Chapter 380 [East King Xike]
The Nets were swept out, and the media that hated Wang Jun were happy, waiting to see him joke in the interview.
The coaches of both sides commented on the game first.
Stan? Van Gundy is still very low-key, and he didn't swear that he would kill his opponent in the Eastern Conference Finals, but said that he would fight every game and try to win.
Lawrence attributed the loss to a gap in strength on the interior and praised several outside players.
Even if Kidd has been playing soy sauce in this series, he can't prevent Wade and can't beat Damon Jones, Lawrence has not criticized. He can't do the thing of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, and Kidd has done a lot for the Nets in recent years.
The players were also interviewed, and several members of the Nets team were depressed, only Wang Jun still had something to say.
The reporter asked: "The Nets were eliminated, and you lost to Wade in the same grade, do you have any feelings?" β
Wang Jun said it in one breath. "Next time I'll try to win against him, I don't think I'm worse than him. Do you think the Heat are Wade's one-man team? Do you think O'Neal and Eddie Jones are easy to defend? Or do you think Damon Jones isn't a good pitcher, or are Alonzo, Doolin and Rasubatar's benches just adding? They were all 22 rookies in the first round, and we just lost to the lineup. β
22nd in the first round, of course, refers to Zolan? PraniΔ, the rookie used by the Nets to trade for Wang Jun.
With this person as an example, the reporter didn't know how to gloat.
Wang Jun is a second-round rookie, and the only one who suppressed him in the class of 2003 was Wade, how can he be considered a failure in this situation? It's obviously too successful! What if the Nets are swept?
Wang Jun's words also show one thing, it is not that the Nets are playing badly, but that the Heat lineup is too strong.
One O'Neill will work. Let's see what the Lakers are like without O'Neal.
Another reporter asked, "Are you restricting free agents this summer, do you want to stay with the Nets or go to another team?" β
"I haven't thought about it yet. I just want to relax, I'm so tired. β
The next day. While congratulating the Heat, O'Neal and Wade, many media did not forget to hit Wang Jun, saying that he was not a superstar and could not stand up to save the team at a critical moment.
ABC Radio sarcastically ridiculed Wang Jun for not being like an outside line at all, he knew how to brush data, so he grabbed so many rebounds, most of which were backcourt rebounds. Because of him, Kidd, Jefferson, and Carter's rebounding stats have all dropped.
The Nets are three in charge of the fast break. If they all actively grab rebounds in the backcourt, it will really affect the tactics of the whole team. But when the media said this, there are really many fake fans who take it seriously, and the number of "anti-kings" has increased a lot.
Entering the playoffs, the xenophobia of the United States has become more and more obvious.
This is all stimulated by the Dream Team's successive defeats on the international stage, and the United States, regardless of the Basketball Association or the media, wants to regain its hegemony in world basketball as soon as possible.
Some fans believe that the NBA is not far behind the world basketball ratio, at least in terms of tactics. has been the eldest brother for many years, and was suddenly cleaned up by the younger brother. It definitely doesn't taste good.
It just so happened that Wang Jun was the hottest and most topical among the international players, and he was simply the representative of the international players, so the media naturally fired at him.
on this. Chinese fans don't care.
Wang Jun made it to the second round with obvious flaws in the team's internal lineup, and he is better than the stars who went out in the regular season, right?
In China, the phrase "East King Xike" has been proposed. The most controversial person in the east is Wang Jun. In the west, it's Kobe.
In addition to fighting, Wang Jun hurt people. He is also open-mouthed and especially dares to speak. I don't like to suffer losses, and I am a new generation of big mouths.
Bryant's controversy is to get rid of O'Neal, the Eagle County incident, leading the Lakers to a lottery pick, and so on.
Although both of them are out, what they have done this season has made the fans feel very exciting.
Wang Jun is on vacation, his two younger sisters still have to take exams, and he goes to school every day, so he can live a two-person world with Abby at home.
At the end of the NBA, Abby was given two months off for her outstanding work, and other veteran reporters would be in charge of covering the Eastern and Western finals.
The Pacers defeated the Pistons 4-2 to advance to the finals.
Artest was the key to the matchup, dominating against Prince and deserving of last season's Defensive Player of the Year.
Prince is a good defender for Kobe's kind of technical swingman, relying on excellent anticipation to prevent breakouts and relying on his height and reach to interfere with shots. Artest belongs to the brute type, playing with the body, and technique is secondary.
Artest is more intimidating on the defensive end, he is mainly defending Hamilton, the Pistons coaching staff are worried about the "scalpel" being injured, and after the screen, Artai's misplaced defense of the two interior lines is even more courageous.
Whether it is Ben Wallace or Rasheed Wallace, it is difficult to take advantage of Artey, he is not afraid of strength, and he will foul if he can't prevent it when he hits the basket.
The Pacers have been successful on the perimeter, with players all good at jamming shots, and all five starters are tall.
The Pacers don't play point guard much, and even Tinsley, who played well in the regular season, didn't play much. Jean Stephen? Jackson made a cameo appearance at point guard, and veteran Miller was no longer a defensive weakness.
And Tinsley, veteran Anthony? Johnson is also over 190cm tall, slightly inferior in offense, and not a weakness on the defensive end.
The two teams fought defensively, and the Pacers' offense was slightly better, grinding the Pistons to death in six games.
Coach Larry? Brown, as he did last season, used the same two sets of people back and forth, the bench players had almost no effect, and the eight-man rotation was extremely ugly.
Arroyo, the "wonder boy" exchanged by the Pistons in the middle of the game, was magically absent, and was used by Brown to average 8 minutes per game and 2.1 points of waste.
Hunter had 3.8 points and 1.6 assists in the playoffs, shooting 31.8% from the field, and the role was negligible.
The only efficient bench was McDyce, averaging 8 points and 6 rebounds per game.
After the game, the Pistons have indicated that they will not fight Larry? Brown renews his contract.
Brown sees himself as underpaid, at odds with the top and unhappy with the team's trade.
Pistons owner Bill? Davidson thinks Brown's salary is too high, and he has eliminated several newcomers from the Pistons in two years, and has not played a record corresponding to his fame.
Brown also had too close contacts with Cavaliers executive Danferry and Knicks management, which even affected the team's preparations, which completely angered Davidson, and the rift was really difficult to repair.
Brown's contract expires just in the summer, so how can the Pistons still extend his contract?
The Eastern Conference Finals will be played between the Heat and the Pacers.
The second round of the West also decided the winners.
The Suns defeated the SuperSonics 4-1 with run-and-gun tactics.
The supersonic lack of interior strong offense, unable to grasp the weakness of the Suns' poor interior defense, is not inferior to the three-point Suns SuperSonic, and it is a fluke to win one game.
Bull and horse battle, Spurs advanced 4-2.
The Spurs are about to become the nevericks' nemesis. In the 2001 Western Conference semifinals, the Mavericks were eliminated by the Spurs in five games. In the 2003 Western Conference Finals, Nowitzki played with an injury and scored 25.3 points and 11.3 rebounds, but he still couldn't escape the doom of being eliminated.
This time, the Spurs' "GDP combination" did not give the Mavericks a chance, and the play was very stable. Nowitzki's attack is not inferior to Duncan's, his defense is much worse, and his leadership ability is worse after all.
The Suns are the biggest favorites to win the championship this season, and whether they can go dark to the end will have to pass the Spurs. (To be continued.) )
