Chapter 625 Consolation Prize

On April 18, the NBA official website reported that the winner of the 2009-10 season's Best Defensive Player was officially announced. Los Angeles Clippers' center Ji Guoqiu was elected DPOY for the second consecutive year. Currently, the Clippers are playing against the Memphis Grizzlies in the first round of the playoffs. Grizzlies head coach Hollins called Ji Guoqiu the "magic Pandas".

This season, Ji Guoqiu has set a number of historical records, among which defense accounts for a large part, and rebounds, free throws and blocks all lead the entire league. Not only that, Ji Guoqiu also set the highest free throw shooting percentage of the season, which is called "the strongest free throw machine in history" by fans.

Ji Guoqiu scored a total of 560 points in the selection, including 101 top votes. You should know that only 122 people participated in the voting. Dwight Howard of the Magic ranked second with 150 points, and Ji Guomi ranked third with 140 points.

"I think the standard for selecting MVP is to see how many points the players score, which is understandable, but defense can win championships and win games. So, I hope that those kids who like to play basketball will not regard scoring as the only ones. They can try other positions and roles more. Maybe you have not found your precious talent."

Clippers coach Dunleavy said: "I think this is a very high affirmation of Panda Brother. He is only 22 years old now, but he has won the award twice."

Ji Guochou was the youngest DPOY winner in history last season, and he still has a lot of opportunities to win this award again in the future. For any opponent, Panda Brother, who is in the inside, means a nightmare. The Clippers' opponent's shooting percentage this season is only 42.8%, although this is not his own credit. Ji Guochou, who guards the last level of the basket, has made great contributions.

Billups once worked as a teammate with another best defensive player Ben Wallace for many years. He has a very high opinion of Ji Guochou: "You know. Brother Panda will definitely win the award. He has a natural instinct for defense, and his talent is better than Ben." Teammate Barnes said: "If we want to win the game, we must play closely around the giant pandas. He is not only our defensive core, but also our organizational core. I have never seen a player like him. I think he is Bill Russell, an active player."

Ji Guomeng squatted in the corner at this moment and felt sad: "You can't see my assistant defense? Without me, I went into the wind. I would have made up for the gaps everywhere in the southeast, west and north. Can a dead panda be so beautiful?"

NBA's 2009-10 Rookie of the Year winner, Memphis Grizzlies' power forward Blake Griffin was elected as he wished.

In his rookie season, Griffin averaged 19.1 points, 8.6 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.0 blocks per game, which is no worse than the Animal Brothers' first season.

Grizzlies coach Hollins said: "From the day he joined the team, when other players saw him playing, they began to volunteer to follow his command."

The Grizzlies General Manager also said: "You will see him becoming a truly great inside player. He has fully demonstrated his abilities since the first week of the regular season, which is of great significance."

Blake Griffin's overall performance in his first season was very good. His running, his control of the ball, his shooting, his confidence, and the toughness he showed made the Grizzlies full of confidence in the future, just like Durant's meaning to the Thunder.

However, his opponent is not an ordinary person. Among all the 123 voters who participated in the vote, 51 voted for Griffin. Another superstar, Evans, lost to the team's record, but also got 45 votes and Curry got 20.

Evans is the strongest rookie centre-back in recent years. He is the scoring leader among this rookies, averaging 20.1 points per game, and is the fourth rookie in the past decade to score 20+ points in his rookie season. Evans ranked fifth in rebounds (5.3), second in assists (5.8), and second in steals (1.51).

In addition, Evans is also the fourth rookie in history to average 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists per game in the season. The previous three were Oscar Robertson, Michael Jordan and LeBron James.

From this perspective, Griffin's advantage is not great, just like Jordan and Olajuwon. Although everyone knows that Jordan has great potential, inside players are more important to a team. When most teams face choices, they still hope to choose an equally outstanding inside player. In the selection of awards, inside players are also advantageous.

Griffin's personality is exactly the opposite of his playing style. He is a relatively low-key and introverted player. After winning the award, he said briefly: "I hope to take on more roles as a leader and help the team as much as possible." Griffin's personality is relatively restrained, but it does not mean that he is soft. He dares to take responsibility and dares to show himself.

NBA started with the 2003 generation, these superstars are good in terms of personality, with few erratic and alternative guys like Rodman. Even Ji Guomo has not done anything that can damage the reputation of the league.

Others such as James, Anthony, Bosh, Howard, Paul, Durant, and Ji Guoqiu have never caused trouble for the league outside the court. They are all good-looking babies off the court. Secondly, Wade and Ji Guoxie are actually much better than older players. At most, some are called chickens and have no glorious records of fighting, but bad incidents such as C poison, X poison, and strong j have not happened at all. David Stern did indeed deserve praise in this regard. The image of NBA is also much better than in the 1980s and 1990s.

The winner of the 2009-2010 Best Sixth Man Award - Jamal Crawford.

In the evaluation of this award, players have more games as substitutes in the season than they play first, and Crawford has played as substitutes in the regular season in 79 games this season, which is fully in line with the selection criteria.

Crawford's performance this season is actually not as good as last season. His average playing time dropped to 28 minutes, and his personal data was only 16.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game. However, Crawford's shooting percentage has improved a lot compared to last season, with his shooting percentage reaching 45.5% for the first time and his three-point shooting percentage also reached 40.2%. Such data also set a personal record for Crawford. Among the many best sixth-man candidates, Crawford is the highest shooting percentage, so this award was finally awarded to him.

A total of 122 journalists and commentators from the United States and Canada participated in the Best Sixth Person Awards. Crawford finally won 82 first-choice votes and 455 points, far surpassing Jason Terry, who only got 24 first-choice votes and 290 points, and won the award without any controversy.

A dramatic scene occurred in the selection of the Fastest Progressive Player Award in the 2009-2010 season. The two who received the most votes were not the previous role players and young players, but the two newcomers who did not need this award to prove.

Ji Guomeng and Durant fought for one season in the title of "Scoring King" this season. In the end, Ji Guomeng relied on the team's stronger overall ability and killed a small schoolbag where someone in the Thunder competed for points.

This year, the Fox brother played the best season of his career. In this season, he averaged 33.2 points, 10.4 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game. In terms of average scores, he has increased by as much as 6.1 points compared to last season. Among all NBA players who are qualified for the selection, Ji Guomeng ranked second in the number of average score increases, but in terms of value, Ji Guomeng is obviously higher.

A player's average of 12 points per game to 20 points is definitely not as difficult as a player's average of 27 points to 33 points. After a player's average of more than 25 points, it will be much more difficult to improve. Players like Ji Guomeng who have increased from 27 points to 33 points in a season are rare in the entire NBA history.

Generally speaking, if the player's personal data has been greatly improved, the team's record will usually change in the opposite direction. However, there is no need to talk about the excellent performance of the Clippers this season, so this year, Clippers players will have a great advantage if they want to compete with others for honor. Crawford is like this, and Ji Guohumiliation will of course be no exception.

In the selection of the fastest-progress player award, the league invited up to 123 sports journalists and TV commentators from the United States and Canada to select them. They will write down the choices of the top three in their minds in the ballot. Ji Guomeng scored up to 615 points, and Durant scored 220 points. The difference between the two was not big. Ji Guomeng defeated Durant.

However, Ji Guohun, who won the award, was not happy. Why was this award so similar to a consolation prize?

Another award of the NBA for the year, the winner of the best coach of the season can be said to be one of the most unsurprising awards. In the 2009-2010 season, only one team in the league had a record of more than 60 wins, and the Clippers' 74 wins and 34 consecutive victories were enough for Old Dunleavy to win this honor again. Although everyone knows that Old Dunleavy is just a puppet coach who holds his thighs, what can I do? No one in the league can compete with him, that's enough.

The last big prize is of course the most valuable player award that is highly anticipated.

Kobe is so awesome. He has only won one in his life. The player who can win this award must be the best performer among all the players in the league this season, and the king of the king!

But unfortunately, this is a civil war in China, and the suspense is just a problem of foxes and pandas, and nothing else is wrong.

The last personal award announced on the NBA official website is the final ownership of MVP. If you look at the pictures, you will definitely not be able to tell which guy is in the photo. Fortunately, the jersey number can still be recognized. The clear number "6" brings Ji Guohuo a feeling, just like the shy video of him and Little Hermione was posted online. His mind was crashing at that time. Now what he wants most is to kill this dead panda!

The MVP winners of the 2009-2010 season were released, and the result was naturally expected. Anyway, it was normal for either brother or younger brother to get these two guys, and it makes sense that they can't get them.

Ji Guoqiu became the 10th player in history to be ranked first in the regular season MVP. In addition to him, Russell, Chamberlain, Kareem, Moses Malone, Larry Bird, "Magic" Johnson, Michael Jordan, Tim Duncan and Nash have been selected for the regular season MVP in a row.

However, for Ji Guoqiu, there are still records ahead that need to be surpassed. Currently, Bird, Russell and Chamberlain have won MVP three times in a row, which is a very difficult challenge.

Although Ji Guoqiu has won two MVPs in a row, he has only won two MVPs so far in his career. Jordan is the greatest player in NBA history. He has won five regular season MVPs in his career. However, Jordan is not the player who has won the most MVPs. Jabbar has won six MVPs in his career. Like Jordan, Bill Russell has also won five MVPs. Others, such as Chamberlain, have won four regular season MVPs, Moses Malone, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson, have won three.

It is worth mentioning that Ji Guoqiu has become the only player in the league to win MVP and the best defensive player for two consecutive seasons. If the Clippers continue to win the championship this year, Ji Guoqiu will become the only player in the league to win MVP, the best defensive player and the finals MVP for two consecutive seasons.

At this time, the Fox Brother must be very sad. His personal data is fully capable of competing for MVP, but his playing style is not appreciated by the judges, so it is easy to understand Brother Panda's victory.

Ji Guochou played 78 games this season. He averaged 21.2 points, 15.1 rebounds, 6.9 assists, 3.4 blocks, 3.2 turnovers, with a shooting percentage of 54.9%, a three-point shooting percentage of 42.6%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 98.1%.

How can such data be described in addition to using "dominance" as a metaphor?

Coupled with Ji Guoqiu's bright red 98.1% free throw shooting percentage, it was not unfair to lose the Fox brother. Ji Guoqiu secretly made a fuss on free throws, which became the decisive factor that overwhelmed Ji Guohuo. This panda is so sly, so what if I help you score points? I secretly score free throws. Are you stunned now?

The Los Angeles Clippers' giant pandas won this honor again after winning the regular season's Most Valuable Player last season. For the past 20 years, we will be surprised to find that only 5 MVPs were able to win the championship that year, while the remaining 8 MVPs have become tragedy.

From the 1990-91 season to the present, the NBA has produced 13 MVPs. In 1991 and 1992, Jordan won the regular season MVP again, and the Bulls defeated the Lakers and the Trail Blazers respectively in the past two years to win the championship. In the 1995-96 season, the Flying Man led the Bulls to an epic 72 wins and 10 losses, and the legendary record also made Jordan win the regular season MVP again. In the finals of the Bulls, the Bulls defeated the Supersonics in the finals and won the championship again. In the 1997-98 season, in the last year of the Bulls Dynasty, Jordan won the regular season MVP again, and the Bulls also defeated the Jazz in the finals and won three consecutive championships again.

In addition to Jordan, the other three people who won MVP and also won the championship are Olajuwon, O'Neal, Duncan and Ji Guoqiu last season.

In the past 20 years, except for the above four characters, the remaining 9 MVPs have all become tragedies.

Barkley won the regular season MVP in the 1992-93 season, but the Suns were defeated by the Bulls in the finals; David Robinson won the MVP trophy in the 1994-95 season, and the Spurs fell at the foot of the Rockets in the Western Conference Finals; Carl Malone was elected to the MVP in the 1996-97 season and 1998-99 season, but the Jazz failed in the Western Conference Finals and the Western Conference semi-finals respectively; in the 2000-01 season, it was Iverson's turn, and the ok group joined forces to bully the answer.

Next, Garnett in the 2003-04 season, Nash in the 2004-05 season and 2005-06 season, Nowitzki in 2007, and Kobe in 2008 all won the MVP, but was unable to stand at the championship podium.

MVP winners must first have a double harvest of data and record, so these superstars are often expected to be highly anticipated, but there are many variables in NBA, and MVP can only become a background for the season in many cases.

However, last year, Ji Guoqiu had proved that this curse had no effect on him. This year the Clippers are stronger, and they will not be afraid of this curse.
