After the finals, the next step is the award ceremony, which is the individual award and the group award.

As we all know, the difference between the treatment of the champion and the runner-up is not small, and the history of the national competition is often only recorded by the XX team in XX years, except for the championship, and other such as the runner-up or the top four are basically not mentioned.

Not only that, but this is especially true in the collective awards, where the champion receives a trophy and a group photo to commemorate it, while the runner-up and the rest of the top four are only encouraged by a mere medal and a certificate of honor.

For the core players of the four teams, the next individual awards are the focus, which are MVP (Best Player), Best Newcomer, Best Defensive Player, and Best First, Second and Third Team.

Often, the more important the awards, the later they are announced, and the best newcomers are the first to be announced, among which the candidates are Eiji Sawakita, Akira Sendo and Ming Gaoguang.

The trio are not only first-year players, but also starters for the semi-final teams. As for the champion Hakata Business University, there are naturally excellent first-year players, but due to the style of the Hakata team, the players of Hakata Athletic are all second- and third-year players, and even if there are newcomers, they also appear on the cold bench, which is also the sadness of team basketball.

Among the three, Zebei Eiji's personal data is the most prominent, while Xiandao won the runner-up with the team, and Ming Gaoguang is basically to accompany the prince to study.

In the end, after the decision of the members of the organizing committee of the national competition, the title of the best newcomer was awarded to Eiji Zebei. The reason why this is so is mainly because of the mistakes made by Xiandao and Zebei when they were heads-up, and of course, there are also reasons why Xiandao did not participate in the finals.

This was followed by the best defensive player, and the shortlist was still three, namely Ikegami, Nobisuke and Masashi Kawada, while Hainan was not contested.

Among them, Ikegami is the defensive core of Lingnan's outer line and is a good hand in assisting defense, Nobisuke is the inner barrier attached to Hakata Shodai, and Masashi Kawada has similar characteristics to Ikegami.

Of course, with the exception of a very small number of organizing committee members, most organizing committee members only look at the data to make decisions.

The trio's defensive stats in the semifinals are as follows: Ikegami averaged 6.4 steals and 26 blocks per game due to double-doubles in steals against Sanno, Nobisuke had 1.2 steals and 3.2 blocks, and Masashi Kawada had 2.6 steals and 1.8 blocks at the end.

The defensive data can clearly see the gap, and as a result, most of the members of the organizing committee who have not watched the game have given their votes to Ikegami, so the best defensive player is produced.

Since he won this award last year, it can be said that Ikegami successfully completed the best defensive player award, which is quite rare for a player.

This was followed by the first, second and third teams, with a total of 15 players. Due to the large number of people, it is jokingly called the public award or consolation prize by many players, but the gold content of the best team is the heaviest except for the MVP.

The best team is Nobisuke, Masashi Kawada, Ikegami, Eiji Sawakita and Makishiichi, among which only the top four Sanno has two alone, and I have to say that the quality of the Sanno players. Of course, there may also be reasons for the mountain king's heritage.

In addition to Ikegami, Lingnan also entered the second formation, and Sendo and Naito entered the third formation, and a total of four players entered the best.

Among the four teams, the champion Bodo entered five, the runner-up Lingnan four, and the top four Mountain Kings and Hainan each had three people, and I don't know if it was a coincidence or had a fixed number.

The vast majority of the spectators in the stands are still not gone, and only a little bit of discussion is given at the time of each award. It's just that when the MVP, the highest award for players, was awarded, the atmosphere in the stadium instantly became several times more lively, and there was a lot of discussion, each speculating about the list of candidates and the final winner.

Soon, the organizing committee announced the names of the MVP candidates, namely Nobisuke affiliated with Hakata Business University and Ryoji Ikegami from Lingnan University. Due to the importance of the MVP, candidates are often only selected from the top runners-up.

Both have a certain degree of bonus points, Nobisuke is in the team's record, while Ikegami reflects a higher level of data.

Normally, unless there is a big data gap between the candidates, the MVP will basically be selected from the championship team, but this year this is the case.

In terms of the average data of the two, Ikegami can average 38.8 points, 18.2 assists, 11.4 rebounds, 6.4 steals and 2.6 blocks per game, while Nobisuke has 24.6 points, 5.8 assists, 13 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 3.2 blocks.

Even if it is a pseudo fan, you can easily see the advantages and disadvantages of the data of the two sides, and the data of Nobisuke is naturally good, but compared with Chi Yiyi, it is undoubtedly dwarfed.

Due to the selection of candidates, the audience at the scene supported their respective players.

Although the Hakata Business University won the championship, due to the team basketball game, Nobisuke rarely applauded the audience, so there were not many supporters. And Chishang is due to the superb and comprehensive style of play, coupled with four doubles and 65 points of the 'bonus', which is higher and which is lower at a glance, after all, the audience's vision is still 'snow bright', so almost all of the field is in solidarity with the voice of Chishang, which also adds a lot of points to the minds of the members of the Chishang Organizing Committee, after all, as long as it is a person, there will always be more or less public tendency.

"I would like to announce that the MVP winner is...... Ryoji Ikegami of Lingnan University!"

After the members of the organizing committee voted on it, it didn't take long for the chairman of the organizing committee to announce the final winner of the MVP.

The moment the announcement was made, some people were happy and some people were disappointed, and the expression on Nobisuke's face suddenly stiffened, while Ikegami entered the podium surrounded by Lingnan players and received his reward.

"To be able to win the MVP, first of all, I have to thank my coach, thank him for his respectful teaching, secondly, thank my teammates, without them Lingnan would not have reached such heights, thank you again to the organizing committee, I would not stand here without your recognition, thank my parents, thank you to all the people who support me, thank you!" (Thank you CCTV, thank you MTV, thank you OOXX for moving this award, thank you to my agency, thank you to my parents, thank you to my fans, thank you to all the people who support me, thank you everyone~~ embarrassing!)

On the podium, Ikegami made the above speech, which is also the traditional rule of the Great Celestial Empire's award-winning speeches, including all those who can be thanked, as a way to express his gratitude, as for what his heart is, who knows.

"MVP!MVP!MVP!" The audience in the stadium didn't care about this, and shouted MVP loudly one by one, and their voices were impassioned.

Ikegami's winning of the MVP as the runner-up also broke the long-standing convention of a national competition, and for the first time, there was a precedent for the MVP to be won by a non-champion member.
