Chapter 244: Best Rookie

The Timberwolves defeated the Dallas Mavericks, a strong opponent, because of their own strength and the factors that restrained the Dallas Mavericks.

The Dallas Mavericks are still missing a top perimeter defender after all, and if they can have a defensive gate on the perimeter, or a top-notch ball-handling offensive on the perimeter, then everything will be unknown.

When the Timberwolves meet such a Dallas Mavericks, it's hard to say if they will survive.

However, the past is the past after all, and now that the Timberwolves have passed the first round of the playoffs, they naturally have to think about the next opponent, and it is useless to think about the Dallas Mavericks.

After all, if the Dallas want to strengthen their roster once again, it will have to wait until the summer offseason.

The next opponent for the Minnesota Timberwolves is the Phoenix Suns led by Steve Nash, a team known as the immortal birds in the league.

This season, the Phoenix Suns gathered a lineup of MVP Steve Nash, Smalls, dunk king Jason Richardson, and Grant Hill, which is the confidence of the Phoenix Suns to dare to attack the championship this season.

The Phoenix Suns have lost to the San Antonio Spurs several times in previous seasons, and the old Spurs coached by Popovich are like a big stinking and hard rock, lying on the Suns' championship path and not giving the Suns a chance to move forward.

This season, Steve Nash held his breath, he intends to control his playing time well this season, the average time per game has dropped a lot, but the efficiency is well guaranteed.

When Nash wasn't on the floor, the Suns had Grant Hill step up to take over the offensive banner for him, and the son of the Pistons, who was once ruined by injury, is now reborn in Phoenix City. I started to have the strength to chase the championship dream again.

The Phoenix Suns are on their way to a championship this season, and they are trying to beat their old rivals, the San Antonio Spurs, in the playoff arena and teach them a hard lesson.

However, to Steve Nash's surprise, he did not wait for the promotion of his old rival San Antonio Spurs, but waited for the promotion of his younger brother Bruce Lee. The opponent in the Western Conference semifinals turned out to be the Minnesota Timberwolves, who looked extremely weak.

The old rival Spurs met the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round of the playoffs, and the Purple and Gold led by Black Mamba Bryant directly wiped out the old Spurs Hunters and advanced to the second round.

Nash was impressed by Li Shihao for the first time, and he did have a positive attitude towards Li Shihao, which once came from what they had in common.

In Steve Nash's view, Li Shihao's unpopular experience in college is very similar to him, but his little brother still survived, rose all the way, and now has become the biggest dark horse among this year's rookies. Beat a host of talented rookies and was voted Rookie of the Year.

With the end of the first round of the NBA's annual awards, the final candidates are gradually emerging.

This year's Rookie of the Year was won by Lee Se-ho, the second foreign Rookie of the Year in NBA history, who won 119 out of 126 votes and was voted the Rookie of the Season by an overwhelming majority.

After all, the Timberwolves' changes this season still let the expert reporters in the league see Li Shihao's efforts, even if they continue to hack Li Shihao's "cancer" attributes. But in the final ballot, most of them cast their hearts.

Lee Se-ho became the second foreign rookie in NBA history. The last person to win this award was none other than Marc Gasol's brother Pau Gasol, and now, when this award was awarded to Li Shihao, Marc Gasol felt a lot.

When he entered the league, he also had fantasies. To be able to take over his brother's banner and be voted Rookie of the Season, but unfortunately he had Derrick Rose in his rookie season, and the Chicago star is too good for Marc Gasol to understand. The young self will not be a match for Derrick Rose.

Now, when he saw his teammate Bruce Lee receiving the award, Marc Gasol did not have a ripple in his heart It was fake, but Gasol Jr. was very calm, he saw it very openly, since the best rookie has been missed, all he can do is to continue to work hard and become a first-class center in the league, or even the first center in the league.

There is no shortage of strong players in this alliance, only successful challengers!

As soon as the results of Li Shihao's selection of the best rookie in the 2009-2010 season were announced, the official staff of the German giant Adidas immediately called Li Shihao to congratulate him and informed him that the prize money for the best rookie in his sneaker contract had been transferred to his personal account.

Li Shihao was naturally very happy to hear the news, although the honor of the best rookie is one of the inconspicuous honors in the league, but he is indeed extremely important to many players, and even in the eyes of many American experts, the importance of this honor is far greater than that of the All-Star Game MVP, for a player, there is only one chance to get this honor, once elected, it means that you are the best rookie in the year, there is no one.

It's not that there are no late bloomers in this league, but on the road to catching up with legends, the law of one step first, step by step has become the standard for most players, and very few players can show the color of the pearl in the sea.

The prize money for the best rookie is $2 million, and Li Shihao did not use the funds, leaving it all to Bill Duffy, who is a professional agent, and he understands how to allocate the funds.

Duffy has set up a professional team of managers for Li Shihao and began to take care of business matters for Li Shihao.

A film and television company has been created with a registered capital of five million US dollars, and its name is Totem Pictures, which is taken from the Chinese culture of wolf totem.

Since Li Shihao plays in the Timberwolves, the wolf is naturally the best mascot, his film and television company is named Totem, and the LOGO pattern is not a vulgar street-like dragon-shaped sign, but a wolf's head logo, dark rendering, which looks restrained and domineering.

The funds were immediately transferred to Totem Films, which is about to start investing in the filming of its first film and television, the name of the film is "Latent", the script was written by James Winne's friend Revonal, this white young man is also a thriller genius, and he has a good script.

The idea of this movie has been in place for a long time, and when the two learned that Li Shihao wanted to enter the film and television industry, they took out this movie and planned to enter Hollywood with it.
