Chapter 1559 1558. Three Consecutive MVPs!

Gradually some teams began to enter the second round.

First, the Hawks swept to advance, and then the Spurs swept the Mavericks to advance to the second round.

On the first day of the new month, the Raptors also defeated the 76ers 4-1, and Milicic entered the second round for the first time in his career.

The Magic played 3-1 with the Bobcats, and the Raptors' opponent in the second round is basically determined to be the Magic.

The Cavaliers are really no match for the Bulls. Although the point difference in each game is not big, the Bulls already lead 3-2.

James was restrained by Garnett, and Billups was unlucky when he met Hinrich. There are only three people in the league who can prevent Billups from losing his temper. One is Kidd, one is Liu Mang, and the last one It's Hinrich.

The poor man's version of Stockton at least shows that Hinrich's playing style is very close to Stockton, and it is indeed very similar, especially the defense, the little moves are simply amazing.

If James hadn't rushed all the way to the basket for the buzzer-beater in Game 5, the Cavaliers would have been eliminated.

The Lakers finally came back to their senses in the away game, drawing from 1-2 to 2-2, and won the battle of Tianwangshan on the night of the 1st, finally successfully leading the lead to 3-2.

The Nuggets and Suns played vigorously, with the Suns leading the Nuggets 3-2.

Iverson entered the peak state of his new style of play. He connected the whole team and broke through the mid-range shot. He was stunned to catch up from 1 to 3 to 2 to 3, leaving the Nuggets with a chance to come back. Of course, Iverson Being able to average 12 assists per game in the first round is inseparable from a group of track and field players on the Nuggets.

58 Brother, it’s miserable...

Except for the 99-98 second game, which relied on David West's mid-range shot, the other three games were worse than the last.

We lost the first game by 29 points, the third game by 35 points, the fourth game by 51 points...

The main reason was the difficult victory in the second game. In the third game, they were beaten 100-65... This was too demoralizing. In the fourth game, they completely collapsed and were slaughtered by the Jazz 62-113 by 51 points.

The Hornets, who played so well in the regular season, were beaten by the Jazz and were unable to fight back. No one except Liu Mang expected that.

Who made Paul meet the team led by Coach Sloan? One reason is that Paul is not good at guarding players like Deron. Another reason is that Paul is best at playing pick-and-rolls, and Coach Sloan’s attainments in pick-and-rolls Probably the first in history.

If it were a breakthrough point guard like Iverson, the Jazz would be very restrained, but when facing Paul, the Jazz played too comfortably.

The Hornets were outscored by 51 points by the Jazz, and it was still on the headlines of major websites. When Liu Mang saw the news, he held a few seconds of silence for Paul, and then felt that Paul was lucky, at least it was not 58...

Otherwise, wearing 58, nicknamed Mr. 58, and being abused as 58...

Liu Mang put aside the evil thoughts of regret.

Xiao Pao's younger brother was such a good brother, Liu Mang tried hard not to expect something like that to happen in the last scene.

Today is May 2nd. The Hornets and Jazz, Magic and Bobcats may decide the winner tonight, and the Suns and Nuggets, Rockets and Lakers, Cavaliers and Bulls may decide the winner tomorrow night.

The Hawks returned to Atlanta on the 30th, had a day off on the 1st, and started normal training today.

It is a style of play that uses the inside line as the basic point to make unlimited substitutions for the opponent's inside line. This is the Eagles' clearest direction in preparing for the playoffs in seven years. The Eagles can play against the Cavaliers or the Bulls.

This is where the Eagles are strongest right now.

Liu Mang was the first to arrive at the gym on the training day. After checking the news for a while, his teammates also arrived one after another.

Training, team tactics discussions...

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Mang waited for several days and finally got the news!

The league notified the Eagles to prepare a press conference!

Having the Hawks prepare for a press conference in the middle of the first round of the playoffs and what that means is... obvious.

Sixth Man of the Year...no player on the Hawks has a chance this season.

There seems to be no Most Improved Award. No one has improved as much as Granger this season.

Then there's only one left!

…

At five o'clock in the afternoon on May 2, 2008, the Eagles held a press conference to announce that Liu Mang won the regular season MVP!

This year's award ceremony has a few changes from previous years. Each team is asked to hold a press conference to award awards. This small and innocuous change was proposed by Adam Silva.

When Liu Mang learned about the different awards this season, he could guess that it was the idea of ​​the future bald president who knew nothing about the court and had many tricks outside of the game.

When Adam Silva handed the regular season MVP trophy to Liu Mang at the press conference, Liu Mang still felt a little incredible.

Three consecutive MVPs!

Probably because this is the first time the MVP trophy is awarded in this way. In the past, awards were given out in the arena. The league announced the winner first, and the winner went to the press conference to display the MVP trophy. This time, the award format is completely different. Liu Mang ’s acceptance speech was quite official and not prepared at all.

When Liu Mang won the 2007-2008 regular season MVP trophy from Adam Silva, in Charlotte, Danny Granger was unanimously elected as the Most Improved Player, and in San Antonio, Manu- Ginobili beat out Leonard Barbosa of the Suns and Rudy Gay of the Rockets to win the Sixth Man of the Year award!

Liu Mang wins regular season MVP for three consecutive years!

After the Hawks press conference, Hawks fans entered another carnival night, and Celtics fans were depressed...

Lakers fans and Hornets fans were also depressed.

When the vote rate was announced, Lakers fans were even more depressed.

Liu Mang received 45 first-place votes, with a total vote rate of 39%, only two percentage points higher than Duncan's 37% vote rate with 40 first-place votes!

There are two other players with vote rates exceeding 5%, Milicic's 12% and Kobe's 7%.

For the first time, Lakers fans felt regretful when they saw Duncan didn't get the MVP...

...

"Congratulations to the host for winning the regular season MVP for three consecutive seasons, and the achievement reward is 200,000 superstar value."

"Congratulations to the host for winning the regular season MVP in the 2007-2008 season, and the reward is 50,000 superstar value."

Just as Liu Mang expected, compared with the achievement reward of 100,000 superstar value for two consecutive MVPs, the three consecutive MVPs doubled again!

Including the regular MVP reward, the total increase is 250,000!

Adding the previous 450,000 and the regular rewards of the first round, the total is more than 713,000 superstar value!

But Liu Mang is now a wise man after the event.

"I should have said this at the time... Alas..."

Liu Mang felt annoyed when he thought of his silly look at the press conference in the afternoon.

Just like when a person calms down and his IQ increases after losing a quarrel, Liu Mang is now annoyed that he did not pretend to be cool at the press conference in the afternoon.

"It's all the fault of the bald president. Why do you do these things when you have nothing to do..."

Liu Mang came to the honor exhibition room. Now the little loli no longer needs Liu Mang's help to put things in the cabinet, and the top floor only needs a ladder.

Two cubs and a little loli are in the honor exhibition room. As soon as Liu Mang entered, he saw his unlucky son playing with the third team trophy and the second defense trophy again.

"God, I told you not to play with this!" Liu Mang snatched the third team trophy from Becas.

In the eyes of the little girl, these two trophies are the least important, but in the eyes of Liu Mang... the second defense is okay, and it may be won in the future. The first defense is not so easy to get every year, but the third team trophy may not be the second one!

Becas is only two and a half years old, but he has gotten used to it. However, he is still very happy to see Liu Mang and reaches out for a hug.

Liu Mang saw the little girl taking Avril to the living room, looked around and saw no one, and picked up Becas.

Becas is very sensible. When Liu Mang opened the cabinet, Becas put the trophy in his hand back into the cabinet...

...

Liu Mang won the regular season MVP for three consecutive years. The press conference on Liu Mang's side was very dull. The media failed to get any news with topics, so they found other active players and retired but still active stars to interview.

Boss Joe is happy now. Anyway, Liu Mang has taken away so many records. Liu Mang has made up 73 wins, 4 consecutive finals MVPs, etc. Now Boss Joe has just won the best manager. He is in a good mood and praises Liu Mang to death.

The four brothers of the 03 generation who are currently fighting in the playoffs expressed their respect in a normal way.

Some old stars expressed their disbelief, and Yao Ming expressed his pride in Liu Mang.

Only two stars refused to be interviewed.

One was another No. 24, and the other was another No. 21.

This is what the media wants, praise, compliments, pride, and feeling incredible... These are too boring.

Those two guys refused to be interviewed, and the reporters could write whatever they wanted.

If you don't accept the interview, I will guess what you are thinking, which is perfect for reporters.

So, the Internet was once again filled with verbal battles by the media, and many "Duncan fans" emerged to curse with Hawks fans, 60E fans... Liu Mang's fans couldn't resist either.

However, this is not important to Liu Mang... Let those jealous guys be jealous, he is now enjoying the happiness of three consecutive MVPs...

This year's regular season MVP award has caused an unprecedented sensation, but it will not affect the progress of the playoffs.

On the night of May 2, the series between the Hornets and the Jazz, and the Magic and the Bobcats were decided.

102 to 95, in the fifth series between the Jazz and the Hornets, the Jazz narrowly beat the Hornets at home and entered the second round.

The Hornets did not lose too badly in the last game. They regrouped and wanted to fight, but they were indeed restrained by the opponent. They fought hard and could not struggle to the sixth game.

The Magic beat the Bobcats 4 to 1, 91 to 87, and entered the second round.

In the West, the Spurs and the Jazz have advanced, and both teams are waiting for the next round of opponents.

In the East, the Magic and the Raptors are confirmed to play in the second round, and the second round will start on May 7 at the latest, and the earliest may be on May 5, depending on the Cavaliers and the Bulls.

The Hawks are also waiting for the next round of opponents, and they are getting a little impatient.

However, the Bulls didn't let the Hawks wait too long. On the evening of May 3, the last series of the first round of the Eastern Conference was decided. The Bulls defeated the Cavaliers by 13 points on the road, 103 to 90, and entered the second round! This is the first time in three years that the Cavaliers have lost in the first round. It is also bad luck. This season, the Raptors and Magic have made great progress, pushing the Cavaliers to fifth in the Eastern Conference, and they met the Bulls in the first round.

However, whether from the lineup or the regular season performance, the Cavaliers don't seem to have much hope of winning against the top four teams in the East.

The Suns also ended the series in the sixth game, 115 to 113. Jason Richardson's winning three-pointer helped the Suns beat the Nuggets and advance to the second round 4 to 2.

The Lakers, on the other hand, finally turned the tables to lead 3 to 2, but were upset by the Rockets in the sixth game!

98 to 94, the Rockets beat the Lakers at home and tied the score to 3 to 3!

The Lakers will start a tiebreaker with the Rockets on May 5!

In the first round of eight series, no one could have thought that the Rockets could force the Lakers into a tiebreaker!

Liu Mang originally thought that it was just the Lakers who were careless, but this was a bit too careless.

Originally, Liu Mang had no intention of analyzing anyone in the playoffs. This year's regular season has already had a lot of "Details" in 20 issues. Now it seems that the Lakers have something worth analyzing again.

Relatively speaking, Liu Mang hopes that the Lakers can win, he wants revenge!
