On April 23, 2000, all 8 games in the first round of the NBA playoffs ended, and the two days of play can be said to be very stable, with none of the 8 games upset, and the top 4 teams in the two divisions all won.

On April 25, after a two-day break, the Spurs once again hosted the Suns, and the course of this game was simply a remake of the previous game, 85-77, the Suns lost without a temper, and did not lead once in the game, and Anfernee Hardaway once again scored a game-high 35 points. After two home wins, Spurs are almost certain to enter the second round.

There is basically no suspense in the first round of the playoffs this season, after two rounds, the Lakers, Spurs, Trail Blazers, Jazz, Heat, Knicks, and 76ers all took a 2-0 lead, and only the Pacers, the boss of the East, overturned in the gutter and were stolen by the Bucks to a home court. Immediately after the Pacers' 91-104 home loss to the Bucks, some media began to calculate the possibility of the Bucks' Black Eight, and some betting sites have even opened markets for the game. Following the success of the Knicks' Black Eight last year, if there is another team to have a Black Eight this season, it will definitely be another explosive news.

Just as the first round of the playoffs was coming to an end, on April 28, the league announced its regular season for the season

The best team, the best team of the season is Shaq O'Neal of the Los Angeles Lakers, Tim Duncan of the San Antonio Spurs, Kevin Garnett of the Timberwolves, Jason Kidd of the Suns, Gary Payton of the SuperSonics, and the five players on the first team this season are all from the West, which is rare in the history of the entire league, and it can also be seen that the whole league is strong in the west and weak in the east.

The second team of the regular season team of the season is Alonzo Mourning of the Heat, Grant Hill of the Pistons, Karl Malone of the Jazz, Kobe Bryant of the Lakers, and Allen Iverson of the 76ers.

The three teams of the regular season All-Round Team are David Robinson of the Spurs, Chris Webber of the Suns, Vince Carter of the Raptors, Eddie Jones of the Hornets, and Stephen Marbury of the Nets.

After the All-NBA Team was announced, this season's Defensive Player of the Year and All-Defensive Team were also released, and in the end, Spurs rookie Meng Xu narrowly beat Alonzo Mourning to become the first rookie in NBA history to be elected Defensive Player of the Year. Meng Xu played in 79 games for the Spurs this season, including 54 starts and 25 bench appearances, playing an average of 31 minutes per game, and can score 8.5 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.9 steals, 2.5 assists, and 1.4 blocks per game. Meng Xu's 3.9 steals per game this season is the first in the league, 1.2 ahead of Eddie Jones, who is in second place, and Meng Xu's 1.4 blocks per game are also the most among all outside players in the league. Not only that, Meng Xu also became the first player to steal 300+ and block 100+ in a single season since the league had detailed statistics.

With the honor of the best defensive player, Meng Xu also successfully entered the best defensive team this season, and several other players who entered the best defensive team are, Tim Duncan of the Spurs, Gary Payton of the SuperSonics, Kobe Bryant of the Lakers and Alonzo Mourning of the Heat, Mourning became the league's block king with 3.7 blocks this season, if it were not for the appearance of Meng Xu, Mourning would likely achieve two consecutive best defensive players.

The second team of the best defensive team is Shaq O'Neal of the Lakers, Kevin Garnett of the Timberwolves, Scottie Pippen of the Trail Blazers, Eddie Jones of the Hornets, and Jason Kidd of the Suns.

Among other awards, Steve Francis of the Rockets and Elton Brand of the Bulls shared the best rookie of the season, Francis averaged 18 points, 5.3 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game this season, and Brand is also a player who can reach 20+10 in another rookie season after Duncan. The Suns' Rodney Rodgers won the Sixth Man of the Season. Jalen Rose of the Pacers was elected the most improved player this season, and Jalen Rose, who averaged 11 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist per game last season, averaged 19 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4 assists per game this season, which is very close to 20+5+5 data.

And the selection of the best coach this season is a little incomprehensible, Doug Rivers, who coached an NBA team for the first time, was elected the best coach of the season, you must know that the Magic he coached this season has a record of only 41 wins, and there are too many candidates who are more qualified to be elected as the best coach than him.

In the final announcement is this season's regular season MVP, in the final vote, Shaq O'Neal received 80 first votes, and was elected this season's regular season MVP without suspense, O'Neal played a total of 79 games this season, playing an average of 40 minutes per game, scoring 29.7 points per game, 13.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 3 blocks of data, shooting rate as high as 57%, this season O'Neal became the league's scoring champion for the second time in his career, In addition, O'Neal's rebounding and blocking statistics are all in the top five in the league, and the Lakers have a league-best record of 67-14 this season, and Shaq O'Neal's election can be said to be expected.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the system random mission: the best defensive player." Meng Xu, who was doing some recovery training in the training hall, suddenly screamed and jumped up when he heard the system prompt sound in his ears.

"Neuropathy." Duncan, who was practicing free throws, saw Meng Xu, who was startled, with a look of contempt.

"Cut, I'll go back, seniors practice slowly, I won't accompany you today." At this time, Meng Xu had long lost the mind to train, grabbed his training clothes and ran.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for entering the best defensive lineup for a while, rewarding 500 experience points and 500 points."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the S-level random task, gaining 3,000 experience points, 50 attribute points, and an S-level defensive skill card."

"Ding, the host completes all the novice random tasks, and the random mission system is closed."

"Anna, what does it mean that this random quest system is off?" After hearing this prompt from the system, Meng Xu was also a little puzzled.

"The random mission system is closed that you will never receive randomly triggered tasks in the future, and the random mission system is only open in the host's rookie season, according to the normal procedure, it should be closed after the regular season is over." Hearing Meng Xu's call, Anna appeared in front of Meng Xu with a bucket of popcorn.

"Pit daddy's system."

"It's okay, I'm going back to the movie, and I'm seeing a critical moment."
