The NBA started with helping Iverson win the championship

Chapter 129 Sharing the Best Rookie
In fact, the data of O'Neal's rookie season is completely capable for a while now.

It's just that he happened to be in the peak period of Olajuwon, Ewing and the general at the time, so he was not selected for the best team.

"plum!"

"Congratulations, you are the tenth player selected to the All-NBA Team as a rookie."

"According to me, Li should be selected for the first team. Can Nowitzki and James really be better than Li Xun?"

"Three formations are actually not bad."

The generals of the Pistons congratulated Li Xun one after another.

Li Xun smiled wryly, he felt a little sorry for his sister-in-law.

Apart from the All-Star, Rookie of the Year and First Team Rookies, Jiasao currently has no honors in her hands.

Under normal circumstances, my sister-in-law finally made it to the third team this year.

As a result, with Li Xun's rise now, his three formations were snatched away by Li Xun.

Li Xun is full of respect for his sister-in-law, and this player is really benevolent.

After reading the best team, the next is the best defensive team.

There are two defensive lineups, and Li Xun was selected to the best defensive second team this time.

Artest, Duncan, Rondo, and Wade were selected to the second team at the same time as him.

The position division of the defensive lineup is not as strict as the best team. This year's second team has three forwards.

This time Li Xun is grabbing Battier's qualification for the defensive second team.

Li Xun averaged 3.1 blocks per game. Even if he didn't count the quadruple-double in the playoffs, he had two blocks in double figures in the regular season.

Maybe advanced defensive data, Li Xun will not be very good.

But just like Camby's DPOY back then, if there are enough block data, it can also add a lot of points.

If it weren't for too few games, Li Xun would definitely squeeze out James or Garnett and become this year's defensive forward.

"What? Li Xun is flying!"

"One for the best third team and one for the defensive second team. He has played more than 20 games, and he has gained a lot."

"I can guarantee that next season Li Xun will definitely be in the first team."

"It's up to you to say, if Li Xun didn't have too few games this year, he would be able to double this year."

A crowd of fans discussed heatedly.

I originally thought that Li Xun would miss a lot of honors because of too few matches.

Unexpectedly, the judges were so awesome and voted so many for Li Xun.

In fact, Li Xun is also lucky, because after 2013, the selection of the best team is also the same as the top five data kings.

It is necessary to meet 70% of the games to be eligible to participate in the selection.

Next came the selection of the best rookie team, and Li Xun finally got a team.

Rookie of the Year.

He was selected at the same time as Rose, Westbrook, Daluo, and OJ Mayo.

This time, Li Xun grabbed Beasley's rookie first team qualification.

The number of rookies in the second team is a bit too much, the most in previous years, the number of second team is six people.

Seven were directly selected this year!

In addition to Beasley and Love, Li Xun also heard the name of Marc Gasol on the list.

As the younger brother of my sister-in-law, he is actually a rookie in 07.

It's just that he didn't land in the NBA in 07 and didn't really play until this season, so he was counted as a rookie in 08.

Looking at it this way, the 08 rookie is really a bit strong.

Now that there is one more Li Xun, I am afraid that the quality of rookies in 08 is no worse than in 03.

Li Xun directly won the first, second and third teams. This is also the first player in NBA history to win the first, second and third teams in the same season.

After the end of the best rookie lineup, it went directly to the selection of the best rookie.

This is an honor that Li Xun is most concerned about.

The best team, defensive lineup, etc., will have more chances in the future.

And the best rookie can only be won this year.

"I declare that the player who won the Rookie of the Year award for the 2008-2009 season is..."

"Derrick Rose, Chicago Bulls!"

Li Xun's heart skipped a beat, was it still taken by Ross?
It's not unacceptable, Rose's life is too short-lived, let him win ROY, Li Xun is completely acceptable.

"With Li Xun of the Detroit Pistons!"

Stern took a breath, causing Li Xun to roll his eyes.

Did this old guy do it on purpose?

Hearing that this year's rookie of the year was won by two people, the fans were eye-opening.

The best rookie can be regarded as the rookie regular season MVP.

From ancient times to the present, there has never been a precedent for the regular season MVP to be selected side by side.

The same is true for Rookie of the Year, there has never been a situation where two people have been selected at the same time.

"This year's Rookie of the Year is quite special."

"Derrick, undoubtedly one of the best rookies in recent years, led the Bulls to the playoffs."

"He is absolutely qualified to win the best rookie."

"And Li Xun's situation is special, because there are too few games, it is very unfair for Derek to let him enjoy the best rookie."

"So in the end the selection committee decided that the two best rookies of this year were tied for selection."

On TV, Stern explained why this unprecedented situation occurred.

Li Xun smiled happily. This was undoubtedly the scene he most wanted to see. He made a profit, and Ross didn't lose.

The next Sixth Man of the Year was taken away by Terry of the Mavericks.

The Most Improved Award of the Year was won by Granger, the head of the Pacers.

As the awards were announced one after another, the two honors with the highest gold content in the regular season came to the finale.

Defensive Player of the Year first.

Howard successfully won this award, and his defensive data and advanced defensive data this year are indeed well deserved.

However, Li Xun also got a good rate of votes in the DPOY selection.

Howard received 50.65% of the votes and Li Xun received 13.83%.

It seems that the gap is very large, but in fact Li Xun is already No.2 in the vote list.

In other words, in the eyes of these American and Canadian judges, Li Xun is the second best defensive player this year.

Now comes the problem.

Li Xun's defensive lineup is the second team.

At least James and Garnett, who were in the same position as him in the previous round, had better defense than him.

But in the DPOY selection, Li Xun was able to overwhelm James and Garnett.

Seems like it doesn't make sense at all.

In fact, Li Xun's behavior is considered good, and there are even more unreasonable ones.

For example, the future Marc Gasol obviously won the DPOY, but failed to be selected for the defensive team.

The key is that this kind of thing didn't happen once or twice.

The reason is that there are two groups of people who select the defensive lineup and DPOY.

Defensive lineups are selected by coaches and assistants.

The DPOY is selected by the media.

Coaches are of course more professional than the media, and they choose defensive lineups more from advanced data.

The media is more about impressions, and Li Xun has a lot of blocks. If it weren't for the number of games, he might be able to beat Howard to win DPOY.

Like this year, Howard's 50% to the second-ranked Li Xun's 13% vote rate, looking at the disparity, is actually a relatively normal gap.

Almost every year's DPOY selection generally has such a vote rate.

The only thing that is special is the selection in 02, when Daben won 96.67% of the votes.

This is also the only DPOY in NBA history with a vote rate of more than 80%, and the gold content can be imagined.
