600. MVP Battle Prologue
Sun Ce himself doesn't have much self-awareness. He can see his B+ level ability evaluation every day, and he has just been promoted to B+ level. He knows how much he weighs.
But the superstars who wanted to win the MVP regarded him as a competitor, but he didn't think that way.
Averaged 18.4 points, 11.7 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 3.4 blocks, and 1.3 steals per game... Regardless of whether he relies on the abilities of his teammates or not, Sun Ce has won the respect of his opponents with such a good performance.
Rose's goal is the MVP. He wants to slap the faces of those who mock him for not wanting to recruit James!
This time the league officials took the lead in making things happen, which in Rose's mind means that the competition for MVP has begun!
…
Although there is a lot of pressure to help Sun Ce compete for the regular season MVP and the pressure of record, but in terms of tension, being messed up by Randolph really reduced the tension a lot.
Even if they saw the alliance officials taking the lead in making trouble, their nervousness was not that great.
The Grizzlies players practiced more actively and focused in the afternoon training due to the increased pressure.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Sun Ce and the band members went to their exclusive recording studio to rehearse collectively.
The music score of the chorus song had been given to each member before, and everyone practiced it when they had time, and the joint practice went smoothly.
Yi Jianlian's life is very fulfilling now. He wakes up every morning to practice musical instruments and harass the neighbors. He goes to the arena for personal training in the morning. There are usually games or team training in the afternoons. He practices musical instruments in the evening. Recently, he has to get his hair done...
No, there are new things to be busy with. Randolph and Sun Ce want him to play solo. Yi Jianlian feels that he is really happier playing now than before. He can win games, his contract extension is about to be obtained, and he can still have a lot of opportunities. life outside.
Although, many things are passively accepted, but once he accepted the setting of blowing the suona against the cherry wood, Yi Jianlian felt so good...
The only sad thing about Yi Jianlian is that his instrument was disliked. In the song that the team performed together, his role changed from instrumental ensemble to vocal harmony. When his teammates sang solo, his instrument was not able to join in. When I went in, I lost my accompanist qualification, but I was still responsible for the harmony.
After the joint practice, everyone was thinking about their solos alone. Yi Jianlian was the most special. In order to make up for his inability to play instruments together, Randolph arranged a solo and a solo for him.
Sun Ce already had experience in accompanying his teammates last year. During this year, when he was tired from training, his head was swollen from studying playing methods, etc., he would occasionally practice playing the erhu. , no big problem.
As for each person singing a song solo, Sun Ce thought that they could just choose a Chinese song to sing. Anyway, the singing level was shocking and ordinary people couldn't accept it, so it didn't matter what they sang, just for fun.
He is now holding his erhu, looking at the new events, and starting to think about what will happen next this season.
Take another look at the new events triggered in the morning.
"Because the host and Derrick Rose have inevitably come to opposite sides, the S-level event: Attack of the Bullies has officially begun. The host's ultimate goal in the regular season this season: to win the regular season MVP.
The first phase event has been triggered: MVP battle prologue. "
"Prelude to the MVP battle:
Goal 1: The host needs to help the team defeat the opponent in the next game against the Bulls.
Goal 2: The hosts need to score higher than Derrick Rose in the next game against the Bulls.
Event reward: Mysterious fragment*1.
Note: Events at this stage will affect the final score of the Battle for NBA series of events. "
This incident, Sun Ce remembers, was triggered when he was ranked tenth in the league by ESPN before the season and was disliked by fans and experts. Previously, there was only one player who had achieved the goal of becoming a recognized top thirty player in the league this season.
The description of this event said "Battle for NBA Series Events". Sun Ce had long expected that he would not be able to complete an S-level event simply by ranking in the top 30.
Sure enough, a new event came.
I don’t know how I got to this point, but there is only one way to reach the end.
To compete with Rose for the MVP... Sun Ce feels like his brain is hurting. This is a man who can overpower Howard, who was at his peak year, to win the regular season MVP. In other words, his opponent is not only Rose, but also Howard!
Maybe Kobe, James, Durant.
Since Rose won the regular season MVP in his third year and set a new record for the youngest MVP, Sun Ce is still impressed by some things in this season. This season is a rare season where the top five players in the MVP vote = first-team players.
Putting the other four opponents aside for now, if you want to compete with Rose for MVP, then a direct game with Rose is particularly important!
Just like the 2007-2008 season, which was the most suspenseful season in Sun Ce's memory, Kobe and Paul were anxious about the MVP rankings before entering April, taking turns taking turns. However, when the two faced off against each other for the last time, Kobe got 29. He scored 10 rebounds and 8 assists, and shot 52% from the field. At the same time, he prevented Paul from shooting 4 of 13 and only shot 30% from the field, and he won.
This game played a decisive role in Kobe defeating Paul to win the regular season MVP. Firstly, Kobe performed significantly better than Paul when the two played directly against each other. Secondly, the final record of the regular season that year was that the Lakers were better than the Hornets. One win, and the one with more wins is to kill the Hornets, making the MVP award seem logical.
MVP...
Although Sun Ce had never thought about it, when the opportunity was presented to him, the team supported him, and the league took the lead in making things happen...
Although it is possible to become the devil this time and not be ready, who doesn't want to be the MVP?
I was already full of expectations for tomorrow's game, but now Sun Ce's desire to win is even stronger!
…
…
December 16th is the game day between the Grizzlies and Bulls.
Sun Ce woke up after a good night's sleep and felt that things were not that bad. If he competed for MVP, he would be remembered in NBA history. He could also retire in place and enter the Hall of Fame. Maybe it would become even more legendary.
Even if you don't win, you will at most be laughed at by those anti-fans and all biased fans.
No matter what, it's better to compete than to have nothing to do with the MVP.
As usual, he exercised his physical fitness by running in the morning. As the season progressed, Sun Ce clearly felt that his physical strength was getting better day by day.
Unlike others, he does not have a decline in physical reserves as the season progresses. Most of the main NBA players, if they can maintain their physical condition from the beginning to the end of the season, can actually be regarded as improving in physical fitness, game after game. With fatigue accumulating from every game, if you can still maintain your physical condition at the beginning of the season, it will actually be considered an improvement, but the media, fans, and perhaps the players themselves don't have that concept.
But Sun Ce intuitively felt that his physical fitness had improved.
It may be difficult to upgrade from A-level endurance to A-level. The higher the system evaluation level, the harder it is to improve, but Sun Ce feels that it has definitely improved a lot compared to when he first upgraded to A-level endurance.
This is the result of persistent training over time.
After breakfast, Sun Ce came to the arena to continue preparing for tonight's game against the Bulls.
The training intensity arranged by the Grizzlies today is relatively light. It is just an offensive tactical movement training session for the Bulls' defense and a defensive training session for the Bulls' offense.
After the morning training and lunch, Coach Hollins asked the players to find their own place to rest.
Sun Ce VS Rose, although the duel between the two at the beginning of the season was not as eye-catching as it is now, it was already a very attractive and highly watched game at that time. The league arranged the game relatively late, starting at 7 o'clock in the evening. It must be coordinated with the live broadcast time of Chaoting Channel.
Some players went home to rest, but Sun Ce stayed in the lounge of the training ground, studying Rose's game this season to the sound of Yi Jianlian practicing the suona in the direction of the training ground under Randolph's supervision.
Nothing special. Rose's style of play is simple and rough. He has quick bursts, great changes of direction, a well-trained mid-range shot, good overall view of passing, and good teamwork. These are Rose's major advantages this season.
After studying several games in which Rose played well this season, Sun Ce watched the news while taking a break.
Sure enough, one day passed, and on the day of the game between the Grizzlies and Bulls, the topic of "who is the MVP" created by the league was heated up.
Several other MVP contenders were also implicated.
Except for Sun and Rose, several other MVP candidates recognized by fans and media have similar ideas to him.
Howard, Kobe, Durant, and James are regarded as favorites.
In addition to these four, Paul and Stoudemire are both regarded as MVP candidates. What surprises Sun Ce most is that Roy is also an MVP candidate.
Looking at Roy's face, he doesn't really look like a good person, but he is highly regarded by the media and fans.
These MVP favorites all responded to the league's strong support for the Sun Ce VS Rose showdown.
Reporters blocked the door, and some even refused to answer questions.
James' answer revealed his social butterfly instinct as always: "Noah and Derrick deserve MVP. They should have been MVP contenders. Their data and team performance are so good... Stealing my MVP? No, no, no, Our current record is so bad, I definitely want to win the MVP, but I still need to work hard, my biggest opponent is them, there is no grabbing or not grabbing."
James has answered very well, but the comment area under the news is still down. No matter what he says, he is receiving a lot of scolding at this stage.
What Sun Ce didn't expect was Kobe's interview.
"I love the Bulls, you all know, I love the Bulls, Derrick has the ability to restore the Bulls dynasty, if he wins the MVP, I may become his fan.
Noah is great. Look at his statistics and performance on the court. For such a young talent with Mamba mentality, if he wins the MVP, I will support him with both hands. "
