I am so Accurate

"Pippen."

James' answer surprised Sun Hao.

He can think of others giving away tickets. After all, it is normal for a group of big shots on the Trail Blazers to see James' talent.

But how could it be Pippen?

Pi Erye is the famous Zhan Hei!

I don't understand.

But things are in front of us, we can only believe.

The two chatted for a while about the game, and James and Sun Hao also said one thing.

He's 16 and ready to get a tattoo.

The tattoo culture in the United States is very popular, and there are many tattoo monsters in the NBA.

Fizer, who joined the league with Sun Hao last year, is a well-known tattoo expert.

Although James is a little younger, it is not surprising to have this idea.

"I'm going to get a chief tattoo."

The reason why James told Sun Hao about this is because the content of the tattoo he wanted was related to Sun Hao.

Sun Hao didn't expect it at all.

James, are you going to ask for your nickname back?

No, James is by no means that kind of person.

I guess I wanted to use this transitional nickname as an incentive to remind myself all the time.

Originally, this is actually nothing.

But last time Yi Jianlian told him that chief also means chief, Sun Hao felt a little embarrassed.

Especially Su Qun's article also used the duel between the European emperor and the African chieftain.

Tattoos can't be washed clean. If James finds out what it means in the future and gets it tattooed on his body again, he might hunt him down with an AK.

Free America...

"LeBron, I don't think that is a wise choice. After all, I believe that one day, you will have the nickname of Little Emperor."

Sun Hao said.

"Really?"

James looked a little excited.

At the All-Star Weekend, Sun Hao asked him to challenge and get that nickname.

Now Sun Hao says he is optimistic about him, which means that Sun Hao is sure of him!

Could it be that Sun Hao was really observing him secretly?

Sun Hao didn't know what James was thinking, so he gave James a suggestion.

"If you want to get a tattoo, I think there is a word that is very suitable for you, and you will definitely like it."

James is full of anticipation.

After Sun Hao said that word.

Sure enough, his face was full of joy.

And he was sure that Sun Hao was observing him secretly and really understood him.

In the locker room after the game, Mavs players celebrate in the locker room.

After they finished celebrating, there was news from the other side.

The Spurs fell in straight sets and knocked out the Suns.

The Suns had no chance at all.

The key is that Kidd played a terrible game, shooting 31.1% from the field and 23.5% from three-pointers in the entire series...

His contract expires this season. With his performance in the playoffs and the status and value of the team he needs now, he may have no place to play in the West.

Now, the Spurs have been waiting for a vacant position, just waiting to see who the Mavericks and the Trail Blazers can finally qualify.

The next game between the Mavericks and the Trail Blazers will be played in Portland, with a two-day break in between.

In the past two days, Portland fans tried their best to cheer for the team.

Although the next game is the match point for the Mavericks, because it is a 5-game 3-win system, as long as they win the next game, the two sides will enter the final tiebreaker.

They even asked Barkley to shut up on the forum.

This reaction is quite real.

After Sun Hao popularized tainted milk to reporters, the word spread like wildfire on the forums in the United States.

Many Portland fans even blamed Barkley's poisoned milk for the last fiasco.

Barkley was relatively speechless on the show, but he chose not to.

He is now a commentator, and there is no need to feud with fans in a city.

A day later, Game 4 between the Mavs and Trail Blazers continued at Portland's Moda Center.

The process of the game made the Portlanders feel desperate.

The Mavericks were obviously not as good as they were last night, but the Trail Blazers played really poorly.

No, to be more precise, it should be extremely smelly.

The most obvious point is that, except for Sabonis, everyone on the field wants to be the main offensive point, and rush shots appear frequently.

Whether to shoot or not is secondary. The main reason is that this style of play has accelerated the pace of the game, and the game has entered the rhythm that the Mavericks like.

The old Dunleavy's consecutive timeouts failed to change the situation on the court.

An obvious signal that he has lost control of this team.

In the end, the Jedi counterattack that the Portlanders expected did not appear. They lost to the Mavericks again by a big score of 74 to 93, and were eliminated by a big score of 1 to 3.

At the press conference after the game, Dunleavy Sr. also announced that he would resign as head coach of the Trail Blazers.

This result surprised everyone.

After all, in the eyes of most people, the core players of this team have not changed much. They played the tiebreaker with the Lakers last season.

Even if such a team does not perform as expected after the All-Star break, it is enough to play a Mavericks team with little experience in the playoffs.

But the fact is that there are too many backlogs of internal conflicts, and when the advantage is favorable like the previous two games, those problems cannot be seen.

However, as long as they enter a headwind disadvantageous situation, like the third game, all those contradictions will be brought out.

And when those contradictions are played out, the whole team will be finished.

After the game between the Mavericks and the Trail Blazers, except for the Knicks and Raptors who are going to tie the fifth, the series of other groups have ended.

In the East, after being defeated in the first game, the 76ers pulled three consecutive rounds and defeated the Pacers 3-1.

The Pacers were eliminated in the first round of last season's finals team, and the ending of the Trail Blazers can be said to be the same.

However, their failures are more due to lack of acceptance, and finding a head coach who is not suitable to be a head coach at all.

The 76ers' opponent in the second round has not yet been determined, and Iverson has to wait for the winner between the Raptors and the Knicks.

But the remaining three groups have been released.

The Bucks beat the Magic 3-1, McGrady was eliminated in the first round, but no one blamed him, because he played well enough alone.

Especially in the third game, he scored 42 points and 10 assists in a single game to help the team win, and his performance was very good.

For him, he just lost a first round.

The Bucks' opponent in the second round is the Hornets who swept the Heat.

The super team built by Pat Wright is just like what Barkley complained about.

However, many people can still see that this Hornets team is underestimated.

With a core of Mashburn, David Wesley, and Baron Davis, plus PJ Brown and Eldon Campbell, they have every chance of breaking out from the East.

In the west, the matchup between the Spurs and the Mavericks has been determined.

In the remaining two groups, the Lakers easily solved the Timberwolves 3-0, averaging 15+ points per game.

It seems that the net difference is not much, but a big part of it is that OK is playing.

Since Kobe turned into the Pennsylvania Magician, this Lakers team has given people a feeling of being so powerful that it can suffocate them.

"We are unstoppable."

O'Neill also made no secrets in front of the media.

If it were someone else or another team, many people would feel that they were setting a flag for themselves.

But O'Neal of the Lakers, no one thinks there's anything wrong with it.

The Lakers' opponent in the second round is the Kings.

Preston hit a whirlwind, 3 to 1 out of Utah Shuangsha, Adelman set off a new upsurge in the league.

The second round of competition will start in two days.

At this time, the league announced the ownership of the second batch of awards.

Best Defensive Player and Best Rookie.

The competition for the best defensive player this year can be described as extremely fierce.

Ben Wallace of the Pistons played the best season of his career, averaging 6.4 points, 13.2 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 2.3 blocks per game, which is simply a replica of Rodman.

Ratliff, the former 76ers block leader, averaged 12.4 points, 8.3 rebounds and 3.7 blocks per game.

Garnett averaged 22 points, 11.4 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 1.8 blocks per game.

The Spurs' twin towers, David Robinson and Tim Duncan, the former averaged 14.4 points, 8.6 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game, and the latter averaged 22.2 points, 12.2 rebounds, 1 steal and 2.3 blocks per game.

And, Mutombo.

Uncle Mu was sent to the 76ers on the trade deadline and helped the 76ers reach the top of the Eastern Conference. He also handed over 10 points, 13.5 rebounds and 2.7 blocks this season.

In the end, the votes were concentrated on Mutombo, Garnett and Duncan.

Uncle Mu finally overwhelmed others and was elected the best defensive player with nearly 40% of the votes.

The result of this selection is not too surprising, after all, the performance of the 76ers this season is perfect.

Detroit fans, however, took issue with Wallace's votes, which only got 5 percent.

It can only be said that the Pistons' record this season is not satisfactory, and Wallace is not famous enough.

The result of the best defensive player is controversial, but the best rookie is no suspense.

Sun Hao got 96% of the votes!

The remaining 4%, Mike Miller took 3%, Martin took 1%...

As for Mark Jackson, who had partnered with Sun Hao in the rookie competition before and performed well, he was not selected because he did not have enough matches.

This proportion of votes is the highest after Duncan, and it is higher than that of Carter.

Sun Hao's ability to fight is one aspect, and his competitors are really not enough to fight!

The results of this selection immediately attracted cheers from domestic fans on the forum.

"Who else!!"

"I just called Krause, the general manager of the Bulls, and his phone has been turned off."

"Klaus has been shrewd all his life, and even Jordan was scheming to death, but in the end he fell into a big stumble on our Sun Hao."

"Old Nelson is the best general manager!"

"Actually, we should be grateful to Klaus. If it weren't for him, Sun Hao wouldn't have met Old Nelson, and wouldn't have had so many performance opportunities!"

"Well, we love Barkley! We love Klaus too! (ω)"

"I'm really looking forward to Sun Hao's next appearance ceremony. The 2001 NBA All-Star, the 2001 Rookie of the Year, there are really not many rookies who use these two prefixes in their first year!"

"It's so cool to fly, the strongest No. 24 show!"

...

Just like the Rookie of the Month that Sun Hao received before, the season rewards can also be collected from the league or awarded on the spot.

Like Dikembe Mutombo, because the opponents of the 76ers in the next round have not yet been determined, he went to the New York headquarters to collect it himself.

Uncle Mu, whose official age is 35 years old, is the fourth best defensive player in his career, which makes him happy just thinking about it.

Sun Hao didn't go to New York, but he was only one day late in accepting the award.

In the last game of the regular season before, in order to avoid the Blazers in the first round, the Mavericks and the Spurs staged a game of mutual acting.

In the end, the Spurs performed even better and successfully grabbed a favorable position for themselves in the first round.

But Popovich counted all the tricks, but he didn't count that the Mavericks actually killed the Trail Blazers.

Now it's the second round, because of that game, the Mavericks have home court advantage!

Sure enough, nothing can only be looked at for a while, it has to be looked back!

"Sima Weiqi."

The new nickname given to Popovich by domestic fans on the forum quickly became popular.

The tricks are exhausted, the chess loses a move, Sima Zhongda, Popovich.

That's pretty rhyming.

And quite image.

The next night, the Mavericks sit at home, ushering in a contest with the Spurs in the second round.

Players from both sides warm up.

On one side is the second-best team in the West that swept the Suns and easily advanced, and on the other side is the second-best team in the West that killed the second-best team in the West last year.

Such a matchup is full of expectations.

However, before the start of the game, the best rookie award ceremony was held on the spot.

League president David Stern came to the scene and handed the best rookie trophy to Sun Hao.

"congratulations."

This is the second time Stern has faced Sun Hao face to face.

The last time was during the draft.

Compared with the last time, Stern looked at Sun Hao with visibly brighter eyes.

Last time he only saw the possibility from Sun Hao, but this time, that possibility has become a reality.

As Sun Hao's performance in the NBA is getting better and better, the door of the Chinese market has been quickly opened to the NBA.

This is why he privately encouraged teams to actively go to China to recruit players.

Sun Hao has already achieved success, and if Bao Qi is not complete, the next Chinese player will succeed again.

When there are more NBA Chinese teams and the market is fully opened, China will undoubtedly become the NBA's largest overseas market based on the number of fans.

Sun Hao took the trophy from Stern and thanked him.

Unlike the Rookie of the Month trophy that was received before, the Rookie of the Season trophy is a rectangular glass product with the silhouette of the logo male Jerry West printed on it.

The names of the winners are written on the wooden base.

"2000~2001 Rookie of the Year, Sun Hao, Dallas Mavericks."

Sun Hao put the trophy on the table aside, and started his acceptance speech after the cheers of the fans fell.

From his parents to the team management, from the coaching staff to his teammates, Sun Hao thanked everyone he could thank.

This speech has his personal style, but at the end of the speech, he said something that many people did not understand.

"Michael, I did it, it's up to you next."

This is a sentence that has no beginning and no end, and Sun Hao said it to the camera.

It felt as if he was speaking to someone who wasn't there.

And Michael?

This is the first reaction of people, isn't it the god of basketball, Black Jesus!

The bet between Sun Hao and Jordan was not made public, and all the fans couldn't figure out what it meant.

But thousands of miles away, in the suburbs of Chicago, Jordan, who was resting in the manor, sneezed violently.

The weather is a bit cold.
