267: MVP Candidates? (4K Ticket)
At the end of the game, all the Portland fans in the stadium were cheering.
Those middle-aged fans were even more moved by tears.
This is no longer a matter of Ye Qinghui, this is simply Ye Hui!
In the 90-91 season, Drexler, one of the greatest stars in Trail Blazers history, led the Trail Blazers to 63 wins.
It's a first for the Trail Blazers, and a first for Trail Blazers fans.
After 16 years, the young boys of the year have become fat uncles, and they have finally waited for another 60-win season!
The wonderful feeling of the first time is back!
Isn't this a master's return?
At the end of the game between the Trail Blazers and the Warriors, the number 60 appeared on the big screen in the Rose Garden.
60 wins, exactly 60 wins.
After this final game, the Trail Blazers' record officially became 60-22.
Again, it was Wayne's first 60-win career.
As soon as the game ended, Wayne was added to man.
As the star of the house, he led the team to 60 wins, so he can't be hugged by his teammates.
Cannon jumped directly onto Wayne's back, and his sister-in-law threw Wayne's head on his chest from the front.
This is probably called being attacked on the back of the abdomen.
Wayne had 58 wins when he was with the Pacers, and although 60 wins seemed lofty, Wayne was only two games away from 60 wins that year.
But sister-in-law and Pao'er are different.
Pao'er didn't even get 30 wins last season, and her sister-in-law's best year was only 49 wins. He played five years with the Grizzlies, winning just 30 of those three years.
So for Cannon and sister-in-law, this year's record, in Wayne's previous words, is called a mosaic of ass - up to the sky.
"Sister-in-law, you let go of me, I'm out of breath!" Wayne struggled frantically, caught between two big men one after the other, like what words!
Look at the way you all look like you're all out of nowhere, is it hard to win 60 wins?
That's just two more wins than in my rookie season.
You still don't have much knowledge.
Watching the three of them rubbing each other frantically on the court, the pioneer legend Bill, who came to the scene today to explain the game. Wharton was happy.
"Wei looks like he's enjoying it, too, and who star won't enjoy it if he leads the team to 60 wins?"
Wayne: Which eye did you see that I was enjoying it? Who's going to get these two out of the way for me!
"yes, maybe one day, his jersey will hang next to you?"
"Of course it's for the best, Portland needs a player like him."
After saying that for a long time, no one went to save Wayne.
Wayne continued to be rubbed.
"Speaking of which, the situation in the west this year is really crazy. Can you imagine? The Trail Blazers have 60 wins, but they can only finish third in the West!
In the past, such a record was not the first but also the second. ”
"yes, nobody has ever seen that, nobody knows what it would be like to play the playoffs with three teams with 60 wins. This year's championship will be a championship with high gold content! ”
Bill. Wharton would have said that this year's Western Conference championship was a more prestigious honor than a championship.
But after thinking about it, it is better to save some face for the eastern giants.
The roads are welded to death, but they are not the eastern warriors.
"And it's not just these three teams with 60 wins that have a chance to compete for the title. The Lakers, who won 58 wins, are also the favorites to win the championship! ”
Hearing this, the fans rubbed their hands excitedly.
As it stands, there are four teams in the West that are capable of competing for the title.
The Mavericks with 67 wins, the Suns with 61 wins, the Trail Blazers with 60 wins and the Lakers with 58 wins.
Well, the old Zen master has gotten rid of the low-level fun of competing for a spot in the regular season.
Wouldn't it be nice to give Yao Ming a round break in the regular season, to control the time for Kobe Bryant, and to play the playoffs in good health?
I really don't understand you teams that won more than 60 games in the regular season.
Uncouth!
Besides, in this year's playoffs, there are no opponents to pick.
But once you enter the second round, everyone has to peel off their skin, and no one wants to run.
If he wins two more games, there will be four teams in the west with more than 60 wins.
Then it is estimated that the league is really going to start the playoffs, and it is not divided into East and West.
After all, the Pistons, which are the first in the east this year, can't even squeeze into the top five in the west......
Bill. Wharton and his commentary partner analyzed for a long time before finding that Wayne had finally been rescued.
If Tucker hadn't gone up and pulled Wayne, God knows how long his sister-in-law and Cannon would have been hugging Wayne.
In the audience, Paul Brown wearing a Trail Blazers baseball cap. Alan clapped vigorously.
What do you think?
Are you convinced?
Also mercenaries not?
This is the ability to make money!
Lao Tzu had a fish belly last season, and this season started with 60 wins.
The lemon essence in San Antonio is sour now.
Popovich: "No, I'm very confident in the playoffs, and we're going to be able to fight back...... Right? ”
Paul. Allen breathed a sigh of relief, although he was not the first in the regular season, his 60-win record was already very good.
So next......
Will the team be able to stand up to the real test?
Paul. Allen, of course, knows that Wayne and Paul are still young, and there is still a lot of room for growth on this team.
But if you can win the championship in the first year, who will say no?
Alan stared at Wayne with anticipation.
It's up to you, Chinese boy.
After returning to the locker room, Wayne was held down by his sister-in-law and Mourning, and Cannon and Judoka lifted up and stabbed Gatorade, which gave Wayne a deep chill.
Wayne was extremely aggrieved, this team is terrible!
Four people are doing this kind of thing according to me, and there is no me in your eyes!
McMillan didn't stop the group, and although it wasn't time to celebrate, it was ......
A hard season is indeed something to celebrate.
At this point, McMillan pulled out his phone. On the Internet, there is already a matchup table for this year's playoffs.
The final result was much as expected.
In the West, the top eight are the Mavericks, Suns, Trail Blazers, Lakers, Spurs, Jazz, Nuggets and Grizzlies.
Mosaic?
Mosaic was played to death by Dog Thunder's god operation last summer.
Big Ben is not working, and Tracey has to be overloaded.
Tracey was overloaded, and her body couldn't carry it, and she suffered two injuries in three days.
As soon as Tracey is injured, Mosaic needs a big book.
But Ben is not working, and Tracey has to be overloaded......
It's an endless loop.
The essence of a mosaic is a repeater.
Therefore, under the shrewd operation of Goulei, Mosaic successfully changed from a playoff team to a lottery team.
Moreover, it is now saddled with the negative equity of large capital.
As soon as Dog Thunder made a move, Houston was like that.
And the Grizzlies brought the team to the playoffs because of Randolph's prodigal return a few years early.
Although the 42-win record is not particularly against the sky, it has made the Grizzlies turn 180 degrees.
The Dallas Mavericks, on the other hand, will have the honor of being the first team to be stabbed with a stick in the playoffs.
The length of the grizzly bear, only the Maverick went to verify it himself.
According to this situation, the Trail Blazers will play the Jazz in the first round......
I don't know how Boozer feels, maybe he can't sleep well at night.
But Pao'er must have been excited.
How many times in a lifetime can you have a chance to beat Deron in the playoffs?
You have to take it well!
Judging from the regular season record between the two sides, the Trail Blazers should have no problem passing the Jazz.
In that second round, they will face the winner of the Suns and Nuggets.
Both the Suns and Nuggets don't play fast-paced offensive basketball defensively, and this series could be the best to watch in the first round.
Although the Nuggets have Guagua, AI, the Suns' offense is run-in and experienced.
The Suns will most likely win.
Then in the second round, the opponent of the Trail Blazers is likely to be the second Sun......
The Trail Blazers and Suns have a 1-3 record in the regular season, which is a bit worrying.
Although the two sides met for the last meeting of the regular season, McMillan made some targeted arrangements and finally beat the Suns.
But it was just a game after all, and the sample was too small.
In the playoff matchup of four out of seven games, it's really hard to say which is better or worse.
Then it's time for the Western Conference Finals......
It's either the Mavericks or the Lakers, there's no doubt about that.
The Lakers play the Spurs and will definitely be able to pass.
Although Deng Du can compete with Yao Ming, without Bowen, the Spurs will take the lead against Kobe.
As for the Mavericks beating the Grizzlies...... Even if the Trail Blazers abandoned Zach is a bit fierce this year, the Grizzlies' lineup is still far from the Mavericks.
If this can be a miracle, a real miracle has happened here.
Therefore, the opponent in the Western Conference Finals is either the Lakers or the Mavericks.
McMillan's expression was suddenly heavy, and the 60 wins suddenly didn't smell so good.
After Wayne took a shower, he went to the post-game press conference.
When she arrived at the door of the press conference, Aunt Jenny also gave Wayne a big hug.
"Congratulations, the first 60 wins of your career! You're awesome! ”
"Thanks, Jenny, your answer last time with a 50% chance of winning the Lakers was also great."
"Hehe, let's get in. The playoffs are about to begin, and today's press conference is likely to be very lively. ”
As always, Wayne took the note from Jenny's hand and pushed the door open and walked into the press conference.
As soon as I entered, there was applause and a flash of applause.
"Congratulations on your 60-win record, Wei."
"This is dedicated to the City of Tears." Wayne, of course, is also very good at it, and responds with a smile.
After that, it's time for the regular question-and-answer session.
As Jenny said, most of the questions are related to the playoffs, and Wayne has answered a lot in the past few days, so he is comfortable with reporters.
Just when Wayne thought he could easily deal with the reporters today, an unexpected question appeared.
"Wayne, just released on the latest edition of the MVP rankings. You've been ranked second, just behind Dirk. Nowitzki.
What do you think is your advantage over Dirk? ”
Hearing this, Wayne was a little stunned.
This year's MVP rankings, Wayne has not paid attention to it.
Most of the time, he's hovering in the third to fifth range, so Wayne doesn't pay much attention either.
Although the MVP leaderboard is only a ranking predicted by the media, it does not represent the final result.
But in general, it is the top two people who have a better chance of winning.
Wayne really didn't know that he had climbed to second place in the latest MVP list just announced!
This year, the competition for MVP is honestly not particularly fierce.
If MVP is divided into big years and small years like the draft, then this year is undoubtedly an MVP year.
Dirk, who ranked first, averaged 24.6 points, 8.9 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.8 blocks per game.
Wayne is averaging 25.2 points, 8.6 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 2.0 blocks per game this season. Overall, Wayne's stats are even more comprehensive than Dirk's.
Compared with last season, Wayne has increased to a certain extent in all statistics, except for slightly fewer assists.
It's normal to have fewer assists, after all, the Trail Blazers can handle all three of them now.
Of course, MVP is not just about personal data, but also about team record and season dominance.
Otherwise, it's not for nothing that the data is comparable or even better than Wayne and Dirk.
Kobe Bryant's 28.6 points, 5.7 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.4 steals this season are also good, but his record is only 58 wins, which is a little bit worse.
Mousse averaged 27.3 points, 6.7 rebounds and 6.0 assists per game, but just 50 wins, which is certainly not qualified.
So the stars of the three 60-win teams, Dirk, Wayne and Nash, are the three players who are most likely to win the MVP.
It is worth mentioning that all three are international players.
Well, there will definitely be American fans who will be unhappy about this.
Nash is already a two-time MVP, so it's unlikely that he will win three consecutive years.
The three-time MVP is at the level of Russell, Chamberlain and Bird in history.
Wang: That's right, there's me again. Hey, distressed!.
And Nash still hasn't had a ring, so it's obviously not appropriate to give him a three-time MVP.
Wayne reckons that may have been the reason for his sudden overtaking of Nash in second place.
So now, the MVP is basically a race between Wayne and Dirk.
Dirk's biggest advantage over Wayne is that he has won seven more games.
Don't underestimate these seven games, this is the best regular season record in the history of the Mavericks. Moreover, it is also one of the best regular season records of the 21st century.
The Lakers in 2000 also won 67 wins, and Shaq naturally became the MVP that year.
It is said that Shaq almost became the unanimous MVP that year, and if it does, Shaq will make history.
But there is one named Fred. Sickman's reporter, however, voted for the AI with a lot of personality.
That's it, just this vote, Shaq and the unanimous MVP passed by.
Shaq was very angry when he talked about it until he retired.
Although he is only one vote away, Shaq is also the undoubted MVP.
It can be seen that the record of 67 wins is still a plus.
But then again, Dirk's dominance this season can't be compared to Shaq's.
At that time, Shaq was basically invincible in the alliance, and Dirk was almost interesting in this regard.
If you put him against Duncan, KG, Wayne, etc., he doesn't necessarily guarantee that he will be able to eat each other.
Thinking like this, Wayne suddenly got a little excited.
To put it this way...... I really have a chance to win the MVP this season!
The Trail Blazers went from a belly team to a 60-win team, which is also a pretty good record.
"Wei? What do you think are your strengths? The reporter saw that Wayne was stunned for a long time, so he asked again.
"My advantage? Well, maybe we've won more of our Mavericks this season.
Actually, I don't want to talk about MVP right now, I just want to play well in the playoffs. ”
Wayne himself laughed, this is a lie, who doesn't care about MVP!
If you say you don't care, you can't get it!
But it's useless to care, there is no hard indicator for this thing, and whether you can take it all depends on the preferences of those voting reporters.
So, if you want to, you have to wait.
After leaving the press conference scene, looking at Jenny, Wayne couldn't help but giggle.
"What's wrong?"
"Jenny, have you ever written an MVP speech?"
"Huh?"
"It's nothing, it's just a casual ask, hehe."
Watching Wayne giggle away, Jenny shook her head.
It's been three years, and I'm still like a child.
MVP may sound far away, but Wayne doesn't feel like he's an extravagant hope.
There is no extravagance, what is the difference between that and salted fish.
This rookie contract is not yet executed, the FMVP is here, and the All-Star starters are here. If there is another regular season MVP, do you think the league will introduce something like the Rose clause in advance?
Wayne didn't think much about it, the first step is to help Pao'er defeat Delon first!
Later, this sentence will have to be changed.
Paul, eat, sleep, and fight Delon!
