Chapter 711: Yao Sha vs Demon Sword Swastika

  Chapter 711 Chapter 711. Yao Sha vs. Demon Sword Swastika

   On May 17, the Spurs defeated the Suns 105-98 in the Battle of Tianwangshan, scoring a big score of 3-2.

  The Trail Blazers players who had a two-day rest on the second day began to prepare for the game.

  In the pre-training meeting, the coaching staff announced the direction they had been discussing for several days—offense.

   It is a consensus that defense wins the championship.

  The 8-game winning streak swept Los Angeles, and they relied on defense.

  So, the real guy Kwame Brown questioned this at the instigation of his teammates.

Shuai stood up and explained: "Our defense is good enough, but no team's defense can be better than the Spurs. We have our advantages. We refer to the 3 games that the Spurs lost in this year's playoffs. The game, the decisions made."

  The defensive assistants all supported the main offense, and the players naturally had no objections.

  In the past two seasons, the ability of the coach has already been recognized by the players. This must be a deliberate decision by the coaching staff.

   Seeing that the players had no objections, the coach added: "Also, we are not sure whether the opponent is the Spurs or the Suns..."

   Liu Xiu is the one who has the least opinion. After shopping with Anne Hathaway yesterday afternoon, he came here for a walk and saw the coaching staff in a state of desperation.

  The coaching staff is under more pressure than these players!

   Moreover, in his view, strengthening offensive training is actually 'conservative' training.

  …

  The Trail Blazers started their preparations for the Western Conference Finals, and the other series in the second round began to win and lose one after another.

  The direction of this year's playoffs has exceeded many people's expectations.

  The first round was already surprising, but the second round was even more surprising!

  Before the start of the second round, the Spurs and the Suns, which were predicted by the media to be far apart in strength, reached Tianwang Mountain.

  However, the strong confrontation between the 'best center forward' and 'the strongest outside trio in history' predicted by the media is a one-sided development.

   At 7:41 p.m. on the 18th, after an overtime game, the fifth game of the series between the Heat and the Nets was decided.

   Relying on Anthony Walker's quasi-lore three-pointer, the Heat narrowly beat the Nets 106-105 and advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals 4-1!

   Kidd had 17 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists, Tracy McGrady had 41 points, and Richard Jefferson had 23 points.

  But O'Neal made 17 of 27 shots tonight, plus 14 of 20 free throws, soaring 48 points, 16 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks, setting a new high in his personal playoff career, and blowing up the Nets' insiders with one hand.

  Anthony Walker also scored 23 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.

  Even if Wade only made 6 of 19 shots against the outside trio of Kidd, McGrady, and Richard Jefferson, the Heat relied on their huge inside advantage to drag the game into overtime and win the game.

   On the 19th, there are two games today.

   First of all, G5 between the Pistons and the Pacers. This group of matchups was regarded as the peak matchup of the Eastern Conference before the start of the series.

  But Little Giant + Big Ben, Tianke Artest, the "strongest twin towers" that the Pacers have been proud of in the past two years, this year they met the epic twin towers of the Pistons, and they seemed so fragile.

In the first 4 games, Carter averaged 30.2 points per game, Billups averaged 16 points and 9 assists per game, Yao Ming averaged 20 points, 8 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.5 blocks per game, Ben Wallace averaged 4 points and 11 rebounds per game... The Pistons 3 1 lead.

No surprises tonight, Carter scored 23 points, Billups scored 10 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists, Yao Ming had 19 points and 9 rebounds, Ben Wallace had 10 points and 10 rebounds... The Pistons beat the Pacers 101-90, Advance 4 to 1, and meet the Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals!

   Liu Xiu didn't watch the previous game, but Liu Xiu watched the live broadcast tonight.

   Obviously, the hidden danger of the Pacers overdrawing their future in the 03-04 season has become a chronic disease.

There are stars, but the space is blocked by big contracts. There are many middle-class contracts, and most of them are premium contracts or even junk contracts. The risk of injury is not small, and it is a small ball market. , the record will not be bad if the status quo is maintained, and the box office is so good.

If there are no major changes, Liu Xiu reckons that the Pacers will become a team in the peak period of the three major stars of "consumption". It seems that they are the favorites for the championship every year. No chance of reaching the summit.

  The Pistons actually have the same hidden danger, and it is more serious than the Pacers. The difference is that the Pistons have just started, while the Pacers have passed their peak.

   But, Liu Xiu thinks, Bird and Joe Dumas are not blind to hidden dangers, but even if they know there are risks, they must fight.

  The opportunity to form such a lineup, the chance to win the championship, may not come once in ten or twenty years.

  Liu Xiu just talked about it from the perspective of God when chatting with his family and teammates, just to say hello, the future of the two teams has nothing to do with him.

   Now what he cares about is that the Pistons and the Heat will play against each other in the Eastern Conference Finals!

  Yao Ming, who has entered the golden period of his career, and O'Neal, who is at the end of his peak, both have strong teammates, and they just went head-to-head in the division finals!

  The bridge bean sack, Liu Xiu suddenly remembered, in this way, wouldn't the limelight of the regional finals be taken away by the female Zhao Riyue?屮!

  …

  The series between the Pistons and the Pacers, which started one or two days later than other series, is over, and the series between the Suns and the Spurs is not over yet.

  After the Pistons eliminated the Pacers 4-1, the Suns and the Spurs played a relay game.

  Back to the home court, the Suns relied on Nash's 24 points and 15 assists and Marion's 26 points and 9 rebounds to narrowly beat the Spurs 104 to 98, dragging the series into the tiebreaker.

   There was another episode in the game, Kurt Thomas almost beat Bowen.

This time it's the American standard 'I feel a threat from you', Marion cuts to the layup, Bowen retracts to grab the rebound, doesn't fully shrink in place, but is still pushed by Kurt Thomas, almost hit beat.

   This situation has appeared more than once in this series.

   Liu Xiu, who has rested for 6 days, feels pain in the egg and needs to rest... But at least the time for the division finals has been determined.

  The East Finals will start on the 22nd, and the Western Conference Finals will start on the 24th.

  The coaching staff of the Trail Blazers is also very painful, but there is no other way, they can only play in-team training games to ensure their state...

   On the 21st, the series between the Spurs and the Suns was finally decided.

  Ginobili, who was put on the bench for the first time in two years, played 29 minutes and scored 30 points, plus 11 rebounds and 11 assists. He scored his first triple-double in the playoffs and helped Duncan score 30 points.

  With Parker's 24 points and 6 assists, the Spurs narrowly beat the Suns 114-109, advanced 4-3, and joined the Trail Blazers in the Western Conference Finals!

  Liu Xiu also watched the live broadcast of the game. At the end of the game, he received a reminder that the task was successfully triggered, but now he is more concerned about Ginobili.

  Yao Dao is on the bench! Totally liberating!
