Chapter 472 Finals
In the third game of the Eastern Conference Finals, at home, the Wizards, who fought tooth and nail, relied on the performance of the Big Three to finally win the game with great difficulty.
But Wizards fans were not happy for long, because soon in the second game at home, the Wizards lost again.
The match between the two teams was also extremely intense, and the score between the two teams was extremely close. Even with five minutes left before the end of the game, it was still unclear who would win the final victory.
However, at this critical moment, Durant still stood up without hesitation.
Nicknamed the God of Death, he was born to kill the game at this moment.
In front of Leonard's defense, Durant hit consecutive key shots, causing the score gap between the two teams to widen. However, Curry and George failed to hit consecutive outside shots and missed the opportunity to regain the score.
3:1, although the game is not over yet, in many people's minds, it is actually over.
Although the Wizards are very strong, they are often at a disadvantage in games against the Bucks, especially when facing the Bucks' luxurious inside combination.
Under this situation, it is almost an impossible task for the Wizards to win three games in a row to achieve a comeback.
Sure enough, after returning home, the Bucks did not give the Wizards any chance.
Jokic partnered with Embiid and defeated Gobert in the paint. The two scored 24 points and 19 points respectively, completely dominating the paint, and the total score after the fifth game between the two teams became 4:1.
The Bucks eliminated the Wizards and entered the Finals for the second consecutive year. The opponents they are about to face are the Lakers and Clippers, who are still fiercely fighting in the Western Conference.
Unexpectedly, the Kings, ranked second in the Western Conference, were eliminated by the Clippers 4:3 in the second round. Facts have proved that although the combination of Harden and Cousins has a high upper limit, the lower limit is also not small.
Paul touched the floor in the Western Conference Finals three times. At the same time, the Lakers and Clippers also staged a local derby in the Western Conference Finals.
In the end, the Lakers with Hao Peng were better.
Although the Clippers have Griffin on the inside, their offensive firepower is completely unable to compare with Hao Peng. Even because of Hao Peng, Griffin's performance in the inside has been completely curbed.
Before the Western Conference Finals, Griffin averaged 21 points per game in the playoffs, ranking second on the team in scoring behind Paul.
But in the Western Conference Finals, although Griffin did not directly compete with Hao Peng, could he be used as an inside player? Griffin's offense with the ball simply could not avoid Hao Peng, who was guarding the basket? This led to a cliff-like shrinkage of his data.
, dropped directly to 16 points and 6 rebounds? Hao Peng's averages of 31 points, 14 rebounds, 3 assists and 4 blocks per game were completely exceeded.
With such a monster inside, no matter how hard the Clippers' Paul works, it won't help. What's more, Hao Peng is not alone. Butler's performance this season has also impressed many people. Although his scoring average is not high,
He only averages 22 points per game, but he is good both offensively and defensively. He has been recognized by Lakers fans as the most suitable second-in-command for Hao Peng.
4:2, the Lakers eliminated the Clippers? Reached the Finals again after 7 years.
I'm afraid that when the Lakers selected Hao Peng without hesitation in the draft, not many people realized how important this draft would be.
As the No. 1 draft pick, leading the team to the Finals is an achievement that is rare even in the entire NBA history.
Hao Peng was also selected to the All-NBA First Team, All-Defensive First Team, Best Rookie and All-Star. Is this year's Best Defensive Player award also in the bag? Even the regular season MVP, Hao Peng has a high chance of being selected.
.
If he can really win all these awards, even win the finals, and win FMVP, he may achieve an unprecedented Grand Slam.
Of course, this is too difficult. Not to mention that the Bucks are a mountain that is absolutely difficult for the Lakers to climb. In Wang Yong's view, it is difficult to award the regular season MVP award to Hao Peng.
There is no way, this is the natural disadvantage of being a Chinese player. The regular season MVP award is decided by votes from sports reporters and TV commentators from the United States and Canada. The vast majority of media people will probably vote for local players.
This kind of selfish behavior is normal, just like if this vote were held in China, the vast majority of people would vote for Chinese players.
What's more, this season is a season of explosive statistics. Westbrook's big triple-double and Harden's big double-double are the most favorable contenders for regular season MVP.
Wang Yong believes that this season's regular season MVP will most likely go to Westbrook. Although the Thunder's record is not good and can only rank fifth in the Western Conference, Westbrook's personal data is really explosive, averaging 30 per game.
+10+10 data, this is a miracle that only Big O has ever achieved, and it has now been recreated by Westbrook.
Even if there is a suspicion of data swiping, not many people will care. After all, many people cannot even do such a thing.
As expected.
Not long after the Eastern and Western Conference finals, the voting results for the season's major awards were announced.
The regular season MVP award was awarded to Westbrook, who averaged a triple-double per game, while Hao Peng won the best defensive player and best rookie.
Hao Peng's outstanding performance but his failure to be elected as the regular season MVP aroused fierce repercussions in the Chinese region, and many people expressed their dissatisfaction with Hao Peng.
In any case, the NBA 2016-17 season finals has officially begun with the two teams from the East and West standing out.
Milwaukee Bucks VS Los Angeles Lakers.
Most people's predictions for this game are leaning towards the Bucks.
Even though Hao Peng's strength in the interior ranks among the best in the league, it's still not enough to face the Bucks, who have a luxurious lineup and are considered one of the few in history.
In China, many people support Hao Peng's Lakers, hoping to win the first Chinese Finals MVP. At the same time, many people support Wang Yong's Bucks to win the championship. After all, Wang Yong is the first Chinese NBA championship coach.
, every championship also represents a new milestone and history.
On June 1, 2017, the NBA Finals officially began.
Before the game, as Wang Yong's former disciples, Hao Peng and Butler both came to say hello to Wang Yong.
Of course, Hao Peng needless to say, Butler is also extremely grateful to Wang Yong.
When he was a late first-round pick, not many people were optimistic about him, but after Wang Yong selected him, he told him directly that he would definitely become an All-Star player.
When he was with the Wizards, Wang Yong also gave Butler guidance and advice on training and playing style.
Now that Butler has successfully been selected as an All-Star and reached the championship with the Lakers, he is naturally very grateful to Wang Yong.
Chapter completed!
