Chapter 683 [No Impression, I’m Used to It]

The major NBA regular season awards have been announced one after another.

Blake Griffin successfully won the Rookie of the Year, averaging 35.8 minutes per game, scoring 20.7 points, 10.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 0.8 steals, and 0.5 blocks. He shot 52.9% from the field, 25.4% from three-point range, and 64.2 from the free throw line. %.

Even LeBron James' efficiency in his rookie season cannot be compared with Griffin. He was unanimously elected as the Rookie of the Year, ranked third in the regular season MVP rankings, and seventh in the league in efficiency value. His performance was amazing. . You know, Kobe's efficiency rating ranked 11th in the league this season.

Stephen Curry won the Sixth Man of the Year award. He played 28.5 minutes and scored 18 points, 3.5 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.4 steals. He shot 48% from the field, 43.5% from three-point range and 90% from free throws.

Curry almost entered the 50+40+90 club. He was the player who shot the most three-pointers throughout the season, averaging 3 three-pointers per game. The second-ranked Warriors swingman Dorell Wright only averaged 2.4 per game. , Korver's shooting percentage remained stable in the second half, and he shot less, averaging only 2.2 goals per game.

At this time, the Bucks management was so regretful that Wesley Johnson, who was exchanged for Curry, averaged 27.4 minutes per game and could only get 9.3 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.7 steals, and 0.7 blocks, and he made a field goal. The shooting percentage was 39.7%, the three-point shooting percentage was 35.6%, and the free throw percentage was only 70.3%.

Wesley is the kind of player who knows everything but is good at nothing, and is difficult to position on the court.

Monta Ellis has publicly expressed his dissatisfaction and disdain for Curry, but now he has been slapped hard in the face. He did have a swingman partner who could defend, but the team did not become stronger because of it.

Experts have given Curry high marks this season, believing that he is better than Ellis and has a higher scoring efficiency. Ellis plays like Kobe, and not many people think Kobe is the true core who is good at leading the team to win.

Chris Humphries of the Nets won the Most Improved Player Award. He averaged 27.9 minutes per game, scored 10 points, 10.4 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.1 blocks, and shot 52.7% from the field.

Yao Ming was injured and Humphries got more performance opportunities. This award does not depend on the record.

Gay ranked second in the selection, averaging 15.6 points per game. He can play in isolation and doesn't take many shots. He is the fourth offensive option for the Clippers. In Yang Rui's previous life, Gay averaged 38 minutes per game to score about 20 points. The Clippers couldn't let him play like this.

The good news is that Gay, whose playing time was limited, played all 82 games and participated in the playoffs in a 100% healthy state.

The Defensive Player of the Year award was once again won by Dwight Howard of the Magic for the third consecutive year. His data reached the peak of his career, averaging 22.9 points, 14.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.4 steals, and 2.4 blocks in 37.6 minutes per game, while shooting 59.3% from the field.

No inside player's statistics can compare with Howard. After several years of training, he can also play a role on the offensive end.

Relying on his super physical fitness, he can catch the ball and hit hard in the low post, shoot from both sides, and throw the discus from the middle with a hook to ensure a hit rate. The only drawback is that his free throw percentage is still not high, 59.6% is similar to O'Neal back then, and his average of 11.7 free throws per game proves his threat.

Many people with a lower free throw percentage than Howard will not get so many free throw opportunities because they can't make shots in the low post, such as Ben Wallace, DeAndre Jordan, and Biedrins.

Howard has emerged from the shadow of the 2009 Finals defeat and began to take on more tasks. Now everyone says that he is the number one center in the NBA. Even if Yao Ming comes back, he will have to reduce his ball rights because he is older.

All-Defensive First Team: Rajon Rondo, Tony Allen, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett, Dwight Howard.

Second team: Chris Paul, Dwyane Wade, Andre Iguodala, Joakim Noah, Tyson Chandler.

Kobe was not selected for the All-Defensive Team, and the Lakers' overall defense was in a mess. If Kobe was selected again, even for the second team, it would be unreasonable.

Many people online have pointed out that in previous seasons, Iguodala was responsible for defending the core of the opponent's offense, not Kobe.

After Iguodala, Yao Ming, and Millsap left, the Lakers couldn't defend them, because those three were the key to the defense, but the award was taken by Kobe.

Kobe's defensive efficiency is high because he rarely faces stars on the defensive end and is good enough. When Yang Rui was here, the Lakers often played mixed defense and zone defense, using the efficiency of the opponent's No. 2 position to prove that Kobe's defense was good. Reasonable.

Peak Komey immediately released a collection of Kobe's nightmare defense, saying that Kobe was dragged down by his trash teammates and that his defense was top-notch in the league. Unfortunately, not many people believe this.

What can a collection of highlights prove? If you only look for material on defensive success, Nash, who averaged 0.6 steals and 0.1 blocks per game this season, can make a highlight reel. He looks like the incarnation of the steal leader and the block leader.

From joining the Suns to now, Nash has blocked more than 50 shots and made more than 300 steals. It is too easy to find 20 wonderful shots and cut a 10-minute highlight video. You can also return to defense repeatedly in slow motion, showing Nash in an all-round way. Unpredictable defense is so unbelievable.

Editing for Nash is too low-key. If you were to highlight the dunks and blocks of Stromire Swift, the Grizzlies power forward at that time, you would think that he is invincible offensively and defensively, stronger than James, and should be the MVP every year. , in fact, he has not played in 2009.

There is no controversy about the selection of the two Clippers. This year, the Clippers averaged 106.1 points per game, which is not incredible. They only lost 95.5 points per game, which is very good. The Clippers' offensive and defensive rhythm is very fast, and this defensive efficiency is already amazing.

Moreover, the Clippers ranked fifth in the league in limiting their opponents' field goal percentage, 42.8%, while their opponents' three-point shooting percentage was only 33.7%. The two statistics of the Clippers team are 47.8% and 39.8%.

From the data point of view, it is not an accident that the Clippers have the best record in the regular season. They have really achieved a balance of offense and defense. The individual defense capabilities of Paul, Tony Allen, and Gay are crucial. The inside players can protect the frame and grab rebounds. The ability is not bad either.

The MVP, the biggest individual award in the regular season, was won by Paul. For the first time in his career, he was welcomed by everyone. He won two data titles and was second in the league in efficiency, second only to James.

All-NBA First Team: Paul, James, Durant, Griffin, Dwight Howard.

Second team: Westbrook, Kobe, Wade, Nowitzki, Stoudemire.

Third team: Mike Conley, Ginobili, Aldridge, Zach Randolph, Al Horford.

In the second half of the season, Randolph steadily contributed 20+10 and became a double-double machine. In the end, he averaged 20.1 points, 11.5 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game, and shot 50.3% from the field. At this time, people realized that his role was greater than Lopez, because Lopez was not good at rebounding.

Yang Rui was almost unanimously elected as the best coach of the season for the sixth time in his career.

The team has made the greatest progress and has the best record. Taken together, no one can compete with Yang Rui. The Clippers have risen too fast.

Yang Rui gave a speech: "I am the luckiest coach in the world. This team has such outstanding talent. It won the best record in the league just after it was rebuilt. It is entirely possible to hit the best record in the history of the regular season in the future. Well, This goal is a bit far away, our short-term goal is to win the championship.”

The reporter asked: "You have led three different teams to achieve the best record in the regular season. This is an unprecedented achievement. What do you think?"

Yang Rui looked serious, was silent for 5 seconds, and shook his head. "I don't have any thoughts, I'm used to it."

The reporters were instantly excited and caught the big news. Yang Rui was the most arrogant speech in the coaching world. Apart from him, no one else could develop this habit.
