Since Jerry West in 1969, the NBA's second loser, FMVP, was born.

Although Lin Fei was not really willing to accept this award, in the face of the affirmation of the judges and the applause of many star fans in the front row of the courtside,

Even the Timberwolves players who were still standing on the podium applauded Lin Fei.

In the face of enthusiasm, Lin Fei could only walk to the center of the court, took the trophy of the MVP of the finals from the hands of Bill Russell, and greeted the applause and cheers from the scene.

Among the tens of thousands of fans inside and outside the stadium of the Target Center, many of them sincerely think that Lin Fei deserves the glory of this award.

Even if the Knicks are not the champions, Lin Fei is still the most valuable player in this round of the finals.

The Knicks players also stood on the sidelines, happy that Lin Fei could win this award, which is definitely a well-deserved honor.

Marbury, Eddie Curry and Zach Randolph, who returned to the sidelines from the locker room, were also full of guilt, feeling that their performance could not match the efforts of the boss Lin Fei.

If Marbury can be less impulsive, if Eddie Curry can grab one or two more rebounds per game, if Zach Randolph can suppress Artest on both ends of the floor,

Then standing on the championship podium at this time is likely to be the New York Knicks.

When Lin Fei lifted the MVP trophy of the finals, Garnett and Si Zebiak, two old teammates, also took the initiative to walk up, hugged Lin Fei with a smile, and congratulated each other.

The NBA produces a championship and a Finals MVP every year, but this year, Lin Fei beat all the players of the winning team as a loser and was finally elected FMVP.

This only glory in history naturally raises the gold content of this FMVP to a commanding height.

With an average of 49 points, 13 assists and 4 steals per game, it has undoubtedly become the craziest single-round Finals individual performance in NBA Finals history, beating Michael Jordan and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

In front of the commentary table on the sidelines, Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith were still trying to come up with the most precise definition of Lin Fei's FMVP for the losing side.

"Lin came out of nowhere in the '04 Western Conference Finals and eventually helped the Timberwolves win the first championship trophy in team history, but the FMVP in the Finals was awarded to Kevin Garnett!"

"There is no problem with the issuance of that FMVP, Kevin is indeed the most important player on both ends of the Timberwolves offensive and defensive ends in the Finals, but Lin's stunner and many key three-pointers are also indispensable conditions for the Timberwolves to win the championship!"

"The original grievances and bonds, I think finally got a perfect continuation at this year's Finals, Kevin Garnett proved that without Lin, he can also lead the Timberwolves to win the championship!"

"And Lin also faced his old master, the Timberwolves, and recaptured the Finals MVP that originally belonged to him in his familiar target center arena!"

Charles Barkley's words will inevitably make Kevin Garnett a little unhappy, but he is such a guy who dares to speak and do.

When David Stern personally handed the microphone to Lin Fei and asked him with a smile what he thought of the losing party's FMVP, Lin Fei's answer was unexpected.

"It's a pity that we lost the finals in the end, and we also missed the championship, no matter how brilliant the data is, it seems meaningless, and this Finals MVP in my hands will be more of an incentive for me!"

"Congratulations to the Timberwolves, they deserve a championship, and my teammates and I will always remember this defeat, and the Knicks will be even stronger in the new season!"

In the applause and cheers, many Timberwolves fans in the audience were also amazed that Lin Fei was able to beat Kevin Garnett to win the Finals MVP.

"There are a total of 11 votes, Lin actually got 9 votes, and Kevin only had 2 votes, isn't this a bit exaggerated?"

"There will be championships every year, but Lin's personal supernatural performance in the finals, I'm afraid it won't happen for the second time in many years!"

"Compared with Jerry West's losing FMVP, this year's Lin is obviously crazier, and his average of points per game is close to 50, which is really perverted!"

"71 points, 63 points, 58 points, and on the single-game individual score list of the finals, Lin alone has occupied the top three!"

"Haha, how perverted Lin's three-point shot is, how much he pulls his hips in rebounds, if he can't grab the rebounds, I don't know how thrilling the final result is!"

"Why does the Timberwolves feel a little hot enough to win the championship this year? I feel that Lin, the losing party, FMVP, has stolen the limelight! ”

"The championship is the championship after all, and the Timberwolves' championship this year is definitely not low, but Lin's second loser's FMVP gimmick is more sufficient!"

"Now I feel shocked, Lin's last whistle super far three points actually scored again, fortunately it was not a lore!"

"We're both Timberwolves fans and Lim's fans, isn't that the best result? The Timberwolves won the championship, Lin won the FMVP, haha! ”

"What Michael Jordan said in an interview before the Finals is simply the truth, the Timberwolves are the best team, and Lin is the best star!"

"Kevin finally won two championships, but there is only one MVP and FMVP, and in this regard, he is still a big cut behind Tim Duncan!"

"Although Lin didn't win the championship this year, he is already a three-time champion in a row, and now a regular season MVP plus two finals MVPs, 3+1+2 big honors, even better than the wolf king!"

"The Knicks can play this lineup to this point, what is there to question Lin's ability to lead the team?"

Madison Square Garden, New York.

More than 30,000 Knicks fans gathered in the square were also in a mixed mood at this time.

Although the Knicks missed the championship in front of them, Lin Fei created another great miracle in the NBA Finals, the second loser in history FMVP, which is of great significance and shocks the world.

Lin Fei played the ultimate personal heroism in this round of the finals, which is far more significant for the NBA's greater influence and in-depth dissemination around the world than the Timberwolves' championship.

"This round of the finals is definitely the most exciting round of the finals I have ever seen, there is no one!"

"What if the Knicks didn't win the championship this year? As long as Lin is here, will the Knicks' third championship be far away? Let's make a comeback next season! ”

"Although the Knicks lost, Lin didn't lose, and the King of New York didn't lose!"

"The Knicks have to be traded in the offseason, we can't waste Lin's career peak, Stephen Marbury, Eddie Curry and Zach Randolph are not reliable, if I want to say, I should trade all three of them!"

On the side of the Celestial Empire, hundreds of millions of fans waiting on TV and online sports platforms are also in mixed feelings at this time.

The Knicks missed the championship at the last moment, and to be honest, at the end of the game, every Knicks and Lin Fei fans will feel helpless and sad.

But they also respect the sports competition itself, and respect every player on the two teams on the court, including Lin Fei.

For some fans, perhaps who will win the championship in the end is what they are most concerned about.

But for other fans, what they enjoy more is the process of the game itself, the classic moments that make people remember and blood boiling.

Among these classic moments, the one that appears most frequently is undoubtedly the figure that belongs to Lin Fei.

"Phineas YYDS, the Timberwolves won the championship, but Phineas won the admiration of more fans around the world!"

"Lin Fei's career has only played for four seasons, and there is still a chance to win the championship in the future, but this loser's FMVP cocoa is easy to get, and I just happened to get one this year, I think it's quite perfect!"

"Randolph really disappointed me, averaging close to 20 points per game in the regular season, but in the playoffs he was getting more and more stretched, was this being beaten stupid by Artay? Let's trade it out! ”

"I checked the personal performance and data of Jerry West's 69 win of the losing FMVP, although it is very good, but compared to Lin Feilai in this round of the finals, it is still a lot worse!"

"The single-round performance of the finals that Jordan is most proud of in his career, that is, the Bulls beat the Sun in 93, but compared with Phineas, the gap is not ordinarily big!"

"It's really a regrettable legend, Lin Fei's personal average rebounds per game in this round of the finals is still only 1.3, as a scoring guard with a height of 197, Feige's rebounds should really work hard to strengthen it!"

"To be honest, I really want to see Lin Fei get a triple double, after all, he has already cut too many high scores, but I don't know if I have to wait until the Year of the Monkey!"

On the hot search lists of Sina and Baidu.com, Lin Fei won the MVP of the second loser finals in NBA history with an average of 49+13+4 per game, and quickly climbed to the first place.

The Timberwolves' enthusiasm for winning the championship was completely suppressed.

After Lin Fei led two teams to win the championship for three consecutive years, the fourth consecutive championship finally failed to achieve his wish.

However, the anti-sky performance in the finals, as well as the FMVP of the losing side, seem to have made Lin Fei's career and overall honor more resistant and golden.

With the Finals over, the 2006-7 NBA season has officially come to an end.

As the saying goes, some people are happy and some people are worried, the Timberwolves who won the championship and Lin Fei, who won the second loser FMVP in history, are undoubtedly the biggest winners of this season.

Lin Fei's performance in the 06-07 season can be said to have reached the highest peak of his career so far.

In addition to this finals FMVP, Lin Fei also won the regular season MVP, scoring champion, steal king, double team, All-Star all-time vote king and All-Star MVP.

At the same time, 2 70+ games in a single season, 5 60+ games, 12 kills and quasi-kills, and an epic 35.16 minutes miracle was staged in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

In the discussion of the 03 platinum generation, Lin Fei has now completely thrown off the champion LeBron James in terms of personal honor, historical status and influence.

In ESPN's latest reality show forum show, the strongest single-season performances in NBA history were re-discussed, and Lin Fei's current 06-07 season is naturally a topic that cannot be avoided.

Before Lin Fei, Jordan's 87-88 season (regular season MVP, scoring champion, best defensive player),

"Sky Hook" Abdul-Jabbar's 70-71 season (championship + regular season MVP + FMVP + scoring champion),

Oscar Robertson's '61-62 season (30.8 points, 12.5 rebounds, 11.4 assists, triple-doubles per game),

Wilt Chang's '61-62 season (50.4 points, 25.7 rebounds).

The single-season performances of these supergiants are bound to make it to the rankings.

But now Lin Fei's 06-07 season is quite a trend of killing the superstars in seconds, although Lin Fei also failed to lead the Knicks to win the championship in the end, but he has won almost all the personal honors except the championship.

What's more, the Knicks still jumped from the bottom of the East last season to the second place in the East, and the overall lineup has not changed much.

Therefore, in the discussion of several celebrities and experts, Lin Fei's 06-07 season has enough qualifications to compete for the strongest individual single-season performance in NBA history, and even has enough advantages to crush Jordan and Abdul-Jabbar and others.

At the end of this episode, Mike Brin said something that impressed many fans and media:

"Lin didn't win the championship in the 06-07 season, maybe it's the best arrangement of history and God, because if he wins the championship again, the NBA can directly announce the finale!"

The day after Lin Fei and the Knicks players returned to New York from Minneapolis,

The local Senate in New York also officially announced that in the latest referendum, 76% of New Yorkers want the death penalty system to be reinstated, and it was finally approved.

And Pope, the criminal who shot and killed many people in Madison Square Garden, also became the first prisoner to be shot in New York after the death penalty was reinstated.

Even if the Knicks didn't win the championship, in James Dolan's opinion, the team's 06-07 season was already fantastic and perfect, and the next few seasons are limitless.

At the same time, James Dolan also asked Isaiah Thomas to keep an eye on the free market this summer, and comprehensively solicited Lin Fei's personal opinion, hoping to bring effective reinforcements to the team.

At the end-of-season kick-off rally, James Dolan gave the players a total of $20 million in prize money, while taking the lead in waving his fist and shouting:

"In '08, the championship must be our Knicks!"

On the fourth day after the Finals, the Timberwolves' championship parade kicked off in Minneapolis.

At the same time, at Madison Square Garden in New York, the annual draft meeting was also held as scheduled.

The 2007 draft can be said to be another big year after '03, and Kevin Durant and Greg Oden are hailed as rare talents in a century.

Al Horford, Jeff Green, Mike Conley, Joakim Noah, Corey Brewer, Yi Jianlian and others also waited in the small green room in advance.

Very different from the original world, this year's No. 1 pick is in the hands of the Seattle SuperSonics, the list is in the hands of the Celtics, the Memphis Grizzlies hold the scout pick, and the Trail Blazers are the fourth pick......

History has changed dramatically as a result, as the SuperSonics chose Garnett with the second pick in the original world, but now they have the top pick, and they still choose to put the treasure in the hands of the more talented Auden the Great.

"In the 2007 NBA Draft, the SuperSonics selected the first pick in the first round: Greg Oden from Ohio State University!"

"In the 2007 NBA Draft, the Boston Celtics selected Kevin Durant from the University of Texas at Austin with the second pick in the first round!"

Oden and Durant walked out of the little green room one after another, wearing baseball caps with the SuperSonics and Celtics logos, respectively.

The young Adu posed for a photo with David Stern, but he would never have imagined that the Green Army had chosen him to complete an even crazier deal.

What would have happened if Oden hadn't been injured?

What if Durant teamed up with a superstar in his rookie season?

The wheels of history began to turn here. (End of chapter)
