The Sixth Man of the Year award is voted on by 121 sports journalists and announcers from across the United States and Canada, and each judge votes for their favorite first, second and third place player. Each first-place vote represents 5 points, the second-place vote is 3 points, and the third-place vote is 1 point, and the final score of each player is counted, and the player with the highest award receives the award.

And this year's Sixth Man of the Year award has been Jason Terry of the Mavericks and Nate Robinson of the Knicks and JR Smith of the Clippers, among the three, Terry played 73 games in the entire regular season and only started 11 games, despite coming off the bench, Terry averaged 33.6 minutes per game, averaging 19.6 points per game for the Mavericks, shooting 46.7 from the field and 88 from the free throw line, and stood up from the bench many times throughout the season to save the Mavericks.

And Nate Robinson's stats are also beautiful, with only 11 starts in 71 appearances all season, averaging 17.5 points, 4.1 assists, and 3.9 rebounds per game, which are still achieved while averaging only 24.8 minutes per game. However, the Knicks' poor regular season record will have a big impact on his vote.

And JR Smith is the most unremarkable of the three, 82 games undoubtedly started, and the average playing time is only 25.6 minutes per game, which is a little lower than last season in Denver, but JR used a whopping 48.4 shooting percentage and 2.9 three-pointers per game to average 15.3 points per game for the Clippers, which is only 0.5 points less than Artest, who ranks second in scoring, in the entire Clippers team, and the call for JR-Smith to win the best sixth man with the Clippers' terrifying 69 wins is also rising.

"It's just a 36-point difference, which is a shame." Artest said helplessly.

JR-Smith looked around at his teammates, all of them had expressions of pity on their faces, and smiled: "Guys, I don't have any pity, why are you like this?" Our goal isn't to help me win this award, we're an O'Brien Cup. ”

"Of course, our goal is definitely the O'Brien Cup, but next season you'll get this award, I guarantee you're going to win it." Andre Miller said, patting his chest.

The playoffs in the West continued, and the Clippers' potential next opponent, the Lakers, slaughtered the New Orleans Hornets with 44 points in Game 7, and the three interior players contributed 55 points and 42 rebounds, which made the Clippers' supporters tremble.

Maddie led his Rockets to knock out the third-placed Youth Army Trail Blazers, and Maddie Yao Ming managed to break her maiden debut.

The Spurs, who are second in the West, have not been blessed by God, and Ginobili in the troika is injured and misses the last two games, which directly leads to the new best sixth man playing alone on the bench, and the Mavericks, who are in seventh place, have played the black seven, and the people of the Holy City do not believe in tears because they will come back next year.

The postseason label in the East is miserable and easy, LeBron James further added weight to his regular season MVP, and the average 35+9+9 data per game in two triple-doubles and four games kicked out the Pistons, who had suffered for many years, and swept away the evil spirit in his heart for many years.

Orlando defeated the Philadelphia 76ers in six games to advance to the semifinals under the leadership of their new super center, and they have long forgotten the pain of the big shark's departure.

Hawks Joe Johnson finally proved that he wasn't a playoff softie, putting on a whistle-blowing stunner to knock the Flashes out of the playoffs in Game 7.

No one expected the brutality of the old boy Celtics and youth army Bulls game, the whole seven games of seven overtime five games were within three points, and the old boys with more experience in the seventh game sent the bulls away, and the Windy City did not grieve because they harvested the future.

On May 4, the second round of the playoffs officially began, the Dallas Mavericks vs. Houston Rockets, the pair in the playoffs again after four years, the interior of the world, Yao Ming, who is likely to snatch the All-Star first team spot from Howard this season, reached the second center Dampier with 33 points and 14 rebounds.

"Man, I don't know where I should be in line, but I'm sure I'm the last one." Yao Ming, who won the best player after the game, answered reporters' questions when he was in the center forward position.

Los Angeles, Clippers Tactics Room.

"We've got to disrupt the Lakers' rhythm, and we need to do more, even if it's fouls." Mike Dunleavy drew a line of offensive and defensive tactics on the board.

The derby against the Lakers in the second round of the playoffs is set to kick off tomorrow, and the only good thing is that their road is also a lot less of a travel hassle.

"Ron, Bryant is still leaving it to you, just like the simulation training for the past few days." Mike Dunleavy said as he looked at Artest.

"Head, no problem, I'll do everything I can to defend, guys remember to help me get my share, otherwise I won't let you go." Artest whistled.

These days, in order to figure out how to deal with Kobe, Mike Dunleavy finally decided to sacrifice Artest's offense to let him defend with all his might, while Gu Fei was in charge of helping.

"Andre, I think you should be able to handle it against Derek, you are our key, Josh, Tyson, Roy, you three have a lot of pressure, but don't let the pressure crush you, you and your teammates want to win, even if they can take a hundred points on your head, let him take it, we just need to win, I hope you understand."

While the Clippers are actively preparing to deal with the Clippers, so do the Lakers.

"Why did the Clippers get so strong?" Phil Jackson held his glasses in his hand.

The Lakers players sitting in the chairs were silent one by one, they defeated the Clippers in the playoffs last year and finally reached the finals, and this year they met the Clippers again It is completely different mentality, last year they did not put the Clippers in their opponent position at all, even if they lost two games to the Clippers in the regular season, and this year the Clippers are on their opposite side, whether it is record or popularity, there were only Lakers in Los Angeles before, and now people will always remember that there is another Clippers.

Gu Fei's running three-point point has been deeply understood since his rookie season when he was with the Lakers, and now Gu Fei is no longer the rookie with a relatively single function at the beginning, now he can not only run and shoot, he can break through, pass the ball, and defend.

"You know what to do, although they have a few big hearts, but Gu Fei is the most important one." Phil Jackson's eyes swept over his teammates.

"Leave it to me." With a heavy gasp, Kobe raised his head and looked firmly at Gu Fei on the Clippers bench not far away.

It was the second overtime of the first game of the second season of the Los Angeles playoffs derby, and at the end of regular time, Gu Fei used Kobe's signature shot to complete a life-saving blow under Kobe's defense and take the Clippers into overtime.

In the last second of the first overtime, Gasol made up Kobe's shot into the basket and dragged the game into the second overtime, the difficulty of the game can be imagined, at this moment there are two seconds left before the end of the game, the Lakers only lead by two points, and just now Kobe Bryant struggled to shake off Artest's entanglement and scored a goal to overtake the score before Gu Fei made up the defense.

The air in Staples seemed to stop flowing, and the atmosphere was suffocating.

Despite Artest's desperate defense, Kobe Bryant was still undaunted, and he had scored 42 points tonight, while Gu Fei had only rested for five minutes in the whole game, scoring 44 points and 9 assists for the Clippers, completely breaking Ariza's defense.

"How does Gu feel?" Mike Dunleavy asked with concern, Gu Fei is the team's biggest reliance, and now the team is still two points behind and needs Gu Fei to stand up.

"I can." Gu Fei's answer was very simple, he had to do everything possible to save his physical strength, even if he used physical recovery training to recover his physical strength, he was almost exhausted by the two overtime games, and what he wanted to do most now was to win the game and go back to sleep.

With the referee's whistle, the final two seconds of the game came.

Tyson Chandler, Steve Novak, Gu Fei, JR Smith, Andre Miller This is the Clippers' lineup for the last stand.

Bayram, Gasol, Odom, Ariza, and Kobe Bryant are the Lakers' last stand, and they have only one purpose to hold on to the final two seconds to win.

"Don't try to score goals." The familiar voice drilled into Gu Fei's ears.

Gu Fei smiled, turned his head to look at Kobe Bryant who was sticking to him, "Who knows?" ”

Kobe Bryant stopped talking, and used his long arms to interfere with Gu Fei's sight of catching the ball.

Two seconds of attacking time is undoubtedly short, meaning that you have to make a shot to do two moves at most.

The referee's whistle signaled Tyson Chandler to start serving, and the moment the whistle sounded, the nine players on the field immediately ran, "running out of position" This is Gu Fei's most direct idea, accelerating, stopping, turning, and retreating Gu Fei threw Kobe Bryant away most of his body with all his physical strength.

Seeing Gu Fei run out of the vacant seat, Chandler immediately sent the ball over.

When Gu Fei caught the ball, Kobe Bryant re-blocked in front of Gu Fei, and the two faced off at the three-point line, and time did not allow Gu Fei to make too many moves.

A sudden step back, opportunities are always born and disappear in an instant, and Kobe Bryant is right in front of him.

Hesitate? Decisive?

Gu Fei didn't have any idea of hesitation, watching the basket jump up, Kobe Bryant's raised arm interfering with Gu Fei's vision.

Leaning back, with a flick of his fingers, the basketball left his fingers and flew into the air, dodging Bryant's block and flying higher.

Everyone's attention was on this little basketball.

honk

The whistle blew for the end of the game. More than 20,000 people in Staples did not have any sound, and the silence was depressing.

boom

The sound of the butt and the floor hitting was particularly harsh in the huge Staples, and the body slid backwards, Gu Fei still did not put down his raised fist, and his eyes followed the basketball with hope in the air.

swish

The corners of Gu Fei's mouth hooked a charming arc.
