   With the first round of the playoffs, several important awards for the 04-05 season have been released one after another.

   With the Suns’ fast-tracking whirlwind and the league’s first record, Nash's MVP vote was higher than the Cleveland Cavaliers' Shentong 20 votes, winning by a narrow margin.

Shentong’s voice is actually very high, but the Cavaliers performed well last season, and there are also players such as James, Big Z, Wagner, Miller, etc., so when it comes to the sense of surprise and surprise it brings to people, the Suns The team is undoubtedly better.

   In addition to the convincing record of the Suns' 62 wins, Nash's personal performance is not weak at all.

   averaged 15.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 11.5 assists, 50.2% field goal percentage, 43.1% three-point field goal percentage and 88.7% free throw percentage.

   11.5 assists is the league's top assists this season, and his shooting percentage has also reached 180 clubs!

   More importantly, under the leadership of Nash, several starters of the Suns all played the most exciting season of their careers.

  Nash is like a halo that increases the buff, injecting vitality into the Suns who have been on the edge of the Western Conference playoffs.

   Stoudemire averaged 26.0 points, 8.9 assists and 1.6 blocks per game and was promoted to the league's first-tier stars.

   Sean Marion also averaged a double-double of 19.4 points and 11.3 assists per game. In addition, he also had 2.0 steals and 1.5 blocks on the defensive end, making him an all-around "hacker" on both offense and defense.

   When Shentong learned that he was ranked behind Nash in the final regular season MVP selection, Shentong was not too surprised.

   First of all, in the last time and space, Nash was the MVP of the season.

After losing 3-4 through the Rockets and Mavericks series, Shentong understood a truth, that is, if you want to change your fate, even in parallel time and space, it is quite difficult to break the "fact" of another time and space. thing.

Like myself, even if he has the "basketball space", he is just joining the Nets in his second season, working hand in hand with Jason Kidd, Richard Jefferson, and Kenyon Martin to break The historical torrent of the last time and space won a championship.

   So, with the "experience" of Yao Ming and the Rockets this season, Shentong knows that any change is not so easy.

   De-Anthony won this honor, and his moustache was fluttering with joy.

   You know, after taking over the Suns from Frank Johnson last season, D'Antoni only brought the Suns to a 21-40 record.

   But De-Anthony's system also inspired Nash's potential.

   And Nash is also the most suitable organizer in the De-Anthony system.

  ......

   The best sixth man of the season was awarded to Ben Gordon of the Chicago Bulls.

   The Bulls have made great strides in their wins this season. If the Suns weren't for the amazing performance, the Bulls head coach Scott Skiles is very hopeful of getting the best coach.

   The improvement of the Bulls' record this season is inseparable from Gordon's contribution.

   Although he is the team's substitute player, but Gordon showed his big heart in his rookie season, and has repeatedly become the absolute core of the team at the end of the game and sent the winning blow.

   As a rookie on the team but the style of the game is old, averaging 15.5 points, 2.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game, and a 40.5% three-point shooting.

   Although he failed to win the best rookie, Gordon undoubtedly looks to have a very bright future.

  ......

  The winner of the most improved player award is the Clippers' Bobby Simmons.

   This guy who was abused by Shen Tong in the draft training camp finally got a new life in the fourth season of his career.

   He seems to have suddenly regained his senses, regaining the feeling of playing at Florida University.

   Points, rebounds, assists, steals, field goal percentage, and three-point field goal percentage are all career highs!

   Simmons, who had only 28.6% of three-point shooting in the previous three seasons, suddenly broke out from the three-point line this season, shooting 43.5% of the terrible shooting percentage throughout the season.

Averaged 16.4 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.4 steals. Simmons, who was in his contract year, failed to help the Clippers reach the playoffs, but it looks like he will get a very good contract extension this summer. contract.

  ......

   Although the Detroit Pistons were unexpectedly upset and lost to the Washington Wizards led by Arenas in the first round of the playoffs, the award for the best defensive player was awarded to "Big Ben" Ben Wallace.

   Wallace is still remarkable on the defensive end this season, averaging 9.7 points, 12.2 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.4 steals and 2.4 blocks per game. His spirit and defensive ability are indispensable assets of Detroit.

   For Wallace's re-election as the best defensive player, everyone said that this is well-deserved.

   In addition, the alliance has successively awarded various data king awards.

   Cleveland Cavaliers' Shentong, with an amazing performance of 34.7 points per game, won the scoring leader for the second consecutive year!

   Allen Iverson also played a scoring season, but his scene 30.7 points behind Shentong by 4 points.

   Although the Timberwolves failed to make the playoffs this season, Kevin Garnett won the rebounding champion for the second year in a row by averaging 13.5 rebounds per game.

   The assist king is Nash who averaged 11.5 assists per game.

   The candidate for the block king is amazing.

   Utah Jazz small forward Andre Kirilenko won the title of the season's block leader with an average of 3.2 blocks per game.

   He is also the first non-interior player to win the blocked shots since the statistic of blocking shots in NBA history. This is a new history.

  The steal is the Wizards' Larry Hughes.

   As one of the Wizards’ Three Musketeers, Hughes ranks second in the ranking of the best defensive players, just behind Ben Wallace, which proves his defensive skills.

   Shentong: Defense? Larry Hughes? Give me a break...

   Hughes averaged 2.9 steals per game, a record high in steals in the past decade.

   As for the league's best lineup and defensive lineup, the selection is still in progress and is expected to be announced later in the playoffs.

  ......

   On May 17, 2005, the second round of the playoffs started a few games first.

   Facing the menacing Boston Celtics led by Pierce, Shentong and James waited at home for work.

   In the first home game, the Cavaliers played neither hastily nor impatiently, and always controlled the rhythm of the game in their own hands.

When the Celtics offered Anthony Walker, Paul Pierce, Tony Allen, Ricky Davis and Gary Payton in the third quarter, the Cavaliers also changed teams immediately. , Sent a small lineup of Drew Gooden, LeBron James, Reggie Miller, Shentong, Dajuan Wagner.

   The knight saw a trick, but did not give the Celtics any chance.

   99-89, the Cavaliers beat the Celtics with 10 points at home and got a good start to the series.

   Shentong, who won the second scoring trophy in his career, scored 35 points in this game, which is a regular performance, in addition to 7 rebounds and 7 assists.

   James still plays the role of the second master, averaging 23 points per game, while also getting 10 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 4 blocks.

   Pierce is the Celtics' best-performing player. He scored 21 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals.

  ......

   In the second game, the Cavaliers are still invincible.

   97-75 another victory, a 2-0 lead.

   It seems that they will sweep their opponents again.

   Shentong scored 39 points in this game. Although Tony Allen tried his best on the defensive end, he could not stop Shentong's offense.

   In an interview after the game, Allen shook his head and said his thoughts when facing reporters' questions.

"He can't defend at all. I feel like he is playing like a **** wearing the No. 25 jersey every day. He has too many scoring methods, and there is no blind zone in offense. Sometimes you can't judge whether he wants his next goal. Breaking through will still shoot or pass the ball. What’s even more annoying is that when he wants to ensure a goal, he will hit you back and end the fight with backwards. Seriously, I can’t defend myself by myself. his."

   Perhaps after hearing Tony Allen's complaint, Doug Rivers made adjustments on the defensive end.

   Shentong encountered tremendous pressure on the defensive end.

  Even when he broke through to the inside, he encountered double blocks from Al Jefferson and Jeff LaFrenz.

   While on the perimeter, Gary Payton will help Tony Allen to double-team Shentong.

   In the third game, Shentong "only" scored 26 points in the away game. The team also lost 91-93 to the Boston Celtics back home.

   However, Shentong is like a spring with full elasticity. It will rebound with full force when it encounters a little pressure.

   In the fourth game, Shentong was fully fired, and while hitting 7 three-pointers from the outside, he broke through layups, leaned back, and pulled out all kinds of jumpers.

   This night, Boston was silent.

   Shentong scored 50 points and personally sent the Cavaliers back to Cleveland with a score of 3-1.

   In the fifth game, the Cavaliers did not continue the suspense of this round of the series.

   They beat their opponents 111-100 at home and kicked Boston out of the playoffs 4-1.

   With such a luxurious lineup, but only to win a victory on the Cavaliers, the pressure on Doug Rivers is evident.

   After the defeat, Rivers told the media that the team will make some changes.

   "Boston's history is glorious and enterprising. Only real men can play for this city. The soft guy is not worthy of standing on the court wearing a Celtic jersey!"

   The media generally believe that Rivers’s remarks are directed at the returning Antoine Walker.

   This guy almost all floated on the outside in the game against the Cavaliers, shooting crazy three-pointers.

   It looks like Walker is running out of time in Boston.

  ......

   On the second day after the Cavaliers eliminated the Celtics, the Miami Heat sent Arenas and the Wizards back home with the same score.

  In front of the powerful insider Big Mac O’Neal, all three musketeers, troikas, three horses, etc. are all scum.

   Arenas tried his best. He averaged 23 points, 6.2 rebounds and 7.4 assists per game in 5 games. He even surpassed the Heat's Wade, but for the big O'Neal, he couldn't do anything.

   Whether it is Haywood or Kwame Brown, they are all just younger brothers in front of O'Neill.

   O'Neal averaged 22.4 points, 12 rebounds, 3 assists and 2.4 blocks per game, leading the Heat to pass the second round easily and into the Eastern Conference Finals.

   In the finals, they will meet the Cavaliers led by Shentong and James.

   After the game, O'Neal reviewed the first two rounds of the series and looked forward to the next round.

  Obviously, O'Neill did not put the Pacers and Wizards in his eyes.

"We only played the seventh Pacers and the sixth Wizards in the first two rounds. Eliminating them is a very normal result for us who ranked second, but the opponents in the Eastern Conference Finals are the Cavaliers with Shentong and LeBron. The round series is the real challenge, but I am eager to challenge and we are ready."

  ......

  After the opponents in the Eastern Conference Finals were determined, the two teams participating in the Western Conference Finals also emerged.

   The Suns in the first half defeated the Mavericks 4-2. While Nash led the team to the Western Conference Finals, he also reported his revenge for being abandoned by the Mavericks.

   But the fast-tracking whirlwind seems to be more advantageous for the Suns.

   After reaching 2-2 in the first four games, the Suns went down two consecutive cities and defeated the Mavericks 4-2.

   After the sixth game, Nash and Nowitzki embraced each other deeply.

   Although playing for different teams, the friendship between the two has not been affected in any way.
