554. Another draft year full of talents (seeking double months)(1/2)

It’s not that Ben Wallace is too confident, he is really likely to steal Zhang Hao’s player of the month.

In March, he performed well, and his performance was affected in mid-to-late February. However, after Odom integrated well in March, Ben Wallace's performance stabilized again, and even played the best defensive efficiency since December, stabilizing the average defensive efficiency of the season to above 9!

This really may hinder Zhang Hao from breaking the record of the best times in a single season.

In the past five seasons, only 4 players have won the Player of the Month three times in a single season, Zhang Hao, Iverson, McGrady, and now Duncan.

And it is not guaranteed that Duncan can become the first player of the 4-time best in a single season since the new century!

Zhang Hao has won the Best Player Award three times in a single season, won the MVP twice, and was snatched away by Iverson in 2001 because Lian Zhuang's MVP requirements were higher. With almost the same performance in the season, Iverson gained the upper hand.

This season, it looks very similar, and it is the superstar of the 76ers and the best player in the month... Now there is a chance to create a new single season best player in the month, but!

Even if you have the opportunity to set a new record, the two are tied for the chance!

Like Ben Wallace, the Supersonics team has many more worries about Zhang Hao Lianzhuang's MVP.

Zhang Hao has a unique charm that always makes people worry about it.

This kind of "worry" has been changing. At the beginning, it was Kenny Anderson's fear of being bad and being bullied. At the back, it became O'Neal and Kassel's fear of being beaten, and then... it was changing all the time.

Now, as a teammate, whether he can help Zhang Hao become the greatest person has become a worry for a good group of teammates.

Because no matter how you look at it, Zhang Hao is a special player like the Magician and Jordan, and even more special.

It is normal for Zhang Hao to succeed. If he fails, it will be the blame for his teammates. The current mainstream public opinion trend is currently underway.

Zhang Hao has always cared about the MVP.

If you don't win the best player in March, it's basically gone.

There is still a chance now!

Zhang Hao remembers that in the original time and space, Duncan won Lianzhuang MVP in 201-02 and 202-03 seasons. It was also possible in 203-04 season. Duncan achieved the best efficiency in his career in terms of personal performance, and achieved the best efficiency with the lowest playing time in the first seven years of his career, and entered the peak of combining physical conditions, technology and experience.

But unfortunately, after the 2003-04 season, Duncan collapsed due to injuries and turned from a superstar who surpassed everyone to an ordinary superstar.

Zhang Hao was very excited when he saw Duncan this season. He felt that Duncan this season was as strong as Duncan in the 2003-04 season. His physical fitness, technology, experience, team... everything was combined so well.

It is naturally a pleasure to compete for MVP with such Duncan.

If you can win, you will be even happier.

Zhang Hao analyzed that his personal performance is almost the same now. In April, it is likely that they will win the best player of the month. If not, neither of them may be able to win...

The key is still yourself!

With Duncan, 50 wins are enough to make the first MVP.

Zhang Hao remembers that when Duncan won the MVP in 2001-02, the Spurs were not the best in the league, just like Zhang won the first MVP in 2009.

But in the 2002-03 season, Duncan led the team to surpass the Kings in April and became the league's number one, and became the real MVP number one hottest and surpassed Kidd.

In the end, Duncan defeated Kidd, who won 29.8% of the votes with only 34.2% and completed the MVP of Lianzhuang. At that time, Duncan won 60 wins, while Kidd won only 49 wins.

MVP was originally a single season, but it was often not like this.

But every superstar competes for MVP like this, so there is nothing unfair...

...

In April, the schedule for the 4th began to play away games in a row, Texas played three consecutive away games, the Rockets, the Spurs, the Spurs, and the Mavericks, the 8th played.

Next, the Timberwolves will play at home on the 11th, the Bulls will play away on the 14th, the Jazz will play away on the 16th, the Kings will play at home on the 18th, and the Suns will end at home on the 20th.

It went smoothly. At the beginning of April, the Supersonics defeated the Rockets and Spurs continuously, and their record increased to 60 wins and 16 losses, becoming the first team to win 60 wins this season!

During this period, on April 5, in the NCAA final, Syracuse University rushed to the finals and won the NCAA Basketball Championship. Freshman Carmelo Anthony directly topped the NCAA and won the semi-finals. Anthony, who was only 19 years old in May this year, announced that he would participate in the draft in advance and enter the NBA.

Anthony announced his participation in the draft, making this year's already crazy draft even more lively.

It is not easy for the NCAA to be hit by high school students and the NBA this year.

This year there are three high school contests in the U.S. National Live St. Mary's High School matches in Akron, Ohio.

LeBron James, an 18-year-old talented high school student, revealed at the beginning of this season that he did not have the idea of ​​playing in the NCAA. Like Kwame Brown, Chandler and Eddie Curry in the 2001 class, he became the No. 1 pick favorite.

Serbia's center Dako Milicic has continued to attract the attention of American fans in recent years.

As early as 1999, Milicic, who was only 14 years old, showed amazing talent in the World Youth Championship.

Chris Bosh, a freshman at Georgia Tech, Bosh, who was not particularly dazzling in high school, lost his freshman season, averaging 15.9 points, 9.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.6 blocks per game, which reminded all major media of Yao Ming in his freshman season!

NBA-style inclination has begun.

All teams want to get a talented insider like Bosh as soon as possible, just like the Wizards know that Yao Ming will stay in the NCAA for one more year to maintain his college degree as a college student to play in the University Games, even if Bosh is not outstanding in the NBA now, but is talented, all teams are willing to express their willingness to choose a freshman without violating the rules.

Former Hawks coach Long Krugerthus, who may have been selected in the top five or even the top three, returned to Georgia Tech, couldn't sleep all night after being eliminated in March Madness, and finally encouraged Bosh to boldly participate in the draft.

These three popular rookies were originally basically locked in the top three picks.

Anthony was originally regarded as likely to be playing in the NCAA for 3-4 years, just like Duncan, Kobe, and Yao Ming, and then entered the NBA again after being fully physically. He participated in the draft in advance, which surprised many people.

Anthony is different from other black genius teenagers. His family is quite special and he is not the kind of person who has to make money by playing basketball.

Simply put, Anthony's family is in Baltimore, the city of American gangs.

It was really surprising that Anthony's early draft was a show.

But the internal plot has begun, and geniuses run early, so they must choose. The structure of the top three rankings is broken!

In addition to these four stars, Chris Carman, a close-kick state major with both German and American nationalities, lost to Anthony's Kansas star Kirk Hinrich and Nick Collison in the NCAA final, TJ Ford of Derby at Austin, Jarvis Hayes of the University of Georgia, and others also had high draft calls.

These people are different from those four. They are traditional draft geniuses aged 20 to 22. They are almost all regarded as players who can bring huge influence to the team by entering the NBA.

After the third draft from 2000 to 2002, the expectations for the draft from 2003 showed the 2003 feeling of the 2006 draft from 2006 to 2009.

After Yao Ming also entered the NBA, Zhang Hao didn't pay much attention to the NCAA, but he still watched the NCAA finals on the 5th and followed the draft.

As a result, he found that the 'Jordan, who was 5 cm shorter, seemed to have no news.

I went to check it out, but I found out that Marquette University, a weak team, Wade, did not qualify for playing in his freshman season and performed well in his sophomore season. He led his team to the NCAA Final Four in the first quarter of the year. Although he was not shortlisted for the Wooden Award, he was selected for the first team of the All-American team.

Then, there is nothing else that is too eye-catching.

21 and a half years old, with a serious injury, removed the meniscus of one leg, and played in small forwards and shooting guards, but he prefers to be tall, has almost no shooting, and has poor learning and cognitive abilities...

He is also a popular rookie and is predicted to enter the lottery zone.

Zhang Hao felt the strong "Lakeman style" of Wade's public opinion.

The Lakers don’t have such a high pick, so they are not logo men, they must be the greasy head in Miami.

Currently, the Grizzlies are second to last in the West and the Heat are second to last in the East. The two draft picks that the Heat have ranked second and fourth in the probability of winning the No. 1 pick respectively.

If the Cavaliers have the strength, if they don’t do it well, they will become the strongest team in the East. There is no hometown basketball anymore. Zhang Hao is very curious about where James is going...

If the Heat really get the No. 1 pick, will they choose James?

...

On April 8, the Supersonics arrived in Dallas, Texas played the last game in three consecutive away games, playing the Mavericks.

Relying on Nowitzki's 39 points and 10 rebounds, White Chocolate's 14 points and 8 assists, Divac's 7 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, Finley's 22 points... The Mavericks narrowly defeated the Supersonics 98-94!

The Supersonics still couldn't hold back in the last game of three consecutive away games, and suffered a 17th loss in the season, with a record of 60 wins and 17 losses. After a five-game winning streak, the Mavericks' record increased to 59 wins and 18 losses!

The Supersonics and the Mavericks have finished all four games this season, and the two teams have won 2 wins and 2 losses.

The Lakers have already lost the 19th game of the season and have few games left. There are no possibility of catching up with the Supersonics.

But the Mavericks still have a chance!

The record is almost the same, and the winning rates in their respective regions are also similar. If the final two teams have the same record, it is hard to say who will win the regular season championship!

Just like Zhang Hao's prediction that the final MVP belongs to whether he can lead the team to win the regular season championship, major media also guide public opinion in this way.

The media guided public opinion in this regard, that is, they are really sure that Lianzhuang MVP will be linked to their results.

MVP was originally voted by the media.

After playing for three consecutive visits in Texas, the Supersonics returned to Seattle.

After two days of rest, the fourth season of the Timberwolves was in the match against the Timberwolves. The Supersonics won 2 wins and 1 loss in the first three matches. This time, the Timberwolves did not give the Timberwolves another chance. On April 11, the Supersonics defeated the Timberwolves 100-92 and won the 61st victory of the season.

The Mavericks, who won with the Supersonics, became the second team to win 60 wins this season. After defeating the Kings, the Mavericks' record improved to 60 wins and 18 losses!

...

...

On April 13, 2003, the Supersonics came to Chicago, and the Supersonics will challenge the Bulls away tomorrow.

In the afternoon, the Bulls held a statue unveiling ceremony for Michael Jordan.

This is a big event, and Jordan has once again become the focus.

This time, a No. 24 player who did not want to be named finally couldn't steal the limelight!

Not only that, the scene of another 24th laughing like a 200-pound big fat man on the scene was widely discussed.

A No. 24 player who did not want to be named has made some classic comments

"I didn't imitate him, my skills are the same, and the powerful skills are always the same."
