Chapter 118 Regular Season MVP
There are different opinions on the speculation of the finals, and no one can convince anyone.

However, as the playoffs deepened, more honors in the league finally surfaced.

The high-profile 2016-2017 regular season MVP was finally picked up by Westbrook of the Thunder.

This incident once again sparked a war of words in the league, and the fans were very dissatisfied with Westbrook winning the MVP.

But in fact, this season is Westbrook's most explosive season.

After former teammate Durant defected to the Warriors, Westbrook averaged a triple-double and broke the NBA's historical triple-double record.

However, the Thunder team led by Westbrook was eliminated by the Mosaic team 4:1 in the first round. This made Westbrook's ability to lead the team questioned.

There were a few games in the regular season that really confirmed the fans' guesses. In order to achieve a triple-double, Westbrook often gave up his defense on the outside and rushed to the inside to grab rebounds. He even asked Adams to give him rebounds in public to help him achieve a triple-double.

This is really nonsense.

Fans are more inclined to award the MVP trophy to Harden. Harden is the assist leader this season and second in the league in scoring.

In addition, the Mosaic team's record is also the third in the Western Conference, and easily defeated the Thunder in the first round of the playoffs. No matter how you look at it, this year's MVP should also be awarded to Harden.

However, these honors are false. Only the NBA championship MVP is the trophy that truly proves the value of a star.

Just when the popularity of the regular season MVP has not gone down, the Clippers, the fourth in the West, and the Jazz, the fifth in the West, finally decided the winner.

The Clippers beat the Jazz at home 104:91 to advance to the second round.

So far, the four promotion teams in the West are completely determined, namely the Warriors, Spurs, Mosaics and Clippers.

The second round of the series will start tomorrow. The first game to be played is the first round match between the Celtics and the Wizards in the Eastern Division.

The battle between the Raptors and the Cavaliers will start the day after the Celtics game.

Before the game, ESPN specially sent a special reporter to interview the head of the Cavaliers star James.

There is also a little episode here.

James has publicly questioned why the most improved player this year is not Antetokounmpo.

Everyone knows that James has a very good relationship with Brother Antetokounmpo and Brother Nongmei, and the three of them have been flirting in private all the time.

Unexpectedly, the league actually awarded the Most Improved Player award to Ge Feng, which touched the bottom line of basketball for the James brothers. He once publicly voiced his grievances for Antetokounmpo.

"James, as we all know, you have publicly questioned the Most Improved Player of the Year. Do you have anything to say about this?" The reporter asked straight to the point.

James didn't answer, but just buttoned the lower corner of his eye, revealing a blood-red eye socket.

This answer is really brilliant.

The reporter carefully recorded James' action, and continued to ask: "In the first round of the Eastern Conference knockout round, the Raptors eliminated Antetokounmpo's Bucks 4:2. Ge Feng played well. What do you think about this?"

Seeing that this question couldn’t be avoided, James said, “We’re going to play against the Raptors tomorrow. As you know, the Raptors are a very good team. They have the best players in the league, DeRozan, Lowry, Ibaka, Van Vleet, uh… and Valanciunas. I believe tomorrow will be a very exciting game.”

James said several names in one breath, but he never mentioned Ge Feng who played the best.

This kind of answer is too clever. James didn't say a bad thing about Ge Feng from the front, but expressed his position incisively and vividly.

He just doesn't like Ge Feng's ability to win the most improved player. This award should belong to my good brother-Antetokounmpo.

After the brief interview was over, the reporter couldn't wait to put the content of the interview on the Internet, which immediately caused an uproar.

"James is standing up for his brother again. Poor Ge Feng, being pushed by my emperor, isn't he going to die."

"Not necessarily, Ge Feng's three-pointer is still very good."

"Three-pointers are good for nothing! Look around James, which one is not the top three-point shooter in the league. The Raptors have just learned to shoot three-pointers, and they are still far behind."

The influence of James is really great, and people have drawn their attention from the contest between the Celtics and the Wizards and actively participated in the discussion.

This wave of discussions continued all night.

The next day, when the Cavaliers played at home against the Toronto Raptors who came to challenge, the discussion about James' remarks yesterday had not passed.

Reporters from other media are still digging into James' views on this issue, but James has remained silent, not saying a word.

So the reporter turned his attention to Ge Feng again.

"Ge, do you think you can win the Most Improved Player award this year, is there a possibility of black box manipulation?"

When the reporter asked Ge Feng, he was obviously not as kind as when he asked James.

After all, James is a great god, and they can't afford to offend them.

But they are not afraid of a young player who has just started on the team.

Before Ge Feng came to Cleveland, he naturally heard some rumors, but Ge Feng didn't take James' words to heart.

Ge Feng still had to defend the honor that should be defended.

Ge Feng said seriously to the reporter: "I feel that I deserve the title of the most improved player. As for the black-box operation, how is it possible? I am just an ordinary player, and it took me a year to even start the game. Some people questioned my secret desire to operate, so I really have to thank you for looking up to me. How can I have such a great ability to manipulate the league as you say?"

Ge Feng's answer was to the point, the reporter obviously froze for a moment, as if he felt that the question he asked was too stupid.

The reporter saw that this road was blocked by Ge Feng's words, so he thought about the next question: "Are you confident in defeating the Cavaliers in the second round of the series? You know, the Cavaliers have the league's number one god James in charge, and you, Van Vleet and Siakam are just rookies in the league."

Ge Feng really didn't want to answer the reporter's question anymore. Ge Feng felt that the reporter was simply mentally ill and his professional ability was too weak.

Who asks such a stupid question?

Aren't we here to beat the Cleveland Cavaliers?

"Of course, isn't that what we're here to do?"

Ge Feng asked back with a half-smile, which directly left the reporter speechless.

Nas was listening to their interview not far away. When Ge Feng said this, Nas suddenly laughed.

Heh, this kid is becoming more and more eloquent...
