Chapter 298 298. Regular season awards announced!League No.1!A legend in the coaching world!Nelson Sr.: "He's God

In the third game of the series, the Grizzlies beat the Spurs by 67 points in an away game, which shocked the outside world.

As early as a few days ago, the Grizzlies beat the San Antonio Spurs by 61 points in the first round of the semifinals, setting a record for the largest difference in the playoffs.

Before the fans could recover from the shock of the previous record, the Grizzlies broke the record again after a game, raising the maximum point difference in the playoffs to 67 points.

The dominance shown by the Grizzlies surprised outside fans, especially the fact that the two teams with the largest point difference in the playoffs were the Spurs, a veteran team that had entered the playoffs for many years in a row. This huge contrast The fans couldn't believe it.

This season, the Grizzlies played the best record of 76 wins and 6 losses in the regular season, which is enough to prove how strong the Grizzlies are this season.

But after entering the playoffs, the young Grizzlies not only did not fall into a struggle, but played two rounds of the series in an unexpected free and easy manner. This momentum even the famous mouth Charles Barkley called it crazy.

In the history of the league, fans have witnessed too many teams that blew up youth storms, but no team can compare with the Grizzlies this season.

The Grizzlies easily swept the Suns 4-0 in the first round of the playoffs, and entered the second round. Facing the San Antonio Spurs, a traditional strong team that has made the playoffs for many years in a row, the Grizzlies not only did not show the slightest bit of fatigue, but instead had two consecutive Hit the largest score difference in history.

The strength shown by the Grizzlies makes fans have to think about whether there is really a team that can compete with the Grizzlies this season.

With the end of the third game of the semifinals, the Grizzlies are now leading the Spurs 3:0, firmly grasping the match point.

Next, as long as the Grizzlies win another game, they can sweep the Spurs and advance to the Western Conference Finals. In terms of probability, it is only a matter of time before the Grizzlies advance to the Western Conference Finals, and the chances of the Spurs making a miracle must be zero.

At present, what fans are most looking forward to is not whether the Spurs can usher in a rebound in Game [-] of the Western Conference Finals and avoid the bad luck of being swept out by the Grizzlies.

What fans are most looking forward to is what kind of performance the Grizzlies can play in the fourth game, and whether they can break the biggest point difference in the playoffs again, making this round of the series even more crazy.

It is worth mentioning that the trend of another matchup in the Western Conference semifinals also exceeded the expectations of fans.

The los angeles lakers , ranked second in the west , and the portland trailblazers , ranked third in the west , are currently tied 1:1

Judging from the overall process of these two games, the Blazers' efficiency in this round of the series is better than that of the Los Angeles Lakers.

Although the head star Brandon Roy regretted being at a disadvantage in the matchup with Kobe Bryant, Aldridge and Oden brought a lot of help to Roy.

In particular, Greg Oden, who has already been crowned as a parallel importer in the regular season, ushered in an explosion in this round of semifinals.

Facing the defense of "Polish Hammer" Gortat, Oden averaged 17 points, 9 rebounds and 2 blocked shots in two games, proving to the outside world that he is not a parallel importer.

In the first game of the semifinals, the Lakers narrowly beat the Trail Blazers by 39 points after Kobe scored [-] points, and won the first victory in the semifinals with difficulty.

However, the Trail Blazers in the second away game of the series ushered in a rebound under the leadership of head coach McMillan, and finally beat the Lakers by 16 points in the away game, rewriting the total score of the series to 1:1.

The next two matchups against the Trail Blazers will bring the game back to the home court. For the Lakers who are already at a disadvantage in this round of the series, this period of time must be difficult.

Like this series between the Grizzlies and the Spurs, no one thought that the young Trail Blazers would play such a strong game in the playoffs.

The performance of the two youth teams, the Blazers and the Grizzlies, has made the outside world seriously doubt whether they are really old. They have been unable to keep up with the rapid development of the times, and their thinking is still stuck in the era when Jiang was still old and spicy.

At present, the league has completely belonged to young people. Whether it is the Grizzlies or the Trail Blazers, the core players of these two teams are generally in their 20s.

As a result, in the playoffs, he played the sophistication that can only be seen in veterans, and the determination that can only be reflected in stars.

According to the current momentum, if the Lakers cannot regain the initiative in the next two games, the Blazers are likely to reach the conference finals all the way as a dark horse and meet the Grizzlies who have already led the Spurs 3:0.

At that time, the two youngest playoff teams in the league will inevitably rewrite the league structure, making it increasingly difficult for veteran players on the verge of retirement to survive.

…………

With the completion of the three semi-final games, the league announced the honors of the regular season this season the next day.

The best lineup of the [-]-[-] season was released first. In terms of the best lineup, the Grizzlies have a total of four players selected this season.

Among them, Chris Paul, Kevin Martin and Pau Gasol were selected to the best team, and starting center Marc Gasol was selected to the best second team.

In a single season, four members of the team were selected to the best team at the same time. Looking at the entire history, this configuration is also considered luxurious.

The reason why Artest was not selected to the best team is that the competition for the remaining places this season is too fierce.

Otherwise, according to the selection criteria of previous years, even Zach Randolph on the bench is fully capable of running for the best third team.

However, even Tim Duncan, Brandon Roy, and Carmelo Anthony will be selected for this year's best three teams. In terms of influence, it is always a little bit worse.

In addition to the Grizzlies three, the other two players selected to the best team this year are LeBron James and Dwight Howard.

The personal statistics of these two players this season are very good, and the team ranking is also very impressive. If it is not for the Grizzlies' influence is too strong, James and Howard even have the opportunity to become the regular season MVP of this season.

But now it seems that the regular season MVP of this season will inevitably be produced in the Grizzlies. Whether Chris Paul is elected, Kevin and Martin are reelected, or Pau Gasol wins this award, the outside world will not feel Accident.

But if the regular season MVP is not a Grizzlies player, the outside world will definitely think that this is a black box operation.

In terms of the best second team, the five selected are: Wade, Kobe, Pierce, Nowitzki and Marc Gasol.

Kobe Bryant's team record ranks second in the Western Conference this season, and his personal data is able to hand over 27 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, but he can still only rank second. This seems a bit aggrieved to Kobe fans.

However, thinking of the Grizzlies' 76-6 record in the regular season and Kevin Martin's personal performance, it seems that Kobe can only be selected for the best second team. It seems not so unacceptable.

To say that it is Paul Pierce who is really frustrated is definitely the guy. While the team has the best record in the Eastern Conference and the second record in the league, Paul Pierce is not only the only Celtics player selected to the best team this season, Today, even being selected for the best second team has been questioned by the outside world.

Fans questioned that the Celtics' ability to achieve such a good record this season with the Big Five was completely expected, and Paul Pierce, as a group player, did not deserve to appear in the best second team.

At least when Paul Pierce and Kobe Bryant appeared together on the list of the best second team, most fans thought that Paul Pierce's selection was a kind of blasphemy against Kobe.

If you really want to send Paul Pierce to the best team, then the best third team is where Pierce should go.

In terms of the best three teams, the five selected this season are: Parker, Roy, Anthony, Duncan and Yao Ming.

If you only look at the list of the best three teams, fans will definitely be shocked. Even Brandon Roy and Tim Duncan, who led the team to play an outstanding record, can only rank in the third team. How fierce is the competition in the lineup?

After all, the fundamental reason for the tightness of the best lineup is that the record of the Grizzlies is too terrifying, which makes fans think that the position of some stars is too low.

But the NBA's criteria for selecting the best team has always been the same, and both personal data and team record are indispensable.

Fans can only sigh from the bottom of their hearts for Kobe Bryant once again missed the regular season MVP.

In addition, in the best defensive lineup released by the league, the Grizzlies have a total of three players selected this season.

And all three were selected to the best defensive team, tying the NBA historical record created by the Minnesota Timberwolves at the beginning, and becoming one of the teams with the largest number of teams selected to the best defensive team at the same time in the history of the league.

The three Grizzlies players selected to the best defensive team in the [-]-[-] season are: Chris Paul, Artest and Marc Gasol.

Among them, Marc Gasol is likely to overwhelm Howard and Garnett for the first time in their careers to win the best defensive player.

After all, when Marc Gasol was on the court this season, the Grizzlies lost an average of 11.4 points per [-] possessions. This data is slightly higher than Howard's Magic, and Garnett's Celtics ranked first in the league. .

From a comprehensive point of view, Marc Gasol is undoubtedly the first step in the campaign for the best defensive player, but considering the personal influence of "Warcraft" Howard in the United States, this year's best defensive player is still very suspenseful.

It is worth mentioning that a total of six players were selected for the best defensive team this year.

Under normal circumstances, the best defensive team only has the first team and the second team. Five players are selected for the first team and the second team respectively. Only ten players are selected for the season.

However, there have been many precedents in NBA history where 11 players were selected to the best defensive team.

Since a certain player's defensive efficiency is very impressive that season, the best defensive team is selected according to the three positions of defender, forward and center.

This can also easily lead to a certain player who has an amazing defensive efficiency, but can only enter the second team because of insufficient places, and become the focus of crazy complaints from fans.

In order to prevent this from happening, the league occasionally arranges six players to be selected to the best defensive team in a certain season.

And this season, "Warcraft" Howard is the sixth first-team player to share the center position with Marc Gasol.

Just like in the [-]-[-] season, Jazz player Kirilenko, with his amazing defensive efficiency, abruptly entered the best defensive team, becoming the third striker to be shortlisted in the season after Artest and Bruce Bowen.

In this regard, Howard's exceptional selection this season did not surprise the outside world. After all, Howard this season is fully capable of competing for the best defensive player.

Howard and Marc Gasol, no matter who fails to make the best defensive first team, will make the league's selection a joke.

In desperation, the league can only add one more center position, and both Marc Gasol and Howard will be included in the best defensive team.

In terms of the best rookie, the champion Lang Derrick Rose was successfully elected against many of the favorites of the sky. There is no objection to the election of Derrick Rose.

After all, Rose's rookie season not only played good personal data, but also led the Bulls back to the playoffs after a few years.

Grizzlies rookie Roy Hibbert ranks third in the list of best rookies, second only to Derrick Rose and Mayo, and is listed by the media as one of the league's future inside pillars.

In the battle for the best sixth man that fans are looking forward to, Grizzlies player Michael Reid narrowly defeated Jason Terry, who averaged 19.6 points, 2.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game, and was successfully elected.

As for the Grizzlies' other backup champion, Zach Randolph, he was deprived of the qualification for the best sixth man by the league because he played too many starts before joining the Grizzlies.

Otherwise, Zach Randolph's dominance in the second half of the game is definitely more qualified than Michael Reed and Jason Terry.

In terms of the best coach, long before the announcement of the league, fans knew that the best coach of this season would be the man who led the Grizzlies to 76 wins and 6 losses.

If even this record does not qualify for the best coach, then the COY award is a joke.

However, even though the fans had long been prepared for Luke to be elected as the best coach, the outside world was still shocked when the league announced that Luke was successfully elected as the best coach for the [-]-[-] season.

After all, Luke's election this time not only tied the historical record of the "magic operator" Riley and Nelson winning the best coach three times in their careers, but also became the first basketball coach in the league to win the COY award consecutively!
That alone would make Luke a coaching legend!
It is far more difficult for a basketball coach to win the best coach for two consecutive years than the regular season MVP.

However, after Luke entered the league, it only took five short years to tie the historical record held by Nelson and Riley, becoming the third basketball coach in NBA history to achieve this achievement. This speed is as exciting as riding a rocket. people shocked.

Considering that Luke is only 39 years old, fans can no longer imagine how many historical records Luke will maintain to make future generations despair when he retires.

When he learned that Luke was once again elected as the best coach in the league this season, Warriors head coach Nelson immediately sent his blessings, and said helplessly when facing the camera:

"The word genius is no longer enough to describe Luke. This guy is a freak. If there is a God in the coaching world, then I think this role must belong to him!"

　I have something to go out today, so I will take a little less, and see what time I come back in the evening. If I come back early, I can write a chapter, and if I come back later, I may not have it.
