This Forward is Not Serious

Vol 2 Chapter 137: The best rookie is...

His words really worked.

After the press conference was over, Carl approached O'Connor to discuss how to play the next game.

Iverson also gathered the players together for the first time after returning to the locker room and used his most glorious year to inspire his teammates.

Lin Ying listened, but was also thinking.

If morale picks up, even in away games, the Nuggets will have at least a 50% chance of winning.

The Spurs have played the third game after Duncan's comeback.

If you are energetic, it has basically consumed almost the same amount.

Moreover, Duncan's own consumption is irreversible. Even if he adjusts again, his physical condition is at its worst when he hits G7.

Of course, the Spurs are playing at home after all, and with their strong defensive skills in G6, it is not easy for the Nuggets to win.

He said at the press conference that Shuanggun would not play that kind of game again, saying that he said it, but it was not for him.

It is easy to change from frugality to luxury, and it is difficult to change from luxury to frugality. Similarly, it is easy to play a good game and then a bad one, but it is difficult to bottom out.

So they must be prepared that the double gun feel is still not good, and...

He looked up at the teammates who had been encouraged by Iverson's morale, and found a suitable time to speak:

"I have a proposal. We will practice every day before the next game."

As soon as he said this, everyone in the locker room looked at him in surprise.

The Nuggets never practice!

Lin Ying came to the Nuggets for so long and met Iverson once and Anthony once.

"We have no retreat, we need determination."

Lin Ying continued.

Breaking the boat, talking about Xiang Yu's battle of the giant deer.

At that time, Xiang Yu killed Song Yi and crossed the Zhanghe River with the Chu army, which was not as good as the Qin army, with only three days of dry food.

Determination, in many cases, is a key factor in determining success.

Especially when weak versus strong.

So this extra training is not really to train something, but to make everyone have the determination to break the boat.

"I agree."

The first person to approve was unexpected, Iverson!

The person who doesn't like training the least agrees!

Iverson expressed his opinion, and the others nodded one after another.

Anthony finally agreed.

Although that would disrupt his original plan, he didn't want to be the next McGrady in the media.

...

The morale of the Nuggets looked pretty good in the training session on the second day.

Carl's eyes towards Lin Ying have changed from admiration to a little doting.

Old Carter had told him everything Lin Ying had done in the locker room.

The big score was 3-1 and was caught up to a 3-3 tie. The tiebreaker was still playing away. Normally, the morale of the team basically collapsed.

Many players may already be thinking about summer and next year.

After all, the NBA is a business league. To put it harder, everyone is just temporarily teaming up to play a league.

If you play well, everyone will be happy. If you don’t play well, the birds and beasts will be scattered. Just find a big tree to enjoy the cool.

It can be said that Lin Ying's QWER combo has brought back hope.

He also became more certain that Lin Ying had the opportunity to grow into a true leader.

So he has made a decision, a decision that has fueled the flames.

When the training was over, Karl called the players together and announced a decision.

"I am going to appoint another team leader, Lin Ying."

There is not only one captain of a team.

For example, the captain of the Lakers is Kobe and Gasol.

The Nuggets had only one captain before, Anthony.

After the decision was made, no one discussed it, only applause.

Although only a rookie, since the player meeting, the players have felt Lin Ying's positive promotion to the team.

So Carl's appointment can be said to be completely natural.

Lin Ying was a little surprised, because he had never thought about this before.

Everything he did was an effort to re-set his championship goal after talking with Yang Shuyu that time.

But he did not refuse this time.

This time is different from the previous time in Ncaa.

That time he was a newcomer, and a Samsung high school student, even if he put aside the character issue, he agreed that most people would be dissatisfied.

But now and the Nuggets have been running in for a season, they are familiar with each other and have a certain chemical reaction.

And the situation of the Nuggets is indeed more complicated. If there is a captain holding it, many times the words will have more weight.

"... In two days, winning or going home is all in your hands."

After saying a few words of encouragement, Old Karl finally spoke.

The series reached the tiebreak and the two teams are already very familiar with each other. At this time, any tactics or strategies can play a limited role.

It is to fight willpower and play on the spot.

...

The Nuggets are going to have a tie-break with the Spurs, but they are not alone, because there is a group of games on the Eastern side that will also usher in a tie-break, and it is the kind you never expect.

The first in the East, the Celtics with 66 wins, will usher in the tiebreaker with the 37-win Eagles.

So the Nuggets are really not the team with the most pressure. If the Celtics lose the tiebreaker, that would be a real big joke.

Moreover, the eastern side will play first.

This is very interesting.

Before the two tiebreaks started, the league announced the fourth batch of awards of the season.

This time there is only one award, but it is very interesting.

Best rookie!

The best rookie of the season was the least suspenseful of all the awards.

Durant entered the second half of the season, and his shooting percentage improved significantly. By the end of the season, his shooting percentage had increased from 40% to 43%. The only thing that was bad was his three-pointer, which was still less than 30%. .

But in terms of overall statistics, he is still the most prominent among all rookies, leaving behind most rookies.

Averaged 20.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks per game, 43%/87.3%/28.8%.

Compare that to Horford, the biggest competitor in the East, who averaged 10.1 points, 9.7 rebounds and 1 block per game, which is obviously much stronger.

And he won the Rookie of the Month in January, March, and April, and tied for the most rookies.

But Durant's biggest threat does not come from Horford, even though the latter has tied for the most rookies among the three rookies of the month.

His biggest threat is Lin Ying from the same district.

Lin Ying won the best of the month in November and December. Although he was not able to win this award afterwards, his performance after entering February was also very stable.

Throughout the rookie season, Lin Yingying averaged 12.6 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.6 steals and 1 block, and his three field goal percentage was 49.6%/82.6%/39.8%.

The three hit rates add up to 172%, which is very close to the legendary "180 Club".

Moreover, his scoring is second only to Durant, and his assists rank first among rookies (more than 30 games played).

Such performance poses a great threat to Durant.

So before the announcement of this award, fans were also discussing it on social media.

And because of the previous rookie game sharing MVP experience, many fans also speculated that the media will also share in the final selection.

You must know that this has also happened in history, and it has happened 3 times.

The first time was in O'Brien's time, Cowens and Petrie, in 1971.

The next two times, one was Francis and Brand in 2000, and the other was Grant Hill and Jason Kidd in 1995, the fans most talked about.

And speaking of it, the situation this year is very similar to that year.

Hill averaged 19.9 points, 6.4 rebounds and 5.0 assists, and Kidd averaged 11.7 points, 5.4 rebounds and 7.7 assists.

You can also see a pattern of Stern's operation.

It can be said that since that time, although the league is vying for the successor to Jordan, Kidd has also received very good resources.

Even every clash between them was a topic that fans talked about after dinner.

This time Lin Ying and Durant are more topical, so fans have every reason to believe that there will be shared things this year.

In the expectations of the fans, the league soon announced the final result.

As the fans expected, Lin Ying and Durant shared the 2007 Rookie of the Year!

Stern: I'm sure about this wave of Gemini CP!

This result came out, the fans are also happy.

Especially for domestic fans, Lin Ying did what Yao Ming didn't do back then!

Of course, some people will wonder why Stern didn't share it with Yao Ming.

Because the two of them didn't have much to fry back then!

Moreover, you have to follow the fan's preferences for hype. Forcing the hype will make the fans feel uncomfortable.

After determining the best rookie, the league also called Lin Ying and Durant the first time, asking them how to receive the award.

As a result, the answers of the two were the same, which fully proved the degree of their mutual understanding.

"I listen to him!"

So in the end, the staff made two historic calls.

Then in the end, the two decided to hold the award ceremony before the next game.

Lin Ying is preparing to carry out the award ceremony before the game, just like Ginobili, which can boost morale to a certain extent.

After all, in away games, morale can be improved a little.

Durant's consideration is that he must be there to support this critical tiebreaker!

...

A day later, the Nuggets flew to San Antonio to prepare for the final tiebreaker in the first round.

Yang Shuyu also went to Denver with Lin Ying.

This time it was Lin Ying's request.

This kind of life-and-death match will be very fierce, he will do his best in the match, and he will definitely need to relax after the match.

Although Yang Shuyu hasn't graduated yet, he has nothing to do near graduation, and he can just go to the court to watch, naturally he will not refuse.

On the same day, the tiebreaker in the east ended ahead of schedule.

The Celtics beat the Eagles 99 to 65.

The Hawks scored less than 20 points in each of the first three quarters, and they were 36 points behind at the end of the three quarters.

The suffocating defense of the Celtics suffocated anyone watching.

This also makes the Nuggets players better prepared for the fierce battle, after all, the Spurs also started off defense.

And their defense is more "aggressive" than the Pistons.

...

The next night, the tiebreaker between the Spurs and the Nuggets officially kicked off at the AT&T Arena.

The arena is still full of attendance, and the enthusiasm of the fans is even higher than that of the G5 game.

There were also many "sarcasm" signs on the sidelines, such as "Mello is the next Tracy", "You have a whole summer to think about the next round" and so on.

And when he warmed up before the game, he kept shooting Anthony on the spot, and even pulled out the statistics of McGrady's reversal that year.

Shrimp pork heart, but so.

Stern did not come to the scene for this game, but his special assistant Xiao Hua was in the audience.

Xiao Hua's expression looked a little rosy, and Stern arranged for him in such a crucial game, which shows that he is now in an advantage in the heirs contention.

The commentator, Barkley and Smith, and special guest Jordan are talking.

Before the start of this series, they had a wave of predictions. Except for Barkley's prediction, there was a chance, everyone else guessed wrong.

But it was precisely because of the wrong guess that Barkley looked like the ultimate poisonous milk.

And Jordan is also quite "cheeky".

"I guessed the score wrong, because Tim was injured and no one could guess, but I would guess the result correctly. This is Michael's ultimate prediction."

After that, he talked about Anthony again.

"He's very much like me in high school. He hasn't learned how to balance the game. That's the most important part of being a winner."

Jordan's words are very Jordanian.

Because he has been grateful to college coach Dean Smith throughout his life, thinking that it was the latter who suppressed his desire to score that made him succeed.

Of course, it's impossible not to pretend to be forced. This wave of high school metaphors is very awkward.

"Denver also has AI and Lin."

Barkley reminded.

"I like AI, but he can't do much now, who else is Lin?"

Jordan's words directly amused Barkley.

Jordan originally wanted to bear it, but he couldn't bear it and finally laughed.

Broad-minded Mike Joe.

"I don't think a rookie can bring decisive help to a team, except for'Magic.'"

Everyone knows that "Magic" John New is the first Joe to play, but in fact, Jordan has a unique evaluation of John New.

But this is not a blow, because Johnson is the only player in NBA history to get FMVP in his rookie season.

They were chatting, and the venue was set up.

Before the admission ceremony, there will be an awards ceremony for this year's best rookie.

Lin Ying and Durant stood on the sidelines together, and Stern briefly exchanged something with them.

After Stern announced the attribution of the best rookie, Durant gave a speech as a representative.

It's different in normal times~www.wuxiahere.com~ Durant is actually very charming when speaking.

And his speech is very organized.

You should know that the templates for MOP Lin Ying's speech were all given by Durant.

And at the end of the speech, he announced one thing.

"This trophy will be given to the Hornets, the president of the University of Texas at Austin, because they created a pair of best rookies!"

When this was over, even the Spurs fans at the scene couldn't help but cheer for him.

With this final decision, it instantly lifted the share of heat this year.

It can even be predicted that in the future when people discuss sharing, they will also be talked about by fans.

The award ceremony is over, followed by the admission ceremony.

Lin Ying took a deep breath before entering the field.

All the necessary preparations have been made, and the next step is the battle!
