The undisputed first point guard in history! The Magician ushered in the real dawn after a brief trough!

As the only NBA player who helped the team win the championship and was crowned FMVP in the season, Magic Johnson is the undisputed first among point guards, and he has only truly reached the peak this season. This issue of the column will trace back many years ago to help you understand.

Although the rookie Magician was very magical in the sixth game of the finals and won the FMVP, from the entire season, including the second-year season, the Lakers' absolute core is still Tiangou Kareem. The Magician was eliminated by the Rockets in the first round for a long time due to injury in 1981 and was eliminated by the Rockets in the first round. In the offseason, Pat Riley entered the Lakers as a coach and began to change the system with the Magician as the core of the offensive, and the Magician was activated to play a quasi-double average per game.

Of course, the Magician is not a player who mainly scores, and his height causes his dribbling center of gravity to be too bold, and he also makes many mistakes. Therefore, from the PER in the 1981-82 season, the Magician's 22.9 efficiency value is only seventh in the league, which means that after the Magician's comprehensive calculation of all positive and negative data, it is also the top in the league, but it is not the top.

At the same time, the Magic's offensive WS, that is, the victory contribution value is 8.1 in the ninth place in the league, and the victory contribution value of the defense WS is 4.8 in the seventh place in the league. Although the contribution value of the offensive and defense ends cannot reach the top of the league, he and Dr. J. Irving are the only players who have the victory contribution value of both offensive and defense ends reach the top ten in the league.

Overall, the Magic's WS victory contribution value reached 12.9, the fourth highest in the league, which means that the Magic have a strong positive effect on both offense and defense this season and their overall contribution is also the top level in the league.

The Magician was selected into the second team of the best team for his comprehensive performance. Of course, he failed to be selected into the first team and may have suffered a loss of insufficient basic data. Although he had the highest number of assists, he was the one with the least average score among the 10 players in the first and second teams of the best team. However, another characteristic of the Magician began to emerge in the playoffs this season:

The playoffs mean higher intensity of the confrontation, and most players have experienced lower data and efficiency, which is no exception to the Magician, but unlike other players. Yes, while the Magic's average score assists per game also decreased, the turnovers and rebounds and steals improved;

In the PER efficiency value of this season's playoffs, the Magic's 22.5 declined compared to the regular season, but rose to second place in the league, which means that the Magic's resistance is better than other players when facing higher intensity games;

At the same time, the Magic's WS victory contribution value in the playoffs was 2.7, and although it also dropped significantly compared to the regular season, its ranking in the league also rose to second place.

These can indicate that although the Magicians in the playoffs have also experienced a decline in efficiency and role like most players, he is relatively more reliable. The Lakers also won the championship in just 14 games with the help of the Magicians, and he was crowned the FMVP again.

For Magic Johnson, the rookie's FMVP was accidental, but this season he began to truly become a hot top super giant. Compared with the rookie period, this FMVP was truly deserved, and the Lakers have also demonstrated their strong dominance over the West for 10 consecutive years since this season.
