Chapter 124: Awards Selection, the First in the World! (Additionally updated a total of 10,000 words in one day, begging for subscriptions)_2
Such a splendid backcourt lineup...
If Paul fails to punish it in the game, then Qin Yue can only say...
The NCAA Championship trophy he won with Paul during college is likely the greatest achievement of his entire career.
...
On the 7th, the NBA officially announced the various regular season awards for the 06/07 season.
In Oakland.
Furious Warriors fans almost instantly stormed the NBA's official website.
"Scandal! Scandal! Scandal!"
In response, the confused league stated that they had seen this episode before.
Because after repeatedly verifying several times...
They didn't find anything wrong with the press release they wrote.
Qin Yue, with a high vote count, was elected the NBA's regular season MVP for the 06/07 season.
And he became the first MVP in NBA history to come from Asia.
Moreover, Qin Yue also became the third player in NBA history, after Michael Jordan and The Dream - Olajuwon, to win both the regular season MVP and DPOY in the same season.
David Stern didn't understand, with such a Qin Yue...
What more could the league do to satisfy the world?
"Why wasn't the Messiah a unanimous MVP? On what grounds did LeBron James steal votes from him?"
"Shameful vote thief! The league single-handedly ruined the Messiah's perfect season!"
"Despicable Jews, one day you will be burned alive!"
Obviously, the NBA couldn't award both the MVP and DPOY trophies to Qin Yue and allow him to be voted MVP unanimously.
After all, in case the 23-year-old Qin Yue performs miracles in the future...
Where would the league find room for his improvement?
In fact, if it weren't for Qin Yue's impressive defensive stats this year...
Plus the league wanting to appease the fans who were infuriated last year when Qin Yue didn't get the MVP, Stern wouldn't even want Qin Yue to repeat as the best defensive player this year.
However, the league's wise decision to ultimately award Qin Yue the DPOY trophy this year...
Also inadvertently saved this great honor from being tainted by Marcus Camby.
Historically, with regular season stats averaging 3.2 blocks and 1.2 steals per game, in the 06/07 season, Camby not only raised the average height of the DPOY honor but also single-handedly lowered the value of this honor.
This season, just by looking at defensive stats, Qin Yue was far better than Camby.
And with Qin Yue's determination to not just be a stat padder, he will eventually use his continuous progress in defense to prove his "two-way play."
Therefore, compared to Camby holding onto this trophy he is destined not to handle, this DPOY trophy...
Absolutely belongs to Qin Yue!
In addition, this year's Rookie of the Year was awarded to "Little Cat King" Brandon Roy.
The most improved player and the best sixth man both went to the Lakers' Monta Ellis.
Knight coach Mike Brown narrowly beat Mike Malone in the race for best coach.
Since before Malone coached the Warriors, they were already the reigning champions, which affected his score among his peers.
It is worth mentioning that this year's first and second place in the best coach selection, Brown and Malone, worked together last season.
This inevitably made people feel the strength of the Knight coaching staff.
However, for this group with ulterior motives, Qin Yue, as James' good brother, saw through their intentions at a glance.
Impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
From "Young James" to "Old James," as long as Qin Yue's memory is correct...
James has never collaborated with a "great coach" in his entire career?
Brown and Malone just happened to benefit from the Chosen One and Messiah's blessings as mediocre coaches!
Even if in Qin Yue's memory, Brown was once a unanimous choice for NBA's best coach, and even if Malone, who assisted James for years as an assistant coach, would lead the Nuggets to sweep the Lakers led by Thanos James in the future...
It still doesn't prove they are "great coaches"!
In Qin Yue's eyes, only coaches like Doug Rivers and Steve Kerr among the top fifteen can be called great coaches.
Of course...
If you ask if Qin Yue would want to be coached by these two top fifteen coaches...
Qin Yue can only say...
If Mulin dares to let these two coach the Warriors, then he dares to apply to be transferred to Toronto and Minnesota.
On the day of award selection, the results of the best lineup and best defensive lineup were also a focus for the fans.
For the 06/07 season, the results of the NBA best lineup and best defensive lineup are as follows:
Best First Team: Yao Ming, Nowitzki, Qin Yue, Kobe, Nash.
Best Second Team: Stoudemire, Duncan, James, Wade, Paul.
Best Third Team: Howard, Garnett, Anthony, Arenas, Billups.
Best Defensive First Team: Big Ben, Qin Yue, Duncan, Kobe, Bell.
Best Defensive Second Team: Camby, Garnett, Prince, Bowen, Jason Kidd.
Although Qin Yue's appearance greatly altered the original trajectory of the NBA, in Qin Yue's memory...
This year's selection results reflected the only time in NBA history where the best first team and the best defensive first team were entirely occupied by players from the same division.
The overextended Phoenix Suns in the regular season ultimately received two consolation prizes in the best lineup selection.
The steady performance of the Supersonics' Big Three in the regular season allowed Kevin Garnett, last season's "no lineup power forward," to return to the best lineup and best defensive lineup.
Howard and Paul's progress this season also did not go unnoticed.
