The opening three-pointer in basketball

"We are witnessing history, and we are going to see the rise of a super player." - "Minnesota Evening News"

"The NBA will usher in a historical superstar, and he will also be the first Asian superstar." - "NBA Online"

"Incredible, Bai actually entered the MVP rankings." - "Los Angeles Daily"

"While Williams and others are still considering whether they can get the qualification to play, Bai is already competing with James and Kobe." - "Sports Today"

"It's time to seriously consider Bai's data. I think it's very normal for Bai to enter the MVP rankings." - "The New York Times"

"He will be a rookie who will be remembered by future generations. His achievements this year are worth as much as 80% to 90% of players have for many years." - "Beautiful Country News"

Many media in Beautiful Country reported on the latest mvp rankings today. Among them, what attracted the most attention to fans was not that Rose was at the top and James was second, but Bai Yi was ranked eighth.

You must know that whether it is Rose, James, or Kobe Durant, they have been in the league for at least three years.

After constant hype and many exciting games before, it was recognized by the media.

Only then are you eligible to compete for the league mvp.

And Bai Yi has only been in the league for a long time, and he is just a rookie.

It even appeared on the mvp ranking list.

It's really surprising.

In fact, in the history of the league, only two players have become MVPs in their rookie seasons. One is Chamberlain. He was a super ruthless player who averaged 37 points and 27 rebounds per game in his rookie season.

He won the Rookie of the Year award, as well as the rebounding and scoring titles that season.

Another person is Bone Crusher Unseld, who averaged 13.8 points per game and 18.6 rebounds per game that year.

He has a good record and helped the team win first place in the league's regular season.

Bai Yi's current situation is less like Unseld's and more like Chamberlain's. He is now the scoring leader, three-point leader, and steal leader.

The Rookie of the Year award must also be his.

However, during Chamberlain’s time, there wasn’t that much entertainment for the common people, and the Internet wasn’t that powerful yet.

And to be honest, Chamberlain's opponents were not very strong at that time.

But it is much more difficult for Baiyi now. His opponents are Rose, James, Durant and others.

Another important point is that Chamberlain is a beautiful Chinese, but Bai Yi is an international player.

It's hard to say whether the league is willing to support him and whether those reporters will vote for him, a foreigner.

After all, over the years, very few international players have won MVP awards, namely Nash and Nowitzki.

Nash is from Maple Leaf Country, and Maple Leaf Country is a tributary of Beautiful Country.

Nowitzki is a bit special, but he is still white and shares the same race and culture as the vast majority of elites in the beautiful country.

Bai Yi comes from Chinese civilization.

It is obviously not an easy thing for these arrogant white people to admit that Bai Yi is excellent.

Of course, even if you don't win the MVP in the end, just entering this MVP list as a rookie is already a huge achievement.

In fact, Kobe, O'Neal, Jordan, and James did not enter the MVP rankings in their four rookie seasons.

So Bai Yi's entry into this list is actually a huge success.

After the media reports came out, Timberwolves fans were naturally the happiest, and many old fans even couldn't help crying with joy.

For them, MVP-level players are a huge inspiration and a symbol of the team's rise.

The Timberwolves haven't been together for a very long time, and it hasn't even been twenty years now.

In the team's short ten-year history, they have only had one MVP-level player, and that person is Garnett.

Garnett won the league MVP that year and became the Wolf King of the Mega League. He later led the team to the Western Conference Finals.

This is the Timberwolves' greatest honor.

Now that the Timberwolves' record is second in the league, fans naturally believe that Bai Yi will also lead the Timberwolves to rise.

The local media in Minnesota even began to compare the data of Bai Yi and Chamberlain, and then came to a conclusion.

Bai Yi can also compete for the regular season MVP, and he has great hopes.

Of course, that’s just how the Minnesota media sees it.

In fact, although the vast majority of the media were shocked that Bai Yi entered the top ten of the MVP list and expressed their congratulations, very few felt that Bai Yi could compete for the MVP.

Most media believe that Bai Yi is just a runner.

In the NBA's MVP selection rules, the role of fans is very small and can almost be ignored.

Although the league hypocritically created a fan voting channel, it was just a way to deceive attention and gain traffic.

The ones who really played a decisive role were the beautiful country and the one hundred basketball-related reporters from the Maple Leaf Country.

Reporters in Maple Leaf Country have great voting rights, which is an important reason why Nash was able to win the MVP.

In fact, these basketball reporters are closely related to the league players. Many reporters are even personal friends of the players, and the players are even their financial backers.

Currently in the league's regular season MVP rankings, the first place is Rose, the second place is James, the third place is Durant, the fourth place is Duncan, the fifth place is Howard, the sixth place is Wade, and the seventh place is

The first name is Kobe, and the eighth is Bai Yi.

Except for Bai Yi, everyone else is a long-established star.

Number one, Rose is the core of the Bulls and is very popular among Chicago fans and media.

The Bulls are ranked first in the Eastern Conference this season, and it is basically impossible for Chicago media people to vote for players from other teams.

Although Rose's statistics are not as good as Bai Yi's, his results are not bad either.

Second place is James. He, Wade and Dr. Wade have formed a super team. Wade and Bosh are not injured. The team's current record is second in the Eastern Conference, so it can also be selected as MVP.

It's simply outrageous.

You can imagine how popular James is, and the media that supports him are unlikely to vote for anyone else.

The same goes for Durant, Duncan and Kobe, all three of them have good records.

There is no reason for basketball media people in Ohio, San Antonio, and Los Angeles to vote for other players.

Unless you really act superior to others.

You must be far better than others, only in this way can people be convinced.

Just like Allen Iverson, who is considered to be the most valuable MVP. When Iverson won the MVP in 2001, he averaged 31 points per game.

In that era when the team averaged 70 or 80 points per game, he was too cool and fierce.

If Bai Yi wants to win the MVP and get other basketball media people outside of Minnesota to vote for him, he has to show a stronger attitude.

Averaging 44 points per game is not enough, he needs to score higher.

After all, he is a foreigner, and the league did not help him hype up how terrible it is for him to average more than 40 points per game. When the fans saw his statistics, they did not think about it.

Maybe if you average 50 points per game, everyone will be really shocked.
