"The Youngest Player of the Month in History"
The Arican Cable Sports Network was the first to release this news.
Yesterday, rumors began circulating about the young prodigy who is a week away from turning 19 and potentially winning the Player of the Month award in his rookie season.
This morning, after receiving early information from the NBA, the Arican Cable TV Station, which owns the New York Knicks, announced it first.
Initially, so were skeptical because the NBA had not officially announced the award yet.
January 1, 1996, the new year has arrived.
At 9 a.m. on the first day of the new year, during the routine press conference, the NBA officials invited nurous Chinese and Asian dia outlets, and David Stern personally announced: Lakers rookie power forward Zhang Hao, has won the Player of the Month and Rookie of the Month for December 1995!
Jordan worked hard to lead the Bulls to a 7-ga winning streak, ending December with a record of 27 wins and 5 losses, the best in the league.
He averaged 31.8 points over 32 gas, scored over 50 points three tis... although he lost two gas, he still scored 50 , and his personal efficiency and team contribution were extrely strong. His player efficiency rating reached 30.3, and when he was on the court, the Bulls scored 116.4 points per 100 possessions and allowed only 97.5 points, unmatched by anyone.
However, despite this record and personal performance, Jordan has gone two consecutive months without winning Player of the Month!
In November, Anfernee Hardaway snatched the Player of the Month award away from him, and on the first day of the new year, Jordan, who perford best in the league this year, faced another setback...
The key is that both tis Jordan missed out on Player of the Month were directly related to Zhang Hao.
In November, Jordan and Anfernee Hardaway had equally strong performances. In terms of record, before the final ga in November, the Bulls led the Magic by half a ga, but since they lost to the Magic, either could have won.
In this intense situation, Zhang Hao dashed Jordan’s hopes of winning the November Player of the Month award by delivering a ga-winning shot against Jordan in his final ga before leaving the Brooklyn Nets...
In December, although the Bulls’ record was better, Zhang Hao beca famous after scoring over 40 against the Bulls and once again delivering a ga-winning shot against Jordan.
But before the award was announced, many still believed Jordan should be the Player of the Month for December, with a better record and personal performance. Although he lost to the Lakers once, Jordan had a greater chance of winning the award.
So dia pointed out that the league giving the Player of the Month award to Zhang Hao, a rookie, was partly to hype him up.
However, the awards have been announced, and it is a confird fact!
Zhang Hao has beco the latest rookie since Larry Bird to win the Player of the Month award in his rookie season!
In the history of the NBA, only Zhang Hao and Larry Bird have won the Player of the Month award in their rookie seasons!
Recently, Zhang Hao’s na has been appearing in various newspapers, whether in praise or criticism, and television stations often report news about him.
With this win, he has risen to complete stardom!
The nickna "Fucker-sky" also began to spread widely.
Reporters quickly reached Pacers GM Larry Bird, who said in an interview: "That’s a Lakers player, the Celtics had a player who won Player of the Month in his rookie season, the Lakers should have one too. I’ve waited many years, even retired, and now, he has co."
This comnt is perceived as Larry Bird subtly mocking that the Magician didn’t win Player of the Month in his rookie season.
Another new topic erged—whether Zhang Hao would beco the best rookie in Lakers history?
...
"It’s an honor to receive this award. I know I’m definitely not the best player in the league yet, but I will work towards that goal and hope to beco stronger."
"Who to thank? First, of course, the fans—they showed their passion from the start, and I strive to hear their cheers. And naturally, my teammates are the ones who truly help ; I really appreciate them passing the ball to , or I wouldn’t score so high."
"Compared to Bird? No, no, I’m still far off. You should compare soone else to him, soone from our team, nad Elvin Johnson, whom I think you know—he’s the best player in NBA history."
"I’m just playing each ga well, that’s all. I’m not thinking too much about it. I don’t even know how I won Player of the Month..."
"Fucker-sky... This nickna is quite interesting, but I don’t really like it, as if it’s mocking for being single..."
"Will Jordan beco the first MVP who never wins Player of the Month? I don’t know if it will happen, but I’d like to see it."
"Is the league hyping up? Is my performance bad? Is our team record bad?"
"Yes, what I an is exactly what you’re thinking; it’s what I deserve."
"I..."
The first part of Zhang Hao’s interview went smoothly and t the news officer’s expectations, leaving them satisfied.
But for so reason, Zhang Hao’s responses started gradually revealing his true character towards the end... prompting the news officer to abruptly end the interview.
The news officer was left in despair!
After returning to the training ground, Zhang Hao felt even more hopeless. Yesterday, after receiving Player of the Week, he was interviewed by Xinhuanet, and although the interview process was not important, he learned from Xu Jicheng that his dostic nickna, Brother Ritian, had really spread to the United States.
