On May 14, 2015, before the start of the fourth game of the Warriors and Rockets series, the NBA officially announced the final ownership of the regular season MVP this season.
After the announcement, there was silence in the Warriors locker room.
Draymond Green originally prepared a bunch of mocking Links, but in the end, they could only be silently deleted on the phone.
Curry, who has always been optimistic, lowered his head, expressionless.
The rest of the Warriors are mostly in a state of listlessness.
Steve Kerr has never seen a team in such a state. This season, the Warriors' locker room atmosphere has been superb. Whether you win or lose, it's impossible for depression to appear in the locker room.
But today, this sentiment is printed in the heart of every Warrior player.
Cole stood in the locker room, not knowing how to comfort his players. Because even he himself is surrounded by depression.
Thinking of this, Cole glanced at his phone screen again. Above, it is the news that the alliance officially announced the ownership of the MVP.
Unlike most people's expectations, the regular season MVP winner of the 14-15 season is not Curry, but Link!
Also, Link's vote rate for winning the MVP this time is not as low as people think.
In the selection of the best defensive player, Leonard's vote rate is only less than 2% lower than Link. This is the basis for many Oakland fans to have confidence in Curry winning the MVP.
But after the MVP vote came out, all Warriors fans were speechless.
Curry got 35.4% of the votes in this vote, which is indeed very high.
Throughout the history of the NBA, the majority of the votes are around 35%, and almost all have won the MVP of the season.
When Nash won the MVP title in 2006, he even got only 28% of the votes. When "Magic" Johnson got the MVP in 1990, he got only 26% of the votes.
But just as the Warriors won 67 wins and are still second in the Western Conference, Curry won 35.4% of the votes, but he still missed the MVP.
Because of Link's vote rate, it is as high as 50.2%!
Except for Link, who was unanimously elected as the MVP last season, only two super giants, O'Neal and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, can get more than 50% of the votes in the MVP selection in NBA history!
And today, Link became the third one!
After the results of the votes were made public, the Warriors team was completely autistic.
They thought Curry could get the MVP, but what happened? Curry can't even stick to other people's edges!
As the saying goes, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. It goes without saying how disappointed the Warriors players are now.
Link has always been the one who was voted unanimously last season, which shows that the media's recognition of him is quite high.
It’s not surprising that I can get more than 50% of the votes this year.
But for the Warriors, this is very sad. After continuing with 67 wins and taking second place in the West, the Golden State Warriors have been hit again!
Cole shook his head and turned off the phone screen. No matter how many times I watch the news, the result cannot be changed. The only thing he can do now is to guide everyone forward.
How about taking MVP? Players who get MVP may not necessarily have good results in the playoffs.
The 2007 MVP Dirk did not even pass the first round. The 2006 MVP Nash still failed to make the finals. The 01 MVP Iverson was directly beat out by the Lakers.
Didn't these MVPs all crash in the playoffs?
What's more, Cole thought he had mastered the secret weapon to defeat the Grizzlies.
He believes that his improved five-small lineup can allow the Warriors to break out of the siege and change the league structure!
So Kerr clapped his hands and all the players in the locker room raised their heads.
"There is no time to be sad, guys. The Memphis Grizzlies are waiting for us now, don't let them be proud of it for too long! Today, we will take care of the Houston Rockets!"
The Warriors players looked at Cole and nodded silently.
But it seems that the mood is still not very high...
※※※
While the Warriors players were fighting the Rockets at the Toyota Center, Link sat in the media reception room of the Federal Express Arena and received the regular season MVP trophy from NBA officials.
The moment he received the trophy, Link gave a kiss without shy.
flashed the masterpiece in an instant, but Link waved at them, "Save some memory, and then you have to take pictures of me with the Western Conference Championship trophy and the championship trophy!"
Link is still confident, in fact, from the beginning, he was very confident in this MVP trophy.
Warriors fans and players think that Curry can win the prize, but they are somewhat lucky.
They luckily believe that Curry's influence can fill in his lack of data and overtake Link.
They are lucky to think that Curry can be as lucky as Kavai Leonard and can be favored by the media.
But it turns out that this alliance does not need fluke, only strength.
Link's personal data that is much better than Curry is right there and cannot be changed. The Grizzlies' ranking of No. 1 in the West also rests on the Warriors, and they have no chance to surpass.
In fact, as long as you analyze it rationally, most people will think that Curry has no chance of winning at all.
Curry is indeed excellent, but not the best.
Sitting on the stage, Link looked at a group of horse-faced Oakland reporters. He couldn't help but stroked the gold cup beside him and smiled triumphantly. "Gentlemen, haven't you been clamoring for an interview since yesterday? Just ask!"
"Link, the Grizzlies refused to allow reporters to interview during media opening hours. You should have received a ticket from the league?" An Oakland reporter stood up and prepared to use this to extinguish Link's arrogance. .
"Sir, our press conference is specially organized for the MVP awards. Please don't ask irrelevant questions." Behind Link, the Grizzlies press officer exclaimed dissatisfiedly.
"It's okay, it's okay, let him ask. People come from afar and can't let him go home empty-handed. In fact, we received a ticket from the league this morning. It must be admitted that their efficiency in collecting fines is The highest in the United States. As a law-abiding team that supports the work of the league, we have submitted fines, and two consecutive fines! Because we have decided to continue closed training before the start of the Western Conference Finals."
Link's indifferent attitude made the reporter hit a wall.
People originally wanted to take advantage of this matter, but the grizzly bears don’t eat this one at all. Can the people who play the prestige be embarrassed?
Seeing that his colleagues failed to attack, another reporter from Oakland raised his hand and continued to ask questions. To be precise, it continued to try to embarrass Link.
"Link, what do you think of Stephen Curry's performance in the last three games? As MVP, your personal data in the Western Conference semifinals is completely behind Stephen. Do you think this will put you under pressure?"
"First of all, I respect Stephen. But even if he scores 100 points in a single game in the Western Conference semifinals, the MVP trophy will still remain in Memphis. In fact, I'm about to talk to you about this. You want to see me take it out. Better data? Don't worry, I will satisfy you in the Western Conference Finals, I promise!"
Link was still not angry. His "I promise" made the reporters in Oakland get goose bumps.
In the past few days, Link has not countered the Warriors' attack. But if you don’t fight back, you will be very powerful once you fight back!
Seeing that the reporters in Oakland had nothing to say, Link continued to add, "Of course, the Warriors' current opponent is still the Rockets~EbookFREE.me~ but don't forget, they have not advanced yet. I am. I advise you, don’t always be so confident."
Two and a half hours after Link finished this sentence, at the Toyota Center, the Houston Rockets tenaciously defeated the Golden State Warriors who were desperately eager to advance by 128 to 115!
The Rockets made 17 of 22 shots in the first quarter today, including 8 of 9 3-pointers, and established a 23-point lead early!
And Harden scored 45 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists in this game, putting the "splash brothers" both under him!
The state of the Warriors players in this game was very low. They were shocked because of Curry's loss of MVP before they realized what had happened, they were hit hard by the Rockets again.
Whether they want it or not, the Warriors must continue to struggle in the quagmire of the Western Conference semifinals.
As soon as the game ended, Link immediately posted a post on social media.
"So I said, don't you always be so confident! To the MVP, to the Rockets. To the Memphis Grizzlies, the same is true!"
Now, it's Link's turn to launch his saliva offensive.
And every Warriors player is unable to refute at this time...
