Chapter 879: Revenge 2.0
The day after Fei Bruise's visit. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Wachovia Center Arena.
The Eastern Conference Finals Series is about to begin.
"Welcome to ESPN Sports, where today we bring you the first game of the NBA Playoffs Eastern Conference Finals. The two teams against each other are the Philadelphia 76ers and the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the two teams can meet in the Eastern Conference Finals, which can be said to be deserved! β
The opening words were uttered by our old acquaintances, but they hardly appear in the book.
Jeff Van Gundy, one of Yao Ming's mentors in the NBA, was once nicknamed Van Bald by domestic fans. There are even a considerable number of fans, when Van Gundy coached Houston, kept complaining about Van Gundy's rigid tactics, not giving Yao Ming enough opportunities to perform and shoot, etc.
But in retrospect, compared to the other coaches of the Rockets, Van Gundy's strategy, and the way he used Yao Ming, should have been quite reasonable for the Little Giants.
With Yao Ming as the central pillar of defense, Yao Ming's height and defensive deterrence on the inside are used to build the team's defensive system. Focusing on slow offense, reducing offensive and defensive rounds as much as possible, and reducing Yao Ming's back-and-forth running wear and tear at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.
On the offensive end, let the outside players dominate the offense as much as possible, Yao Ming as the offensive initiation point for about a third of the offensive rounds, using Yao Ming's containment on one side to help the Rockets open up space from the other side.
Maddie on the outside can be maximized.
In this way, Yao Ming's data did not reach the level of an ancient divine beast, but it was very helpful to protect Yao Ming's body.
People are always stupid enough to lose to know how to cherish, don't they?
"Yes! If it weren't for my work, I would have bought a ticket to watch the game! β
Sitting next to Van Gundy is Bill Walton, one of the NBA's top 50 superstars.
Wharton's playing career, despite being plagued by injuries, has not really played to his best. But in his short glory days, the super power he showed and the way he played beyond the times were impressive enough.
Nowadays, there are still many legends about Wharton, it is said that when he was a player, he was an extremely arrogant person, sometimes even the coach's words were not good, just to do what he wanted.
But after retiring, Wharton switched careers to become a TV commentator, the kind of spicy satire, carefully thought about but thought-provoking style. It just complements Van Gundy's humor and no taboos.
This pair can be said to be the ace combination of ESPN.
Today, these two guys will come to the scene to comment, and I have to say that the level of attention paid by ESPN to this round of the series is indeed high enough.
"Speaking of which, it's actually a little embarrassing, ahem......"
Van Gundy remembered the player power list that ESPN briefly conducted before the start of this season, which once put Chen Mu in an overly underrated position. As a result, Chen Mu used his wonderful performance again and again to slap ESPN's face.
Later, under the criticism of fans, this grand plan of ESPN had to be temporarily stopped, announcing an indefinite shutdown and replanning, and it is difficult to say when it will be released again.
And everything that happened afterwards also proves that ESPN is still alert enough. Chen Mu, who was not really considered to be the first candidate in the league at the beginning of the season, almost monopolized the honor in the second half of the season, did not give ESPN any face at all, and undoubtedly got the historical horror data.
By the way, the Philadelphia 76ers also won another league No. 1 record, and Chen Mu was re-elected MVP.
Now Van Gundy is embarrassed, naturally referring to the matter of the player power list.
"Actually, you don't have to be too embarrassed!"
Bill Walton was very good, and said with a smile: "If the players really perform as our experts, reporters and commentators think, moving forward or backward step by step, there is no surprise." So what else would the NBA mean? β
"Just because a team has a 72-win record in the regular season that surpasses Jordan doesn't mean they can win a championship. Isn't this uncertainty the most moving part of sports competitions? β
"It's like yesterday's game, the first game of the Western Conference Finals. It can also be said to be unexpected and reasonable! β
Van Gundy nodded: "No one thought that the Los Angeles Lakers would be at home and be bombarded by the Phoenix Suns by 125 points in a single game." Steve Nash averaged only 13.8 points and 8.6 assists per game in the playoffs before, and I can't help Steve fans, I really think that Nash is on the verge of retirement. β
"But yesterday, tsk, 27 points and 14 assists didn't fully reflect Nash's dominance on the court. His individual performances are really exciting, all kinds of heads-up, long-range shots, fast breaks, mounted archery, the iconic back-and-back jumper to the middle of the line, wonderful pass assists, open catches, open three-point passes, and take over the game at critical moments......"
Before the game started, the first game of yesterday's Western Conference Finals appeared on the screen. The Phoenix Suns were all on the roof and played a furious offensive storm under the leadership of Nash.
Howard dominated Bynum as always (of course, Bynum's own individual performance was still improved from the previous year, but the gap between him and Howard was still huge), and Gasol's face-frame offense made Gasol helpless, and various long-range shots from outside Hill and Richardson, receiving layups, dunks, and responding to passes, all completely revitalized the Suns' offense.
In Staples, the Suns scored 125 points and finally took down their long-cherished rival Lakers.
By the second half of the third quarter, the Suns had a 20-point lead. But in the fourth quarter, the Lakers, who finally woke up from Fugui's illness, began to exert their strength, Kobe Bryant's continuous individual heads-up, ultra-long-distance three-pointers, and beautiful mid-range shots after various shakes. and the triangular offense after exerting its power, continuous back crushing.
This series of wonderful performances allowed the Lakers to recover a 20-point difference in the fourth quarter, and the two teams almost returned to the same running line.
But then......
"Brush!"
Steve Nash, chasing down and shooting from distance.
"Bang!"
Hitting the ground with a long pass, Richardson flew and glided and dunked.
"Smack!"
Dwight Howard covered the sky and blocked wildly, and his head almost hit the ceiling of Staples.
Later, when Kobe Bryant made a desperate shot to narrow the gap to three points again, Nash stepped up again, and at the moment when the 24 seconds were about to expire, he made a fake fax shot and stepped back to make a three-pointer.
The flame of the Lakers' counterattack was finally extinguished.
After that, the Lakers didn't get a chance.
Kobe Bryant and the Lakers aren't going to rest on their laurels, and the Suns haven't won against the Lakers in the playoffs since 2008, when the two teams formed their new core lineups. This time, the Lakers will inevitably want to continue the glory and dignity of the past, and find a way to drag the game into their familiar rhythm. β
Van Gundy concluded: "It's all so similar to the game we're about to see. β
βgoββ76errrrrrrrrrsοΌοΌοΌβ
The fans kept shouting, and Vachovia was full of voices, Chen Mu waved to the fans while going on the court, and walked to LeBron's side, high-fived and hugged the latter.
"If you admit defeat now, count you as losing by 20 points, which is interesting enough."
Chen Mu opened his mouth to be shameless.
ββ¦β¦ I abused you two years ago, it's boring, just go through the motions this time. 4 to 2, how's that? Is it enough to take care of your face? β
LeBron showed no signs of weakness.
"I really can't argue with that. I was indeed defeated by you the year before last, and you have the reason to be arrogant. It's a pity for me, I've been depressed for two years, and I'm finally waiting for the opportunity to fight you again. If I hadn't done that, I might have vomited blood in frustration! β
LeBron was a little confused when Chen Mu said something, and asked quite vigilantly: "What's the matter?" β
βmvpγβ
Chen Mu smiled, grinned with white teeth, and then made a gesture of victory, and said, "Two, Lian Zhuang~"
ββ¦β¦β
This guy #Β₯%&......!
"Ah, by the way, if it weren't for me, there would be a good chance that both MVPs would be yours!"
β¦β¦ I'm going to beat him, no one will stop me!!
"Okay, bye-bye, I'm going to get ready to torture you."
After speaking, Chen Mu waved his hand and turned around and left.
β¦β¦ Ni Palsy!!
LeBron's nose was crooked, but when he looked back and saw the big man who was puffing up, he felt a little relieved.
"Beep!"
Players from both sides are in position, the referee's whistle blows, and the basketball is tossed high.
It's game on!
"Smack!"
In terms of height, Milicic and O'Neill are almost the same height, and in theory, Milicic is younger and should have more advantages.
But the ball was snatched away by O'Neal.
"Attack!"
Mo Williams stepped forward to grab the ball, and just as he was about to open his mouth to direct the attack, another voice sounded behind him.
Sark......?!
Xiao Mo was also stunned, and when he came to the top of the arc, a wall appeared on his side.
"Bang!"
Beautiful cover, O'Neal finished the cover and went down to the side, and made a cover for LeBron.
"Whoosh!"
At the same time that LeBron came to the high post, Xiao Mo passed the ball.
LeBron didn't hesitate at all when he got the basketball, and directly waved it with one hand.
The basketball flies to the basket.
"Smack!"
O'Neill received the ball, Milicic went up strongly, but the shark in front of him turned around, and the huge force attacked, making Milicic stumble.
My power...... Is it so unusable?
ββ¦β¦ Bang!!! β
At the beginning, O'Neill turned around and dunked!
βyesοΌβ
O'Neal, who completed the dunk, was not too excited, but pointed at LeBron in the air, and his face was ......
Full of fierce light!
This guy is going to explode.
Chen Mu saw O'Neill's situation and knew that this shark was not easy to mess with tonight. (To be continued.) )
