"Huh!" The sound of tearing the basket sounded like a hellish song to the Nuggets, and after Zhang Chen's jumper, they would face a six-point deficit in 17 seconds, unless the Suns hit none of their free throws and they could hit two three-pointers in a row, otherwise they would have lost the game.

The Nuggets really started to shoot three-pointers, and the luck of the ball happened to be on their side, and with the last 12 seconds left in the game, they pulled the score gap to 3 points, and the Suns just started to serve and they immediately made a foul on Nash, but Nash's free throws quickly bankrupted their strategy, and Nash made two free throws to make the score gap back to five points again.

It's just that the Nuggets still didn't give up, and with the last six seconds left in the clock, they actually hit another three-pointer! The hit of this ball filled them with hope instantly, because the gap between them and the Suns was only the last 2 points!

The Suns' possession, the Nuggets' people still went up to foul the Suns the moment the players started to receive the ball, but this time the person who was fouled became Zhang Chen, and Nash was surrounded just now, so he changed Zhang Chen to catch the ball.

Zhang Chen received a pass from the baseline, and then was about to start dribbling, the opponent's Smith immediately stepped forward and hugged Zhang Chen and sent him to the free throw line. Now it can even be said that the success or failure of the whole game is completely maintained on Zhang Chen's free throws, if he can hit the free throws smoothly, then the Suns will be able to gain a 4-point lead, and the last 5 seconds left for the Nuggets can basically win the game steadily. But if he misses the free throw, then the outcome of this game is another story. Everyone's eyes stayed on Zhang Chen's body, on the small leather ball in his hand.

The Nuggets were also nervously watching the guy who had ruined their hopes, staring at the basketball in his hand without turning their eyes away. Zhang Chen completely retracted his thoughts, and then put all his weight and attention on the basket not far away, as if it could give him strength. So, in such a way, the basketball slowly left the horizon of Zhang Chen's gaze in the gentle push of Zhang Chen's right hand as the main force.

The basketball that brought everyone's attention simply fell into the basket, instantly making the hearts of the Nuggets sink downward. It's just that the game is not over yet, they still have a lot of opportunities, and if Zhang Chen misses this goal, they still have a chance to drag the Suns into overtime.

So, everyone once again focused on the basketball in Zhang Chen's hand, as if it contained some wishes of everyone, with hope, grew wings, and flew to the higher and farther sky.

"Huh!" The basketball fell neatly into the basket again, and Zhang Chen's free throws fell into the dust in such a heart-rending way that the Nuggets players were torn apart, and after this ball, the Nuggets completely withdrew from the stage of this season, waiting for them to have a more ill-fated future and unpredictable fate, and for Iverson, he now seems to have been drained of his soul, his eyes are dull, and he has completely lost the unrivaled momentum of calling the wind and rain and controlling the ball just now.

The Nuggets are finished!

They struggled to the next time, but their three-pointer was ultimately rejected by the hoops, and the basket gave the Nuggets players a haunting defeat.

The score was completely frozen, and in the end, the Suns won the game by 4 points, successfully eliminated the Nuggets in the first game of the series, and completed a nirvana of life. From today onwards, the phoenix will have a more vibrant impact, and they will fly higher and farther into the sky.

In this game, the Golden combined to score 56 points, 14 assists and 16 rebounds, and they have done everything they can, especially Iverson, but this did not help their team much, and under the strength of the Suns, the Nuggets fell under their iron hooves. Then it was the final part of the series – the hug.

Iverson, 32, and Nash, 34, hugged each other tightly, and then Iverson burst into tears, once again abandoned by his faith, and fate left him with perhaps the last loneliness. Little did he know that in the near future, he would face an even more unfortunate fate and a lifetime of loneliness.

When Iverson and Zhang Chen embraced, although his words were full of resentment, he still said in Zhang Chen's ear: "Rookie...... I have to say that I appreciate you, our team has suffered a lot under your hands, and this is bad news for us, but you better keep it up, know that your road will not be so smooth again......"

Zhang Chen smiled slightly, and then suddenly said in Iverson's ear: "Actually, Allen, I think there are some things I still want to say to you. ”

"Tell me, I don't like my mother-in-law's guys."

"Actually, you've always been one of my favorite stars, and you've always been my idol."

Hearing this, Iverson suddenly smiled from the bottom of his heart, and finally patted Zhang Chendi on the shoulder, and disappeared into the narrow tunnel of players, the big number three behind him seemed to reflect the lonely fate of his master. Zhang Chen silently gave him one last salute - when he really entered this alliance, his idols would become a symbol, a symbol of rivalry. …… He had ridden on the head of his idol Kobe, and he had also been annoyed by Kobe's words and made gestures that made him feel endlessly humiliated; He also fought against his idol Maddy, who brought Maddy's Rockets to a 23-game winning streak and became a stepping stone to the Suns' near-glory this season; More recently, he pushed his idol Iverson's team into the abyss...... The NBA is such a league that alternates old and new for a long time, although everyone has a dream of dueling with their idol in his prime-like Kobe, he wants to fight Jordan in his prime, and he would rather die for that one. However, the exchange of the old and the new is always an indisputable fact, and how much faith and worship can only become a helpless and long-standing sigh in the long river of history.

After the battle with the Nuggets, the Suns will not have much rest, because the Spurs have eliminated the Jazz 4-0, and the Suns and Spurs will also meet again, they seem to be the enemies of fate, and the biggest obstacle in front of the Suns' grand goal of dominating the league is the Spurs, and if the Spurs want to return to glory, the team in front of them is also the Suns team that has been fighting with them for a long time.

Both teams are gearing up for a big game, and fans are gearing up to watch this rare matchup. This is the most direct battle between defense and offense, and the matchup between the Suns and the Spurs is more of a clash of different beliefs, different styles and different tactical systems, and this game attracts more than just fans of the two teams.

At this time, all the major awards of the 2007-2008 NBA season finally found their owners.

On May 2, 2008, the NBA officially announced today that Zhang Chen of the Phoenix Suns officially won the 2007-08 Rookie of the Year award.

Zhang Chen scored a total of 545 points in the Rookie of the Year award, and 90 of the 125 sports media and television commentators from the United States and Canada[***] voted for him for first place.

As a 2007 non-draft rookie, Zhang Chen averaged 22.7 points per game this season, ranking first among all rookies and second on the team. In addition, he averaged 2.4 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 82 appearances. Zhang Chen made history in this regard, becoming the first non-draft player of the best rookie of all time, an achievement that has never been possible or since.

Seeing the success of the Suns and Zhang Chen, many teams have also begun a frenzy of privately snapping up players, and they have entered the folk to start looking for possible hermit masters, of course, this can only be disappointed, because there are not many freaks like Zhang Chen.

This season, Zhang Chen won the league's rookie of the month three times in a row, creating a record of scoring more than 15 points in the first quarter of 17 consecutive games, hitting 11 three-pointers on the spot, one short of being able to tie the league's single-game three-point shooting record, winning the rookie challenge MVP with 42 points and a stunner performance, and creating the myth of the All-Star Game three-point shooting contest with all-out shots. He scored a team-high 30 games this season, averaging 22.7 points per game to break into the top 10 of the scoring list, becoming the first non-draft player ever to win such an honor. He was named to the league's third team this season and was named to the rookie first team. With such qualifications and such skills, there is nothing wrong with being the best rookie.

Zhang Chen finally got his first recognition in the NBA, and the NBA held a personal press conference for Zhang Chen for market reasons that day, which attracted many Chinese to watch. After Yao Ming's injury, Zhang Chen supported half of the NBA Chinese players, and Chinese fans basically shifted their attention and attention to Zhang Chen.

After Zhang Chen won the Best Rookie award, the Zhang Chen fans of Phoenix also held a small parade, and they were jubilant and cheered on this day.

Touching the award, Zhang Chen also had some mixed feelings in his heart, along the way, he experienced all kinds of difficulties, because he was too tired in the study space, he wanted to give up countless times, but in the end he gritted his teeth and persevered, he has now become a representative of the new generation of basketball players.

On April 22, Yenjing time, the NBA officially announced today that Manu Ginobili of the San Antonio Spurs officially won the 2007-08 Sixth Man of the Season award. The Sixth Man of the Year award was given to the best substitute player throughout the 2007-08 season.

Ginobili scored 615 out of 620 in the Sixth Man of the Year category, and 123 out of 124 sports media and television commentators from the United States and Canada[***] voted for him for first place. The Phoenix Suns' Lindello Barbosa is in No. 2 with 283, and the Dallas Mavericks' Jason Terry is No. 3 with 44 points.

In order to qualify, a player must make more substitute appearances than he or she has started.

New York, 06 May 2008. The NBA officially announced today that Chris Paul of the New Orleans Hornets has been named the Most Valuable Player of the 2007-08 season.

Chris Paul scored a total of 1,100 points in the MVP poll, and 82 of the 126 sports media and television commentators from the United States and Canada voted for him for first place. In the selection, each first-place ballot paper receives 10 points, the second-place vote receives 7 points, the third-place vote receives 5 points, the fourth-place vote receives 3 points, and the fifth-place vote receives 1 point. Paul became the youngest MVP in NBA history at the age of 23 and less than a month.

He averaged 21.1 points, 11.6 assists and 5.6 rebounds per game this season, which is well-deserved in terms of statistics, and the Hornets he led also walked out of the lottery zone in previous seasons and jumped to second place in the West, while Nash was second, but Nash's two regular season MVPs were enough, and what he really longed for was a championship ring.

With the NBA's awards in place to their own owners, this year's playoff situation has become even more confusing. The Suns and Spurs in the West have already settled their opponents and are about to start their second meeting, while the Celtics in the East are locked in a bitter battle with the Hawks, all of which feels a little ridiculous.

The first game of the Suns and Spurs game will also be played at the West Arena in the Suns' home stadium, and everyone has prepared a lot for this, not only from the players' frowns and eager looks, but also from D'Antoni's spitting words. Although everyone didn't pay too much attention to the outside comments and new round of predictions before the game, they also knew that most of the outside reviews were still somewhat unfavorable to the Suns.

The day before the game, Zhang Chen was walking with Lena and Sean in the suburbs, a grassy ground rarely seen in Phoenix Phoenix, and Sean was still in a wheelchair, but the team's recent training had made him look much stronger. Zhang Chen pushed Sean's wheelchair and asked him, "Sean, how does the new team feel?" ”

"It's very good, everyone is very friendly, the coach can give me some space and explain it patiently, I think this is an opportunity for me. He was able to make me understand myself better. Zhang Chen smiled slightly and said, "Okay...... That's your attitude, in fact, I didn't expect that stubborn Sean to become what he is now. ”

Sean was a little embarrassed: "In fact, I have already admitted my mistakes, I will work harder in the future!" ”

Zhang Chen smiled, habitually touched Sean's head, at this time Lena looked at the big and small next to Zhang Chen and them, the corners of her mouth were slightly pursed, she saw the clouds in the sky, the green grass on the ground, relaxed and happy, Zhang Chen asked: "Lena, how are you lately?" How are you doing? It's been a long time since I've seen you. ”

"Oh! I am fine! Thank you for your concern. Lena said: "It's just that, Chen, as you know, our welfare home always lacks sufficient funds, and the quality of the children's food has also declined recently, so I may have to start a new round of running......

Zhang Chen looked at her with some sympathy, but he didn't think about donating money to them all the time, he also had a quota for donating money, after all, one is his own expenses are not small, although the offseason is a good opportunity for him to make money for a Chinese player with a wide background, but it is also a good place to spend money, just inviting a few bodyguards is enough for him to drink a pot, and he also has to support his agent and his player assistant, these are all things he has to pay. The other is that he doesn't want this welfare institute to develop a dependence on himself, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, Zhang Chen is more still thinking about another way to bring Lena once and for all, but there is no way to do this kind of thing if you want the horse to run and want the horse not to eat grass, so it is naturally quite difficult to do it once and for all.

Lena smiled confidently, "It's okay...... There's always a way to find a way, and in fact some of the sponsorships I've asked for these days have been answered a little bit. ”

Zhang Chen said: "Then I wish you success in advance." ”

A few people went back after a while outside, and Zhang Chen received a call from Avril Lavril in the car, and Avril Lavigne's words still revealed briskness, saying: "How is it, the feeling of the best rookie is not bad, right?" ”

Zhang Chen laughed: "Yes, it's pretty good!" It feels great, in fact I really want you to touch my trophy, it's a great gift. ”

Avril said: "It should be very good, after all, it is the league's affirmation of you, and Blanton also said that it feels great when he won the rookie trophy at that time." ”

"As it should be, this trophy is meant to prove our ability...... Belch! Wait a minute! How do you know how Brandon feels when he gets the trophy? Oh, my God...... It's a terrible conversation......"

Avril smiled slyly, "You can ask Brandon about this yourself...... It's much better than asking me. I don't want to answer that question! ”

"Uh...... You've got to tell me, or I won't feel at ease. Zhang Chen said exaggeratedly, which attracted Avril's triumphant laughter...... When Zhang Chen received the call just now, he said sorry to Lena behind him and then stopped the car to call, and then Lena saw Zhang Chen's flying smile and sour questioning, and suddenly she seemed to understand who Zhang Chen was talking to on the phone, and suddenly there was an indescribable feeling in her heart, as if it was a little sour......
