Chapter 224 Three formations and one defense

Subsequently, the heavyweight honors were also released one after another.

best team.

For a while:
O'Neal, Duncan, Nowitzki, Iverson, Nash.

Second team: Stoudemire, Garnett, McGrady, James, Wade.

Three teams: Big Ben, Marion, Li Lei, Ray Allen, Kobe.

Kobe scored 27.6 points, 5.9 rebounds and 6 assists this season. Unfortunately, due to injury, he only played 66 games. The Lakers did not make the playoffs, so they were only selected for three teams.

Best defensive lineup.

One defense:
Duncan, Garnett, Li Lei, Larry Hughes, Big Ben, Bowen.

Second defense:

Camby, Prince, Billups, Kidd, Wade, Kirilenko.

It is worth mentioning that the selection of the best defensive team is not based on position, allowing multiple players to appear in one position.

In the case of the same score, 6 players are allowed in a lineup.

This year is particularly coincidental, there are 6 people in the first defense and the second defense.

The last two major awards: DPOY, MVP.

Defensive Player of the Year (DPOY).

大本场均9.7分12.2篮板1.7助攻1.4抢断2.4盖帽，得到了30.13%的选票。

Bowen averaged 8.2 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game, and got 17.13% of the votes.

李磊场均20.5分5.8篮板4.7助攻2.6抢断1.9盖帽，得到了13.42%的选票。

Marcus Camby 10.3%.

Tim Duncan 7.2%.

……

In the end, Big Ben won the third best defensive player of his career.

Most Valuable Player (MVP).

This is also the most important honor in the regular season. Considering player statistics, team records, and star stories...the only two most promising players are O'Neal and Nash.

纳什场均15.5分3.3篮板11.5助攻1抢断，带领太阳队打出62胜20负的战绩，名列联盟第二。

Moreover, Nash shot 50.2% from the field, 43.1% from three-pointers, and 88.7% from free throws... The sum of the three items exceeded 180%.

奥尼尔场均22.9分10.4篮板2.7助攻2.3盖帽，带领热火队打出NBA历史第一战绩76胜6负。

O'Neal shot 60.1 percent from the field and 46.1 percent from the free throw line.

And the two had the same experience, both were abandoned by the original team, went to the new team, and transformed the new team in one season.

Nash's disadvantage is that the team's record is much worse.

O'Neal's problem is that the Heat are a three-core team, and Li Lei and Wade will also share part of his influence.

In short, there is nothing wrong with letting anyone be the MVP.

In the end, O'Neal got 33.13% of the votes, beating Nash with 32.28%, and won the MVP trophy.

This is also the second regular season MVP of O'Neal's career.

This year has been another bumper year for the Heat.

Riley: Best head coach + best general manager.

O'Neal: A team + MVP + All-Star starter.

Wade: Second team + second defense + All-Star starter.

Li Lei: Three teams + first defense + three-pointer contest champion + All-Star MVP + All-Star starter.

……

And the worst is the Suns.

Fans have a feeling that all the honors of the Suns have been taken away by the Heat, from the best head coach, the best general manager, to the MVP.

4 month 26 day.

O'Neal lifts the MVP trophy at the American Airlines Center.

Subsequently, the second game between the Heat and the 76ers began.

Before the game, the 76ers still expressed strong confidence.

Coach Jim O'Brien said in an interview before the game: "In fact, we only lost 6 points in the first game. Even most of the time, we were in the lead. So, we have great hopes to win G2."

"And if we win G2, we will have home court advantage, which is good for the entire series."

Pat Riley also responded later, and his answer was very modest: "Yes, the 76ers are a good team. They caused us a lot of trouble in the last game."

But back in the locker room, Riley exploded.

"If you lose this one, you'll be waiting for 1000 suicides (suicide switchbacks)."

Drip!

As the whistle sounded, G2 officially started.

Dalembert beat O'Neal in the jump ball and turned the ball to his own half.

Iguodala advances with the ball.

Jones Sr. stared at Iguodala and suddenly turned to confrontation.

The immature Iguodala chose to pass the ball in a panic, but made a mistake in his busy schedule.

Wade rushed out like lightning, intercepted halfway, and snatched the basketball.

Iguodala pounced on Wade, trying to get the ball back.

Wade unhurriedly passed the ball to the old Jones, and the old Jones went to the frontcourt and scored an easy layup.

2: 0.

The 76ers attack.

Iverson broke through through Webber's screen.

Haslem decisively switched defenses and blocked Iverson.

Iverson turned around and got rid of Haslem, and continued to rush in.

Li Lei rushed forward to defend.

Iverson stepped up directly and shot against Li Lei.

Bang!

The difficulty of the ball was a bit high, Li Lei gave enough confrontation, and finally the shot missed

But Iverson caused Li Lei's thug foul.

He went to the free-throw line and hit the first free throw out of the basket.

Li Lei's confrontation still affected Iverson's breath and rhythm.

However, for the second free throw, Iverson took a longer time to adjust, and finally made the free throw steadily.

2: 1.

The Heat attack.

The 76ers retreated quickly and set up their defensive formation early.

Wade advanced unhurriedly, watching the opponent's defense while advancing.

The Heat are not afraid of positional warfare.

After all, the team has O'Neal, a low-post killer, a group of shooters, and Wade, a breakthrough player... very suitable for positional warfare.

Wade lobs the ball to O'Neal in the low post.

O'Neill lowered his center of gravity and burrowed in against Dalembert.

Dalembert couldn't bear it at all, and retreated steadily.

Seeing this, Weber immediately rushed forward to help defend.

O'Neal has rich experience. He held the basketball high to avoid Webber's pressing for the first time, and then distributed the ball to Haslem.

Andre Iguodala rushed to defend Haslem.

Haslem quickly distributed the ball to the old Jones who was ambushing in the bottom corner.

Old Jones catches the ball, adjusts it, and then shoots.

The basketball crossed a parabola, piercing the heart with an arrow.

Swish!
5: 1.

Pat Riley on the sidelines smiled.

The last game was so difficult, firstly because of the explosion of Iverson and Webber, but because of the poor state of the team's role players.

But in this game, Old Jones hit a three-pointer at the beginning, which seemed to feel good.

If the role players have played well, this game will be easy to play.

The 76ers attack.

The ball was turned around and missed a chance, and it was finally given to Iverson.

Iverson broke through to attract the defense and passed the ball to Webber.

Weber plunged further in.

Li Lei rushed forward to defend, and Weber relied on his height to directly lean against Li Lei, turned around and threw a shot.

Snapped!
At this moment, a huge palm slapped over.

"Shark" O'Neill.

Although Li Lei couldn't defend against Weber, he was delayed, allowing O'Neal enough time to come over to help defend.

Li Lei grabbed the basketball and went to Wade immediately.

Wade took the lead and scored a layup in the frontcourt.

7: 1.
