Chapter 323 Kings 1
"Oh, welcome to the youngest MVP in our history."
"Wang, you did a great job. I knew it was you early on."
"Congratulations, MVP."
……
As soon as they entered the locker room, everyone had already arrived, and they all expressed their congratulations to Wang Hao.
So does Gary Payton.
To be honest, at the beginning, Wang Hao thought that his mentality would be a little awkward.
After all, giving up the core position is more like nonsense, after all, you have to be able to take over the banner.
Moreover, Gary Payton's status has never declined.
However, when it comes to key interests, or honors, it is not so easy to accept.
Just like last season's All-Star Game, Gary Payton did his part when talking about the MVP before the game.
However, his condition that day was really bad.
In the All-Star game, with so many All-Star teammates, it is impossible to give you all the chances to shoot.
It is unrealistic to use more shots to get high scores.
If you want to win a prize, you must ensure your state, hit a higher hit rate, and have higher efficiency.
Gary Payton can't do it, he has lost the chance to compete for the All-Star MVP.
This is how Wang Hao successfully won the All-Star Game MVP.
Because of this, Gary Payton actually felt awkward for a few days, even if it was something he agreed to.
But looking at the MVP trophy in the All-Star Game is really greedy.
Back in the regular season, Gary Payton's style of play has changed significantly, with more aggressiveness.
To put it bluntly, I just want to prove myself.
Fortunately, as an old player, Gary Payton's character can also accept the team's second child. After a few games, he adjusted back.
However, now he is the MVP of the regular season!
When he saw Gary Payton's relaxed state of mind, Wang Hao suddenly realized that he seemed to have really looked away.
In other words, in the past, Gary Payton just accepted the position of the second child verbally, and now he accepts it psychologically.
"Wang, congratulations, I knew you could do it, but I never expected that this day would come so early!"
"Thank you, Mr. Coach."
Even the head coach Paul Westphal stopped what he was doing and congratulated Wang Hao.
However, he still said: "But, I also said to remind you that the regular season MVP is just the beginning.
I've seen a lot of people who won the regular season MVP but lost the championship.
This is undoubtedly the most disappointing, because the championship is everything, and the championship is the final winner. "
"I understand that this is just the beginning, not the end!"
Wang Hao said resolutely.
Of course he understands that regular season MVP is good, but there are also championship and finals MVPs.
His goal is not limited to this.
Training sessions, as well as pre-match tactical arrangements, time passed by little by little, and it was evening in a blink of an eye.
In the second round of the NBA playoffs, the game between the Sonics and the Kings is imminent!
Before the game, after a simple warm-up, the referee is already in the final communication with the technical table.
"CCTV, CCTV..."
At the same time, in the anticipation of countless Chinese, the TV broadcast of this game officially started.
However, the two familiar figures disappeared from the TV, which surprised the fans.
"Friends of the audience, I am the host Yang Jian, and I will broadcast today's game with Teacher Xu Jicheng.
As for Mr. Sun Zhengping and Director Zhang that everyone is familiar with, this meeting is already at the competition site in the United States.
After the meeting, two teachers will be on the spot to lead you a close-up electric broadcast. "
"That's right, when it comes to this year's game, there is one thing we have to say, Wang Hao was elected the MVP of this season's regular season."
Xu Jicheng also said aside, despite his calm appearance, when he first received the news, he was equally excited.
As a young man, Yang Jian was not so calm.
"Yes, Wang Hao is the first foreign player to win the NBA regular season MVP, this is the first time in history.
Not only that, Wang Hao also broke the record of the youngest regular season MVP held by Wes Unseld.
In the 1968-69 season, Wes Unseld, who was only 23 years and 9 days old, won the regular season MVP.
Today, the younger Wang Hao, who is only 21 years old and 136 days old, broke this record. "
Xu Jicheng was also somewhat affected: "This fully proves that Wang Hao is already the top star in the NBA.
This also proves that we Chinese people can also play in the NBA and become superstars in the basketball field! "
At this moment, the fans who already knew about it through TV news were naturally very excited.
There was no time to watch the news, and the fans who learned about this for the first time were extremely excited and proud.
We Chinese people can also win the MVP, and the MVP has already been won, so will the championship be far behind?
And some qualified fans have already vented their excitement through the Internet.
To sum it up in one sentence: Wang Hao is amazing!
Perhaps the two of them were a little excited, and they had to be reminded by the director of the TV station before they could concentrate.
They also followed the TV camera and came to the scene.
At this time, the key arena has become a green ocean, and the fans are shouting one after another.
Sun Zhengping's voice sounded: "Friends in the audience, big guys, welcome to the NBA game scene.
At present, players from the Sonics and Kings have come to the center of the field, and the game is about to begin. "
Zhang Lili also said: "Today, the atmosphere at the scene is very strong, and the arena is basically full of seats."
"Yes, because today's game is very important, the Kings are not an easy team to deal with."
Zhang Lili said: "That's right, this team is gorgeous in the NBA, they advocate offense, somewhat similar to the Sonics.
The Kings scored as high as 104.6 points this season, and also lost more than 97 points. "
The Kings' Princeton system is different from the Mavericks' bombardment tactics because they have not completely given up defense.
Compared with the Mavericks scoring and conceding more than 100 points, the Kings' defense is actually good.
Because of the faster offensive rhythm and more offensive rounds, losing points at 97 points is still within the allowable range.
Of course, it doesn't mean that their defense is so good.
It can only be that the Kings have the top offense in the NBA, and then there is an average-level defense.
"Di!"
With the sound of the game whistle, the game begins.
Divac's height advantage is there, which gives him a great advantage when jumping the ball.
Sure enough, he grabbed the first opportunity for the Kings.
Let me talk about the starters of the two teams first, they are actually similar, and there is no targeted adjustment.
For the Supersonics, Wang Hao and Gary Payton are still starting as partners, with Michael Reed and Lewis on the front line, and PJ Brown at the center.
As for the Kings, the guards are Mike Bibby and Doug Christie, the forwards are Peja and Chris Webber, and the center is Verati Divac.
Wang Hao was very surprised when he saw Peja appeared in the starting line-up, and even his face turned dark.
Wasn't this guy injured in the first round of the playoffs?How can you still fight?
You know, in the original time and space, Peja was injured in the second round of the playoffs and missed the game against the Lakers.
After missing four games, Peja didn't come back from injury until the fifth game in Tianwangshan.
It's just that Peja paid to play 3 games, all three games were on the bench, and the playing time was not long.
In 3 games, he scored a total of 20 points.
So, the battle between the Lakers and the Kings in the original time and space, in fact, the Kings are not perfect.
If Peja stays healthy, the Lakers may not win.
Therefore, for the evaluation of many people in later generations, Wang Hao does not agree with the saying that the Lakers who have won three consecutive championships are invincible.
Who were the opponents of the Lakers during their three consecutive championships?
Needless to say, the Eastern Conference in those years was a dawdle. The Pacers crippled Kobe and failed to win the game.
As for the digital team and the Nets, let alone, it is difficult to win a game.
Then in the West, David Robinson, one of the twin towers of the Spurs, is getting older and has been dawdling after winning the championship.
The Mavericks are still cultivating Nowitzki, but they have not been able to rise.
The real strong opponents of the Lakers are the Trail Blazers in the early stage and the Kings in the late stage.
The Lakers who have won three consecutive championships are very strong, but if you want to say that you have no opponents, it is only in the same period.
At the same time, there is no decent opponent.
A few years in advance, facing the Jazz and Sonics who are still at their peak, or going back a few years, facing the Spurs with a neat GDP, the Lakers do not have an overwhelming advantage.
It can only be said that the Lakers' three consecutive championships at the beginning of the century did show that the team was strong at the time, but there was also a lot of luck.
It seems that the Spurs won the championship in 99, but they were actually lucky.
Of course, luck is also a part of strength, Wang Hao does not deny it, but to say that the Lakers are invincible is definitely an exaggeration.
Well, the topic is getting further away, let's talk about Peja.
Perhaps it was because of Wang Hao's flapping wings that Peja was injured in the first round.
At that time, he thought that this was double happiness.
As a result, no one could have imagined that at this time, Peja came back, and he seemed to be in good condition.
During the training before the game, he saw Peja practicing three-pointers, and he scored several consecutively "bang bang bang".
This is too unfortunate!
The only good news is that they did not miss Peja when they arranged the game before the game because of the smoke bomb problem.
Today, Michael Reed will torture Peja physically, he is dying, and Quentin Richardson.
During the game, Mike Bibby dribbled the ball beyond the three-point line, and he consistently did not stand at the top of the arc.
This is the peculiarity of the Kings tactics, the point guard on one side, rather than in the middle of the organization.
Because in the center of the court, one step inside the three-point line, there are already two guys standing on the left and the right.
Chris Webber and Verati Divac, the two insiders did not go inside to claim positions, they all stood outside.
Mike Bibby did not delay, and immediately handed the ball to Chris Webber and handed him the organization.
That's where the Kings play succeeds because they have two big men who can pass the ball.
Chris Webber averaged 4.8 assists per game, and Divac averaged 3.7 assists per game, which is very telling.
Moreover, in this position, the two can not only pass the ball, but also attack.
In the original time and space, the reason why the Lakers played seven games against the Kings was that they couldn't guard against these two.
O'Neal couldn't get out of the paint at all. Whoever he was defending would pull out to the outside and shoot at mid-range.
It's a pity that the supersonic speed is not afraid of this trick.
Chris Webber held the ball in a high position, and Lewis posted it immediately, without giving him a chance to make a shot.
Not only is he not allowed to shoot, but he is not even given a chance to pass the ball well.
Big men have the advantages of big men in passing the ball, such as height, such as vision.
However, there are also disadvantages, that is, he has to wait for him to observe slowly, wait for his teammates to move, and pass the ball slowly.
However, the Sonics didn't give a chance at all, and Lewis directly pressed the defense, and the whole person stuck up.
Sure enough, Chris Webber didn't dare to be careless, so he could only choose to turn his back and was blocked by Lewis.
But in this way, with his back to the basket, he has no way to carry out any tactics.
Mike Bibby quickly stepped up, passed the ball hand-in-hand with Chris Webber, and took over the task of offensive organization.
Not only that, he also used Divac to continuously pick and roll to find a chance to break through.
If it had been someone else, he would probably have rushed over directly.
Still take the game between the Lakers and the Kings as an example. With Peja injured, Mike Bibby carried the offense and averaged 22.7 points per game.
One very important reason is that Fisher can't defend well.
Then a big delay by PJ Brown, Gary Payton stopped Mike Bibby and prevented him from driving directly to the paint.
You know, the current situation is that the two insiders of the Kings are outside, and the insiders of the Supersonics are also outside.
It can be said that the Sonics' interior defense is very empty.
However, Mike Bibby was also prepared, and he returned the ball directly to Divac.
Whether it is Mike Bibby or Divac, they are all players with high basketball IQ, otherwise they would not be able to play Princeton.
Even Divac has considered PJ Brown's mobility. He knows that if he stands still, PJ Brown will definitely be able to return to the defense.
Ever since, after giving Mike Bibby as a pick and roll, he immediately began to go down the inside.
Sure enough, although PJ Brown is fast, he can only defend behind Divac.
At this time, Mike Bibby passed the ball again, and Divac could already face the empty basket.
The Kings thought very well, but...the Supersonics had already prepared.
After Divac got the ball in the three-second zone, he took three steps directly. His intention was to dunk directly.
Then, when he turned his head to look at the basket, he saw a figure moving quickly from the corner of his eye.
When he was about to jump up and dunk, the figure had already appeared in front of him and jumped high.
This person is naturally Wang Hao!
Divac is taller and seems to be able to dunk the ball into the basket with just a little jump.
But what everyone can see with the naked eye is that Wang Hao jumped up very fast, surpassing Divac in the blink of an eye.
"Snapped!"
Without being polite at all, Wang Hao first served a big hot pot.
The flying basketball just fell into the hands of PJ Brown, and without any hesitation, PJ Brown immediately sent it to Gary Payton.
The Supersonic's rapid offensive and defensive transition began.
