Zhuang Fei's award for the best head coach basically didn't surprise anyone, and his performance with the Lakers this year was the best in the NBA in terms of both performance improvement and history, so there is basically no doubt that he will lose this award until this award is selected.

In this regard, the NBA's other award presented at about the same time as the best head coach, the trophy for the most improved player, was a bit of a surprise, and this season's most improved trophy was won by the Lakers' leading player Kobe Bryant.

When the league announced this award, basically everyone had an incredible feeling, after all, in the eyes of many people, Kobe Bryant is the best candidate for MVP, as for this not so important fastest improving player, they naturally can't put Kobe's name on it, after all, Kobe is already a superstar, and many times the most improved player is impossible to give a superstar, no matter how much the superstar's data rises, after all, for superstars, their strength can no longer be fully measured by data.

Only this time, Kobe Bryant did win the trophy by doubling his score in a season from an average of 20 points per game to 42 points, although this seems a little surprising, but after all, if you only look at the data from the point of view, Kobe Bryant's award is well deserved, so for many people, they are only a little surprised and then very agreeable to accept this result.

After the first round of the Los Angeles Lakers ended early, the NBA's major awards are also slowly coming out, after the best head coach and the most improved player will be released, the third award is the best sixth man award. There are quite a few players who can compete for this award before the selection begins. Only this time this result was also unexpected.

As a rookie. Chris Paul won the award over Ginobili, which is controversial compared to Kobe's fastest improvement but not controversial, and this season is a golden year for Ginobili, the Timberwolves bench player is averaging 21.5 points, 5.5 assists, 5 rebounds and 1.7 steals per game.

It can be said that his performance is absolutely epic among bench players, which is an average of 20+5+5 per game, and no bench player in the history of the NBA has played such a statistic, plus the Timberwolves' second-best record in the league. There is almost no doubt that the Timberwolves' bench player will win the best sixth man, although it is not as sure as Zhuang Fei winning the best head coach, but it is definitely not much lower.

It's just that after this award was selected, he was finally given a rookie backup point guard who averaged 14 points and 9 assists per game, although Paul's statistics are also beautiful, and he is even one of the strongest candidates for this year's rookie of the year, but there is no doubt that in terms of data, he can't compare to Ginobili.

Obviously, Paul's ability to be crowned this award is more due to the Los Angeles Lakers' all-time No. 1 record this season. With such a bonus, I am afraid that the Lakers will become the undoubted biggest winners in this year's major awards. The only thing these people are looking forward to now is Kobe Bryant, who averages 40+ per game and wins all the Western Conference Player of the Month Player of the Month this season, and Webb, who averages a triple-double per game, who will be able to win the final MVP.

Of course, Paul's suppression of Ginobili this year has made public opinion very excited in recent times, but it is very beneficial to Paul, although public opinion has been full of controversy about him recently, but fortunately, it is now the playoffs, and after these awards are selected, there will be more other awards to be selected, and in this regard, Paul has not been stared at by these media for too long.

For example, another award that was quickly selected was the league's best defensive player award, this award was given to the Boston Celtics interior player O'Neal Jr., which is also full of controversy, although O'Neal Jr. is the most important defensive player of the league's strongest defensive team, but there is no doubt that his performance this year is not so outstanding in terms of defensive statistics or other aspects, and in the eyes of many people, Garnett or Ben Wallace is better.

It's the NBA now because of the recent awards have generated a lot of controversy, but this is only one aspect of the NBA, for now, other playoff matchups are still more eye-catching, such as on the day the best defensive player award was awarded, the Chicago Bulls, who are sixth in the East, defeated the New York Knicks, who are third in the East, 105-103 at home, and shocked the whole league when the final game was dragged into the tiebreaker.

Of course, the Bulls and the New York Knicks have played a very anxious playoff this season, in fact, this is just a corner of the playoffs this season. This is especially true in the East, where this year's first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs was definitely the most intense in history.

Especially when the Vancouver Grizzlies, who are the first in the East, faced the Bucks, who were eighth in the East, the first in the East was actually dragged to the sixth game to solve the problem, and in the first four games, it was actually a 2-2, such a thing would have been absolutely unexpectedly at the beginning of this round of the series, but it did happen.

The Bucks' twin towers Okafor and Milicic have caused a lot of problems for the No. 1 team in the East, especially Milicic, the young interior player who has been crazy in the playoffs this season, and this series can actually average 25 points and 10 rebounds per game, making a mess of Rasheed Wallace, who is opposite him.

And the reason why he embarrassed Rashid is that Rashid also needs to help defend Okafor on the other side, and this series Big Ben did not get this rough top pick, and the partnership between Milicic and Okafor is indeed extremely good in this regard. It is precisely because of this that although the Bucks are not as lethal as the Trail Blazers, they have also created enough problems for the team that is the first team in the East.

In addition to the Grizzlies, who are in first place in the East, will eliminate the Bucks with a score of 4-2 when they are in huge trouble, the Washington Wizards, the second team in the East, are also facing the Bobcats, who are seventh in the East, and this season the Wizards have not retreated after Jordan's retirement. Such a bizarre performance is naturally related to the team's clear style of play with Nash as the first core.

This season, after the Magic and Smiling Assassins, another point guard averaging 20+10 per game has performed extremely well. If it weren't for the Lakers' ungodly record. This season's MVP will be his, and in fact he has been the third player in the MVP rankings this season, and the offensive basketball played by the Wizards this season is not much worse than the Lakers is also amazing, but this kind of offensive basketball is a little sad when it meets the Bobcats, and the Bobcats' style of play is very good for this team.

The Wizards' offense is very fast, if the Lakers' offense is fast and complex and unguardable, then the Wizards' offense is to use the simplest routine to play the fastest offense, which is fast in the absolute sense. D'Antoni definitely played the 7-second offense that Zhuang Fei said that year this season.

It's just clear that the Bobcats, under the leadership of Wilkens, are the league's fastest defensive, best defensive moves, and best defensive players this season, although their players may not be as good as the Grizzlies in terms of individual defense in the face of strong offense, but in terms of defensive speed, they are better than the Grizzlies, but the key is that although the Bobcats have problems with the individual offensive of the defensive players, the Wizards are not the team of individual strong offense, in this case. The Wizards brought by Nash have encountered hard stubble, especially in this year's playoffs, and the defensive network formed by Gerard Wallace and Kirilenko has caused the Wizards to make a lot of offensive mistakes.

That's why. The result of this round of the series is naturally conceivable, the Wizards want to meet the Bobcats to play the offense is very difficult, the two teams and the Grizzlies played the Bucks are in a stalemate, but the Grizzlies are more lucky, they ended this round of the very tangled series in the sixth game, but the Wizards were not able to finish within six games, they had a chance to beat the Bobcats in the sixth game, but at the last moment they were caught by the referee strictly, Nash and his teammates were caught a few moving screen fouls in a row when they blocked and dismantled the cover, In the end, the Bobcats completed the comeback and dragged the game into Game 7.

Of course, in the East, it's not just the Wizards led by Nash who dragged the final game into Game 7 with high and low rankings, but also with the New York Knicks led by O'Neal and Phil Jackson, and Wade, who left the Trail Blazers for the Bulls midway through this season, performed extremely well in the second half.

If it weren't for Kobe Bryant's 14 consecutive 40+ performances to cover his brilliance, the new boss of the Bulls would definitely be able to shine more brightly with the record of 16 consecutive 30+ games, and in this round of the playoffs with the New York Knicks, facing almost the main opponent in the finals last season, Wade's performance did not have a trace of stage fright, but was extremely excited.

After all, they won the Finals MVP in their rookie season against O'Neal and Phil Jackson, and for him, these people can definitely stimulate him, and in this case, he has also died as the only player who can contribute an average of 40+ per game in the first round, and he and the Bulls led by Chris Bosh are also stubbornly dragging this series to Game 7.

In the East, except for the Grizzlies who advanced in Game 6, the other three matchups ended up in a tiebreaker, and the same is true for the Boston Celtics in fourth place in the East and the Heat in fifth place in the East.

In fact, even the Lakers did not avoid this, if it were not for Jay Williams, the Lakers' offense might not be able to jump out of the Celtics' defense, in this case, even the Lakers are like this, and other teams naturally can't avoid it. It's just that it's a little different from other teams that Heat head coach God Operator Pat Riley is stronger than other NBA head coaches, he is a rare head coach in the league who can be proficient in offense and defense, like Popovich.

In this case, he was able to find an offensive opportunity in this extremely suffocating defense, and finally dragged this round of the series to the end, but from the current point of view, the next round of seven should be the least suspenseful, because before the seventh game started, such a suffocating defensive battle directly dragged the Heat's two old inside lines Mourning and PJ Brown to the hospital, PJ Brown will definitely not be able to play in the seventh game, and Mourning is to be determined, in this case, the seventh game The Heat basically can't play the Boston Celtics.

Of course, this is the situation in the first round of the playoffs in the East so far, with four matchups. Three games have reached a tie-break. The other is six settlements. This kind of first round of the playoffs is indeed unprecedented, and compared to the horror of the East, the West is slightly better, but not so good. Of course, this needs to remove the Lakers, the league's No. 1 team, who swept through the promotion.

In this year's playoffs, the Minnesota Timberwolves, who are second in the league, will face the Mavericks, who are seventh in the West, and although the Mavericks lost to the SuperSonics in the battle for the fifth spot, this team is not without the strength of the fifth, this is a team with the fifth strength in the West. And unlike other teams, this team is not afraid of the Timberwolves' style of play.

This Mavericks under the leadership of junior general Johnson is a team that can quickly fill, can defend and can attack, and such a team is one of the absolute most difficult teams to deal with, because there are too many changes in such a team, and change is one of the most important things in the NBA playoffs, in this case, this team may be more powerful in the playoffs than the Trail Blazers and SuperSonics in front of them.

The Trail Blazers are a completely inside team, and the SuperSonics are a completely outside team, and although the two teams have a strong advantage, they have not changed much. As long as their opponents choke their advantage, it will be difficult for them to make any more difference. This Maverick is completely different from them.

It is precisely because of this that in the playoffs this season, in the face of the Timberwolves led by Garnett, the Mavericks led by Nowitzki did not have that kind of rout, even if they lost the first game, they could win the second game when they adjusted back, in this case, the two sides of this round of matchups were stunned from the first game to the sixth game, and Nowitzki missed three points to make the Timberwolves difficult to advance to the next round.

Although the Timberwolves are thrilling, but fortunately, they did not enter the final life and death tie-break, and on the other side of the West, the Spurs in the third place in the West and the Trail Blazers in the sixth place in the West, are not so easy, in fact, the Spurs are a very good team that combines inside and outside this season, but in this round of the series, I don't know if Popovich did it on purpose, this team actually played an inside attack with the Trail Blazers when facing the Trail Blazers.

You know, as far as the strong offense of the interior is concerned, there are few teams that can compare to the Trail Blazers, and it can be seen by looking at the Grizzlies on the other side that they have been double-killed by the Trail Blazers for two consecutive seasons, and it is precisely because of this that it seems that the Spurs, who seem to have sealed part of their ability and the Trail Blazers to play inside, naturally do not have any good results, and this team is also the first team in the West to be dragged into the tiebreaker.

In addition to the Spurs, the first team in the West to be dragged to the tie-break, the second team in the West to be dragged to the tie-break is the Raptors in fourth place in the West and the SuperSonics in fifth place in the West.

This round of the SuperSonics and the Raptors game is a shooting competition, because of the existence of Kwame Brown, Ray Allen and Lewis dare not go to the Raptors' interior, and on the other side, the Raptors are a team that focuses on shooting, especially Anthony, the leader of this team, his offense relies most on a variety of shots, in this case, the basketball that these two teams throw the basketball to the basket not far from the three-point line does not make people feel like they have come to the playoffs.

In such a fierce competition in the playoffs, the style of play of these two teams feels a little unbelievable, and of course it is extremely interesting, but a little advantage for the Raptors is that they have a Kwame Brown who can shoot like crazy and grab rebounds, in this case, although the Raptors' shooting is not as good as the supersonic, but the Raptors have the initiative.

Of the eight games in the first round of the NBA playoffs, five of them entered the tie-break, which also directly made the second round of the NBA unable to start, of course, it is unknown what kind of impact this will have on the Lakers who ended their first round of journey early, but no matter what, these five games will end soon, and the next opponent of the Los Angeles Lakers will naturally be decided soon.

The first tie-break results this season came out in the game between the Wizards and the Bobcats, the Bobcats were still unable to block the Wizards' offense on the road, especially after the referee did not catch the Wizards' cover foul at the end of the game, however, although the Bobcats were eliminated, the team's performance this season is still amazing enough, this new army has helped the NBA to establish a position in North Carolina, and now what they need is to promote themselves for better performance next season.

After the results of the Wizards and Bobcats came out, the Heat lost to the Boston Celtics 55-80 in the seventh game when Mourning and PJ Brown did not play, and the score of 55 also created a new low for this team in the playoffs, which can also be seen The horror of the Celtics' defense, in addition to the Celtics' promotion, another seven-tie team New York Knicks also defeated the Heat at home, this game Bosh was dumb at a critical time, and he was able to average 20 points per game in the first six games, And in this game, he only scored 4 points, in this case, Wade scored 42 points on free throws alone, and there was no way to beat the New York Knicks with the Heat.

At this point, all the results of the first round of the East are also out, and in the second round, the Grizzlies, who are first in the East, will meet the Celtics, and the Wizards, who are second in the East, will meet the New York Knicks.

Of course, while the first round of the East is over, the same is true for the West, in the seventh game of the tie-break, the Raptors defeated the SuperSonics 121-110, Kwame Brown grabbed 25 rebounds in this game, 10 of which were frontcourt rebounds, even if Ray Allen and Lewis both hit 68 points again, but still could not change the situation, and the Spurs, who had been competing with the Trail Blazers on the inside, suddenly changed their style of play in the seventh game, Then it was surprising that they easily defeated the Trail Blazers 118-90 to enter the second round, and it was clear that after this game, everyone knew that the Spurs were training with the Trail Blazers.

After the first round of the West is over, the results of the second round are also all out, the Los Angeles Lakers are the first in the West to face the Raptors, and the Spurs are against the Timberwolves, who eliminated them last season.
