Kwame, I have no problem helping you boost your stats, but after the All-Star weekend, you have to help me with mine."

Brown laughed and said, "You're already recognized as the GOAT, why do you still care about personal stats?"

Qin Yue shook his head and said, "Because I'm planning a project, a great project that will not only boost everyone's confidence but also make life enjoyable."

"What project?"

"You can call it the '411 Project'."

Under Qin Yue's explanation, Brown roughly understood what the "411 Project" meant.

In simple terms, Qin Yue plans to hit 40,000 career regular-season points, 10,000 rebounds, and 10,000 assists before his retirement.

Though in this life, having witnessed the unfortunate end of many legendary stars, Qin Yue doesn't plan to outlast them like a turtle.

But with Qin Yue's current ability to boost stats, he is confident in completing the entire construction of the great "411 Project" before the end of his career.

Oh spit!

With skills that earn the stats, how can it be considered boosting?

In any case, judging by Qin Yue's current career stats, as long as he maintains efficiency during the rest of his peak career, surpassing 10,000 career rebounds and assists is just a matter of time.

Only 40,000 points is quite tricky.

Because barring any accidents...

Qin Yue, who only wants to completely dominate the NBA for the next ten years, will officially end his career in 2020.

Therefore, unlike James who can achieve it by enduring long service time, if Qin Yue wants to hit 40,000 points before his retirement...

He must ensure an average score of 35 points per game each season from now on.

A regular-season average of 35 points, for the current Qin Yue, doesn't seem so difficult to achieve.

After all, with the increasing number of matches in recent years in the NBA, it has become more possible for stars to achieve impressive scoring stats on the court.

In this era more encouraging of offense, Qin Yue has every reason to believe he can do better than the future "Soft Emperor" Embiid.

But...

Considering this "Cosmic Warriors" team often blows out games, to consistently boost high scores on the court, Qin Yue would also need to consider his teammates' willingness.

Therefore, Qin Yue needs more than just Brown's help?

In February, after deciding to challenge the "411 Project" and by doing so, paving his own way and leaving no room for others, Qin Yue immediately approached team coach Mike Malone.

"Mike, you should still remember how we missed the three-peat before, right?" Qin Yue hinted to Malone.

Hearing this, Malone, who had already forgotten the pain of the failed three-peat, suddenly recalled the heart-wrenching pain that plagued him whenever he thought about it.

Seeing this, Qin Yue took the opportunity to suggest, "Mike, you know, we have many veterans on our team, so if we want to enter the playoffs with the best lineup, we should plan more rest games for them in the upcoming matches."

"But won't that put too much pressure on you?" After pondering for a while, Malone said.

"Pressure? Mike, you know I never fear pressure."

Under Qin Yue's persuasion...

Although it sounded quite ridiculous, considering this Warriors team indeed has several aging veterans, to avoid large-scale injuries before the playoffs, Malone eventually agreed to this rotation plan.

However, agreeing is one thing...

Malone still insisted that this rotation plan can only be described as going against the conventional practice.

Because during the regular season, it's usually the star players who rest.

With the NBA game pace increasing, to maintain form, some stars even take proactive rest using "smart groin" tactics.

Yet now, the Warriors are doing the opposite.

They not only chose to have Qin Yue shoulder everything alone, but they also left the valuable staggered travel opportunities to other players on the team.

However, for Qin Yue, who wants to complete the "411 Project" as soon as possible, this is the only way he can think of.

After all, Qin Yue can't choose to ruin the team's chemistry by aggressively boosting stats for the sake of the "411 Project".

In Qin Yue's eyes, if playing isn't about being the top winner, then no matter how impressive the stats, it's just the emperor's new clothes.

Therefore...

Since letting teammates rest can ensure their fighting power entering the playoffs and also provide more opportunities for Qin Yue to boost his stats...

Isn't it just a matter of working himself harder?

Hard work is the solution!

Anyway, the criticism afterward would fall on Malone, who only overworks the star players! 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

February 16.

The last game before the All-Star weekend ended.

Having been selected for the All-Star game as a starter for the fifth time in his career, and being the All-Star vote leader for two consecutive years, Qin Yue officially arrived in Los Angeles with the Warriors players who would participate in the All-Star weekend.

Because Curry, who was selected for the Rookie Challenge, also registered for the Skills Challenge and the Three-Point Contest.
