Chapter 768 [Re-Election]

This year's regular season awards were announced a little later, and on May 14, some of the most important awards were announced.

Zhou Xuan once again won the regular season MVP, averaging 18 per game. 1 point 2. 7 rebounds and 13. 5 assists 2. 2 steals. LeBron James's stats are prettier, but the Heat have a mediocre record and have been rumored since the mid-term that he will leave the Heat. His reputation is over, and it will be difficult for the Heat to break through in this year's playoffs. In this context, the league has lost interest in praising James.

Giving James a regular season MVP makes no sense except to destroy Zhou Xuan's three-in-a-row, and Zhou Xuan's fans will not be satisfied at that time, and if James leaves in the summer, Heat fans will not be satisfied.

Chinese reporters interviewed Zhou Xuan. "You've won the MVP three times in a row, do you want to say anything to the fans?"

"Records are meant to be broken, and I'm just flat now, I haven't broken them yet. It's too early to tell, but I hope to continue to be the MVP next season and leave my name forever in the NBA history so that people will remember me 100 years from now. Zhou Xuan smiled: "Of course, the priority now is to win the championship." I want to get FMVP even more. ”

Zhou Xuan did not hide his ambitions, daring to think, dare to do and dare to speak. As long as he wins next season, he will surpass Bird and Russell. This requires him to get better stats and the best record in the team. The league's best record for four consecutive years is not something that most people dare to imagine. But many fans feel that Zhou Xuan may be able to do it, his biggest trait is not to brush data, but to lead the team to win!

Zhou Xuan's words also gave fans new expectations for him. Personally, he is also willing to go further, and he will not be idle to win as many honors and championships as he wants.

Coach of the Year is George Karl of the Nuggets. The Nuggets still had an excellent regular season record after sending Anthony away, but they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs due to Gallinari's injury, and what is even funnier is that Karl was immediately cut off. Cutting the best coach is also uncommon in NBA history.

The best defensive player was won by Grizzlies Mark Gasol, and it was the most controversial selection. Gasol Jr. is an inside meat shield, averaging 14 per game. 1 point 7. 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, 1 steal. 7 caps. The 4 assists are a highlight, he shows the strength of the center, but his defensive statistics are really not enough, but because the Grizzlies have a good overall defense, he became the best defensive player. It's really unreliable to have a journalist choose the award.

The Rookie of the Year was won by Damian Lillard, and Bushy Eyebrows came in second due to the team's record and injuries.

The Sixth Man of the Year is J.R. Smith of the Nuggets. He has a similar role to Nick Young, he can steal points when he plays, and he is better in terms of organization.

The Most Improved Player award was won by Paul George of the Pacers. As soon as Granger was injured, he went straight to becoming the leader of the Pacers.

The best general manager is the Nuggets' Marseille Ujri, who kept the Nuggets competitive after losing Anthony.

Best First Team: Zhou Xuan, Kobe, James, Durant, Tim Duncan.

Second team: Parker, Paul, Anthony, Griffin, Gasol Jr.

Team three: Westbrook, Harden, Paul George, David Lee and Howard.

Wade's loss from the All-NBA team was a bit of a surprise to people, and Harden did have higher stats and efficiency than Wade.

The All-Defensive Team was named James, Tony Allen, Paul, Ibaka, Chandler and Joakina Noah. Noah and Chandler were both named to the first team because they both voted for the same score.

The second lineup is Duncan, George, Gasol Jr., Bradley and Conley.

It is worth mentioning that this year's Defensive Player of the Year Gasol Jr. was not named to the All-Defensive First Team, which is also the second consecutive season that the Defensive Player of the Year has not been selected for the First Team. Chandler, last season's Defensive Player of the Year, was the same as Gasol Jr. this year, but he made up for last year's disappointment by making the first team this year.

Zhou Xuan also failed to be selected, in the team he is not responsible for defending the opponent's top scorer, although it is good to limit the opposing players, but most of the time playing soy sauce.

In the second round of the West, there was another upset, and the Bears eliminated the Thunder 4-1.

It's not that the Grizzlies are strong, but Westbrook was injured in the first game between the two sides, he sprained his knee under Conley's defense, which was not very serious, but missed the rest of the game.

Thunder fans are devastated, not to mention that only Westbrook can prevent Durant. Without Wei Shao, the Thunder can't do the Grizzlies. Prince is one of the best defenders at defending Durant. Conley also had the upper hand against Fisher and Reggie Jackson.

Fisher faced Conley's defense, shooting 1-of-6 and 1-of-7 in several games, and his playoff experience was all clouds.

Randolph played well against Ibaka alone, averaging 20+10 per game in the series, and Gasol Jr. could also block and dismantle in a high position, throwing in the middle of the shot, and the Grizzlies became a big dark horse in the West.

The Spurs relied on defense to defeat the Warriors 91-80 and advance to the Western Conference Finals 4-1.

The Warriors have a strong attack this year, but they can't break through the Spurs' defense. To deal with the fast break, the Spurs have a small lineup, Harris and Bamot are very mobile, and against the positional battle, there are Duncan, Dio, and Split.

Especially Split, the inside line can resist Bogut, and after blocking and dismantling, he can follow Curry, Thompson, and Landry. He's strong defensively and he's going to be a free agent in the summer, and the Spurs will have to spend a lot of money if they want to keep him.

The Heat and the Nets played seven games, and in the tiebreaker, the Nets won 94-91 on the road. Paul Pierce made a crucial mid-range shot to overtake the score and finish at seven. James missed a jumper in 7 seconds, the Heat adopted foul tactics, and Deron Williams made both free throws to seal the victory.

In this game, Pierce scored 24 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, and the big hat fanned James's layup in the final quarter, and the two almost PK in real life. James' 33 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists are even more beautiful, but unfortunately he has become a loser again. Pierce behaved more like a leader when it mattered.

With both men playing small forwards, Pierce is James' most direct opponent and closest to James' arch-nemesis, and they always look tough when defending each other.

James was suppressed by the Celtics for several years, and now Pierce is on the Nets, and he is still playing the role of James' nemesis when he is about to retire.

In addition, Joe Johnson also locked up the sluggish Wade, and despite not scoring much of his own, the Hawks showed their worth.

Bosh played against Lopes most of the time, didn't let Da Luo play super stats, and his own offense was also terrible. Many fans began to shout "pseudo-giants" and "trade Bosh" again.

After the game, Heat coach Spoelstra said, "It's like a microcosm of the whole season. Obviously, we were disappointed to lose the series, but I was never disappointed with the Heat. The Nets have a horrible line-up, with stars in every position, Garnett is off the bench and you have to play 48 minutes to beat them. ”

Nets coach Callesimo said: "We've been grinding through the regular season and it's time to move higher. ”

Defeating the Heat also made the interim coach's prestige rise, and there were many calls for turning positive. However, he is only continuing the tactical concept of the little general, and he can't twist the stars under him into a rope at all.

The Knicks have a week off, and the Western Conference Finals have already begun.

The Spurs beat the Grizzlies at home in their first game.

The Grizzlies have an interior advantage when they play the Thunder, but they can't play against the Spurs, and the Spurs are also very strong inside. A strong interior player like Blair can only be used as a marginal substitute, and Blair was dissatisfied with his playing time before trading to the Spurs in the Warriors. At the end of the season, he will be a free agent and will definitely have to find a new club.

Outside Parker, Ray Allen, Ginobili, Gary Neil, and Danny Green are rotated, and each of them is not bad, can break through, and can shoot. The Grizzlies lacked Conley's bench, and it wasn't enough for Bayless to steal points alone.

The Spurs have only one goal this time, and that is a championship. Before the start of the Knicks vs. Nets game, Duncan called Zhou Xuan and waited for him in the finals. The implication is that the Spurs not only want to eliminate the Grizzlies, but also have the confidence to break through as soon as possible.

No one thinks the Knicks can sweep the promotion, and the Nets' lineup is too scary to see the player's fame.

ESPN's panel of experts analyzed the lineups of both sides.

Center Brook Lopes vs Chandler. Lopez is the fourth in scoring efficiency among interior players, has super offensive power, and averages two blocks per game. Chandler is just a defensive blue-collar player, with a slight advantage for the Nets.

Power forward Anderson (Parsons) vs Anthony. The Knicks are clearly at a disadvantage, and it will be even more difficult to defend Anthony if he goes up to Scola. Despite the drop in numbers, Melon is still the Nets' top scorer.

Small forward Pierce vs Leonard. Whether it is experience or skill, it is Pierce who has the advantage, Leonard's advantage is youth and physicality, and the defense is excellent, and this position is also slightly better for the Nets.

Shooting guard Joe Johnson vs. Matthews, the Nets have a clear advantage. In the regular season, Joe Johnson was Mr. Key, the all-around warrior, and Matthews was more responsible for spot shooting and outside defense.

Point guard Zhou Xuan vs Deron Williams, this position Knicks have an advantage. Delon is not weak, even if his shooting percentage decreases and his organization deteriorates, he is still a top 10 point guard in the league.

On the bench, the Nets mainly have Garnett, Kidd, Evans, DeShaun Brooks, and Rasheed Wallace. The Knicks have Scola, Blecher, Bledsoe, Nick Young and others, and they look half-hearted.

The Nets bench is more experienced, while the Knicks bench is more impactful.

All experts agree that the Nets lineup is better than the Knicks, but with Zhou Xuan, the probability of the Knicks advancing accounts for sixty percent. This is the highest rating for a player's individual ability.

Whether local stars want to admit it or not, the NBA league has been ruled by foreign players. It turns out that ball intelligence is more important than physical fitness. The Lakers championship team has Da Gasol as the axis, the core of the Mavericks winning the championship is Nowitzki, and the MVP of the Warriors and Knicks were all obtained by Zhou Xuan. A little earlier, the Spurs, Parker, and Ginobili were also international coalition forces. The increasing skill of local players, especially black players, has become a trend in the NBA in recent years.
