(Relationship book friend Xiaotian counts as the head of this book, congratulations o(n_n)o~~)

At eight o'clock in the evening on May 1o, 1994, the Jazz's home arena, the Delta Center, was already full, although as long as the Delta Center was open for the Jazz this season, the arena was always full.

But today's situation is a bit special, because there are no games at the Jazz's home court this year, but these Jazz fans are still so crazy because today they will witness another historic event for the team, and tonight the Delta Center Arena will hold a grand celebration ceremony for the team's first player in team history to win the regular season MVP, as this year's regular season MVP, Karl Malone will also give his acceptance speech today.

And this is definitely a very rare event for Utah Jazz fans, and at this time, standing on the makeshift podium set up in the center of the court, Karl Malone is excitedly expressing his acceptance speech, while the other Jazz players, coaches and administrators are all sitting on the court under the high platform watching Malone.

Of course, as a member of the Jazz team, Lin Han naturally sat in the audience at this time and looked at Ma Long with tears in his eyes on the stage with envy, although Lin Han knew that it was difficult for him to get the regular season MVP this season, but after all, he was not completely without a chance, after this year's regular season voting, his score was still ranked fourth, second only to Ma Long, Olajuwon and Stockton, but it is too difficult for a team not to get the NBA, which can be seen from Pippen, Even if this guy has been so good this season, taking the Bulls to third place in the East, he is no worse than Olajuwon's Rockets in terms of record, and Pippen is also selected to the first team and first defensive team. The Bulls' influence is also greater than that of the Rockets, but when it comes to voting, Olajuwon can threaten Malone. almost succeeded in counterattacking, and Pippen couldn't even compare to Lin Han.

With a Bulls without Jordan, they tied the Bulls with Jordan last season in terms of regular season record. With such a record, Pippen only won 6 first votes, only one-fifth of Olajuwon's, which definitely has a lot to do with the team's record and the player's table, but because now in the minds of most people, Pippen, who has risen in ambition after Jordan left this season and does not want to be the second master of Pi, is still a deep-rooted second master in the hearts of most people, even if Jordan is gone, he is still the second master of the skin. The second master of a team can't get the MVP.

Although Lin Han's status in the Jazz team is higher than Pippen's status in the Bulls, and he is not a simple second-in-command, but in the minds of many people, Lin Han may definitely not be the big boss of the Jazz team, even Jazz fans don't think so, and even when the season is about to end, Lin Han and Ma Long's table is actually not much different or almost the same, and Stockton is slightly inferior to Lin Han and Ma Long, but in the final vote, although Lin Han got a lot of votes, But more people still chose Malone or even Stockton. And Lin Han is only ranked third, although it is compared to Pippen, who has been stereotyped and can't wash off the reputation of the 'second master'. Lin Han was also much luckier.

However, although he was luckier than Pippen but did not win the rookie regular season MVP like Chamberlain and Unselde, Lin Han still felt a little regretful, he had not lost to these two seniors on the table, but Lin Han was still not as lucky as these two people, after all, these two people quickly became the bosses of their respective teams when they arrived in the NBA, and Lin Han still had two big guys on his head.

"Lin, isn't it a pity that it's not you standing on the stage today?"

Just when Lin Han looked at Ma Long's eyes full of envy and jealousy. At this time, although Stockton, who was sitting on Lin Han's side, was still looking at Ma Long intently, the corners of his mouth moved slightly. And Lin Han also came back to his senses after hearing Stockton's words.

"Well, it's a bit of a pity."

After thinking about it a little. Lin Han sighed and said, but to Lin Han's surprise, Stockton didn't respond after he answered, and after a while, when Lin Han looked back, although Stockton still had a smile on his face at this time, his eyes were full of loneliness.

"I also feel sorry, but I know that I will never be able to stand on that platform in my life" After feeling Lin Han's gaze, Stockton said in a somewhat ethereal voice, which made Lin Han unsure of what the black-bellied man with a smile on his face was like at this time, but the next sentence of the Jazz's leading point guard made Lin Han extremely surprised and surprised.

"Although I don't have any chances anymore, but, Lin, sooner or later you will be able to stand on that platform like Carl."

After the Jazz team's leading point guard finished speaking, Lin Han didn't quite understand that this black-bellied man could say things so surely, and when Lin Han turned his head to look at Ma Long on the stage again with a complicated face, Ma Long's speech was almost over at this time.

"I still imagine a guy who came out of a town with a population of less than 3oo, a kid whose father committed suicide at a very young age, a loser who has come to the end of basketball countless times and one day becomes the best player in the NBA, thank you, my cutest '' teammates."

When Ma Long finished the last sentence, when he saw everyone around him standing up, and the fans in the stands on the sidelines also stood up and applauded, Lin Han also stood up, although Lin Han was still applauding at this time, but at this time his eyes were not actually on Ma Long's body, but on the regular season MVP at Ma Long's hand, and at this time, Lin Han, whose eyes had not left the trophy on the stage, did not notice that there were reporters taking pictures around him at this time. And I didn't notice that a reporter actually took a picture of Lin Han's gaze looking at the MVP trophy, and the photojournalist who took this photo didn't think about how much impact this photo would have after it was waited out.

Seeing the successful Ma Long at Ma Long's MVP speech, Lin Han was really full of envy and jealousy, but fortunately, he still gained a lot this season, at least after the league's wave of awards passed, Lin Han still had many milestone rewards in his hand, which surprised Lin Han himself.

The MVP of the All-Star Race rewards a Silver milestone

The best team is rewarded with a Silver milestone

The top scorer in the regular season will be rewarded with a silver milestone

The NBA's Rookie of the Year awards a Silver milestone

The Best Defensive First Burst is rewarded with a Bronze milestone

The Best Rookie Burst is rewarded with a bronze milestone

2, 3, and 4 Month Rookie of the Month awards three bronze milestones

Lin Han now has 4 Silver Milestones and 5 Bronze Milestones in his hands!

And after the All-Star Game ended, Lin Han has been thinking about playing a big game. So I've always hoped to get the regular season MVP, so that I can come directly to the big one, after all, the regular season MVP is a golden milestone reward.

But. Although you won't be able to get the Golden Milestone Reward Regular Season MVP, the five Silver Rewards can be combined into a Gold Reward. And now Lin Han already has four silver-level rewards, although he is one silver-level short, isn't there still 5 bronze-level rewards. Five bronze rewards can be combined into one silver.

So now Lin Han's body is also synthesized with a gold-level milestone reward!

The gold-level milestone reward allows Lin Han to choose to do two things, one is to use this golden milestone to exchange for a silver-level special lottery opportunity, which may draw a lot of good special items, and the other way is to find a gold-level legendary player, and then draw a skill on this player.

Bronze players at the bronze level have a 7o chance to draw a silver skill, and 2o% to draw a skill above silver. Silver level has a 7o% chance of drawing gold and 2o% gold or more, while gold level milestone rewards are 1o% of gold skills and 9o% of gold and above.

At that time, Lin Han was almost stunned when he used his own synthetic gold-level milestone to find a group of gold-level legendary players, because as long as Lin Han was willing, he could draw a lot of good things, such as Stockton among the gold-level legendary players, with a 9o% chance of drawing purple gold skills, as long as Lin Han chose Stockton, then Stockton's strongest passing skills or vision skills Lin Han could almost draw one. If you're really lucky enough to draw Stockton's vision skills, that's amazing.

Except, of course, Stockton. For example, Garnett, who Lin Han is very familiar with, is also a gold-level legendary player, and Lin Han already has a purple-gold skill of Garnett, so if this reward is used on Garnett, as long as Garnett has other purple-gold skills, Lin Han can also draw it, and if there is a skill that matches the rebounding skills throughout the game, then it will also be very good.

So at this time, Lin Han was a little hesitant, and for a while he didn't know whether to use this 'big' reward he synthesized to draw a vision skill or get a special item such as a talent title.

However, now Lin Han is not in a hurry. After all, neither vision skills nor talent titles are the most important things now.

Now for the Jazz and Lynham, the most important thing is naturally the second round of the playoffs with the Warriors. The second round of the playoffs between the Jazz and Warriors begins on May 11, which is tomorrow.

It's just for the current NBA opinion circles. Now the Jazz's second-round play against the Warriors is not the most eye-catching thing, and even the fact that Malone delivered his MVP winning speech at the Delta Center is not the most watched thing.

In the past two days, what has attracted the most attention from the American media or NBA public opinion and fans is the various other counterattacks and almost stunned following in the first round of the Eastern and Western playoffs!

Although the first round of the playoffs in the East and West this year has fierce matchups such as the Rockets and Suns, Spurs and Warriors, most of the matchups are relatively strong and weak, so when the first round of the playoffs has not yet begun, almost every NBA media and expert did not think that there would be so many surprises in the first round of the playoffs.

If it was a big surprise that the Jazz were forced to lose their rhythm by the Trail Blazers, and the Spurs' 2-3 loss to the Warriors was a big accident, then these two accidents are really nothing compared to the accidents of other games.

As far as the West is concerned, the second in the West will face the Nuggets who are seventh in the West, who would have thought that there would be an accident in this matchup?

Especially when Yin won the first two home games, and won the Nuggets by 34 points in both games. Who would have thought that Guo Yin would lose three games in a row in the end and be successfully black-seven by the Nuggets? Who would have thought that the Nuggets' first two games, the ordinary defensive interior Mutombo, suddenly seemed to wake up, or suddenly comprehend, in the last three games. Sent out 6, 8 and 8 in the final three games for a total of 22 blocks. Mutombo, who averaged seven blocks per game, almost collapsed.

In the end, when the Nuggets came back from an O-2 deficit and counterattacked, the entire NBA league went crazy, and even the NBA awards season was overshadowed by the news.

In addition to the Nuggets' counterattack at O-2, another matchup in the West, the Suns and the Rockets, the Suns also led 2-O in a good situation, and were counterattacked by the Rockets.

You know, when the Suns led the Rockets 2-o. At that time, Barkley, who was extremely excited and thought that the team's strategy of brushing failure in the regular season was successful, but when he was leading 2-O in a post-game interview, he directly told reporters that they were already thinking about the next opponent, you know, when Barkley said such a thing, no one raised any doubts, and from now on, Barkley, who has always liked to challenge his character, lost to Miracle again, or simply lost to Olajuwon, who suddenly exploded. In the last three games, Olajuwon scored 26 points, 15 rebounds, 6 assists and 6 blocks. 28 points, 12 rebounds, 8 assists and 5 blocks, 37 points, 17 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks.

At the end of the first round of the series, many fans were laughing at the rookie who was averaging close to 5x5 per game when he was facing the Trail Blazers. In fact, as the king of 5x5 in the league, Olajuwon did not play 5x5 in any game, but almost every game was close to 5x5, and even the average jù per game was even more terrifying than Lin Han.

However, the counterattack of Heyin and the Nuggets shocked the whole United States is incomparable, and the counterattack of the Suns and the Rockets is quite acceptable, after all, the Rockets are third in the West, and this team is really very powerful when it doesn't play dead.

Of course, this year's playoffs in the West are playing counterattacks, while the East is not as many counterattacks as the West, but it is a heartbeat here. Except for the Knicks, who easily defeated the Heat, who are eighth in the East, as easily as the Jazz, the other three matchups are all heartbeats.

For example, the Hawks, who are second in the East, after meeting the Nets. He lost the first game, if not the fifth Nets guard Jeff Malone's two-point shot. The second-place team in the East will be eliminated in the same round as the Bulls.

In the first round of this year's playoffs, which matchup is the most heart-beating? Without a doubt, it's definitely a matchup between the Pacers and the Bulls, or a matchup between Pippen and Reggie Miller.

It can be said that since Reggie Miller in the first game of the playoffs between the two teams and when the Bulls fans chanted Jordan's name in the whole court, this guy staged a very classic booing action, Pippen and Reggie Miller both fought, or the Pacers and the Bulls did it.

What kind of player is Reggie Miller? The last time this guy was selected as an All-Star was 4 years ago, this guy's regular season count is only an average of 2o points per game, in the current era of talent, this guy can't even enter the best team three times, but one of the characteristics of this guy is that Jordan has a headache, or that Jordan, who has been on the throne in the last three years, has one of the most feared players has one of the most headaches, the most feared one is Olajuwon, and the most headache is Reggie Miller, this guy can average 2o points per game in the regular season, But in the playoffs, he can average more than 3o points per game, and the three-point shooting rate in the regular season can be more than 4o%, but in the finals, the three-point shooting rate can reach 5o% or even 6o%, and when facing generally not very strong opponents, this guy will even be a bit of a dead dog, but when facing opponents like the New York Gangsters and Jordan, this guy is a madman.

So, when Pippen personally confronted Reggie Miller and wanted to ban the Pacers boss, what made Pippen very embarrassed or very annoyed in the end was that Reggie Miller suddenly slipped out of his side under his nose in Game 5 to complete a series-ending stunner.

Although after the game, Pippen complained that Reggie Miller pushed him. It was a foul, but the result of the game was decided, and no matter how much Pippen complained, there was no way to wash away the fact that he led the team to be blackballed. Even when Reggie Miller finished the final kill in front of Pippen, the Bulls fans chanted for Jordan's return. Pippen's face was extremely ugly, he knew that if Jordan returned at this time, then he would really miss the most important opportunity in his life, and the title of Pi Erye would accompany him for the rest of his life.

Of course, the Bulls and the Pacers played a heartbeat, and almost every game was on the verge of being killed and killed, and it ended very dramatically with Reggie Miller beating the Bulls. It's a very classic series.

And the other matchup between the Magic and the fifth Cavaliers in the East is a joke, or O'Neal.

While the three youngsters of Lynham, Webb and Hardaway showed great performances in their first career playoff trip, O'Neal, who was newly promoted to the Big Four center, was simply amused.

Or O'Neal is very funny when he usually lives, but this guy who is very funny off the court is not funny at all on the court, but domineering, but when he encounters a group of ball ruffians on the inside line of the Cavaliers, this Magic master player is not only a little funny off the court, but also very funny on the court.

The Cavaliers are fifth in the East, and their strength can't compare to the Magic, which is inevitable. But if O'Neal, who averaged 29+13+3 per game in the regular season, averaged 2o points and 13 rebounds per game in the playoffs, shooting just 5o% per game, and averaged 5 fouls per game, then it would be really difficult for the Magic team to win every game. Under the play of the Cavaliers Larry Nance, a veteran ruffian All-Star who is about to retire, the Magic's home inside was sent off 2 times in five games, and the Magic lost all of these two games, although the other three games were not sent off, but they were also on the verge of being sent off, and the guy who only had technical fouls ate 3 times in this series.

Although the Magic eliminated the Cavaliers 3-2 in the end, it was clear that he was quite unhappy for O'Neal. Although it is up to him whether the Magic can win or not, it is not all about how good he does not want to be. It's all about whether he will be sent off.

Of course, O'Neal, the young fourth-best center, had a terrible start on his first trip to the playoffs. In the current world where interior players are still very powerful, even if O'Neal really has unlimited potential and outstanding ability, but in the face of a group of old interior ruffians who have received the baptism of the three centers for countless years and even the baptism of the peak Abdul-Jabbar and Moses Malone, this leading player of the Magic still needs to learn a lot.

No, no matter what, after the first round is over, the second round of the NBA playoffs is all out, the Knicks, who are the first in the East, will face the Magic team in the fourth place in the East, O'Neal will face the other big guy in the three centers after crossing the Cavaliers and a group of old ruffians, and the Hawks in the second place in the East will face the Pacers who are sixth in the East, although the Pacers are not ranked high, but they beat the Bulls.

On the Western side, in addition to the Jazz and the Warriors, another matchup is naturally the dark horse team Nuggets and the championship favorite Rockets.

On May 11, 1994, the day after Malone's MVP speech yesterday, the Jazz will face the Warriors today.

The Jazz, who have been resting for a week, have a physical advantage over the Warriors, who just finished a tie-break with the Spurs on May 9, but they also have a disadvantage in game form, and overall, the matchup with the Warriors is definitely more difficult than the Trail Blazers.

Of course, the Jazz know this, and everyone else knows this very well, so on the day of the Jazz and Warriors game, when the Warriors came to Salt Lake City, when they were interviewed before the game, there were many more reporters coming to Salt Lake City this time than in the previous round.

After all, in the first round, the Jazz and the Trail Blazers didn't seem to have much suspense in the eyes of many people, so many of them were focusing on the Rockets and the Suns or the Warriors and Spurs, but now, when there are only four matchups left in the NBA playoffs, especially these two matchups in the West, when Olajuwon and Drexler awakened, after winning three games in a row against the Suns. Can the Nuggets compete with the Rockets? Looks like it can be killed in seconds.

In this case, almost most of the media is now flocking to Salt Lake City, and there is no way. Although the Jazz had a bad regular season, many people were expecting the team to sweep all the way to the championship, just as they showed their advantage in the regular season. At this time, this team actually let people see their vulnerabilities so quickly, which has to make people look down on the Jazz team a lot, and even many people were optimistic about the Warriors before this series.

"The Jazz are a very good team, but I've always said that this team is a team that is overrated, they don't have any ability to compete for a championship, their weaknesses are very obvious, the players and the coaches have it. There are at least two teams in the NBA that are better than them, and the Warriors are the other teams that are not worse than the Jazz, and if you look at the state of the game, I don't think the Jazz can win in the second round, and the Warriors will beat the Jazz with their offense."

As one of the largest Lynches in the United States, former New York Knicks legend Superstar Willis Reed expressed his disdain for the Jazz almost without hesitation in an exclusive interview with the New York Times, and in fact, in the first round of the Jazz and the Trail Blazers, as a guest in the ABC studio, the Knicks legend often fought in the studio with the Jazz legend Dantley, most of the time. When others heard Willis Reed's evaluation of the Jazz, they would only smile and be noncommittal, because everyone knew how this guy might like the Jazz. Unless the Jazz sweeps Lin Han out of the house.

Only this time, the New York celebrity's views seem to be shared by many people, and not many people are laughing at his 'communiqué personal vendetta'.

Of course, in addition to the predictions of many media and experts, the Jazz team is not very superior, and compared with the Rockets who all swept the Nuggets in their pre-game predictions, the Jazz's market is really not good.

It's not a big deal to have a lot of media look down on it, after all, the Jazz have been through too much this season, but after coming to Salt Lake City. Even a lot of Warriors players don't look down on this Jazz team.

For example, Webber, the Warriors' No. 1 and No. 2 teenager, expressed his disdain for Lynham and the Jazz, saying that this series will beat the Jazz like the Spurs in the previous round.

And the Warriors' second and second junior Junior. Linham's teammate Sprewell on the Western Conference All-Star also expressed his 'dissatisfaction' with Linhan

"I know Lin very well who he is, and I also appreciate Lin's strength. We've worked together and he's a great player, but I'll show that I'm better than him."

Although Lin Han and Sprewell are not familiar with each other, the two still communicated at the end of the All-Star Game, and the relationship is okay, but it is obvious that because of the previous best team, the Warriors' second-class teenager was resentful of Lin Han.

You know, in the selection of the first team, in the guard position, Stockton scored first, undoubtedly occupying a position for a while, and the third scorer in the guard position is no one else, it is the Warriors guard, Chris Mullin, the dream team superstar, for a long time on the bench Sprewell!

In other words, without Linham, he is the No. 1 scoring guard this year, and he will get another first-line guard position in addition to Stockton.

And this defender who has been successful in competing for positions with Chris Mullin is not comparable to a veteran like Terry Porter, this player who averaged 21+5+5+2 per game this season is the same as Lin Han, he is an extremely versatile player in attack and defense, and extremely rich in offensive means.

Even Lin Han himself knows that it is not a good thing to be targeted by such a guy, and Lin Han also knows very well that this guy's personality is quite eccentric, who knows what kind of things will happen after facing this guy.

Of course, after the Warriors came to Salt Lake City, the players of this team really didn't look down on the Jazz, or these young players of this team were really extremely maverick, which made the head coach of the Warriors, Nelson Sr., quite a headache.

The Warriors head coach's situation with the Warriors is actually not much better than that of Jerry Sloan, who has a good relationship with the players, but does not seem to be on par with the players in terms of tactical play, while Nelson Sr. does not have a good relationship with the players, but the style of play is very compatible.

So it's a fate that these two people can meet now. (To be continued)
