The NBA playoffs are in full swing, and the Eastern and Western finals are exciting, with the Mavericks 2-0 Timberwolves, Celtics 3-0 Pacers! On the western side, Doncic has vividly interpreted the temperament of the contemporary ball-holding core to the fullest, unless Huazi can change his fate and lead the team to complete the series turnaround, otherwise, it will be difficult for Doncic's Western Finals MVP. On the eastern side, the Boston Celtics have a thrilling chance to get the Eastern Conference Finals match point in advance, and the battle for MVP in the Eastern Finals is beginning to take shape, but there is a certain amount of suspense! So, who will win the MVP of the Eastern Conference finals?

Since the start of the Eastern Conference finals, many stars have played at a super high level and become strong contenders for the MVP of the Eastern Conference finals. Especially Brown, the second leader of the Green Army, stepped forward again and again to save the Green Army from dire straits, and the limelight completely overshadowed Tatum, the number one star of the Green Army! Among them, in the Eastern Conference G1, the Pacers almost overturned the Green Army step by step, Brown scored 26 points + 7 rebounds + 5 assists + 3 steals, and used a three-pointer to renew the team's life at the last moment of the regular period; In the Eastern Conference G2, Tatum sleepwalked again, and Brown stepped up and scored 40 points + 5 rebounds, leading the team to rewrite the series score to 2-0. This is Brown, with the largest five-year $304 million max salary contract in NBA history, doing what the team boss can't do! However, there is one player who is eyeing the MVP of the Eastern Conference finals!

This man is not Haliburton, the star of the Pacers. A healthy Haliburton is indeed the god of contemporary point guards, dismantling the Green Army's defense with an offensive and passing integration, especially G1, Haliburton scored 25 points + 10 assists + 3 steals, scaring the Green Army into a cold sweat. However, Haliburton was exempted from the game due to a hamstring injury, and almost gave himself and the team a "reprieve". This man is not Sika, who has won the championship before. Sika is indeed a fierce player, so far in the playoffs, Sika has scored 20+ in 6 consecutive games, setting a new record for the longest career in the playoffs. But it is undeniable that Sika's control and influence on the game are still at the super blue-collar level, which is also destined for him to become a supporting role! The big dark horse in the MVP battle for the Eastern Conference finals I want to talk about is Tatum!

The Green Army's return to the Eastern Conference Finals this time is only one step away from returning to the Finals, and as the team's big leader, Tatum has always been questioned. In the words of fans, Tatum's efficiency is not high enough, his ability to play tough battles needs to be improved, and the gorgeous data is all supported by a large number of shots! Especially in the first two games of the Eastern Conference finals, Brown's godly descent was in stark contrast to Tatum's brainless wave shooting - according to statistics, Brown averaged 33 points + 5.5 rebounds + 3.5 assists per game in the first two games of the Eastern Conference finals, with a shooting rate of 51.1%; Tatum averaged only 29.5 points + 9 rebounds + 4.5 assists per game in these two games, shooting only 45.6% from the field. Luckily for the unfortunate moment, Tatum didn't sit still, he played a promiscatory game in G3!

In the Eastern Finals G3, Haliburton hung up the exemption card, and the Pacers were barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, they once established a huge lead of 18 points, which disgraced the Green Army, but unfortunately forced out the strongest version of Tatum! Tatum played 43 minutes, 12 of 23 shots (5 of 10 three-pointers), 7 of 11 free throws, 36 points + 10 rebounds + 8 assists + 2 steals + 1 block, 0 turnovers, and a plus/minus of +12. At the same time, Tatum broke a number of NBA records in one game. According to statistics, this is the fifth time in Tatum's playoff career that he has scored at least 35 points + 10 rebounds, ranking second in team history behind Bird (10). At the same time, Tatum is the first player in NBA history to score at least 36 points + 10 rebounds + 8 assists + 0 turnovers in a single game, which is unprecedented! Even if the standard is lowered, this is the second time in Tatum's playoff career that he has scored at least 35 points + 10 rebounds + 5 assists and 0 turnovers in a single game, and he is the only player in NBA history to have achieved this feat twice, and supergiants such as Lao Zhan, Bird, and O'Neal have only done it once.

So far, Tatum has averaged 31.7 points + 9.3 rebounds + 5.7 assists + 1.3 steals + 2.7 three-pointers per game, and Brown has averaged 30 points + 4.7 rebounds + 3.3 assists + 1.7 steals + 2 three-pointers per game! There is no doubt that the Green Army Shuangtanhua has played a sense of "brotherhood and gold", and they are expected to become the first pair in NBA history to average 30+ per game in the division finals, but it is undeniable that Tatum's tactical status is higher and the data is more comprehensive! Unless the NBA league finds another way for Tatum and Brown to share the MVP of the Eastern Conference finals, otherwise, according to the league's star-making plan and Tatum's status as the team leader, he will inevitably attack in the Eastern Conference finals G4 and grab the Eastern Conference finals MVP! Fans, what do you think about this? Leave me a comment to discuss.
