Chapter 826 826. The best three consecutive months!

David Stern was a direct threat, so he made Anthony honest.

In this fight, the four evil teams in the league were really hit.

Portland Prison, Detroit Bad Boys Legion, New York Nursing Home, Denver Mining Bandits…

On January 31, the last day of this month, the Trail Blazers ushered in the Nuggets' challenge at home.

The Nuggets were suspended for four starters, Iverson, Anthony, Nene, Camby, Kenyon Martin was reimbursed for the season, and JR Smith and Reggie Evans from the substitute were suspended. Almost all of them could play and fight were banned.

The Trail Blazers beat the Nuggets throughout the whole process. The first quarter was 33-13, the second quarter was 30-28, and the Trail Blazers were relaxing at the beginning of the second quarter, reducing the playing time of other main players except Liu Xiu...

Liu Xiu played 33 minutes in the first three quarters, making 16 of 23 shots, including 4 of 7 three-pointers, plus 7 of 8 free throws, and scored 43 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals.

The score was 31 to 32 in the third quarter and 23 to 24 in the fourth quarter. In the end, relying on Liu Xiu's third consecutive game of 40+, the Trail Blazers beat the Nuggets 117 to 97, and their record increased to 36 wins and 11 losses!

On the Nuggets, there are 9 games in which the two guns are absent at the same time...

…

"The Beyond: Legendary Road series of missions.

Host 40+ times in a single game: 16 times, Kobe Bryant 40+ times in a single game: 14 times...

Mission Reward: 1 talent fragment."

After the final whistle rang, Liu Xiu received a prompt for the progress of the mission, leading Kobe two games ahead of 40+ times!

After losing to the Hornets on the night of the 28th, he triggered this mission and competed with Kobe for 40+ times this season.

He felt that this task was too difficult!

He now has more than 40 times than Kobe, but he has surpassed him by 7 times of 40+ in the last 10 games.

But since you have surpassed it, you may be ahead to the end!

The next day, the new month has arrived.

When the Nuggets left Portland and returned to Denver in the morning, the Trail Blazers also left Portland and came to Denver.

I chose to go in the morning this time because I wanted to get more time to adapt to the competition environment of the Denver Plateau.

At noon, in Liu Xiu's room, Randolph and the extrajudicial madman were there, and the only remaining seven people from Rose Bay gathered together to eat lunch prepared by the warden, and they would play games together in the afternoon.

While having lunch, turn on the TV and watch the live broadcast program jointly produced by the NBA official and Cable Television Sports.

The best awards for the month were announced in January.

Rookie of the Month.

Eastern Conference: Raptors' Yogga Gabayosa, averaged 7.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.2 steals per game.

Western Conference: Brandon Roy of the Timberwolves, averaged 17 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists and 1.8 steals per game in 14 games.

Coach of the Month, East: Sam Mitchell of the Raptors; West: Greg Popovich of the Spurs.

Player of the Month:

Eastern Conference: Dako Milicic of the Raptors, 10 wins and 5 losses, averaging 16.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 2.6 blocks per game.

Western Conference: Liu Xiu of the Trail Blazers, 12 wins and 4 losses, averaging 36.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 2 steals, and 0.56 blocks per game.

Although he expected to win the award, Liu Xiu was still very excited after winning the award.

10,000 healing value is obtained!

He won the Player of the Month Award for three consecutive months. Before him, Garnett, who only had 2003-04 seasons, won the Player of the Month Award for the West from December to February for three consecutive months.

Liu Xiu became the second player in NBA history to achieve such success!

But this achievement is only possible to be completed from the 2001-02 season. Before the 2001-02 season, the best month is not divided into the east and west. At that time, let alone the best month in three consecutive months, even the best month in two consecutive months is rare. Sometimes the regular season MVP may not necessarily perform at the best time for a single month.

For example, in the 95-96 season, the Bulls won 72 seasons, Jordan almost never had a best of the month. The only time he got was quite controversial. David Robinson played a little better that month.

Of course, even if this is a "restrictive achievement of contemporary basketball", Liu Xiu is still very excited. After a few years, only he and Garnett have done it.

But the east side is a bit too much.

What if there is no inside line in the East?

The best player in the month for three consecutive months is the center, and the three centers in the month won the best player in the month one after another!

Immediately afterwards, NBA Vice President Stu Jackson began to announce this year's All-Star Starter List.

The vote was over at 12 noon on January 30.

Eastern Firsts:

Defender: Wade had 2.21 million votes first, and Arenas had 1.53 million votes second.

Forward: Garnett ranked first with 2.55 million votes, James ranked second with 2.39 million votes.

Center: Yao Ming ranked first with 2.19 million votes.

Western starting lineup:

Defender: Liu Xiu ranked first with 2.91 million votes, and Kobe ranked second with 2.39 million votes.

Forward: Anthony ranked first with 2.03 million votes, Duncan ranked second with 1.81 million votes.

Center: Kwame Brown ranked first with 2.26 million votes.

The vote counts of the first and second periods were announced, and Liu Xiu was both the vote count. When the vote counts of the second period were announced, he was already 300,000 ahead of Garnett. This time, the vote count was very stable.

When the votes were announced, he received a system prompt that the All-Star starter rewarded 10,000 healing value, and the All-Star vote king rewarded 20,000 healing value.

During the announcement of the votes, Liu Xiu and others heard the clamor from the window not far from the next door, which was the voice of Kwame-Brown.

When the league put Duncan and the Bully to the forward position, Kwame Brown had already had expectations for the All-Star starter.

In the first and second phases, Kwame Brown was far ahead of Wang Zhizhi, who was second place, so Kwame Brown recently worked harder to play... But after being selected, he was still particularly excited.

Liu Xiu guessed that the league wanted to "promote new players" in the forward position.

Garnett's popularity once he goes to a good team in the market, it will be a force to win the ticket king.

James, the new generation of popularity king in the East.

Carter is no longer the most popular player in the Pistons. Not to mention stealing the limelight with Yao Ming, Billups' popularity has gradually caught up with Carter.

McGrady is performing a soap opera with the Nets, but her popularity has not declined, but she has no popularity that has been rising in the previous years.

These two cousins ​​will definitely not be able to compete with Garnett and James.

But in the West, Anthony was selected as the All-Star starter, and there were signs of last season.

Liu Xiu guessed that the league did not expect that Duncan's performance could increase at the age of 30, and his popularity could increase again!

The league probably wants to promote Kwame Brown and free up the center position, and there are fewer and fewer good centers in the West.

But I didn't expect that the little bully was so popular that Duncan could not do...

It is that Anthony has been banned and the ban will not end in March...

Liu Xiu was not curious for a long time. After the 10 All-Stars video highlights were released, Stu Jackson said: "Camelo Anthony's suspension will not affect his participation in the All-Star Weekend event. Please rest assured that the fans who voted for him..."
