Chapter 209 Honor Slam

In addition to the major awards selected by the media, there are also some honors that players themselves win, such as scoring kings, assist kings, rebounding kings, etc.

In the 2009-2010 season, there were only four players in the league who averaged more than two steals per game, namely Chris Paul's average of 2.1 games, Monta Ellis' average of 2.2 games, Rajon Rondo's average of 2.3 games and Wu Huang's average of 2.6 games. So there is no need to say who is the "stealer king" of this season.

Chris Paul won the league's steal king for the first two seasons, with averaging 2.8 and 2.7 steals per game, which is higher than Wu Huang's steal data this season. Unfortunately, the Queen Bee suffered a serious injury this season and its explosive power has declined. Stealing is a statistic that tests the explosive power of the players. Otherwise, Wu Huang's average of 2.6 steals per game may not be able to become the steal king.

Apart from the steal king, there is no other list. The "scoring king" was finally won by Kevin Durant, and the "assisted king" was once again won by Nash, who was late for a big shot. The "rebound king" and the "block king" are naturally the toys of the peak Warcraft. This is Howard's third "rebound king" in a row and the second consecutive season to win the "block king". Many media are optimistic that he broke the previous record of four consecutive rebound kings set by Garnett, and even challenged Rodman's record of seven consecutive rebound kings that year.

New York fans believe that Wu Huang will be able to compete for the throne of the "scoring king". His rookie season will be higher than Durant of that year. Perhaps he will be able to join the competition for this list next season.

Wu Huang is also very confident about this. He feels that Durant should not be his opponent next season. This is not that Durant's scoring ability is not as good as him, but that he and Westbrook are in the same team. If he wants to maintain an average of 30+ points per game, this is really a task comparable to the five-star difficulty.

Espn also reported that Wu Huang also set a record this season, he averaged 3.5 three-pointers per game this season. He scored a total of 279 three-pointers, which broke the record of Ray Allen's 269 three-pointers in the regular season of the 2005-2006 season, becoming the player with the largest total of three-pointers in the league history.

"Next season, I hope I can score 300+ three-pointers." Wu Huang responded so. He was unwilling to talk deeply about his three-point record, because he felt that 279 three-pointers in a single season were nothing. Since he could achieve this in his first season, this record would not last long. Let's talk about it after he scored 300+ three-pointers in a single season.

The night before the Knicks' attack at Atlanta, Wu Huang rejected the temptation of several girls and chose to accumulate strength in his apartment. He wanted to keep all his energy in his first playoff game. Tomorrow is the first playoff game of his career. You must not be weak in the game, even if he has confidence in his recovery ability, what if this game is two or three overtimes?

In the intensity of the playoffs, few players can withstand two overtimes. If this happens, his recovery ability is the key to breaking the situation, so a slight energy must be left to the game, and the winner is always reserved for those who are prepared.

At noon on the 18th, the Knicks team arrived at the airport. They will take their own plane to Atlanta, and the team owner James Dolan also set off with the team.

Interestingly, this old version of the Knicks was drunk at noon. When he was temporarily staying at the airport, he actually revealed that he was negotiating a contract for the renovation of Danxin special plane with several aircraft manufacturers. The Knicks will become the first NBA team to install a catapult device on a special plane in three years, which will prevent the Knicks players from never having a "Munich Air Crash" disaster similar to Manchester United.

The media were shocked when they heard this. If Dolan hadn't been drinking too much, it would have been a big deal. But no matter how you think about it, it would not be real.

Civil aviation passenger planes in the world are not equipped with parachutes. The biggest reason is that most civil aviation passenger planes fly at an altitude of more than 6,000 meters, far exceeding the normal parachute height. Even if the cabin door can be opened, passengers will face high-altitude oxygen, cold, high-speed airflow blowing, etc., and the probability of death is much greater than the survival rate. Secondly, civil aviation passenger planes basically use supercharged cabins, which means that if the cabin door is opened at a high altitude, passengers will fly out like shells due to air pressure. For specific situations, please refer to the Hollywood blockbuster screen.

Therefore, the high-altitude supercharged parachute diving of civil aviation passenger aircraft requires a complete set of catapult devices. This device is not realistic on civil aviation aircraft because the cost is too high. However, some Saudi tyrants and special planes of politicians from various countries have this device. If Dolan is willing to invest a lot of money, it sounds a bit incredible for the team to modify a special plane with catapult devices. It sounds a bit incredible, but it is not impossible. It just makes people feel that others are stupid and have a lot of money. However, the team staff must have agreed with each other, because they will not be in any danger.

In addition to talking about the unreliable special plane, James Dolan also told the media: "This year's Best Newcomer Award is obviously a Hugo. Whether people think there is competition or not, we don't think so anyway." In fact, a month ago, Dolan ordered the Knicks to specially print 20,000 T-shirts with the words "Best Rookie Hugo" and 10,000 stickers with the portrait of Wu Huang, to be distributed for free to fans who bought season tickets for them to use at home in the playoffs.

This is really too ostentatious? But for Emperor Wu, it is really difficult for him to keep a low profile, and there is no suspense about the award.

Wu Huang also smiled at the airport: "My playoff debut is about to be held, but I am not nervous, I am just a little excited. You can look at each of us, every pair of eyes, and how happy it is to see us reach the playoffs." Then he emphasized, "But we are not satisfied yet. We hope to win the silver trophy (referring to the Eastern Conference Championship Trophy), but I think the golden trophy is definitely better than the silver (champion trophy)."

Of course the media would not believe these words. This is just a bold statement by most team leaders before going out. The cruel reality is that the Knicks can win a away game in Atlanta, which is already a very amazing result.

A thoughtful reporter also photographed the backpack of sneakers and backpacks carried by Wu Huang at the airport. UA began designing his playoff version of sneakers for Wu Huang two months ago. The pair of hugo-one-elite sneakers worn by Wu Huang who won two MVPs in the All-Star Game left a deep impression on the fans. The sales volume rose steadily after the All-Star Game. So UA launched the last playoff version of sneakers at the end of the Hugo generation.

At this time, Wu Huang brought his two new pairs of hugo-one-"playo", which belongs to the branch version of the hugo generation. It is also the last version. The two color schemes of this time are black and blue and gray and white. The upper is decorated with water ripples, and the details are decorated with water blue. The tongue of Wu Huang's number "14" was added for the first time. This is not a simple number, it has become a representative symbol of a unique group of people. The new color scheme gives this pair of exclusive playoff sneakers.

hugo-one-"playo" uses several new technologies that were not used in the first two versions, and should be some preheating for the second-generation sneakers. The difference between this pair of playo is that the original material is partially redesigned, providing a lighter body and better support performance. It adopts optimized cushioning technology, has a better dynamic gripping system and cushioning performance, and integrates modern aesthetics to set a new standard for practical sneakers.

Wu Huang had experienced the performance of this new pair of sneakers before. The grip ability when the emergency stops and gets up has not been greatly improved, but it is indeed lighter. The cushioning performance is only slightly improved. The biggest improvement is the wrapping feeling of the sneakers. UA can make sneakers so light. The protective performance has not been reduced, which is the biggest improvement in Wu Huang's opinion.

In general, the weight of these sneakers is about 20% lighter, but not only does not decrease in performance, but also has a slight improvement, which is a very big improvement in itself. Just like the current mobile phones are getting thinner and thinner, but the battery life has not decreased, but it has improved.

UA has launched three versions of sneakers for Wu Huang. They all belong to the Hugo generation and use roughly the same technology. The biggest difference is the different color schemes. Although this playoff version has been innovated in materials, in other aspects, it can only be said to have a small seam and patched up. The three pairs of sneakers are the original version: ua-hugo-one, All-Star version: ua-hugo-one-"elite", and the playoff version: ua-hugo-one-"playo", with prices of US$139, US$169, and US$199 respectively.

By the end of the regular season, Wu Huang's signature sneakers sold $110 million worldwide. If calculated from January this year, Wu Huang's sneakers sold a total of $45 million in the first quarter of 2010.

UA conservatively estimates that when Hugo second-generation sneakers are released next season, Wu Huang's total sneakers sales in 2010 will reach between US$150 million and US$200 million, which may reach the sales of sneakers of Kobe and James.

"Fox" analysts commented on Wu Huang's sneakers sales: "First of all, it's beautiful, these sneakers are really good-looking. In addition, his star status is continuing to rise, and media attention has also helped him sell more shoes. Finally, the market share in Asia pushed up Hugo's global sneakers sales."

Wu Huang's sneakers are indeed in Asia. His sneakers sold only about 15 million US dollars in the first quarter of this year. Many media believe that the poor sales in North America are because UA priced too high for Wu Huang's sneakers. James and Kobe's sneakers were only sold for about 150 US dollars at this time. However, Wu Huang's playoff version of sneakers reached 200 US dollars for the first time. Americans are not all rich, and not everyone is willing to spend 200 US dollars to buy a pair of sneakers that can only be worn for one or two months in an outdoor stadium.

That’s right, the trick of Wu Huang’s sneakers is that they are a typical pair of indoor basketball game sneakers. Anyone who wears his sneakers to play outdoors will definitely be a rich man!

On the afternoon of the 18th, all the individual awards and best teams of the NBA 2009-2010 season were announced on the NBA official website. At this time, the Knicks players had just got off the plane, and Wu Huang and his agent Brandon walked off the Knicks' special plane together.

The Knicks' special plane did not receive outsiders, but Wu Huang has the qualification to open the back door. Besides, there are three players in the Knicks now under Brandon, and three players plan to switch to Brandon's agency. With Wu Huang's help this season, Brandon is moving towards the direction of the NBA economic tycoon.

Atlanta is the base camp of the Morez family, and they have many family businesses here. So as soon as Wu Huang walked into the hotel where the team checked in, he met the other three brothers of the Morez family who moved in one day in advance. Of course, there was also a tangled Kroh Morez who followed him, but the little girl was blocked by her four tall brothers. It is estimated that no one would find out if she was kidnapped.

Wu Huang browsed the awards announced by the league in the hotel, first of which was the selection results of the "Most Valuable Player of the Regular Season" (MVP). LeBron James from the Cavaliers was elected as he wished.

There is no doubt about this award. After the US media broke the news in advance that James had obtained the MVP, everyone already knew the result.

Today, the official finally announced that LeBron once again "rule the world", and he also became the 10th player in history to be ranked first in the regular season MVP. In addition to James, Russell Chamberlain, Jabbar, Moses Malone, Bird, "Magic" Johnson, Jordan, Duncan and Nash have been selected for the regular season MVP in a row.

James won 111 of the first-place votes in total, which also set a new record in six years. Since Garnett won 120 first-place votes in 2004, no player has been more dominant than James this season.

It is worth mentioning that in the selection of the most valuable players, Wu Huang also scored 3 points, ranking fifth among all players. Ji Guo was unexpected by himself.

The exact data for this selection is: among a sports media and television commentator from the United States and Canada, four people actually voted for him. In the selection, each first place got 10 points, the second place got 7 points, the third place got 5 points, the fourth place got 3 points, and the fifth place got 1 point. The 25th players ranked in the Most Valuable Player Selection were: Kobe Bryant (560 points). Howard (450 points), Wade (340 points), and Wu Huang (3 points).

Kobe was a little embarrassed because he ate a "duck egg" and he didn't get the first place vote, but he still beat Warcraft, the Flash and the Emperor of New York in terms of total scores. He ranked second.

The winner of the "Best Defensive Player" is also without any suspense. Orlando Magic center Dwight Howard was elected for the second consecutive year. For Howard, all he has to do now is to improve his offensive skills so that he can challenge LeBron James in the MVP competition.

"I think the standard for selecting MVP is to see how many points the players score, which is understandable, but defense can win the championship and win the game." Howard said in an interview with Orlando that he averaged 18.3 points per game this season. If he can add five points on this basis, he is qualified to attack James.

Howard scored a total of 526 points in this selection, including 95 top votes. You should know that only 122 people participated in the vote. Josh Smith of the Hawks ranked second with 130 points, and Iguodala of the Knicks ranked third with 120 points.

Wu Huang got three top votes in this score. He ranked 10th among all players with 40 points. It is estimated that there must be Chinese in this MVP and DPOY selection, otherwise how could he have top votes?

The winner of the "Best Rookie" is even more suspenseful, and Emperor Wu doesn't have to look at it. This award must be his.

Knicks coach D'Antoni got off the plane and said in an interview with reporters: "From his first day of joining the team, when the veterans saw him playing, they began to volunteer to listen to his command. You will definitely see him become a true super defender in the near future, and I will never doubt that he can become a Hall of Fame superstar."

Among all the voting votes, a total of 121 people voted for the top vote for Wu Huang, almost making him the first player to win the award with a unanimous vote. In the media's opinion, Wu Huang is no longer a new star "like who he is", he is the unique superstar in the future.

The "Best Rookie Lineup" is naturally indispensable. The New York Emperor, who won the Rookie of the Year Award, is the best candidate in this lineup. The other four are Bucks defender Brandon Jennings, Warriors defender Stephen Curry, Kings' new core Tyrek Evans and Bulls' forward forward Ty Gibson.

The 2009-2010 season's All-A-Season rosters finally LeBron James and Dwight Howard scored the full mark in the selection, while Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant and Dwyane Wade also entered the first team of the All-A-Series with an absolute overwhelming advantage.

But an accident happened again. Wu Huang was selected into the second team with high scores that both the media and himself had not expected. He scored a full 20 points more than the Jazz's Deron Williams.

First lineup:

Forward: LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers.

Forward: Kevin Durant, Oklahoma City Thunder.

Center: Dwight Howard, Orlando Magic.

Defender: Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers.

Defender: Dwyane Wade, Miami Heat.

Second lineup:

Forward: Cameron Anthony, Denver Nuggets.

Forward: Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas Mavericks.

Center: Amal Studmeier, Phoenix Suns.

Defender: Steve Nash, Phoenix Suns.

Defender: Wu Huang, New York Knicks.

Third lineup:

Forward: Tim Duncan, San Antonio Spurs.

Forward: Paul Gasol, Los Angeles Lakers.

Center: Andrew Bogut, Milwaukee Bucks.

Defender: Joe Johnson, Atlanta Hawks.

Defender: Deron Williams, Utah Jazz.

The selection of "Best Defensive Team" is different from other events. This lineup is selected by the league's incumbent head coaches. They have more say in the players' defensive abilities than journalists and commentators. At the same time, each head coach has no right to select players of their team, which means that each player has 29 valid votes, the first vote is counted as 2 points and the second vote is counted as 1 point.

In the selection, Howard once again won 28 first votes, with the highest score of 55 points in the league. The Magic Center is the first player in history to defend the league's rebounding and blocking king at the same time, and is also the fifth player in history to crown the rebounding king for more than three consecutive seasons. Under Howard's leadership, the Magic lost only 95.3 points per game, ranking fourth in the league. After Howard, James's 42 points, Rondo's 35 points, Kobe's 30 points and Gerald Wallace's 25 points.

Emperor Wu never expected this time. He originally thought that this list would definitely not have his own share, but the coaches in the league did not think so. Although he could not defend all-around point guards like Billups and Delon, he also made more counterattacks in a mess.

These are very important, and they are also seen in the eyes of the opponent's coaches. When voting, the teams that were harmed by Wu Huang's defense will naturally throw some votes on him. So he actually scored 24 points in this selection, including 6 first votes, and his teammate Iguodala got the points, which was not as high as his.

Best Defensive Team First Team:

Center: Dwight Howard (Magic) 55 points

Small forward: LeBron James (Cavs) 42 points

Point guard: Rajon Rondo (Celtics) 35 points

Scoring guard: Kobe Bryant (Lakes) 30 points

Power forward: Gerald Wallace (Boncats) 25 points

Best team 2:

Organizational defender: Wu Huang (Knicks) scored 24 points.

Scoring guard: Andre Iguodala (Knicks) points.

Center: Tim Duncan (Spurs) 21 points.

Small forward: Josh Smith (Hawks) 19 points.
