Tang Wenlong hugged his senior, Carmelo Anthony.

"Little Melon" had bitterness on his face, and hugged Tang Wenlong hard with both hands, "You played an excellent season, a perfect series, congratulations." ”

Before the game, he was tense and did not show weakness, and after the game was really over, Tang Wenlong returned to that humble appearance, "There are a lot of luck that seem to be on our side, but I am very happy to be able to play against the Knicks, I feel very honored to be able to play against you, you are a great opponent." ”

Hearing Tang Wenlong's praise, Anthony's depressed face looked a little better, and he showed an ugly smile, "Come on, strive to win the championship, you have such strength." ”

Tang Wenlong nodded, and the two ended the conversation, taking pictures around the camera with long guns and short guns, and the flash lights were constantly lit up, leaving many precious pictures.

Without flowers and streamers, the Knicks fans left the court in disgrace, leaving only a small group of fans in black jerseys, which were 76ers hardcores who had come from Philadelphia, who spontaneously stood in place to celebrate, waving the 76ers' flag, and letting out a howl of surprise in front of the camera, and many fans wearing the No. 1 jersey pointed to the No. 1 on their chests with both hands pointing at the camera.

Tang Wenlong walked over and high-fived and hugged the familiar Knicks, Xiao Si, Chandler, Jeremy Lin in a suit and leather shoes, and even Shambaugh, who showed outstanding defensive ability in this series.

He and the 76ers then walked back into the tunnel, where Knicks fans on either side reached out and high-fived him.

At the bottom of the TV screen, a line of subtitles is also typed. The 76ers since the 02-03 season. Reached the Eastern Conference semifinals for the first time. It has been 9 years now, and in 03, Iverson led the 76ers to defeat the Hornets 4-2 and advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinals, but in the semifinals that year, the 76ers lost to the Pistons 2-4 and stopped in the second round.

Tang Wenlong himself didn't feel anything, because this was the second season of his career, and he almost made it to the second round last year, didn't he?

But the rest of the 76ers were thrilled. Iguodala, Speights and others were extremely excited at first glance, and David West was also very satisfied with the current situation. He chose the 76ers over the Pacers this year, not because it's closer to his hometown of New Jersey, but because the 76ers have more potential than the Pacers, and it doesn't look bad at all.

In the locker room, the 76ers players let out a ghost crying wolf in celebration, Tang Wenlong clicked on his mobile phone and saw that they were all sending text messages congratulating him on entering the second round, and there were more than a dozen messages from Fang Chuxia.

Tang Wenlong smiled. Fingers quickly tapped across the screen, replying to messages.

"What about you? How I didn't see you. ”

Fang Chuxia: I'm in the aisle. There were too many people, a bit crowded.

Tang Wenlong immediately replied with great concern: Then why don't you go out later, it doesn't matter, or I'll come out?

Fang Chuxia: Why are you coming out, but you are all Knicks fans, and you are not afraid of being beaten?

Tang Wenlong: ......

Tang Wenlong thought for a while, and then sent a message: "Then you wait for me in the parking lot, let's go out for a ride at night later, this game is over, we have time to take a little rest, and we shouldn't have to be banned tonight." ”

Fang Chuxia: "Okay......"

……

As the playoffs progress, the season's major awards have gradually surfaced.

First of all, the best rookie was won by Kyrie Irving, who averaged 18.5 points and 5.4 assists per game, especially the much-talked about scoring ability in the fourth quarter, and averaged 6.4 points per game to rank fifth in the league, second only to Durant, Tang Wenlong, James and Kobe.

Subsequently, James Harden won the NBA Sixth Man of the Year in the 2011-2012 season, and he was also the first player in the history of the Thunder to be elected Sixth Man of the Year. As a result, the Thunder Twins began to be called the three young men of the city, and Harden was also considered a figure like Ginobili.

It is worth mentioning that Louis Williams received the second most voted points after Harden, who averaged 14.1 points, 3.6 assists and 1.1 steals per game on the bench this season, and even more efficient than Harden, who averaged 31 minutes per game.

The 76ers are most concerned about the Coach of the Season award, and the media in Philadelphia have built momentum for Collins, believing that with the 76ers' improvement this year, Collins should be a strong contender. There are really a lot of competitors, such as Spurs head coach Popovich, who still won 50 games in the shrinking season, and Bulls head coach Thibodeau, who still won the second place in the East despite the lack of the team's core Rose.

Fortunately, the sweep of the Knicks in the playoffs added points to Collins, and the final results came out that Collins narrowly beat Popovich by a small margin and was elected the best coach in the 11-12 season.

At this time, Tang Wenlong and the 76ers team members had returned to Philadelphia for a day of rest, and the 76ers' official website posted a message of celebration and congratulations, and held a press conference specifically for Collins, who brought his daughter and wife to accept the award ceremony together.

The press conference was a joyous affair, and most of the reporters' questions were mild.

Soon, the league's Most Improved Player award was also announced, belonging to the big shooter Ryan Anderson from the Magic, and the young man who once competed with Yi Jianlian on the same team became an eye-catching presence this season, after all, the big man who can master a beautiful shot from the outside is always a hot commodity.

After the first round, the Bulls won 4-2 against the Pacers, the Heat defeated the Magic 4-1, the Celtics lost to the Hawks 3-4, and in the final tie-break, the tired Celtics were obviously constrained by the shrinking season.

On the Western side, the Spurs swept the Jazz, the Thunder swept the Mavericks, the Clippers defeated the Grizzlies 4-2, the Lakers narrowly defeated the Nuggets 4-3, and the Nuggets, who were obviously weaker on the inside, dominated the rebounding throughout the series.

At this time, the second round of the game between the Heat and the Bulls on the eastern side started first, the two teams met in the Eastern Conference finals last year, and this year due to the problem of record, the semifinals met again, after a year, there is a taste of mortal enemies between the fans of the two cities, the game has not yet started, and the first to explode socially, instantly becoming the focus of attention.
