Legendary Basketball Tycoon

Every year after the second round of the NBA's regular season playoffs, both players and fans are very excited.

The reason is because at this time, it is the time for NBA awards.

Every year when the NBA awards awards, it will cause very big controversy and setbacks.

Of course, this time is no exception. After all, the quality of rookies in the draft year of 1996 is comparable to that of Michael Jordan and Hakim Olajuwon in 1984.

And this is what caused the most controversy and twists and turns in the regular season selection this year.

So before the league has announced the final results of this year's NBA regular season, all rookies are uneasy.

Especially Alan Iverson and Kobe Bryant, who were killed during the regular season are really inextricably difficult to distinguish. Everyone does not know who the best rookie of this year is going to be. Family.

...

Not surprisingly, Stern looked at the excited media reporters in the audience, and he immediately laughed as he was about to announce the result.

Stern really wants to laugh, that's right, because the existence of these two people, Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant, has made this year's NBA attention more than before.

Let me tell you that. In the usual four major leagues in the United States, the NBA can only be ranked third in terms of influence attention, and there are many MLBs behind, but now it is only a little bit behind the MLB, this is it Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant brought them together. It can be said that no one in the United States knows the names of these two rookies, they are completely red and purple!

It has to be said that all of this is due to the Bruce. If there is no Bruce who is unconvincing to select Kobe Bryant in the draft and give him all the status in his rookie season, then if Kobe is the same as his past Bryant will eventually be selected by the Lakers, and what awaits Kobe Bryant is that he can only be a cold bench in the first two seasons, and now what is "East Cossiai" talking about!

Of course, Stern didn't know this kind of thing, Kobe Bryant agreed that he didn't know, and the others didn't know it. None of them knew that the one who changed everything was actually a kid who was born again!

The venue for the announcement of the results of the major NBA awards this year is the same as usual in New York.

The media reporters in the audience were very excited. Not only did they guess whether the rookie of the year was Allen Iverson or Kobe Bryant? !

In addition, other awards are also quite interesting.

Especially the key annual regular season MVP and regular season best team and annual best defensive team and other key awards.

And these key awards are often announced by the president of the league Stern at the end.

The nature of the Oscar awards is the same, and the awards are often left at the end.

So even if these media reporters want to know the answer earlier, it's useless. They can only sit here and wait honestly.

...

After announcing several unimportant awards, Stern’s first award announced was Rookie of the Year. There is no doubt that the top rookies in this batch of 96 are Allen Iverson and Kobe. Bryant, these two people, like Marcus Camby, Sharif Abdul Rahim, Stephen Marbury, Ray Allen, Kerry Kitters, Eric Dan The rookies such as Peel, Steve Nash, Jermaine O’Neal, Derek Fisher, Ben Wallace, Anthony Walker, etc. are slightly worse.

Of course, some of these people can still enter the rookie lineup.

(Don’t think that some people came out later, but now it’s because Bruce this butterfly incites too much, and it gives the above-mentioned people a lot of opportunities to play games, so you all know...)

"I declare that the NBA rookies of the 96-97 season are Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant!"

When Stern’s loud voice came from the station, the media reporters on the scene looked shocked!

Yes, it was really shocking. They didn't expect Stern to let Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant win the NBA Rookie of the Year award together.

You must know that the last time two rookies won the NBA Rookie of the Year award at the same time had to be traced back to Grant Hill and Jason Kidd who appeared in the 94-95 season.

Of course, Grant Hill and Jason Kidd won the NBA Rookie of the Year award at the same time, not the first pair of players in NBA history to win together.

In the 70-71 season, Dave Cowens and Geoff Petrie also won this award together, so this pair is the first pair in NBA history to win the NBA Rookie of the Year award together in their rookie season. .

Grant Hill and Jason Kidd are also the second pair, and the same Alan Iverson and Kobe Bryant are also the third pair, but because of this it is shocking.

You know that it has been 45 years since the NBA has this award, and there have been three pairs of two rookies receiving such awards at the same time. This is really rare.

But it can also be seen that the award Stern announced is the least controversial.

The statistics of the other rookies mentioned above are very good this season, but compared with Alan Iverson and Kobe Bryant, they are not even a bit worse.

Because Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant are the biggest losses in the league no matter who loses, they are good enough.

Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant both start with an average of 25+ rookies per game, which in the past has indeed been regarded as superb data.

There is no way you can find a rookie who can start averaging 25+ per game in the previous few seasons. It's not that you can't find it, but it's rare.

The media reporters at the scene also nodded, expressing their agreement with the result of the rookie of the year announced by the league. These two people really deserve their names.

They can't find a place to refute, so they can only wait for Stern to continue to announce other awards.

After the Rookie of the Year, the following is the rookie of the year lineup.

The Rookie of the Year lineup must have the first lineup and the second lineup announced together, just like the best defensive lineup of the regular season of the era. Both lineups are set up. Of course, the best lineup of the regular season of the era. Except, this product is the bottom of the three lineups.

"I announce that the second set of NBA Rookie of the 96-97 season is: Eric Dampier, Ben Wallace, Sharif Abdul Rahim, Kerry Kittles, Stephen Marbury."

"I announce the first set of NBA rookies in the 96-97 season: Marcus Camby, Antoine Walker, Ray Allen, Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson."

After Stern announced the award, it can be said that the biggest winner is the Seattle Supersonics, because they have Allen Iverson and Ben Wallace selected, and the others are all alone. A team.
