As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of cheers at the scene.

That's from a Nets fan.

Durant is so real!

After all, this is the home court of the Warriors. Tatum took care of the emotions of the Warriors fans and did not mention the 73 wins, but Durant did!

Moreover, Durant didn't even hint and directly named Green!

As expected of you!

Although this is a bit inappropriate, I have to say that Nets fans were delighted when they heard it!

With a big mouth like Green, we can't give him face!

Durant's words directly nailed Green to the pillar of shame, and also announced the end of the war of words between the two.

Facts have proved that no matter how good your mouth is, if you can't win the ball, you will end up being a joke.

O'Neill finally came to Lin Ying.

"Actually, I don't want to interview you because you already have as many championships as me."

Before the interview, O'Neal gave Nets fans a wave of excitement.

The output method of rainbow fart is different, and the effect is completely different.

Of course, Lin Ying would not miss such an opportunity. After signaling O'Neal to hand over the topic, he continued:

"You should interview me because next year I'm going to pass you."

O'Neal's expression widened in an exaggerated way, and the show was full of effect.

There were constant whistles at the scene.

It would be a pity if these two don't team up to do cross talk.

At this time, the FMVP voting results from the media over there have come out, and the envelope containing the results has been delivered to Tatum.

"Who do you think will be fmvp?"

O'Neill then asked.

Lin Ying attended the award ceremony three times in four years and was really running out of words, so O'Neal skipped the regular questions.

"I hope it's Kevin."

Because the results are out, nothing he says now will affect the final results.

Durant made a lot of sacrifices in the first year he came to the Nets. He forced himself to get MVP in the All-Star Game and wanted FMVP in the Finals.

But even so, Durant's statistics in the finals are still very impressive.

After 5 games, he averaged 29.2 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists per game, with three shooting percentages of 52.6%/92%/41%, completing the 180 club.

Except for his misfired half-time performance in the third game, his performance throughout the series can be described as perfect.

Lin Ying's hope will most likely come true.

O'Neal didn't say anything, nodded and handed the stage back to Tatum.

Everyone at the scene also looked at Tatum.

They are also curious about who will be the final fmvp.

Durant's performance was very impressive, and Lin Ying did not lose either!

After 5 games, Lin Ying averaged 28 points, 10.2 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 58%/90%/40.1%. He also entered the 180 club.

It's really difficult to define who performed better.

Tatum opened the envelope containing the selection results, and he was obviously stunned.

This was different from Stern's deliberately pretending to be surprised. He was really stunned.

Moreover, he did not announce the results immediately, but asked some questions to the vice president on the side. In the end, he invited representatives from 11 media companies to come.

This series of operations stunned everyone at the scene.

Even Lin Ying looked suspicious.

He is the one who stands on the podium the most frequently in the past few years, and with his status as a time traveler, he is well-informed.

But even so, this is the first time I have seen the CEO react like this.

Could it be that this is giving FMVP to Curry?

This is impossible.

Giving it to Jokic would be even more nonsense.

The only possibility is...sharing?

Lin Ying's mind was still spinning fast.

The only situation he could think of was this.

Because there has never been a situation of FMVP sharing in NBA history.

The reason is very simple, the value of FMVP is very close to that of regular season MVP, and for such a valuable award, a best candidate must be selected.

And from another perspective, one thing that makes FMVP more demanding than MVP is that if there is sharing, it means that a team has two FMVPs. This makes people who won FMVP in the past think, and also makes those who compete for the championship in the future think. What does the team do?

This is also the reason why it was selected by 11, an odd number of media outlets.

Because a team usually only has two players at most participating in the competition, there will always be one more player.

So this situation is theoretically possible, but it should not happen.

So Tatum's reaction is just because the result is Durant, so he is questioning the accuracy?

This is possible.

Although Lin Ying said he hoped it would be Durant, it would be like a sudden year when the Bulls won the FMVP and gave it to Pippen instead of Jordan, which would cause huge controversy.

In the end, it seemed that the result was finally reached through discussion. Tatum finally picked up the envelope again and announced the final result.

"The recipient of the 2016 NBA Bill Russell Trophy is...Kevin Durant."

When this result came out, some people were happy and some were confused.

But before their emotions fully burst out, Tatum continued to speak,

"And Lin Ying, they both got 5 votes."

As soon as this result came out, the excitement on the scene became even louder.

Because what Lin Ying thinks about, some fans also think about it.

Is fmvp really shared?!

Tatum also anticipated the reaction at the scene, so he quickly followed up and explained.

"This is an unprecedented situation in history, and we decided to abide by this outcome after discussions."

There are 11 votes, 5 for Lin Ying, 5 for Durant, and the remaining one is for Curry.

Even if you vote again, the result will still be the same.

With a vote of this importance, no one will change their mind.

So is there a solution?

Of course there is.

A second round of voting will be held, and the candidates can only be Lin Ying and Durant who had the highest number of votes in the first round.

It is foreseeable that this will be a rule that will be supplemented in the future, but it does not apply to the current rules.

In other words, you can't patch it on the spot just because there is a bug in the existing rules. This is unreasonable.

The "Arenas Clause", "Big Z Clause", etc. are all the same. They all apply to the next person instead of the party involved.

After Tatum finished explaining, the excitement at the scene eventually turned into cheers.

Shared FMVP is indeed unprecedented, but there have been more incredible losing FMVPs before!

And don’t say it was from ancient times.

The league has been patching loopholes in the rules as it develops.

Because of the emergence of fmvp for the losing side, rules were introduced later that stipulated that the game could not be given to the losing side.

Similarly, only if sharing has occurred, this situation can be avoided in the future.

Jerry West was not deprived of his FMVP, so why were Lin Ying and Durant deprived of their FMVP on the spot?

If you have to blame, you can only blame the person who voted for Curry!

But Curry scored 11 three-pointers in a single game in G2, and his performance in the entire series was in line with the definition of MVP to a certain extent.

Amidst the cheers, Lin Ying and Durant were pushed to the front by the crowd.

The two looked at each other, but in the end they both nodded in agreement.
