Chapter 243: Age of Vic Forest?
The Timberwolves won, in fact, it is no longer news for the Timberwolves to win, the Timberwolves can win any team in the league, they have this strength, although many media experts predicted before the game that the Trail Blazers would cause a lot of trouble for the Timberwolves, and even beat the Timberwolves on the road, but the final result was too sad for these people, and even the way the Trail Blazers lost even made them feel deeply ashamed.
"Congratulations to the Timberwolves, they are doing a great job now, this game Timberwolves beat their opponents with a royal style of play, now those who advocate that the Timberwolves are crooked can shut up, the Timberwolves prove that they can win the game in any way" This was the headline of the sports section of Zhuang Fei's royal newspaper USA Today the next day, in this report, USA Today deliberately focused on the NBA's so-called' The king's style of play, of course, the king's way of playing is naturally that everyone stops and plays positional offense, and it is best for the two sides to fight hand-to-hand on the inside, obviously the Timberwolves did this game, just the day before this game, the New York Times did not finish sarcastically satirizing the Timberwolves for playing crookedly, and crooked ways can never win the championship in the NBA.
"The Timberwolves just won one game, there's nothing to say about it, I watched the game, the Trail Blazers were very unlucky, they missed a lot of must-score goals, and the Timberwolves' luck was fantastic, especially Garnett, he was always able to hit a lot of difficult goals in this game, which is not their true level, and it seems to me that the Trail Blazers have found a way to beat the Timberwolves, so I still stick to my opinion. It's just one game, the Trail Blazers can still beat the Timberwolves in Game 2, and then win this series" This is the headline of the sports page of the New York Times the next day, the Timberwolves This game is very shocking, it can be said that the rumors that the Timberwolves will not attack the position are broken, for this extraordinary victory, the New York media still will not admit that this is the strength of the Timberwolves.
"Now the Timberwolves have shown what is best about their team. Coach Z is unabashedly showing his strength, and he is also unabashedly countering everyone's suspicions, and they don't have to hide it. The Timberwolves now consider themselves strong enough for everyone to see what they're capable of, and then the Timberwolves are still able to defeat these enemies, which is terrifying. This game tells us that Coach Z has challenged all the NBA playoff teams, and now the Trail Blazers are losing? What about the Lakers? Well, the Lakers are now in a quagmire" This is the statement of the Los Angeles media, for the Timberwolves, they are now only envious and jealous, and the Lakers, who are also crazy in the regular season, have now begun to mess up, originally everyone agreed that this year will be the Timberwolves and the Lakers, but in the end they found that the Lakers have fallen behind, let alone compare with Coach Z or the Timberwolves, and now the Lakers and Grizzlies are playing so sadly.
In addition to the Timberwolves and Trail Blazers game yesterday, there were two other second-round games, the most interesting of which was naturally the Grizzlies and Lakers game. This is the third away game in the West against the second in the West, before this game Grizzlies leader Vince Carter received the regular season MVP trophy from NBA Vice President Stuart Jackson, this season Carter led the Grizzlies to the top three in the West, especially in the second half of the season, the life-threatening run made the entire NBA frightened, coupled with Carter's efficient and stable performance this season. In fact, before this trophy was drawn, almost everyone had expected that this season's regular season MVP would be none other than Carter, but when this trophy was really won to Carter, all the media really began to exclaim.
"Wake Forest has won the NBA regular season MVP trophy for two years in a row, Duncan is last year, Carter is this year, is it Szzerbiak next year?" Although such speculations and reports are a bit of a joke, it is clear that they are more of an exclamation. Wake Forest's two biggest names are too strong after entering the NBA. …,
"Actually, I don't want to admit that some people say that the NBA has entered the Wake Forest era, but obviously, the league is developing in this direction, don't just see Carter's MVP trophy this year, although this year's best rookie is Brand, Francis and James Posey are tied, but it is obvious that the Vic Timberwolves have completed three consecutive domination of this trophy, will next year's best rookie be Wake Forest? I think now all the teams that are afraid of being selected have been eyeing the players of Wake Forest, this year's Wake Forest's results in college have taken a step back compared to last year, this year Wake Forest only reached the final eight, but this has not affected Joe Johnson's draft position, he is considered to be able to be selected by the top five picks, but the Carter successor does not seem to have any plans to enter the NBA, maybe he also hopes to win an NCAA championship trophy, but no matter what, The era of Wake Forest may indeed have come."
In fact, Carter, the party who is the MVP winner, didn't realize what the Wake Forest era was, he just knew that he was one step closer to Duncan again, and he was very excited and excited, so in the subsequent game with the Lakers, the new MVP picked up his weapon again, and in this game he did not choose to pass his teammates, but his own crazy killing, the Lakers who were full of contradictions in this game actually lost by 20 points at home, and even cheered for Carter in Staples, Every time Carter walked to the free throw line, the shouts of the MVP on the scene came and went, and Zhuang Fei also made a congratulatory call to Carter after the game with the Trail Blazers.
In fact, it is also a miracle that a college head coach can cultivate two NBA regular season MVPs when he comes, although Zhuang Fei has some regrets that Garnett failed to win the award, this year's major individual awards like to play tied, this year's All-Star MVP and the best rookie are tied, Zhuang Fei originally thought that this year's regular season MVP should also be tied, but in the end, Carter won it alone.
The Timberwolves did not touch any of the major individual awards of this year's NBA regular season, the best coach is the Magic's rookie coach Doug Rivers, and the fastest improvement award is Tracy McGrady of the Boston Celtics, this season Maddie has changed from a 14+5 player to a 21+6 player, such a big stride is definitely worthy of this award, the Timberwolves' little O'Neal is also somewhat competitive in the fastest progress award, Xiaoao 2+3 last season, 10+ this season10, it can be said that the same progress is rapid, but in the end it is still a lot inferior to Maddy, in the selection of the best sixth man, the winner of this award last season, the Timberwolves' Mobley dropped a lot this season because of the arrival of Ginobili, and finally lost the opportunity to defend this award, this season's best sixth man was won by Rodney Rogers of the Phoenix Suns, of course, except for the loss of O'Neal Jr. on the fastest progress award, In the award of the best defensive player, the Timberwolves' Garnett also lost, this time Garnett lost to Duncan, this season's best sixth man is Duncan, in fact, many expert coaches thought that Duncan could win this trophy last season, just because Duncan had robbed Mourning's regular season MVP in the end, so the best defensive player was given to the block king Mourning, and this season can be regarded as a compensation for Duncan. In fact, Duncan is much worse on the defensive end this season than last season, which is also related to the decline in the overall strength of the Spurs.
This season, the Timberwolves have not won any individual awards, which is a great pity for the Timberwolves, who have the first regular season record and almost broke the Bulls' regular season record, but with these individual awards, the Timberwolves have a bit of a big win in other selections.
The selection of this season's best team for the Timberwolves was all selected, Garnett was selected to the first team, Pierce defended the second team, Nash also made it to the third team for the first time, the NBA best team this season was led by regular season MVP Carter, the center is Shaq O'Neal, the forward is Duncan and Garnett, the guard is Carter and Kidd, and the second team is the center Mourning, the forward Malone and Pierce, the guard is Payton and Iverson, and the center in the third team this time is David Robinson of the Spurs, Obviously, this is also a compensatory honor, the general has definitely not been selected to the All-Star team this season, and the forwards are Hill and Webber, and the guards are Nash and Kobe. …,
In addition to the best team, the Timberwolves players also entered two people in the selection of the best defensive team, Garnett is the first team to defend, and Stephen Jackson is the second team to defend the team, this season's NBA defense team is led by Duncan, and then the other four are Garnett, Mourning, Payton, and Lakers teenager Kobe Bryant, the second team is led by Pippen and O'Neal, and the other three are Kidd, Eddie Jones and Stephen Jackson of the Timberwolves.
In addition to these two major lineups, even the Timberwolves' rookie Wang Zhizhi was selected for the second team of the best rookie team. According to Zhuang Fei's understanding, when Wang Zhizhi won this award, he was on the CCTV golden program news broadcast, which is also the first time that a Chinese player has been involved in the NBA award, in fact, Wang Zhizhi's data is completely unable to enter the best rookie team, but this is a kind of compensation for the all-star player in the league, the all-star can not be too second, and the Timberwolves are the best team in the league and lost all the individual awards, so there are also compensation points in such a lineup award.
It was only when everyone rearranged these lists again that they found that there were a large number of players in it who were inextricably linked to the Chinese.
"Maybe this is not the era of Wake Forest, but the era of me Zhuang Fei" (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
