The Fifth Point Guard

The candidate for the best coach who has been bothering New Jersey people has finally been determined. After Byron Scott was selectively ignored last season, he finally justified himself by winning this season.

In fact, he did a great job last season. Who would have thought that the underwhelming team would become an upstart in the Eastern Conference.

This season, he not only used his record to slam the cheeks of those critics who were pessimistic about the Nets before the start of the game, but also led the team to the top of the East in the regular season and became the number one record in the league.

In the All-Star Game, the Eastern Star team he led also defeated the Western Star Team by 2 points, and in the arrangement of the final attack, Jordan completed a quasi-lore.

Scott deserves to be the best coach this time.

After all the personal bests were announced, the team bests for the 2002-03 season were also released one after another.

The first-team list of the best team:

Center: Shaquille O'Neal (Lakers);

Forwards: Tim Duncan (Spurs), Kevin Garnett (Timberwolves);

Guard: Shen Tong (Nets), Kobe Bryant (Lakers).

Second team list:

Center: Ben Wallace (Pistons);

Forwards: Dirk Nowitzki (Mavericks), Chris Webber (Kings);

Guards: Tracy McGrady (Magic), Jason Kidd (Nets).

Third team list:

Center: Jermaine O'Neal (Pacers);

Forwards: Jamal Mashburn (Hornets), Paul Pierce (Celtics);

Guards: Allen Iverson (76ers), Stephen Marbury (Suns).

Shen Tong was selected to the league's best team for the first time, and was directly selected for the first team. He and Kobe became one of the two players on the central back line of the first team.

Jason Kidd is in the second team.

Although Allen Iverson has a good personal record and team record, but look at the four players ahead of him, he can only stay in the third team.

The selection of the best defensive team.

First team:

Center: Ben Wallace (Pistons);

Forwards: Tim Duncan (Spurs), Kevin Garnett (Timberwolves);

Guards: Doug Christie (Kings), Kobe Bryant (Lakers).

Second team:

Center: Shaquille O'Neal (Lakers);

Forwards: Ron Artest (Pacers), Bruce Bowen (Spurs);

Guards: Jason Kidd (Nets), Eric Snow (76ers).

Kobe Bryant once again appeared on the first team list of the All-Defensive Team.

Kobe is the only defender who combines offense and defense.

This can also understand why Michael Jordan believed that Kobe was temporarily ahead when he announced the baton candidate.

Shentong is comparable to Kobe in scoring, but in terms of defense, Kobe is still ahead of Shentong.

In addition, Kidd of the Nets appeared on the list of the second team.

He was able to appear mainly because of the obvious advantages of his tall stature in point guard defense, and secondly, Kidd has a high ball quotient and can interfere and influence the opponent's offense through anticipation.

Unlike Kidd, Snow does not have the physical advantage of being strong and tall at the same position. His defense is mainly one word - entanglement.

He can defend like jellybeans and keep you uncomfortable all night, and he's also a player with a very high IQ.

As for the appearance of the newcomer Artest on the list, I believe no one will have any objections. After all, few people have harder ribs than Jordan.

The selection of the All-Rookie Team is different from other teams.

It does not differentiate between the player's position on the field.

Yao Ming and Stoudemire were undisputedly selected to the first team.

The remaining three players are Nene Hilario, Drew Gooden and Caron Butler.

This season's league has seen the phenomenon of outside players getting together and breaking out, which is very good for improving the viewing experience of the league, and with the NBA's overseas operations, the NBA's influence in the world has gradually expanded, and more and more fans have begun to Concerned about the NBA, more advertisers have also set their sights here.

NBA began to enter the golden age.

On April 20, 2003, the NBA02-03 season playoffs officially started.

A total of 5 games will be played simultaneously on the day.

The battle between the King and the Jazz started first.

Karl Malone and John Stockton, the old Utah duo, knew this might be their last swan song in the playoffs, so they played extra hard.

After the first quarter, the Jazz, who played on the road, turned their backs and ended the first quarter 25-19.

But in the second quarter, the Kings immediately cheered up and responded.

They shot 19-8 in a single quarter, limiting the Jazz to less than 10 points in the second quarter.

In the end, the Kings beat the Jazz 96-90 at home and got off to a good start.

Malone did not fall behind in the duel with the peak Webber, scoring a quasi-triple double of 25 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists.

Of course, Webber was also unbearably behind, contributing 27 points and 11 rebounds.

The result of the game between the Spurs and the Suns was beyond many people's expectations.

The Suns punched the old master to death.

Marbury, Marion, and Stoudemire collectively went crazy, scoring 26 points, 24 points, and 24 points respectively.

Stoudemire looked very excited when facing Duncan, with a newborn calf not afraid of tigers, successfully causing the Spurs to fall into chaos inside.

Duncan scored only 17 points.

In addition, Anfernee Hardaway at the end of his career also scored 11 points and 6 rebounds.

The collective eruption of the Suns allowed them to pass overtime in the away game and beat the Spurs 96-95 by one point.

After this game, Marbury, who is full of confidence, is already declaring the possibility of black eight!

The Mavericks didn't give the star-studded Trail Blazers any chance at home.

Although the Trail Blazers have Rasheed - Wallace, Scott - Pippen, Dell - Davis, Zach - Randolph, Arvidas - Sabonis and other insiders, but no one can stop Dirk Nowitzki tonight.

German Chariot scored 46 points alone at home, shot 60% of the shots, and made 4 of 5 three-pointers, almost without missing a shot.

The Mavericks also defeated the Trail Blazers 96-86 and won the first game of the playoffs.

In what is considered to be the closest game, the Celtics narrowly beat the Pacers 103-100 away.

The Boston Twins shine over Indiana.

Pierce scored 40 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists, showing his super dominance.

You know, the defensive player he faced was Ron Artest, who had just been selected to the All-Defensive Second Team.

Artest: This fight is not serious, I never jump, and I always play with my buttocks, which makes me feel like I have nowhere to focus

Antoine - Walker also contributed 22 points and 8 rebounds.

In the case of the outbreak of the Gemini, it is very difficult to prevent the Celtics from winning.

The last game that attracted attention was the Nets vs. Magic at home.

Before the game, Byron Scott made a defensive plan against McGrady.

As long as it can limit the scoring champion this season, the Magic is not a concern.

After all, without Grant Hill, one corner of the Magic has collapsed first.

Thank you Fudo Ruyue for your reward!
