NBA: This flower path is a bit strong
Chapter 255
With much anticipation, the NBA officially announced the best rookie of the season.
The best rookie of the 96-97 season was Allen Iverson, the No. 1 pick from Georgetown University!
In the column of his award reason, only one of Iverson's weekly performances was given: 44.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 8.0 assists per game!
And one sentence:
"He received all the first votes for the best rookie."
Just ask if it's good enough!
This single-week average performance was later ranked sixth in history by the American media.
Before him, there was [Old Rogue] who had created a single-week average of 48.3 points, 12.0 rebounds and 5.5 assists in the 1989-90 season.
There was Lao Ke who had achieved an average of 51.5 points per game in the 2005-06 season - that is, the week when he scored 81 points in a single game.
Even Westbrook, Bird and Curry ranked ahead of Iverson!
But in terms of getting 40+ points per game in a single week in the rookie season, there is only one person in history, [Answer]!
Therefore, he undisputedly won all the first votes for the best rookie and was selected for the best rookie first team!
Interested Yanzu can check the record of Allen Iverson's four games against [Old Rogue] during his rookie period. He was simply the best among the rookies!
At the same time, in addition to Iverson, [Lone Wolf] Marbury, Shareef Abdul-Rahim, Marcus Camby, and Antoine Walker were all selected for the best rookie first team.
And Lao Ke, who was selected for the best rookie second team, is still a substitute for the Lakers!
Then, Raptors coach Brandon Malone, who missed the best coach last season, finally realized his dream this time and beat Phil Jackson to win the best coach honor this season!
After all, there is nothing to criticize about the record of 71 wins and the first place in the Eastern Conference!
Don't forget that it is unprecedented in NBA history to be able to turn a team that has just entered the league into a strong team with more than 70 wins in just two years.
Last season, because the Bulls' 72 wins were too dazzling, Phil Jackson deserved the award.
Then this season, the Raptors are equally dazzling, and because the Raptors have a weak foundation, Coach Deng deserves this award!
In the competition for the league's best defensive player (DPOY), Hanamichi was still slightly behind, and the [African Mountain] Dikembe Mutombo, who just defeated the Knicks with an underdog, won it.
Mutombo not only won the title of the season's block king with an average of 3.3 blocks per game this season, but also won the very valuable title of the best defensive player!
[African Mountain], who defeated [Glove] Payton and won the DPOY, was also shortlisted for the league's best defensive team while shaking his index finger and smiling.
And if Hua Dao remembered correctly, next year, Uncle Mu's average number of blocks per game did not decrease but increased, and his points also increased. He once again won the honorary title of Best Defensive Player and entered the Best First Defense Team again!
With the announcement of the Best Defensive Team, the other four players were also announced:
[Glove] ~ Gary Payton and [Old Rogue] ~ Michael Jordan on the back line;
[Postman] Karl Malone and [Little Overlord] Hua Dao on the forward position;
Hua Dao did not expect that he could be selected for the Best Defensive Team. In fact, he felt that he was good enough to enter the Second Team.
But when he knew who he defeated to enter the First Team, he suddenly felt that he could also sit in this Best Defensive Team!
That's right, the player that Hua Dao finally squeezed out was the Bulls' Pi Er!
In fact, in the selection of the Best Defensive Team First Team, Hua Dao's positioning really made the judges spend some time thinking.
At that time, the selection of the best first defense was still 2 guards, 2 forwards and 1 center.
If Hanamichi was classified as a center, he would squeeze out Uncle Mu, the best defensive player.
The best defensive player can't be selected for the best first defense team?
Are you kidding?
As of 1997, there were only 2 people in the NBA who won the best defensive player but were not shortlisted for the best defensive team.
One was Elvin Robertson of the Spurs in 1986; the other was Uncle Mu in 1995.
Uncle Mu: "No way, come again?"
Uncle Mu was not selected for the best first defense team as the best defensive player the year before last, so it's a bit unreasonable to come again this year.
After all, it was a bit inexplicable back then. You can't just bully an honest person all the time.
So, Hanamichi was classified as a forward.
In this position, as David Stern once said, there are only two people who can compete with Hanamichi.There are not many players.
Except for Karl Malone from the West, the rest are just a bunch of dwarfs.
In the original history, the head coaches of each team filled out the most votes, except for Karl Malone, and the popular Chicago Pierce.
(The best first-team defense was selected by the head coaches of all NBA teams before 2014 through voting. Each head coach must choose two lineups, but cannot choose players from the team he coaches)
But now with Hanamichi, in the two lineups selected by most coaches, Karl Malone and Hanamichi are the most voted names in the forward position.
Therefore, Hanamichi easily won the honor of the best first-team defense in the second year of entering the NBA.
The official explanation is very reasonable. After all, in 82 regular season games, the Raptors are one of the few teams that can control the opponent's average score below 90 points.
As the soul of this team, the defensive gate in the interior, Hanamichi's wonderful performance in assisting defense, blocking shots, and supplementary defense can be made into a long section of highlights.
It is worth mentioning that as the Raptors' perimeter defense pioneer, Doug Christie, who is a "henpecked" player, also received a few votes, but he was still a little behind [Crooked Mouth God of War] Payton and [Old Rogue].
But this also made Doug Christie, who is a Buddhist, find a goal to strive for after being excited. He finally has a little intention of pursuing the best defensive player and the best defensive team in the future!
So far, Huadao has become the first player in NBA history to be selected into the best defensive team.
In fact, if Huadao wins any honor in the NBA, he will be the first person in the Huajia family.
After all, since the establishment of the NBA, he is the only player in the Huajia family. In this regard, Huadao has set a precedent!
