The finals start, and the two finals teams this year are actually quite unexpected. Before the start of the season, I'm afraid no one would have thought that the finals would be these two teams.

The Grizzlies were at the bottom of the league last season. Even if they improved this season, they would not be able to reach the finals in one step.

The Knicks were only seventh in the Eastern Conference last season. No one believed that they could make it to the finals this season.

But it was just like this that the two teams reached the finals, which was the most unexpected showdown in recent years.

...

The Grizzlies have a better record in the regular season, so this first game is the home court of the Grizzlies.

After the players from both sides entered the court, Jiang Dongbing looked at the Knicks' lineup carefully. Although Ewing was absent, the Knicks' advantage of being rich and powerful was reflected at the time.

Don't forget that there is also a Marcus Camby on their bench. This player is a member of the Golden Generation. Although he is a substitute in the Knicks, his overall strength is definitely stronger than the starting centers of many teams in the league.

However, Jiang Dongbing didn't take Camby seriously, mainly because Camby's offense and rebounding were not threatening. Even on the defensive end, Camby's single defense ability is not good. His best bet is his assistant defense ability.

Facing a bulky super-heavy center like Miller, Camby actually has basically no good way to restrict Miller.

...

At the beginning of the game, the Grizzlies firmly had the advantage from the beginning, and the New York Knicks had no power to fight back.

When Ewing was still there, the Knicks were far from the opponent of the Grizzlies. Not to mention that Ewing is gone now, the Grizzlies are just hanging up and hitting the Knicks.

Jiang Dongbing was not surprised at all to be able to beat the Knicks, but what surprised him was Miller's performance tonight.

In the series against the Spurs, Miller's three-pointers, organization and high pick-and-roll ability helped the Grizzlies a lot. Now that it is the finals, Miller still has not continued to be stationed in the penalty area and still uses the style of playing against the Spurs.

As a result, this fight made Miller have a high presence on the court and the data were extremely eye-catching.

"Will Miller get the MVP in the end?" Jiang Dongbing thought helplessly.

Among the players on the Grizzlies now, except for Christie who has a low chance of getting FMVP, the other four people actually have a chance, but it depends on their personal performance.

Jiang Dongbing naturally looked forward to Jackson getting this fmvp, but he would not force other players to give Jackson data, which is very unfair.

It has reached this moment and the opponent is not worth mentioning. Who doesn’t want to swipe more data, and doesn’t want to win the highest honor fmvp and make their career take off.

By the end of the game, Miller was indeed the best player in this game, with 21 points, 12 rebounds and 13 assists.

Jiang Dongbing instantly had an illusion, as if it was not Brad Miller who played on the court, but Jokic, a little fat man in later generations. Thinking about the styles of these two people are really similar.

However, Jokic's strength is definitely much stronger than Miller, and his ultimate potential is definitely not comparable to Miller.

"I've played well, keep it up!" Jiang Dongbing smiled and encouraged Miller.

"Thank you, coach!" Miller thanked silly, with a smile on his face. If nothing unexpected happens, they are likely to sweep the Knicks. As long as they can continue this performance in the next three games, then FMVP will be his own!

You should know that Miller is now a rookie season. What does it mean to get FMVP in a rookie season? There are not many NBA history in the entire NBA.

To be precise, there is only one, that is, Lakers legend Magic Johnson, and only he has achieved such an achievement in NBA history.

Miller felt that if he really accomplished such a feat, when his rookie contract was over, he would definitely get a super sky-high contract and reach the peak of his life in one fell swoop.

Because of the second round pick, Miller signed a contract with the Grizzlies for only three years. Now he has finished playing in one year, and he will get rich in another two years.

Thinking of this, Miller couldn't stop talking.

After returning to the locker room, Jackson approached Jiang Dongbing and said that he had something to talk to Jiang Dongbing in private.

"What's wrong, Stephen?" Jiang Dongbing asked curiously.

If it were other players, Jiang Dongbing might think that he was because Miller performed too well and might snatch his fmvp, so he put pressure on the coach.

But Jackson is definitely not such a player, and Jiang Dongbing doesn't know what Jackson wants to talk about.

"Coach, do you think we can trade David next season?" Jackson asked with hope.

After being separated from David for so long, Jackson missed himself as a good friend all the time. Now the championship is right in front of him, and he finally couldn't bear it and spoke to Jiang Dongbing.

Jiang Dongbing also knew that Jackson's real purpose was actually to trade David.

"Stephen, of course I want David to come over, let's continue to join forces, but you also know that the Clippers are not so easy to let people go." Jiang Dongbing sighed and said.

"Didn't it mean that the league is just a business? I think as long as the price we offer is high enough, the Clippers will definitely not refuse, right?" Jackson said again.

Jiang Dongbing nodded. This was indeed correct, "But who knows how high the Clippers will be? Maybe half of our starting lineup will be."

"Is an FMVP center enough? Even if David's potential looks high, at least it hasn't been played yet. If I want to exchange for the FMVP center, the Clippers will not agree." Jackson blinked and smiled.

Jiang Dongbing was stunned. Jackson was actually making such an idea. No wonder he had many opportunities to swipe data in tonight's game, but he gave up all of them.

Who did you give it to? Jiang Dongbing thought about it carefully and seemed to give it to Miller!

Jiang Dongbing was speechless. Jackson seemed to be a real person. In order to get David back to his side, he was willing to hand over FMVP.

But Jackson is right. If Miller finally got the FMVP, it would be more than enough to exchange David with Miller's value.

Unless Sterling's mind is in the water, there is no reason to refuse such a deal.

Since Larry Bird, NBA has never had white fmvp, and NBA's main consumer force is actually white. Think about how terrible Miller's value will be at that time.

Sterling cherishes David so much, which is actually a similar reason. Once a white player achieves his achievements, his influence and fan attention will definitely be higher than that of a black player.

Take Williams, for example, the reason why he has such a high popularity is that in addition to his "gorgeous" style of play, his white skin has also helped a lot.

"It should be OK. I think Sterling should not refuse such a pie that comes to the door." Jiang Dongbing said with a wry smile.
