Chapter 507 The Second Dpoy Trophy

Stern nodded with relief. Although the media is important, the most important thing is a global superstar with such great influence as Hammer. This is the foundation of the alliance.

If you can't see this, the league will not get the support of these superstars, the consequences will be very troublesome, and it will directly affect the fans' attitude towards the league.

And the fans are the true foundation of the league. Competing with these fans with other major sports leagues has always been his most important job, and there is no room for loss.

It is not easy for the league to develop from a small sports league to today, especially in China. How could the hundreds of millions of NBA fans in the past two years affect the interests of the league because of the unfairness of these media people?

He glanced at Xiao Guangtou, this young man is a little confused.

"Lars, this is unfair." Baldy Xiao said angrily.

"We're just looking for real fairness."

Lars Granik replied to Xiao Guang's first sentence, and then said to Stern: "Sir, I suggest that the scoring media personnel in the back, do you want to adjust the list?"

"It can be considered, you can make a plan." Stern smiled.

"Okay, sir, I'll do it right away." Lars Granik said excitedly.

In the past, his status in the company was inferior to that of Xiao Guangtou, but now, he is gradually catching up.

This afternoon, the league officially announced some honorary awards.

There is no suspense about the data kings of all kinds, and Li Ba once again monopolizes the honor of the three data kings.

Rookie of the Year, Emeka Okafor, played 15+10, which is worse than last year's Rookie of the Year, LeBron James.

Announced with the best rookie, there is also the best rookie lineup, among which the rookie Luol Deng, who was traded by the Suns, was selected for the rookie team.

The best sixth man, won by Ben Gordon, averaged 24.4 minutes per game, 15.1+2.6+2 data.

DPOY, obtained by Li Ba.

Li Ba was happy to receive this honor. As a defensive player, this is the highest honor.

In addition to the honors of the players, the league also announced the best coach of the season.

The Suns ranked first in the league, and Frank got this honor as he wished, which put his coaching career on the fast track.

With this honor, he will not be afraid of losing his job in the future.

After the announcement of these honors, the playoffs have also begun to enter the rhythm of the second round.

In the second round, the Suns will play against the Mavericks.

In terms of physical fitness, the sun has an absolute advantage in waiting for work at leisure.

In terms of strength, the Suns also have an advantage.

In terms of lineup, the Suns, with three All-Stars, still have an advantage.

Therefore, in this series, the media is generally optimistic that the Suns will advance to the Western Conference Finals.

The Suns were interviewed by the media the day before the game.

"Iron Hammer, against the Mavericks, will you have a sweeping record like in the first round?"

"If there's a chance, why not?"

"What do you think of the Mavericks' strength?"

"The Mavericks have to grab 7 in mosaics. I am not optimistic about their strength. I don't think they can pose a threat to us."

"Is there any possibility of carelessness?"

"No."

"Do you have anything to say about Yao's desire to leave Houston?"

"The owner of the Mosaic team is too stingy. He just wants to make money and doesn't want to invest. I support Yao to leave there."

"Have you discussed it with Yao?"

"Of course not. This is my opinion. At least Yao's opinion. I know he has not been interviewed yet. You can try to contact him."

"Kobe, teaming up with Yao, what do you think? You will not have any conflicts with him. He is a humble person, completely different from the Hammer. We must make a decision as soon as possible."

In Los Angeles, Kupchak is on the phone with Kobe.

"That's a nice big guy, get him here." Kobe's words sounded a little excited.

"OK, then I'm going to operate." Kupchak laughed.

That night, Li Ba comfortably took a bubble bath with his new girlfriend of this month, Li Ya.

Leah is a Japanese-American girl, petite and cute.

"Dirk, I have arranged for you. Two top Brazilian models were flown in yesterday. Come and enjoy."

"Damn it, Hammer, don't tempt me, I won't be fooled, this series, I want to win."

"Haha, German cowboy, after four games you should be feeding the cows."

Li Ba laughed, and suddenly pretended to be surprised: "Baby Liya, what are you doing up there? Come down!"

As he said that, he also squeezed the vitals on Liya's chest, causing the girl to scream.

"Damn it, you can't seduce me, Hammer, I said I want to win you." Nowitzki hung up the phone immediately after finishing speaking.

Li Ba laughed, suddenly froze, and shouted anxiously: "Yaya, I'm just kidding, come down, come down, you can't go up, be obedient, come down, if you are disobedient, I will wear iron pants for you..."

That night, the Knicks and the Celtics played in the second round of the Eastern Conference. In the end, the Knicks won the G1 game.

At the same time, in the second round of the Western Conference, the Spurs defeated the Sonics and won the G1 victory.

The next morning, Bill Duffy came to Phoenix, went to Li Ba's house, and brought him a message.

"They said you stole Da Ben's DPOY and went to interview Da Ben." Bill Duffy said.

"What does Big Ben say?" Li Ba laughed.

"He wasn't interviewed," Bill Duffy laughed.

"That guy has some opinions, but it's hard to say anything, because I'm better than him." Li Ba laughed.

In the evening, at the American West Arena, the second round of the Western Conference, the Suns vs. Mavericks, the G1 game of the series began.

The American West Arena is still full of stars.

In the absence of the Lakers, this place has attracted too many celebrities. On both sides of the front row, there are some handsome men and women who often appear on the front page of the media.

Tonight, the arena welcomes Stern. DPOY is the most important of the first batch of honors. He will present the DPOY trophy to Li Ba.

Mavericks starters: Dampier, Nowitzki, Josh Howard, Michael Finley, Jason Terry

Suns starters: Li Ba, Marion, Battier, Posey, Marbury.

Li Ba was the last one to start the game. When he entered the court, a huge howl of sound hit the sky and overwhelmed the sky. It became louder and louder, and he lost all his hearing. In an instant, his adrenaline surged wildly, pushing his emotions to the top. extreme.

At this moment, he didn't have any thoughts of control.

"Western Finals! Western Conference Finals! Western Conference Finals..."

Walking at the entrance of the passage, he raised his fist high and roared uncontrollably.

"Western Finals! Western Conference Finals! Western Conference Finals..."

The American West Arena boiled instantly, and the decibels rose step by step, rushing past peaks one after another.

"Oh, Hammer is still in the second round, and he is already looking forward to the Western Conference Finals!" Barkley screamed strangely.

"This guy!"

Next to the Suns bench, Dayao stood up, applauded, and sighed: "I really didn't pay attention to the Mavericks."

"The Hammers are already superstars."

Bill Duffy next to him shouted loudly in Dayao's ear.

Dayao was startled for a moment, but nodded quickly.

"Mr. Stern, it's a pleasure to see you again."

"Me too, boy, I hope you have a great time in the league."

Accompanied by Colangelo, Li Ba, like last year, accepted the award from Stern and won his second DPOY trophy.
