On April 29, Beijing time, the first round of the NBA playoffs continued to be staged, the Suns eliminated the Pelicans 4-1 to advance, the Lone Rangers eliminated 1 Jazz 4-2 to advance, and now the second round of the team only has 1 suspense. The Timberwolves and Grizzlies series are currently 2-3, with the two teams in two consecutive games with a point difference of less than 2 points, and the difference in strength is very small, and it is difficult to say who can qualify in the end. However, their second-round opponent has been determined to be the Warriors.
Among the teams that have already qualified, it can be found that in each group of duels, there is a 75 superstar. They are Paul of the Suns, Harden of the 76ers, Curry of the Warriors, and Alphabet Brother of the Bucks, so who won the championship this year and the historical status has improved the most?
First of all, let's talk about the alphabet brother, he has won the championship last year, and won the FMVP in the finals, the gold content of the alphabet brother is also relatively high, the first round slaughtered the 2020 Eastern Conference champion Heat, the second round defeated the Nets with the big three, and the finals can be injured and can also bomb 50 points. So his historical position is probably around the 20th, about the same as Nowitzki. If he wins again this year, it's two consecutive titles.
And this year Middleton has packed up, and it is determined that the second round of the game can not play, the next game is also difficult to say, it looks more serious. The East is now more competitive than last year, and if Alphabet Brother can still win the championship in this case, his historical status will be greatly improved, entering the 11-15 range.
Curry is already a triple crown in hand, but he has not made the playoffs in the past two years, which has caused Curry to encounter some doubts, plus he has never won an FMVP. If Curry leads the team to win the championship again this year and wins the damn FMVP, all the gossip should be gone. Curry himself is ranked around 16th in history, achieving a championship + FMVP, and can be around the top 10.
Paul and Harden are both poor 1 crown gods, and their reputations in the past two years are in the opposite situation. For Paul, everyone is more and more exaggerated, and there are mixed praises and criticisms of Harden, and the two forced palace team trades have caused Harden's image in the hearts of many fans to plummet. For Harden, sacrificing the opportunity to renew the big contract in advance, sacrificing the power of the star, and paying a lot of price in order to win the championship. Only by winning the championship can we save Harden's image, his original historical position was in the top thirty or so, after two years of tossing and turning fell to 40 places. If he wins the championship, Harden can at least make up for word of mouth and at the same time raise his status to the previous height.
The most favorable is Paul, who is the god of point guards in everyone's mouth, but there is no really strong honor, and the MVP and the championship are missed. If Paul wins the championship, he can be said to be one of the most inspirational representatives of the NBA, and word of mouth will skyrocket like the 2011 Norte King. Coupled with Paul's accumulated data and various small honors, his historical status can be raised to about 20 in history.
