Chapter 193: Double Week Best

And Ding Mo'an is David. Stern breaks the bottleneck and continues to make the NBA a key to development. And whether it is Ding Mo'an's personal performance or ability to lead the team this week, it has been widely recognized. After all, Ding Mo'an led the team in the hands of the Rockets and Magic, the two top teams in the league, and led the Grizzlies Youth Army, which had just entered the rebuilding this season, to defeat the Rockets and defeat the Magic by five points.

To achieve such a proud result, the pro-Ko faction is at most using the guise that Kobe is the leading sign of the league to fight back against the pro-Ding faction. Because of Ding Mo'an's performance, it is even better than the alliance leader in their mouths. Now that a week has passed, Ding Mo'an has jumped to the first place in the league's scoring list as a rookie, and his performance can be called impeccable.

So, after closing his eyes and listening to the quarrels of his subordinates, David . Stern also slowly opened his closed eyes, his right hand slightly curled into a fist, and tapped the tabletop with a crisp thumping sound. Hear David. The sound of Stern's tapping on the table was still a mess, and the high-ranking officials of the alliance who were chirping and arguing were silenced.

This is David. The prestige that Stern has built up over the past 20 years. The source of prestige, of course, is also David. Stern brought the NBA, once a small league, to the feat of bringing the NBA to the top 4 of the national sports league in just over 20 years. And David tapped on the table. Stern was also pleased with the performance of his subordinates.

After all, David. Stern has never been a domineering president who blindly follows the advice of others. Mr. Domineering President, the reason why he held an emergency meeting was purely to listen to other people's opinions, and after listening to it for a while, he was going to go into battle shirtless and make the best decision this Western Week.

"Ding and Kobe Bryant are our main signboards in the future. But now that Kobe Bryant is 30 years old and in his prime, we should really think about developing new talents. So this time, the best of the Western Week will be awarded to Ding. As for the reason, I don't need to say more, presumably Ding's performance this week is clear to everyone. ”

David. After Stern's decision, who dared to object. Even if the proponents believe that David. Stern didn't need to plan so early, but they weren't the ones sitting in the president's seat, so they couldn't afford to beep as much. Besides, even if Ding Mo'an's performance this week won the best of the week, it was at most Kobe Bryant fans and Lakers fans.

After all, in this week's personal performance, Ding Mo'an is indeed much stronger than Kobe. It's just that in the face of the Magic, who have a super center and a group of outside shooters, the five points are lost. But such a performance, on a team that has just entered the rebuilding period, unless it is deliberately finding faults, is a good performance in the eyes of most people.

No one can criticize a team that has just entered the rebuilding period, at the beginning of the new season, without a long run-in, can step on the Lakers, Rockets, punch the Celtics, Magic, unless it is a 2K simple man-machine mode, that scenario may appear. It is precisely because of this that even in the game between the Grizzlies and the Rockets, several days have passed, but Ding Moan led the Grizzlies to win from the top team of the Rockets, and it has not dissipated the heat, which has become a topic of conversation among many fans.

Because it is the incredibleness of it, otherwise who talks about the game a few days ago all day long, defeating the strong with the weak, has always been a story worthy of special mention. And in David. When Stern made the Western Weekly Awards, a vice president moved on to the next topic, but when the vice president read it out, many people in the room burst out laughing.

"Mr. President, the best rookie of the Western Week, is it Ding?"

The vice president who reported on the topic was just on business, otherwise he would not have bothered to ask such a retarded question in front of so many people. Maybe there may be doubts about the best in the West, after all, the rival with Ding Mo'an this time is Kobe Bryant, who is now recognized as the No. 1 scoring guard in the West and even the No. 1 scoring guard in the league. Therefore, the old and new Mars collided with the earth to blow up David. Stern was going to make the decision himself.

But what about the Western Conference Rookie of the Year? Could anyone still snatch Ding Mo'an? But some of them thought more, and then suddenly showed a frightened expression. Because in the blink of an eye, Ding Mo'an not only won the best rookie of the Western Week, but also won the best rookie of the Western Week, and won the best of two projects in a row, which is unique even in the history of the NBA!

Even if he is as strong as Old Man Joe, he has enough to average 28,2 points per game in his rookie season, and he will never be able to defeat Kobe, the league's leading guard, in the first week of his career, and win the best rookie of the week.

33 points per game!

The horror is no longer enough to describe the level of evil that Ding Mo'an is now.

So, not surprisingly, David. There's no reason why Stern shouldn't let Ding Moan be named the Western Conference Rookie of the Week. First, his original intention was to support Ding Mo'an, although he didn't expect Ding Mo'an to really succeed Kobe Bryant in the future, but the reason why he is supporting Ding Mo'an at present is the Chinese market.

This is David. The main reason why Stern favored Ding Moan.

Because compared with big shoe brands such as Nike and Adidas, China, the largest country with a population of 1.3 billion, has a large market that is crucial to whether the NBA, a professional league, can continue to move forward rather than stand still. After all, those who make sporting goods don't need to promote basketball and the NBA.

They just have to watch the NBA go and lay down a market, then settle into the country, enter the market, use their own merchandise and sign stars, increase brand awareness, sell their own merchandise and make money. Both are of different nature, but the essence is the same.

Think about it, if there are 300 million people in China who know the NBA, another 100 million people who watch the NBA occasionally, and 100 million who watch the NBA regularly, then this basketball market will be so terrifying that it will directly exceed the fans of all leagues in the United States combined. This is also David. Stern's vision.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to sow the first seeds of the NBA in China in the eighties and nineties in advance at a nearly free price. And now, with the rapid growth of China's economic power, David . Stern has seen the seed blossom and bear fruit, so it is essential to defend this fruit and harvest this fruit.

And after tonight, it will also indicate that the NBA will rise again.

Memphis, eight a.m.

After Ding Mo'an finished the two-hour physical recovery training in the early morning, took a shower and changed clothes, he sat on the dining table and ate breakfast. And Uncle Zhang has tuned the TV to ESPN's sports channel at the moment. After all, mixed officials. The people on the scene should watch the news broadcast to understand the current policies, and in the news broadcast, they should inspect the politics. To treat the sense of smell, the mixed sports world also needs to pay attention to the recent events.

Listening to the narrators on TV, Ding Mo'an, who has always been loveless, focused on the food on the plate and gobbled it up. However, compared with the normal breakfast that Uncle Zhang and Zhang Kexin ate, the breakfast that Aunt Zhang made for Ding Mo'an was a nutritious meal made according to the recipe of summer weight gain training.

After all, as a professional athlete, you must be able to control your mouth when it comes to eating. And Ding Mo'an also relied on himself to be a quasi-son-in-law, and enjoyed the tasteless small stove. But when the TV screen was transferred to the NBA Express, Uncle Zhang, who had been listening with his ears pricked up, suddenly shouted.

Frightened, Ding Mo'an choked suddenly, Aunt Zhang immediately threw Uncle Zhang a roll of the eyes, and handed the milk on the table to Ding Mo'an in distress, and blamed: "It's early in the morning, what are you calling nonsense!" ”

Aunt Zhang's Hedong lion's roar did not interrupt Uncle Zhang's startling, he hurriedly turned around and pointed to the TV screen. At this time, the host in ESPN was saying: "This week's NBA Western Conference Player of the Week is Ding Moan from the Memphis Grizzlies, and the Eastern Conference Player of the Week is Chris from the Toronto Raptors. Bosh. ”

Best of Western Week?

When Uncle Zhang heard that the best of Western Zhou was Ding Mo'an, the emotions in his heart suddenly brewed, but before he could burst out first, sitting at the dining table and following Uncle Zhang's eyes, he saw that the host read out Ding Mo'an, who was the best of Western Zhou, and it was his own name, but he shouted: "Ahhhh I'm the best of the week! ”

Best of the Week!

Even if Ding Mo'an didn't care anymore, Zhou's best meaning was still like a hammer hitting his heart. Perhaps for Kobe Bryant and other league superstars, the best of the week is no longer new to them. But for Ding Mo'an, it is undoubtedly the best news in this short vacation.

At first, Ding Mo'an was still very nervous about whether he could win the best of the week, although his personal data has surpassed Kobe Bryant and other Western stars, but the fatal injury in the record is an unavoidable problem for Ding Mo'an. After all, his number one rival, but Kobe, the No. 1 scoring guard in the West, is inferior to himself in personal data, but he can't stand up to a three-win and zero-loss record, and he is stable on his own.

Because the best of the week is not only based on the data, but also on the team's record. So Ding Mo'an didn't have too many expectations for Zhou Hao, but when he learned that he really had to win the Zhou League, he took away the Zhou Hao from Kobe, the No. 1 scoring guard in the West, and Ding Mo'an was stunned by this unexpected joy.

And Ding Mo'an won the best of the week, which also made Uncle Zhang ecstatic, but before the two of them digested the unexpected joy, the ESPN host read again: "Next, it's the best rookie of the week." The winner of the Western Conference Rookie of the Week is Ding Mo'an, who performed bravely this week and won the Western Conference Player of the Week in one fell swoop. The Eastern Conference Rookie of the Week is Derrick Brown, who is a teammate of the NCAA Tigers and entered the NBA this season with Ding. Ross. ”

And a Rookie of the Week?

Uncle Zhang has already stunned the successive surprises. Just ask, how terrifying it is for a rookie to win the Western Conference Player of the Week and the Western Conference Rookie of the Year in the first week of his debut season. Jordan didn't do it, Kobe Bryant didn't do it, Iverson didn't do it, and even LeBron, who has been called the little emperor in recent years. James, the pride of heaven and recognized as the strongest rookie of the 21st century, has never done it.

And Uncle Zhang knew very well that Ding Mo'an's personal data in this week's game had no moisture at all, and he didn't score points in any team at all. first scored 32 points on the head of the Rockets, breaking the record for the highest scoring in a rookie debut, and then facing the Magic, a powerhouse in the East, also led by Ding Mo'an and not giving up, erasing the original gap between the two teams to five points.

In the end, even if he met the Bulls, in front of the Grizzlies who had been baptized by two strong teams, the weaker team, Ding Mo'an did not have any traces of scoring. You know, Ding Mo'an has never appeared for even a second in garbage time. In addition, in the game with the Bulls, Ding Moan played a total of 20 minutes and scored 31 points.

Such a high scoring efficiency has long embarrassed a group of super scorers who are called scoring machines.

Compared with Uncle Zhang, who was excited that he won a double weekly award, Ding Mo'an was not half excited about the best rookie of the Western Week. If it is said that the best player of the Western Conference is a big surprise for Ding Mo'an, then for the best rookie of the Western Week, Ding Mo'an is never worried that this award will slip out of his fingers.

It's your own!

Does this need to be asked?

Ding Mo'an really can't think of anyone who can snatch this rookie of the week from his own hands.

So indifferently yes, but with such a big happy event coming, Ding Mo'an felt that he had an excuse to party, and it was extremely easy to find. And the news that Ding Mo'an won the Western Conference Player of the Week and the Western Conference Weekly Rookie of the Year was also known and spread in various ways.

This is a rarity in the history of American sports.

What's more, the person who created the record of winning the Western Conference Player of the Week and the Western Conference Rookie of the Year in the first week of his rookie season is still the yellow race who has never been the most favored in sports history. It is a shock to the American sports world, and the same news is also a black question mark face for Kobe Bryant, who is far away in Los Angeles.

"The host just said that Ding is the best player of the week in the West?"

Kobe Bryant asked in disbelief about Vanessa, who was held in his arms and the leader of the Lakers' wife's group. Just now, Kobe Bryant also watched TV, of course, his purpose was to see where the best of the week belonged. However, when the name of Ding Mo'an appeared on the Western Conference Player of the Week and the Western Conference Rookie of the Year, Kobe Bryant, who was slumped on the sofa and enjoying a leisurely holiday, almost fell to the ground.

Vanessa is a little worried about her husband's current state, and at the same time, she is very clear about who Bryant is referring to. After all, a few months ago, she remembered Kobe Bryant and Paul. Gasol went to the NCAA Final Four between UCLA and the Tigers, and came back like crazy and stuck to the wall, drawing circles on it.

"I guess so."

Vanessa didn't want to provoke Kobe, so she could only tactfully try to deal with the problem.
