Chapter 902 Playoff Situation
"Oh, boss!"
The new eagle king, Qiao Johnson, saw Li Ba coming in, and quickly stood up to say hello.
"Joe, you have done well this year." Li Ba smiled and hugged Johnson.
"Haha, it's okay."
Joe Johnson was selected as an All-Star for the first time, and he was really happy.
After greeting Marbury and Marion, Li Ba said to O'Neill, "Shaq, welcome back to the West."
O'Neill stared round his eyes and said, "I heard, Hammer boy, what rules did you make last year?"
Li Ba smiled and said, "That's right, I've made a rule."
"No, I'm older than you, so I have to set a rule." O'Neill said with a straight face.
Li Ba laughed and said, "You should stay where you are. You can't even handle Kobe, but you still want to handle the All-Star locker room. Who will convince you?"
O'Neill was so angry that he looked at Kobe.
Kobe turned his head and didn't respond.
Li Ba clapped his hands and shouted: "Okay, the rules of the game are the same this year, does anyone have any objections?"
After his words, the locker room was quiet, and no one objected.
Anthony, who was the only one who wanted to speak, looked around and found that they all supported Li Ba, and lowered his head again.
Here, everyone is the boss or core of the team. He is an all-star rookie and has no right to speak.
Li Ba smiled and said to O'Neal: "Look, Shaq, this is the will of democracy."
"Shit, this is your own democracy." O'Neill said angrily.
"Okay, this year's AMVP, there are two candidates, first, Yao, second, Nowitzki, you two decide for yourself."
Li Ba laughed.
Mai Di opened his mouth, wanting to say something to Li Ba, but closed it again.
He was not familiar with Li Ba, and had little communication on and off the court.
Dayao and Nowitzki looked at each other, and immediately gave in.
McGrady opened his mouth again, he really wanted this honor.
He feels that his physical condition is declining, and his back injury cannot be cured. If he is injured again next season, does not perform well, and cannot make the All-Star, this honor may never be won.
There are three MVPs in the league. Given the team's situation, the other two have no hope. This is the one he is most likely to get, because this MVP is basically determined by Li Ba. As long as Li Ba says a word, as long as the West wins, he will win. can get it.
Dayao noticed this former teammate and asked, "Gracey, what do you want to say?"
McGrady said with some embarrassment: "Well, can it, actually..."
"You want?" Li Ba asked directly.
"Yes."
Looking at Li Ba, Mai Di nodded and said.
Li Ba smiled, glanced at the others, and said nothing.
Seeing no hope, McGrady was a little sad.
At this time Dayao said: "Then I'll forget it."
What he considered was that leaving the Mosaic team at that time was considered a trick to McGrady, and this time it was compensation.
Li Ba glanced at him, shook his head secretly, looked at Nowitzki without speaking.
"I quit too."
Nowitzki is also an honest man, Yao said no, can he still compete with McGrady?What he actually wants to fight for is the championship, the most valuable player in the finals, not this.
"If you don't argue, then you can take it."
Li Ba didn't care if the parties were gone, and he immediately said to McGrady.
McGrady opened his mouth, give it to me?
More than two hours later, the West beat the East, and McGrady got his wish.
After the All-Star break, Li Ba returned to Phoenix with his family the next day.
It was the first time for Li Dacheng and Zhou Yuehe to visit their son's mansion, which was completely different from the Baylor Mansion in the capital. They were both very big anyway.
After settling down, Li Ba said: "Mom and Dad, don't rush to go back this time, play here in the United States first, or go to South America, there are still many interesting places."
The second elder has no objection anymore. After playing outside for a few months, as he has learned more, his concept has changed a lot.
After the All-Star break, the flames of the regular season continued.
Each team has its own rhythm, and the teams that hope to reach the playoffs are starting to make their final efforts. Bad teams like the Spurs, Supersonics, and Timberwolves are crazy about losing games. Teams like the Suns and Lakers For a strong team, try to ensure that the record does not fall behind while the main players take turns.
In the end, the Lakers did not choose to lose deliberately, but chased the Suns.
Because even if they don't touch the Suns in the second round, they will do the same in the Western Conference Finals, so it doesn't make much sense to deliberately avoid the Suns in the second round. What the Lakers want is not the chance of the Western Conference Finals, but the championship.
At the end of the game in February, the Suns lost one game this month, to the Bulls in Big Ben, and achieved a record of 47 wins and 11 losses. They still rank first in the Pacific Division, first in the Western Conference, and first in the league.
The Lakers caught up and ranked second in the West with 46 wins and 12 losses, followed by the Grizzlies and Mavericks, with very close winning percentages.
Another month passed, time entered April 2007, and the long regular season schedule came to an end.
On the 1st, the league announced the best player of the month in March, and Li Ba won this honor for the third time this season.
At the same time, he continued to top the list of major media and official MVP rankings.
In addition, his Warhammer generation, and the two five-pair special brand shoes released later, have been selling well all over the world for a month, with a combined sales of more than 150 million pairs and a sales value of 4 million US dollars.
In particular, the two special models are the best collectible models and are very popular. Although these two models are extremely expensive, they are still sold out.
Although it is said that it has been sold for a month, it has only been sold intermittently for half a month, because the stock is out of stock from time to time, and the output cannot be supplied.
On the night of the 1st, the Suns played against the Mavericks at home.
The Suns are currently 59 wins and 13 losses, first in the Pacific Division, first in the Western Conference, and first in the league.
The Lakers are second in the Western Conference, one and a half games behind the Suns.
The Grizzlies are third, half a game behind the Lakers.
The Mavericks are now fourth in the West, half a game behind the Grizzlies.
The Mavericks and Grizzlies belong to the Southwest Division, so at the end of the regular season, they are also chasing after the Grizzlies, hoping to surpass the Grizzlies and get the first place in the Southwest Division, otherwise they will fall behind the Grizzlies and the Lakers, and they will be ranked fifth .
Fifth vs. fourth, according to the current ranking, they will face the Lakers in the first round, and the outcome is unpredictable.
This season, the three divisions in the Western Conference, the Pacific and the Southwest Division are fighting to the death, and only the Northwest Division where the Nuggets are located is the easiest.
There is no top-four strong team in the Northwest Division. Only the Jazz is strong and can be the opponent of the Nuggets. The others are all bad teams.
Although the Nuggets are currently ranked fifth in the regular season, they will automatically enter the top three when it comes to the playoffs. They are the champions of the Northwest Division. Advantage, hope to enter the second round.
It's a pity that none of the four first-tier teams in the West chose to take the initiative to drop to sixth, and they are all very motivated.
