Chapter 136
The 1985-86 NBA playoffs were in full swing.
The major awards for the NBA regular season have also been announced.
The first to be announced is the Rookie of the Season.
With almost no suspense, "The Gorilla" Patrick Ewing won this year's Rookie of the Year award.
The announcement of this award also indicates that the league has begun to hold stars.
This season's Gorillas missed a whopping 32 games due to injury, not even meeting the minimum playing standard.
David Stern and many other journalists still pushed the crowd to give Ewing the award for the best rookie.
Although Ewing averaged 20 points, 9 rebounds and 2 blocks per game in 50 games, New York's record still ranked first in the league, not the slightest improvement from last season.
In contrast, the Utah Jazz's Carl Malone and the Pistons' Joe Dumas are clearly more qualified to compete for the award than Ewing.
At this point, Ewing also became the player with the fewest appearances in NBA history for the best rookie.
Shortly after the All-Rookie award was announced, the All-Rookie First Team of the season was also announced.
Joe Dumas, Xavier McDaniel, Karl Malone, Patrick Ewing and Manute Pol.
Ball also became the lowest pick on the All-Rookie Team this season, averaging 6.5 points, 12.5 rebounds and 5.8 blocks per game for the Lakers.
This season marks the first time in NBA history that the Most Improved Player Award has been established.
The Spurs' Elvin Robertson was elected.
Robertson was just a marginal bench player with the Spurs last season.
The bench averaged 21 minutes per game, contributing 9.2 points and 3.4 assists.
But this season's Erwin Robertson numbers have shown a spurt of growth.
He started the season in all 82 games and averaged 35.8 minutes per game.
He averaged 17.1 points, 6.3 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 3.2 steals per game, and was selected to the starting lineup of the All-Star Game.
He was voted the most improved player of the season, and he deservedly deservedly won the most unsuspenseful award.
The first round of the 1985-86 playoffs was largely over.
Except for the Rockets and Lakers, who entered the best-of-five battle, the other group matchups have all come to fruition.
Young "Utah double" Stockton and Karl Malone led the Jazz to a 3-1 victory over the Drexler-led Portland Trail Blazers, and will face the winners of the Rockets and Lakers in the next round.
Since ancient times, the Jazz have been known as the home of the devil.
For the Rockets and Lakers' five-game battle, the Jazz naturally hope that the Lakers will advance.
Because if they face the Lakers, they have home-court advantage in the semifinals.
In the second half of the Western Conference, the Nuggets, who excel at running and bombing, easily eliminated the Sacramento Kings in a clean 3-0 and advanced to the semifinals.
In another set of matchups, the Dallas Mavericks were eliminated by the Spurs three times in a row after winning one game first!
This is also the only set of results in the West so far under grams!
The Nuggets will meet the Spurs in the Western Conference semifinals!
Eastern side.
The Boston Celtics, the league's dominant team, easily swept the Washington Bullets 3-0 to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals.
This was the most suspenseless group of matchups in the first round, and the Greenshirts, who were at their peak, did not give the Bullets the slightest chance, averaging 23.6 points per game, crushing the momentum.
The Philadelphia 76ers and Detroit Pistons faced each other fiercely, and the two teams fought four games, and finally the 76ers, with Barkley, Moses Malone and "Dr. J", still came out on top and eliminated the Pistons.
The current bad boy army has not yet taken shape, and after the interior general Ranbir was beaten half to death by Zhou Chen, he has not come back, and the Pistons' interior line naturally cannot resist the footsteps of the Phillies.
The two sets of duels in the lower half of the east are not too suspenseful!
The team-playing, defense-first Bucks eliminated the New Jersey Nets without suspense.
The Bulls, led by Jordan, finally broke through the first round and beat the Hawks 3-1!
Jordan reached the Eastern Conference semifinals for the first time in his career, and he will challenge the veteran Donnellson's Bucks!
