NBA draft has always been the highlight of the offseason, and the No. 1 pick has also received a lot of attention. There was even a situation where the team was selected to get the No. 1 pick, just to choose the ideal team cornerstone. Since the beginning of the new century, the champions have their own merits. Some have been made the strongest champions, and naturally there are also the most watery champions. Among them, historical-level stars have also appeared. There are also people who feel regretful when talking about them. Not too much. So, in terms of comprehensive achievements and abilities, who are the top five champions in the new century? Today, let the editor discuss it with everyone.
First place: LeBron James
accompanied by former NBA president David Stern announced: "With the first pick in the 2003 NBA draft the Cleveland Cavaliers select LeBron James!" LeBron James James was elected the 2003 draft pick. 2003 was the year when Jordan announced his retirement. It was the year when James entered the league and was selected as the champion. It seemed like a relay. James took over Jordan's baton and started his NBA journey.
In fact, he has been in high school for a long time. James has already gained fame in the United States. He was known as the "America's No. 1 High School Student". Many brands have also handed him olive branches. Reebok, Nike, and Adidas competed. Want to sign him, but in the end Nike reached an agreement with James for 7 years and $77 million. From the perspective of God, Nike’s vision is still vicious. After that, Nike and James signed a lifetime contract. Someone estimated that the total amount could get 1 billion US dollars. James said: “This is not a simple sponsorship contract, this is a partnership between the two parties. The way."
After entering the league, James was put in the spotlight. People have always held the highest expectations for him. It seems that with his ability, people think he can do better. In the 2006-07 season, James, who was only 23 years old, led the Cavaliers to advance to the finals for the first time. Although they were defeated by the Spurs, people saw hope from this young man. In the 7 years of the Cavaliers, James fought hard to no avail, and finally chose to join the Heat.When the Heat was his peak, the Big Three with his good friends Wade and Bosh won two championships in four years and achieved many achievements. Then he returned to the Cavaliers to help his hometown team win the first sports championship in 52 years. James’ career has won 4 MVPs, 4 championships, 4 FMVPs, 16 All-Star selections, 13 All-Star team selections, and a series of scoring records. I won’t go into details here. Achievements have destined James to be a historical star. Although he is often the subject of controversy among fans, we cannot deny his achievements.
Because James was selected into the NBA when he was a high school, and he was selected by the team to cultivate his core. The youngest scoring records in the current series are all taken by James. If the league does not allow high school students to participate in the draft, then I believe this The record will be kept. Since his debut, James has also played for 17 seasons, and he has changed from a young boy to the current "three-year-old man". People say that he is "debut is the peak, more than ten years at the top", it seems that it is difficult to see the traces of the years in him, and he has always maintained a strong competitive state.
He led the team to the Finals for eight consecutive years. Some fans even said with a smile that this pair of Eastern teams was a nightmare. Eight years of "anti-Zhan" made them feel deep despair, maybe this is just The fans are joking, but it also reflects James' ability from the side. James has an excellent golfer, the top breakthrough ability and finishing ability in the league. His dunk can also be called a violent aesthetic. He has a very accurate prediction of the situation on the court and is an all-round small forward. . Now that James is mentioned, the feeling of the fans is that there is no such thing as flying away, instead of being mature and stable.
James was elected the strongest champion in the new century. This is no problem. Regardless of personal prejudice, it is well-deserved to discuss him with hard stuff. Judging from the accumulation of data, he is the first player in NBA history who is expected to reach 40,000 points + 10,000 rebounds + 10,000 assists. Once this achievement is achieved, it will be a strong mark in the history of NBA; from honorary achievements Looking at it, there are 4 regular season MVPs, 4 championships, and 13 best team teams (currently). Of course, there are still some achievements that are not listed.Since he has not retired, the fans certainly hope that he can accumulate more honor. Therefore, whether in terms of data or honor, James is the strongest champion in the new century.
