Chapter 272: Defending the Title with Ease, Looking Forward to the Future [In the Finale]

Although there are multiple players on the Hornets team this year who are eligible to compete for the Finals MVP......

But as the current face of "Hook", Curry was still elected as the FMVP.

In Wang Shuo's previous life, the selection results of next season's NBA Finals MVP are outrageous.

The 14/15 Season Finals in History......

Curry averaged 26 points, 6.3 assists and 5.2 rebounds per game for the Warriors, shooting 44.3% from the field and 38.5% from three-point range, losing to Andrea Iguodala, who averaged 16.3 points, 4 assists and 5.8 rebounds per game for the Warriors.

Of course, in that series, Iguodala received a gift from James.

But comparing the career data of Iguodala and James, it is not difficult to find that Iguodala also enjoyed team benefits from the Warriors in a sense at that time.

After all, in basketball......

Defending is never something that can be done by a single player.

In Wang Shuo's view, according to the logic of the NBA judges in the 14/15 season in history, many finals MVP selection results in history will be controversial.

Fortunately, in the 21/22 season, after setting the famous flag of "no one wants to meet us next year" the year before, Curry successfully fulfilled his promise in the cynicism of the world, and led the Warriors to the championship with a performance that was quite explosive even if you look at the long history of the NBA......

Otherwise, God knows where Curry's career will fall in the future when he retires because of this outrageous Finals MVP selection?

In this life, Curry is lucky.

Because after being elected MVP of the NBA Finals for the second time in his career, in the minds of many people, he has become the face of the NBA for the next decade.

At the Spectrum Center, when he took the stage to receive the FMVP trophy and deliver his acceptance speech, Curry did not take credit for his award, but humbly attributed his award to the team.

And then, as Curry personally won the first championship in team history for the Hornets, the atmosphere of the entire arena and the city of Charlotte also reached a climax in an instant.

Under the arrangement of Boss Joe, all the members of the Hornets after winning the championship participated in the unspeakable celebration party that night.

At the party, Wang Shuo officially proposed his retirement plan to Jordan.

"What? Do you want Taryn to take over your class in the future? With a glass of champagne in his hand, Jordan looked at Wang Shuo with a stunned expression and asked.

"Taryn just doesn't look very smart.

His emotional intelligence dictates that only he can continue to lead this Hornets to the top after I retire. Wang Shuo explained to Jordan.

Seeing this, Jordan, who knew that Wang Shuo had made up his mind, sighed and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you anyway."

As I said, it's up to you to decide everything about this Wasp. ”

Wang Shuo plans to let Coach Lu take over the Hornets' regular season game arrangement after the start of next season, and wait until the playoffs to lead the team himself.

In this regard, when he learned of Wang Shuo's arrangement, although Director Lu looked incredulous......

But the unstoppable smile on the corner of his mouth had already revealed his true thoughts.

At this moment, no one knows better than Coach Lu what the experience of next season, known as "Prince Prison Country", means to him personally.

And four days later......

At Charlotte's championship parade, Wang Shuo also officially announced that he will start the vacation mode in the regular season of the new season, and his plans to move from the front of the stage to the background.

In the community, most people were not surprised by Wang Shuo's plan.

Because at the moment, he is in the age of a manager......

But long before starting the Hornets' coaching career, Wang Shuo had already revealed that his coaching career had entered the countdown.

In the eyes of the fans, especially in the eyes of the Hornets......

The only thing they can't understand at the moment is ......

After Wang Shuo almost revealed Tyronn Lu's status as the "crown prince", how could Lu guide He De become his successor to the "God of Coaches"?

Wang Shuo knew that neither the current Director Lu's qualifications nor the impression he had left in the past were enough for him to take over his class in a short period of time.

Therefore, in the final meeting of the Hornets after the championship parade, Wang Shuo also left a few core members of the team alone, and said to them: "I know, there must be some of you who can't understand my arrangement."

But I'll be right first, if I know someone who doesn't obey Tarron's game set-up in the new season......

Even if you're Michael Jordan, I'll send you away mercilessly. ”

In fact, the reason why Wang Shuo plans to take a vacation in the new season and come back to the playoffs......

It was so that Coach Lu could build his personal prestige by leading the team to a convincing record before taking over his shift.

At the meeting, looking at Wang Shuo's firm gaze, under the premise that the future situation of the Hornets is very good, core players such as Curry, Leonard, and Paul immediately stated that they will definitely support the work of Coach Lu in the new season.

As a human spirit, Garnett visited Director Lu with a fruit basket as early as the day before the meeting.

"Tarron, in the new season, you can feel free to be bold and bold in your coaching talents.

The only thing I have to tell you is that we're going to have a very talented young interior player join the team next season.

I hope you'll be able to devise more tactics for him to help him level up. After this internal meeting, looking at Coach Lu, Wang Shuo said.

Hearing this, Director Lu, who only felt that "father's love is like a mountain" at this moment, nodded and smiled: "Wang, I will definitely not live up to your expectations." ”

At this moment, the extremely talented young interior player Wang Shuo is naturally Nikola Jokic, who has been scouted by the Hornets for two years.

Historically, Jokic was drafted by the Nuggets in the second round of the 2014 draft and had to wait until the 15/16 season to join the NBA.

But in order to allow Jokic to land in the NBA in the 14/15 season, Wang Shuo sent someone to buy Jokic's parent club in Serbia as early as last year.

Anyway, in this life, Wang Shuo's money is too much to be used......

So, he doesn't mind letting the Serbs feel what it means to be "money power".

……

On June 28, the Hornets' championship fever has not subsided, and the annual NBA draft kicked off at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

This year, the Suns, who were selected again for the first round without any "shady scenes", selected Andrew Wiggins from Canada with the first pick in the first round.

The Bucks and Warriors, who won the No. 1 pick and the Warriors, selected Jabari Parker and ...... respectively

Joel - soft and cute - Embiid.

Immediately after, the Raptors traded Aaron Gordon with the Hornets with the fourth pick in the first round.

Knowing that he would not be able to keep Butler in the future, Wang Shuo traded Jimmy Butler and a future second-round pick from the team for Gordon, whom he had been thinking about.

This deal, if you look at it from the perspective of the future, the Hornets will definitely lose money.

But at this moment......

Regardless of whether Butler can lead the Raptors to a turnaround in the future, the Hornets will have to pay a high price if they want to acquire Aaron Gordon in 2014, the big year of the draft.

With veteran Battier retiring and Kirilenko planning to return to Europe after winning a championship, the Hornets are in desperate need of a player who can swing around in the No. 3 or No. 4 positions to fill the roster.

Because Wang Shuo thought about it in his heart, he found that there is indeed no player on the market who is more suitable for this Hornets than Gordon.

Therefore, he did not hesitate to request a trade from the Raptors, who held the fourth pick in the first round this year.

In Wang Shuo's previous life, Gordon, who was 203 cm tall, had a strong physical fitness, and his running and bounce during his election exceeded 90 cm, and the vertical bounce was close to 110 cm, and the maximum touch height reached 372 cm.

And by the time he ran for the election, Gordon already had the strength of the NBA's No. 3 and No. 4 players.

In addition, Jokic and Gordon are still a pair of Finals tested, in his memory.

However, compared to Gordon's visible talent for dynamics......

In fact, what Wang Shuo really values is Gordon's ball quotient that can complete two air cuts per game on that Nuggets team in the future, as well as its cost performance after growing up.

Before Wang Shuo crossed over, Gordon, who won the league with the Nuggets, only needed a contract of about 90 million for 4 years to get it......

You must know that in the future era when it often starts at $30 million, Gordon's contract can only be described as a super value in Wang Shuo's opinion.

Previously, when he sent scouts to inspect Gordon, Wang Shuo found out that this is a young player who knows exactly what he wants.

Wang Shuo knows very well that Gordon's personality determines that even after he grows up in the future, he will not have a conflict with the core players in the Hornets over status and ball possession.

Therefore, even if the Hornets seem to lose money in this deal, it will not hurt in Wang Shuo's eyes.

And......

In terms of Wang Shuo's eyes, which have always been known for being vicious......

If it weren't for his willingness to send Jimmy Butler in this deal, the world's most recognized ...... A player with the potential to be a star striker.

No one really thinks that the Raptors will accept this deal, right?

Because under the new collective bargaining agreement, the Raptors can have at least five years of access to Butler in the future, so at this year's draft, the Raptors, who intend to build a team around Butler, will agree to make this deal with the Hornets.

And at the draft meeting, when he learned that he was traded to the Hornets......

Gordon's face was also full of excitement.

As the scouting report says, as an ambitious young player, Gordon knows exactly what it means for him to be traded to the Hornets.

Especially after receiving a call from Wang Shuo in person, Gordon couldn't wait to take a plane to meet Wang Shuo, the legendary coach, immediately.

"This summer, I want you to focus your training on shooting and running off the ball.

I don't need you to practice three-point shooting in every position, but at least in the two corners, I want you to make sure you can shoot when you catch the ball. ”

Compared with the future Aaron Gordon, Gordon at this moment is still a piece of jade that needs time to carve.

And then, after the high-quality first-round picks in the 14th edition took the stage one by one, the Hornets also used their 30th pick in this year's first round to select Nikola Jokic from Serbia.

In Wang Shuo's mind, the best organizational center in the NBA in the future.

The moment the Hornets drafted Jokic......

Obviously, no matter how good Wang Shuo's vision is, the NBA at this moment has not yet realized what this piece of human pork belly essence from the Balkans will bring to the future NBA......

Truth be told, in terms of the current lineup of the Hornets......

In Wang Shuo's view, he has personally ended the suspense of the NBA for at least fifteen years at this moment.

Jokic, Gordon, Leonard, Klay, Curry.

Three-dimensional MVP-level master C.

Two top vice-Cs with both functionality and compatibility in their respective positions.

In Wang Shuo's view, if it weren't for the current situation, he would have gradually lost interest in the NBA......

So what to say, he has to lead this Hornets to five, six, seven or eight championships before retiring.

Admittedly, in Wang Shuo's previous life, Jokic and Curry's defensive performance at their respective positions was not ideal......

But in terms of the offensive ability of this Hornets......

In Wang Shuo's opinion, what defense do they need?

If you don't understand, just ask, how many points do you have to score in front of such a wasp in front of them to be qualified to fight them at critical moments?

And, even if it's more defensive, this Hornets aren't weak at all.

Because Leonard and Klay before the big injury were both top defensive wings in their respective positions.

In addition, Gordon has always been known for his hard work on the defensive end......

Therefore, in Wang Shuo's view, this is simply a team that theoretically has no weaknesses at all!

In this life, Coach Lu will definitely be the target of assassination by the head coaches of various NBA teams in the future.

Because Director Lu didn't know at all......

His "father" Wang Shuo, what kind of team did he hand over to him!

In the second round of the draft, after the first-round trade to Gordon's selection of Jokic, Wang Shuo did not do anything more.

Because with the entry of Gordon and Mr. Joo into the team, the Hornets are already overcrowded in various positions in the new season, so even if there are still many treasure players in the second round of 14, Wang Shuo does not want to waste excess team resources.

On July 1, after the free agent market officially opened, Wang Shuo left the last spot of the Hornets new season to Celtics veteran Pierce.

In his life, Pierce, who failed to console Auerbach with a championship in Boston, knew that his career was coming to an end.

Coupled with the fact that the Celtics are ready to rebuild from next season, Pierce has made up his mind to join the Hornets.

On the 1st, when signing with the Hornets, Pierce was asked the most about his cynicism about Garnett's choice to leave the Celtics.

At that moment, Pierce looked a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Wang Shuo gave Pierce a round in time and said, "Who hasn't been young and ignorant?

You may not know it, but Gary Payton also told me back then that he would not join the Knicks if he was killed. ”

At the press conference, after Wang Shuo said the above words, the laughter of reporters immediately filled the entire venue.

Pierce joins the team and the 15-man squad for the Hornets for the 14/15 season is officially confirmed.

Centers: Jefferson, Jokic, Speights.

Power forwards: Garnett, Gordon, Barnes.

Small forwards: Kawhi Leonard, Pierce, Prince.

Shooting guards: Klay, Middleton, Jones.

Point guards: Curry, Paul, Mills.

Although Wang Shuo will take a vacation to the playoffs in the new season, before the official start of the vacation, Wang Shuo still assigned training tasks to the young players in the team one by one.

Among them, Jokic, who is particularly cared for by Wang Shuo, has to complete the weight loss before the start of the new season.

On the day of signing the contract with Jokic, looking at Jokic's belly full of fat, Wang Shuo suddenly started to doubt his life.

Because you dare to believe it......

This lump of pork belly......

Will he become the MVP of the NBA in the future?

In Wang's memory, Jokic really had to thank him for meeting Mike Malone, who has always been known for his rigorous training.

Because if it weren't for Malone urging him to lose weight every day......

Jokic is likely to go all the way to the dark on the road to gaining weight.

Of course, then again......

Even so strict Marlon......

Wasn't he also mercilessly assassinated by His Majesty the Emperor in the early stages of his coaching career?

It turns out that in the NBA, no matter how good the advice......

You have to accept it for the players themselves to help you make a career.

In this life, with Grover, a top trainer, Wang Shuo is not worried that Jokic will not be able to control his weight in the future.

In Wang Shuo's opinion, the only thing he needs to worry about is the way Coach Lu uses Teacher Yue.

After all......

Even with Milicic and Gasol Jr. in front of him, Jokic, a center who can dribble and organize offense from the backcourt, is a little ahead of his time.

However, Wang Shuo's worries at the moment were obviously unnecessary.

Because Coach Lu, who has always been learning from him in this life, is in terms of tactical reserves and understanding of basketball......

It's no longer the Tyronn Lue he remembers.

In the summer, after arranging the training plan for the young players, Wang Shuo officially started his vacation.

According to the plan, Wang Shuo plans to go to the UK to watch a few Manchester United games during his vacation.

In the new season, after Alex Ferguson officially announced his retirement, Pep Guardiola will become the new manager of Manchester United at his invitation.

In this life, because Wang Shuo's investment in Manchester United is no less than that of the West Asian oil dads, and Ferguson guarantees that Manchester United management will trust Guardio......la 100%;

So despite fearing that he would remain in the shadow of Alex Ferguson during his coaching career at Manchester United, Pep Guardiola took up the reins of Manchester United under Ferguson's persuasion.

And when it was learned that Pep Guardiola would be the new manager of Manchester United......

Not to mention Wang Shuo's impression of Guardiola, just about Guardiola's coaching of Manchester United, Wang Shuo can only be described as outrageous.

What's even more outrageous is that Wang Shuo noticed that Manchester United's squad for the new season includes both Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, Sergio Aguero, Robin van Persie, and David Silva......

Wang Shuo never expected that in this life, Ferguson had quietly created a universe team that was no less than the emperor Saren in his memory.

One of the most successful teams in the Premier League over the past few years, Ferguson not only led the team to five Premier League titles in the six years since Ronaldo's move to Real Madrid, but also won another Champions League title for Manchester United before retiring.

With Wang Shuo's financial backing, although the Financial Fair Play Act has been officially introduced in European football at this moment, Ferguson still left his successor Pep Guardiola an unimaginable fortune.

Also, compared to when Manchester United was acquired......

In recent years, thanks to the excellent marketing of the American team, Manchester United's market value has also reached a staggering $5 billion.

So don't look at Wang Shuo's investment in Manchester United every year......

In the end, Wang Shuo, the behind-the-scenes boss of Manchester United, has made a lot of money because of this.

I have to say that the Internet celebrity team is the Internet celebrity team......

Other Premier League teams can't make headlines even if they are tired and tired, and Manchester United hangs on it almost every day.

And at the same time that Wang Shuo officially started his vacation......

In the NBA, the Celtics also made a trade with the Suns.

Matt Ishbia, the new owner who took over the Suns after the Sarver explosion, is too eager to revive a team that once flourished in the first decade of the 21st century......

So after learning that the Celtics were willing to trade James......

The new management of the Sun still made a decision that went against the "ancestors".

On the premise that the Suns' salary space can eat James's salary, the Suns sent the "alphabet brother" who was favored by Wang Shuo but did not perform well in his rookie season to Boston, and got the "King" from Boston who has been disappointed and never satisfied.

With this deal, the Suns certainly don't lose money.

Because no matter how bad James is in the NBA at the moment, you can't deny that his instant combat power is far stronger than the "alphabet brother" who needs at least two years to level up.

And in terms of James's historic-level "durability", it will not be difficult for him to maintain his form for another ten years.

It was after getting James through a trade......

In Wang Shuo's view, if the sun wants to rise in a real sense, it must be traded.

Sure enough.

In late July, after some friendly negotiations with the New Orleans Pelicans, the Suns sent Wiggins, who they had just drafted, and Beal, one of the team's golden duos last season, to New Orleans.

and acquired All-Star interior Anthony Davis from New Orleans and Eric Gordon, who was seen as a salary burden by the Pelicans.

Originally, when he learned about the deal, Wang Shuo didn't quite understand why the Pelicans would trade Davis, who had just led them back to the playoffs, to Phoenix......

But after reading the news reports in the media, Wang Shuo reacted.

Obviously, what led the Pelicans to trade Davis......

The Lord still has to rely on him.

Because before the start of the draft, Wang Shuo politely praised Wiggins in an interview and said that he has the potential to surpass Kobe Bryant in the future......

So the Pelicans, who regretted rubbing shoulders with Kobe Bryant back then, set their sights on the top pick who the Suns had just selected this summer.

It is different from the Sun management, which betrayed the ancestor once, so why betray the ancestor again......

As we all know, because of David West's deal, the Pelicans' management has been a laughing stock for a long time, so in the past two years, the Pelicans management has been very concerned about the young players that Wang Shuo has fancied......

In addition, in the NBA, it is a well-established fact that outside stars sell tickets better than inside stars......

Therefore, on the premise that the Suns are willing to send Wiggins and Beal, and are willing to eat Gordon's one-year, $15 million contract......

Pelican management made the decision without hesitation.

In this life, it feels like the fate of Davis and Wiggins will be rewritten because of this deal, Wang Shuo does not comment on who is more profitable in this deal, the Suns or the Pelicans.

But one thing Wang Shuo is sure of is that the Suns are indeed going to rise in the new season.

At this moment, the Suns' lineup includes both a young version of AD who can take the blame, and Irving, a singles god who can make up for James' lack of hard solving ability......

In Wang Shuo's view, in terms of the current pattern of the West, the Suns can only be described as easy to enter the playoffs in the new season.

And the Celtics, who previously obtained "Brother Alphabet" through trading, did not lose in the eyes of Wang Shuo......

Because as long as the Celts can give the "alphabet brother" enough resources, as the physical talent of the "alphabet brother" is gradually excavated, it is only a matter of time before this ancient beast leads the Celts to rise again.

As for the Pelicans......

If this life were New Orleans, Wiggins would have had a better environment to grow up in the early stages of his career......

Then the combination of him and Bill, you really can't say no.

In Wang Shuo's previous life, Wiggins, who had excellent dynamic and static talent, played a DPOY-level defensive performance in the season when he followed Curry to win the championship.

In fact, if Wiggins can be better coached early in his career, he's a top-tier small forward with offensive and defensive potential.

In short, after these trades, in Wang Shuo's eyes, the Celtics, Suns, and Pelicans all have a bright future.

And with the Lakers signing Randle and LaVine, whom they had previously hoarded with their 2014 first-round picks......

In Wang Shuo's view, as long as Vogel can find the right way to open this Lakers team through last season's loss last season, the Hornets are bound to face a strong challenge in the coming year.

……

Soon, just as Wang Shuo was enjoying his tenure as owner in Manchester, the 14/15 NBA regular season kicked off.

This season, the league has quietly begun a reshuffle.

Under Lu's leadership, the Hornets finished the regular season with a 65-17 record and finished first in the NBA regular season for two consecutive years.

Curry averaged 27.8 points, 6.1 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game for the Hornets in the regular season, shooting 50.8 percent from the field, 47.4 percent from three-point range, and 92.8 percent from the free throw line, making his career entry into the "180 Club" for the first time in his career.

As the number one favorite for MVP in the NBA regular season this season, Curry, who scored a total of 412 three-pointers in the regular season, not only set a new NBA single-season three-point shooting record, but also played a more efficient performance on the court as the strength of his teammates improved.

During the Star Weekend, Leonard, who was named an All-Star along with Paul off the bench, is averaging 21.8 points, 7.0 rebounds plus 3.0 assists, 2.1 steals and 1.4 blocks per game this season.

This season, Leonard is also the top favorite to win the Defensive Player of the Year.

In the regular season, in the confrontation with many star forwards, Leonard showed his increasingly refined defensive skills.

Paul, who was elected the assist king with an average of 17.1 assists per game, broke the NBA single-season assist average record held by himself this season.

In addition, Klay, who just reached an early contract extension agreement with the team in the summer, has also played well this season.

While it is unlikely that there will be as many shots as in history, Klay averaged just 16.4 points per game in the regular season.

But this season, Klay set a new NBA single-game three-point shooting record with 16 three-pointers in a single game against the Bulls.

In the regular season, Jokic, who received special attention from Coach Lue, averaged 10.1 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game in his rookie season.

Under Jefferson's tutelage, Jokic has shown the potential to become a top-tier playmaker in his rookie season.

In contrast, Gordon's rookie season was quite struggling.

Because as talented as Gordon is in the off-ball position, he still needs time to evolve.

East, after the playoffs, this year's Eastern Conference playoffs first round matchups are as follows:

Hornets (1) vs. Hawks (8), Cavaliers (2) vs. Wizards (7), Heat (3) vs. Knicks (6), 76ers (4) vs. Pacers (5).

As for the West, after the Suns disrupted the situation in the West this year as Wang Shuo expected, the first round of this year's Western Conference playoffs is as follows:

Lakers (1) vs. Pelicans (8), Thunder (2) vs. Mavericks (7), Suns (3) vs. Grizzlies (6), Spurs (4) vs. Trail Blazers (5).

This season, after coming to the West, which is much weaker in overall strength than the East, James can be described as proud.

In the regular season, he averaged 30.8 points, 8.1 rebounds and 9.0 assists per game for the Suns.

In addition, Davis and Irving are also worthy of being players who have proven themselves when working with James in Wang Shuo's memory.

With these two young players in play, James has consistently topped the regular season MVP rankings this season, behind Curry and Durant.

Seeing this, one might say......

Compared to excel, James is obviously stronger than Curry, why can Curry always be ranked first, but he can only be third?

The answer, of course, is that the Hornets and Suns face different challenges in the East and West, and that under Mark, the NBA judges know exactly who the future of the league is.

And it is worth mentioning......

I don't know if the previous off-court psychological counseling played a role, this season, in Phoenix......

In the face of criticism from the outside world, James's mentality is really a lot calmer.

On April 24, the NBA's Eastern and Western playoffs officially began.

Under the leadership of Wang Shuo, who ended his vacation, the Hornets unsurprisingly swept the Hawks with a score of 4-0 and defeated the Heat 4-1 in the next Eastern Conference semifinals.

As the so-called feng shui takes turns, there are nine times out of ten that life is unsatisfactory......

This season, as James's small days in the West are nourishing, Wade and Anthony, who have once again gone home to fish together in the playoffs, have ushered in their darkest moment.

In the first round of this year's playoffs, facing Yao Ming and Duncan, who were already discussing retirement plans, it took the Heat a full seven games to get through the risk......

And in the Eastern Conference semifinals, even if Wade and Anthony used their might, they couldn't shake the Hornets in the slightest.

What does it mean, you ask, to despair?

At this very moment, for Wade and Anthony, they are experiencing despair.

Before the start of the division finals, the NBA officially announced the winners of this year's regular season awards.

The regular season MVP was won by Curry.

This is the first time in Curry's career that he has been elected as the NBA's regular season MVP.

The Defensive Player of the Year was defended by his teammate Leonard.

As for the best coach......

Rick Carlisle, who led the Suns to a turnaround in the regular season this year, deservedly received the award.

Although affected by someone's presence......

Carlisle's tactics in the regular season were noticeably less varied than they were when he coached the Pistons and Mavericks.

But in someone's absence, the young Suns showed off the flashy offense of a top-tier run-and-gun team under Carlisle.

In addition, this year's Most Improved Player, Rookie of the Year and Sixth Man of the Year went to Jimmy Butler, Andrew Wiggins and Eric Gordon, respectively.

After being traded to the Raptors by the Hornets, Butler averaged 22.5 points, 6.8 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game for the Raptors this season, and has become recognized as the new "Dragon King" by the world.

The only fly in the ointment is that with Butler alone, the Raptors clearly have an extremely long way to go if they want to return to the playoffs in the highly competitive East.

Wiggins, who was traded to the Pelicans as the main bargaining chip for the Suns to trade Davis, averaged 20.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game in his rookie season.

In the West, which is much weaker, this season, Wiggins, who entered the playoffs with the Pelicans, is better than Wang Shuo's memory of soaking wolfberries in a thermos cup all day long during the Timberwolves period, both in terms of heart and personal mental outlook.

As for James' main dump in the Suns......

Ahh

Eric Gordon showed his outstanding ability to catch the pot on this Suns.

Anyway, it doesn't matter how James passes, as long as James dares to pass, then Gordon dares to throw!

In the regular season, Gordon averaged 10.1 three-pointers per game while shooting 37.2 percent from the field, making him the Suns' main source of bench scoring.

In addition, the NBA Team of the Year and Defensive Team of the 14/15 season were selected as follows:

All-team team: Gasol Jr., Griffin, Durant, Curry, Harden.

All-Match Second Team: Davis, James, Leonard, Paul, Westbrook.

The best team three: Pau Gasol, Lefou, Anthony, Rose, Owen.

All-Defensive First Team: Jr., Draymond Green, Leonard, Butler, Westbrook.

All-Defensive Second Team: Davis, George, Danny Green, Tony Allen, Klay.

This season, when the league selects the best team, it is clearly interested in promoting newcomers.

It's just that......

After selecting two young players, Davis and Irving, to the All-Round Team......

Isn't that embarrassing the Jammys who chant all day long that the Suns are a single-core team led by James?

But no matter what, James did usher in a wave of wind reviews this year.

Because with the Suns unexpectedly eliminated the Thunder with a score of 4-3 in the Western Conference semifinals with the Thunder, James, who led the team to the division finals for the first time in his career, was in a good place for a while.

At this moment, James hated why he fled to the east instead of choosing to stay in the west!

In James' opinion, if he hadn't delayed those years with the Celtics......

Maybe he's a noble championship player by now.

Wang Shuo, who led the Hornets early in the morning to lock up a spot in the Eastern Conference finals, was also shocked when he learned that the Suns had reached the Western Conference finals.

However, after reading the report of the division finals between the Sun and the Thunder, Wang Shuo was immediately relieved.

Due to the loss of Rose and Durant in the two games of G3 and G6 respectively, the Thunder was eliminated by the Suns in this year's playoff journey, in Wang Shuo's view, more because of bad luck.

In addition, in front of the old and spicy Carlisle, Stevens, who was too targeted at James in this round of the division finals, also paid a heavy price for it.

Perhaps because he has been haunted by the fact that he was stabbed by James before, Stevens has been trying all kinds of ways to prevent James from scoring in this series with the Suns.

And as it turns out, Stevens and the Thunder did.

But......

The Suns, who were too aimed at James, were instead disturbed by the young inside-outside combination of Irving and Davis in the game.

In the G6 game, when Durant went off the court due to injury, all Thunder fans could feel the frustration of this "god of frustration" even through the screen.

Wang Shuo doesn't know if Durant will choose to join the Suns next season because he hasn't played the Suns in this life......

But if Durant really chooses to do that......

In Wang Shuo's view, if Durant and James can't win the championship in this life, I'm afraid that they will fall into the abyss together in the future.

After all, as Wang Shuo's best partner in the eyes of James in his previous life, if Durant and James, plus Irving and Davis, could not save James's unsatisfactory fate in this life......

So what reason will James have in the future to explain?

Moreover, in terms of the league pattern in this life, in Wang Shuo's view, James and Durant really have a high probability of falling to the bottom together.

After the selection of awards, on May 20, the regional finals of the Eastern and Western Divisions officially began.

The Hornets eventually eliminated the Cavaliers with a score of 4-2 and entered the Finals for the second year in a row.

In this series with the Cavaliers, Mike Malone's desperate three-point strategy successfully allowed the Cavaliers to win two consecutive games in G3 and G4 with the advantage of home court.

But after Wang Shuo kindly reminded the referees not to be too outrageous, the subsequent g5 and g6, the Hornets did not give the knights any more chances.

"In two games, we made 79 fewer free throws than the Cavaliers......

In the regular season, the Hornets made few free throws, and you say it was because we like to shoot threes.

But why, with our 15 fewer three-point shots than the Cavaliers in those two games, would we be so far behind in the free throw line? ”

In the face of Wang Shuo's questioning, the sensible league president Mark issued a statement shortly afterwards and severely reprimanded the referees for their inconsistent decisions at home and away.

"In the future, we will arrange for the referees to do more training to improve their professionalism in juling."

In the east, the Hornets made it through.

In the West, the Lakers also eliminated the Suns with a score of 4-2 after six games of fierce battles with the Suns.

In the Western Conference Finals, Vogel, who learned the lessons of the Thunder, focused the Lakers' main defensive resources on Davis and Irving in this round of the division finals against the Suns.

As for James?

Alas......

Isn't it "Thanos Zhan"?

If you don't understand, just ask, what is the ending of the "Thanos Zhan" in the 17/18 season in Wang Shuo's memory?

Oh, and was swept in the finals?

That's fine!

Vogel is well aware that James' physical strength is simply not enough to sustain him in the game all the time.

And for the Lakers with Gasol Jr. and Serge Ibaka......

They are not afraid of James being abrupt at all.

On the contrary, it is Davis, who is very mobile, and the European god who will press the button of "who draws the sword and is God, only Kyrie Irving" if he disagrees, is the problem of the Lakers in this round of the division finals.

It has to be said that compared to last season, Vogel has indeed made great strides in all aspects.

The only fly in the ointment is that in the finals, in the face of his former mentor Wang Shuo, Vogel finally led the Lakers to defeat with a score of 2-4.

In this year's finals, Wang Shuo fully demonstrated his courage in employing people.

In the game, he directly put Curry, the MVP of the regular season, on the bench, not only successfully disrupted the Lakers' tactical arrangement in the Finals......

In addition, Curry, who traveled off-peak, also lived up to expectations and was elected as the NBA's Finals MVP for two consecutive years as the team's sixth man.

In this year's Finals, Curry averaged 26.5 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game for the Hornets, shooting more than 50% from the field and 45% from three-point range.

In fact, if it weren't for the referee blatantly helping the Lakers in G2 and G4, the Hornets might even sweep the championship with a score of 4-0 in this round of the finals.

Because Curry is the sixth man, the Hornets' main force can always suppress the Lakers......

Vogel discovers ......

The horror of this wasp has exceeded the imagination of the world!

And after leading the Hornets to the top of the league for two consecutive years, Wang Shuo suddenly felt that he had completely lost interest in the NBA.

Therefore, at the press conference after winning the championship, Wang Shuo also officially confirmed to the outside world that he will retire at the end of next season.

"In the new season, the regular season Hornets will still be led by Tyronn.

I know you can't understand my feelings.

But let's be honest, always winning......

I've long been numb to this.

I think it's time for me to leave the future to the young people! ”
