Chapter 139, [Magnetic Gloves], [Rookie of the Year]
The next G3 game is very important for the Nuggets, who have been forced into a desperate situation by the Lakers.
If they lose again, it means they are eliminated.
On the plane to Denver, Zhou Hang also learned about the other events tonight.
The Rockets lost to the Jazz 84-90 again at home, and the Jazz led the Rockets 2-0.
McGrady played his role as a leader in G2, scoring 23 points, 13 rebounds and 9 assists in the whole game, but he was unable to beat four-handed with two fists.
Delong led the Jazz to score in double digits, and their offense blossomed in full swing.
The Jazz played two away games in a row, which made their advantage more obvious.
Then, on the Celtics, they defeated the Atlanta Hawks 96-77 at home, and the Cavaliers defeated the Wizards 116-86.
It seems that there will be a sweep situation in these two rounds of the series.
Zhou Hang just scanned the match report a little and did not carefully study the Green Shirts' game.
Now the Lakers need to win the Western Conference to enter the Finals.
Denver is very high at an altitude. Although this is not the first time I have been here, Zhou Hang is also feeling a little uncomfortable.
Not only him, but the Lakers are almost the same.
Early the next morning.
When Zhou Hang turned on the TV, he also learned that he had won an award.
"Zhou Hang won the Best Rookie Award in the 2007-2008 season."
"Zhou Hang defeated his opponent Durant with suppressed scores in the competition for the best rookie."
"Zhou Hang's personal data is competitive in any year."
"Zhou Hang is the rookie who has played the most impressive games in the past 20 years."
...
The host of ESPN kept telling about the various luxurious achievements Zhou Hang made in the regular season.
Best Rookie?
Zhou Hang almost forgot this award.
As Zhou Hang's status in the Lakers becomes more and more stable and his performance becomes more and more outstanding, this award will sooner or later become the winner.
This is how people are and don’t care much about the things in their pockets.
Zhou Hang is different from Durant. Durant cares about this award very much, because if he does not win this award, it means that Durant will not gain much this year.
Zhou Hang is different, Zhou Hang still has the chance to win the championship!
Of course, if you win the award, you will naturally feel happier.
"Dang, get the best rookie of the year, reward skill card [magnetic gloves] (passive skill)"
"【Magnetic Gloves】: Glove Payton's exclusive skill, after the host understands it, the steal attributes are randomly increased, and the defensive attributes are permanently increased by 5%!"
"use!!"
Zhou Hang used this card without hesitation.
This is a permanent skill card, which will significantly improve his defensive ability.
.........
News that Zhou Hang won the Best Rookie quickly came back to China.
There is no controversy about this award, and Zhou Hang's record this season is too strong.
Although the playoffs are not considered regular season award evaluation, after two playoff games, fans felt that Zhou Hang deserved the award.
"Zhou Hang won 40+ in two consecutive games, helping the Lakers easily win the first two home games, and is worthy of being the best rookie of the year!"
"According to experts' predictions, if this year's draft will be re-arranged, Zhou Hang will be ranked first, Durant will be ranked second and Oden will be third."
"Zhou Hang's performance in the regular season is just like an All-Star. After entering the playoffs, his performance can be described as a superstar."
"Zhou Hang's performance is impeccable, and Lakers fans all like him."
"Zhou Hang will take over Kobe and become the new leader in Los Angeles!"
"The Lakers' offensive power in the backcourt league is the strongest, who can stop them from scoring?"
Los Angeles media and domestic media are spreading overwhelming publicity and reporting on Zhou Hang's performance in the game.
Commentators, experts, and fans were also constantly shocked by Zhou Hang's stable playoffs.
No one would have thought that a rookie could score such a high score just after entering the playoffs.
Especially with him, there are all-star players like Kobe and Gasol.
Zhou Hang performed very easily on the sidelines, as if he was strolling in the garden. No one would have thought that this guy was just a rookie.
More and more people are looking forward to what height Zhou Hang will reach in the future.
In the away locker room.
The Lakers held a brief award ceremony, and the Lakers also expressed their congratulations to Zhou Hang.
The Lakers have not received the Best Rookie Award for a long time.
The Lakers are not good at cultivating rookies, they are very good at trading to get superstars.
.............
As time goes by, the G3 battle also started quickly.
Pepsi Center Arena.
Lakers players were verbally and booed here.
"Week, go back to your country, it's not for you."
"Zhou, you will only shoot like girls outside and dare not go in and dunk."
"Bryant, do you like the prison in Denver?"
"Boy, you're going to be arrested again tonight!!"
....
Denver fans are constantly venting their veil at Lakers players. In this round of the series, the Lakers pulled off their fig leaf and attacked the players in various ways.
"Chou, we're going to sweep them here." Kobe was very unhappy when he heard the fans' insults.
The Eagle County incident happened in Denver, and fans here kept mentioning Kobe's incident.
Zhou Hang nodded and said, "I know, I will definitely."
Zhou Hang also hates the atmosphere here.
Soon, the game started.
In this game, Zen Master placed Zhou Hang on the starting point guard.
Zhou Hang performed well in point guard, which reduced Fisher's playing time.
The only thing that can make the Zen master do this is Zhou Hang's absolute strength.
Gasol allocated the ball to Zhou Hang.
After Zhou Hang arrived at the frontcourt, he used Odom's cover to decisively move the jump shot and scored three-pointers!!
Zhou Hang made a very determined shot in this ball!!
Iverson rushed over the cover.
But this ball is like a rainbow!
"Swish!"
3 to 0.
Nuggets fans were speechless when they looked at Zhou Hang's three-pointer.
In the first two games, they watched Zhou Hang repeatedly on TV using this offense that almost ignored defense to kick the Nuggets into the abyss.
The booing of Nuggets fans became less and more difficult for a moment.
After Zhou Hang scored, he put his finger in the middle of his mouth and signaled all the fans to shut up.
The booing fans who had just left the scene suddenly started to rise again because of Zhou Hang's provocation.
Zhou Hang laughed after hearing the boo.
He likes to see the scenes where these fans hate him but have no choice.
But the Nuggets' response came quickly.
In the frontcourt attack, Iverson gave the ball to Anthony's low post.
After Anthony received the ball, he immediately turned around and wiped Odom from the low post on the right. Martin resisted Gasol. Anthony had room in front. He held the ball and decisively attacked the basket and made a one-hand dunk!!
3 to 2.
This dunk kept cheering on the scene.
After landing, Anthony roared and shouted a few words. Anthony knew very well that he needed to stand up in this game, otherwise the Nuggets would still have no hope!
Barkley shouted: "Cameron Anthony has never shown the style of the team leader, which is very dangerous for the Nuggets and he needs to do more."
Chapter completed!
