"As long as we are on the court, he is the most dominant giant. Among the players of his generation, there is no doubt that he is the strongest one!
Even if you compare him with those great players in history, he is an extremely special one!
In the entire history of the NBA, he is the only one, and he even created a new benchmark for NBA centers...
There is no doubt that he is the MVP!!!"
When Curry led the Warriors to a fierce battle with the Spurs in San Antonio, in Portland, at the MVP ceremony held by the Trail Blazers for Wang Zelin, Portland Trail Blazers head coach Terry Stotts was speaking on the stage.
At this time, the face of the NBA's most popular coach was full of smiles.
This is the third time in his head coaching career that he has experienced something like this. What’s even more interesting is that all three times were because of Wang Zelin.
Wang Zelin was sitting below at this time. Facing the praise of a special coach, although he was excited, he still maintained a calm smile.
He went on stage to win the regular season MVP trophy. When he received the trophy, even though it was his third time winning the trophy, he still kissed him without hesitation.
There was a flash of light underneath, but Wang Zelin just waved his hand at them, "Hey, hey, hey, guys, calm down and save more memory. Next, you have to help me take photos of the Western Conference Championship Trophy and the Championship Trophy!"
"
Yes, Wang Zelin has been so confident from beginning to end.
I am confident that I can win the regular season MVP, I am confident that the team can break out of the Western Conference, and I am confident that they can achieve three consecutive championships this year!
Looking at the trophy in his hand, Wang Zelin continued: "It is undoubtedly a very happy thing to win this trophy again, but I know that my journey, the journey of the Trail Blazers, is still not over.
I was lucky enough to have great teammates like LaMarcus and Damien, and to be able to start my career in Portland and play for the Trail Blazers, all of which makes me grateful.
At the same time, I believe we can move towards a better tomorrow, thank you all!"
At the scene, after Wang Zelin gave his MVP acceptance speech, Aldridge, Lillard and many other teammates, as well as Dayao who flew over from China, also stood up and applauded him.
After receiving the award, Wang Zelin and his teammates set off for Los Angeles to prepare for the fourth game of the series against the Lakers tomorrow.
Of course, there is a high probability that this will be the last meeting in the series between the two sides.
…
"Three consecutive MVPs! Another legendary superstar after Larry Bird has achieved this great achievement!" - "Portland Weekly"
"With only one championship and FMVP left, Wang Zelin may become a single-season honorary Grand Slam winner for the third consecutive year!" - "Bleacher Report"
"How can you be brilliant when you are good? Stephen Curry has become the biggest loser this season!" - "Foxpu Sports"
There is no doubt that Wang Zelin has won the regular season MVP for three consecutive years, which has once again become a hot topic in the basketball world.
You know, there are not many players in NBA history who can win the regular season MVP award for two consecutive years. And those few who are, without exception, are all historical superstars!
Russell, Chamberlain, Kareem Bird, Magic, Jordan in the last century, Duncan, Nash and James since the new season...
It is hard to imagine that if one of these people is missing from the development history of the league, countless wonderful things will be lost.
And going one step further on this basis, there was only one person who could win three consecutive MVP awards - Larry Bird!
From the 1985-86 season to this year's 15-16 season, after a lapse of 30 years, a young man came out of the blue and replicated Bird's miracle.
His name is - Wang Zelin!
…
…
On May 10th, Wang Zelin got up early to prepare for the evening game.
Today the NBA officially announced the remaining major awards for the regular season.
The first is the All-Defensive Team of the Season. Those selected for the second team are: Patrick Beverley of the Trail Blazers, Tony Allen of the Grizzlies, Paul George of the Pacers, and Paul Mirza of the Hawks.
Pullman and Heat's Hassan Whiteside.
Jimmy Butler, who was traded to the Pelicans for Anthony Davis as an important bargaining chip by the Bulls, failed to win a playoff spot in the Wild West during the regular season and ultimately lost to the All-Defensive Team selection.
Unfortunately, I was not selected as in the original timeline.
The first team of the All-Defensive Team is led by Wang Zelin, who was named the defensive player of the season. He was selected as the first defensive center. The other four players are Chris Paul of the Lakers and Avery Bullard of the Celtics.
Leigh, the Spurs' Kawhi Leonard and the Warriors' Draymond Green.
This is Wang Zelin’s first-team All-Pro selection for three consecutive seasons!
In addition, in the selection of the best team of the season, Wang Zelin was also selected as a first-team center for the third consecutive season!
Wang Zelin narrowly lost to Duncan, who was at the tail end of his prime, in the selection of the All-NBA Team in his rookie season. After being stopped as a second-team center, he has never fallen out of the first team again in his career so far.
This season's first team is Damian Lillard, Stephen Curry, Kawhi Leonard, LeBron James and Wang Zelin.
In the selection of first-team positions, with the blessing of his unbeatable regular season record and season assists leader, Lillard defeated Russell Westbrook, who averaged 23.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, 10.4 assists, 2 steals and 0.3 blocks per game in the regular season.
, was crowned first-team point guard of the season for the first time.
The second team members are Chris Paul, Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant, LaMarcus Aldridge and DeMarcus Cousins.
The members of the third team are Kyle Lowry, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Draymond Green and Andre Drummond.
Generally speaking, there is basically nothing wrong with the players shortlisted for the second and third teams.
The Trail Blazers, who had 75 wins in the regular season, and the Warriors, who had 73 wins in the regular season, became the final winners. Each other's three core players were selected to the best team of the season.
The most devastated people are undoubtedly the fans of Irving and Harden.
Among the Cavaliers' Big Three, only Irving was not selected for the All-NBA Team, which made Irving a bit embarrassed as he holds the title of second-in-command of the Cavaliers.
As for Harden, his personal statistics are still crazy, averaging close to 30 points per game, but he couldn't stand it because he was so wild at the beginning of the season that he suffered from external criticism.
In the playoffs, they were directly swept by the Trail Blazers 4-0...
Let's put it this way, if you want to name the most disappointing star this season, Harden is definitely the one who got the most votes!
At the same time, somewhere in Hawaii, in a sea view villa.
"Snapped!"
A certain player No. 35, who did not want to be named, saw that he had once again missed the best team. He couldn't help but slammed the fruit phone in his hand on the ground, smashing it into pieces.
Obviously, he was not satisfied with the result.
At the same time, it also strengthened the idea of seeking a strong team to join next season.
Just when he was about to contact his agent, he saw his mobile phone smashed into eight pieces on the ground... There was an air of embarrassment everywhere.
…
…
On the evening of the 10th, Wang Zelin and his teammates came to the Staples Center again.
Wang Zelin is full of confidence and expectations for the next game.
In any case, the 15-16 regular season was a fruitful season for Wang Zelin. At the same time, it was also a fruitful season for the Trail Blazers.
This is his fourth regular season record. After the second team and second defense in his rookie year, he has been on the first team and one defense for three consecutive seasons, plus he won the best defensive player.
Such a terrifying ability to harvest honor is unique throughout history.
If we can win the final championship this season and successfully establish the second dynasty in the new century, this season will be a perfect season for Wang Zelin and the Trail Blazers!
Of course, it is not that easy to win the championship.
Because there are so many people who want the championship this season!
Likewise, there are too many people trying to pursue perfection this season.
"Wang, this season we are just short of the last championship to achieve perfection!"
Perfect!
This is such a coveted term.
Lillard, who was selected to the All-NBA Team for the first time today, lived up to his usual stern appearance and smiled like a 190-pound child.
Wang Zelin could see that Lillard was really happy and full of hope for the team's bright future.
In response, Wang Zelin didn't say anything, he just hit Lillard and Lillard hard on the chest, got up and got off the bus.
Let this series come to an end tonight.
…
Soon, at 8 o'clock in the evening, the fans' attention collectively shifted to the Staples Center, because the G4 game between the Trail Blazers and the Lakers was about to begin.
After the last game was mixed with referee penalties and fans had online wars after the game, the much-anticipated fourth game is finally about to begin.
On game day, the Staples Center was packed to capacity.
The faces of the Trail Blazers players were filled with confidence.
With a big lead of 3-0, the Trail Blazers, who had a slight deficit, entered the Western Conference Finals with half a foot. The difference was that the promotion time was earlier and later.
It would be best if we could advance early.
Whether the Trail Blazers can become the first team in the East and West to advance to the conference finals depends on tonight!
The faces of the Lakers players were full of horror.
After all, they were already three games behind. According to past practice, it was equivalent to announcing their time in advance.
But everything depends on man-made efforts. Under the leadership of Kobe Bryant, a leader with great mental attributes, the Lakers did not show too much frustration, but rather felt a bit like "burning the boat".
As the saying goes, victory is inevitable. Whether the Lakers can refuse to sweep and create history depends on tonight!
In this focus battle, the four giants of the TNT team also appeared in the courtside commentary box.
"Who will win tonight's game?"
Buck rate raised the issue first.
"Portland Trail Blazers!"
O'Neill quickly replied.
"Why?"
"Shaq, are you so dismissive of your old partner Kobe?"
Reggie Miller and Kenny Smith looked at O'Neal together.
O'Neill smiled and shook his head.
Just kidding, do you need a reason?
Believe me, Wang Zelin is right to take sides without thinking!
O'Neal didn't say anything, but Barkley couldn't help laughing after a while.
This guy, on the surface, seems to be on good terms with Kobe, but in fact, the relationship between the two is not settled at all.
"Kenny, what do you think?"
He then looked at Smith
"Lakers!"
Sure enough, what Smith thought was different from O'Neal.
"This is the home court of the Lakers. They have lost three games in a row. They seemed to have found a way to deal with Wang Zelin in the last game. They did a good job in drawing fouls, which allowed them to lose by only one point in the end!"
Smith's analysis seems to be very accurate, and there is some truth to it, but they are just cloud fans who like to watch game highlights and statistical tables after the game. Only those who have actually watched the game will know what happened in the third game.
What.
However, the home whistle is an unspoken rule that cannot be brought to the surface. Therefore, although O'Neal and Miller showed disdain, they did not expose Smith.
"So what kind of game do you think this will be?"
Barkley then asked the second question. He is positioned as a hot spot today and will not do any fancy things.
"Although the Trail Blazers have an advantage in record and have a high probability of advancing, the game will be very exciting. The Lakers will not give in easily. This game is very likely to be like the last one, and the outcome will not be known until the last moment!
"
Miller gave his opinion.
It's just that he hasn't said anything yet, that is, what will be the scale of tonight's whistleblowing? Will it be higher than the last game, or will it be restrained?
"No, the last game was so difficult, the Trail Blazers passed the ball, and tonight Wang Jiang led them to a big victory!"
O'Neal continued his nonsense.
"Hey guy……"
This answer made Barkley couldn't help but complain. O'Neal tonight was simply louder than him.
When the Trail Blazers play away from home, the chance of making a loud noise is almost non-existent. The referees at the Lakers' home court are not vegetarians.
Just as the commentator was talking eloquently, the scene entered the opening session, and people from both sides appeared one after another.
After three games, we knew each other well and there was no adjustment at all.
The Trail Blazers here sent Lillard, Barton, and Batum on the outside, and Aldrie partnered with Wang Zelin on the inside.
On the Lakers' side, the backcourt includes Paul and Kobe, forwards Derrick Williams and Pau Gasol, and center Ryan Kelly.
Kobe is always the last one to appear, and the cheers from the fans are overwhelming.
However, Black Mamba's face is still solemn. If he doesn't win tonight, I'm afraid he will keep this expression forever.
Jump ball in the center circle.
Wang Zelin easily beat Ryan Kelly and gave the Trail Blazers the opportunity to take the lead in attacking.
From the moment Lillard caught the ball, boos broke out everywhere, and Lakers fans tried their best to put pressure on the Trail Blazers.
However, in the eyes of Lillard and Wang Zelin, such a move is a very weak signal sent by the Lakers to them.
It's just a saying that the mourning soldiers will win.
Facts have proved that there is no luck in this alliance, only strength!
In the pursuit of perfection, Wang Zelin and his teammates are confident that they will clear all stumbling blocks on the way.
