Chapter 326 Trustworthy

Assistants, chefs, and drivers, drivers can be combined with bodyguards.

Of course, Wang Hao doesn't need to worry about these matters, just leave it to Jeff Schwartz to arrange.

Early the next morning, all kinds of news spread, and the media reports were all related to Wang Hao.

Even the upcoming second game between the Spurs and the Lakers didn't attract much attention.

Everyone is talking about Wang Hao, talking about his MVP.

The first foreign regular season MVP in NBA history is indeed worth discussing.

Moreover, NBA officials are now promoting globalization and exploring the global market, and they will not miss this opportunity.

With the NBA fueling the flames, it is naturally very lively.

On May 5, after a short one-day break, Game 7 between the Kings and the Sonics began.

It's just that, before the game, there is one more thing to do, and that is to present awards on the spot.

On May 5th, some simple decorations were carried out inside the key arena to welcome the MVP awards.

Although there are still Starbucks advertisements everywhere, but if you can prepare it specially, you can already see Howard Schultz's intentions.

Before the game, during the warm-up, Wang Hao exercised a little too much, and he was not as relaxed and freehand as before.

Pure excitement!

Well, this is the regular season MVP after all!

Although he knew the result a long time ago, he was still very excited when he could actually win the award.

"Next, it will be an important moment. Let us invite NBA Commissioner David Stern!"

As the host's voice sounded, David Stern walked out slowly.

Behind him, there is a dedicated staff member, holding that eye-catching trophy.

Not only Wang Hao, but also the Supersonic players standing behind him were in a similar mood.

And further afield, there are Kings players.

It wasn't him who won the award, nor his teammates who won the award, so they naturally wouldn't join in the fun.

The players of the Kings deliberately stood far away, concentrated on their bench positions, and pretended to have nothing to do with them.

However, with the appearance of David Stern, the players of the Kings also looked at the trophy unconsciously.

There was also a hint of envy in his eyes.

This is the MVP award, the most valuable player, as a professional player, who can not envy?

Because there is still a game going on, David Stern didn't play tricks and said directly into the microphone.

"In the 2002-2003 season, the most valuable player in the NBA regular season was Wang Hao of the Seattle Supersonics!"

After all, he had already received the MVP trophy from the staff and handed it to Wang Hao.

"Congratulations, Wang, our new MVP."

"Thank you, David!"

Wang Hao received the MVP trophy from David Stern and held it high.

The teammates around him applauded heartily, and the fans at the scene also stood up and applauded him.

"MVP, MVP..."

Without the guidance of the host, the sound of mountains roaring and tsunami constantly surrounded the arena.

As the cheers kept rising, the blood in Wang Hao's body seemed to be really boiling.

For a moment, he really had the urge to have one person, one city, and he was really willing to dedicate everything to this team.

Fortunately, this feeling was abruptly cut off by him.

He doesn't mind sticking to one person, one city, but the premise is that this team is worthy of him.

If the team isn't worth it, he won't cling to it.

You only saw the perfection of Kobe and Duncan, one man, one city, why didn't you see Wade being kicked out?

Again, the NBA is a business.

The Lakers are willing to give Kobe the treatment of one person, one city, not because of their conscience, but because it is profitable.

Of course, for Kobe, the respect for basketball must surpass that of the Heat and Pat Riley.

Feeling the atmosphere of the scene, to be honest, Wang Hao can't wait to play the game.

Speaking of the awards ceremony, I have to talk about the changes in the future.

In the future, under the reform of the joke, the NBA canceled the on-site awards and made an awards ceremony.

To be honest, Wang Hao was very disdainful!

You fucking play sports, not Hollywood, what's the point?

More importantly, the ceremony decouples players from fans.

At this moment, amidst the cheers and shouts of tens of thousands of his own fans, the feeling of receiving the trophy is absolutely beyond imagination.

Awards ceremony?

Many fans will never see their favorite players lift the trophy in front of them.

I have to say, this is definitely a pity.

The special awards ceremony, with live broadcast and advertisements, did bring more benefits.

Unfortunately, not every fan can participate in it.

The NBA is a business, but sometimes, it's not just a business.

"Di!"

With the whistle of the referee, the game officially began.

On a rare occasion, PJ Brown jumped on the ball from Divac's head, giving the Sonics a chance to go first.

Perhaps because of winning the award, Wang Hao was very excited. As soon as the game started, he dominated the team's offense.

Facing Christie, Wang Hao didn't think too much, and went directly to the right to break through.

Christie still shoulders a heavy responsibility today, he wants to limit Wang Hao's attack as much as possible.

Seeing that Wang Hao made a move, he naturally didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly followed to prevent Wang Hao from breaking through directly.

However, at this moment, Wang Hao, who was traveling at high speed, suddenly slowed down.

After the basketball bounced off the ground, he returned to his hand, and using the high-speed rotation, Wang Hao actually had a movement to stop the ball.

At this time, Wang Hao's left hand suddenly retracted, as if he was about to join the ball.

You know, at this moment, he is stepping outside the three-point line.

Since the beginning of this season, it has been difficult to find open opportunities because the opponents have defended Wang Hao's three-pointers very hard.

It is often necessary for Wang Hao to create opportunities by himself, and then take a three-pointer step back, which is already another unique skill of his.

Christie didn't dare to agree. After withdrawing her focus, she was about to jump up and block Wang Hao's shot.

However, at this moment, Wang Hao, who seemed to be about to join the ball, suddenly started again.

This is a Buddha action!

Wang Hao is not the first player to do Buddha worship moves. In fact, there are more such moves on street basketball courts.

It's just that Wang Hao is definitely one of the first people to do this in the NBA.

Sure enough, because Christie had already made a block action, she could only watch Wang Hao break through.

Seeing this scene, the fans at the scene burst into exclamation again, which is really wonderful.

But, it's not over yet!

Wang Hao got rid of Christie and went all the way to the inside. The inside of the Kings was also empty.

Don't think that it's just the Kings who can empty the Sonics' inside line, resulting in an empty inside defense.

Supersonic can do it too.

Lewis was very straightforward, pulling directly outside the three-point line on one side, and Chris Webber didn't dare to guard against it.

Facing the inside line defended by only one person, Wang Hao was not polite, and directly chose to fight hard.

Naturally, it is impossible for Divac to watch someone swagger over his head, and he wants to guard his basket.

It's a pity that Divac realized that he was thinking too much when facing Wang Hao who was leaping high.

In order to prevent Wang Hao, he stretched out his left hand and pushed Wang Hao, but unfortunately, it was still not enough.

I saw Wang Hao catching the ball with one hand, and after Divac landed, he slammed it hard into the basket.

"boom!"

However, after the dunk, Wang Hao also fell off the field because of Divac's push.

Sitting on his buttocks and sliding on the ground, Wang Hao didn't have time to care about other things, so he quickly raised his arms and made a movement to show his muscles.

Buttoned, and Divac was buttoned.

As soon as today's game started, Wang Hao showed a very strong desire to attack and a bloodthirsty attitude.

And Verati Divac, who was dunked tragically, became the first background board today.

Well, the first background board should be Christie.

Don't even think about it, this is definitely a top five goal, and it is destined to be played continuously in the next week.

This is definitely not what Christie Hedivac wants to see.

Before it was over, before Wang Hao landed, the referee's whistle sounded at the same time.

Right under the nose of the referee, such a clear foul action is naturally impossible to ignore.

Steadily added penalty hits, why did Wang Hao start a good game for the Supersonics.

However, things are not that simple!

It was the Kings' turn to attack, and as expected, in this game, the Kings changed their tactics.

Divac and Chris Webber both missed the high post and squeezed inside.

The fact is also the same. Compared with the Supersonics, the Kings still have an advantage inside.

Everyone pulls apart and Chris Webber singles.

After getting the ball, Chris Webber first observed the position of the Sonics, but tried to force Lewis.

Gary Payton reacted quickly, feinted a shot, and made a gesture to help defend.

Chris Webber really shuddered and returned the ball to Mike Bibby, while Gary Payton quickly returned to defense.

However, at the same time that Gary Payton returned to the defense, Mike Bibby had given the ball to Chris Webber again.

A very clear fit inside and out.

This means that it is a wonderful thing to have a point guard with a clear mind in the game.

Chris Webber got the ball, dribbled the ball one step, directly pushed Lewis away, and made a mid-range jumper.

3:2

Not just this one round, but in the next game, the Kings did it all the time.

They even gave up the gorgeous offense to a certain extent, and gave up the fast-paced offensive and defensive transition.

I have to say, the effect is very good.

In the Sonics' defensive system, Rashard Lewis is indeed a weakness.

It's just that players who can beat him hard often don't have many good ways to defend him.

Lewis can always float outside the three-point line. Traditional inside players are really not used to defending him.

Even if there is someone who can defend three-pointers, if you follow him, it is equivalent to sacrificing interior defense.

It's just that the Kings' inside defense is just like that, with one Divac, it's enough.

In this way, Chris Webber is fully able to watch Lewis.

Being breached when defending, and being looked at when attacking, today's Supersonic No. [-] position has completely become a breakthrough.

Relying on this breakthrough, the Kings abruptly bit the Supersonics in terms of score.

It's not that Paul Westphal didn't think of solving the problem, such as replacing Lewis.

Ewing and PJ Brown, or Brandon Haywood and PJ Brown's inside combination.

Unfortunately, the effect is average.

Solved the problem of the fourth position, but correspondingly, the supersonic fast attack and defense conversion efficiency was greatly reduced.

From the beginning of the first quarter, the game was very anxious, and it continued until the last 2 minutes.

With only 1 minute and 48 seconds left in the game, the score of the two teams was 88:86, with the Sonics leading by two points.

The game lasted less than 2 minutes, and the scores of the two teams did not exceed 90 points.

It can be seen that today's game is very anxious, both sides are working hard on defense, and the rhythm is much slower.

Kings possession, Mike Bibby dribbles half court.

In order to prevent mistakes and omissions in the fourth position, Lewis was directly placed in the third position, facing Peja.

The two are similar in height and style of play, which is quite suitable.

Chris Webber still wants to play singles, but facing PJ Brown, the chance is not good, he can only pass the ball.

No way, Mike Bibby chose to break through against Gary Payton, but the chances were not good.

However, at this moment, Peja on the bottom line suddenly moved and appeared at the top of the arc.

Mike Bibby had quick eyes and hands, and quickly passed the ball.

After Peja received the ball, he shot directly without any hesitation, because Lewis' defense had already caught up.

"Shh!"

A slightly hasty shot, but it still went in.

After making this goal, Peja scored 26 points and 10 rebounds in this game, a large double-double.

As for Lewis, this game only had 12 points and 4 rebounds.

It has to be said that he was blown out directly in the matchup.

Although this is just a game and cannot explain everything, it is the truth.

1分26秒，比分88：89，超音速反而落后了1分。

Without any hesitation, Wang Hao stepped forward and asked Gary Payton for the ball.

First he deceived Christie with a fake move, but Wang Hao still chose to break through.

There is no way, the opponent's shot space is really not enough.

At the moment of his breakthrough, Chris Webber had already moved ahead of time, making it clear that he was going to double-team Wang Hao.

They would rather let PJ Brown take the shot than give Wang Hao a good chance.

Peja played well just now, with 26 points and 10 rebounds.

However, today's Wang Hao has scored 35 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, which is the best in the game.

After Wang Hao broke through, he took three steps. Seeing Chris Webber double-team, he quickly threw the ball to PJ Brown.

Everyone knows that PJ Brown's mid-range shooting ability is limited, but when he really wants to make a shot, it is impossible not to guard against it.

Chris Webber is about to get back on defense.

However, looking back, what about the ball?

The ball is naturally still in Wang Hao's hands, it was just a pass fake.

Not only did the feint mislead Chris Webber, but it also swayed Christie, who was also slow.

Under everyone's gaze, Wang Hao scored an easy layup.

90:89, the Supersonics overtook again.

"Wang, this is the king, there is nothing he can't do."

The piercing voice of the host sounded in the key arena, coupled with the cheers of the fans, it was really a beautiful piece of music.

In just three years, Wang Hao has given all Supersonic fans the feeling that is most worth looking forward to.
