Chapter 47 MVP of Rookie Tournament (Today's second update)

At the last moment of the game, the rookie team finally became less united.

It was mainly because of Kenyon Martin. Since he was stared down by Marion, he completely lost the chance to score in sports games, but he still scored 4 points by relying on free throws. In addition to the 19 points he scored before, he has scored 23 points, 11 rebounds and 1 assist in this game.

If the rookie team wins this game, he thinks he must be the best candidate for MVP... He originally thought so.

But when Wang Dalin got a triple-double and scored 18 points, Martin became restless.

23 points and 11 rebounds in a single game is impressive, but a triple-double in a single game is undoubtedly even better, especially Wang Dalin's game is quite good, and it is not impossible to score a triple-double with 20+ points.

As a result, Martin began to play a "moth" in the game, not only deliberately releasing water when defending, but also hitting the inside as long as he got the ball when attacking, regardless of how tightly Marion defended him.

Wang Dalin was the first to notice this, so he stopped passing the ball to this guy when he was in a high position.

House, Miller and Peterson gradually became aware of this situation, so everyone on the rookie team stopped passing the ball to Martin.

Look at your ugly face?
How dare you compete with us Darling-Wang for MVP?

For example, "I am very happy to receive this award. First of all, I would like to thank my father, mother, grandpa, grandma, uncle, third uncle, fourth uncle, aunt, uncle... and all my friends who love me! Of course, I can’t forget to thank CCTV, MTV, and I don’t know what TV is..."

Sure enough, when the host announced the MVP of the game, the name was shouted out amidst the tsunami-like shouts of the audience—"Darling-King!"

After the applause, Wang Dalin continued: "In addition to my teammates, I would also like to thank Coach Cheeks of our team. If you hadn't adjusted the defensive tactics at the critical moment, we would have been very difficult to withstand the attack of the second-year team in the final stage! Coach, thank you!"

"Finally..." Wang Dalin deliberately paused at this point, "I also want to thank my opponents!"

Why do you Martin compete with Darling Wang for this MVP?

He is the first player to hit a triple-double since the All-Star Rookie Tournament, and the only player under the age of 19 to hit a triple-double.

Of course, Wang Dalin couldn’t be so nonsensical. His acceptance speech was very serious: “I am very happy and honored to be awarded the MVP of this game! First of all, I must thank my teammates. Without your wonderful performance, we would not have been able to win this game, so this MVP is not awarded to me, but to all the brothers of our team!”

After getting the triple-double, Wang Dalin knew that he must have won the MVP.

That's right, he is Wang Dalin, and he will be 17 years old on the 19th of next month!
You know, even the great "Magician" Irvine Johnson was already 20 years old when he recorded his first triple-double in the NBA.

After the defensive strength increased, the rookie team worked together and finally withstood the counterattack of the sophomore team in the final stage and won the game.

And because Martin didn't work hard on the defensive end, the second-year team still succeeded in consecutive offenses inside, and the score gradually caught up.

Martin was replaced by Marcus Fizer. He is also a power forward with a height of 206 cm. He must be weaker than Martin, but at least he will not be undefensive like Martin.

……

After hearing this, Cheeks was in a good mood, with a fatherly smile on his face, and all the players of the rookie team once again gave Wang Dalin a wave of warm applause.

Whatever you think... we don't agree!

When you win an award, you naturally have to give your acceptance speech.

The rookie matchup was originally more confrontational than the All-Star game. In this game, the second-year team defended even harder in the second half. How easy is it to score and grab rebounds?

Would we have led by 13 points at halftime without Darling Wang devising a first-half plan?

Martin is just a power forward who relies on people to feed him. Once no one passes him the ball, he is completely useless on the offensive end. Even Marion's marking of him is not so tight.

Just you?

Soul pale!

Coach Cheeks waved his hand—"Substitution!"

In addition, Mike. Miller scored 22 points, Peterson 16 points, House 15 points, all performed very well.

This is a good player in the 21st century. Not only does he play well, but he also speaks so beautifully!

Miller, Jackson, House, Miles and other teammates standing aside all showed gratified smiles, and they all applauded.

Szczerbiak had the highest score on the sophomore team, scoring 26 points.Followed by Davis 22 points, Odom 17 points, Marion 16 points.

Check it out!

不过全场观众都知道MVP应该颁给谁，因为那个人全场比赛15投8中，其中三分球4投2中，外加罚球2罚2中，拿到了20分、13个篮板、11次助攻和2次盖帽。

Darling-Wang, we will always support you!

Wang Dalin walked into the venue, enjoyed the enthusiastic applause and screams from the audience, and then took the microphone from the host.

I don't care if you don't attack, if you don't defend...I can't bear it!
Coach Cheeks' move naturally won unanimous praise from all players on the rookie team, except Martin...

Would we have scored as many points without Darling Wang unselfishly passing the ball to us?
If there is no Darling-Wang desperately fighting for rebounds, and Darling-Wang not sparing no effort to defend again and again, can we withstand the counterattack of the second-year team in the second half?

The final score was 120:113, and the rookies won by 7 points.

For the rookie team, Martin scored 23 points, 11 rebounds and 1 assist. The data is still very good.

Although the triple-double in the All-Star rookie match cannot be compared with the regular season, but his triple-double is no less gold than the regular season.

Moreover, the teammates are cooperating for the first time, and it is conceivable how difficult it is to assist in double figures.

"Without you, our game would not be so perfect, and the audience friends would not be able to enjoy so many exciting scenes! So, I want to thank you, it is you who have made us, and you have made this wonderful game! Thank you!"

Originally, Cheeks was just here to go through the motions, but when he saw that Martin deliberately released water on defense in order to compete for the MVP, he couldn't bear it anymore.

He pointed at the players on the second-year team.

The players of the second-year team didn't look good at first. After all, who can be happy after losing?But after hearing Wang Dalin's words, their faces obviously looked better, and they generally smiled.

The 2001 All-Star Rookie Tournament came to a close with Wang Dalin's wonderful acceptance speech. This year's All-Star Weekend has just passed its first day, and there are still two days of wonderful activities waiting for the fans.

Although due to the long history, the All-Star Weekend has not set up a "skills challenge", but the "three-point contest" and "slam dunk contest" are still enough to attract the attention of fans.

What's more, there is an All-Star game!

But these have nothing to do with Wang Dalin, because after the game, he and Eddie House flew back to Miami that night.

On the plane, Dalin also used up the reward he just got. Since it is "can be designated to increase the ability value by 5 points", then there is no reason to hesitate... add three points!
