Chapter 640: Re-Winning MVP

The regular season is finally over, just like a big drama. After the end, some people are happy and some are worried.

The Spurs briefly relaxed in March, but after feeling the threats posed by the Lakers and Warriors behind them, they returned to the Spurs who were No. 1 in the Western Conference in April.

In the half month of April, the Spurs won seven of eight games, and the only game they lost was against the Warriors. Their 7-1 record allowed them to finalize their record at the end of the regular season at 65-17, which is still 65 wins and 17 losses.

Occupy the top spot in the Western Conference. Since November, the first position in the Western Conference has been occupied by the Spurs. This is indeed beyond everyone's expectations.

Ranked second is still the Lakers. After failing to defend the title last season, the Lakers were briefly confused at the beginning of the season, but then they began to burst into combat effectiveness. Especially after the beginning of February, their performance was very stable and their winning rate was also very impressive.

, their record at the end of the regular season was 63 wins and 19 losses.

The Lakers also lost only one game in April, and coincidentally, like the Spurs, they also lost to the Warriors.

The Warriors are still ranked third in the Western Conference, with a record of 62 wins and 20 losses. If they maintain a complete victory in April, they will be tied with the Lakers at 64 wins and 18 losses. However, because they have a better record against Western Conference teams than the Lakers.

The reason why they are slightly worse will also be ranked third. The Warriors can still achieve a record of 64 wins even though the team lacks a starting center and a sixth player for most of the time. Although they are only ranked third in the Western Conference, the Warriors are still good enough.

Feel proud.

Ranked fourth in the Western Conference is the Mavericks. Compared with the top three, the Mavericks gap is slightly larger, but it has also reached 57 wins and 25 losses. The Mavericks have made great progress this season, but unfortunately the Spurs and Lakers

, the Warriors' performance this season is really outstanding.

The fifth position in the Western Conference belongs to the Denver Nuggets. After trading away Anthony, the Nuggets recruited a number of potential players from the Knicks to their own team. Their record did not decline. Their record of 52 wins and 30 losses also allowed them to continue to stay.

Among the top eight in the Western Conference. The Nuggets also have hidden dangers. Without an absolute core, they may have performed well in the regular season, but entering the playoffs, especially at critical moments, the role of stars cannot be ignored.

The Nuggets' opponent is the Mavericks. The latter's core star Nowitzki has repeatedly stepped forward to help the team at critical moments this season. When the two teams meet, this may become a key factor in determining the outcome.

The Thunder also had 52 wins and 30 losses, but due to their relative record, they could only be ranked sixth. This made the Thunder very helpless. How could they be willing to face the Warriors in the first round of the playoffs if they could choose?

Oxen are also very strong, but warriors...

The Trail Blazers are ranked seventh in the Western Conference with 48 wins and 34 losses. Their first-round opponent is the second-ranked Lakers. Roy has been plagued by injuries this season and is not as good as before. Considering the difference in strength between the two teams inside and outside, the Blazers are

It's hard to create obstacles for the Lakers.

The 46-36 Hornets are on the last train of the playoffs. They are eighth in the Western Conference and will face the Spurs. The showdown between Paul and Parker will indeed attract a lot of attention. If the Spurs can still perform in the playoffs

If the Hornets don't have the same combat effectiveness as in the regular season, they won't be able to get away with it.

The most tragic team in the Western Conference is not the Thunder but the Grizzlies. At the end of the season, the Grizzlies suddenly burst into fighting power. After the season, they also improved their record to 46 wins and 36 losses. In terms of winning rate, they are completely the same as the Hornets, but

They also belong to the Southwest Division, but they had to be ranked ninth due to the division war, and ultimately missed the playoffs. This shows how fierce the competition in the Western Conference is.

Compared with the Western Conference, the competition in the Eastern Conference is obviously not as fierce. With the impact at the end of the season, the Bulls finally ranked first in the Eastern Conference with a record of 62 wins and 20 losses. This is also an unexpected ranking.

No one could have imagined that the Bulls would win more than 60 games at the end of the season, let alone that they would be ranked first in the Eastern Conference.

There are three teams in the Western Conference with more than 60 wins in the end, which is really rare, but the Bulls are the only one in the Eastern Conference.

The Heat, ranked second in the Eastern Conference, have a record of 58 wins and 24 losses. The Heat's combat effectiveness has indeed been greatly improved by gathering the Big Three. Considering the role of stars in the playoffs, the Heat may be better than the Bulls in the eyes of most people.

Go further.

The Celtics, with 56 wins and 26, ranked third in the Eastern Conference. They were not as strong as they were at the beginning of the season at the end of the season. After all, the players on the team were no longer young. Despite this, the Celtics are still considered

The biggest obstacle for the Heat or Bulls to enter the finals. Think about last season when the Celtics ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference in the regular season but finally reached the finals. Who dares to despise it?

Although the Magic are ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference with 52 wins and 30 losses, in the eyes of most people, they do not have the strength to compete with the top three, so they are not favored by others.

The Hawks, with 44 wins and 38 losses, are ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference. They will face off against the Magic. The Hawks have been regarded as a rising power in the Eastern Conference in the past two years, but their rise is obviously not as fast as the Bulls.

After trading for Anthony, the Knicks' record fluctuated very obviously for a period, which also caused the outside world to question. In the end, the Knicks' record stayed at 42 wins and 40 losses, and their opponent in the first round of the playoffs was the Boston Celtics.

The opponents of the Heat and Bulls were the 76ers, who were ranked seventh in the Western Conference with 41 wins and 41 losses, and the Pacers, who were ranked eighth in the Western Conference with 37 wins and 45 losses. The winning rate was only 45% but they could enter the playoffs. This kind of thing

In recent years, it has only happened in the east.

Now that the regular season has come to an end, what people are most concerned about is undoubtedly the ownership of the major awards. The Warriors had a great harvest last season, but in comparison, the Warriors this season are obviously not as competitive.

Regular season MVP candidate Yang Shuai is still considered the biggest favorite. In 82 games throughout the season, Yang Shuai averaged 36.8 points, 10.8 assists, 10.3 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 1.8 blocks per game, becoming the second in NBA history.

A player who has a triple-double this season.

This season, Yang Shuai has achieved a season triple-double an astonishing 51 times, which is 9 times more than the 42 times Oscar Robertson achieved a season triple-double!

The strongest small forward! Last season, people thought that Yang Shuai was the strongest small forward in active service. After this season, people have removed the word active, and he is the strongest small forward in history!

Yang Shuai's strength is reflected in every aspect. He averaged 36.8 points per game, making him once again the scoring leader this season, ranking third in assists with 10.8 assists, sixth in rebounding with 10.3 rebounds, and 1.5 steals.

He became the steal leader this season, and his 1.8 blocks also ranked him tenth in the shot blocking list.

All statistics are in the top ten, which shows Yang Shuai's comprehensiveness! When the media praised him as the strongest small forward and the most comprehensive small forward in history, no one stood up to question it, because he deserved the title.

And Yang Shuai's magical performance this season is even more talked about. All kinds of abnormal triple-double data, single-game three-pointer record, single-quarter scoring record, 86 points...

Rose is another MVP favorite, averaging 25 points, 7.7 assists and 4.1 rebounds this season, and the Bulls have made huge improvements.

However, compared with Yang Shuai's strength, Rose's statistics and contribution to the team are not as good. The Warriors and Bulls also have a record of 62 wins and 20 losses, so it is difficult for Rose to pose a threat to Yang Shuai. He is the winner of the regular season MVP.

It can only be Yang Shuai.

Nelson is out of the running for Best Coach this year. Although Rose may lose to Yang Shuai in the regular season MVP selection, Bulls head coach Tom Thibodeau is the most popular candidate for Best Coach. His entry makes the Bulls

Earth-shaking changes have taken place.

Best Sixth Man, Best Improved Player, and Best Rookie, these three awards that all went to the Warriors last season will not be available to the Warriors this season, and no one on the Warriors team has the strength to compete.

The Best Defensive Player award was the only award that the Warriors did not win last season, but this season it is very likely to fall to the Warriors, and Yang Shuai is the most competitive candidate.

The Warriors' overall defense may be different from other teams, but Yang Shuai's defensive ability is noticed by everyone. When Chandler was injured and absent, it was Yang Shuai who became the core of the Warriors' defense.

His individual defense and assist defense capabilities are unparalleled among outside players in the league.

Even in terms of statistics, Yang Shuai is not weaker than any player. Howard, another popular candidate, does have higher statistics in rebounds and blocks than Yang Shuai, but considering the positions of the two, Yang Shuai will undoubtedly account for more

of points.

The first award to be announced was the Sixth Man of the Year, and this honor fell to Lamar Odom of the Lakers.

The best improved player belongs to the Timberwolves' Kevin Love, the best rookie belongs to the Clippers' Blake Griffin, the best coach is the Bulls' Tom Thibodeau, and the best manager is the Heat's Pat Riley.

As people expected, the best defensive player and MVP were both awarded to Yang Shuai.

"The second player in history to average a triple-double in a season, 51 triple-doubles, 86 points... Yang has created too many miracles this season. He is the most outstanding player in the NBA this season, leading in scoring and steals.

King, third in assists, sixth in rebounds, and tenth in blocks. With such a performance, he deserves the MVP award!"

"Yang's performance on the defensive end is impeccable. While he is the core of the team's offense, he is also the core of the team's defense. Young's rebounding and blocking statistics exceed those of most big men, and his steals lead

Of all the perimeter players, he is the best defensive player this season!"

Following the All-Star MVP trophy, Yang Shuai won his second and third trophies this season, winning the All-Star Game and regular season MVP trophies. At the same time, Yang Shuai also entered the first team of the All-NBA Team and the first team of the All-Defensive Team.

In the regular season, Yang Shuai has performed well enough. All Warriors fans are looking forward to his performance in the playoffs. Next, Yang Shuai will attack for his second Finals MVP trophy!
