Chapter 828 [Poaching Target, White Radish Squat]
Yang Rui didn't win the Coach of the Year award for consecutive years, even though the Clippers won 70 games in the regular season. The alliance will deliberately pursue "balance" when selecting, and Yang Rui has too many honors, so he must divide a few.
In Yang Rui's previous life, if this award was only based on the team's record, then Popovich would have won more than three awards.
This year's winner is Popovich, and after two years of running-in, the Spurs are the top team that can win the championship again this season, with the second record in the league.
Yang Rui has been prepared for a long time, and he wants to win the best coach award again, which is much more difficult than others. Winning a second consecutive season is something that never wants to happen again, and you have to have no competitors in a single season.
Curry's MVP award ceremony will be held at the Clippers' home court in the Western Conference Finals, which can boost the team's morale.
The Nets defeated the Wizards 4-1 to advance to the Eastern Conference finals.
The Wizards did not suffer a loss on the inside, but the outside line was blown up, and Thompson, Wall, and Ariza were all prevented as blacksmiths.
Wall shot 5-of-16, 0-of-4 from three-point range and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line to finish with 12 points, five rebounds and eight assists. As the core, he didn't perform well in the entire playoffs, and the win over the Nets was by Thompson.
Wall averaged 16.3 points, 4 rebounds, 7.1 assists and 1.6 steals per game in the playoffs, shooting 36.6% from the field, 21.9% from three-point range, and only 76.5% from the free throw line.
After the game, Wall said that he would work shooting in the summer and would never hold the team back next season.
Antetokounmpo's shooting was just as bad, and if he played with Wall, Thompson, who would be a burden, would not be able to play, and was frequently caught on the perimeter. Therefore, he only played 14.7 minutes per game in the playoffs, scored 4.1 points, 3 rebounds and 1.1 assists, shot 36.6% from the field, and missed several shots from beyond the three-point line.
Brother Alphabet's regular season stats were poor, and Ariza was a substitute, averaging only 6.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game, which was good news for the Clippers.
Rudy Gay's 15-year contract expires, and he can also choose to jump out of his contract this summer and become a restricted free agent, the Clippers' small forward position will weaken, and Brother Alphabet is undoubtedly the best candidate to strengthen, and the worse his stats, the more likely he is to poach him.
Even if Brother Alphabet's data is poor, the Wizards will not let him go easily, because his potential is obvious to all, and he has the possibility of becoming an all-round playmaker like James and Durant, and even some of his talents are better than Zhan Laohan.
This monster can dunk under the basket in three steps from beyond the three-point line, and few people have been able to do it since the NBA existed.
In Yang Rui's previous life, in the 16-17 season, Brother Alphabet's five stats all ranked in the top 20 in the league, the only one in history, he was selected as the best second team, the best second defense, the top 10 MVP selection, an All-Star starter, and led the Bucks to the sixth record in the East when the team's core quarterback Middleton was seriously injured, the key is to do this, he is not yet 23 years old.
The overall strength of the Bucks is average, and if Brother Alphabet goes to a strong team as the core, it is entirely possible to become the MVP of the regular season.
As long as the Clippers can dig Brother Alphabet into the lineup, no matter whether he is the core or the second leader in the future, he will not be able to attract fans in 10-15 years, and the front line is super strong.
Even if he can't jump up after the age of 35, he has a physical advantage, because he entered the league at the age of 19, he is still developing. When the Wizards first selected Brother Alphabet, the height of the explosion was 204.5CM and the arm span was 219CM, and now he has grown to 208CM, and next season it will rise to 211CM in shoes, and the arm span will be close to 225CM, and the figure is similar to Durant.
The most perverted thing is his super big hand, the palm length has reached an exaggerated 27CM, he can easily grasp the basketball and never take off his hand, and he is particularly stable in catching the ball, he is the antonym of "butter hand".
Catching the ball is also a talent in basketball, Brother Alphabet can run all over the court as he wants, rush to grab rebounds and stage empty catches, as long as he wants, Brother Alphabet can easily transform into a big forward in the future.
Yang Rui drew a five-star on his name and listed it as a key target for this summer, and the management must do its best, because there is only one chance to poach him this summer, and it will be impossible to wait for him to grow to 211CM.
The other two series all went to tie-breaks.
The Eastern Pacers eliminated the Cavaliers 4-3, giving the Big Three an imperfect end.
Not even making it to the East, the Cavaliers management can make up their minds to rebuild.
The Cavaliers only have the Big Three left, which is much worse than Yang Rui's Heat lineup in his previous life, and the key is that the interior strength is too poor. After Valejo's reimbursement, the Cavaliers center position can be called the weakest in the league, most of the time it is played by Bosh, who is suitable for playing power forward, and the substitutes "Birdman" Anderson and Dampier are weaker and have almost no offensive power.
Battier didn't join the Cavaliers, Ray Allen left early, Mike Miller was half-useless, the Cavaliers were not strong on the outside, losing three consecutive seasons, the appeal of the Big Three was insufficient, and no outstanding players were willing to join with a base salary.
Even the other two giants of the Cavaliers have seen a significant decline in their state.
In such harsh conditions, the Cavaliers' tactics are like that carrot squat game, James fights, James fights, James fights, James fights...... (Do knights only have white turnips?) )
James fought until his leg cramped, and he could only lead the team to the seventh game, and he really tried his best.
Although the Pacers do not have big-name stars, and Paul George, who scores the most, only averages 22 points per game, he wins by scoring more points, and has a reasonable lineup and a clear division of labor.
Starting point guard Lance Stephenson received high marks for this series because he was the one who defended James a lot of the time. He deliberately touched James's face in defense, even blew on James's ears, and faked falling to the ground like being hit by a sniper rifle, almost taking the five embarrassments.
However, because the Pacers eliminated the Cavaliers, Stephenson's Thunderman move was regarded as a fun act by the fans.
The Western Conference Spurs beat the Mavericks 119-101 at home to advance. In the tie-break, the Mavericks collectively missed the game, Nowitzki shot 8-of-21, Ellis shot 3-of-11, and Paul shot 4-of-12......
Although Ray Allen scored 16 points and made four three-pointers; Backup point guard Harris shot 6 of 10, 3 of 3 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 17 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists in super high-level play, but the Mavericks still let the game lose suspense five minutes early.
Parker finished with 32 points, four rebounds and four assists on 11-of-19 shooting and 10-of-13 free throws.
Duncan was not relentless at critical moments, shooting 7-of-8 from the field and 1-of-2 from the free-throw line, scoring 15 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks. His stats are mediocre, but he has a lot of effect against Nowitzki.
Ginobili shot 5-of-7, 2-of-3 from three-point range and 8-of-9 from the free-throw line to finish with 20 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 steals.
The "GDP combination" broke out en masse, and there were not a few times in the whole season, and Spurs fans were excited to death, and the support rate of Spurs to win the championship rose a lot.
Experts predict that the Western Conference Finals or the Clippers have more hope of qualifying, but the Spurs, who have more veterans, are also very popular, and this time the Western Conference Finals are completely heated by the league.
In Yang Rui's previous life, the Spurs easily defeated the Heat to win the championship this season, and his strength was very strong, and he would not take it lightly, so he only let the players start training on one day off, and the intensity was not high, mainly for the outside players to practice three-point shooting.
If Griffin shoots outside the three-point line, Yang Rui is confident that he can easily take out the Spurs, but unfortunately Griffin can't, so he will have to work on other aspects.
The Spurs' positional defense is outstanding, and if the Clippers want to win, they must play at a faster pace, and Yang Rui is ready.
