The semifinals of the East and West are in full swing, there are no major international events in the same period, the NBA ratings are rising, and fans are also talking about the situation of the entire playoffs.

Warriors, Suns, Rockets, Mavericks, Cavaliers, Nets, Pistons and Bulls, who will win the championship?

Among the odds offered by bookmakers, the Mavericks are still at the top of the list, followed by the Warriors, Suns, Rockets, Pistons, Cavaliers, Nets and Bulls in the West, and the four teams in the West, which are in the top four.

The young Bulls, who do not have an All-Star, are considered the least likely team to win a championship, and if you have to find a star in the Bulls, it is a big book who averages only 5 points per game, or a star who is famous for being a blue-collar engineer.

The Warriors and Suns are in second and third place, and interestingly, before the G1 game between the Warriors and the Suns in the Western Conference semifinals, the Suns had lower odds to win the championship than the Warriors, and after losing to the Warriors in G1, the entire series was favored to win.

But in reality, the Warriors still see the Suns as a fierce opponent like never before.

Now that Byron Davis has not recovered from his injury, the Warriors lineup is not complete, and the No. 1 position often rotates between Derrick Fisher and Monta Ellis, Monta Ellis can fight fires, and it is still a little unstable to be a starter all year round, Fisher is not good at defensive speed guards, and no matter how experienced he is, it is not very useful.

After the G1 game, the two sides entered a break time, and the Warriors prepared for G2 in the training hall of the Suns' West Jersey Arena.

......

“keep moveing！”

“atch defense！ atch defense！ ”

On the sidelines, head coach Montgomery's voice was extremely loud, and the old man clapped his hands to direct the players to train in the team, and a pair of sharp eyes observed the state of the players on the field, and pointed out the players' execution mistakes at any time.

“OK！ Nice pass! ”

When Ray Allen gave Jandy an aerial relay, assistant coach Ron Adams was the first to applaud.

"Monta, keep your guard focused! Pay attention to people defending people, don't look at the ball, follow people and don't follow the ball. Montgomery's tactical board was raised to direct Monta-Ellis' run, and Monta-Ellis withdrew his wandering eyes, keeping his eyes fixed on Louis Williams, who was about to defend in front of him.

Lu Wei was very uncomfortable by Monta, he was also very fast, but he couldn't easily get rid of Monta's defense, if he had to force a shot, it was okay to take his drift jump shot easily, the problem was that the head coach didn't like his kind of wave shot, and the shooting rate was sometimes high and low, and he couldn't maintain a stable value, so when the team trained, he was single-handed.

Under the basket, sweat soaked Yang Di's back, in the hot summer, after a little exercise, he was already sweating, and the temperature in Phoenix seemed to have risen a little in the past two days.

Yang Di saw that Louis Williams made a beautiful shot to Trevor Ariza on the wing, and then the young Ariza broke through with the ball, which was also extremely fast, and walked to the basket past Danny Granger, who defended him, and Yang Di moved his footsteps slightly sideways and moved quietly.

Ariza flew to the basket, gliding in the air, and Yang Di also flew, like a huge bat with its wings outstretched.

"Smack!"

His outstretched hand pressed the ball to the rebound, and a loud sound was heard throughout the training hall, and then the basketball bounced back, just in time for Monta Ellis to be picked up by Monta Ellis, who had shrunk in.

Monta Ellis reflexively turned, threw the ball first, and then stepped out of the hot wheel-like calf, stride to follow, and the whole person charged like a whirlwind.

Louis Williams was the first to drop out and chase with Monta Ellis.

Yang Di in the backcourt pulled Ariza up, smiled and high-fived him, and then patted his chest.

"This ball is dunked directly, if you dunk, I can't cover the back defense at all, the dunk can be covered, only the front defense, the side is difficult, and the back is the most difficult."

Ariza smiled bitterly and nodded, he had no choice, Yang Di's speed of assisting in defense was too fast, when he broke through to the basket just now, he obviously observed that no one assisted in defense, but as soon as he shot, he was capped by Yang Di.

Up front, Monta Ellis forced his way through Louis Williams in the air and hit a beautiful small-angle shot that didn't even make a pull.

Louis Williams was knocked off the line by Monta and grinned on his chest after landing on the ground.

"Do you have an elbow? Why did I feel like I had been stabbed. ”

"Of course I don't have an elbow, this is the advantage of our thin people, although the impact is not particularly strong, but with the speed advantage, rush up and hit the defender, the defender will be hit by this posture of breaking the face very painfully, come a few more times, next time they will not dare to defend you."

Monta introduced his stunt in a matter-of-fact manner, leaving Lu Wei stunned.

“Defense！”

At this time, head coach Montgomery roared again, reminding the players to pay attention to defense.

......

During the semifinals of the Eastern and Western Divisions, basically every day the NBA guarantees one game, sometimes two games a day, the Rockets vs. Mavericks and Warriors vs. Suns games will not be held on the same day, generally if there are two games a day, then it will be an Eastern game and a Western game.

During the weekend, CCTV5 broadcast one game of the Warriors vs. the Suns, and the other broadcast of the Rockets vs. Mavericks.

Both the Warriors and the Rockets are away games, and of course what Chinese fans hope most is for the Warriors and Rockets to defeat their respective opponents, so as to ensure that at least one Chinese player enters the Finals.

However, because Yang Di has won the championship last year, there is no chance to break the series of Chinese records on this side.

At most, it has set a record for the most Chinese players who have entered the Western Conference semifinals at the same time, or the most Western Conference finals.

Yu Jia is responsible for the commentary of today's game, and the guest invited is Yang Di's royal dogleg Cai Nan Cai.

Cai Nan wore a pair of black-framed glasses, a straight suit, and her hair was combed brightly, more like an insurance salesman than a basketball expert, and after becoming the editor-in-chief of the "Basketball Herald", he became even more famous and became the hottest basketball commentator in China today. Of course, there are also black hims, but what is the use of black him? He won't lose a penny, he still has a lot of money.

Cai Nan said with a smile: "After the last game, Yang Di said in an interview that the Suns have the league's best home atmosphere, and he likes the fans here very much, which is very cute. ”

Yu Jia didn't understand what Cai Nan meant, and asked inquiringly, "What about the middle-aged uncle?" During a substitution in the middle, Yang Di seemed to have some small quarrels with Phoenix fans. ”

"No, no, no, at best, it's a verbal provocation, and we can take it as a vignette." Cai Nan said: "In fact, the middle-aged uncle also said in an interview after the game that Yang Di is the strongest NBA player he has ever seen, which is the craziest performance in the West Stadium for so many years. ”

"It seems different from Miami and Dallas?" Yu Jia asked stunned.

Cai Nan covered his face, thinking that Yu Jia's child was no longer saved, this is a typical pot that is not opened!

Many media in the United States now like to use the term "villain" to describe Yang Di? This seems to have become Yang Di's new nickname, and it is easier to remember than the "meteorite belt"? Yu Jia also knew that he was speechless, and quickly asked one more question, withdrawing attention and topic.

Cai Nan nodded knowingly, "Yes, that's right, Yang Di's current performance, wherever he goes, is the most feared character in other arenas, just like the villain they think." But the most annoying thing is that this villain still keeps winning, hahaha! ”

"Haha." Yu Jia also laughed, and the awkward conversation between the two came to an end, and the game started immediately.
