NBA: I have 3, no D, and I can't dribble

Chapter 262 [262] The playoffs begin, the battle for the No. 1 center in the Eastern Conference!

According to information, the NBA headquarters is currently soliciting design ideas for the scoring champion trophy "Lin Fei Cup" from fans around the world through its official website.

And the relevant cooperative companies that have been responsible for producing MVP trophies and FMVP trophies have been instructed to produce the first scoring champion trophy.

It will be awarded together with the regular season MVP, best rookie and best defensive player trophies after the first round of the playoffs.

As the world's greatest basketball palace, the NBA has seen the emergence of many bright stars since its 60th anniversary, and has also awarded numerous individual and team honors.

Among them, in terms of individual awards, some awards have trophies, and some awards do not have trophies.

Awards such as regular season MVP, Finals MVP, championship, All-Star MVP, Defensive Player of the Year (DPOY), Player of the Month, and Best Rookie all have trophies.

As for the best team, best defensive team, best player of the week, and various data kings, these awards currently do not have trophies.

Although in later generations Adam Joke vigorously promoted the reform of the NBA, renamed the major trophies, and added trophies for the best lineup and various data kings,

But it's somewhat of a dead end deliberate and sensational.

Now that David Stern has established and awarded the scoring trophy, it is truly in line with the people's wishes. It has not only received the support of most executives at the headquarters, but has also been welcomed by fans around the world.

After all, every fan who truly loves basketball and the NBA will sincerely admire Lin Fei's scoring feast with the Knicks this season.

Compared with the long-ago era of "ancient behemoth" Wilt Chamberlain, although Lin Fei's average points per game and highest score in a single game have not yet surpassed his peak score of 20,000.

But in terms of scoring difficulty, scoring explosiveness, enjoyment and even overall shooting rate, it is higher than Zhang Bolun.

At a symposium specially held by ESPN, Hajim Olajuwon, Charles Barkley, Larry Bird, Scottie Pippen, Reggie Miller and others were also present.

Talk about the significance and nature of setting up a scoring trophy at the league headquarters and naming it the "Lin Fei Cup" instead of the "Zhang Bolun Cup".

"Although my career was right in the middle between Wilt and Lin, when I entered the league with Michael and Charles in 1984, Wilt had already retired, and when I retired in the early 21s, Lin had not yet entered the league. !”

"But I have watched Wilt's games since I was a child, and now I have witnessed Lin's many scoring feasts with my own eyes!"

"Especially the 75 points in last year's Christmas game, which was actually scored when Lin missed the third quarter and only played three quarters!"

"In terms of scoring efficiency, playing time and competitiveness, Lin averaged 40.9 points per game this season, which is not inferior to Wilt Chamberlain's 50.4 points that year!"

Hajim Olajuwon was the first to give his own opinion. As a senior and an inside player, he spoke highly of Lin Fei's performance on both offense and defense.

As the number one Lin Fei, Charles Barkley even took the initiative to applaud the establishment of the "Lin Fei Cup" at the league headquarters, and took the initiative to praise David Stern:

"I think it is a very appropriate choice to set up the first scoring trophy starting this season. The NBA is entering a new era. Encouraging players to perform better on the offensive end has always been the keynote of league reform!"

"Whether this scoring trophy is called the Lin Fei Cup or the Wilt Chamberlain Cup, it has its own meaning and value, but if it were me, I would definitely be on Lin's side!"

Larry Bird also praised: "You have to know that in the NBA in the 60s, there were only 17 teams, and a few stars were concentrated in a few teams like the Celtics and Lakers. The overall competitive environment was It’s not big!”

"Now the league has 30 teams. Even though the competitive environment of the New York Knicks in the East this season is far less than that of the West, it is still much more difficult than it was in the 60s!"

Reggie Miller, as the temporary three-point champion in NBA history, highly affirmed Lin Fei's achievements this season:

"Fortunately, I have commented on at least 10 Knicks games this season. Lin's scoring has turned into an art form, and the value of the 'Lin Fei Cup' is also of great significance!"

"Kobe's 35.6 points last season and Lin's 40.9 points this season have greatly promoted the development of the league's offensive trend!"

"The era of Wilt Chamberlain is over, but this era belongs to Lin and Kobe!"

While establishing the scoring trophy, ESPN's latest newspaper also reviewed the naming of several major individual trophies in the league:

The regular season MVP trophy is the most valuable player award of the season and is the ceiling of personal honor in the NBA. Its name is the Maurice Podoloff Cup.

Podolov was the first commissioner of the NBA. During his tenure, he not only implemented the draft system, but also introduced the offensive 24-second violation, which greatly accelerated the pace and enjoyment of the game. He also negotiated the NBA's first live television contract. .

The name of the Finals MVP trophy is the Bill Russell Cup. Mr. Russell is famous as the "King of the Ring", so naturally no one would object to naming the FMVP after him.

Fans are naturally more aware of the name of the championship trophy, which is the famous O'Brien Cup.

O'Brien was the NBA president who took office in 1975 and played a decisive role in labor negotiations with the employee conference.

In addition, there are trophies for the best defensive player, best player of the month, best rookie, and All-Star MVP, but they have not been named so far.

Because of Kobe's helicopter disaster in his previous life, the league also named the AMVP trophy the Kobe Bryant Cup at the All-Star Game the following year.

In today's parallel world, Lin Fei naturally does not want such a tragedy to happen again. The naming of the AMVP trophy in the future will have a huge butterfly effect.

While Lin Fei won the NBA's highest scoring average in the past 45 years, Lin Fei also ranked third in the personal assists list in the 06-07 season, averaging 10.1 assists per game.

This also made Lin Fei the first superstar in NBA history to average 40+ points and 10+ assists per game in a single season, and the first scoring champion to average 10+ assists per game.

While maintaining a super high production of scoring, he can also have such a top performance in organizing the team.

Looking at the entire history of the NBA, it is absolutely unprecedented.

Seeing that the owner of the Dallas Mavericks, Mark Cuban, specifically funded the filming of a documentary on the Mavericks under Nowitzki's leadership.

Naturally, James Dolan cannot be left behind. He has long been looking for a Hollywood director to film a season documentary for Lin Fei and the Knicks, highlighting Lin Fei's epic scoring and team-leading performance.

At the same time, he spent millions of dollars to invite Michael Jackson to compose the theme song "The King of New York" specifically for the Knicks documentary, and sang it with Taylor Swift.

This vigorous publicity, coupled with Lin Fei's phenomenal season performance, has also completely established his "King of New York" persona.

This 20-minute documentary is played at least three times a day in Times Square in Manhattan, New York. Countless New York fans stopped to watch it, making Lin Fei truly a man of the hour across America.

Suns star Steve Nash won the season assists title with 11.6 assists per game, becoming the assists leader with the highest average assists per game in the past ten seasons.

Stephon Marbury ranks second with 10.7 assists per game. Although he failed to win the assists title, Marbury's transformation this season is visible to the naked eye.

By Lin Fei's side, this "lone wolf" has truly evolved from a cancer to an excellent point guard.

The season's rebounding title was won by Timberwolves star Kevin Garnett. This is also the fourth consecutive season in his career that the "Wolf King" has won the rebounding title.

Garnett averaged 24.6 points, 12.8 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game this season. His performance on both offense and defense is top-notch, and he has always been at the top of the regular season MVP list.

The steal leader is still Lin Fei, who is far ahead with 3.3 steals per game. The "bearded" Byron Scott, who ranks second, only has 2.1.

The leader in blocks is statistician Marcus Camby, who averaged 3.2 per game. In the original world, Marcus Camby was also elected the best defensive player in the 06-07 season.

But in today's parallel world, the competition for defensive players is obviously more intense this season. Lin Fei and Garnett appear to have a better chance of winning DPOY than Marcus Camby.

Lin Fei won the scoring title and steal title this season. This is also his first scoring title and third steal title in his four-year career.

Originally, there were five data kings in one. Since a trophy was set up for the scoring king, trophies should also be set up for the other four data.

If it is the Adam Joke of later generations, it will definitely be this pissing one, lest the alliance will not fall into chaos. But today's David Stern is not so eager for quick success. The reason for establishing the scoring trophy is because Lin Fei has performed unprecedentedly in scoring this season.

But in the other four statistics, there is currently no star of the same level.

Compared with the five data kings, fans are naturally more concerned about the release of voting awards such as regular season MVP, best team of the season and best defensive team.

Especially for the MVP of the regular season, Lin Fei and Dirk Nowitzki compete fiercely this season. One of them has reached the peak level in terms of personal data, and his performance in leading the team to improve is obvious to all.

The other led the team to the best 73 wins in history, which will go down in history.

No matter who wins the final regular season MVP, Lin Fei or Dirk Nowitzki, it will make countless fans feel regretful.

During the voting process of sports reporters and commentators across the United States and Canada, David Stern and NBA headquarters are also actively negotiating, hoping to reach a new MVP selection mechanism to comply with the extremely fierce competition for MVP this season.

On April 4, the first shot of the 18-2006 NBA playoffs was fired.

The New York Knicks, led by Lin Fei, sit at home to welcome the visiting Orlando Magic.

In the home team's locker room before the game, the Knicks' players were in a positive state, full of energy, and full of confidence in getting a good start in the playoffs at home.

The most excited person is Eddie Curry, who will face Dwight Howard in this series. In Eddie Curry's opinion, this is his chance to face the No. 1 center in the Eastern Conference.

"Does Dwight deserve to be called Warcraft? My hobby is hamburgers, cola, and World of Warcraft!"

It is said that he gave up Coca-Cola, but how could Eddy Curry really give up? He still drinks it secretly in private, but it does not affect training and weight maintenance. This has already made the Knicks coaching staff and Lin Fei was very satisfied.

"Who is Hedo Turkoglu? Facing such an unknown person really makes me uninterested!"

Zach Randolph is even more arrogant, which makes Lin Fei, the captain, inevitably have to give Black Bear a few words of warning.

"Zach, although Turkoglu is a power forward, he is the Magic's most accurate three-point shooter. He averages 5 shots per game and can hit more than two three-pointers. This kind of spatial power forward is not easy for you to deal with. !”

Madison Square Garden tonight was filled with cheers, and the 100% attendance was not a problem. At the same time, it entered the playoffs, and the average ticket price has also increased exponentially.

In the square outside the arena, tens of thousands of fans also gathered, including many fans traveling to New York from other places.

In the center of the square, the formally sculpted statue of Lin Fei stands majestically. His figure is vigorous and vivid as he shoots the ball in the air. His eyes are firm, his edges are sharp, and his facial features are handsome and lifelike.

Many fans stood in front of Lin Fei's statue and lined up to take photos. Special security personnel needed to constantly maintain order.

"Before the start of the season, many fans were still questioning James Dolan's stupid decision to erect a statue for Lin Fei in advance. Looking back now, this should be the wisest decision, right?"

"The NBA headquarters has set up a special scoring trophy for Lin Fei. What's wrong with erecting a statue in Madison Square Garden?"

"The competition in the Eastern Conference this season is far less than that in the Western Conference. I really hope Lin Fei and the Knicks can seize this golden opportunity and reach the finals!"

Before the game started, the Knicks' official clip of the team's top ten shots of the season was also scrolling on the huge screen outside Madison Square Garden.

The fans watching were excited and the memories are vivid in their minds.

In the stadium, at the referee's whistle, all the starting players of the two teams also walked onto the court.

The New York Knicks’ starting five are:

Point Guard (PG): Stephon Marbury,

Shooting guard (SG): Lin Fei,

Small forward (SF): Trevor Ariza,

Power Forward (PF): Zach Randolph,

Center (C): Eddie Curry.

The starting five for the Orlando Magic are:

Point Guard (PG): Jameer Nelson,

Shooting Guard (SG): Maurice Evans,

Small forward (SF): Grant Hill,

Power forward (PF): Hedo Turkoglu,

Center (C): Dwight Howard.

The two major centers, Howard and Eddie Curry, stepped into the center circle and jumped for the ball. The two men were at war with each other and their momentum was fierce, like two lions locked in an octagonal cage.

"Dwight, with your height, you dare to lie that you are 2.11 meters tall? How inferior are you?"

Eddy Curry deliberately swept the top of his head with his palms, making a mocking gesture of height.

Eddie Curry, whose official height is 2.13 meters, is really tall, but standing next to Howard, he is at least seven or eight centimeters taller. This shows that Howard's height of 2.11 meters is too high.

In fact, at the beginning of the season, Van Gundy also tried to have Howard play power forward and Tony Barty on the bench to serve as center, but it was later discovered that it was not suitable.

And with Howard's body jumping and wingspan talents, even if he is short in height, he can still dominate the center position.

Hearing Eddy Curry make fun of his height, the embarrassed look on Howard's face flashed across his face, and he laughed heartlessly and replied:

"Without Lin here, I really don't believe you will be an All-Star. Eddie, are you tall? I'm going to dunk at least five goals on your head tonight!"

In front of the technical stage on the sidelines, two coaches, Isaiah Thomas and Stan Van Gundy, also smiled and stood up to shake hands with each other. The first game of the playoffs of the 06-07 season officially started at the whistle.

"Beep!"

Howard showed off his terrifying spring speed and jumping talent on Eddie Curry's head, taking the lead in flying the basketball. The Magic's first attack was given to Howard who was inside.

Howard hit Eddie Curry with his back, but he tried to hit him twice and found that he couldn't hit him, so he could only feint his opponent with rough steps, turn around and try a hook shot.

"Bang!"

Although the ball missed the frame, Howard, who was active and keen, grabbed the offensive rebound against Eddie Curry and dunked in the second takeoff.

"Boom!"

Howard showed his unlimited firepower in the opening game with this ball. Although Eddie Curry is not lacking in talent, he ultimately lost half a step to "Warcraft" in terms of movement speed. (End of chapter)
