418. Advance to the second round!
A total of 100 judges were invited to vote for the best rookie this year, including 83 North American experts, journalists and TV broadcasters, 10 European journalists, two Chinese journalists, 3 Asian journalists and two South American journalists.
Sun Ce got 50 first-place votes in the vote, and on the other side, Evans also got 50 first-place votes.
In other words, except for the two, no other rookie got the first vote and was divided between the two!
In terms of the second vote, both of them have 44 votes, and the two are tied for the best rookie with 382 votes!
Of the remaining 12 second-choice votes, Curry received seven, Jennings received four, and Jonny Flynn received one......
Except for these two, no one else received the first vote, which is also the first time in NBA history!
There have been three times in NBA history when both of them were named Rookie of the Year at the same time, Celtics legend Dave Cowens and former Trail Blazers star Jove Petrie in the '70-71 season, both of whom received 31 percent of the first vote.
The second was in '94-'95, with Kidd and Hill, both of whom received 40.95 percent of the first vote, and the third time was in '99-00, with Brand and Francis, both of whom received 48 percent of the first vote.
But it's the first time that Sun Ce and Evans have monopolized all the first votes!
In other words, in the minds of the voting media, the two are divided into separate gears!
However, all the players in history who can average 20+5+5 per game are the best rookies.
For example, in the 03-04 season, James received twice as many votes as Anthony in the first choice.
The future Doncic is 98 percent of the first vote.
Normally, this kind of data can monopolize the first vote, so it is unreasonable for Evans to average 21+5+6 per game and not win the best rookie, and Sun Ce and Evans are tied for the best rookie...... That's the most surprising part.
Originally, Evans's stats were still more powerful in the minds of the media and experts, looking more future-oriented, and the overall performance was obviously better, much like a new James had appeared, and it was a more technical James when he first entered the NBA.
Sun Ce's playoff performance definitely has a plus, especially the 50+ triple-double the night before yesterday was decisive for him to win the best rookie!
……
Along with the announcement of the best rookie team, there is also the best rookie lineup.
In the first team of the best rookie team, Sun Ce, Curry, Evans, Jennings, and Darren Collison were selected together.
The All-Rookie Team Second Team was selected by Jonny Flynn, James Harden, Jrue Holiday Jrue Holiday and Marcus Thornton and Ty Gibson.
Class of 2009 All-Rookie Team...... Probably the most bizarre in NBA history, except for Ty Gibson, the other nine are all outside, and even except for Marcus Thorton and Evans, Curry, and Harden, who are two-way guards or swing guards, the remaining five are point guards.
Awards are often the hottest hype before they are announced.
After the announcement, the heat dropped because the suspense had been revealed.
However, for Americans, today is only the best rookie award announced, but for Chinese basketball, this is another historic moment!
After winning the best rookie, Sun Ce was interviewed by major media in the United States like the best rookie in previous years, and the press conference for the award was left for after returning to Memphis, nothing special.
But the program team of the imperial court station is here again......
Just like when Yao Ming entered the NBA, there were special programs for all big and small things, Sun Ce has been playing for a season until now, and he feels used to it.
Record it, record it, anyway, it won't affect Sun Ce's preparation for the war, at most even the training will be filmed...... Let Sun Ce always have a few very diligent teammates around him......
The reporters of the imperial court station are actually much more polite than Sun Ce initially thought, and they give enough respect to any athlete, which is very rare in the world's national media.
……
The suspense about the best rookie is lifted, and eyes are back to the playoffs in progress.
After the Suns swept the Spurs, they have returned to Phoenix to wait for the Grizzlies and Mavericks to split the winners.
On the Lakers' side, Game 5 of the series against the Rockets will be played before the Grizzlies-Mavericks game begins tonight, starting at 6 p.m. Central Time.
The third game of the night, the battle between the Trail Blazers and the Jazz, kicks off at the same time as the Mavericks and Grizzlies.
On the Eastern side, there have been three sets of series to decide the winners and losers, the Cavaliers eliminated the Bulls 4-1 to advance to the second round, the Celtics defeated the Heat 4-1, and the Magic have already swept the promotion.
The East side is waiting for the Bucks and Hawks to split the winner, and the two teams are tied 2-2 and will play the battle of Kings Mountain in Atlanta tomorrow.
The current playoff schedule rules are that the next day after all the games in the same round series are decided, and the first two teams to advance can start the series, so as to avoid a situation like the 2001 playoffs, where the Lakers have a 11-day break before starting the Finals.
After Sun Ce won the award at noon, he was very excited to prepare for the competition with his teammates in the afternoon.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, after an hour's rest after dinner, when the fifth game of the series between the Rockets and the Lakers started, Sun Ce didn't have time to watch it, and the Grizzlies' pregame warm-up had already begun.
However, you can still pay attention to the score after training, and the text live broadcast on mobile phones is faster than the live TV broadcast......
Compared to the third game where the Rockets held on to their home court and lost by less than ten points in the fourth, the gap became obvious in the fifth game.
The first quarter was okay, the score was 24-23, and the Rockets led by one point, but in the second quarter, the Rockets fell behind 19-22, and the overall score was overtaken, and the third quarter was ...... The Rockets scored only 9 points! was defended by 2-of-19 in a single quarter, trailing by 18 points 9-27 in a single quarter and trailing by 20 points in a total score......
When Sun Ce was waiting for the entrance with his teammates after warming up, he saw a live text saying that the Rockets had replaced the main force and announced their surrender.
In this era when the pace of the game is not too fast, there is Yao Ming, the best traditional center in the league, who actually made a single outside combination of Brooks, Kevin Martin, and Anthony, and the sixth person is still JR Smith...... Brooks, Kevin Martin, and JR Smith may all average 20 points per game, Kevin Martin can even be higher, and Anthony has the strength to hit the scoring title, but together, they ......
Sun Ce handed over his mobile phone to the staff and stopped paying attention to the Rockets' games, he felt that Yao Ming's entire Rockets career could only be described in two words - terrible!
Sun Ce focused on the series in front of him!
He currently has one more event to complete, which needs to eliminate the Mavericks in five games.
Now that the team is in full swing, Novitzki, who just finished off his best playoff performance of his career at home, must win tonight, or God knows what the B-level punishment is.
Definitely not rap basketball intern!
……
At 7:40, Sun Ce and his teammates entered the court together.
At eight o'clock, Game 5 of the series began.
Dallas fans...... Today doesn't seem to be as enthusiastic as the first two games of the playoffs, as if it's a little numb.
There was no way, in the first round of 08, it was 3-1 and failed to turn the tables.
Last season, in the second round, it was 3-1 again, but it still failed to turn the tables.
This year is the third year in a row, and Mavericks fans don't feel like there's a chance to turn the tables around.
And it wasn't long ago that during the warm-up phase, Mavericks fans got some bad news.
The Mavericks are in turmoil!
During the Mavericks' tactical training before the warm-up in the afternoon, Kidd and Dampier clashed during training, Dampier's mobility and enthusiasm made Kidd unbearable, mocking Dampier for not playing as well as Hywood with a salary of 12.12 million US dollars......
Heywood was shot while lying down, feeling that he had worked so hard that he was being used as a tool to mock others.
With that start, some of the Mavericks' players began to point fingers at each other, and the prodigal son turned back to Caron Butler, who was too quiet to be good, was pulled into the water, and the fact that he was almost equal to zero on the defensive end was slammed......
The Mavericks' mentality has collapsed, not that they don't feel that there is hope for the future, they see Nowitzki's recovery and feel hopeful for the future.
It's just that I have completely lost confidence in this year's playoffs.
The center position is unreliable, the small forward position is unreliable except for Marion, and DeSean Stevenson has to be asked to play small forward, and DeSean Stevenson is notoriously poor in physical strength, and it will be good to have an efficient defense of seventeen or eighteen minutes in a game, otherwise this outstanding 3D player who can carry James, can keep up with Wade's breakthrough, and can defend Guy and Maddy's outside single jump shot during the Rockets period will not become a homeless.
In fact, this is a problem that the Mavericks have always had this season, Josh Howard was traded back to Caron Butler due to consecutive injuries, the defense is almost gone, Dampier, and the introduction of Haywood ball quotient is not enough, which has long caused dissatisfaction among some people on the team.
It's just that the Grizzlies, a playoff rookie team that fell behind 1-3, even lost the fourth game with Nowitzki's efficient 52 points in a single game, and fell on the verge of elimination, which exacerbated their conflict.
The game was played easier than expected!
The Grizzlies led the Mavericks by seven points at 24-16 in the first quarter, and by halftime, they had already led by 11 points at 46-35!
Sun Ce was very seriously trapped today, and he broke through the opponent and directly wrapped it, Coach Carlisle's tactics prepared very carefully did not play at all, and the Mavericks players have been chaotic from psychology to actions on the court!
Sun Ce played 17 minutes in the half, from the 5th minute of the first quarter to the 9th minute of the second quarter, and got 4 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists on 1-of-4 shooting.
The opponent's unlimited pinch attack, in addition to allowing Sun Ce to easily get 3 assists in 17 minutes, is more so that the rest of the Mavericks can play 4 to 3, Gasol Jr. and Conley played very well today!
Gasol Jr. had six points and four assists in the half, and Conley made two three-pointers in the half, as well as two cut-in dunks......
Conley's Rendu second pulse seems to have been opened up by the air connection in the last game, his vertical bounce and run-up jump have always been good, but he is limited by the lack of explosiveness, it is difficult to complete the full jump in the confrontation breakthrough, and slowly he is not willing to dunk when he counterattacks or air cuts without interference.
But now Conley also chooses to dunk when no one is distracting.
With an 11-point lead at halftime, the Grizzlies were in control.
In the third quarter, the Grizzlies further opened the score, and the combination of Sun Ce + Anthony Parker + Guy + Randolph + Jordan Jr. played a single quarter score of 27-17 in a single quarter, stretching the difference to 21 points in one fell swoop, leading 73-52!
Nowitzki performed okay today, scoring 27 points, 5 boards, 1 assist and 1 block on 9-of-21 shooting in the third quarter, and he continued this form and was the Mavericks' greatest hope.
However, Nowitzki scored 27 points in the third quarter, and the rest of the Mavericks combined for 25 points in the third quarter......
In the fourth quarter, Coach Carlisle on the Mavericks' side announced his surrender and replaced the main players.
In this situation, Coach Carlisle can't help it, just like last year's second round against the Nuggets.
However, there is still hope for the future, and Coach Carlisle feels much better than last year.
In the end, relying on Gasol Jr.'s 14 points, 6 boards, 9 assists and 5 blocks' 4 times 5 data, Randolph's stable 22 points and 8 boards, Sun Ce's 7 points, 9 boards and 6 assists, Conley's 25 points and a new playoff career high, and Gay's 16 points, 4 boards and 4 steals......
The Grizzlies defeated the Mavericks 95-72 and advanced to the second round for the first time in team history!
