Chapter 857 [Returning the Pearl, Comparable to the Famous House]

The lineup of the Grizzlies has long been unrecognizable compared to Yang Rui's previous life, and the young players are in charge, and after several seasons of running-in, they have gradually become a strong team.

Lillard and McLuum on the outside, small forward Tyshawn Prince, and Jordan Jr. on the inside partner Jeff Green.

The Grizzlies' style of play is quite simple, the outside offense is the mainstay, the four people pull away, Lillard and Jordan Jr. play blocking and dismantling in the middle, you can hold the ball and force the basket by yourself, or you can give Jordan Jr. an empty cut to attack, or attract the bag to shoot to the outside teammates.

The Grizzlies bench relied on Benno Youdri, Tony Allen, Nick Carlaces, Jon Loyle, and Costa Kouvers to rotate five people, and the defense was lively, the offense was not enough, and they were comprehensively suppressed by the Clippers bench bandits.

The Grizzlies were able to sweep in the first round, not because they were super strong, but because the Nuggets were too weak, and Gallinari was injured and sidelined. The Grizzlies don't have many offensive points, Jordan Jr. still has the Achilles' heel of bad free throws, and Yang Rui's shark slashing tactics make the Grizzlies unable to attack fluently, and the offensive rhythm is easily disrupted.

4-0, the Clippers swept the Grizzlies, and Yang Rui once again led the team to the division finals.

Jordan Jr.'s series was blown out by Pau Gasol.

Looking at age and body, Jordan Jr. seems to have a more promising future than Gasol, he has a slam dunk contest-level bounce, a perverted arm span, the speed of a leopard, and the strength of a bear...... But than the role in the system, Gasol threw him a few streets.

As long as Gasol pulls to the outside of the three-point line to block and dismantle, catch and shoot or respond to passing, Jordan Jr. was immediately deflated and forced to change guards, and then he was played around, due to the relatively outward defense, Jordan Jr. averaged only 11 rebounds per game in the series, and the offensive end was a big hole.

In another series in the West, the Mavericks led the Rockets 3-1 and were about to advance. The Rockets eliminated the Spurs 4-3 in the first round, but they were still beaten only with the ability to parry, and there was no way to fight back.

Not only the three stars of Nowitzki, Paul, and Gasol Jr., but Monta Ellis also performed very eye-catching.

In this playoffs, Ellis averaged 22 points, 2.1 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game, shooting 46.8% from the field and 36.7% from three-point range, and slightly inferior to the free throw line, shooting only 75%.

Ellis was thriving as a sixth-man man in the Mavericks, and his breakthroughs were very sharp, and his three-point points were more accurate than before.

The three stars of the Rockets also performed well, but they were inferior to the Mavericks as a whole, especially in the bench competition, and the Rockets role players couldn't do it for three points, so they relied on quick counterattacks to fight chaotically.

The Rockets with Bosh are stronger than Yang Rui in his previous life, but he can only fight for a draw in the face of the veteran Nowitzki, and he can't prevent Nowitzki's "Golden Rooster Independence".

Howard on the inside hates Gasol Jr.'s type of center the most, and he can't play on the offensive end. Gasol Jr. has poor mobility, but he has the height and strength to jam Howard from outside the box. Howard's poor back-to-back ability can't pass Gasol Jr.'s level.

The worst person who was cheated was Harden, his statistics in the playoffs were also very eye-catching, and his performance was not inferior to the regular season, but he couldn't even enter the Western Conference finals, how could he win the MVP?

Harden also cheated himself, everyone knows that he likes to go to nightclubs, and Coremi's most common phrase is "Los Angeles at four in the morning." Harden is even more bullish, often seeing Houston at two o'clock in the morning.

This bad habit of his has caused Adam Silva to dislike, and Silva is not willing to make him the MVP unless the results and statistics are convincing.

The second round is underway, and the major awards have been announced.

Wiggins, the Hawks' No. 1 pick, won the Rookie of the Year award, averaging 16.5 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game, and with a great teammate, he quickly adapted to the NBA.

Zach LaVine was named to the rookie second team and his strength was recognized.

The Sixth Man of the Year was won by the Clippers' Rudy Gay, who averaged 31.8 minutes per game, 17 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.7 assists while shooting 46.2% from the field and 34.4% from three-point range.

Gay's stats are down from last season, but there are really few people in the league who can compete with him for the sixth man position, he is like the Clippers' Ginobili, who can steal points on the court, but he doesn't pass much, and generally catching the ball is to finish the offense.

The most improved player was acquired by the Nets' Jimmy Butler, who averaged 17.7 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3 assists per game, and went from a defensive blue-collar to the core of the team and was selected as an All-Star.

The best coach was won by the Eagles' Budenhozer, and the team also selected the top pick last season, which is a huge improvement.

The Clippers players made a big splash in terms of awards, with Draymond Green winning the Defensive Player of the Year. The Clippers rank fourth in the league in limiting opponents in scoring and second in defensive efficiency, and much of the credit for Chandler's departure goes to Draymond.

Unlike Yang Rui's previous life, the Spurs' overall defensive statistics are not as good as the Clippers, and "Death Entanglement" is mainly aimed at single defense, and as one of the best wing small forwards, Leonard can only be relegated to second.

Yang Rui often communicates with the players in the team and eats together, and he especially told Draymond not to talk nonsense in the face of the media, "chasing eggs" in this life is just "chasing dreams", his emotional intelligence seems to be a little higher, and he successfully won the award.

All-Defensive First Team: Chris Paul, Tony Allen, Kawhi Leonard, Draymond Green, DeAndre Jordan.

Second team: John Wall, Danny Green, Jimmy Butler, Tim Duncan, Anthony Davis.

Danny Green's defense has also been recognized, and although his three-point shooting percentage has dropped, he has been reliable on the defensive end, and he often has to face super scorers, and he has done a good job of breaking through the rim and interfering with shots.

Originally, Yang Rui only wanted to train the green on the inside into a golden lock, but he didn't expect the green on the outside to also practice it, and the two of them got together to surround the penalty area, and they could already be called "Huanzhu Gege".

Curry was once again the regular season MVP, and like the world announced, another superstar appeared.

The last person to achieve this feat was back in the '80s, when Larry "Big Bird" Bird was a three-time MVP in the '84-86 season.

The conditions for a three-time MVP are very difficult, first of all, the players themselves are top-notch; secondly, it is necessary to ensure that the state is in good condition for three consecutive years and cannot be seriously injured; Finally, the team must be at the top of the league.

For nearly three decades, what Jordan, Magic, Kobe, and James have failed to do, Curry has accomplished.

Even if he was mentally prepared, Curry still couldn't believe it when he received the notice, he was still Paul's backup when he joined the Clippers, and he couldn't have imagined that he could get to this point.

Former Bucks owner Herb Kerr was even more unexpected, so he cried and fainted in the toilet several times, and after last season, he finally sold the Bucks and left the sad place of Milwaukee. He couldn't stay, and the fans scolded him.

All-team First Team: Curry, Harden, James, Anthony Davis, Pau Gasol.

Pau Gasol averaged 31.4 minutes per game, chipped in 17.7 points, 11.1 rebounds, 3 assists and 1.9 blocks while shooting 49.4% from the field, 41.2% from three-point range, and 1.1 three-pointers per game. He struggled at the bottom of the table last season, and this season he was reborn next door.

Second team: Chris Paul, Westbrook, Klay Thompson, Cousins, Gasol Jr.

Three teams: John Wall, Lillard, Wiggins, Griffin, Duncan.

At the age of 39, Duncan was still selected for the second defense and third team, averaging 13.9 points, 9.1 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks per game, and his performance exploded almost all the young people in the league, and he deserved to be the No. 21 rookie.

Griffin was gloomy, leaving the Clippers for only one season, he was almost nothing, and the Heat was swept out of the Wizards in the first round.

Looking at the praise received by Draymond and Gasol, Griffin realized that he had made the worst decision of his life, but unfortunately it was too late.
