NBA: Starting with Jokic template

Chapter 234 Sweep, defend the title, FMVP!

The game officially begins.

Lin Chuan took the lead and succeeded in the fourth jump ball of this series.

Then he quickly ran to the front court and prepared to take position.

When he came to the inside and had a confrontation with Chandler, Lin Chuan felt something unusual about the opponent.

The force was noticeably softer.

I don't know if he wasn't paying attention or was distracted, but this gave him an opportunity.

He immediately pointed to the basket. Durant understood what he meant and threw the ball high into the air towards the basket.

"boom!"

Lin Chuan jumped high and slammed the basketball into the basket.

It was a rare and beautiful alley-oop.

But since it was the Knicks' home court, his top five plays did not cause any waves, and the scene still seemed a little quiet.

Lin Chuan glanced at Chandler, not understanding why the other party was so absent-minded at the beginning.

Behind him, Chandler couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

For him, the season is over.

In the last game, even though the league tried so hard to protect them, they were still beaten badly by the opponent at home.

The moment the game ended, he knew the season was over.

It's not just because of the big score of 0:3 and the huge gap in the team's strength.

The most important thing is that the team leader's sense of responsibility is far from enough.

When thoughts are in a mess, movements will naturally be slower.

The opponent scored an aerial relay goal in the first round.

Although he was used to being beaten by Lin Chuan, he still felt a little ashamed of himself for encountering this just over ten seconds into the game.

As a former champion player, he couldn't help but ignite some competitive spirit.

Maybe, they can't beat the Thunder.

But at least they can do their best to embarrass the other party within their capabilities.

Even if they win the championship, they can't seem so relaxed.

Lin Chuan only felt that the force against him suddenly became much stronger.

This also made him look at the other party differently.

Compared to Anthony, who looked a little depressed when dribbling just now, was almost blocked by Durant when shooting, and finally made a very crooked shot, Chandler looked quite brave now.

Lin Chuan received the ball again and started to back down Chandler.

After only two hits, Lin Chuan could feel from the transmission of force that the opponent's attention was far greater than in the first round.

It even blocked Lin Chuan's position when he wanted to turn around.

This forced him to look for an opportunity again.

Lin Chuan could only display his dreamy footwork under the basket.

Not only did he shake off Chandler, he also dodged Stoudemire who was helping in defense.

Then he scored two more points with a dunk.

The two consecutive dunks at the beginning of the game were not an offensive style that Lin Chuan was familiar with.

Chandler, his opponent, also noticed this.

While I was still wondering why this change happened, I heard Lin Chuan's words.

"Hey, during the timeout, cheer up your team, especially Anthony. I don't want to play against a team that can't even resist."

Chandler gave a wry smile.

It turns out that this tactic was intended to wake them up.

Right.

Compared to the opponents the Thunder encountered in the Western Conference Finals, the Spurs even pushed the Thunder into a desperate situation.

The resistance they put up was still too mediocre.

They even completely lost face for the entire Eastern region.

Think of this.

He trotted downfield.

He came to Anthony and whispered softly, encouraging him a few words and also conveying Lin Chuan's sarcasm.

Lin Chuan, who was defending under the basket, could see with his own eyes that Anthony's expression had changed.

Then, he saw the other person looking at him with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

next moment.

Anthony catches the ball.

In front of him, Durant was still talking trash to him.

But then, he did not waste his energy on this aspect, but suddenly dribbled the ball between his legs, and his whole rhythm changed completely.

After a few dribbles, he even made the MVP, who had long arms and legs and a large defensive area, lose his balance.

The next moment, he drove straight in.

He clasped the ball in both hands and strode into the penalty area.

interesting.

Lin Chuan laughed.

The man in front of him was obviously ready to challenge his defense.

This has never happened in the previous three games.

This time, it seems that the other party is really angry.

But this is what he wants!
The finals are worse than the regular season, that's too boring!

In the fourth game of the finals, facing a 0:3 deficit, Anthony finally dared to challenge Lin Chuan and challenge the opponent's strongest point.

Lin Chuan attacked like a tiger pouncing on its prey.

Anthony felt that everything in front of him suddenly became dark, and Lin Chuan's body covered the sky and the sun.

He couldn't even see the basket clearly.

Anthony gritted his teeth and twisted his body hard, trying to find the shooting point and get the basketball into the basket.

"Snapped!"

The next moment, a crisp sound pierced the sky.

The basketball was hit by Lin Chuan Yizhang and fell onto the wooden floor.

At the same time, Anthony also fell to the ground.

"You dare to show your sword to me, that's great, but it's too late."

Anthony fell to the ground and looked up, only to see Lin Chuan talking to him condescendingly.

yes……

Anthony, who was still angry and almost knocked Durant down, felt a little bitter in his heart.

I mustered up the courage too late.

If it had been earlier, and he had not chosen to retreat from the first game, perhaps he could have found the key to attacking Lin Chuan.

It's like the battle between the Spurs and the Thunder.

Even though Duncan's offense has declined significantly, he still had occasional highlights when facing Lin Chuan and was able to score two points from the opponent from time to time.

But if you don't challenge it until now, you have no other option but to get blocked.

Anthony's mood gradually became depressed.

"Come on!"

At this moment, a few cheers suddenly came from the sidelines.

Anthony looked towards the source of the sound and saw it was their team's most loyal fan, Spike Lee.

What followed was a long round of cheers.

Lin Chuan listened to the cheers for Anthony and curled his lips slightly.

It seems that these fans are still very loyal.

Following the voices of the fans, Anthony slowly stood up as if he had gained strength.

Facing Lin Chuan, he said with a fighting look on his face,

"Yes, maybe it's too late, but I have reasons to win this game. Even if I lose, I have to fight to the last drop of my blood!"

"Humph, self-righteous."

Lin Chuan spoke coldly, but he was excited inside.

As Anthony regained his fighting spirit, the competition on the court became more intense.

The cheers from the audience on the sidelines became louder and louder.

With their expectations for the team, they shouted their voices out loud and passed them on to the players.

Anthony scored 17 points in a single quarter with a series of breakthroughs and shots.

Even took the Knicks to a five-point lead.

Under his leadership, the other members of the Knicks team gradually woke up.

In the second quarter, it also became active.

JR and Stoudemire each scored 8 points.

In the second quarter, the Knicks once again scored 30 points in a single quarter.

However, the Thunder has always been a team that gets stronger with each battle.

In the second quarter, facing the increasingly powerful Knicks, the Thunder bounced back like a spring that had been pushed to its limit. Lin Chuan scored 18 points in the quarter, and Durant also scored 13 points.

The Thunder scored 35 points in the second quarter and tied the score at the end of the half!

Halftime score.

60: 60.

Anthony: 27 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal.

Lin Chuan: 25 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks.

Durant: 22 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist.

The fifteen minutes of halftime passed quickly.

The players had just recovered their heartbeats when they returned to the court again to continue their match.

"Hmm? Looking at the situation at the beginning of this game, I thought the Knicks would surrender, but I didn't expect them to be able to perform like this."

Silver touched his chin and said to Stern beside him.

"After all, he is a player who almost won the MVP. If he hadn't been unlucky and met James when he debuted, and now met Durant and Lin Chuan's Thunder team, he wouldn't have achieved just this much."

Stern was not surprised.

As the host of the 03 draft, Anthony's performance was in line with expectations. His previous career was disappointing.

"but……"

Stern's glasses flashed.
"That being said, they are destined to become stepping stones in this game..."

Xiao Hua followed his gaze.

At this time on the court, the third quarter has ended and the score is still not much different.

Although the Thunder increased their efforts, they only gained a three-point lead.

If JR or Anthony made a three-pointer, they could tie the game.

"Maybe the Knicks can win one more game and drag the game to Oklahoma City."

Stern smiled and shook his head.

"Just look at it."

The fourth quarter began.

Originally, the two teams were fighting back and forth.

But Lin Chuan was once again ready to completely destroy his opponent with his attack.

He took control of the ball from the moment he crossed half court.

One goal after another was scored.

On the defensive end, Lin Chuan stood inside and remotely controlled the positioning of his teammates.

Not only the inside, but also the outside defensive intensity suddenly increased a lot.

The Knicks suddenly fell into a five-minute scoring drought.

After that, the Thunder took a 15-point lead.

And kept it up till the end.

Anthony made a three-pointer with great effort.

The point difference narrowed to 12 points.

After watching the ball go in, Anthony couldn't help but smile bitterly.

There is only one minute left.

Powerless.

Time passes by second by second.

competition is over.

Lin Chuan put down the basketball in his hand, closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

The imagined cheering from the audience did not occur.

After all, it was an away win.

But after working so hard for so long, we finally won the championship.

"it's over!"

Lin Chuan slowly opened his eyes.

The sidelines were filled with streamers, announcing that the finals were over.

It also announced that the champion had been chosen.

After watching Durant and Anthony finish their chat and walk towards him, Lin Chuan also walked forward and exchanged a few words with them.

"Come again next season. I hope you can beat your opponents in the East and stand in front of me again."

"Are you so sure that you can make it to the finals for the third time in a row?"

"Of course, there is no rival for us in the West."

Hearing this, Anthony also smiled bitterly and patted Lin Chuan on the shoulder.

"See you next season and enjoy your championship moments."

After saying that, he left the court without looking back.

Most of the fans on the sidelines had also left.

The opposing team won on their home field.

Fans who love their team will only feel sad.

It’s better to leave early than to be bothered.

The game ended shortly.

The playing field was quickly cleaned up.

The stage is set for the champion.

The Thunder team members walked onto the stage.

Lin Chuan also made a bet with Durant, and they both believed that they were the FMVP.

Walking onto the stage, David Stern took the microphone.

He looked at them calmly and with blessing,
"This year's FMVP is - Lin Chuan!"

Durant congratulated him with a smile.

He wasn't surprised.

In the first three games, Lin Chuan's data was much better than his own, with only a few points lower.

However, after this game.

With Lin Chuan scoring 40+ points again.

At the last minute, he surpassed him and became the team's top scorer.

场均数据也来到了32.5分13.3篮板7.5助攻2.3抢断3盖帽。

All five statistics ranked first for both teams and first in history.

It is well deserved to receive the FMVP honor.

Brooks, the team's head coach, couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.

The disciple that he had discovered with his own hands had grown to this point.

Really fast.

In just one season, he almost completed the entire career journey of other players.

Having come to this point, as a mentor, he is also very emotional.

Russell, dressed in a suit, slowly walked onto the stage. He was still in good health. He reached out to pick up the trophy and handed it to the new FMVP.

"Finally we have earned some honor for our center position, boy. The last center to win this trophy was O'Neal 11 years ago."

"Thank you, senior."

Lin Chuan smiled and took his trophy from Russell.

"Take over our class, grow up, surpass us, and strive for the throne of the number one in history, kid, I believe in you."

During the handover, Russell winked at Lin Chuan and said something that surprised Lin Chuan.

But then he nodded and said slowly with a firm tone,
"I will try my best to do it, just wait and see."

The moment he received the FMVP trophy, Lin Chuan suddenly felt something heavy and cold in his hand.

Afterwards, he felt an unexpected feeling of emotion in his heart.

Perhaps it was because this was his first full season as a starter.

From the first game of the season to the last game of the finals.

82 regular season games and 19 playoff games.

A total of 101 games.

He played a total of 3790.3 minutes.

He had a full season.

c countless games.

Finally won the cup.

I successfully helped the Thunder to defend the title!

The next step is to win three consecutive championships and establish a dynasty!

Just now.

A mechanical sound that had not been heard for a long time suddenly appeared in Lin Chuan's ears.

"The mission has been completed and the rewards will be distributed soon!!!"
