With the Eastern and Western Conference finals in full swing, the final major awards of the league season have finally been announced.
The first is the most important regular season MVP. Sure enough, there is no suspense about this award. Thunder guard Russell Westbrook, who averages a triple-double per game, won it.
Although the Thunder's record this season is very average, with only 47 wins and 35 losses in the regular season, and they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs, Westbrook averaged 31.6 points, 10.7 rebounds and 10.4 assists per game.
It's so amazing, no matter who you are, you will be shocked by his personal performance.
Therefore, despite the team's poor record, Westbrook defeated many competitors and became the 2017 regular season MVP.
The best defensive player was ultimately awarded to Green.
Compared with defensive heroes such as Wang Feng and Gobert, Green still has a more obvious advantage.
As for the awards such as Best Rookie, Most Improved Player and Best Sixth Man, since they are not too important awards, it’s okay not to mention them.
…
A few days after the season awards were announced, the Eastern and Western finals also came to an end.
In the East, the game came to the Celtics' home court, the North Shore Garden Arena, known as the Devil's home court, but the home court bonus failed to allow the Celtics to win even a victory.
112:99,129:120.
In the two away games, the Cavaliers won the games cleanly and with a total score of 4:0, they swept the Celtics and entered the finals with their heads held high.
In the four-game series, facing the Celtics who mainly focused on zone defense, Wang Feng became the first offensive core, averaging 31.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.1 steals per game, shooting over 50% from the field, and his efficiency was astonishing.
James was as efficient as ever. Although his scoring was lower than in the previous two games, he still had 27 points, 6.4 rebounds and 6.8 assists.
Apart from the two, Irving averaged 19.8 points per game and Love also averaged 17 points.
The four starters have scored close to 100 points in total. Their super scoring ability completely makes up for the weakness of the Cavaliers' bench.
Looking back at the Celtics, the team's highest scorer is Avery Bradley, who is good at defense. The team's first offensive core, Isaiah Thomas, after the second game, because of the previous
The hip injury worsened and he had to miss all subsequent games. His performance in the first two games was also very disappointing, which was disappointing.
On the other side, in the Western Conference finals, the Warriors also eliminated the Spurs 4-0 without any surprises and entered the finals.
As a result, this season, the teams from the Eastern and Western Conferences that entered the finals eliminated all the teams with a 4:0 sweep in the first three rounds of the playoffs. This situation even if we look at NBA history
It is also unique.
The battle between knights and warriors, Mars hitting the earth, is finally here!
…
On June 1, 2017, the first game of the Finals took place at Oracle Arena, the home of the Golden State Warriors.
Before the game started, the entire Warriors arena was decorated into a golden ocean. All the home fans wore yellow T-shirts representing the Warriors' home colors. They were in high spirits and cheered and screamed loudly.
For the Warriors, who have won the championship for two consecutive years, this season will be the moment when they win their third championship trophy and create their first true dynasty since the 20th century!
According to popular parlance, an NBA dynasty must win three consecutive championships.
The two three consecutive championships won by Jordan and the Bulls, as well as the three consecutive championships won by the Lakers and OK combination in 1999, 01 and 02, are both undisputed dynasties.
However, with the development of the league, there are many strong teams. As a result, no team in the league has achieved three consecutive championships in the past ten years.
The ones closest to a dynasty are the Lakers who won two consecutive championships in 2010, the Heat who won two consecutive championships in 2013, and the Warriors who won two consecutive championships at this stage.
The first two teams have become history, and the Warriors are only one step away from winning three consecutive championships and creating a dynasty!
…
"Charles, after half a year, the bet between the two of us is finally about to be fulfilled!"
In the TNT studio, facing the camera, O'Neal smiled very happily.
The bet on Christmas Day ended with his victory, giving him an undefeated position in the bet. Even if the Cavaliers lost in the finals, the two only tied 1:1.
But it would be interesting if the final winner of the Finals is the Cavaliers.
As long as he imagined Barkley running around the TNT headquarters wearing only a pair of underwear, he felt inexplicably excited.
"Humph, are you so happy?"
Barkley glanced at O'Neal and said calmly: "The series hasn't started yet! You have to understand that most of the media's predictions before the game are biased towards the Warriors winning the final game.
Victorious."
Although the Warriors' performance this season has been disappointing, it was only comparable to the Warriors' 74 wins last year.
The Warriors, who have the best regular season record in the league, are definitely the strongest among the 30 teams this season.
Ranked first in the league in scoring efficiency, first in points differential per game, and even ranked among the top in the league in defensive efficiency.
In these aspects, even the Cavaliers can only rank behind the Warriors.
And although the Cavaliers completed a double-play against the Warriors in the regular season, it was only a reference after all. The regular season and the playoffs are different. Moreover, when the Warriors were at home in the second game, Curry was still absent due to injury. Otherwise,
It's hard to say who will win or lose.
…
"It's been a long time..."
On the court, Wang Feng looked at the golden home court of the Warriors and couldn't help but shake his head slightly, feeling nostalgic.
Scenes like this would only appear in the Eastern and Western Conference Finals and the Grand Finals. The last time Wang Feng saw the entire stadium covered in golden yellow was this time last year.
A year passed in the blink of an eye, and now he was wearing a dark red Cavaliers jersey, standing opposite the Warriors.
Wang Feng's eyes looked to the other side of the field, staying for a moment on Curry, Thompson and other old teammates, but did not take the initiative to say hello to the other side. The other side obviously had the same idea.
In this finals, neither the Cavaliers nor the Warriors can be defeated.
In addition to the Heat, James, who has failed in the Finals for three consecutive years, has no retreat. If he continues to fail, his reputation and historical status will suffer a serious blow, and he may even be quickly surpassed by Curry.
If he surpasses him, he will completely become a laughing stock, and the title of the league's number one player will also change hands.
On the other side, the same goes for the Warriors.
Three consecutive championships to create a dynasty is the obsession of the entire Warriors team. For Durant, who has already given up some, if he still fails to win the championship under such circumstances, what awaits him will be even better than James.
Tragic results.
Sarcasm, ridicule, and abuse will always be with Durant in his future career, and he will never turn around!
