[314] The only unanimous MVP in history, Curry Ross tries out the SuperSonics!
In the original world, Stephen Curry was originally a college student at Davidson College, played in the NCAA for three years, and only officially participated in the NBA draft in 2009, and was selected by the Golden State Warriors with the 7th pick in the first round.
But in this parallel world, it is precisely because of Lin Fei's birth that Curry was subjected to a huge impact from three-point shooting in high school, and his personal development direction in basketball was also established in advance.
It is precisely because of Lin Fei, the king idol of the small-ball era, that not only Curry's three-point shooting and tactical status have been valued, but also directly allowed him to enter Duke University as he wished in college.
Even though Coach K is a traditional NCAA coach, he has to admit that small ball is the future of the NBA and world basketball, and Lin Fei's influence on the global basketball world is very important.
During his time at Duke University, Curry was also reused by Coach K Sr. and quickly grew into the team's leading scorer.
In the just-concluded March Madness of 2008, although Duke University ended in the top 4, Curry was able to contribute 28.8 points, 5.6 assists and 2.4 steals per game, and hit more than 4 three-pointers per game.
At the same time, the 162 three-pointers in a single season also greatly set a new record for the number of three-pointers made in a single season by the NCAA.
With his outstanding results, Curry earned the title of "Kobayashi Fei" in the NCAA and became the only three college players of the year to be selected to Sports Illustrated, along with Derrick Rose and James Harden.
It is precisely because of this that Curry is more eager to enter the NBA in advance, the highest temple in the field of human basketball.
However, because of the mediocrity of his physical talent, Curry was still watched by the media with colored glasses and labeled as a "glass man".
Although he is not inferior to Derek Rose of the University of Memphis in terms of individual performance and statistics, and even far better than the likes of Westbrook and Kevin Love of UCLA,
But because of the thin impression of the absolutely gifted body, Stephen Curry was not too optimistic about the market prediction of the 2008 draft.
In the latest edition of Sports Illustrated's 2008 draft predictions, Stephen Curry was only the 12th pick in the first round, barely making it into the lottery.
And the first place in the draft simulation is not Derek Rose of the University of Memphis, but Michael Beasley of Kansas State University.
Curry's participation in the draft a year ahead of schedule doesn't seem to have much impact on this parallel world of NBA, and there hasn't been much media coverage and attention to it.
But only Lin Fei, a traverser, knows that Curry is destined to change the league, even if he is now the first person in the NBA.
The first round of the playoffs between the New York Knicks and the Atlanta Hawks is generally not too suspenseful.
With the Knicks maintaining their regular season form and full health, they easily swept the Hawks 4-0.
Lin Fei still played very relaxed in this series, averaging only 32 minutes per game, contributing 33.5 points, 1.3 rebounds, 10 assists, 4.7 steals and 2 blocks.
At the same time, the "singles king" Joe Johnson was limited to the greatest extent, allowing the opponent to average only 9.2 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists per game in 4 games, with a shooting rate of less than 26%.
You must know that Joe Johnson is the scoring champion of this Hawks team, and he can contribute 21.9 points in the regular season.
Some media even claimed that Joe Johnson had been prevented by Lin Fei from being psychologically shadowed and tried to visit a psychological counseling hospital in Atlanta.
Similar to Detroit Pistons quarterback Richard Hamilton, who was beaten to autism by Lin Fei, Joe Johnson did suffer a big loss from Lin Fei.
After easily sweeping the Hawks 4-0, Lin Fei and the Knicks also got a few days of rest to prepare for the next second round in training and recuperation.
The Miami Heat and the Toronto Raptors played quite anxiously in the series between the four and five places, and finally after 6 games, with Wade's breakthrough stunner, the final score was 4:2 to eliminate the Raptors led by the Dragon King.
Since then, the Knicks and the Heat have met in the second round of the playoffs.
After sending O'Neal away at the trade deadline, the Heat acquired Morris Williams and Bodogt, and Pat Riley, who is also head coach, added more pick-and-roll three-point tactics to the team.
This gave Morris Williams and the power forward in general more opportunities to shoot, and also shared more pressure for Dwyane Wade as the leader.
The starting center who replaced O'Neal, Australian champion Bodogt, gave the team a greater contribution in terms of blocking and pick-and-roll, and at the same time, the reduced shooting power was also evenly distributed to Wade, Xiao Mo, roughly and Battier.
This has given the Miami Heat a real boost to their fighting power and a broader imagination in the playoffs.
But in the face of the 75-win Knicks, the vast majority of media and experts, including fans, believe that the Heat still have no chance to stand out.
In the other first-round matchups, the Washington Wizards eliminated Iguodala's Philadelphia 76ers 4-1, while the Orlando Magic and Boston Celtics went to a tiebreaker.
To the surprise of fans, the Celtics, who are sixth in the East, under the strong play of Paul Pearce, Pau Gasol and Chris Paul "Three Pauls",
In the final tiebreaker, the Orlando Magic narrowly defeated the Orlando Magic 108-103, successfully scored on the top, and eliminated the opponent to enter the second round of the playoffs.
The voices that cursed Celtic manager Danny Angie finally became a little weaker.
In this series, Chris Paul, who is the starting point guard of the Green Army, is awakened, averaging 18.2 points, 12.6 assists and 3.0 steals per game, and truly plays the level of a top point guard.
Through this series, the fans of the Green Army really saw the future of the team under the leadership of the "Three Pauls".
In the West, the Los Angeles Lakers lost to the Utah Jazz 4:2, the San Antonio Spurs 4:2 Denver Nuggets, the Minnesota Timberwolves lost to the Phoenix Suns 2:4, and the New Orleans Hornets were eliminated by the Dallas Mavericks 3:4.
As a result, the Lakers will face the Mavericks in the second round, while the Spurs will continue to face the Suns.
Due to the injury of Kevin Garnett, the difficulty of Ray Allen, coupled with the ups and downs of Gerard Wallace and Szzebiak's form, there are some factors of disharmony in the team,
In the end, the defending champion Timberwolves stopped in the first round and really opened up a gap with the New York Knicks.
With the first round of the series all over, all the awards for the NBA's 07-08 season have also been released.
The first concern of fans is the production of the best team.
Team of the Match:
Lin Fei, Kobe Bryant, Dirk Nowitzki, Tim Duncan, Dwight Howard.
Best Team 2:
Gilbert Arenas, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony, Amare Stoudemire, Da Yao.
Best Team Three:
Stephen Marbury, Ray Allen, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett, Eddie Curry.
Best Defensive Team 1:
Lin Fei, Kobe Bryant, Ron Artest, Tim Duncan, Dwight Howard.
Defensive Team 2:
Chauncey Billups, Raga Bell, Bruce Leopard, Kevin Garnett, Marcus Kanby.
Lin Fei and Bryant have teamed up for the second year in a row, while Dwight Howard has also been selected for the double-first team.
As the league's rapidly rising No. 1 center, Dwight Howard was able to be selected for the double team in his fourth season, which shows his improvement and versatility in strength.
On the other hand, it also shows that in terms of center players, the competition for the league's active players is indeed obviously withering.
Although "Warcraft" and Lin Fei Kobe Bryant were selected for the double team together, the Magic were eliminated by the Green Army in the first round of the playoffs, which also proves that this rising Magic team is still too young after all and lacks enough experience in the playoffs.
In other awards, the best rookie was given to Kevin Durant of the Hornets without any suspense, and he was able to get 22 points and 6 rebounds in his rookie season, and at the same time led the Hornets to the top four in the West.
Such a result made Durant quickly become the focus of media attention, and at the same time full of expectations for the new season of Adu and the Hornets.
Originally, the owners of the Hornets were ready to sell the team, but it was precisely because of the rapid rise of this young team that saved the market in New Orleans and significantly increased the market value of the Hornets.
The Sixth Man of the Year went to Manu Ginobili of the Dallas Mavericks, the second time in his career that Ginobili won the award.
The Most Improved Player award went to the Orlando Magic's playmaker Sido Tekoglu.
Last season, Turkoglou averaged just 13.3 points per game, but this season he has quickly improved to 19.7 points, an increase of 6.4 points.
Danny Granger, who was also sent to the Seattle SuperSonics in the process of trading Ray Allen, has also grown well with James, averaging around 18.2 points per game this season, losing to Turkoglu in the race for the most improved player.
The best head coach went to Knicks coach Isaiah Thomas, who won 75 games.
Although everyone knows that the Knicks can get 75 wins, the credit of Isaiah Thomas, the head coach, is not the main one.
But who made the name of 75 wins too loud?
The competition for the best defensive player DPOY is just as fierce, with five of Lin Fei, Dwight Howard, Ron Artest, Tim Duncan and Marcus Kanbi all having a chance to be elected.
In the end, Lin Fei averaged 4.7 steals and 2.1 blocks per game, coupled with his huge role on the Knicks' defensive end in the game, and finally overwhelmed everyone and successfully won the first DPOY trophy of his career.
At the same time, Lin Fei is also the third guard player in the NBA to win the DPOY after Michael Jordan and Gary Payton.
What fans care about the most is naturally the winner of the regular season MVP.
Among the three finalists Lin Fei, Kobe and Gilbert Arenas, Lin Fei got all 118 first-place votes.
Became the first unanimous MVP in NBA history.
Madison Square Garden.
The Knicks' players were training on the court, and head coach Isaiah Thomas, who was the first to get the news, was so excited that he quickly clapped his hands and called the players off.
Looking at Lin Fei with burning eyes, Isaiah Thomas said excitedly:
"The latest news from ESPN, Lin, you won the regular season MVP for the second consecutive year, and it's a unanimous vote!"
Even if he had been prepared, Lin Fei's heart still inevitably throbbed, unanimous MVP, this is the only one in the history of the NBA.
It seems that the all-time best of 75 wins is far better than his average of 40 points per game last season.
The MVP of the regular season is to be awarded to the strongest player of the strongest team, and Lin Fei this season perfectly meets this requirement.
The Knicks teammates standing next to Lin Fei were also overjoyed, cheering for Lin Fei.
"Unanimous MVP, Lin, this is really awesome, there has never been a unanimous MVP in NBA history, Jordan led the Bulls to 72 wins that season, and it was not a unanimous vote!"
"75 wins plus 30+12+5 super god data, the shooting rate is more than 60%, and both offensive and defensive ends are top-notch, who else can this unanimous MVP give to Lin?"
"Lin has won the assist king, steal king, double team, DPOY and regular season MVP at the same time, and he is also the MVP of the unanimous vote, the absolute first in NBA history!"
Isaiah Thomas patted Lin Fei's shoulder with satisfaction, and then said to the players with sharp eyes:
"We had a perfect regular season this year, not only did Lin win hard honors such as regular season MVP and DPOY, Stephen Marbury and Eddie Curry were also named to the All-Star Team, and Ron was also a player on the All-Defensive Team!"
"The glory of 75 wins has always inspired us, but it can also be the pressure on us!"
"We still have one of the most important goals we have left in the playoffs to complete, and that is to regain what we lost in last year's Finals!"
"Only when they win the championship can the Knicks' season be truly perfect!"
For Lin Fei to win the regular season MVP by all votes, domestic fans are naturally even more excited, you must know that this is Lin Fei's second regular season MVP, and there is another weight on his honor book.
"Phineas has two regular season MVPs, two finals MVPs and three championships, these hard honors add up, and they are in the top ten in history!"
"Don't forget the honors of scoring champion, assist champion and DPOY, they are also very capable of playing, not to mention that Lin is still a double-team player for four consecutive seasons!"
"Easily swept the Hawks in the first round, according to the current state of the Knicks, this year's ironclad championship will be determined, and then Flying Brother will be four championships, and the Finals MVP will also get the third, not to mention the top ten in history, I feel like I have a chance to parachute into the top five in history, right?"
"Oh my God, Fei Ge is only 24 years old, this is the top five in history? How does this TMD make other stars play? ”
Key Arena, Seattle.
Although the SuperSonic's 07-08 season has ended early, James is still practicing his three-point shooting in the training gym.
Auden the Great is also practicing singles in the low post under the guidance of trainer "Big Dream" Olajuwon.
Head coach PJ Callesimo suddenly walked over and smiled at James:
"LeBron, Stephen Curry of Duke University and Derrick Rose of Memphis University will come to try out together, I believe you will definitely not miss this good show!"
When James heard the names of Curry and Rose, his eyes suddenly lit up:
"I'm very optimistic about these two young guys, and if the SuperSonics can get one of them in the draft, I believe we will definitely be strong next season!" (End of chapter)
