In the 03-04 season, what everyone didn't expect was that the Detroit Pistons, which were almost civilian legions, actually defeated the Los Angeles Lakers composed of the four kings with a huge score of 4:1 on the stage of the finals. And at the end of that year's finals, many fans were discussing who would win the FMVP. In the end, the little-known Chauncey Billups won the trophy, so why did Billups get the FMVP?The performance of the other four is worse in **?
1.Big blue-collar role, Tianzun data is average.
First of all, let's take a look at the Wallace brothers on the Pistons interior line at that time, as the only All-Star player on the Pistons during that period, Ben Wallace has won 2 DPOY trophies, 2 times selected to the All-NBA Second Team, 3 times selected to the All-NBA First Defensive Team, in addition to having 2 rebounding kings and 1 block king titles, and Big Ben is indeed one of the keys to the team's victory, he averaged 10 per game in the Finals that year8 points, 136 rebounds, 14 assists, 18 steals and 1 block, his excellent ability to protect the rim and protect rebounds, as much as possible to reduce Shaquille O'Neal's threat on the inside, in fact, that year's FMVP can also be considered for Big Ben. But in the history of the NBA, blue-collar players have never been popular, they are more used as supporting roles, so Big Ben failed to win the FMVP.
And the other Wallace brothers, "Roaring Heavenly Venerable" Rashid Wallace, after coming to the Pistons, also obeyed the request of coach Larry Brown and began to sacrifice for the team, he spent more of his physical strength on defense, especially the top defense of O'Neal and Karl Malone, sharing a lot of defensive pressure for Big Ben. And on the offensive end, Wallace, who is still in his prime, can still use his excellent mid-range shooting to help the team solve problems at critical moments. However, his stats are only 13 points, 78 rebounds, 14 assists and 1With 6 blocks, Rashid Wallace's stats are more average than Big Ben's, so the two brothers are also not candidates to get the FMVP.

2.Hamilton is the main attacker, and the little prince is the main defense.
Of course, there were also some fans at the time who complained about Richard Hamilton, after all, as the team's main scoring point, he can contribute 214 points, 5With 2 rebounds and 4 assists, he scored a team-high existence. In particular, his terrifying physical fitness made Kobe, who was already among the top defenders at that time, feel huge defensive pressure. However, Hamilton's fly in the ointment is that his overall efficiency is average, shooting just 40 per game2%, and his main task is to score, especially considering that he averages a team-high 46 times, so it is not difficult to understand why the FMVP was not given to him, after all, Hamilton became the team's leading scorer, relying on the team's tactical system for him, and his overall performance is indeed not as good as Billups.
And "The Little Prince" TayXia Ann Prince failed to get the FMVP, and the reason is very similar to Big Ben, that is, he has always done blue-collar work. Averaged 10 points per game, 68 rebounds, 2 assists, 1Eight steals, which was Prince's Finals statistic that year, was extremely ordinary, and his shooting percentage was only 389%, and on the offensive end, it is almost difficult to form enough threats, except for the good air cuts. Of course, it is undeniable that Prince incarnated as the "Kobe Terminator" that year, and gave Kobe Bryant huge defensive pressure in the 5 games of the Finals, the most obvious being that Kobe Bryant averaged 22 per game this yearBehind the 6 points, is just 381% shooting percentage and 17He shot 4% from three-point range and also had 3 turnovers6 times, the team was able to win the championship, which is inseparable from the selfless dedication of the little prince.
3.Dominating the team system, Billups was efficiently elected FMVP.
Finally, let's analyze why, FMVP will be given to Chauncey Billups. Averaged 21 points per game, 32 rebounds, 52 assists and 12 steals, this statistic looks at the entire history of the NBA, it is the existence of the weakest FMVP that can compete for it, but Billups's role on the court is exactly what the data cannot reflect. The team's methodical execution of the tactical play relied on Billups to command correctly on the court, and Billups not only connected the team perfectly, but he was also extremely offensive himself, shooting 50 from the field and shooting from three-point range9% and 471%, and the three-point shooting rate has entered the "180" club, which is extremely efficient. In addition, on the defensive end, he also restrained the aging Gary Payton, cutting off the Lakers' internal and external transmission. The importance of Billups to this Pistons is most intuitively manifested in the 08-09 season, after he and Allen Iverson swapped owners, the Pistons have been in a slump since then, and the Nuggets immediately reached the Western Conference Finals after getting Billups, which is Billups' precious value and the biggest reason why he can get FMVP.
