Chapter 1254 200+ Clubs! Four Consecutive FMVPs!

When Tatum uttered these words, the entire New Orleans Arena and the entire city of New Orleans were already in a sea of ​​boiling water.

Four consecutive championships!

Official announcement!

They did it!

They became the second team to win four consecutive championships besides the Celtics in ancient times!

If you consider the current number of league teams and the development of the game, they are the first team to achieve this record!

In the 2015~2016 season, Holiday, Tang Tian, ​​Ariza, Davis, and Jokic were the starters, and Wendy, Bo Yang, Aminu, and Metta World Peace were replaced.

It was a revenge season for the Pelicans.

They were eliminated by the final champion Warriors in the Western Conference Finals last year, but they succeeded in revenge this season.

Afterwards, under the pressure of the league, he played 5 against 8 in the finals.

Tang Tian scored 62 points in the third quarter of the tiebreaker and won the first championship in team history.

That was also Ci Shiping's last season playing for the Pelicans, and he announced his retirement after winning the championship.

In the 2016~2017 season, the starters were Holiday, Tang Tian, ​​Ariza, Davis, Jokic, and the substitutes were Brogdon, Bojan, Joe Harris, Dior, and David West.

As the defending champion, the Pelicans have experienced a season in which the super teams in the Western Conference have gathered.

Durant joined the Warriors, Butler joined the Mavericks, and the Rockets, who are already the Big Three.

But the Pelicans defeated them all in the end, and when Tang Tian suffered an injury, they finally defeated the Cavaliers 4-1 for the second consecutive year and successfully defended their title!

That was also Tang Tian's first season in which he averaged a triple-double, which was considered by the fans to be his peak.

In the 2017~2018 season, Walker, Tang Tian, ​​Butler, Davis, and Dedmon were the starters, with Brogdon, Rose, Bojan, and Harrell as substitutes.

In the 80-win season, they formed hard-working brothers and crushed all super teams.

They scored an incredible 80 wins in the regular season and achieved three consecutive championships with 16-0 in the playoffs.

After completing three consecutive championships, veterans David West and Diaw retired one after another.

Now to the 2018~2019 season!

The starting lineup is Rogdon, Tang Tian, ​​Green, Davis, Gasol, with substitutes Alexander, Carter, Kuzma, Siakam, and Harrell.

This is the most difficult season for the Pelicans. Walker and Butler left, and the Pelicans only got veteran Green and a group of not-so-good role players.

Even Gasol Jr. in his twilight years did not join until the trade deadline.

But they still rank third in the West.

Tang Tian even reached the true peak of his career, averaging 37 points in a triple-double this season, 82 points in a single game, and 102 points in a single game!

Under unfavorable conditions, with Gasol Jr. and Davis injured one after another, they defeated the most popular Spurs and Lakers in the playoffs with a score of 4 to 2.

In the final finals, the Bucks won four consecutive championships by sweeping the undefeated Bucks in the previous playoffs!

Four consecutive championships, every season is a legend.

And in the fourth year of four consecutive championships, they wrote the most brilliant legend!

Now, the glory belongs to the Pelicans, and it also belongs to New Orleans!

Tatum transferred the championship trophy to Benson, who took a photo and handed it to Stevens and the Pelicans behind him.

The members of the Pelicans could no longer hold back, shouting, screaming and jumping with the trophy in their hands.

At this moment, they are the happiest group of people in the world.

Each of them will go down in history.

After the celebration, they began to take group photos. Ding Yanyuhang still had a basketball net hanging around his neck, which was very eye-catching.

After taking a group photo, they began to interview important members of the Pelicans.

In addition to thanking the team and fans, Benson also mentioned his deceased husband and former Pelicans owner Tom Benson.

"How I wish he could stay for a few more years, he will be proud of such a team."

Her words also moved the audience.

Tang Tian was personally invited by Benson with the whole team, but he passed away after witnessing the Pelicans' two consecutive championships.

For him, it is really a pity.

Stevens reviewed the team's experience over the past four years.

When the interview came to Tang Tian, ​​Tang Tian didn't say much, most of the content was to thank the fans and teammates.

But at the end of his speech, he mentioned the upcoming World Cup.

"For basketball fans, this year will be the happiest year. I will try my best to continue to dedicate wonderful games to the fans in the Basketball World Cup."

The global image ambassador for the 2019 Basketball World Cup has been decided, and it is a combination of two people.

One is Kobe, and the other is Tang Tian.

This is Tang Tian's ability to promote the World Cup.

After all, some of the previous publicity work, including the recording of promotional videos, was contributed by Kobe, and he didn't participate much because of the playoffs.

And this World Cup is held in China after all, he must have a brazen wave.

After he finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter.

Promoting the World Cup on the stage of the NBA Finals is really the only one with no semicolon.

But this effect is awesome.

The reporter then interviewed Gasol.

Following Tang Tian's trend, Gasol also mentioned the World Cup.

"I'm looking forward to achieving the double title of NBA and World Cup."

Gasol even publicly "declared war" on Tang Tian.

And Gasol is not the last one, Davis also said exactly the same thing as Gasol during the interview.

China, the United States, Spain.

This is a declaration of war on each other in advance!

This kind of rivalry really made the fans look forward to the World Cup even more.

The interview ended in such an atmosphere of anticipation, and the on-site staff also handed over the envelope containing the FMVP voting results to Tatum.

Regarding the candidate for FMVP, there is not much suspense this year.

Even because the Bucks had limited resistance to the Pelicans, the Pelicans scored more evenly.

Coupled with the fact that Davis missed the first two games, there is actually only one candidate for FMVP.

"It was Tang Tian who won the 2019 NBA Finals Bill Russell Cup, and he got all 11 votes."

Tatum immediately announced the unsuspecting result.

And he also told the results of the election by the way.

In 4 games, Tang Tian averaged 26.3 points, 5.8 rebounds and 7.1 assists per game.

In terms of statistics, compared to his regular season and even his performance in the previous playoffs, this data is very mediocre.

But if you look at his efficiency, you will have two completely different feelings.

In the four games of the finals, Tang Tian made 61% of his field goals, 51% of his three-pointers, and 93% of his free throws!

The combined hit rate of these three items is 205%!

In the past, the 180 club was talked about by fans.

Tang Tian did it in the regular season this year.

But in the Finals, he took the club up a notch.

200+ clubs!

This efficiency value is the highest in NBA history so far!

In other words, Tang Tian set a new record in this data!

Moreover, this is also the fourth consecutive year that he has won the FMVP!

In addition, he has five consecutive AMVPs before, and a high probability of four consecutive MVPs.

He's an MVP now!
