The duel on the field has already begun, and now all the Knicks players have put down their training and gathered around the sidelines, watching the one-on-one duel between the two.
They were also very curious about what new things Lian Dao would come up with this time.
I saw that Lian Dao received the trainer's serve with his back on the inside, and then pressed the back of his body against Cousins. The right arm is fully extended, and when it reaches the highest release point, the fingers are facing the basket to dial the ball.
"brush!"
Lian Dao scored the ball steadily, and Cousins looked at Lian Dao with a face full of disbelief. He knew this shooting action too well.
As an inside center, he often looks at the skills of some inside centers. As a legendary superstar, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is naturally the top priority for him to learn, and "Sky Hook" is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's famous stunt.
However, Cousins has never learned.
Seeing Lian Dao used this time, Cousins' jaw dropped in shock.
The melon-eating crowd on the sidelines also opened their mouths wide in surprise, their faces full of disbelief.
Rasheed Wallace stood up directly from the bench.
"What do I see, Skyhook!
Millsap's eyes widened in disbelief.
"I buy Karma, has Sickle evolved again? I may never catch up with Sickle!" Gallinari shook his head helplessly. He has always regarded Lian Dao as a role model and goal, but every time Lian Dao improves hit him.
"I think we should take another look!" Stoudemire's face was also full of disbelief, but he wanted to confirm whether the ball just now was luck or not.
But then Lian Dao hooked the ball with his back, and scored the ball smoothly again. Everyone knew that this was not a hallucination, nor was it luck.
The following Lian Dao actually made quite a few mistakes. After all, his proficiency is not enough, so the hit rate will be a bit low. The previous two goals are largely due to Lian Dao's good luck.
But this is enough to shock everyone, everyone understands that as long as Lian Dao keeps practicing, he will definitely be able to master this skill.
You know, this is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's signature "skyhook", the most difficult shot in the league to defend. Now the league can't find players to use the skyhook. It's not that they don't want to use it, but that many players don't have this talent. .
The hook is more difficult to grasp than ordinary shooting. For ordinary shooting, one hand controls the strength and the other hand controls the direction.
But the hook requires one hand to master these two points at the same time, so it is very difficult to master the hook.
In fact, many people have practiced Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's hook, but due to the extremely low hit rate, they basically gave up.
Of course, there is also the fact that the hook is a bit uglier than the pull-up and fade-away jump shots. This is one of the reasons why many players are unwilling to learn, but these are all secondary factors.
The important factor is talent. This talent is the grasp of the ball when hooking, just like the grasp of the ball for three-pointers.
And Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's sky hook is the most difficult representative of hooks. Since Kareem Abdul-Jabbar retired, the sky hook has been completely lost.
Lian Dao's charm is not inferior to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in the video, and it is full of lethality.
I believe that as long as Lian Dao shows this skill in the playoffs, he will definitely shock his opponents.
…
With the passage of time, the first round of the East and West playoffs has been completely over. In this year's playoffs, no team has reached the tiebreaker. Although the Western region is more anxious than the Eastern region, the game is at most sixth. field.
In the end, the Spurs still failed to escape the fate of being "black eight". The Grizzlies finally completed the counterattack on the next gram 4:2. The Spurs once again became the background board, but they are also used to it. But the Spurs are indispensable.
However, the Spurs belong to the spring, and the harder they are pressed, the harder they will play. This time Popovich has been so humiliated, I believe the Spurs will definitely seek changes in the future. The next time they fight, I believe the Spurs will not be like this. This time was so easy to deal with.
With the end of the first round, the divisional semi-finals are gradually approaching.
The game was played at Madison Square Garden.
In the Knicks' home court, tens of thousands of fans poured into the arena.
Today's home fans are extremely excited, because today is not only the first game of the semifinals between the Knicks and the Celtics, but also the awarding scene of Lian Dao's MVP trophy and the best head coach trophy of D'Antoni.
To this end, the Knicks' management held a press conference specifically at the beginning of the game.
Now that the NBA has not been taken over by Xiao Hua, there will naturally be no awards ceremony after the season.
All the regular season awards will be presented at a press conference on the day when the trophies are awarded, don't think about podiums or anything like that.
Of course, the Knicks management originally wanted to build a podium for Lian Dao. After all, it was the first time he won the NBA Most Valuable Player. It should be more grand, but Lian Dao felt that it was too embarrassing, so he didn't make a fuss manage.
Therefore, Lian Dao accepted the most important regular season award in his career in the media reception room of Madison Square Garden.
Although Lian Dao won the best rookie trophy last year, he also won the All-Star Game MVP trophy, and there are countless player of the month trophies.
But these honors are very different from the NBA's most valuable players. You must know that the players who can win the most valuable player award are the most dominant players in the regular season this season and the most powerful players. representative.
How many players have spent their entire lives without touching the highest honor that symbolizes a player's personal ability.
At the press conference, NBA officials handed the gold-plated "Maurice Podorov Cup" to Lian Dao.
Seeing his name engraved on the base of the trophy, Lian Dao felt extremely honored at this moment.
There are four lines of small characters written on the trophy base of the "NBA Most Valuable Player Award".
The first line, is the season: "2010-2011".
The second line is the name of the trophy: "NBA Most Valuable Player."
The third line is the name of Lian Dao: "sickle, Lian Dao", the Chinese and English name of Lian Dao, which is also the largest line in the four lines of characters, which is really eye-catching.
The fourth line is the team he played for: New York Knicks!
He missed the Most Valuable Player last year, and this year he finally got the trophy he was thinking of. Although the honor came a little later, it can better reflect that it is well deserved.
In his rookie season, Lian Dao averaged 31.9 points, 8.8 rebounds, 10.6 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.2 blocks per game, which directly exceeded James' personal data that year.
It's just a pity that the Knicks' record was behind the Cavaliers at the time, only third in the Eastern Conference, which led to Lian Dao's rookie season and the "NBA Most Valuable Player Award" missing.
But this year, Lian Dao improved again, leading the league with an average of 35.6 points, 8.9 rebounds and 11 assists per game, and led the Knicks to the league's first record.
Lian Dao has made significant progress in almost every statistic. In this case, Lian Dao's efficiency value is also off the charts. He is the second player to reach the "190 club" besides Steve Kerr.
“I am very happy to receive this highest honor, which symbolizes the personal ability of a player. Here I would like to thank my teammates and the coach. Without their support and help, I would not be able to reach the pinnacle of basketball players~www.mtlnovel .com~ I hope that I will continue to grow in the future, and I also look forward to the Knicks going further."
"At the same time, this honor also belongs to the fans who fight with me and support me all the time. Without your support and company, I would not grow so fast and be so strong. Thank you all the way, what I need to do now, Just keep working hard and live up to all your support!"
Lian Dao's speech was unscripted throughout. Donny Walsh originally wanted Lian Dao to prepare the speech, but Lian Dao had no clue.
So, at the press conference, Lian Dao improvised.
However, Lian Dao's speech was projected on the big screen at the scene to the fans of Madison Square Garden, which moved the fans of Lian Dao at the scene.
And when Lian Dao won the honor, he did not forget them, and some fans even shed tears with excitement.
At this moment, Lian Dao's many ordinary fans turned into real fans.
