Strong encounters, full of personal grievances, this set of duels has not yet begun, and it is already full of highlights.
But perhaps it was not enough to see such a point of view. On the second day after the Western Conference semifinals, a reporter interviewed Scarlett Johansson who attended the event.
"We all know about Kevin Durant saying he wants to drink your bath water, what do you think about this?"
This reporter is really courageous.
But Scarlett smiled happily after listening to it, and she didn't blush or feel disgusted.
It can be seen that he is quite open-minded in this area.
"Is he playing now?"
After Scarlett finished laughing, she turned around and asked the reporter.
"He's on a team that just made it to the conference semifinals, and if they win, they're going to the Finals."
The reporter was afraid that Scarlett would not understand the NBA, so he explained it a bit more.
"Oh, like this."
Scarlett nodded.
"If he can win the championship, I can think about what he said."
What Scarlett said next stunned the reporter.
What did he say?
Isn't this just drinking bath water!
Scarlett meant that Durant would drink the bath water after he won the championship? !
This news is a bit explosive!
Sure enough, after the news was released, Twitter went viral.
"Whoa, Kevin Durant, come out, you hear? You have a chance to drink the bathwater!"
"By the way, what does the bath water smell like?"
"It depends on what brand of shower gel Scarlett uses~(>▽<)"
"You guys are so naive, you really think you're drinking bath water! This is a hint that if Durant wins the championship, they can try dating!"
"It seems very reasonable. Durant is tall, rich, and a little handsome."
"This is definitely a good thing for the Thunder, Durant is definitely going to be bloody!"
"It turns out that Scarlett is a thunder honey!"
……
During the daily training of the Thunder, Durant was in good condition, and he kept humming in the locker room after training, and he was in a very good mood.
Westbrook was also very happy after seeing it. The two played together for four years. He already regarded Durant as his best brother.
Brother is happy and he is naturally happy too.
He has already thought about it, and when he goes back, he will try to contact Scarlett, and then give Durant a small gift.
In this way, when the Thunder really win the championship, Durant will really have a chance to be with Scarlett.
Because the Eastern Conference Finals are still fighting fiercely, in order to balance the time, the Western Conference Finals will also be postponed accordingly.
In the most extreme case, if there is a tie-break in the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Western Conference Finals will be held a week later.
The league also seized the opportunity and announced the results of each lineup for the regular season at this time.
Conventional awards, such as the best sixth man, best rookie and even MVP, are very important.
But the lineup is also a great affirmation of the players' performance.
The lineup includes the best team, the best defensive team, the best rookie team, and the corresponding second and third teams.
The first to be announced is the rookie lineup.
The rookie lineup has a first team and a second team.
Second Team: Isaiah Thomas, Marshan Brooks, Chandler Parsons, Derek Williams, Tristan Thompson.
A very important indicator for judging whether it is a draft year is the performance of non-lotter rookies in the league.
In this second-team lineup, Brooks is the No. 25 pick, Parsons is the No. 38 pick, and Thomas is the No. 60 pick.
Moreover, these three people have already started their respective teams in their rookie season, which shows that this year is a real draft year.
Including Williams and Thompson, they are already the team's real starters.
If this is the case for the second team, it is conceivable for the first team.
A lineup: Irving, Knight, Rubio, Tang Tian, Walker, Klay Thompson, Faried.
There is a rule for the best team. When the voting results have the same score, they will be included in the selection.
There was a tie in points this year, so there are seven players in the best team.
Among these seven people, the names of Owen, Walker, Tang Tian, and Thompson are impressively listed.
The hard-trained four brothers directly accounted for half of the best team, and more!
Apart from other things, this verifies what Tang Tian said at the beginning, hard training pays off!
Of course, this can also be said: if any player has improved significantly after changing teams, then they must have practiced hard in the summer.
ps: There are 3 more chapters.
Chapter 253 Good Things Continue (3/5)
After the announcement of the best rookie team, followed by the announcement of the best defensive team.
Like the All-Rookie Team, the All-Defensive Team also has a first team and a second team.
Best defensive team: Paul, Tony Allen, James, Ibaka, Howard.
This lineup is basically expected by the fans.
Although Paul has just suffered a double 58 tragedy, the team's tragedy cannot erase his personal outstanding performance.
He averaged 19.8 points, 9.1 assists and 2.5 steals per game in the regular season, among which the steal data ranked first in the league, and it was also his fourth time to win the steals title.
In the playoffs, his number of steals increased to 2.7 times, and the best defensive team is well-deserved.
It is worth mentioning that this is also the second time in his career that he has been selected for the first team.
Tony Allen's performance cannot be reflected by statistics, but his average of 1.8 steals and 0.6 assists per game is also good enough.
As the owner of the first skill drawn by Tang Tian's system, he was selected for the first team and reached a pinnacle of his career.
Needless to say, James, since 09, he has been scheduled to defend the small forward position every year.
There is no controversy about Ibaka's selection. As the league's season-block leader, there is no one who can compete with him at the power forward position.
However, the center position is somewhat unexpected. Chandler, who was elected as the best defensive player, was not selected for the first team, which is relatively rare.
But this looks more like a consolation prize given to "Warcraft" by reporters.
After all, he is also the All-Star vote king this year.
Although there were some surprises in the result for a while, it was actually not too big.
The second team that was announced at the same time shocked everyone.
Second team lineup: Rondo, Kobe, Tang Tian, Garnett, Chandler.
Tang Tian!
Tang Tian was selected to the league's best defensive second team!
This wave made Twitter, which had been calm just now, blow up again in an instant.
"Hoo hoo! This time the reporters finally opened their eyes and pricked up their ears!"
"This is the most correct choice, averaging 1.6 steals and 1.1 blocks per game, this should be selected for the best team!"
"Actually, I think Tang can even be selected for the first team. He is a swingman, and he can also be a shooting guard!"
"That's true, but the second team is enough. After all, Tang is still a rookie, and defense is not just about statistics."
"Haha, you really think too much, do you know how many people were selected as rookies before this?
Duncan, David Robinson, Olajuwon, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Bobby Jones, there are only five people in total, and even Jordan and Kobe have never done it.
This is not one in a million, it is a real one in a million, but it is quite rare to be selected for the second team. Don is already in the same position as Jordan and Kobe. "
"A file with Jordan Kobe! I like your description, you are a promising young man (づ￣3￣)づ╭?～"
……
As the president of the league, Stern always pays attention to the dynamics of fans' discussions.
Seeing the reaction of the fans now, I was relieved.
When selecting the best rookie before, he guessed that Irving would be elected, but he didn't expect such a disparity in the vote rate.
It seems that he overestimated the vision of the league's teams.
These guys, like Xiao Hua, are probably just looking at the small cake in the United States.
The reaction of the fans afterwards gave him a lot of pressure.
So this time he directly took the initiative to speak out at the alliance meeting, and this was the result of Tang Tian being selected for the second team.
But in fact, Tang Tian's performance is also worthy of a second team.
His cell phone vibrated, it was a text message from Xiao Hua.
That guy, complaining about the results of the second team again, saying that rookies shouldn't be selected for the defensive lineup.
Sometimes he is a little angry.
This Xiao Hua is fine in other aspects, but this vision, why is it always so short-sighted.
……
Tang Tian was also a little surprised when he received the news from the league. You must know that rookies are at a disadvantage in the selection of the best team.
It's not just about the data or performance, it's also why, as the fan said, only five rookies have been selected for the defensive team in the long history.
This was a pleasant surprise for him, and it was also a very good encouragement.
It seems that he did not make a mistake when he chose to take the 3D route.
The rookie lineup and the best defensive team are announced, and the last one announced, the heaviest one, is the best team.
The best team has first team, second team and third team.
For most league players, the best lineup is the greatest affirmation of their season, not to mention being selected, it is very lucky to be voted by reporters.
After all, the best lineup is different from rookie and defensive lineups. He does not have any criteria to filter, and what he looks at is the overall performance of the players throughout the season.
Best team: Paul, Kobe, Durant, James, Howard
Best Second Team: Westbrook, Parker, Love, Griffin, Bynum
Best three teams: Rondo, Wade, Anthony, Nowitzki, Chandler
In addition to the lineup, this time the voting results of other players were also announced.
Among them, Aldridge (55 points) and Marc Gasol (52 points) became the most regrettable people. You must know that Chandler was selected for the third team, and his score was only 60 points.
Except for the two most regrettable, many players scored in single digits, Ginobili 3 points, Bosh 2 points, Ibaka 2 points, David Lee 1 point, Cousins 1 point, Tang Tian 1 point.
These players all have one thing in common, they are the third masters of strong teams or the second masters or even big masters of weak teams.
This also shows that in the best team, the competition is extremely fierce.
But a name was messed up.
Tang Tian actually scored 1 point!
This time, another bomb was dropped directly on Twitter.
