I’m Really Playing Basketball

On May 5, 2003, Chen Xiao was still chatting with Wade and Yao Ming about the gossip about Luo Ge and the Magic in the morning, and was still worried about Luo Ge's situation in the Magic.

In the afternoon, Chen Xiao and the Nets replaced Ron Howard as the biggest player in the NBA.

After the first round of the NBA playoffs ended, the league announced the major NBA awards.

There is no doubt that as the second Nets player in NBA history to achieve a record of 72 wins and 10 losses, he became the biggest winner.

The first award announced by the league is this year's Rookie of the Year.

Before the award was announced, most of them had already determined who the award would belong to.

In the end, the results of the best rookie announced by the league were indeed as everyone guessed.

Chen Xiao defeated the Heat's Wade and Yao Ming and won this year's Rookie of the Year with averages of 27.23 points, 4.2 rebounds, 0.1 assists, 0.2 blocks and 0.8 steals per game.

At the same time, Chen Xiao also led Wade, Yao Ming, Boozer, and Stoudemire to be selected to the rookie first team.

After the Rookie of the Year, the league announced the Sixth Man of the Year.

The winner was still a Nets player. Kidders averaged 9.9 points per game, defeating strong opponents such as Bobby Jones, and won the honor of the Best Sixth Man.

At the same time, Kidders also became the fourth Sixth Man of the Year to average less than 10 points per game after Bobby Jones in 1983, Bill Walton in 1986, and Anthony Mason Jr. in 1995.

Therefore, when this award was announced, the controversy was really big.

Because many people have speculated that this award belongs to the Kings' backup guard Bobby Jackson. The Kings are ranked first in the Western Conference this season. Bobby Jackson's data is 15.2 points per game, whether it is points, assists, baskets, steals, etc. All above Kidders.

However, Bobby Jackson's attendance rate this year was average, playing only 56 games.

So, generally speaking, it can be given to anyone.

In the end, the league chose Kidders.

As a representative of the 1996 golden generation, Kidders has been in the league for so many years and finally won the only commendable award in his NBA career. When this Nets veteran received this trophy, he was really a little bit " Cry into tears'.

The award announced after Sixth Man of the Year is Most Improved Player.

This award is finally not for Nets players.

This year's fastest offensive player goes to Arenas of the Warriors.

This is also very well-deserved. Arenas' scoring average increased from 10.9 to 18.3 in his second year compared to his first year, which is an incredible improvement.

As a 'good friend' of Chen Xiao and a 'good fellow' who was forced to join the Mamba Cult by Chen Xiao, Arenas reported the good news to Chen Xiao immediately after winning the award.

Of course, Chen Xiao was very happy about Arenas' news.

Chen Xiao is also very happy for Arenas.

"Gilbert, congratulations. You have unlocked another honor for our Mamba Sect's honor room. You are worthy of being one of the Four Mamba Kings that I value."

What a pleasure!

Even through the phone, Chen Xiao could feel Arenas' happy mood.

Feeling Arenas's mood, Chen Xiao hoped that he could continue to encourage him.

"It's impossible for me to win an award like the Most Improved. I hope you can win this award next year!"

"Even if you don't get the fastest improvement, it's up to you to unlock our Mamba Coach's best sixth man award."

Chen Xiao felt that there was no problem with his statement.

He and Arenas often duel, and he knows Arenas' true strength.

As long as he is given a larger platform and more opportunities, he can do better with data.

Whether he is the best sixth man or the most improved, he has a great chance.

However, I don't know why, after Chen Xiao said this, Arenas's happy mood suddenly turned bad.

What is an ‘award like Most Improved’?

What does it mean to have the ‘Best Sixth Man’ unlocked by me?

Co-author, do I, Arenas, only deserve these awards?

Why can't I, Arenas, enter the first team, win the scoring title, and win the MVP? !

beep beep beep...

Listening to the beeping sound from the phone, Chen Xiao blinked in confusion.

This is, gone?

Still, what's wrong?

"It seems that the Mamba Cult and the Wolf King Cult can't just recruit people. The ideological consciousness of the church members must also be regularly educated and improved."

Chen Ling thought secretly.

If the wolf king of a certain forest wolf knew what Chen Xiao was thinking now, he would definitely support it with both hands.

The Wolf King teaches two major parallel imports, the parallel import No. 1 pick Kwame Brown, and the parallel import No. 2 Tyson Chandler. He has always been doing the ideological work, okay!

Now, have you finally remembered such a thing?

actually……

Chen Xiao did not think about the ideological consciousness of the Wolf King Sect.

Garnett, the Wolf King, has done a good job educating Kwame Brown and Tyson Chandler.

He's just worried about the Mamba.

Neither Arenas nor Jamal Crawford seem to be fuel savers.

Why are our members of the Mamba Cult all problem teenagers?

Can't you be as honest as the members of the Wolf King Sect?

After announcing the most improved player, the league is finally going to announce a very important award, the best defensive player award.

Before this award was announced, many fans speculated that it would be Pistons center Ben Wallace.

Ben is a player who made it to the All-Stars thanks to his defense!

This player who knows nothing but defense has performed very well this season. He is the rebounding leader with 3.2 blocks and 1.4 steals.

Ben Wallace was already the best defensive player last season, and this season, his defensive statistics are even better.

However, when the league finally announced the awards, the entire league was shocked.

The head player of the Nets, Jason Kidd, finally won this season's Defensive Player of the Year. Kidd's defensive data this season is also quite outstanding among guards, averaging 7.5 rebounds and 2.5 steals per game, which is also among the best among guards. Very top notch.

However, compared with Ben's incredible defensive data, it is still not enough.

Obviously, Kidd's final award was related to the Nets' record.

The Nets have the best record in history with 72 wins and 10 losses.

The Pistons are not first in the Eastern Conference, but second in the Eastern Conference.

At the same time, Kidd is also a leader-type defensive player. With a player like Chen Xiao who fights and retreats, the Nets' perimeter defense not only did not collapse, but Chen Xiao also showed extraordinary performance on the defensive end under his command. Incredible abilities.

Without Kidd, Chen Xiao's defensive performance in those two games was a disaster.

This also allowed Kidd to finally defeat Big Ben and win this year's Defensive Player of the Year.

I have to say that this is a huge surprise for Boss Ji.

To be honest, he never thought he would win this award this season.

Except for the best defensive player.

Kidd, Kobe, Duncan, Garnett, and Ben Wallace were selected to the All-Defensive First Team.

Ron Howard, Wade, Artest, Richard Jefferson, and Kenyon Martin were selected to the defensive second team.

Among the 10 players in the defensive lineup, the Nets have three players selected, which is also a big victory.

Although three of the Nets' five starters were selected for the defense, Chen Xiao was a little embarrassed.

Who is missing is embarrassed.

However, Chen Xiao is still very happy for his three teammates.

And the three of them are indeed the reason why the Nets have such a good defense this season.

Chen Xiao was able to get so many shooting opportunities this season and was able to take crazy shots in many games with a low shooting rate, all because of their excellent defense.

They have excellent defense and can keep the opponent's defensive score very low, so that Chen Xiao's importance can be reflected. Otherwise, Chen Xiao can only reflect his cancerous nature.

Therefore, if the defense of the three can be praised by the league, Chen Xiao will be the first to applaud them.

Of course, Chen Xiao will also applaud Wade and Ron Howard.

It is well deserved for the two of them to be selected for the second defense.

Even if the Heat's record is better, Wade can join the first team.

Players who have been guarded by Wade this season all know how good this guy's defense is.

If there is a weakness in Luo Ge's defense against talent flow.

Well, Wade can prevent even talented players from dying.

The only defender Wade is afraid of...

Only high-ranking people are left.

For example, Chen Xiao...

After the Best Defensive Player and Defensive Team, the next best coach and best general manager are still the Nets.

Nets head coach Byron Scott won the award for the first time in his career. When he received the trophy, Scott smiled from ear to ear.

Having studied under Kings head coach Adelman, he now feels that he has reached the peak of his life.

He has 72 wins and the best coach, but now he is just short of a championship.

It is said that his teacher Adelman still does not have the best coach trophy.

But, Byron, don’t think about the pinnacle of life first. You, Adelman’s disciple, don’t forget that you haven’t learned Princeton. Your three axes are still restrained by the king led by Adelman.

You should show some strength as the best coach.

Don't meet the king in the finals and get beaten up by your teacher like crazy. That would be funny.

Byron Scott didn't think that far ahead at this time, hahahaha, it's all good!

In addition to Byron Scott, Ron Soder, the general manager of the Nets, is the best general manager this year. With the magical operation of Chen Xiao and Boozer in the draft, the most outstanding player in the NBA One of the leaders won the best manager award for the second time.

For a person of Rod Thorn's status, this award should not be very important to him.

What Chen Xiao didn't expect was that the team's general manager seemed very happy.

“Rod finally tied Jerry West.”

Okay, so it’s here.

Indeed, during this season with the Nets, Chen Xiao did hear a lot of gossip about Rod Thorn and Jerry West.

In fact, many external reviews say that both of them have their own strengths.

Rod Thorn is good at management. Rod Thorn is David Stern's most critical and important assistant in promoting the NBA to the United States and the world.

Jerry West is good at trading and drafting, so I won’t go into details on this, he understands everything.

Rod Thorn came to the Nets this time to prove that he can also build a king's team like Jerry West!

Kidd was traded last season and the Nets went straight to the finals, which proved his trading ability.

This season's draft brought Chen Xiao and Boozer, and the Nets had 72 wins and 10 losses, proving his drafting ability.

In these two seasons, Rod Thorn has proven that he has as strong a draft and trade ability as Jerry West.

At least, that's what's being blown outside now.

Rod Thorn thinks so now.

A manager who is already the number one in business operations is now the number one contender in history in terms of trade and draft selection. To be honest, such a manager is perfect, right? Is it the strongest?

Therefore, Rhodes Thorne, in the adulation of the whole world, is a bit arrogant.

Well, it’s really a bit fluttery!

It has to be said that the elderly, like children, are not allowed to blow.

How about old children?

After the Best Coach and the Best Manager, the most important award of the NBA regular season this season is announced, and it is also the most watched award.

What award?

Of course he is the MVP of the regular season!

On the evening of May 5, 2003, at the MVP award ceremony held by the Nets for Kidd.

Kidd received the regular season MVP trophy from David Stern.

The regular season MVP trophy is held in his right hand, and the best defensive player trophy is on the podium.

I have to say, this one is really quite ranked.

However, compared with these two gold-rich trophies.

Boss Ji's MVP speech was equally moving.

The guests sitting in the audience, except for players such as Chen Xiao and the Nets, all cried.

Including league commissioner David Stern.

Most of the people in the audience were attracted by Boss Ji’s article titled ‘Thank you wife! ’ I cried during the speech.

I have to say that Boss Ji, who was standing on the podium, choked with sobs and thanked his wife. The tearful Boss Ji was really touching!

"The love between husband and wife is deep, the love between husband and wife is deep!"

"It's not easy for NBA players to have such a model couple, it's not easy!"

I won’t complain too much about what the emotional world of NBA players is like.

Even if it is an excellent writer, when writing a basketball novel, it is impossible to write a true, believable and beautiful emotional drama.

99% of NBA players do not deserve to have a normal relationship. How can one write about this!

Therefore, in the world of NBA, don't look for any touching emotions.

This is already a consensus.

Unexpectedly, after Duncan's pair, Kidd came up with another pair!

"It would be great if NBA players' love lives were as simple as Kidd and Duncan."

David Stern, who was in tears in the audience, was thinking secretly in his heart.

People, don’t forget your roots!

If you have money, you should also give yourself the other half of your love!

If you give others feelings, they will never hit you or love you.

When you, like Kidd and Duncan, give your most sincere feelings to your other half, your other half will return your most sincere feelings.

Looking at Mrs. Ji under the stage, she was so moved that the red candles in her hands became even brighter.

only……

Others were waving glow sticks, but why was Mrs. Kee holding a candle and waving a small whip?

What is this hobby for young people?

I am old and I don’t understand young people.

but……

"It seems that in the future we can invite Kidd and Duncan to give lessons to those men in the NBA who become bad when they have money."

Kidd burst into tears during the MVP speech, and Mrs. Kidd, who is 1.6 meters tall, also burst into tears in the audience.

When Mrs. Ji excitedly rushed to the podium with a leather whip and hugged Boss Ji, Boss Ji's body trembled with excitement.

This is really trembling!

The whole audience, the audience across America, saw it.

Therefore, everyone was even more moved.

I'm afraid, only the Nets players know at this time that Big Brother Ji's trembling is not really moved, but really trembling!

To be fair, many players on the Nets were trembling with fear from Kessler's incident.

What is adjustment education? This is adjustment education!

When the whole country is bragging about Mr. Gay as a model couple, can Mr. Gay still resist the pressure from the United States and get a divorce?

"Boss Ji is still hesitating whether to divorce or not. His sister-in-law forced him to do this. How can he divorce now? If he is really divorced and abandons his wife and children after becoming MVP, he must be the number one scumbag in the United States! "

"Sister-in-law is so awesome!"

"Seeing this, I have phobia of marriage. What should I do?"

"Me too!"

"me too!"

"What's the fear of marriage? You guys just don't want to be controlled by others and want to have more fun!"

Keith's touching MVP speech moved the entire United States, and in this emotion, the Nets completed the final harvest of regular season awards.

After James won the regular season MVP, the league announced this season's best lineup.

Kidd continues to lead the first team, with Kidd, Chen Xiao, Duncan, Garnett and O'Neal forming the first team.

The second team is led by Kobe Bryant, and Kobe, McGrady, Webber, Nowitzki, and Ben Wallace form the second team.

The third team, led by Iverson, Iverson, Ray Allen, Pierce, Jamal Mashburn, O'Neal Jr.

Selected to the first team in his rookie season!

Chen Xiao was looking forward to this result, but he didn't have high hopes.

Because the competitors are indeed too strong. Kobe, Tracy McGrady, and Iverson are stronger than him, have better statistics than him, and are the boss of the team. They seem to have more reasons than him to get the position of first team and Kidd. together.

Compared with these real strong men, the only advantage Chen Xiao has is the team's record!

As far as Kobe is concerned, the Lakers are fifth in the Western Conference and O'Neal is already in one team. A team that is fifth in the Western Conference cannot have two teams.

Therefore, it is almost impossible for the judges who selected O'Neal to select Kobe.

As for McGrady and Iverson, McGrady has the best statistics, but he is seventh.

Iverson's problem is still a commonplace issue. Because of the conflict with Larry Brown, his reputation has been very poor in the past two seasons.

Of course, in addition to the huge record advantage of the Nets, another reason why Chen Xiao can win the first team is that his data is worthy of defeating the three of Koaimai and worthy of being in the first team!

Averaged 27.23 points per game. With this statistic, it's not a shame to hold on to Koaimai for a while!

Only now did Chen Xiao understand the meaning behind Jordan's previous instructions for him to try to get better data.

If his scoring data were not so beautiful, in such a fierce competition for guards this season, he might not be able to hold down the three guards who average 30+ per game.

But anyway, after Chen Xiao got the first team in his rookie season, he also became the seventh player to get the first team after Bob Pettit, Chamberlain, Elgin Baylor, Oscar Robertson, Larry Bird, and Duncan. rookie player.

In the NBA, there has been a discussion about who is the No. 1 rookie in the NBA.

It has always been 6+1, the previous six first-team rookies + the Finals MVP rookie Magic.

Who among these seven people is the best rookie in NBA history? No one can agree on who is the best rookie in NBA history.

The main reason is that there are three people who are really difficult to schedule in their rookie season.

Magic, the Finals MVP, Duncan, the first-team second defense, and Chamberlain, the first-team MVP.

The Magic are the most successful in the playoffs.

Chamberlain was the most successful regular season player.

Duncan is the most successful offensively and defensively.

Why isn't Chamberlain the most successful offensively and defensively?

Because the All-Defensive Team was only selected in 1969, Russell only had the best defensive team, let alone Chamberlain, who didn't even have a defensive team.

However, overall, the strongest rookies, Chamberlain and Magic are still slightly ahead of Duncan.

Generally speaking, because there is no rookie who has succeeded in both the regular season and the playoffs, there is no answer to this controversy.

With the addition of Chen Xiao, this 6+1 melee turned directly into a 7+1.

The battle became even more massive.

The battle has also become more complicated.

However, this is on the American side.

Over there in China...

Do you think the best rookie in NBA history is controversial?

What a joke!

There are 7 first-team rookies, and only one 72-win rookie!

Therefore, there is no doubt that our Chen Xiao, our Giant Panda, is of course the best rookie in NBA history!

Don’t forget, my giant panda Xiaobao’s guarantee for the playoffs this season is the finals!

Don't say that Eastern China is not competitive in terms of food.

If you have the ability, why don't you reincarnate and come to the east?

If you can't reincarnate, don't beep too much!

Well, there is an inside taste.

In fact, after Chen Xiao won the Rookie of the Year, the Rookie First Team and the All-NBA First Team, the domestic flavor actually increased!

As for the entire domestic public opinion, Chen Xiao was simply swiping the screen.

"Xiao Chen, I am envious of my agency team now, but I am jealous of your agency team."

"Dayao, do you envy me?"

"envious."

Yao Ming has always been very honest.

Why not envious?

Forget about Rookie of the Year or whatever.

That was a while!

Yao Ming dreams about it every night.

Seeing Yao Ming like this, Chen Xiao laughed twice.

Dayao, let me tell you, compared to this, I have something more enviable for you!

"Ding, congratulations to the host for being selected to the All-Rookie Team of the Season (Rookie First Team) in a B-level official competition. As a reward, you will receive 800 basketball experience, 800 career points, and a B-level attribute potential card."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for being selected into the best team of the season (first team) in a B-level official competition. The reward is 1,200 basketball experience, 1,200 career points, and a B-level attribute potential card."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for winning a B-level personal trophy in an official competition. The reward will be 1,000 basketball experience, 1,000 career points, and a B-level attribute potential card."

Three personal awards, three B-level potential cards!

besides……

"Ding, congratulations to the host for winning a B-level official competition championship trophy. The award will be 3 career points, 1,500 basketball experience, and 1,500 career points."

NBA regular season championship reward: 3 precious career points!

Another great harvest!
