The last Weekly Award of the season was announced, and it actually went to Westbrook. Westbrook's performance last week was indeed eye-catching, and he also had a winning goal, which was quite good. This season is really Westbrook's peak season.
No matter how you criticize him, he is one of the kings this season. He is a super scorer and averages a triple-double per game, which is really scary. In addition, it is impossible to give it to Tang Qian all the time, so between them, the two of them will share it equally.
He won the Western Conference Player of the Week honor for most of this season. The rest of them just survived in the cracks and were able to steal a few times, so they should be thankful.
The Eastern Conference Best of the Week went to George. George scored 32+9+3+2 last week, shooting 57.4% from the field, 44% from the three-point range, and 82.4% from the free throw line. He won the award with super high efficiency.
Won the Eastern Conference Player of the Week. At this point, all the Player of the Week honors this season have been awarded. As for the last Player of the Month in April, many people are saying, in fact... it’s just to see who can have the last laugh in the Western Conference.
The person who can have the last laugh should be the winner of this year's season MVP. Because this year, it is the competition between Westbrook and Tang Qian. The two men were equally divided in the best of the month before. Now, just look at this
The last time, who can win the championship strongly? It is a bit similar to the final battle between Kobe and Paul. They faced off head-to-head. Whoever wins will be the regular season MVP. As a result, Kobe won the game with statistics and victory, and then there was no suspense.
As for what later generations said, Paul was wronged and Kobe stole an MVP. That is nonsense. In the final confrontation, Kobe led the team to win, and his personal data surpassed Paul. Why not give it to him and give it to Paul? Besides,
Look at the vote count. This year’s MVP voting rate is not close! Let me say it again, it’s not close, okay? So, it’s all nonsense to say that.
There are many seasons where the MVP votes are even closer than this year. Kobe beat Paul without any suspense.
And now, the same is true. The media has promoted the data-only theory for a season. It is impossible to withdraw it to slap in the face when the season is about to end. Therefore, whoever can win the final data will be most likely to win this year's regular season MVP. Since
In this way, there are a large number of supporters on both sides, so this last month will be the epitome of the ending.
If it belongs to Westbrook, then there is a high probability that it is Westbrook.
If it belongs to Tang Qian, then it most likely belongs to Tang Qian.
Let's see who can have the last laugh.
After beating the Timberwolves, the Lakers still have 2 games this season. Looking at the data at this time, Tang Qian should have about 80+ blocks. This is basically an impossible task. Tang Qian is not
He has no confidence in himself now. His current state is basically invincible. The superposition of various strengths makes people look frightened. If there are really so many challenges under the basket, he will also have a chance to give it a try. But... if there is anything left
Which one does both opponents learn from the Timberwolves?
That's hard to say. Because the Timberwolves lost the last game, there was no problem, but they just didn't go inside to provide a shot to No. 29. If you do this, even if Tang Qian is really a land superman, he won't be able to cover the sky with one hand.
After all, he is still an inside post and cannot run out to defend. Even if he goes out, it is better to stay under the basket and protect the basket.
Therefore, Tang Qian is now in a dilemma.
Outsiders, ESPN and Sports Illustrated, had anticipated this situation, so they began to advocate "data theory". In fact, the data theory was just to build momentum for Westbrook. They believed that although Tang Qian's data was "pretty good", he still wasn't as good as he was.
Russell Westbrook, who is now averaging a triple-double per game. Well, okay, average a triple-double per game, a triple-double per game is awesome, nothing is as good as averaging a triple-double per game, okay.
So...I'm going to post it too! Let you shut up!!!
ESPN was actually very nervous, but after seeing that No. 29 had only single-digit blocks in the last game, he immediately relaxed because at this time he felt that he was no longer good. He was still short of 80 in 2 games.
+Block. Do you think you are a god? Do you really think you are a superman??? Do you really think you are a Saiyan???
So, okay, even though the damn Lakers number 29 is also very explosive, and has data close to a triple-double per game, but it’s just a little bit close, it’s better to do it, right? This time, I can finally be ruthless
The ruthless "Yin" No. 29, who made him so arrogant and look down on our authoritative media?
This is retribution!
Just like that damn No. 24, without us media, he would not have won a few regular season MVP trophies.
Just when these people were having fun with each other and lusting after each other, the Lakers on the 29th suddenly got some inspiration from an interesting story about the national team’s betting. What was it specifically? It’s very simple. In the Olympic Games that year, the American team did
There is a bet, whoever can complete a dunk on Yao Ming's head will receive a crowdfunding reward of one million US dollars. This is a true story, which was revealed by Kevin Garnett in an exclusive interview with Yahoo Sports after his retirement. And
In addition to this, there are a lot of betting on the basketball court. Just give a few examples. It is still the National Men's Basketball Team, but this time the target has become Sun Dasheng. At that time, Sun Dasheng was not singing every day and having sex with his model wife every day.
, is still a rising star. The U.S. national team has also heard of his name, so they opened a bet again, saying that whoever can put one on Sun Dasheng's head will get a reward of 500,000 US dollars. The result
This award was taken away by Kobe.
Another example is that Kobe once argued with Wallace during a free throw and bet 500,000, but Kobe easily made the free throw.
In addition, Bird and "Magic" set up a game in the past. Whoever can deduct "Big Bamboo Rod" Bol and "Mammoth" Eaton can take away the money accumulated in the prize pool. As a result, after a season, they all
No one can do it head-on. Therefore, this kind of dollar-dollar gambling is very popular on NBA courts, and it doesn't happen just once or twice.
So these things gave Tang Qian some inspiration. He knew that the current situation was already very critical. If he didn't make a big news, if he didn't take the risk, he would probably have to run away again this season.
. This was absolutely intolerable to him, so on the night of April 10, Tang Qian suddenly posted a message on his personal Twitter:
Everyone, listen up. I have a lot of money, and now I want to spread it. In the last two games, you are all the lucky ones. If anyone can dunk on my head, I will reward you with 1 million US dollars at a time!
Never break your promise!
As soon as this statement came out... it went viral. It was immediately retweeted like crazy, and then instantly pushed to the popular homepage of Twitter. Tang Qian was also good at "hyping up". Such a topical thing came out all of a sudden. But
None of them knew that this was not Tang Qian's personal hype at all, nor had he even discussed it with his "Tang Team". It was just a personal act.
I just simply want to do this.
At this time, someone deliberately picked a fight, and that was "Kanye" Kanye West and Justin Bieber, two big stars in the American entertainment industry who have always had grievances with Tang Qian and said: Tyrant~ Didn't you sign a
Is it a super lifetime contract? Is it so stingy? A dunk ball is only one million, is it a little less? Do you dare to give it more?
Oh, these guys, don’t worry about them, they’re still in high spirits, right? But what you said makes sense, one million is indeed a bit too little, and it’s not “tempting” enough. Then give me more, just five million
How about it?
Tang Qian responded directly on Twitter, and it suddenly became even more popular. What is the concept of five million? For ordinary NBA players, this is a super rich income, okay? And all this money is after tax!
It is equivalent to a big contract worth tens of millions. Even now in the era of contract explosion, but... for role players, you don't mean that you can get it if you want to get a contract worth tens of millions. That's just for role players.
It's okay for famous players, but it's still impossible for ordinary players to achieve it.
So this time, the weight became heavier, and it even directly ignited the passion of the public. All of a sudden, this thing directly attracted countless celebrities and celebrities to "invest and help". For example, Barkley named 500,000 people to join. It depends on the success of this event.
Then a large number of people joined, including Bill Russell, the "Lord of the Rings" who has always been a super star, also joined in, invested a lot of money, and wanted to watch this good show. He is also young.
When you get older, it’s okay to go a little crazy in the end.
Then Kobe was the most arrogant, directly investing 5 million to watch this big show, and he believed that no one could take away the bonuses in this prize pool. It was just a meaning of investing in it himself, and there would be no losses. This means
, I believe that my successor, Tyrant No. 29, protects the basket and is invincible from the front.
In the end, the game got big, and even many bosses like Kuban, who likes fun the most, joined in and invested 2 million to see if this situation was true or false. Now it became interesting. Originally, it was just Tang Qian's.
This personal behavior was spontaneously expanded by netizens, and the prize pool suddenly reached close to 50 million!!!
Damn!!! This is still 50 million after tax!!!
It’s equivalent to a super big contract worth about 100 million US dollars!!!
Let alone ordinary players, NBA stars will be tempted by this, okay!!!
Some Tang Hei at ESPN scolded Tang Qian for "no limit to the hype" while helplessly helping to promote this matter. Otherwise, if you don't pay attention to such a hot matter, then others will go to other places. Loss of reading and traffic will be
ESPN, the so-called largest sports giant in North America, does not want to see it.
In the next game, the opponent is the Pelicans. Although they are a tank team, don't forget that they added the league's second center, DeMarcus Cousins, at the end of the season. So now, the entire team's
The inside strength is very strong. From the looks of it, there is still a lot to watch in this game. Faced with the temptation of 50 million US dollars after tax! Really, few people can hold it! What the hell, what if?
, I mean what if, what if I succeed? Then I really have money that I could never earn playing basketball in my life, all of a sudden. It’s like getting a big contract worth 100 million yuan in vain.
.
Who can resist this?
No one can resist, even many NBA players are now shouting in their hearts:
I wish I wasn’t on the Pelicans!!!
50 million U.S. dollars is after tax!!! It is equivalent to a big contract worth 100 million yuan!!! If you are lucky or cruel, you can get it. In this way, you don’t have to worry about it for the rest of your life, okay!!! Now even if
Even the role players feel it, and their hearts are boiling. Look at this pre-game interview, from Oleksi Ajinza to Axel Don Payne, these very popular Pelicans temporary players,
They all also said that they would participate in this challenge.
And players of this level, would they have dared to do this before, dare to challenge the basket guarded by Lakers No. 29?
It's very difficult, so what if the ancestors in China said it well? Since ancient times, wealth and silk have moved people's hearts, and there must be brave men under heavy rewards. This is really, not wrong at all. It is a very insightful summary. On the other side of the ocean, now
It's exactly the same. Under the stimulation of huge bonuses, it can be said that the entire NBA league is in a state of excitement. Many players even tweeted directly:
Now I am very envious, jealous and hate the Pelicans players.
It can be seen from this that how serious this incident was.
In fact, Tang Qian did not expect that he would play so big at the beginning, but since he "borrowed a bit of east wind", he would not be vague and said directly before the game: Do you want to get rich too?
Do you want to earn a big contract of 100 million yuan all at once? Now, your opportunity is here! No matter who you are, now you have the opportunity to challenge this grand prize! So, be brave enough to challenge, I will challenge you tonight at 7
At half past three, we'll be waiting for you at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
Damn it, this slogan is really one after another, one after another. Tang Qian's attitude also aroused the desire to fight in the entire Pelicans team. After all, this season is already a season for the Pelicans.
It's almost over. They only won 30 games in their early 30s. This win wouldn't even qualify for the playoffs in the Eastern Conference, let alone the Western Conference. So the last few games of this season are purely training for them.
Prepare for next season.
In this case, with this kind of super bonus in front of them, and the team has no mission to advance to the playoffs, that's not it. Suddenly everyone feels as if they have been beaten to death. This situation can be seen from the Pelicans.
Head coach Alvin Gentry was shaking his head in silence for a while. In this situation, if he dared to stand up and interrupt it, it would probably arouse the "public outrage" of these people. And frankly speaking, in the face of
Do you think he hasn't been tempted by such a big bonus, the so-called billion-dollar contract that can be obtained in one second? If he were so decades younger, he would want to try it himself. There is no way, here is
The U.S. Empire is the place where all evil capitalism is most developed. How many people can say no to a US dollar, or a huge US dollar?
Didn't you see that Cousins and Davis are gearing up and ready to go?
So, in this game, Alvin Gentry knows that he doesn’t have to direct much, because anyway, everyone’s first goal is... dunk, dunk, dunk! Work hard for that 50 million US dollars! What kind of victory?
, no matter what honor or ethics, please get out of here for now. At this moment, we just want this "100 million yuan contract".
Who dares to stand in front of these really big gangsters who want to beat someone up?
Under such a situation, under the fierce stimulation of the American knife, the game officially began.
Another game that was not originally broadcast live in the United States was temporarily changed to live broadcast in the United States by ESPN.
There is no way, it ranks first in the ratings, but personal grievances should be put aside in the face of "major right and wrong".
When Tang Qian saw that there were many more media reporters than usual tonight, he suddenly smiled and said:
Very good, everything is ready, it just depends on me whether I am strong enough and whether I can live up to my expectations.
50 million U.S. dollars after tax. If you want it, come and get it.
Come and get it!!!
PS: In today’s playoffs, who do you think you are more optimistic about? Let’s share your opinions.
I wonder if this will be the year when Universe Yong completes three consecutive championships?
