Chapter 254: The Spur Running All the Way

"Anna, what is this MVP point for?" On the day after the All-Star Game ended, Meng Xu entered the system space and received the milestone reward of the All-Star Game MVP, but when Meng Xu received the reward, he found that there was still an MVP point that he didn't know what to do.

"MVP points are one of the highest rewards that can be earned in the system, second only to dynasty points. As long as you win any of the regular season MVP, All-Star Game MVP, and Finals MVP, then you can get one MVP point rewarded by the system. Under Meng Xu's inquiry, Anna explained to him very patiently.

"Let's just put it simply, what's the use of this MVP point? And what is this dynasty point? As soon as he heard Anna say that MVP points are a kind of high-level props rewarded by the system, Meng Xu immediately became interested, or as long as it was something that could enhance his strength, Meng Xu was very interested.

"Intuitively, each MVP point can be directly converted into 10,000 points, or 30 unallocated attribute points and 30 skill points, while 5 MVP points can be exchanged for the top props in the system, the Golden Ball Card, after the Golden Ball Card is used, an S-level skill will be randomly generated according to the host's attributes. As for the use of dynasty points, any skill below S-level can be directly upgraded to S-level skills through dynasty points. ”

"It sounds like a great thing, so why isn't there a reward for winning the championship?" After winning the championship with the Spurs last season, Meng Xu was a little puzzled, there are so many rewards in the system, why there are no special rewards for winning the championship.

"There used to be championship points, but before you, the last player bound by the system, after learning the reward of championship points, actually gave up the core position of a team, and at the golden age of 25, he ran to group with another top 3 player in the league at that time, and this guy changed teams before and after in his 15-year career, although he won 9 championships in 15 seasons, but his behavior was also judged by the system to be a bug, so after him, The system canceled the reward of championship points, and divided this reward into MVP points and dynasty points. As Anna spoke, there was a look of resentment in her tone.

"This guy is also a talent, with such a powerful system, he still runs to hug people's thighs." After listening to Anna's words, Meng Xu was also amazed, talent, this guy is really talented.

"Do you still have the face to laugh at others? Your behavior now is not much different from hugging your thighs. Looking at Meng Xu's gloating appearance, Anna looked disdainful.

"You 。。。。。。" Pointing at Anna for a long time, Meng Xu didn't know how to refute her, Duncan is now the top 3 supergiants in the league, if you want to say that Meng Xu is hugging Duncan's thigh, Meng Xu really can't find a way to refute.

The day after the All-Star Weekend, Meng Xu, Duncan and David Robinson returned to San Antonio together, and just after the All-Star Weekend, there was a major trade in the league that could change the entire league, the Hawks' star player, 7-time All-Star, 3-time Defensive Player of the Year Mutombo, and the 76ers' second-in-command Tony Cooke.

In recent seasons, the performance of the Hawks has been tepid, and the team's management has gradually lost patience with the star Mutombo, and at the same time, after Jason Terry played All-Star level data this season, the management of the Hawks wanted to re-establish a core, so although Mutombo's performance is still very good, it was finally sent away by the Hawks' management, and the 76ers paid the price of Tony Cookech and this season's first-round draft.

After the 76ers traded Tony Cookage this season, they also played the best record in recent seasons and are currently ranked first in the East, but now the 76ers, who are weak inside, have no advantage in the face of the Lakers, or the Spurs, or even the Kings and Trail Blazers, therefore, Larry Brown, who is aiming for the championship, also hopes to trade a strong inside, Mutombo's performance in the All-Star Game just happened to be very appetite for Larry Brown, and the Hawks also wanted to send Mutombo away, So the Hawks and the 76ers hit it off, and the day after the All-Star break, the Hawks and the 76ers reached a deal.

After returning to San Antonio, Meng Xu and others also received a notice from the club, starting with Popovich as general manager, Mike Budenholzer, who was an assistant coach at the Spurs, left, and on the day that Mutombo and Tony Cookac swapped owners, the Warriors club announced the resignation of head coach Dave Cowens, and it was Spurs' assistant coach Mike Budenholzer who replaced him. Since last season's offseason, Popovich has been looking for a team to coach for his proud disciple, and now he has finally got his wish.

On February 13th, after the Spurs defeated the Mavericks and Timberwolves at home in a row, they will set off for the East again to start a new round of road trips, in this civil war between the "four big forwards", Duncan overwhelmed Nowitzki and Garnett in personal data At the same time, the Spurs also defeated these two opponents very simply, in these two games, Duncan played 30+15, and Meng Xu also contributed 27 and 29 points respectively in these two games, which can be seen after the All-Star Game, Meng Xu's number of shots and desire to attack are obviously much stronger.

The next round of the Spurs' road trip will be against the Bucks, Wizards, and Raptors 3 teams in a row, and in this road trip, Popovich took another rotation break, and David Robinson, Mario Ely and Sean Elliott did not go with the team. After this year's All-Star Game, especially under the constant touting of Larry Bird's "East Messy Meng", coupled with the league's secret momentum, Meng Xu and Maddie have undoubtedly become the most popular new stars in the entire league, and Meng Xu's popularity has skyrocketed, and the Spurs have also gained more attention. O'Neal withdrew from the MVP race early this year due to paddling and injuries this season, and Iverson surpassed Webb in the current MVP rankings to take the first place, and as the team's record continues to improve, Duncan has quietly risen to No. 3 in the MVP rankings.

After the Lakers All-Star Game, not only did O'Neal fail to return, but Kobe Bryant also retired with an injury in the game with the Nets, so in the absence of both cores, the Lakers also suffered the longest three-game losing streak of the season, and the Spurs are now surpassing the Lakers in the third place in the West, only two wins away from the Kings and Trail Blazers in front.

On February 17, the Spurs played away against the Eastern Fish Belly Wizards, in the absence of three main players, the Spurs still slaughtered the Wizards with a score of 105-80, in this game the Spurs all 7 players in double-doubles, and Meng Xu delivered a career-high 15 assists at the same time, but also scored a game-high 26 points.

On February 18, the Spurs played back-to-back against the Raptors, the Raptors are now plagued by All-Star Weekend Syndrome, in the 3 games after the All-Star, the Raptors all lost, and in this game, several of the Raptors' main players also played abnormally again, only 1 person on the team scored double-doubles, especially Vince Carter, who only scored a season-low 8 points in this game, and finally relied on Duncan and Meng Xu's double-double 20+, and the Spurs also defeated the Raptors with a score of 92-70 in this game.

After the end of the game with the Raptors, the league announced this week's Player of the Week, in the 4 games after the All-Star, the Spurs are the only team to keep winning, and Meng Xu in these four games, can contribute an average of 26.5 points, 8 rebounds, 9.5 assists per game, relying on the Spurs' winning record, and excellent personal data, Meng Xu is also the first time in his career to be elected Player of the Week.

After the subsequent victory over the Bucks, the Spurs returned to the West, and in the following round, the Spurs won over the Nuggets, Lakers, Mavericks and Celtics. And when the Spurs defeated the Trail Blazers 95-87 on the last day of February, the current Spurs' record has come to 39-16, and the gap between the first Kings in the West is only half a win, and the Spurs' first game in March is against the Kings on the road, and this game will not only determine the ownership of the first place in the West, but also likely to determine who will end up with the regular season MVP this season. After trading to Mutombo, Larry Brown in order to adjust the team, the 76ers also ushered in a wave of consecutive losses, winning only three of the last eight games, and Iverson also seems to be suffering from All-Star syndrome, in these games after the All-Star break, has been unsatisfactory. So now not only are the 76ers overtaken by the Bucks in the Eastern rankings, but Iverson has also fallen from the top of the MVP rankings to the third place, already behind Chris Webber and Tim Duncan, if the 76ers continue to perform like this, then Iverson is likely to withdraw from the MVP race early.

At the same time, last week's best candidate of the week is also very intriguing, following Meng Xu was elected Player of the Week, relying on the team's 3-1 record last week, while averaging 32 points, 7 rebounds, and 6.5 assists per game.

After these consecutive games, Meng Xu's average points per game this season has exceeded 17 points, and in the remaining less than 30 games, if Meng Xu continues to play in this style, then Meng Xu is likely to average 20+ per game this season. After being sarcastically hugged by Anna last time, now Meng Xu is also riveting to prove himself, not only is he not hugging his thighs, but he is a real thigh, and after winning the best of the week, Meng Xu's confidence is directly bursting.
