Tang Tian came to power to shake hands with Tatum and hug Buckley Smith.
Three consecutive MVPs are the greatest glory for a player.
Throughout the history of the NBA, only Chamberlain, Bird and Jordan have done it.
Tang Tian has now become the fourth.
Although the previous speech made him poor, he still spoke a lot to the most important MVP.
It is very interesting that the president of the alliance changed, and the first thing he thanked was the alliance.
Quite real.
From the league to the fans to the fans, to the end he said the same as after winning the championship, the main thanks to Walker and Butler.
"This is not my own glory, but also Kemba and Jimmy, and all Pelicans players and all fans, Pelicans championship."
Tang Tian's last words drew a lot of whistles at the scene.
After the MVP was awarded, the final best defensive lineup and best lineup were announced on the spot.
From the defensive second team to the best team, every time one is announced, a group of five will appear on stage for a group photo.
This is also regarded as the final family event of the award ceremony.
Best Defensive Second Team: Dezhang Murray, Conley, Alphabet Brother, Green, Embiid
Best defensive team for a while: Zhu Holiday, Tang Tian, Butler, Davis, Gobert
Best lineup for three teams: Curry, Walker, George, Aldridge, Horford
Second Team of the Best Team: Westbrook, Harden, Butler, Davis, Embiid
Best lineup for a while: Lillard, Tang Tian, Durant, James, Alphabet Brother
When the best squad is also awarded, the first NBA awards party also ends.
The Pelicans are undoubtedly the biggest winner tonight.
Tang Tian alone won the MVP, the best teammate, the best dunk of the year, the best assist of the year, the key ball of the year, and the double one.
Butler also has the best defensive player, the best fight award, and the best second team and defensive team.
Davis also had the best second team and a defensive team.
Walker has three formations.
Siakam won the fastest progress award.
Stevens took the best head coach.
Demps took the best general manager.
A total of 20 awards, ranking the best lineup and the best defensive lineup, the Pelicans won a total of 10.
Half of the country.
In the 80-win season, the Pelicans' honor was soft.
The awards show ended and the 2017 ~ 2018 season officially ended, but the gates following the 2018 ~ 2019 season have been opened.
The first to bear the brunt is the draft convention.
Demps came to Tang Tian as he did in previous years.
Tang Tian also gave advice as before.
When Temples left, he began to think about a problem.
The time node he traversed in his last life was at the end of 2019.
The time was flying fast, and it was almost time for him to pass this time.
In other words, with the draft alone, he can give Demps advice, at most next year.
And because rookies take time to grow, the low-ranked rookies given may not always be as talented as before.
So maybe next season is over, he has to consider some other things.
Two days later, on June 22, US time, the 2018 NBA Draft was opened at Madison Square Garden Arena.
The Xiaohua Times League draft moved from Manhattan to Brooklyn.
Perhaps it was to erase the traces of Xiao Hua, or maybe it was just a personal hobby. Tatum returned the draft to the basketball Mecca.
This retro style has the characteristics of Tatum, and also wins a burst of applause from fans on social media.
People are nostalgic.
Before this year's finals, the draft lottery has been decided by drawing lots.
The Suns were favored by the goddess of luck and successfully won the top pick.
Their current lineup is full of talent, Daniel Smith, Payton Jr., Jaylen Brown, Porzingis.
This year's top pick is DeAndre Ayton.
Once again, Ayton will be fulfilled.
But afterwards Zhuge Liang said that if they left Tatum, they will be stable in the playoffs next season.
The Hornets won the role model.
The prospects were won by the Clippers. Their probability of winning the prospects was only 7.8%, which was comparable to the Cavaliers' first prize in 2011.
Counting the 11th pick they had traded before, the Clippers really made a difference at the draft this year.
The 4th to 8th places belong to the Kings, 76ers, Grizzlies, Eagles and Bulls.
The Pelicans only have a 30-round first round and a 60-round second round this year.
Demps has just won his second best general manager trophy.
But this offseason is actually very challenging for him.
Tang Tian announced that Walker and Butler's contract expired, how to choose is a problem.
And the contract expires not only the two of them, Ross, Lamb, Dior, West contract also expired.
This is equal to half of the player's contract expires.
And he had to consider Brogdon and Siakam with only 2 years left for his rookie contract.
Although these are all things in the free agent market, it will involve how to select people in the draft conference.
The list given by Tang Tian is for reference only, he needs to weigh the pros and cons by himself.
However, near Zhu Zhechi, who has been with Tang Tian for a long time, he is also capable of handling these things.
In other words, he was considered a teacher.
Madison Square is full, and fans in all kinds of jerseys are gathered together. This grand scene can only be seen at the draft conference.
And because of the rules of the draft picks, the scene is more of fans of weak teams.
After being abused by the home team for a season, the draft is their hope of rebirth!
Tang Tian did not go to the draft, even he did not watch the draft live, but took Olsen to the Caribbean vacation.
I hadn't succeeded in preparing for the pregnancy before, so I had to hurry up this time.
After everything was ready, Tatum went from behind the scenes to the stage.
He was greeted with cheers.
This is breaking the tradition of President Boo!
But this can also see the expectations of fans of each team for Tatum, they are really fed up with Xiao Hua before!
After a familiar opening statement, Tatum officially announced the start of the draft.
The first pick belongs to the Suns.
They also chose DeAndre Ayton from the University of Arizona as everyone expected.
Ayton is 2 meters 16 and NCAA averages 20.1 points, 11.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.9 blocks per game, which is quite dominant.
There is not much suspense about this choice ~ www.novelhall.com ~ The second pick Hornets chose Mohammed Bamba.
This choice is suffocating.
Bamba ranked sixth in the previous selection prediction.
But Jordan once again showed his vision, instead of choosing Bagley, the former top spot, but chose him.
Whether it's a surprise or a shock, I'm afraid it will only be felt by Hornets fans when the season begins.
"The third overall pick belongs to the Los Angeles Clippers. They have 5 minutes to consider."
But in this way, the choice of the third pick has become confusing.
The Hornets don't choose Bagley, and the Clippers must theoretically win.
But the Clippers are currently in charge of Jerry West, what choice he will make, it is worth curious fans on the scene.
