This is Chi Liang's first playoff game, with a total of 34 minutes of playing and a score of 16 points, 7 assists and 6 rebounds.

Such data is already very good. There is no way. Compared with the regular season, the playoffs are more intense. When Chi Liang adapts, he may be able to obtain better data.

Speechlessly, he is also the best player in the Nuggets. Whether it is McDace or Van Exel, their performance is not as good as usual.

As for the Jazz, a total of six players scored in double digits, with the best performing Malone and Hornersek. The former scored 2010 and the latter scored 35 points efficiently. They are also the biggest victims of the Nuggets.

Because he lost the game, Chi Liang wanted to keep a low profile at the post-match press conference, but he was helpless to find that he couldn't keep a low profile.

It was learned from reporters that in the Best Sixth Man selection, he overwhelmed the Magic's Darrell Armstrong.

In this season, Armstrong averaged 30 minutes per game and scored 13.8 points, 6.7 rebounds and 3.6 rebounds.

Such data is quite excellent, but compared with Chi Liang, it is much worse. Because Chi Liang's data is almost twice as much as his.

Chi Liang can be said to be sure to win this award, because in terms of data, his opponents are far from him. Even if the reporters participating in the selection are dissatisfied with him, they cannot ignore his huge advantages in data.

If neither the assist king nor the steal king can win the Best Sixth Man award, then who else can win?

Of course, the winners will not be announced tomorrow morning.

On the second day, the first playoff game of each team was announced, and there was no surprise in the West. All the strong teams won. The most unfortunate thing was the Rockets, who lost the game with a score difference of 100:101.

Compared with the Western Conference team, there are two upsets in the East. One is that the 76ers defeated the Magic. You should know that the Magic is third in the Eastern Conference and its record is comparable to the top two.

But compared with another game, this is nothing. At the Heat's home court, the Knicks defeated the Heat, the No. 1 in the Eastern Conference with a 20-point advantage.

It was also on this day that the league officially announced the Best Sixth Person Award. As the reporter said, Chi Liang won the award with an absolute advantage.

Among the official data, Chi Liang played a total of 21 substitutes, meeting the criteria of the best sixth man, ranking tenth in the league in scoring, first in assists, second in rebounds, first in steals, first in blocks, nigh 19th in shooting percentage, 53% from the field and 47.6% from three-point shooting percentage.

In addition, he is also the player who has won the most triple-double season in a shortened season.

Such high average data gives people the feeling of killing a chicken. Even if a reporter is upset about him, he still won the Best Sixth Person Award with an overwhelming advantage.

At the same time, he became the first player to average more than 20 points per game since the establishment of this award.

After winning the award, the league sent an executive to bring the trophy over. It was a player statue trophy, which was somewhat similar to the MVP trophy, except that the former made a shooting move and the latter dribbling move.

The most important thing is that the value of the two is extremely different and cannot be generalized at all.

Since the second game was held at the Energy Program Stadium, a simple award ceremony could only be held in the hotel, and some journalists were invited.

The award presentation process is very simple. After awarding the trophy to Chi Liang, the league executive said a few words, which was nothing more than affirmation of Chi Liang.

"Mr. Chi Liang, we will see you again in a few days!"

Before leaving, the executive said to Chi Liang.

Chi Liang nodded, he knew he was talking about the Best Rookie Awards. As for the best team and best defensive team that could be won, they had no trophys, but were obviously better than the Best Rookie in honor.

Under the dazzling spotlight, Chi Liang raised the trophy with a smile for media reporters to take pictures.

When asked about the award speech, Chi Liangba Labala said a lot, just to thank the team, coach and teammates for their support, the league and the media for their support. In short, he said a lot of thanks and then ended his award speech.

After winning the award, many familiar players called to congratulate them. Among these players are giants such as O'Neal, Olajuwon, Barkley, and teammates such as Rafrenz and McDyce.

Although this award is insignificant, it has a certain amount of value in the end, which greatly increases Chi Liang's confidence and begins to prepare for the next game.

The playoff schedule is tight and there is only one day off before the next game.

D'Antoni was naturally quite satisfied with Chi Liang. Whether it was scoring or organizing, Chi Liang did a very good job, which was also what D'Antoni was most satisfied with.

In order to deal with the Jazz's pick-and-roll tactics, D'Antoni was preparing to find a different approach. During the training process, he began to disrupt the lineup and simulate the opponent's tactics.

In the training game, D'Antoni began to formulate the tactics for the second game based on the performance of the players.

On May 10, the second game between the Nuggets and Jazz continued to be held in the Energy Program Arena.

After the starter list was announced, everyone was surprised, and Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan frowned.

The reason is nothing, the Nuggets chose to change the lineup.

Center: McDace

Power Forward: Fordson

Small Forward: Williams

Pointback: Billups

Point Guard: Chi Liang

I don’t know how D’Antoni moved Van Exel. In short, compared to the last game, Van Exel did not enter the starting lineup, Chi Liang acted as the point guard and played against Stockton.

As for the Jazz, the same lineup is still the same.

During the jumping ball session, this time, Mike Dais barely grabbed the basketball with his advantage of jumping and gave the racket to Chi Liang.

Ignoring Stockton's small moves, Chi Liang chose to break through with the ball. There were no extra moves and simply relying on the gap in confrontation to easily complete the breakthrough.

After attracting Malone's attention, Chi Liang passed the ball to the unguarded Fordson, who scored a layup.

Stockton felt very weak about this goal. At this time, he was old and weak, and was about to retire. His strength and speed were not as good as Chi Liang. He mainly played with his sense of experience.

The Jazz's offense is naturally a monotonous pick-and-roll tactic.

Stockton broke through with the ball, Chi Liang hurriedly blocked it, but Malone blocked the direction. He did not choose to chase and defend. When Malone began to move, he followed closely.

In terms of physical fitness, the two have their own advantages, especially the height difference between the two sides is very small.

According to D'Antoni's intention, Fordson immediately changed defense and rushed towards Stockton.
