Chapter 364 Regular Season MVP
Then came the All-Defensive Team.

All-Defensive First Team:

Marcus Camby, Tim Duncan, Li Lei, Kobe Bryant, Lagabell.

All-Defensive Second Team:
Ben Wallace, Kevin Garnett, Bruce Bowen, Tayshaun Prince, Jason Kidd.

Finally, there are the most important individual players, the regular season MVP and the best defensive player.

Let's talk about the regular season MVP first.

With 35% of the votes, Li Lei surpassed Nowitzki with 28% and became the MVP of the 2006-2007 season.

It seems that the Mavericks' poor performance in the playoffs still affected Nowitzki.

Originally, Li Lei and Nowitzki were almost neck and neck in the MVP competition.

But now, Li Lei has 7% more votes than Nowitzki.

At 22, Li Lei also became the youngest regular season MVP in NBA history.

The best defensive player was won by Marcus Camby of the Nuggets.

To sum it up, Li Lei won the All-Star ticket champion, starter, scoring champion, steals champion, best team first team, best defensive first team, and regular season MVP this season.

There is no doubt that Li Lei is the most shining star this season.

Some people even said that this is Li Lei's season.

As soon as the honor was released, Li Lei received a call from Bill Duffy. He was very excited on the phone and congratulated Li Lei.

"Stone, I knew you could! You're the best! You're going to be the best!"

Duffy now recalls that when he signed Li Lei, it was for Yao Ming's sake.

Of course, Duffy himself also thinks that Li Lei has a future.It's just that he never imagined that Li Lei's future is so good that he can become the MVP of the regular season at the age of 22.

Originally, according to Duffy's prediction, Li Lei would be the third leader of the team, and if he was more powerful, he would be the team's second child.

As for the MVP, he didn't even dare to think about it.

What is the concept of MVP, the player who played the best this season.

Subsequently, Li Lei received a call from David Stern, the president of the league.

"Little guy, you made the smartest choice in the summer, and you deserve it. Keep going, and you will get more honors. I believe in you, and you will be one of the faces of the NBA in the future."

With the rise of Li Lei, the ball market in Memphis is also rising, and the influence of the NBA in China is also growing.

So David Stern has made up his mind to support Li Lei vigorously and make him a new face of the NBA.

Of course, Stern did this with a purpose, not with good intentions.

One is that it can drive Memphis, even the entire Tennessee, and the ball market along the Mississippi River.

The second is to vigorously promote the NBA's global promotion strategy, which is also Stern's lifelong expectation.

In recent years, there has been an influx of Chinese players into the NBA, such as Wang Zhizhi, Battelle, Yao Ming, Li Lei, Yi Jianlian, Zhu Fangyu...

But there is no doubt that Li Lei is the most powerful one, and also the one with the greatest influence in the NBA and the Chinese basketball world.

Immediately afterwards, Li Lei received a call from team owner Michael Heisley and general manager Jerry West.

"Stone, we knew we made the right choice."

"I feel so too!"

Li Lei said confidently.

Hahaha!
The three of them laughed on the phone.

Ordinary players, how dare they talk to their bosses and managers like that.

After all, the boss is the employer, and the players are paid by the boss.

But when you are strong enough, you will naturally have privileges.

For example, Michael Jordan, with his venomous tongue, he likes to hurt the general manager of the Bulls at the time, and he doesn't get along with the boss, but whoever dares to say that he is wrong.

Now, Li Lei is far from reaching Jordan's level, but Heisley and West have treated him equally.

Everyone knows that Li Lei is no longer an ordinary player, no!He is no longer an ordinary superstar.

After that, more and more people called to congratulate Li Lei.

The leaders and teammates of the Chinese men's basketball team, Li Yuanwei, Faye Wong, Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, Li Nan...

Former teammates Alston, White Chocolate, Haslem, O'Neal, Odom, Caron Butler, Walker, Damon Jones, Kapono...

Li Lei's family members are Li's father, Li's mother, and his lover Avril Lavigne.

……

Li Lei himself also sent a message in the 03 group: "Dwyane, LeBron, Cameron, sorry, I'm one step ahead of you.

You guys are working hard, I look back now, and I can't even see your figure! "

James immediately responded: "What's so arrogant, it's not just an MVP, I will get it sooner or later, and it's not just one, but two, three, four..."

Anthony: "I'm sorry, I have reserved the regular season MVP for next season. Whoever dares to grab me, I will cut him off."

Wade: "Then you guys compete for the MVP of the regular season. The Russell Cup (Finals MVP) belongs to me."

There was another commotion among the four of them in the group.

……

After Li Lei's request, David Stern flew to Salt Lake City in person to present the regular season MVP trophy to Li Lei before the start of the fourth game.

Despite being enemies, Salt Lake fans applauded.

Of course, there were also many enthusiastic Salt Lake City fans booing Li Lei.

Jazz bench, Deron Williams staring at the trophy, reluctant to part, obviously greedy.

Deron clenched his fists and made a secret effort: MVP, he wants it too.

Li Lei also saw the white uncle who was making trouble in the hotel.

Li Lei deliberately walked up to him: "Uncle, do you want to touch the MVP trophy... Hey, I won't give it."

Just when the white man believed it was true, Li Lei suddenly took it back.

snort!
The white man was trembling with anger.

"Tonight, you're going to keep losing."

Li Lei said indifferently: "Then you have to work harder and cheer for the Jazz!"

Tonight is one of the most important days for Li Lei.

Li's father, Li's mother, and Avril Lavigne also came to the scene.

Li Lei kissed the trophy and handed it to them, winning applause.

The acceptance speech is still old-fashioned: "Thanks to my teammates. This trophy belongs not only to me, but also to everyone. We are a whole. This is everyone's affirmation of the Grizzlies. Thank you everyone... Thanks to the coach, no With his guidance, it is impossible for me to improve so fast...Thanks to my family, you are my motivation and the source of all my efforts..."

When Li Lei first found out that he had become the MVP, he was quite excited.

But now, Li Lei didn't feel anything.

However, the Grizzlies team is very excited and their morale is boosted.

This is why Li Lei invited Stern to the scene.

After the awards ceremony, the match will begin soon, and the two sides are still familiar lineups.

Grizzlies:
Milicic, Gasol, Li Lei, Jones Sr., Lu.

Jazz:
Okur, Boozer, Kirilenko, Fisher, Deron.
