Six hundred and third upset(2/2)

Because he found that he couldn't bring this group of people to the playoffs!

If nothing else happens, he will definitely run away this summer.

At this time, he has to be lucky that because his market is not very good, he signed a one-year contract with the Timberwolves, otherwise he would not be able to leave even if he wanted to.

So in the Western Conference Finals, the final matchup between the two sides will be Warriors VS Lakers that many people have expected.

The process was a bit tortuous, but the two teams in the East and West had a lot of topics to talk about, and they all had a lot to say.

However, before the two sides started fighting, the third batch of rewards of the season and the most important rewards were announced at this time.

Lin Ying beat Curry, James, Harden, Westbrook and others to become the MVP of the 2017~2018 season!

This is also the fifth MVP trophy of his career!

And he got over 40% of the votes!

This result can be said to be both unexpected and reasonable.

What was unexpected was this voting ratio. With all the stars shining this year, many people thought the vote would be very close.

But facts have proven that the record of 75 wins is too significant.

Just like it is difficult to imagine the 72-win Bulls, 73-win Warriors, and 74-win Nets, the MVP ultimately did not give these teams the core role.

After winning this MVP, Lin Ying's career honor accumulation has become very close to Jordan's with 5 championships, 5 MVPs, 4 AMVPs, and 5 FMVPs.

What's more worth mentioning is that it only took Lin Ying 11 years to accomplish this, which was faster than Jordan's accumulation.

This is why after Jordan, Lin Yinghui is considered by the outside world to possibly surpass Jordan in a real sense.

Because he doesn't need to hold a team together, he can already do it faster than Jordan.

The question now is when Lin Ying can do this.

In this context, although Lin Ying has said before that Jordan will always be the "GOAT", the media still unconsciously promoted him to a very high position.

The kind of height that even James fans have no chance to touch.

Shortly after the MVP award, the conference finals kicked off.

It’s still the Eastern Conference finals side that starts first.

Because the first two rounds were easy, many people predicted before the game that the Hornets would not cause any trouble to the Nets.

After all, Butler, the core of the Hornets, was Lin Ying's younger brother, and his talent was also suppressed by the Texas Twins.

But after the game actually started, many people discovered that they were all wrong.

Because the feeling played by the Hornets is so similar to the Heat team during Butler's era in history.

Their talents may not be the best, but they have developed their own style, a tough style.

Butler won the PK with Walker and became the new leader of the Hornets. His toughness infected his teammates and eventually turned into the team's toughness.

And you can't define this style with conventional understanding, because when you look at this team, you will find that their talent is indeed relatively mediocre.

Sometimes you may even sigh: Can someone like Butler lead the team to the finals? With the talent of the Hornets, is it possible to beat the Nets?

Or more directly: Butler, where is the strength?

The game in G1 was intense, and the Hornets continued to fight the Nets until the fourth quarter.

But just like when James reached the Finals for the first time, it meant they had a chance to win.

The Hornets did better than the Celtics and 76ers, but they still had no chance of beating the Nets.

Because in the decisive fourth quarter, the Nets have too many people who can handle the game.

Throughout the fourth quarter, the Nets' overall shooting rate exceeded 60%!

The Hornets played hard, very hard, but they had the feeling that they were humans and their opponent was a god.

So in the end, the Nets won the game easily.

The game was uneventful, but compared to the game itself, the change in Jordan's face while watching the ball from the sidelines was more exciting.

His face was flushed throughout the first three quarters, and he felt more excited than when he was playing.

After all, he was a supreme god when he was playing basketball, and he never failed again after he stepped into success.

But during his years as a boss, he never really won.

So even he would be excited to have a chance to end 75 wins before him.

Even at certain times his emotions were very complicated.

Because he wants to recruit Durant, but because of the previous "Butler Formula", there is a high probability that Butler will be sent away.

But now that Butler is playing so well, he feels a little reluctant to let go.

But by the last quarter, Jordan's flushed face gradually calmed down, and in the end he sat there in deep thought.

Basketball is such a strange thing, there are passions and upsets, but when the strongest teams compete against each other, talent plays the biggest role most of the time.

G1 in the Eastern Conference finals was a close match, but G1 in the Western Conference finals can be described in four words: thrilling.

The reason why I say this is because not long after the two sides started playing, the Warriors suffered a heavy blow.
