Chapter 700 700. Someone else's regular season MVP
The playoffs are in full swing. After four games without much resistance, the Lakers easily swept the Blazers 4-0 to advance to the second round.
Lillard performed very well, but Liu Ren performed even better. Although Lillard averaged 33 points per game, his shooting percentage was only 30.00%. Liu Ren's defense was extremely good.
At the same time, Liu Ren's ability to score stably is too strong. After the increase in playing time, he has steadily scored about 25 points in each of the four games. It seems that he has been defending Lillard, occasionally attacking with the ball, and shooting three-pointers. , The second offense is one or two, and you get it after 25 points in each game. In the four games, you averaged 25 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists per game, and played steadily in each game.
The Lakers swept the Blazers to advance to the second round first, and the situation in other series has also stabilized.
The Cavaliers won two consecutive games in Indiana and easily won the series match point 3-1. They returned home and continued to win the game, advancing to the second round 4-1.
The Thunder and the Clippers scored 3 to 2, and then returning to the home court is likely to end the series. The Spurs and the Grizzlies also scored 3 to 2, and then they will go to the Grizzlies' home court.
For the Warriors, the Mavericks are really tenacious. After the Warriors returned to their home court for two consecutive away games, they were bitten by the Mavericks again. The score became 3 to 2, and they went to Dallas again.
The game between the Knicks and the Hornets was very good. The Knicks have a very strong lineup. They have Wade, Anthony, Stoudemire, and Porzingis. The Hornets also have Jeremy Lin who has gold-plated championship experience. Together with Al Jefferson, who has the strongest low-post scoring ability in active service, as well as Kemba Walker, Batum, Courtney Lee and other excellent defensive players, they gave the Knicks a great threat, but in the end it was a big threat. The score doesn't look as intense as the game. After the Knicks lost the second game, there were no accidents in the next three games, and the series ended 4-1.
The 76ers also basically crushed the Raptors. After winning the home court advantage 76-4 in the away game, the 1ers returned to Philadelphia and won both games strongly. In the fifth game, the Raptors did not continue to struggle chance, the Raptors were eliminated [-]-[-].
This is the third consecutive year for the Raptors to hold the top four record in the East but be eliminated by a team with a worse record. This is no longer a matter of bad luck, but a problem with their play style in the playoffs But watching them play so well in the regular season, I really can't tell what is wrong with them.
The Celtics played against the Eagles, but the Cavaliers did not get what they wanted. The Celtics also ended the playoffs 4-1.
When there were seven 7-to-1 games, the media thought that there would be a lot of upsets in this year's playoffs, but they didn't expect that this would be the first round of anticlimax. Except for the Spurs and Grizzlies who played fiercely, other series The winner was decided early in the game, and the 1ers did not cause much disturbance. It can only be said that the Raptors playoffs are really a bit miserable. After the first game, people are sure that Isaiah Thomas will lead The 76ers are stronger than the Raptors.
……
……
On April 4th, Liu Ren expressed his unhappiness on this day.
It has been two days since the end of the first round, and the Lakers haven't practiced too much, and most of the time they still focus on maintaining their state.
The Spurs and the Grizzlies are fighting fiercely. A tie-break is not impossible. The Lakers feel that the Spurs will win in the end. The Spurs are different this year from last year. , has injected a lot of young blood, the average age is only 25 years old, it can be regarded as one of the youngest teams in the NBA, except for the troika, David West and Dior, all players under the age of 30, even older Some are under 25 years old.
And the three old carriages of the Spurs are still very important, but they are no longer the absolute core. The entire offense of the Spurs revolves around Leonard and Aldridge, although Aldridge has never been integrated into the Spurs system. The method is still singles, but he is strong!Playing at an All-Star level in a system he's not good at.
Although this kind of Spurs can't catch up with them who were invincible in 13 and 14, they are much better than last season's one who was only strong but had no continuous combat ability. It is worthwhile to fight with the Grizzlies. Being dragged to the tiebreaker by the Clippers like last season.
So the Lakers prepared for the second round with the Spurs with peace of mind.
Liu Ren is also preparing with peace of mind. He may need more mid-range shots in the second round, so he has been practicing mid-range shots. His mid-range shooting ability with Kobe, Gasol, and Monroe is an important weapon against the Spurs. .
Counting, Liu Ren has already lost to the Spurs twice. The first time was when Howard was still there, he was abused by Duncan and couldn't take care of himself. At that time, Howard, who was at his peak, had no power to fight back against the 37-year-old Duncan. Kobe After the injury, Howard was the best player of the Lakers. Howard couldn't handle it, and others naturally couldn't help it.
The Western Conference Finals in 14 was the only one Kobe lost in the Western Conference Finals in his career. It was also the first time that Liu Ren actually played in the playoffs, and then he was brutally abused by the Spurs led by Duncan.
So this time Liu Ren wants to get back to the field, and is working hard to prepare for the battle.
But this time a blow came...
On this day, April 4th, the NBA officially announced that the regular season MVP voting results were released, and Stephen Curry was unanimously elected as the regular season MVP!
库里本赛季场均32分5板6助攻，整个联盟唯一的一个场均30+5+5的球员，这个数据在整个NBA历史都是相当少有的，拿到过这个数据的球员一只手都能数得过来。
Coupled with the second record of 73 wins in NBA history, there is no suspense for Curry to be elected as the regular season MVP.
Liu Ren also knows that it is indeed difficult to win the MVP with his own data, and the team's record is not particularly crushing other teams, but it does not prevent him from being very unhappy!
……
……
Curry on the shores of Daming Lake accepted the MVP trophy in the Dallas away locker room. They didn't want to drag it to the tiebreaker, and they were going to win the series on the last day of April.
This MVP trophy was already in Curry's pocket, but when he really got the trophy, he smiled like a fat man who weighed 160 pounds... as if he was over 160 pounds...
After winning the MVP trophy, Curry feels that he has more capital to compete with Liu Ren for the title of the strongest young generation. At least in terms of personal honor, Curry is no worse than Liu Ren now!
As the scoring champion, Liu Ren won one. Curry beat Isaiah Thomas and Harden to get it back this year. Both of them had it for a while. Now the regular season MVP, which is regarded as the highest personal honor, Curry Li also got it in the second year after Liu Ren.
But Curry kept sneezing while picking up the MVP trophy, and he was a little worried that he might have a cold...
