Chapter 202 202. Regular Season Honors Announced

With the completion of the three semi-final games, the honors of the regular season of the 06-07 season were released.

In terms of the best lineup, the Timberwolves have four players selected this season, among which Iverson, Artest and Ben Wallace joined forces to enter the first team.

This is also the first time that Artest and Ben Wallace have been selected to the first team in their careers. The peak seasons of the two were selected to the best third team and the best second team respectively.

The excellent overall strength of the Timberwolves this season has won a lot of votes for the two, and finally ranked out the "little bully" Stoudemire and Tim Duncan with a small number of votes.

As for the last player, Gerald Wallace was selected to the best third team.

It is worth mentioning that this is the first major honor that Gerald Wallace has gained in his career.

The best lineup can be regarded as the most gold-rich lineup selection in the NBA. Many stars have been selected to the All-Star many times in their careers, and they have not been selected to the best team until they retire. This is the authority of the best team in the NBA.

In addition to the three Timberwolves in the best team, the other two players are Steve Nash and Dirk Nowitzki, who led the Mavericks to the league's first.

As for scoring 31.6 points in the season, Kobe Bryant, who ranks second in the league, can only rank second because of the team's record.

Kobe's personal performance this season can be called a blast, but if the Lakers can enter the playoffs, even if they are ranked eighth in the Western Conference, Kobe must have a place in the best team.

It's a pity that the selection of the best team is not only based on the personal data of the players, but is calculated based on two aspects: personal performance and team record.

NBA history is not without precedents in which a team did not enter the playoffs, but a player entered the best team, but such cases are rare after all, and it is extremely rare to look at the entire history.

The last player whose team did not enter the playoffs but entered the best team personally dates back to Charles Barkley in the 87-88 season.

That season, the Philadelphia 76ers only scored 36 wins and missed the playoffs, but Barkley averaged 28.3 points and 11.9 rebounds per game and made it to the first team.

However, Barkley's selection is only a small probability. Failure to lead the team into the playoffs will have a great impact on the selection of the best team. The league has its own set of calculation formulas.

In terms of the best second team, the five selected are "General" Arenas, Kobe Bryant, Stoudemire, Duncan and Yao Ming.

The best three teams include Wade, Anthony, Gerald Wallace, James, and Howard.

As for Kevin Garnett, he was disqualified from the election because he missed too many games, otherwise Garnett must have a seat in the best team.

This year's selection of the best team can be called a fight between gods, even better than last season.

Like the "Dragon King" Bosh, who averaged 22.6 points, 10.9 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.3 blocks per game, he had no choice but to lose.

You must know that Chris Bosh not only has excellent personal statistics this season, but also led the Raptors to the top four in the Eastern Conference in terms of team record.

However, the frontcourt competition of this year's best team is too fierce. Even if Chris Bosh's performance is so explosive, he can only be defeated in the end. It is still far away from being selected to the best team for the first time in his career.

Chauncey Billups, who is still stable in the league's backcourt, also lost the election again.

Although Billups averaged only 17 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists per game, Billups' contribution to the Pistons is obvious, both offensive and defensive ends have played at the league's top level.

It's a pity that this year's backcourt competition is too fierce. Even Wade, who was selected to the best third team, can average 26.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 6.8 assists and 2.2 steals per game.

In contrast, Billups has no advantages other than stability, and can only be gradually forgotten by fans.

After the release of the best team this year, the biggest objection from the outside world is not that Artest was selected for the first team, nor was Gerald Wallace selected for the third team. After all, these two players have performed very well, whether it is personal data or the team. The record can convince the fans.

What really dissatisfied the fans was that the blue-collar center Ben Wallace was able to overwhelm Tim Duncan and "The Bully" Stoudemire for a while.

This made fans of the two stars very dissatisfied, and began to complain online that the league's selection of the best team was unfair.

本华莱士所获得的战绩加持太过明显，否则大本本赛季场均7.3分14.6篮板3.1助攻1.8抢断以及2.9次封盖的数据固然出色，可能同时力压场均20+10的邓肯与斯塔德迈尔两人还是难以服众。

However, after the best team is released every year, it will bring a lot of controversy, and the league has long been accustomed to this.

In particular, the playing style of a blue-collar center like Ben Wallace is not good-looking at all. There are very few die-hard fans. Being selected for a team will inevitably bring a lot of doubts and criticisms.

At least Timberwolves coach Luke is very aware of Ben Wallace's defensive contribution to the team.

In the case of Kevin Garnett's reimbursement for the season, Ben Wallace can be said to have supported the defense of the penalty area alone, otherwise the Timberwolves' defensive efficiency this season would not be so strong.

Ben's contribution to the team cannot be reflected by the statistics. The data of a blue-collar center like Ben who does not occupy the ball is bound to be unattractive.

Use the facts to tell everyone that as long as you dare to fight on the court, even a blue-collar can become the best in the league.

Needless to say, the next best defensive team, if not for Kevin Garnett's reimbursement for the season, this year's best defensive team will be occupied by Timberwolves players.

The five players selected for the best defensive team this year are: "Glove" Payton, Kobe Bryant, Gerald Wallace, Artest, and Ben Wallace.

Except for Kobe, the other four players are all from the Timberwolves, which can be called a great feat in the league.

Even so, the outside world can't find too many problems. This year's Timberwolves can't find any problems on the defensive end. No matter who they are, they must give the Timberwolves a thumbs up for their defense.

As for the best defensive second team, they are: Jason Kidd, Lagabel, "Little Prince" Prince, Duncan, and Marcus Camby.

Although all of them are defensive elites, they are obviously worse than a team.

Especially the gap between Marcus Camby and Ben Wallace, which has been vividly demonstrated in the semifinals between the Timberwolves and the Nuggets.

If someone says that Marcus Camby's defense is the same as Ben Wallace, I believe the fans will spit shit out.

Unlike the best team, the best defensive team only has two teams, and only ten players can be selected each year.
