9 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist—and they still lost the game.
After the game, he received only 27 Peak Points.
[Peak Points: 108/7079]
However, thanks to his games against the Utah Jazz and Milwaukee Bucks, Zhou Ze was named the NBA Western Conference Rookie of the Week.
This time, Kobe missed out on NBA Player of the Week. The award went to the Clippers' franchise star—the captain, "Elton Brand."
The Eastern Conference Player of the Week was the Hawks' king—Joe Johnson.
"Hey... doesn't this damn NBA know how to hype up rookies?"
"They haven't given me Player of the Week even once!"
"What a bunch of bastards!"
Upon hearing the news, Zhou Ze couldn't help grumbling inwardly about the voting media.
The reward for Rookie of the Week was 300 Peak Points.

Two draws gave him 2 random attribute points, which he added to [Ball Speed], raising it to 85 (125).
A Ball Speed of 85 was no longer slow for a power forward. It was comparable to Blake Griffin in his early Detroit Pistons days.
At the same time, the past week of rebounding special training had further improved Zhou Ze's rebounding ability.
Defensive Rebound +1, reaching 79 (112).
His Offensive Rebound seemed to have hit a minor bottleneck and did not increase, remaining at 75 (101). The newbie bonus period seemed to be nearing its end.
Zhou Ze felt that he should keep up the rebounding training for another week before putting it on hold for the time being.
The value for money was too low.
He could use that time to train areas where he had greater talent.
In the new week, the first game was against the Dallas Mavericks.
The outside world jokingly called it "the showdown
