LeBron Jas beca the guest of the eighth episode of "Qin’s Sports Talk."
Initially, Jas, who received the invitation from Qin Yue, intended to decline by saying he was busy leading his team in the playoffs.
But the overwhelming popularity of "Qin’s Sports Talk," along with the newly announced NBA award results, made Jas realize that appearing on this show hosted by his so-called brother was the perfect opportunity to express his grievances.
"Brown, what do you think about Kobe winning the regular season MVP by a narrow margin?"
"Oh..." After pretending to contemplate for a few seconds, Jas said, "Maybe the judges think the Lakers have a better record, but you know, the competition in the East has been unprecedentedly fierce in recent years. The Eastern Conference right now is likely in its most competitive era."
Indeed, the competition in the East has been fierce in recent years.
However, Qin Yue did not agree with Jas’ statent that the East is in its most competitive era.
But since "Qin’s Sports Talk" is a show where opinions can be freely expressed, even if Jas’ purpose in expressing this viewpoint is just to prove he is more deserving of the MVP than Kobe, Qin Yue would only brush it off with a smile.
After all, who told Kobe to refuse to be a guest on "Qin’s Sports Talk"?
"Brown, Mike Brown was selected as Coach of the Year again this year. How do you think working with such a great coach has helped your career?"
"He’s the kind of coach who won’t let you play if you don’t defend. He’s made us one of the strongest defensive teams in the league," Jas replied. "This gives us a chance to win every night. Sotis our offense might not be great, but defense always keeps us in the ga."
No surprise, it’s Jas—at that mont, Qin Yue thought to himself.
Although on the surface, Jas seed to be praising Mike Brown enthusiastically.
But Qin Yue knew better than anyone that Jas was telling people that his selection to the All-Defensive First Team this year was well-deserved.
"Brown, in the next round, you’ll face the Orlando Magic with the Defensive Player of the Year. What are your thoughts?"
"Dwight Howard is undoubtedly in his pri," Jas said. "The Magic is an extrely mature team. In comparison, I think we still have a lot of areas to improve."
Jas’ tactful response left Qin Yue deeply impressed during the recording of this episode.
Qin Yue knew very well that Jas, in his response, not only showed the world his usual humility but also indirectly sent a signal to the fans.
If the Cavaliers ultimately lose to the Magic in the Eastern Conference semifinals...
It won’t be because he didn’t play well enough, but because peak Howard led the full-strength Magic to shalessly ambush him—the young king in need of leveling up and the Cavaliers, who still need ti to grow.
After the show aired, the eighth episode of "Qin’s Sports Talk" continued to have astonishing views on YouTube.
And this...
Also allowed Jas, who chose to participate in the recording, to once again feel the omnipresent energy of Qin Yue and the importance of the internet for their generation of stars.
Moreover, as Qin Yue eloquently discussed the NBA award selection results...
Jas found that Qin Yue even broke the traditional sports news interviews, eliminating the need for players to express their views through major dia outlets.
In Jas’ view, this would undoubtedly be the "privilege" of their generation of players.
"New York fans believe the explosive Russell Westbrook deserves the Rookie of the Year trophy more than Derrick Rose?"
Qin Yue responded to a fan question in the latter part of the show: "You know, New York is one of my favorite cities, but I have to say sothing fair for Derrick. Since he and the Bulls made it to the playoffs, the Rookie of the Year trophy should rightfully go to Derrick."
After a slight pause, Qin Yue turned to Jas and said, "Brown, you agree with this, don’t you?"
Jas: "..."
At this mont, Jas found it really difficult to answer Qin Yue’s question.
Because if he said yes, he couldn’t explain his competition with Anthony back then.
Fortunately, Qin Yue didn’t make it difficult for Jas.
But instead, continued to answer the next question about how to view Mo Williams being nad Most Improved Player: "Brown, how do you view your little brother?"
"He’s outstanding, always daring and fighting on the court," Jas comnted. "He’s one of the best guards I’ve ever worked with."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yue said, "You all heard, right? Brown said, Mo Williams is a super guard on par with Allen Iverson."
"..."
"Celtics fans believe Jason Terry took the Sixth Man of the Year award that rightfully belonged to Manu Ginobili. Brown, as the player who had the MVP trophy taken by Kobe, what do you think of this matter?"
"..."
"You all see, silence is the best response to the league’s selection results."
"..."
No doubt, although by participating in "Qin’s Sports Talk," Jas had deeply felt the charm of the internet...
But this is definitely his last ti on this show.
And aside from the award selection results discussed by Qin Yue on the show, the selections for the 08/09 season’s All-NBA Team and All-Defensive Team are as follows:
All-NBA First Team: Dwight Howard, Nowitzki, Jas, Kobe, Paul.
All-NBA Second Team: Yao Ming, Duncan, Anthony, Wade, Deron.
