Chapter 298 Won the Grand Prize of the Year

"Mo Ning made five mistakes, and his movements were a little big." Teacher Song said.

Zhang guided: "The grudge between the Heat and the Knicks is too deep, the year before last in the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Knicks led 3:1, but the two teams fought, and the main players on the Knicks' side were banned, allowing the Heat to turn the tables 4:3. Last year, the two teams fought again, and Coach Li was really competitive, leading the team to black seven, and directly eliminated the second-place Heat. ”

As the two were talking, the picture on the big screen changed and turned into an award ceremony.

Teacher Song hurriedly explained: "This is the award ceremony before the game, and the winner is the head coach of the Knicks, Li Wei!" ”

At the end of the season, the NBA awards the All-NBA All-NBA Team, All-Defensive Team, All-Rookie Team, and a number of individual awards.

Of all the awards, the MVP (Most Valuable Player) is definitely the most talked about, which is also the highest honor in the individual player awards. Note that MVP is the highest individual award, and the highest collective award is of course the overall champion.

This year's MVP market is a three-legged stand, with Malone, Mourning, and Duncan all having high voices, and in the end Malone won by a narrow margin.

In addition to MVP, the most important award is the best defensive player.

This year's Defensive Player of the Year is Mourning. The Hawks' Uncle Mu has been in a row for two consecutive years, the supersonic record is not good, and Uncle's biggest opponent Payton has also faded out of sight, so the advantage of new block king Mourning is overwhelming, and he got 89 out of 118 votes.

The Rookie of the Year is Vince Carter, who is even more suspenseful than Mourning's best defense.

The best general manager is Geoff Petrie of the Kings. The Kings have made four of their five starters this season and are making the playoffs under new coach Adelman, and he deserves to be the best.

The Sixth Man of the Year and Most Improved Player awards were both given to Darrell Armstrong, the Magic's backup point guard. Penny Hardaway hasn't been as good as he used to be this season, and it was Armstrong's sudden rise in the '91 draft, which had been on the sidelines for many years, that made the Magic into the playoffs.

In addition to the above well-known awards, the annual awards also include the Ethics Award and the Kennedy Citizen Award.

In the early 80s, the NBA also held a comeback award for the best comeback athlete of the year, but it was stopped after only six sessions. In a few years from the past, they would have received the Best Teammate Award, the Community Contribution Award, and the Lifetime Achievement Award, among other things.

The Ethics Award is given to the most sportsmanlike player on the field, and this season's Hussey Hawkins of the SuperSonics won the award.

The Kennedy Citizenship Award is usually given to the person who has made the greatest contribution to a charitable cause, such as the aforementioned center Chris Dudley, who was blocked and pushed down by O'Neal.

Dudley himself has diabetes, so in 94 he set up a Chris Dudley Foundation, BA looks, the young man has a good heart, there is development, give you an annual award! So in 96, the award went to him.

This year, the 98-99 Kennedy Citizen Award, the winner is Li Wei!

Because he entered the alliance under the name of a disabled person, Li Wei has donated to the disabled in the past two years, so the alliance should commend Li Wei's contribution to donating to the disabled.

Li Wei didn't expect that he had just won the monthly award a few days ago - the best coach of the month, and there is an annual award waiting for him today!

The trophy of the Kennedy Citizen Award is very chic, with a globe on it, and Li Wei, who received the trophy, is very happy and laughs there all the time.

"The Kennedy Citizen Award is one of the NBA's annual awards, and although this award cannot prove a player's quality like MVP and Best Defensive Player, it can prove a player's quality. Coach Lee gives us the impression that he is hot-blooded, patriotic, and in the minds of Americans, he is also a very caring person! ”

Teacher Song said: "Love knows no borders, and both Chinese and Americans like him very much, which is amazing. I don't think this award is any less important than an MVP award. If everyone could give a little love, the world would be a better tomorrow. ”

Director Zhang nodded and said, "That's great, Coach Li is not only good at ball, but also beautiful in his soul!" ”

At halftime, the score was 44-56 with the Knicks leading by 12 points. Coach Zhang didn't know that Coach Li, who was "beautiful in the heart", had been thinking about how to make the Heat center foul six fouls!

Pat Riley also knew that Li Wei was playing this idea, so he didn't let Mourning play at the beginning of the second half.

Earlier this season, Riley signed former All-Star point guard and Trail Blazers' all-time assist king, Terry Porter, and the "poor man's version of Barkley" Clarence Witherspoon. However, there are many injuries in the shrinking season, the Heat's few interior lines last season, Sweet Candy only played one game and was reimbursed for the season, and Marty Conlon was also riddled with injuries and did not even enter the 12-man squad.

Therefore, in the hands of Riley, in addition to the starting Mourning and PJ Brown, the 1.98-meter Witspoon, there is only Doon Coswell, who was blown up by Big Z last season.

Riley knows Coswell's strength very well, and he will not be sent on the court unless he has to, and the inside line can only be Mourning, Brown, and Witherspoon!

Li Wei saw that Witherspoon was coming up again, so he let Nowitzki play center, Garnett played big forward, frequently blocked and dismantled, and took advantage of Witherspoon's lack of height to let the big guy score on his head!

Riley was counting on Witherspoon to blow up the Knicks on the offensive end, so that the two sides would blow each other up, and the Heat would not lose. But the rookie German of the Knicks really has some ability to limit this "poor man's version" Barkley to a certain extent.

When the score of the two teams increased to 20 points, Riley had no choice but to send the star Mourning again, and the smell of gunpowder on the field became strong again in an instant!

The referee had no choice but to blow it!

At the end of the third quarter, Mo Ning left the court with six fouls, and the scores of the two teams were still 20 points apart. Losing the first pillar of the team, the old and weak Tim Hardaway is getting more and more iron, and Mashburn still has the strength to fight, but unfortunately two fists are hard to beat four hands!

The entire fourth quarter almost turned into garbage time, and the Heat lost 77-101!

Da Yao had 6 points and 3 boards, Garnett had 22 points, 4 assists and 4 boards, Alan Houston had 20 points, Nowitzki had 15 points and 5 boards, and Charlie Ward had 8 points and 4 assists.

On the bench, Big Ben had 5 points and 9 boards, Stephen Jackson had 13 points, Nash had 6 points and 3 assists, Bo Outlaw had 4 points, Nesterovic played 2 points and 2 boards in garbage time, and Bowen also played in garbage time, with 0 points, 0 boards, 0 assists and 1 foul.

Because of the smell of gunpowder, Li Wei did not play, he was afraid that he would become the target of the Heat players!

After the game, Pat Riley was furious and bluntly said that the referee dominated the game!

Li Wei said: "The referee's whistle today was very fair, he did not appease the Heat, and did not turn a playoff game that was supposed to be a basketball game into a Heat-style ugly wrestling performance, he wants to praise the referee!" ”

Because of the notoriety that the Heat team has always had, there are not many fans on their side, and most fans have been led by Li Wei, thinking that the Heat team is very dirty and needs to be punished with a strict whistle!
