The Fifth Point Guard

"Fifth shooting guard new ( to find the latest chapter!

With the end of the first round of the playoffs, several important awards for the 04-05 season have been released.

The most watched regular season most valuable player was won by Steve Nash of the Suns.

With the Suns' fast-tracking whirlwind and the league's first record, Nash's MVP vote was higher than the Cleveland Cavaliers' Shentong 20 votes, winning by a narrow margin.

Shentong’s voice is actually very high, but the Cavaliers performed well last season, and there are also players such as James, Big Z, Wagner, Miller, etc., so when it comes to the sense of surprise and surprise it brings to people, the Suns The team is undoubtedly better.

In addition to the convincing record of the Suns' 62 wins, Nash's personal performance is not weak.

Averaged 15.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 11.5 assists, 50.2% shooting, 43.1% three-pointers and 88.7% free throws.

11.5 assists is the league's top assists this season, and his shooting percentage has also entered the club with 180!

More importantly, under the leadership of Nash, several starters of the Suns all played the most exciting season of their career.

Nash is like a halo that increases the buff, injecting vitality into the Suns who have been hovering on the edge of the Western Conference playoffs.

Stoudemire averaged 26.0 points, 8.9 assists and 1.6 blocks per game and was promoted to the league's first-tier stars.

Sean Marion also averaged 19.4 points and 11.3 assists in a double-double. In addition, he also had 2.0 steals and 1.5 blocks on the defensive end, making him an all-around "hacker" on both offense and defense.

When Shentong learned that he was ranked behind Nash in the final regular season MVP selection, Shentong was not too surprised.

First of all, in the last time and space, Nash was the MVP of the season.

After losing 3-4 through the Rockets and Mavericks series, Shentong understood a truth, that is, if you want to change your fate, even in parallel time and space, it is quite difficult to break the "fact" of another time and space. thing.

Like myself, even if he has the "Basketball Space", he is just joining the Nets in the second season, working hand in hand with Jason Kidd, Richard Jefferson and Kenyon Martin to break The historical torrent of the last time and space won a championship.

Therefore, with the "experience" of Yao Ming and the Rockets this season, Shentong knows that any change is not so easy.

......

While Nash won the regular season MVP, the league also awarded the best coach to the Suns.

De-Antoine received this honor, and his moustache was fluttering with joy.

He has to thank Steve Nash, otherwise he may not be able to survive a season.

You know, after taking over the Suns from Frank Johnson last season, D'Anthony only brought the Suns to a 21-40 record.

However, De-Anthony's system also stimulated Nash's potential.

He and Nash can be said to have achieved each other this season.

De Anthony's fast playing system is very suitable for Nash's play style.

And Nash is also the most suitable organizer in the De-Anthony system.

......

This season's best sixth man award went to Ben Gordon of the Chicago Bulls.

The Bulls have made considerable progress in their wins this season. If the Suns hadn't been too amazing, the Bulls head coach Scott Skiles would be very promising to be the best coach.

The improvement of the Bulls' record this season is inseparable from Gordon's contribution.

Although he is the team's substitute player, Gordon has shown his big heart in his rookie season, and has repeatedly become the absolute core of the team in the final moments of the game and sent the winning blow.

As a rookie on the team but the old style of the game, he averaged 15.5 points, 2.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game, and his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 40.5%.

Although he didn't get the best rookie pick, Gordon undoubtedly looks like a very bright future.

......

The winner of the most improved player award is the Clippers' Bobby Simmons.

This guy who was abused by Shentong in the draft training camp finally got a new life in the fourth season of his career.

He seemed to have suddenly regained his senses, regaining the feeling of playing at the University of Florida.

Points, rebounds, assists, steals, field goal percentage, and three-point shooting percentage are all career highs!

And in the first three seasons, Simmons, who had only a 28.6% three-point shooting percentage, suddenly broke out on the three-point line this season, shooting a terrifying 43.5% shooting percentage throughout the season.

Averaged 16.4 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.4 steals. Simmons, who was in his contract year, failed to help the Clippers reach the playoffs, but it looks like he will get a very good contract extension this summer. contract.

......

Although the Detroit Pistons were unexpectedly upset and lost to the Washington Wizards led by Arenas in the first round of the playoffs, the award for the best defensive player was awarded to "Big Ben" Ben Wallace.

Wallace is still commendable on the defensive end this season, averaging 9.7 points, 12.2 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.4 steals and 2.4 blocks per game. His spirit and defensive ability are indispensable assets for Detroit.

For Wallace's re-election as the best defensive player, everyone said that this is well-deserved.

......

In addition, the alliance has successively awarded various data king awards.

Shentong of the Cleveland Cavaliers, with a stunning performance of 34.7 points per game, won the scoring leader for the second consecutive year!

Allen Iverson also played a scoring season, but his scene is 30.7 points behind Shen Tong by 4 points.

Although the Timberwolves failed to make the playoffs this season, Kevin Garnett won the title of rebounding champion for the second consecutive year with 13.5 rebounds per game.

The assist king is Nash, who averaged 11.5 assists per game.

The candidate for the block king is amazing.

Utah Jazz small forward Andre Kirilenko won the title of the season's blocked shots with an average of 3.2 blocks per game.

He is also the first non-inside player to win the blocked shots since the record of blocking statistics in NBA history, which is a new history.

The steal is the Wizards' Larry Hughes.

As one of the Wizards' Three Musketeers, Hughes ranks second in the ranking of the best defensive players, only behind Ben Wallace, which proves his defensive skills.

Shentong: Defense? Larry Hughes? Give me a break...

Hughes averaged 2.9 steals per game, a record high in steals in the past decade.

As for the league's best team and defensive team selection is still in progress, is expected to be announced later in the playoffs.

......

On May 17, 2005, the second round of the playoffs started a few games first.

In the face of the menacing Boston Celtics led by Pierce, Shen Tong and James waited at home.

In the first home game, the Cavaliers played neither rush nor impatient, and always controlled the rhythm of the game in their own hands.

When the Celtics offered Anthony Walker, Paul Pierce, Tony Allen, Ricky Davis, and Gary Payton in the third quarter, the Cavaliers also changed teams immediately. , Sent a small lineup of Drew Gooden, LeBron James, Reggie Miller, Shentong and Dajuan Wagner.

The Cavaliers saw the trick, and did not give the Celtics any chance.

99-89, the Cavaliers beat the Celtics with 10 points at home and got a good start to the series.

Shentong, who won the second scoring trophy in his career, scored 35 points in this game, which is a regular performance, in addition to 7 rebounds and 7 assists.

James still plays the role of second master, averaging 23 points per game, while also getting 10 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 4 blocks.

Pierce is the Celtics' best-performing player, he scored 21 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals.

......

In the second game, the Cavaliers were still incapable.

97-75 another victory, the total score is 2-0.

It seems that they will sweep their opponents again.

Shentong scored 39 points in this game. Although Tony Allen tried his best on the defensive end, he could not stop Shentong's offense.

In an interview after the game, Allen shook his head and said his thoughts when facing reporters' questions.

"He can't defend at all. I feel like he is playing like a **** wearing the No. 25 jersey every day. He has too many scoring methods and there is no blind zone in the offense. Sometimes you can't tell whether his next goal is going to be. Breakthrough will still shoot or pass the ball. What is even more annoying is that when he wants to ensure a goal, he will hit you back, and then end the fight with backwards. Seriously, I can’t defend myself alone. his."

Perhaps after hearing Tony Allen's complaint, Doug Rivers made adjustments on the defensive end.

Shentong encountered tremendous pressure on the defensive end.

Even when he broke through to the inside, he encountered double blocks from Al Jefferson and Jeff LaFrenz.

On the perimeter, Gary Payton will help Tony Allen double-team Shentong.

In the third game, Shentong "only" scored 26 points in the away game. The team also lost 91-93 to the Boston Celtics back home.

However, Shentong is like a spring with full elasticity. It will rebound with full force when it encounters a little pressure.

In the fourth game, Shentong fully fired up, hitting 7 three-pointers from the outside, breaking through the layup, leaning back, and making jump shots.

This night, Boston was silent.

Shentong scored 50 points and personally allowed the Cavaliers to return to Cleveland with a score of 3-1.

In the fifth game, the Cavaliers did not continue the suspense of this series.

They beat their opponents 111-100 at home and kicked Boston out of the playoffs 4-1.

With such a luxurious lineup, but only to win a victory on the Cavaliers, the pressure on Doug Rivers is evident.

After the defeat, Rivers told the media that the team will make some changes.

"Boston's history is glorious and enterprising. Only real men can play for this city. The soft guy is not worthy of standing on the court wearing a Celtic jersey!"

The media generally believed that Rivers's remarks were directed at the returning Antoine Walker.

This guy almost all floated on the outside in the game with the Cavaliers, shooting crazy three-pointers.

It seems that Walker is running out of time in Boston.

......

On the second day after the Cavaliers eliminated the Celtics, the Miami Heat sent Arenas and the Wizards back home with the same score.

In front of the powerful insider Big Mac O'Neal, all three musketeers, troikas, three horses, etc. are all scum.

Arenas tried his best. In 5 games, he averaged 23 points, 6.2 rebounds and 7.4 assists. He even surpassed the Heat's Wade, but he could do nothing for the big O'Neal.

Whether it is Haywood or Kwame Brown, they are all just younger brothers in front of O'Neill.

O'Neal averaged 22.4 points, 12 rebounds, 3 assists and 2.4 blocks per game, leading the Heat to pass the second round easily and into the Eastern Conference Finals.

In the finals, they will meet the Cavaliers led by Shentong and James.

After the game, O'Neal reviewed the first two rounds of the series and looked forward to the next round.

"It's true. The first two rounds of the series were a combination of sugar and honey for us. You know, when the Wizards unexpectedly defeated the Pistons, what did I say to Dwyane? I said, buddy. Look, God gave us a gift. We should prepare for the Eastern Conference Finals."

Obviously, O'Neal did not put the Pacers and Wizards in mind.

"We only played the seventh Pacers and the sixth Wizards in the first two rounds. Eliminating them is a very normal result for us who ranked second. But the opponents in the Eastern Conference Finals are the Cavaliers with Shentong and LeBron. This The round series is the real challenge, but I am eager to challenge and we are ready."

......

After the opponents in the Eastern Conference Finals were determined, the two teams participating in the Western Conference Finals also emerged.

In the first half, the Suns defeated the Mavericks 4-2. While Nash led the team to the Western Conference finals, he also reported his revenge for being abandoned by the Mavericks.

Both sides played offensive basketball in this round of the series, and both teams scored more than 100 points in each game.

But the whirlwind seems to be more beneficial to the Suns.

After playing 2-2 in the first four games, the Suns went down to two consecutive cities and beat the Mavericks 4-2.

After the sixth game, Nash and Nowitzki embraced.

Although playing for different teams, the friendship between the two has not been affected in any way.

......

In the second half, the Spurs defeated the Dark Horse Sonics with the same score.

The old Spurs are still so calm, slowly grinding the Sonics to death like a frog in warm water.

After the Spurs took a 2-0 lead, the Sonics returned home and stubbornly tied the score to 2-2.

But the Spurs have more experience. In the Battle of Tianwangshan, they beat the Sonics 103-90.

In this game, the Argentine Manu Ginobili took off.

He scored crazily 39 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals, with only 1 turnover. The efficiency was terrifying.
