Chapter 1938 Awards Season, the Ignored Lakers?

Winning!

Ji Feng shook his head on the bench and said the above sentence, and then as expected, he was GANKed by Kobe beside him.

"Ji Feng, you are really crazy!" Kobe hugged Ji Feng's neck and smiled happily.

The two even let the photographer take a group photo of them in a relaxed mood. This has become a traditional project over the years. After every series victory, the two will find an angle on the bench to take a group photo until they retire. By the time, I guess I will have accumulated many, many cards.

Behind them in the background were sighing Jazz fans.

After being easily won two games by the Lakers, the battered Jazz fans shouted slogans to defend Utah.

It's just a pity that they are not strong enough after all.

On the 5th and 7th, the Lakers easily won two games in a row in Utah. Although they only won by 7 points in the fourth game, Kobe Bryant only played one quarter, Ji Feng only played two quarters, and the Lakers substitutes played the entire last quarter. They fought against the Jazz's main force and still won, which shows how big the gap between the two teams is.

The Lakers also successfully completed the sweep with a big score of 4-0 and successfully advanced to the next round. They also became the first team to advance to the second round of this year's playoffs.

Really are…

Not surprising at all!

"Are you guys here because of my poor performance in this game?"

Facing the reporters who came after the game, Ji Feng teased himself like this. His playing time in this game hit a new low in the playoffs, only 19 minutes. His playing time in the last game was so low, it has to be traced back to... Sorry, never happened before , this is the first time Ji Feng has played less than 20 minutes in a single game in the playoffs.

Ji Feng even admires himself. What is he doing? Reverse paddling. Others take a break during the regular season and go out in the playoffs. But this year, when he goes out in the regular season, he starts paddling in the playoffs. It's really amazing. .

And his data is only 15 points, 6 assists, 5 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block.

If it is the kind of marketing account that does not watch the game, it has already begun to use various angles to criticize Ji Feng. It is estimated that Ji Feng is no longer working, and Ji Feng has been abandoned. This has really happened in the past.

Of course, Ji Feng didn't care what the media said, after all, nothing could affect the fact that they won.

And Jazz has been defeated.

"I still have to keep practicing hard!" Looking at Ji Feng's leaving figure, Millsap thought silently. This series has completely shattered his pride.

Originally, Millsap was very proud of himself. Originally, a low-ranking rookie became the core of a team from being a low-ranking pick, and then led such a team to achieve the playoffs in such a brutal competition in the Western Conference. Millsap's dream should be expanded.

But in this series, the Lakers swept them with the minimum cost, making him realize that so much is not enough. He still has a long way to go, at least he is still too far away from the top stars and promotion teams of this era. .

But if Ji Feng heard what he said, he would definitely advise him to give up Sao Nian, or find a reliable team to transfer to. There is no future in the Jazz. Look at their lineup, except Hainan. Ward, no one has potential, like the Thunder and Grizzlies. No matter how many times they are eliminated, they can always shout: "I will come back!"

After all, they are young, motivated, and have a bright future, but this Jazz has almost no future. In this series, they have learned almost nothing except the posture of being crushed. This is the reality.

Although it is uncomfortable, this is the cruel side of this alliance.

For example, the Nuggets, who share the same fate as them, are now one step away from being eliminated. This is the gap.

However, Ji Feng didn't have time to pay attention to their opponents. At this moment, except for the Lakers, who had simply reached the Western Conference semifinals, several other groups of opponents were fiercely fighting. It is estimated that it would take at least 5 games to decide the winner, and the Lakers also I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

On the 8th, the Lakers returned to Los Angeles. Master Jackson gave all the players a holiday. Ji Feng didn't go anywhere. He stayed at home and waited for news from ESPN.

Without him, while the playoffs are starting, various awards for this season's regular season are also in full swing. In the past few days, several awards have already revealed their true colors.

On the 2nd, the official announced the first award of this season, the Sportsmanship Award.

Not many people know about this award, and it is relatively useless. It mainly covers moral behavior on the field, fair play and integrity. Simply put, it is the Mr. Nice Award.

In the end, Kidd beat Battier, and Curry and others won the award.

Then on May 3, the first major award was announced. Popovich of the Spurs won the NBA "Coach of the Year" award for the 2011-12 season.

The NBA stated that the reason why Popovich was awarded the "Coach of the Year" award was mainly because Popovich led the Spurs, whose team has an older structure, to the first place in the regular season in the highly competitive Western Conference. Two results.

It is well deserved. This is the second time that Bobo has won this award after 2003. Although many people are still complaining about Zen Master. After all, it is hard to ignore that he has ranked first in the regular season for 5 consecutive seasons. But Bobo’s The strength is also obvious to all.

In the 2011-12 season, a shortened season with a tight schedule, he led the Spurs to an excellent record of 50 wins and 16 losses, helping the Spurs enter the playoffs for the 15th consecutive season, the 15th consecutive season created by the Spurs. The achievement of entering the playoffs is also the longest record in NBA history so far.

On May 5, Orlando Magic power forward Ryan Anderson won the Most Improved Player Award. Anderson averaged 16.1 points and 7.7 rebounds per game this season, an improvement from last season's averages of 10.7 points and 5.6 rebounds. Obviously, Anderson beat Bynum in the selection and finally won the championship.

Bynum was still a little disappointed at the time. After all, this award was the only award Bynum could compete for.

However, it is indeed almost meaningless for Anderson to win this award. Compared with Kevin Love last season, Anderson completely took advantage of the Magic's unavailable perimeter. His shooting percentage did not increase at all. The increase in data came from a few shots. There were 9 more times on average, and the increase was less than 6 points. This efficiency is very impressive.

On the other hand, Bynum's average points and rebounds per game have increased, and the number of shots has only increased by less than two times. His efficiency value has completely exceeded his opponents, and his free throw percentage has also increased by 4 percentage points. This is really not the case for a big center. It's easy. If you don't believe it, just look at the iron brothers, Warcraft and DeAndre Jordan.

This award is also the second time a Lakers player has failed in the competition.

It seems that the league does not want to let the Lakers win all the major awards like last season happen again.

Then there is the Best Sixth Man Award. Although Artest is still outstanding this season, the reduced efficiency is a fact. There is no controversy about the Thunder's James Harden winning this award. Harden played a total of 62 games in the regular season. He served as a substitute in 60 games, and he ranked first among all substitute players with an average of 16.8 points per game.

In addition, Harden averaged 49.1% field goal percentage, 39% three-point field goal percentage, and 84.6% free throw percentage.

He also became the first player in the history of the Thunder to win an award. Let us applaud the bearded brother!
