the rest, only noise

Chapter 1054
At the end of the semifinals, the NBA announced most of the individual awards except MVP.

The New Yorkers were furious, and the Knicks players, who had always been favored by voters, encountered a rare Waterloo.

Ewing has no team and is only selected for the second defense.

Wilson's second team and second defense.

Rodman defended.

The only surprise was Sean Kemp, who averaged 23 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists per game, and was selected to the second team.

The five players selected for the first team are Olajuwon, Sampson, Manning, Jordan, and Petrovic.

The other three players selected for the second team are Kevin Johnson, Barkley and Robinson.

The five players selected for the third team are Payton, Penny, Pippen, Gaithers, and O'Neal.

The most controversial is Ewing's absence.

But the matter is controversial for two main reasons.

The Knicks have the best record in the league and double-standard voters.

In terms of statistics, Ewing's possession of the ball is divided by his teammates, which is really not good. He averaged only 18 points and 9 rebounds per game.

Considering that other top insiders have played extremely dazzling data this year-as a star center without an average of 25+11+2 blocks per game, I am embarrassed to go out-Ewing's competitiveness is indeed not strong.

It is not impossible if the data is wiped out.

But the problem lies in the selection for a while.

This year, Olajuwon averaged 29 points, 12 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks per game, leading the team to the fourth record in the Western Conference.

David Robinson fell to the second team with an average of 32.1 points, 10.7 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game. It is also a bit controversial. After all, his data is similar to that of Olajuwon, and his record is better.

The controversy came from Sampson.

This year, Sampson, as the Celtics' only superstar, has too much burden.

When he scored 30 points, the Celtics won less than 40%.When he gets [-] points, the Celtics' winning percentage will reach [-]%.

The Celtics rely on him so much that it is an excessive wear and tear on him to let the 38-meter-[-] giant play more than [-] minutes a game.

In the end, Sampson only played 60 games and failed to bring the Celtics to the playoffs. With an average of 32 points, 10.1 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 2.6 blocks per game, he was selected for a team together with Olajuwon.

Why is there a problem?
Because Sampson and Olajuwon are both centers.

These two occupied the pits in positions four and five at the same time.

If you follow this standard, why can't Ewing and O'Neal be selected for the third team?Although his stats are a little short, but he has the best record in the league?What's more, which insider teammate with Rodman, Kemp, and Yu Tiancan can guarantee double figures in rebounds?Which insider comes to the Knicks and doesn't need to control his shots so that most people have the ball to play?

It has to be said that Ewing's popularity soared rapidly after Rauf's desecration of the Stars and Stripes.

If it was put in the past, no one would complain about him.

In contrast, Wilson seemed even more aggrieved.

Ewing was double-standard at any rate, but he was robbed by Manning, the insider, for a while.

Of course, center, power forward, and small forward are all forwards. Manning also claims to be a young Sampson who can play three forward positions. It makes sense to explain it.

The Knicks were being dealt with in this way, and of course the New York media would not let it go. They quickly dug up the names of some voters, and then conducted a large-scale match.

And the Knicks have only one voice.

That was Ewing's voice, and he said, "We don't give a damn."

Really?Louis didn't believe it.

If they didn't care at all, they wouldn't have swept the Miami Heat in four games by averaging 22 points per game.

This made Lewis Shafir desperate.

He thought the Knicks would play better without Louis coaching, but the Knicks in the Eastern Conference Finals were like a man-eating demon.

Ewing and Wilson dominated the paint and wings, Miller averaged 5 6-pointers per game, and Rodman grabbed [-] offensive rebounds per game.

The Heat have no backhand power at all.

"The walls in New York are too high and thick!" Shafier complained to Louie on the phone, "What can we do to tear it down?"

Louis smiled wryly.

It's normal for Lewis to have such thoughts.

Since 1988, the only teams that really threatened the Knicks were the Celtics at the end of their peak and the Blazers during the Flying Pig period.

What are the characteristics of these two teams?
The first was the Celtics in 1988. Facing the young Knicks, the Celtics had a third-line advantage.

The first is the inside advantage. Sampson beat Ewing like a son.

Next came Bird's dominance over Wilson, who nearly knocked Benj to pieces.

Then there is the advantage at the back line. Thomas in his prime scored on Stockton as easily as drinking water.

Since then, no team has had such an advantage over the Knicks.

The same is true for the Blazers during the Fliggy period. Jordan and Barkley are both single-line players with invincible personal abilities.

This is a bit like IG in the S8 period. The personal abilities of the middle and upper lines can surpass the current world.It just so happens that the Blazers have the best wing depth in the league, which makes them look stronger than the Celtics in 1988, because in addition to having unsolvable super players, they also have a rotation that can rival the Knicks.

What about the Heat?Such is the embarrassment they face.

Although there is a big four composed of Petrovic, Gaithers, Dumars and Reggie Lewis, none of these four players is an unsolvable player.

They all have obvious flaws.

However, if there are real superstars joining, these four people will be terrible.

So Lewis said to Shafir: "Be patient, Lewis, you need a more impactful player."

"However, Delagan has already been selected for a while, isn't he influential enough?"

"Benj has only been selected to the second team this season. How do you think Della is more influential than him?"

"Uh," Shafier said suddenly, "I remember that Benj's contract seems to expire this summer, right? Has he not renewed his contract yet?"

"Lewis, what are you thinking?"

"No no. I mean, if Benj wanted a change of scenery, Miami would be very attractive, hee hee."

Louie wouldn't be surprised if Benj went to Miami for the summer.

Los Angeles, Miami, and New York, these three cities should rank among the top three in terms of attractiveness to free agents.

"Then come on, Lewis." Louis said lightly.

Shafier originally wanted to tease Louis, how could he be loved by others?

Louie's answer was unexpected.

"Coach Lu, you have no objection?"

"When Benj is a free agent, he can go wherever he wants. If you do nothing when you can get him, it is not only disrespectful to him, but also a failure of your job as the president. You know what I mean? If Benj does go to Miami, I will only congratulate you and have no other thoughts."

"Coach Lu, I would like to call you the most loyal person in history."

"I hope Jerry Krause thinks so too."

"Hahaha, that pig doesn't even let the bread crumbs go, how can he see your honest heart, he has enough bread crumbs."

Shafir is definitely a strange man.

In front of Louis, or when they were talking on the phone, he acted like an ignorant and silly white sweet, with a very easy-to-talk appearance.

However, what Louis heard from other people, or what Baylor learned about Shafier through his friends, was that he was a very domineering, resolute and ruthless person.

Especially when making deals, Shafier is rumored to be good at exerting extreme pressure, always pushing all his bargaining chips in front of the other party and then pressing the other party to make a deal or not.

He has done this many times and made deals, not necessarily earning anything, but getting what he wanted every time.

So what is the real face of Shafier, Louis is not clear.

But he would not believe the rumors, because he was also an honest and loyal person in the rumors.

But everyone who knows knows that this is fucking bullshit.

Just as the Knicks swept the Heat, two more things happened.

One thing comes from the west, the Blazers and Warriors are in a bitter battle.

The two sides were tied in the first four games. Payton's defense and Penny Hardaway's all-around performance made the Blazers suffer a tough battle, and the public quarrel between Barkley and Riley exposed the Blazers' internal conflicts to the public.

And then there's the biggest dark humor of the season.

Patrick Ewing, without a team, defeated the highly popular Hakeem Olajuwon by 1% and was elected the regular season MVP of the 1993-94 season.

So, something more magical than the DPOY winner not entering the first defense happened.

The MVP winner has no array.
