NBA: Starting with James Harden

The home court was swapped. In order to ensure that the players had enough physical strength to play high-quality games, the games of G2 and G3 were played two days apart.

Although the flight from Texas didn't take too long, it was already late at night when the Mavericks arrived at the San Antonio hotel. The

Mavericks' winning streak changed the wind direction of the fishing reel environment. Almost all media believed that the Mavericks would advance, and the media showed a typical fence-sitting style.

The Mavericks are all veterans, and the general hype of the media is unlikely to have much impact on their preparations. Everyone's mentality is very calm.

Compared with other NBA cities, San Antonio is really a small city.

The Spurs owner started out by selling tractors. He can be said to be the poorest among NBA team owners.

The success of the Spurs is largely due to their management and coaching staff.

Since Duncan was picked in 1997, the Spurs have built a team around Duncan and won many honors!

Such Spurs are deeply loved by San Antonio fans, and Spurs fans are very loyal.

Because the Spurs are lagging behind, many loyal Spurs fans frantically disturbed the rest of the Mavericks players at the door of the hotel late at night.

They brought all kinds of music and musical instruments.

When Li Zhen was sleeping in the hotel, he heard the sound of speakers and various musical instruments outside the hotel.

Although these sounds were not loud, they were somewhat disturbing and some people who have trouble sleeping were easily affected.

The disruptive fans dispersed only after the hotel security and the Mavericks called the police.

In general, the sleep on the first night in San Antonio was not very good.....

The next afternoon, the Mavericks went to the training hall near the hotel.

There were already many reporters waiting in front of the training hall.

""Click, click, click!"

The players got off the bus one by one, and head coach Carlisle was the last one to get off.

Carlisle was photographed by reporters while yawning and looking unhappy.

Carlisle is prone to insomnia due to stress. He finally fell asleep last night but was disturbed by that group of fans. Then he had to call the staff to deal with it.

He tossed and turned for half the night.

It was not the first time for Carlisle to visit San Antonio, and he did not expect that the Spurs fans would be so disgusting this time. The

Mavericks players went in first under the protection of the security guards, and Carlisle was stopped by reporters alone.

A Spurs reporter asked,"Coach, how many losses do you plan to accept when you come to this place?"

Hearing this question, Carlisle got angry:"Sorry? Losing, I don't plan to lose, we will sweep our opponents!"

Carlisle is usually known for his gentleness, but today he burst into anger because he did not sleep well.

"Crack, crack, crack!!"

"Did I hear you correctly? You said sweep the Spurs?"

"Yes, 4-0!"Carlisle said firmly.

After answering the second question, Carlisle turned around and left. He did not reply.

Because Carlisle was in a bad mood, the Mavericks were also affected. During training, as long as the tactics were not in place, Carlisle's roar would come immediately. Even Li Zhen was scolded.

After training, the Mavericks returned to the locker room. Terry, Li Zhen and Marion chatted together.

The three also talked about Carlisle's emotional problems today.

"Is the coach angry today?"Terry complained. He was scolded the most today.

"Maybe I didn't get enough rest last night. Men have to have sex once a month."Marion joked

""Fuck, this is even possible?" Li Zhen was quite impressed by Marion's train of thought, he could even say such a sexy thing

""Ahem!!" Nowitzki suddenly coughed.

Marion turned around and was horrified to find Carlisle behind him....

"You should stay and train for a while. Your shooting percentage has dropped significantly in the past two games."Carlisle was very straightforward in his revenge!

Marion quickly ran away with a bitter face.....

Terry also stood up and left. Carlisle was in a bad mood today and might be scolded again later.

Seeing the two leave, Li Zhen was ready to find an excuse to get out of the way, but Carlisle signaled Li Zhen not to leave.

Seeing Li Zhen, Carlisle put away his serious face and said with a smile:"Li, I have good news for you!"

"What news?"Li Zhen was curious about what news would change Carlisle's mood.

"The latest news is that you have won the Rookie of the Year award. The league will officially announce it tomorrow at noon. I will tell you first."Carlisle said with a smile

""Uh!"

Hearing this, Li Zhen remembered that it was still the Stern era, not the Silver era.

During the Stern era, all the major awards were presented during the playoffs, and the popularity was very high.

The awards at the Oscars ceremony during the Silver era were not very popular, and Li Zhen had almost forgotten the time of the awards.

Although Li Zhen knew that this award would be given to him sooner or later, when he really heard the news from Carlisle, he was still a little overjoyed!

""Pa pa pa!!" In the locker room, teammates started cheering!!

"Li, congratulations!!"Nowitzki on the side immediately applauded!

"Well done, rookie!!" Kidd also applauded

"What, best rookie? Good job, man!!"Haywood also came over excitedly and high-fived Li Zhen to celebrate!!

Because the"Best Rookie of the Year" went to the Mavericks, the entire Mavericks locker room was in high spirits.

The Mavericks thought that it was reasonable to give this award to Li Zhen.

Li Zhen was so amazing this season that the league had to make an exception for him. At

12 noon the next day.

The official Twitter of the NBA announced:"After voting by 121 global reporters and commentators, Dallas Mavericks player No. 6 Li Zhen was unanimously elected as the"Best Rookie of the Year" for the 2009-2010 season!"

The official Twitter of the Mavericks also immediately retweeted:"Official announcement! Li Zhen won the best rookie of the 2009-10 season!!"

As soon as this official announcement came out, Li Zhen was once again on the headlines of the day.

The official media"Sports News" also immediately broadcast this news.

The fans who were watching the news were shocked by the news.

Although they also knew that Li Zhen would be the best rookie of the year, when the day really came, the fans immediately posted on major forums to celebrate.

《Congratulations to Li Zhen, the first person to be rejected from the draft!!》

《Use your strength to justify yourself, #TheRoadTo...#》

《Li Zhen won the Best Rookie award, making up for Yao Ming's regret!》

《The undrafted player used his strength to make the league change the rules for him!!》

《Unprecedented! Unanimous election! The undrafted player won the highest rookie award! 》

In fact, before the official announcement of the league, reporters got the news late last night, and they quickly prepared the manuscript.

It was released almost at the same time as the official announcement, which pushed the popularity of this news very high......

Li Zhen's winning of the"Rookie of the Year" has too many hidden fans' flash points.

He was an undrafted player who didn't even qualify for the election at the beginning, but Li Zhen used his own strength to force the league to modify the loopholes in the rules for him!!

Evans, Jennings, Curry and other rookies will no longer question this rule after playing against Li Zhen.

If they win the Rookie of the Year, they will probably feel that it is too hot to take it. Li Zhen has suppressed too many people with his personal ability this season.
