The list of the NBA's All-Defensive Team for the 13-14 season is as follows.

Best Defensive First Player: Defenders Jeremy Lin, Chris. Paul, forward Leonard, Sergi. Ibaka, center Dunn.

Defensive Second Team of the Year: Defender Mike. Conley, Clay. Thompson, forward Drummond. Green, Tim. Duncan, center Rudy. Goebel.

If Thompson and Leonard's selection to the All-Defensive Team is expected, and Green's selection to the All-Defensive Team is reasonable, then Rudy. Gobert's selection to the All-Defensive Second Team surprised many.

Although there are no strong enough centers in the league today, there are many defensive blue-collar centers with good strength.

Aside from Dunn, who used Mutombo's growth template card for the Thunder, there are still centers in the league such as Howard, Noah, Jordan Jr., and Whiteside who are not bad at defending and protecting the frame.

Comparing statistics, Howard averaged 18 points, 12 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game this season.

Joaquin. Noah averaged 12.6 points, 11.3 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.5 blocks per game.

As for the other two veterans of the Wizards, Jordan Jr. averaged 14 points, 13.6 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game, and Whiteside averaged 17 points, 14.3 rebounds and 3.7 blocks per game.

Several people, without exception, can all score an average of two double-doubles per game.

Gobert, who won the All-Defensive Second Team honor over them, played only 28 minutes in the regular season this season, averaging 8.3 points, 9.2 rebounds and 2.3 blocks.

This data is already very good for a first-year rookie, but it is still worse than Howard and others.

But the spot for the best defensive second-team center was given to Gobert, because Gobert's defensive role is not reflected in the statistics alone.

The voting for the All-NBA and All-Defensive Team lists are all reporters from authoritative media in the United States, who have been engaged in sports and basketball reporting for many years, and are naturally not people who don't understand the game, and they can easily find Gobert's difference through a simple comparison.

Last season's Wizards, although the defense is also very strong, but once the opponent breaks through the iron wall of defense on the outside and rushes into the interior, then the efficiency of scoring will increase in a straight line, although Whiteside averaged nearly 3 blocks per game last season, but the interior defense is not particularly good.

In contrast, the new Gobert has done a very good job this season, although he does not have the gorgeous block statistics of Whiteside, and he is often squeezed by other interior lines due to lack of strength, but the real data reflects that Gobert's defensive success rate under the basket is second in the league, second only to Dunn of the Thunder, even if it is Howard, Jordan Jr., Jorkin. Noah and other defensive giants are out of reach.

Defense, not just using the block to fan the opponent's shot, as long as the opponent can not shoot, it is a successful defense.

Gobert clearly did this very well and was seen by many in the eye, so he became the center of the All-Defensive Second Team, and the accolade is a testament to his contribution to the Wizards' record-breaking 73 wins.

Although he made an outstanding contribution to the team's defense, Gobert's stats made it impossible to be named Rookie of the Year, but it was more than enough to be selected to the Rookie of the Year team.

The five players on the All-Rookie Team are Victor. Oladipo, Trey. Burke, Tim. Hardaway II, Michael. Carter. Williams & Rudy. Goebel.

Facts have once again proved that the standard of rookies in 13 is really low, and none of the top five picks before the draft was selected for the best rookie team, and Bennett successfully replaced Kwame. Brown won the title of the most watery pick in NBA history, averaging 12.8 minutes per game in the regular season, only 4.2 points and 3 rebounds, which is completely the standard of a water cooler manager, more soy sauce than soy sauce.

The Rookie of the Year award was Michael Carter Williams, who averaged 16.7 points, 6.2 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game.

That's basically the big guy among the shorts, and with Gobert not yet fully developed into the best defensive player and Oladipo yet to become a top scorer, the league can only select a rookie whose stats look pretty.

……

Amid the discussion of the season's lineups, the second round of matches is coming to an end.

Sure enough, the Cavaliers defeated the Nets with a 4-2 record to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals, and James will also face Wang Xiao's Wizards on the stage of the Eastern Conference Finals for the fourth consecutive year.

The situation in the West has taken a surprising turn, the Trail Blazers, who had already held the match point 3:1, accidentally injured Durant in the fifth game after returning to the home court, not to mention losing the game, after the game, Durant's injury will take at least about three months to recover, which means that he will miss all the playoff games for the rest of the season.

Without Durant, the Trail Blazers lost their most stable scoring point, and Aldridge alone was unable to support himself, and was actually pulled three games in a row and lost the game 3:4.

Wang Xiao is still very impressed with this Grizzlies team.

Point guard Mike. Conley, shooting guard Tony. Allen, small forward Courtney. Lee, power forward Zach. Randolph, center Mark. Gasol.

If the Trail Blazers have Durant to press, the Grizzlies are naturally not an opponent, but Durant is not there, and Aldridge alone is naturally not an opponent.

The Trail Blazers were knocked out in the second round, while the Spurs-Clippers series also lasted seven games.

Relying on the stable performance of GDP and the new signing of Chris. Bosh, the Spurs won a tough game four against the Clippers, and Paul's dream of a Western Conference was shattered again.

In this way, the Eastern and Western finals are the Wizards vs. Cavaliers, and the Spurs vs. Grizzlies, which is also the first time in two years that the Eastern and Western finals have changed.

In the past two years, the East and West have been contested between the Wizards and the Heat, the Trail Blazers and the Spurs, and the audience has been a little tired of watching, and this year is finally a little different.

Whether the Wizards without George can continue to beat their teammates and whether the Spurs are the best time to win the championship without the Trail Blazers are all suspense that the audience is looking forward to seeing the result.

……

Before the start of the Eastern Conference Finals, Wang Xiao seemed to have good news.

He received a phone call, it was from Da Yao.

"Wang Xiao, I have good news for you, you may be about to receive an official invitation from the Basketball Association!"

On the phone, Da Yao's tone was tinged with a hint of excitement.

Wang Xiao was a little stunned when he heard it.

"Basketball Association, invitation? What do you mean? ”
