NBA: A collection of super busts

Chapter 17: NCAA Awards Announced! The Final Four is Full of Flair.

As is customary, Coach Crane does not allow any players to leave the hotel at this time. After flying from Minnesota to New Orleans, the entire team has maintained a routine of going between the training facility, the restaurant, and the hotel room. In the final days, Crane will not allow any accidents to happen.

It was at this time that the NCAA finally announced the various awards that had been pending for more than half a month.

Voting for the awards begins after the regular season ends and ends long ago. Every year, the awards are announced and presented before the final four begin.

Ye Feng always believed that the NCAA officials were doing this on purpose. By awarding the prizes at this time, as long as one of the final four players won an award, those who didn't would inevitably complain.

Some were unconvinced, some were smug, and some were exchanging harsh words, each trying to prove themselves...

Presenting the awards at this time can effectively ignite the debate surrounding the final four teams and intensify the rivalry between them!

This year, of course, is no different.

The All-Star First Team is led by TJ Ford, Dwyane Wade, David West, Josh Howard, and Nick Collison.

The second team is led by Jameer Nelson, Hollis Price, Cameron Anthony, Mike Sweetney, and Brian Cook.

The final third team was led by Hinrich, Chris Bosh, Jarvis Hayes, Marquese Daniels, and Steve Blake.

"Those people who voted are crazy! Why didn't they vote for you? You're better than everyone here!" Wade immediately expressed his indignation after seeing the All-NBA Team roster. "They don't understand basketball at all! They don't understand how important you are to the team, or how good you are!"

Ye Feng lay on his bed, not surprised that he hadn't been selected. "Dewayne, is it possible that I missed too many matches, so they couldn't vote for me?"

"Is there such a rule? Do you have to play a certain number of games to make the All-NBA Team?" Wade scratched his head, revealing his innocent side.

"Of course not, but the league definitely won't let this bastard like me get too many honors. And several of the coaches who voted have players I've beaten up. Those who haven't been beaten up are worried that I'll beat them up in the future. It would be a miracle if they voted for me."

Ye Feng was neither surprised nor angry about not being selected for the NCAA All-Star team. Let alone college leagues, even the NBA wouldn't give a thug who was suspended for a third of the season for fighting any chance to make the All-Star team.

Some things just shouldn't be publicized.

"But more importantly, I suggest you increase your reading speed." Ye Feng, completely unconcerned, decisively changed the subject: "Didn't you always think you could win the Wooden Award or the Smith Award?"

"What a coincidence, you didn't get any!"

"What?!" Wade cursed, "They voted for that freshman? Or Hinrich got it? Holy crap! It wasn't... TJ Ford? He swept all the awards for me? Did he send his own mother to the judging panel as a gift?"

"Mind your manners." Ye Feng rolled his eyes at Wade, shook his head helplessly, but he knew why Wade was so angry.

Because Wade played absolutely perfectly this season, leading his team to the Final Four for the first time in 25 years. His stats, impact, and results were all impeccable.

But in the end, he didn't win a single prize?

And instead of giving it to Anthony and Hinrich, who were recognized by Wade, it was given to Ford?

A player who can't shoot, is incredibly fast, and is difficult to defend when driving to the basket...

Thinking about this, Wade couldn't help but curse again: "Isn't that idiot just a completely weaker version of me? Why did he sweep all the awards while I got nothing?"

As Wade and Ye Feng said, TJ Ford from Texas was the clear winner in this selection! He won almost every award a college player could get.

This guy won the John Wooden Award, the Naismith Award, and the AP Player of the Year Award, while the Oscar Robinson Award was given to David West.

It's fair to say that Ford has almost achieved a grand slam!

But of course, the most important of all the awards is the Final Four MOP award. Winning that means you've dominated the NCAA that year, and it's the highest honor that every college player desires the most!

Wade was not convinced! He had played against Ford, and that guy was almost useless except for his speed. He was no match for him at all, but he still won so many awards.

"He better not make it to the finals!" Wade said through gritted teeth, "or I'll definitely teach her a lesson!"

Ye Feng and Wade were certainly not the only ones unhappy about Ford almost completing a Grand Slam.

At that moment, outside the hotel where Syracuse University was staying, a guy with cornrows and a "everyone in the world owes me $100" expression was talking to a reporter: "I understand those who voted for Ford, but I have to say they voted for the wrong person! I'm better than him, I deserve those awards more than him, and I also can't understand why I wasn't selected for the first team."

"I am the best this year!"

"Of course, the good news for me is that Ford wasn't eliminated. We'll face him in the semifinals, and I'll prove it. I'll prove that voting for him was a huge mistake, and that I'm the best one!"

"I only made the third team?" In another hotel, a white teenager also gave a disdainful interview: "Great choice, I can only say it's fantastic. It would be great to give all the awards to Ford."

"I only have one thought right now: Texas has to win! They absolutely have to make it to the finals! Then, I'll personally test just how good the Player of the Year really is!"

"These awards are well-deserved and rightfully mine. There's no problem with them going to me; I deserve them, and so do we." Outside a hotel, another young man, who looked somewhat thin but whose eyes shone with confidence, said, "If not to me, who else could they be given to?"

"I ranked second in the nation in assists, I was the South Division MVP, I was the team's leading scorer, assist leader, and steal leader, and I led Texas to the Final Four for the first time in history."

"So, why not me?"

"Ford better make it to the Finals!" After reading the newspaper, Wade strolled out of the hotel, only to be stopped by reporters who had been waiting for him. "I will teach him a lesson, and I will teach everyone a lesson."

"I'm the one who deserves the award the most!"
