Chapter 410 The finals have begun!(1/2)
"The Lakers Championship!"
After the game where the Mavericks were eliminated, Su Qun's article title was straightforward, which attracted strong attention from fans.
"When the Lakers can beat the team with Kobe and Nowitzki with a score of 4-1, it means that no team can stop them from winning the championship. The Wizards cannot do it, nor the Pistons."
Su Qun really blew the Lakers in the article.
However, after watching it, the fans didn't think there was any big problem.
Because on paper, whether it is the Wizards or the Pistons, it is not much better than the Mavericks.
In fact, it is not just Su Qun, but the media and fans in the United States are also optimistic about the Lakers winning the championship.
The Lakers, this is bubbled up by breasts.
Of course, because the division finals in the East have not been completed, there is still some time before the finals begin.
Moreover, there may even be a tiebreaker in the eastern part, which will delay the game.
But for fans and the Lakers, this is what they are looking forward to seeing.
O'Neal just returned from injury, so he naturally needs to rest more.
At this moment, the league announced the final batch of awards of the season: Best Defensive and Best Team.
All-Defensive Team: Bruce Bowen, Kobe, Garnett, Duncan, Ben Wallace, Yao Ming;
The second team of the All-Defensive Team: Billups, Laga Bell, Christie, Prince, Kirilenko, O'Neal.
The best lineup has only 5 places in theory, but if the vote rate is the same, more than 5 will occur.
This has happened in both the first and second teams of defense this year.
Overall, the defensive lineup is similar to what is expected, and the only surprise is Christie.
He was also selected to the second team with his outstanding performance in the second half of the season with the Lakers.
In a sense, this is also the benefit brought by big cities.
Because this best lineup was selected by the media, if you have high exposure, the impact on people will naturally be strong.
Best lineup team: Sun Hao, Nash, Kobe, Duncan, O'Neal;
The second team of the best team: McGrady, Ray Allen, James, Garnett, Yao Ming;
The third team of the best team: Iverson, Wade, Nowitzki, Stoudemire, Ben Wallace.
Sun Hao and O'Neal were selected for the Best Team together!
Whether it is what the fans see or the final result comes out, the fans' most direct sense is: Sun Hao has brought O'Neal back to the top!
What surprised the fans was Ginobili.
He defeated all sides in the playoffs, but he didn't even make three formations in the end.
However, on the one hand, his regular season data is a bit worse than the few guards selected. On the other hand, he is also in the best lineup, and at the beginning of the century, the competition is even more valuable.
After the announcement of the All-A-Level, all the honors of the regular season this season have been confirmed.
The Lakers became the biggest winner, Sun Hao, who won the All-Star MVP and regular season MVP, was selected for the first team and the second team in the defensive team, and O'Neal, who ranked third in the MVP rankings!
For this Lakers, the only thing they lack now may be the final golden championship trophy!
The next day, the sixth game of the Eastern Conference Final was staged at Auburn Hills Palace.
After winning the Tianwang Mountain, the Pistons have already won the match point.
And they are playing at home, and many people are optimistic that they will win the game at home.
Of course, there are just as many fans looking forward to the Wizards being able to win a game back.
Not to mention the tiebreak battle that they have never seen this season and have been thinking about for a long time, more importantly, they all hope to see the Wizards in the finals.
The Wizards have Yao Ming, McGrady, and their little boss Jordan, and their popularity is actually very high.
Just under two different voices, the sixth game of the two sides officially started.
O'Neal, invited by Sun Hao, to watch the live game together.
This is related to their opponent in the finals, so O'Neal naturally would not refuse.
It's not the tofu brain that Sun Hao prepared for him.
Speaking of which, after eating that last time, he never forgets it.
So when Sun Hao mentioned it, let alone watching the game together, he would be willing to ask him to help Sun Hao clean up together.
How low is foodie's self-control? You can't imagine.
Two people eat and chat while watching. For professional players like them, such simple and relaxing times are rare.
"Who do you think better of them to win?"
After O'Neal sniffed the sweet tofu brain, he turned his head to Sun Hao with satisfaction and asked.
"I hope the Wizards win."
Sun Hao did not answer directly.
"Um?"
O'Neal stopped what he was doing and looked at him in confusion.
"They both have defensive strength, but the Wizards are relatively weak, and I want to play with Yao in the finals again."
There is no need for Sun Hao to hide it in private communication.
After hearing this, O'Neal laughed, Sun Hao was very direct.
"But I think the Pistons will win."
But Sun Hao did change his subject.
There is nothing wrong with this, what he expected is different from what he expected.
"I feel so, too."
After laughing, O'Neal nodded seriously.
The two of them thought of going together.
The Battle of Tianwang Mountain has shown similar characteristics and strength of the two teams.
The Pistons' tacit understanding and teamwork are even better than last season.
The Wizards' offensive tactics are too one-on-one and are restricted by defensive masters like Larry Brown.
Considering that Yao Ming has limited defensive physical fitness, unless McGrady goes wild like Sun Hao, the Pistons will have a bigger chance of winning in this sixth game.
"And I want to win back if I lost to them last year."
O'Neal, just like Sun Hao.
Sun Hao also smiled and nodded. Revenge is something that a normal person would think about.
Not to mention that this is a basketball game, a competitive sports. Those who lose will definitely want to win back if they have a chance.
When they were chatting, the live broadcast had already begun.
The Wizards turned away from the beginning and took the lead under the leadership of the MM combination.
Yao Ming still has the dominance in the inside, and the start of the game is not much different from that of Tianwangshan.
Even at the end of the half, the Wizards led the Pistons by 9 points 49-40.
Then in the second half, the game process was similar to the previous one.
Yao Ming is not physically fit, and McGrady still shows no sign of an outbreak on the offensive end.
As a result, they were overtaken in the fourth quarter and could not catch up with the score.
This kind of game where the process is exactly the same is true, which is really rare in NBA.
Five seconds before the final game, the Wizards were 7 points behind the Pistons. Van Gundy retained the last trace of dignity for the team and replaced all the girls.
The two were given shots of the two, sitting next to each other in the audience, with different expressions.
McGrady's eyes were confused and helpless, and his sleepy eyes seemed to be about to close.
But Yao Ming, who was standing by, had endless unwillingness in his eyes. Even like Kobe did when he lost the series, he fell to the ground hard after taking the towel handed over by the staff. gif.
This is also the scene of the atmosphere that Yao Ming showed on the field after entering the NBA.
It can be expected that the media will keep reporting after the game as this scene is being watched.
"They need to change coaches."
When O'Neal saw this scene, he put down the tofu brain in his hand and sighed.
The saying that the playoffs are a touchstone is not in vain.
Whether it is a player or a coach, things that cannot be seen in the regular season are like put under a magnifying glass in the playoffs, and they are all clear at a glance.
The two consecutive playoff journey shows that Van Gundy's coaching ability is absolutely playoff level, but it is still some distance away from the champion coach.
To be continued...
