Wayne nodded approvingly, it's a good idea you have.

But I'm mainly worried

You keep yelling at me to save you!

In fact, Wayne was completely over-worrying.

Although Artest was a bad fighter at the beginning of the century, now, Artest is a real villain.

There are really not many people who dare to compete with him.

That night, just as Wayne expected, the Warriors defeated the Spurs in San Antonio with a score of 118 to 106.

Paul had 23 points and 11 assists, Thompson had 37 points, Green Green had 16 points, 12 rebounds and 7 assists.

The Warriors relied on their five-small lineup in the final quarter to completely dismember the Spurs.

As for the Spurs, there are actually not many people available this season, and the GDP is really old.

Parker averaged 10.8 points and 5.7 assists per game, and Ginobili averaged 6.5 points per game.

Duncan, who just won the trophy the year before last, only had 6 points and 3.8 rebounds in this series.

The Spurs seem to have a lot of rotation players, but in fact only Aldridge and Kawhi can play.

After the game, Deng Shu looked at the Warriors players celebrating their victory without saying a word.

People didn't know it at this time, but this would be Duncan's last game in the NBA.

From now on, the legend of eating T with a smile will no longer exist.

Of course, you don't need to be too sad.

Because many years later, fans will probably receive this news: It is a pity that Duncan was disqualified from the Hall of Fame and ejected from the venue because he laughed on stage.

After the game, the reporter found Paul. The Warriors leader has led the team to the Western Conference Finals for the second consecutive year.

And their opponent has long been determined to be the Trail Blazers.

Compared with last season, the Warriors have changed a lot, and the Trail Blazers have also changed a lot.

Reporters also asked Paul if he had the confidence to defeat the Trail Blazers again.

Pao'er's eyes were firm, he knew that Brother Wei was watching TV.

So, he made a challenge to Wayne through the screen.

"Before the champion falls, he is still a champion, and we are still the strongest team in the Western Conference!"

Wayne looked at it and called him "good guy," a Western Conference champion has been made to look like a championship by you.

At this point, the matchup in the Western Conference has been determined.

In the end, the Trail Blazers and Warriors fought off a number of strong opponents, and the Western Conference Finals was still a sequel to last season.

Wayne looked at Paul, but he didn't feel anything special yet.

But Curry looked at Paul and couldn't help but clenched his fists.

In the Western Conference Finals, it’s time to fight hard again.

The next day, the NBA officially announced the results of this year's Defensive Player of the Year selection.

Prior to this, several regular season awards had been announced, but none of them caused any uproar.

The Most Improved Player is C.J. McCollum of the Mavericks, the Sixth Man of the Year is Crawford, and the Rookie of the Year Towns.

Well, it's the 91 Mr. Tang who couldn't hit anyone and made his own European step layup.

There is no way, even though he is so embarrassed, he is indeed the best performer among this rookie class.

For the first three awards, the number of winners was a bit lacking, and the discussion generated was only average.

But today's Defensive Player of the Year award is very eye-catching.

Because the competition for this award this year is extremely fierce.

In addition to last season's DPOY winner Kawhi, there are also new stars Chai Dan and the return of the king Wayne!

The discussion has been very intense as to whether Kawhi will win consecutively, Green will make a new start, or the former three consecutive DPOY Wayne will regain his honor.

After all, all three of them have made great contributions on the defensive end.

Both Kawhi and Green were very nervous this morning and kept checking their phones to wait for the results.

But Wayne is very calm, because in his opinion, no one else can take away this award!

At 11 o'clock at noon, Wayne, who was on his way to the arena, heard the ringing of his cell phone, so he walked over and picked up the phone.

Sure enough, it was Patterson calling.

"Wey, best defensive player, best defensive player! Haha, you are now the person who has won the most defensive player awards in NBA history, no one else!

We will hold a press conference for you in the afternoon and award you the award.

Congratulations, as long as you come back, others will have no chance at all!"

Patterson's voice was very excited, and Wayne just chuckled.

Kawhi and Green are both good defensively, but they both have shortcomings.

Only Wayne has no shortcomings on the defensive end.

As the top player this season, as long as Wayne does not stretch his hips, most people will tend to vote for him, so from the beginning, Wayne felt that there was no suspense about this award.

Won the DPOY trophy for the fifth time in his career, the first in history.

And if the next MVP is also obtained

5 regular season MVPs are enough to equal Jordan!

Far away in Auckland, Chai Dan looked at the final result of DPOY and covered his head in frustration.

For a player like him, DPOY is almost the ultimate honor he can achieve in his life.

MVP, FMVP, these have almost nothing to do with Green.

But even this only thought was now destroyed by Wayne.

Green was very angry. He felt that his performance was not bad. Wayne was able to win the award simply because he was famous.

Fortunately, the Trail Blazers and Warriors will meet in the playoffs next.

When the time comes, Green will use his own method to prove who is the best defensive player in the league!

In the afternoon, Wayne won his fifth DPOY trophy in the press conference hall.

As the DPOY in the first three consecutive years, he won the DPOY again after retiring for two years. It can almost be said that Wayne dominated this award.

I can give you this thing, but you can't steal it.

For this, Wayne emphatically thanked Curry. If he hadn't been targeted by the opponent every day for several years, Wayne would not have had so many opportunities to help defend and block shots.

In recent days, Wayne has also noticed that something is not right with Curry.

This guy has become very serious and has completely lost the funny atmosphere of the past.

And as the Western Conference Finals approached, his state became even more intense.

Therefore, Wayne originally wanted to amuse the elementary school students with this joke.

Unexpectedly, after returning to the locker room, the primary school student still had a serious expression. He just congratulated Wayne and went to the training ground with the basketball in his arms.

Looking at Curry pushing out the door, Carter also shrugged at Wayne.

"It's been like this since the Western Conference semifinals. This is the first time I've seen my nephew be so serious."

Wayne recalled the scene last season when Curry took painkillers on the spot but still failed to lead the team to the finals.

"For him, this is his most important battle. He will not let the fans here's wishes fail again."

Wayne smiled, hugged a basketball and followed him out.

On the training ground, accompanied by a trainer, Curry was shooting wildly.

He knows very well that the Warriors are a more difficult opponent than the Thunder.

The Thunder are great, mainly because of their two young masters. If they kill both young men, they will kill the game.

But the Warriors are different. They are a team with strong stars and a complete system.

Their defense is extremely fierce and their offense is very stable.

With the duo of Green and Paul, the Warriors' offense never seems to stagnate.

"I will never be inaccurate again in this series, Brother Wei." While shooting, the primary school student talked to Wayne.

In the last round against the Thunder, Curry's performance was generally impeccable. But there was one game where he was defeated. Not only was he defeated, but he was also shot by Robertson.

Curry knows that this kind of thing must not happen when playing against the Warriors.

"I'm not worried about you missing the mark at all."

"Also, I won't let Chris Paul do whatever he wants."
