Chapter 142: MVP’s confidence, the Suns have no ifs!

Although competitive sports are all about fairness, the NBA is not completely fair. At least this season's playoff schedule is very unfair.

Both were in the second round. The Nuggets' opponents were close to 60 wins, but the Cavaliers' opponents didn't even reach 50 wins.

They were all in the second round. The Nuggets' opponents were Nash and Stoudemire, two first-team players, Galaga Bell, a first-defense player, and Diaw, the most improved player last season.

What about the Cavaliers' opponents? There is neither a first defense nor a first team, not even a second team player.

Although this season's best team has not been announced yet, if Ryan remembers correctly, Angua's team this season seems to be a third team.

And he is the player with the strongest personal honors on the Raptors.

Except for some groups who pretend to be blind, everyone can easily tell whose opponent is more difficult to beat and who has a higher probability of advancing.

This is equivalent to facing an 18-year-old opponent and a 38-year-old opponent. Can it take the same amount of effort to conquer them?

In fact, Cleveland fans know this very well.

Therefore, they are really already imagining the scene of James bringing Cleveland the first professional sports league championship in history!

The fish pond bureau is on my side, and the high-end bureau is opposite. In the end, the team may still have full health after exiting the fish pond game, but the team that emerges from the high-end game will already have residual health.

Is it possible that we can still lose? No matter how bad A Zhan is, he still has the ability to steal a dead head, right?

The Nike team also took a fancy to this opportunity and started hyping it up.

The little emperor who was born and raised in Cleveland brought the first professional sports championship to his hometown, which has nothing to do with shit. What a touching script is this?

With this incident, not to mention surpassing Jordan, but surpassing Kobe and Ryan in one championship is not a big problem!

This is how Nike and James operated in the original history. After the Cavaliers won the championship in 2016, James and Nike were already paving the way for GOAT and began to openly and covertly promote the best in history.

But in fact, James only had three championships in his hands at that time. Even if the number of championships was only half of Jordan's, the key was not three consecutive championships.

In terms of personal honors, Ajan was probably the best player of the week to compare with Jordan at that time.

But just because the script of helping Ke Cun win the first championship in history was so good, Nike and Ajan had the confidence to challenge Jordan.

Now, Nike and Ajan are doing the same thing.

It's just that the one they're trying to get into right now is not Jordan, but they plan to get rid of Ryan first!

Although Ryan has DOPY, MVP, FVMP and championships, don't worry about winning them. As long as the plot is well written, Cleveland has the greatest gold content in winning the championship!

DPOY, MVP and FMVP are just worthless honors!

What makes Nike and Kacun fans very happy is that the Suns' desire to win is also particularly high!

Phoenix fans have always felt that if the Spurs didn't use their dirty tricks last season, the championship would definitely be the Suns.

They all agreed that after the Suns passed the Spurs, they could successfully pass the Nuggets.

Because in the regular season games against the Nuggets last season, the Suns basically didn't fall behind except for one game in which Ryan scored 60 points.

The same is true this season. The regular season record of the two sides is 2-2, and the Nuggets only won by single digits in the two games they won.

And there was another game where the Suns were clearly leading, but Kirilenko's 10-block performance in a single game made the Suns fall short in the fourth quarter, and they lost the game.

Therefore, Phoenix fans still believe that the Suns' hard power is no weaker than that of the Nuggets! The Nuggets were able to win the championship last season purely because of luck. If they had met the Suns last season, would they have won the championship? Go fishing!

This time, the Spurs couldn't stop the Suns. So Phoenix fans feel that their chance to prove themselves has come!

Here's their chance to take back their championship!

Phoenix fans and media are quite confident, even claiming that the battle will be resolved in six games.

Although the Suns are only fifth in the Western Conference, that's because there are too many monsters in the Western Conference, not because they are not strong enough.

After all, this year's Western Conference is a place where even 60 wins can only place fourth in the conference.

The Suns ranked fifth in the division with 59 wins, which is the only example in history.

You must know that if the Suns' record goes to the Eastern Conference, they can directly be the first!

Therefore, the ranking cannot explain the problem. The Suns are indeed strong this season.

Raja Bell was very tough in an interview: "Ryan may be the MVP this year, but we will beat the MVP!"

Bell's state represents the state of the entire sun.

After finally defeating the Spurs, an enemy-like opponent, the entire Suns team's morale was greatly boosted.

It seems that they want to play four games in a row to kill the Nuggets.

Ryan actually admitted that the Suns in the 2006-07 season were the pinnacle of the Suns in the bombardment era!

Although the team's offensive end still only continues the V-shaped pick-and-roll offense, the maturity of players such as Diaw, Barbosa, and Laga Bell has taken the Suns' offense to a higher level.

In addition, Lagar Bell on the outside and Kurt Thomas on the inside ensure that the Suns have a certain degree of defensive hardness.

Stoudemire has grown into the league's first-team center, Barbosa has grown into the league's best sixth man, and Bell has grown into a member of the league's first-team defensive team.

Nash still maintains MVP standards.

It can be said that this is the Sun that is closest to the championship.

This is the Suns that makes everyone believe that "they are better than other teams and they deserve to win the championship."

But this was also the last glory of the run-and-gun era.

Because after this season, the Suns owner made a sly trade to acquire the Sharks, which ended the run-and-gun era.

In short, this Suns is indeed a championship team.

Bird's hair almost fell out after watching the video. Although he has always regarded the Suns as his imaginary enemy in the playoffs and has studied the Suns for a long time.

But I still haven’t found the perfect way to hold down the sun.

Before, when Bird played against the Suns, he always advocated that the whole team speed up and use offense to attack.

However, the 50-50 record in the regular season proves that this method is both useful and useless, and is quite unstable.

Because in some games, the Suns' firepower is indeed more intense, and they may not be able to defeat them.

If you insist on brutally attacking the Suns in the playoffs, you may not be able to defeat the Suns.

Bird can't take this risk. He has a winning record at home. If he goes home in the second round, who can afford to lose this guy!

He must find a way to strengthen his defense a little while his offense can compete with the Suns.

Two days before the game, Bird was still pulling the players to practice tactics.

NBA announced this year's DPOY winner.

Ben, who eventually moved to the Cavaliers, narrowly defeated DPOY Ryan last season and won the best defensive player award.

Big Ben's defensive performance in the Cavaliers this season is indeed good. In addition, the Cavaliers are also the league's top defensive team, so there is no big problem for Big Ben to win this award.

Moreover, DPOY voting is not inherently inclined to the outside.

Jordan was one of the strongest defensive line defenders throughout the 1990s, but he only won DPOY in the 1980s.

Pippen was even worse, not even getting a DPOY.

In fact, in the 1994-95 season, Pippen's defensive efficiency was the same as Ewing, who ranked first, and he was the only outside player in the top ten in defensive efficiency. Ranked second in the league in steals and led the league in steals that season. Without Jordan, Pippen also led the team to the fifth-best defense in the league.

But he ended up losing to Mutombo in the DPOY competition, and Mutombo didn't even score a single defense that year.

It can't be said that Mutombo is not good, it can only be said that DPOY has always been very inside-oriented.

When conditions are similar, everyone will subconsciously choose the larger one. This is human nature.

Refers to the bigger one!

The reason why there are more DPOYs on the outside after the small ball era is because there are really no options for the inside.

Not to mention the outside line, even the insider, the idiot, said that I haven't won the DPOY yet! Just because Duncan's defense is too stable and lacks passion, people tend to ignore him when voting.

Ryan's defense is actually not bad this season, but he still suffers from voting bias.

However, if you miss it, you will miss it. For outsiders, DPOY is not about getting a lot, but it is good to have it.

The most important thing is the championship!

But the Phoenix media used the topic to mock Ryan:

"Ryan's defense is not that strong either, and the Suns will soon prove that."

"This is only fair this year! If you ask me, Ryan should give last season's DPOY to Kirilenko. Hell, he is not even the best defensive player in the Nuggets!

"Ryan is an outside player who needs Kirilenko and Nene to help him get his butt. Why should he get the DPOY? Just laugh if he can pick it up once."

Ryan also didn't expect that losing DPOY would bring the Phoenix media to a climax.

No, I just didn’t get a DPOY. Why are you so excited that you seem to have defeated me?

Besides, when you worry about your own defense, you won't have to work so hard to get past the Spurs.

It can only be said that after defeating the Spurs, Phoenix was very swollen from top to bottom.

I understand, after all, Phoenix fans have not experienced the feeling of being defeated by the Nuggets in the playoffs.

It doesn't matter, Ryan just lets them experience it.

Although he missed DPOY, Ryan still received his second regular season MVP trophy at the press conference hall of the Pepsi Center the next day!

Four years and two MVPs later, Ryan made history again.

Although the Mavericks' record this year is not bad, Nowitzki has also become the fifth player in history to enter the 180 club.

That is, when a player makes at least 300 field goals, 82 three-pointers and 125 free throws throughout the season, his field goal percentage is at least 50%, his three-point shooting percentage is at least 40%, and his free throw percentage is at least 90%.

180 Club shows the player's all-round efficient scoring ability and is a sign of a player's ultimate scoring efficiency.

Stronger than Jordan, Kobe, and James, they have never been selected.

Relying on this and the fact that Ryan already won it last year, many people actually voted for Dirk.

But Ryan had the last laugh in the end. Although the Nuggets only won one more game than the Mavericks in the regular season, they still achieved the historic feat of winning at home.

Therefore, Ryan won the MVP for the second consecutive year, becoming the first player in NBA history to win two MVP trophies within four years of entering the league!

And two MVPs, this has already overwhelmed many stars.

Shaq, Big Dream, Barkley, Admiral and other famous players among the top 50 players, only have one MVP trophy in their lifetime.

Ryan has surpassed these great names in terms of MVP!

There is not much controversy this year about Ryan winning the MVP for two consecutive years. Most people are convinced.

The achievement of winning at home is indeed too hard.

Many fans joked that Ryan came here to buy goods. For him, MVP can easily fill a whole cabinet.

Although there is no doubt about Ryan's MVP, at the press conference for the awards, reporters will inevitably ask about tomorrow's Western Conference semifinals with the Suns.

"Ryan, Phoenix fans seem to think this team is a winner.

They all said that if the Spurs hadn't caused trouble last year, the championship last season would have been theirs.

How do you view your next opponent?

Are you confident of advancing to the Western Conference Finals? "

Ryan was playing with his MVP trophy with one hand and holding the microphone with the other:

“What they say is nonsense, assuming who doesn’t know it.

If I had hundreds of billions in assets, I would definitely be a big philanthropist.

If I had a girlfriend who was both beautiful and sexy, I would definitely wash her socks every day.

But you don’t have the key!

Suns fans have always said if if, no more if, there is no if! You have never felt the intensity of MVP in the playoffs, and you don't know the depth of MVP.

The Nuggets will definitely advance, the Phoenix Suns can't stop us! "

Ryan was not submissive at all and showed the confidence that an MVP should have.

But the reporters did not give up: "The Suns have the best offense in the league. Has the team found a way to curb their offense?"

"Of course, I know that the Suns have the best offense in the league, and many Phoenix fans and media are gloating because I lost DPOY, as if I can't guard them without DPOY.

It doesn't matter, they will soon find out that the Suns will not attack at all at the Pepsi Center! "

Ryan's words stirred up waves. He did not say that the Suns' offense would be restricted, but directly said that the Suns would not attack at all!

This is his most powerful and confident counterattack against the Phoenix media!

But this also made Phoenix fans quite angry.

The Suns won't attack? How dare you brag!

Who doesn't know how to play Liu Bei? The key is whether Liu Bip’s boast can become a reality!

If you can only blow but not do anything, that's called a boomerang!

In the eyes of Suns fans, Ryan's words are undoubtedly a boomerang!

However, since Ryan dared to say this at the MVP award ceremony, he naturally felt confident.

Phoenix fans will be disappointed to find out next that they passed the Spurs.

It makes absolutely no sense!

Today’s second update is here! 10,000 words have been updated for 45 days in a row, and I am begging for monthly votes! Thank you stepfathers!
