Chapter 407 Awards announced, Wang Feng's four consecutive MVPs?
The Big Three of the Lakers, Wang Feng and Butler, are all all-stars who have already become famous. Wang Feng holds five championships and three MVPs. Butler has been selected to the All-NBA Team and the All-Defensive Team many times. He has also proven his ability in the Bulls and Timberwolves. Ability to lead a team.
As for Ingram, you might say he was too young in the past few seasons, but this season, during the regular season when Butler was reimbursed, Ingram is fully worthy of the giants by averaging 24.8 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game. title.
As for the Nets, the Big Three of Durant, Irving, and George, not to mention, were once all-powerful players.
Durant, the league's strongest scorer before Wang Feng, a certain No. 1 point guard - a well-known Flat Earth supporter - Chairman Ou who does not take the vaccine, and George, who is conscientious and willing to be the third-in-command of the Nets.
The quality of the Nets' Big Three is excellent, second only to the Clippers in the entire league, and the chemistry between the three is much better than that of the Clippers' Big Three.
However, the reason why the Nets are in their current glory is directly related to the butterfly effect.
George's ability to run to the Nets is the result of the butterfly effect. George, who is good at both offense and defense and can play without the ball, is obviously more suitable for the Nets than Harden, one of the Big Three of the Nets in another time and space.
Secondly, since there is no epidemic in this time and space, the funny plot of Irving being brain-dead and unable to play without vaccination has not happened. Even Durant and Irving have far fewer injuries this season than in another time and space, although they are not. Not completely healthy, but overall attendance rate is pretty good.
The Nets have been able to grow to this level, and Wang Feng is inseparable from it.
…
Of course, the Lakers VS Nets in the finals are just the current predictions of the media. The Eastern and Western Conference finals are not over yet, and everything is not completely finalized. Antetokounmpo Antetokounmpo may lose the red eye and act like another time and space. How about dealing with some off-game moves for Irving?
Anyway, the players on the Lakers team have obviously become cautious.
The Warriors are also a team with a criminal record. In the years when they won the championship, they also had several role players who did dirty work. Green, one of the Big Three, is even more dirty.
With the victory already in hand, what the Lakers need to do now is to protect the safety of the players as much as possible. Don't enter the finals but be short of major generals. That would be really fatal!
On May 18, the Lakers played at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The two teams played in the Western Conference Finals of the Series G3. After a fierce battle, the Lakers won the game 110:99, with a big score of 3:0 and the match point. .
Curry's bottoming out in G2 seemed to have entered a cooling down state. In this game, Wang Feng immediately returned to his original form. He made 7 of 20 shots and 2 of 10 three-pointers. Even his usually very stable free throws were not good.
In this game, Curry's process of holding the ball to attack the frame and causing fouls was quite successful. After getting 14 free throws in the previous game, he got 12 free throw opportunities again in this game. However, compared with 12 of 14 free throws in the previous game, he made 85.7% of them. Curry only made 7 of 12 free throws in this game, and his free throw percentage was only 58.3%.
The team's first offensive core only scored 23 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists. Thompson and Green scored 19 points and 17 points respectively. Naturally, the Warriors could not win.
Already trailing 0:3, the Warriors, like the Lakers' opponent the Jazz in the second round, had no hope of a comeback.
Unlike the Jazz, the Warriors were not able to come back in the G4 game to save their face a little bit. Instead, they were defeated neatly 4:0 and were swept.
The Universe, which has dominated the league for several years and won three championships in four years, was swept out of the playoffs for the first time. Although it is the highest competitive stage under the finals like the Western Conference Finals, it still makes people feel embarrassed. They were once unparalleled.
The Warriors would actually end up like this.
…
The Western Conference finals have already been decided, but the Eastern Conference finals are still fiercely fought.
The Nets, who led 2:0 at the beginning, originally thought they could end the game in 4 straight games like the Lakers.
But the Bucks are not the Warriors, and the Nets are not the Lakers.
In another time and space, the Bucks this season are the championship team that is going to win the championship. Antetokounmpo is at the peak of his career, showing strong dominance on both ends of the offense and defense.
After returning to their home court, the Bucks, led by Antetokounmpo, won two consecutive games and tied the score to 2:2.
In the crucial battle of Tianwang Mountain, the Nets fought a fierce and bloody battle with the Bucks at home, and finally won the victory with difficulty, taking the lead in winning the match point, with the total score reaching 3:2.
But the Bucks, who returned home, were not willing to fail like this, and tenaciously won the next game to tie the score.
As a result, the Eastern Conference finals showdown, which the Eastern Conference originally thought would be dominated by the Nets, turned into a tiebreaker.
The Nets and Bucks will decide the winner in G7 to determine who is the strongest team in the Eastern Conference.
Before this, the league officially announced the final awards of the season.
In the first two seasons, the league held award ceremonies with great fanfare and postponed the awarding of season awards until after the finals.
However, after two seasons, the awards ceremony has not received praise and attention, but has received a lot of negative reviews.
Many stars will go abroad for vacation or business activities after their team's playoff schedule ends. However, the awards ceremony was postponed until after the finals, resulting in many stars having to change their schedules.
Moreover, in the so-called award ceremony, the awarding of awards must be suspenseful in order to be quite interesting.
However, although the voting results for various NBA competition awards are announced, in fact the winners have already known the results in advance.
In the first two award ceremonies, the regular season MVP candidates who were accompanying the runners chose to be absent. Only the award-winning Wang Feng attended the award ceremony. The whole award ceremony looked really embarrassing, especially when the award presenters had to pretend to be suspenseful. As a result, the audience
There's an MVP candidate sitting...
Holding the awards ceremony was time-consuming and labor-intensive, and required renting a venue to invite celebrities to support the event. After two years of hard work, the response was not good, so the league simply canceled the awards ceremony and restored the previous rule of officially announcing the season awards in the middle of the playoffs.
The Best Sixth Man Award was won by Jordan Clarkson, who averaged 18.4 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game.
Did the Most Improved Player Award go round and round, or it went to former Lakers player Julius Randle of the New York Knicks just like in another time and space.
The Rookie of the Year was won by the Hornets' three-goal player LaMelo Ball. The presentation of this award was quite controversial because Edwards, the No. 1 pick, averaged 19.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.1 steals per game this season, which was no better than his three-goal performance of 15.7 points and 5.9 points per game.
Rebounds 6.1 assist differential.
The best defensive player was once again won by Gobert. This is also the third time that Gobert has won the best defensive player award.
And the last and most important award is the regular season MVP.
Before the regular season MVP award was awarded, the outside world generally believed that Antetokounmpo Antetokounmpo was the player most likely to win the regular season MVP.
No matter how exaggerated Wang Feng's average numbers are this season, the decline in the Lakers' record is an indisputable fact. What's more important is that as a Chinese player, Wang Feng has won the regular season MVP for three consecutive years in the NBA. If he continues to achieve four consecutive years
The American reporters who voted for the regular season MVP achievement will feel ashamed.
However, when the final voting results were announced, no one expected that Wang Feng would be the winner of the 2020-21 regular season MVP!
Not to mention other people, even Wang Feng was a little confused. After all, even he thought that this regular season MVP would most likely be lost by unspoken rules.
But when he took a closer look at the voting results, he couldn't help but laugh and cry.
In terms of final score, Wang Feng scored 782 points, which was only 3 points higher than Antetokounmpo, who scored 779 points. It can be said to be a thrilling victory.
In terms of first-place votes, Antetokounmpo was the highest vote-getter among the candidates, with 55 votes, but he only got 2 second-place votes and 43 third-place votes, with a total score of 779.
Wang Feng only received 30 first-place votes, 66 second-place votes, and 4 third-place votes, with a total score of 782.
As for Nikola Jokic, who ranked third, he received 15 first-place votes, 32 second-place votes, and 53 third-place votes, with a total score of 639.
In the same regular season MVP selection, it is rare for three people to score more than 600 points. It is unprecedented that the difference between the first and second points is only 3 points.
It can be seen that during the voting, local American reporters deliberately praised Antetokounmpo, so his number one vote was nearly twice as high as that of Wang Feng.
But at the same time, some media reporters are also a little worried about their impartiality as media reporters, and it is not easy to vote for Wang Feng too little. After all, this is the first player in the history of the league to average 40+10+10 super triple-double per game in the regular season. Therefore,
Wang Feng's second vote was as high as 66.
Who would have thought that he was too clever but was mistaken? Wang Feng actually relied on his second vote share to beat Giannis Antetokounmpo by 3 points. In this thrilling way, he won the regular season MVP award for the fourth consecutive year with a 3-point advantage!
Looking back now, if a reporter changes the voting order for Wang Feng when voting, maybe the regular season MVP will become Antetokounmpo Antetokounmpo, but who would have thought of this result?
When the league official tallied the votes, they were speechless. Unexpectedly, Wang Feng was awarded the fourth consecutive regular season MVP award.
They also thought about whether to operate in secret to win over Wang Feng, the regular season MVP, but after careful consideration, they still did not take this risk.
The voting results are all open and transparent. During the voting period, they can influence the voting judgment of media reporters. However, if the voting results are already out, if they continue to do this, once it is exposed, the alliance will be disgraced, and the gain will not be worth the loss.
Therefore, the alliance can only bite the bullet and announce the results.
