Chapter 662 MVP Is the Most Popular (Second Update!)
"In the past, you just ignored me, but today I am too high for you! The Spurs team was killed by the let go Tang Reverse, and their management must want to die!"
"Don't tell me, I heard that Holt had a heart attack after the game, and he was rescued by emergency rescue!"
"You said that you have a bad heart, why you have to go to the away game to watch the game? This is not asking for it!"
"Although it's not good to say other things in front of life and death, I still can't help but want to say, well done!"
"I just feel sorry for Popovich and GDP. I heard that Duncan is likely to retire after this season."
"He has already won 6 championships in his career. That's enough. Players will age and retire from the stage. He shouldn't regret losing to Tang Tian's team!"
"By the way, there is news that Duncan also told Tang Tian that the future is yours!"
"I wipe, really?"
"Really, the ESPN reporter was standing not far away!"
"Shutchacha, the real hammer interferes with the management, the real hammer dominates the coaching staff, and now Duncan is the real hammer for the future. Is Tang really going to become LeBron's second?"
"No, no, I think these words are different. Duncan will retire soon. This is the expectation for Tang Tian. Don't mess with the rhythm!"
"These are not important anymore. The important thing is that the Pelicans have gone further than last year. They have reached the Western Conference Finals!"
"Yes, regardless of whether the Pelicans win the championship or not, this performance is already worth it this season!"
"Warriors and Pelicans, the remaining two super dark horses this season, the peak duel, I can't wait!"
...
The focus of the fans' discussion after the game was the just-concluded Game 7 of the Spurs and Pelicans, but some fans also mentioned the MVP.
The final results of the MVP selection will be out in a week, and Tang Tian's voice is very high at this time.
MVP selection is based on the regular season.
The Pelicans' record in the regular season ranks second in the West, better than the Cavaliers and Rockets, and Tang Tian's personal statistics are also much higher than Curry's.
Coupled with his fiery state in the playoffs, it is normal to have high voices.
Things are not going well off the court for the Pelicans entering the playoffs, and this time they finally have a chance to elevate.
The Western Conference finals between the Pelicans and the Warriors will not start until two days later. The next day, the Pelicans organized a daily training that is open to the public.
When the training was over, Tang Tian was naturally surrounded by reporters.
Among these questions, many reporters asked questions related to MVP.
Tang Tian is only 22 years old and 11 months old. If he can finally win the MVP, he will become the second youngest MVP after Ross.
"If I get the MVP, it will be very exciting for me and the Pelicans, and for the city of New Orleans and all the fans who support me, but even if I don't get it, I won't be so excited. Troubled, Steph, LeBron and James, they're all good as well."
Tang Tian's goal is naturally the MVP, but it's a little different from last season's scoring championship.
At that time, it was to motivate the team. They who were not strong needed this kind of personal honor to encourage them, which was a timely help.
But this season they are already strong enough, and the goal is naturally to hit the championship, even if they get the MVP, it will be icing on the cake.
So his attitude at this time is a typical "lucky for me, life for me".
After this attitude was exposed by the media, it received a burst of support from the fans.
NBA stars fight for the MVP every season. The players use all kinds of data, and the team also uses all kinds of methods.
Tang Tian, this is really a breath of fresh air.
Just when the content of Tang Tian's interview was hotly discussed by the outside world, another MVP candidate, James, also ushered in the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals.
It was by no means his first time playing Dong, but it was the first time he played against the Big Three in the Cavaliers. The pressure was incomparable to that before.
After the game started, the two teams fell into a bitter battle.
The Bulls are the Grizzlies of the Eastern Conference. To win it will definitely have to be peeled off or even broken.
The Cavaliers were injured in the first game, and they broke James' "right arm and right arm".
When the game reached the third quarter, Love had an arm fight with Noah's basket. Noah's swinging action eventually caused Love's arm to dislocate.
After Love retired from injury, the Cavaliers' game became more and more difficult to play. In the last quarter, James ran away to harvest the game, which allowed the Cavaliers to finally kill the Bulls.
The Cavaliers won their first home game, but the whole team was unhappy.
Because Love's post-match report showed that his shoulder was not only dislocated, but also accompanied by a torn rotator cuff and bone bruises.
This means that he will be directly reimbursed for the season!
The Big Three of the Cavaliers finally finished their run-in, but encountered such bad news in the conference finals, which was a huge blow to Cavaliers fans.
Many fans condemned Noah on social media, and the league subsequently announced the decision to impose an additional fine and one-game suspension on Noah.
But these are actually of little significance. Love will not be able to play the next game, which will directly lower the competitiveness of the Cavaliers.
This news makes people sad and sad, but it also makes people look forward to the Western Conference Finals that have not yet started.
After all, with the competitiveness of the Cavaliers, if anyone can make it out of the West, the championship ring is basically guaranteed.
The question is who can break out of the encirclement.
The day before the Western Conference Finals, the Pelicans flew to Oakland.
Oakland is adjacent to the Golden State, but not part of the San Francisco Bay Area.
Before 1971, the Warriors played their home games next door in San Francisco, one of the most prosperous areas in the United States.
However, due to the decline in team strength and poor attendance, the team was forced to move out to Oakland next door.
Afterwards, the Warriors have also been sinking, failing to reproduce their glory, and naturally they will never have the opportunity to return to the Bay Area.
But the strength of this season has made the Warriors' management ready to move.
The NBA is very realistic. If the team wants to develop better, in addition to having enough money for the owner, it must also have enough dazzling records.
Take the Clippers as an example. Before Paul arrived, it was a third-rate team that had no sense of existence as a Los Angeles team.
But Paul went to the team and quickly became the favorite to win the championship, and then he was acquired by Microsoft giant Ballmer, and he was booming.
If it weren't for Los Angeles, Ballmer would have already moved the team.
The Warriors now have such an unparalleled opportunity.
This season, the team's record has risen strongly, and its offensive style of play has once again attracted the love of the people in the Bay Area.
As long as they can finally win, the management has enough reasons to move the team back to the Bay Area, a place full of "gold" like its name.
Therefore, from top to bottom, the Warriors' belief in wanting to win the championship is stronger than that of the Pelicans.
This is destined to be a series where Mars hits the earth.
