The outcome of the first playoff game between the Heat and the Cavaliers has attracted a lot of attention. As soon as the news of Wade's muscle tear and inability to continue playing was officially announced, it made many games pay attention to it and cry out for pity. You must know that the biggest attraction of this series is LeBron. James & Dwyan. This kind of brotherhood and feud between Wade, without Wade, anyone will feel that something is missing in the game.

The mainstream media in North America is not like Charles. Barkley was so frustrated that they focused on the outcome of the game and Wade's injury, as well as Edison's big double-double and his excellent form.

Although the Cleveland media spared no effort to use the word "brush" to describe Addison's stats, and kept pointing out that the Heat lost the game, this did not stop more and more people from making positive comments about Addison, and more and more people recognized the Chinese-American point guard.

The intensity of the playoffs has at least doubled compared to the regular season, and even if it is a "brush", the players who can "brush" nearly 30+10 data in the playoffs are all prominent in the history of the league. What's more, as long as you watch the game, you can see how important an important role Addison has played for the Heat. After Wade and Whiteside left, it was him and Ruhr. Deng was supporting the team to bite the score. And once Addison is out of the game, the Heat will gradually open up the point difference.

However, the whole country did not discuss Addison's astonishing data for long, and the next successive events attracted the attention of the do-gooders.

The first is that the league announced the penalties for the two players who were ejected from yesterday's game, and the uniform teams of the Heat and Cavaliers are anxiously awaiting this moment. Tristan. Thompson will be fined $30,000 for a second-degree malicious foul and suspended for the next game; Hassan. Although Whiteside did not make the most severely forbidden punch moves, his behavior had a clear tendency to violence, so the league also banned him for the next fight. However, the fine did not come to Whiteside, which made him relieved that the young centre-forward, who was still on a base salary, could not afford to toss a few times.

Addison's reaction to the punishment was nothing but a smile, almost exactly as he had expected. No matter how much Miamians feel that such a punishment is unfair and protest upward, the league will not make any concessions. Adam. Xiao Hua's preference for the Cavaliers and Warriors, the two teams he hopes to create a dynasty, may not be obvious, but the discerning person has already seen it clearly...... Shaw is definitely not going to let the Cavaliers lose Tristan. Thompson's case also kept the Heat's interior intact......

Obviously, the Heat's uniform team also had the same idea, and after the punishment results were announced, they didn't even have the mood to protest and went straight to training. At least the team's starting center forward in the next game will be Alexie. Atkinsa, and in the shooting guard position, the coaching staff still prefers Daniel, who is experienced and has long legs. Granger, Taylor. Johnson is better suited to be in the second team to be responsible for stealing points.

With only one day to recuperate before the next game, the training arranged by the coaching staff has completely become a run and pass that everyone is cooperating with Addison. With Wade lost in the starting lineup, the Heat's greatest hopes were pinned on the first-year rookie. As long as Addison plays the same invincible form as he was last night, and waits until Whiteside is released from suspension and returns to the court, then the Heat still have hope of moving forward.

Moving on, or going home, the Heat can only choose Addison, who is experiencing the playoffs for the first time, to carry this rare and huge burden on his back. They're making the bet while also preparing to establish a first-year rookie as the absolute core, and if the team suffers a crushing defeat in the rest of the schedule, they'll admit it.

"This is an opportunity, boy, to be better." Gary. Payton said during his one-on-one training session with Addison, "It's a bit of a bad deal for Dwyan's injury, but you should also know that there aren't many opportunities like that. Now regardless of the Ruhr. Deng or Whiteside are your stepping stones, not stumbling blocks, and until Dwyane returns, this team's tactics are all built around you. There's never a better opportunity to make a statement of your presence to the league. ”

- Is this guy satirizing me from the side that I didn't have a sense of existence before...... Addon sneered at Peyton's muttering voice like a demagogic spell, but agreed with what the other man said. The Heat, who have Wade, are naturally more sure of victory, but in Wade's absence, Addison can almost always possess the ball and improve his shooting possession. No matter how efficient a player is, if he wants to play shocking statistics, he has to rely on a lot of ball possession.

This series is both a great danger and an unprecedented opportunity for Addison...... An opportunity that he must seize.

***

Just as the Heat were working hard for their next off-the-road game, the league announced the 2014-15 NBA regular season MVP winners.

The three most popular MVP candidates this season are LeBron of the Cleveland Cavaliers. James (25.3 points, 6.0 rebounds, 7.4 assists, 1.6 steals, 0.7 blocks), Stephen of the Golden State Warriors. Curry (23.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 7.7 assists, 2.0 steals, 0.2 blocks) and James Harden of the Houston Rockets (27.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, 7.0 assists, 1.9 steals, 0.7 blocks). Due to injuries and the Thunder's absence from the playoffs, Kevin Brown. Durant and Russell. Westbrook and the Thunder both failed to compete for the MVP of this regular season, which undoubtedly dimmed the competition.

In the end, it was Stephen. Curry was named the 2014-15 NBA regular season MVP, and he received 101 of the 131 first-place votes, overwhelmingly beating James. Harden and LeBron. James. This result was somewhat unexpected by Addison, because the regular season MVP he had in mind was James James. Harden. Although there are some criticisms about the beard's defensive habits and offensive style, Addison still acknowledges the importance of Harden to the Rockets and his leadership role.

This season, the Houston Rockets have the second-highest regular season record in the West, with a 56-26 record. In the absence of on-the-spot command skills from head coach McHale, Dwight Brown has been lacking in on-the-spot command skills. With Howard becoming more and more functional, the Rockets can have a bright record, mainly because of James. Harden did a core job.

In terms of heart, both in terms of stats and the absolute core role of the team, Harden is slightly better than Curry. But the league doesn't just focus on numbers, it's also about a player's positive image, his ability to communicate with the media, and his impact on the league and the world. In these comprehensive aspects Stephen. Curry is indeed more than a little better than Harden, which is a big reason why he was able to get more first-place votes than the other two contenders.

"That babyface actually won the MVP ......" Whiteside couldn't help but pout when he saw the news, he bet on LeBron when he made a bet with Addison yesterday. James will be the regular season MVP. Failing to bet on the right person made him feel a little unhappy.

"Don't forget that we haven't beaten the baby-faced team yet, and they've been a big league win this season." Ruhr. Deng, a veteran who has been in the league for many years, knows all too well what the MVP selection is all about. Curry's election was not a surprise at all, "They weren't the initiators of small-ball play, but they were a sign of a new era in the league." Stephen. Curry is the brightest member of this logo, and both the league and the media will naturally focus on him. ”

"It doesn't matter who is the MVP of the regular season, I just hope to play quickly......" Whiteside muttered in a muffled voice, due to the next game Alexie. Akinsa is the starting center, and now Whiteside can only be assigned to the bench team during training, which makes him quite helpless and annoyed, "This damn ban, I want to sue the entire league to federal court now!" ”

"Even if you take them to the Supreme Court of America, you'll be the one who loses the case." Ruhr. Deng had an ambiguous expression of 'I'm from here', "In this country that claims freedom and fraternity, there has never been a case where a white man has lost a business case against a black man...... Of course, if one day your influence reaches the level of Bryant, it may have a different outcome. But now you're just a rookie with a base salary, so put up with the ban honestly. When you get an annual salary of $20 million a year, you will be eligible to make Adam. Xiao Hua: Consider your feelings. ”

Addison, who was drinking Gatorade with a towel on the side, smiled tacitly. Deng said it very directly, but it is definitely the truth of survival in this alliance. Since the founding of the NBA, countless players have tried their best to achieve championships, as well as resounding popularity and tempting contracts. The league encourages players to pursue wins and high contracts, and only then can the business league function, attract more investment, and create greater value.

Cleveland spent the day in practice, and the coaching staff forbade Addison to practice alone after the team's joint practice, and the Chinese point guard had to go back to the hotel to get an early rest. The young man lying on the bed felt a little bored after sending a few messages to Joe and Lin Xiaoxiao, and was about to pull Whiteside to play two 2Ks, but received a message from the agent Sam. A message from Bernie.

- The NIKE brand has a rough idea for your first generation of signature sneakers, and they want to contact you to hear your opinion.

Signature Sneaker ...... Addison's eyes lit up, for basketball players, it is undoubtedly an honor to have their own exclusive signature sneakers, and it is also a recognition of your strength by the brand. Addison didn't expect NIKE to put his own sneakers into action so soon, and he thought it would have to wait until next season.

If all goes well, Addison will be the second rookie in the class of 2014 to have his own signature sneaker, just behind Andrew, who is held by Adidas as the jewel of his hand. Wiggins.

But......

- Tomorrow is the second game against the Cavaliers, Sam, I don't have the energy to think about sneakers right now.

- I know, so I told them to contact you after tomorrow's game. Let's find a time to meet with the team responsible for making your signature sneakers.

- Good idea...... It's up to you, Sam, and I trust you 100%.

- I guessed you would say that...... As always, you won't be disappointed.
