Zhao Jiwei, who was born in Anshan, Liaoning Province in 1995, entered the Liaoning first team in 2013 and has been working in the Liaoning team for more than ten years, which can be said to be a meritorious player of the Liaoning team.
Zhao Jiwei has also gained a lot in the Liaoning team, he has won three championships, won FMVP twice, and married a wife last year. This is the envy of many people, at least the other two players like Yuan Shuai and Gao Shiyan are envious of him.
Zhao Jiwei's current success is also inseparable from his efforts, he has slowly grown from an unknown player to the team's core defender. Especially in the absence of Guo Allen this season, Zhao Jiwei's offensive organization took on all the responsibilities of one person, and he was both a father and a mother on the court.
Without Zhao Jiwei, the strength of the Liaoning team will be reduced by at least three percent, and the Liaoning team will no longer dare to underestimate Zhao Jiwei's role.
still remembers that in the final battle of life and death in the 2020 finals, Martinez directly pressed Zhao Jiwei to the cold bench and only gave him 9 minutes of playing time in the whole game. Liaoning also lost in that game and missed the championship.
After the game, Zhao Jiwei was very angry and said on his personal social media platform, "What am I? I am willing to do anything for the Liaoning team, but today I really can't bear it."
I believe that if the Liaoning team reaches the finals again, Zhao Jiwei may not even have time to rest, and the reason why the Liaoning team introduced Adams and Sherif Cooper is mainly to share the pressure on Zhao Jiwei.
Zhao Jiwei played particularly well this season, averaging 15.1 points per game, second only to Zhang Zhenlin in the Liaoning team. In terms of assists, he averaged 8.6 assists per game, which is the assist king in the ball, and Zhao Jiwei can shoot 34.4% from three-point range, second only to the team's main rotation Yan Shouqi.
No matter which data Zhao Jiwei is in the Liaoning team, he is basically in the leading position. Therefore, in this year's MVP selection, Zhao Jiwei is also second only to Abdusalam of the Xinjiang team.
Zhao Jiwei has been on the list of MVP candidates for four consecutive years, but Zhao Jiwei has not won the MVP for three consecutive years. The MVPs of the first three years were Wu Qian, Hu Jinqiu and Wang Zhelin.
It is worth mentioning that Wu Qian's regular season MVP is hugely controversial.
I don't know if Zhao Jiwei can realize his dream of regular season MVP this season, this still needs to be voted by the media delegation. Although Abdul Salamu has the advantage in terms of data, voting still depends on the likes and dislikes of individual media representatives.
If Zhao Jiwei can win the regular season MVP this season, then he will have collected the regular season MVP and the Finals MVP, and the only difference is an All-Star Game MVP. And Hu Mingxuan is a regular season MVP, but unfortunately he doesn't even have the qualifications for a candidate.
