I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 195: Advance to the finals!

   After defeating the Pistons at home and winning the Eastern Conference finals G1 game, the Nets players and Nets fans are very happy.

  Because the Lakers in the West are too strong, the Nets management has given up this season ahead of schedule and is fully committed to completing Carter's deal.

From all sources of information, Rod Thorne wants to make up a bargaining chip acceptable to the Raptors before the start of the finals, and then send Carter’s trade pre-signature plan to David Stuart before the start of the finals. Well filed in front of you.

   Carter's arrival is the key to whether the Nets can win the championship next season.

   Rod Thorne does not allow any accidents, and it is correct to drop the bag early.

   Otherwise, who knows if Carter has another thought after seeing the Lakers crowned, that the non-Lakers will not go?

   However, this is Rod Thorne and the Nets management. For Nets players and Nets fans, no matter what will happen next season, this season, now, the Nets are still in the playoffs.

   "Now, we are still moving forward!"

   This is the headline played by the local New Jersey media after the Nets defeated the Pistons.

   People have long hearts, and not everyone is the spiritual shareholder of the team.

   How much joy and touch did Chen Xiao and the Nets bring to New Jersey this season?

   At this moment, after the Nets management gave up this season, the Nets, from players to coaches to fans to the media, have achieved a true harmony and unity.

   This atmosphere is incredible!

As the general manager of the Nets, he is also the head of the Bulls department with many deceased officials throughout the NBA. He was the greatest vice president in NBA history as David Stern’s first assistant for 14 years. Of course, Rod Thorne can also see it. The Nets are now taking a breath.

   He is not blind.

   However, he is the general manager of the Nets. His only task is to make the Nets stronger!

   He just wants to take Carter to the Nets faster!

   What kind of chips does Carter need for the Raptors?

   The Raptors did not say.

   But after Rod Thorne, the best bargaining chip is either Super Giant for Super Giant, or to welcome Nash back to Canada.

   It’s impossible to change from Super Giant to Super Giant.

   Carter came to the Nets, super giant other teams out?

   When other teams are fools.

   No matter how great Rod Thorne’s face is, it’s impossible.

   Therefore, Rod Thorne has never considered super giant to super giant.

   In the NBA, any super giant is not for sale.

   So the best bargaining chip is only Nash.

   After watching the first game between the Nets and the Pistons, Rod Thorne directly contacted the Mavericks general manager, Nelson Jr.

   The Nets want to pull the Mavericks into this transaction. Of course, the Mavericks' general manager is unwilling to this invitation from the Nets.

   Nash is also a very important star player for the Mavericks.

   However, he can't be the master of the team. There is a boss on it, and a dad at home.

   After being eliminated 4-2 by the Spurs in the Western Conference semifinals, the Mavericks Cuban has been gnashing their teeth.

   "The three-star Mavericks can't be your spurs, can I get a five-star!"

   Hmm, after losing the Western Conference semifinals, Cuban was a little better.

   He is now really ready to study the Galaxy Battleship Real Madrid, and he wants to start a five-star Mavericks project in the Mavericks.

   There are even candidates.

   The Celtics don’t want Antoine Walker anymore?

I need to!

  Don't the Warriors want to lower the luxury tax, don't Antoine Jamison?

I need to!

   As long as it is a star, I want it all!

  Leave Nowitzki, Nash, and Finley, you can just send them away!

   As for the center...

   Our Dirk is invincible, and you Duncan can play center, so can my Dirk!

   That's right, at this time, Cuban, the head coach of the Mavericks, was a little frightened after speaking out his plan.

   You are going crazy!

   I managed to build a team that only needs a center to live. You want to come like this?

   What will I do next season?

  In history, after Cuban was so self-willed, old Nelson was directly killed by the pit, and finally left the Mavericks disheartenedly.

   Now Kuban is full of stars.

  Star, star, or star!

   He will not be reconciled if he doesn't make the Mavericks a five-star Mavericks next season!

   In this case, Rod Thorne wants to take Nash away, of course not!

   "Steve is an All-Star star, want to change? No!"

   Seeing that Cuban’s attitude is so determined, both old Nelson and little Nelson breathed a sigh of relief.

   But boss, what do you mean by rubbing your index finger with your thumb?

   "You have to add someone!"

  "..."

  Old Nelson, Little Nelson was dumbfounded.

   Seeing that the father and son were so frightened by him, Cuban continued without paying attention.

   "Tell Rodthone, one for two, I'll do it!"

   The general manager's office of the New Jersey Nets, upon hearing the Mavericks' request, Rod Thorne rubbed his head.

   I didn't expect the boss of the Dallas Mavericks to be so greedy and ignorant.

   Rod Thorne thought that the Mavericks would ask for a player he needed, but he didn't expect it to be such a request.

   It's really hard for Tang.

   Old Nelson would sigh helplessly if he knew what Rod Thorne was thinking.

  This wave of Kuban really convinced old Nelson, Jr. Nelson, and Rod Thorne.

   I really don’t understand the laws of basketball at all, so I just went blind myself.

   "It's just two for two, there is always one in Cocoa."

   Kuban’s request is said to be difficult. It is really difficult. It is not easy to exchange one star for two stars.

   But it’s simple and simple. Cuban’s request is straightforward in terms of quantity, not appropriate or inappropriate. For a person of his status, it is really not difficult to find more friends.

   Now, it depends on these friends' teams, which one needs Chen Xiao the most, and which one is willing to pay the most for Chen Xiao.

   A few days after the Mavericks made the request, Rod Thorne put the two plans in front of the Mavericks' Big Three.

   Tyson Chandler + Antoine Walker + Drew Gooden

   Ilgauskas + Antoine Walker

   "This one still needs to be selected? Of course the second one!"

   Isn’t the first one to cheat?

   A parallel second place and a rookie want to be a star?

  What a joke!

   "Mark, I want the first one!"

Ok? !

   "Yes, there is, hahahaha, finally there!"

   Cuban was a little frightened by the old Nelson who suddenly got excited next to him.

   But, Tang, even if you suddenly frighten me, it won’t happen!

   "Don, don't tell me to be the first. Without two stars, I am not allowed!"

  "..."

  The excited old Nelson felt that he was going to be ruined by his amateur boss now.

   "Rod, we want the first plan, but you need to help us change Gooden into a star!"

  "..."

   Rod Thorne frowned.

Because I was afraid that Ilgauskas of the second plan would not be considered a star in Cuban’s heart, he deliberately added a plan. Although the first plan Chandler was second in the parallel rankings, he was also second in the rankings, and the second half of the rankings was considered a star. ,is that OK? Gooden was the fourth overall pick last year. He performed well in his rookie season and has good future potential. There is no problem with being half a star, right?

   However, since the Mavericks chose the first plan, let's choose, that is, go around more.

   Isn’t it just continuing to call friends and call friends?

   "Donny, can any star be?"

   "Any star is fine!"

   Although little Nelson feels a little embarrassed, it’s nice to have someone who can share the ‘brain damage’ of his boss.

   Just when Rod Thorne started to call on Carter to call on friends and continue to stretch the trading front, Chen Xiao and the Nets continued to fight the Pistons.

   On May 24, 2003, the Nets continued to play against the Detroit Pistons at home.

  As the destiny nemesis of the Pistons this season, in the first game, Pistons coach Carlisle gave up all the fluke after making sure that the Nets players were not distracted by the trade.

   There is no problem of picking up leaks, and I need to fight for strength. To be honest, this is a bit desperate for the Pistons.

   Normal dry nets, the Pistons really can't do it.

   As for the last game, the Nets defeated the Pistons 84-74 at home. In this game, the Pistons lost only 10 points. If anyone who watched the game knows, the Pistons definitely lost more than 10 points.

   The Pistons played 8 on 5 and lost 10 points.

   Why do you say that?

   In this game between the Nets and the Pistons, the Nets fouled 29 times and the Pistons only fouled 18 times.

   The most important thing is that Chen Xiao and Kidd all fouled five times, and Martin also had four fouls.

   In addition, the Nets, 19 free throws in the entire game, and the Pistons, 30!

   To be reasonable, the referees have helped to such an extent. Your Pistons have not even led the game once and lost 10 points. You say, is it shameful?

   The Pistons general manager Joe Dumars and the Detroit fans who watched this game feel ashamed for the Pistons!

   No kidding, after watching this game, Joe Dumas is already preparing to kill Carlisle.

   Nima, why did the Pistons lose so badly in 8 to 5?

   Our generation of Pistons had never lost so badly when they played 5 to 8!

   Rick Carlisle also knew that the last game was lost, and the Pistons were full of gas from top to bottom.

   But he can't help it. The Pistons hit the Nets, they really couldn't!

  They would rather play the Lakers than play the Nets!

   Even if he doesn't want to play the Nets, Carlisle still has to play.

   Since tactical adjustments are useless, it can only emphasize that the players work harder and fight harder.

   Especially Hamilton.

   "Richard, you must have a heart of steel, this round of the series, our team can only rely on you!"

   It's not to blame Carlisle for being so anxious, hitting the Nets, and the Pistons' offense, you can only count on Hamilton to beat Chen Xiao.

  Big Ben? No way.

   Billups hit Kidd? No way.

  Prince hit Jefferson? Not even better!

   Defense can't beat the Nets, it can only rely on offense, and offense can only rely on Hamilton!

   Carlisle really hopes that this one of his own can throw 30 or 40 times in a game like Wonder Boy!

   It's just that Richard Jefferson struggled with Carlisle's emphasis.

  The heart of steel?

   He really doesn’t understand this...

   Isn’t this just catching the ducks on the shelves?

   However, in this G2 between the Nets and Pistons, Carlisle kept blowing on Hamilton before the game still had an effect.

   In the first quarter of this game, Hamilton was very eager. He shot 8 times in a single quarter, hit 4 times, and scored 10 points.

   This efficiency is really Dior!

   Billups next to Kidd, 4 0 in the first quarter, with the help of the referee, Kidd made a foul and took 2 points.

   The Pistons scored 19 points on 6-for-17 in the first quarter.

   With Hamilton's performance, the Pistons were only 2 points behind 19-21 in the first quarter, which was fine.

   Carlisle, who finished the first quarter, felt that there might be something to do in this game, and Hamilton was on the hook!

   is only the second quarter. Hamilton, who is 1 in 1 in the whole quarter, will make Carlisle cry.

   Brother, 100% hit rate!

   I want you to hit 100% of the ball!

   Your 1 in 1 makes me more uncomfortable than 0 in 10!

   Such a good touch, why not throw it away!

  Xuexue opposite the 4 out of 10 Wonder Boy!

   No kidding, this quarter is really thanks to the help of the referee. In a single quarter, he gave the Nets 10 fouls and 14 free throws for the Pistons, otherwise the Pistons would collapse in the first half of the game.

   Although the Pistons did not collapse, the Pistons still lost 23 to 29 in the second quarter by 6 points, and the difference between the two sides also widened to 8 points.

   In this game, the Pistons are very difficult to win.

   Hamilton, who was blown for a while by Carlisle with a sullen face during the half-time break, attacked again in the third quarter, shot 7 times in a single quarter, 4 of them, and scored 8 points.

   Very good, but Carlisle is still gritting his teeth, thinking that Hamilton can throw more, even if he throws all the **** of the team, he is willing!

   It’s just that soon. Carlisle felt that Hamilton was as good as the third quarter. If he throws 7 like the third quarter in each quarter, he would be satisfied, because in the fourth quarter, Hamilton doesn’t want to make a shot anymore!

   was 2 of 4 in the whole quarter and shot four times.

   In the end, the Pistons lost another game 86-98 on the road.

   In this game, Hamilton scored a team-high 24 points and made 11 of 20 shots.

   In a game like the Pistons and the Nets, 11 of 20, this is really accurate! First release https://(www) https://m/.x81zw./com/

   But the problem is that the attackers are too few and the thieves are upright, and they won't commit any fouls.

   On the other hand, Chen Xiao, who faced Hamilton, did not shoot as high as Hamilton. He made 13 of 32 shots and scored 31 points in the game.

   Chen Xiao, who is deep in the trading whirlpool, scored 30+ in the playoffs in two consecutive games, and shot 30+ in two consecutive games. Seriously, this is quite controversial.

   After the game, an American reporter asked Carlisle how they managed to make Chen Xiao hit 41 times in two games.

   Hearing this question, Carlisle got angry.

   "Don't tell me about 41 iron strikes. In these two games, Wonder Boy averaged 33.5 points per game and scored a total of 67 points!"

   "If the Nets are willing, I will send Richard to the Nets for Wonder Boy!"

   Carlisle, who was almost destroyed by Hamilton, really scared the reporters at the scene.

   Even the Nets coach Byron Scott was shocked.

   So when the reporter asked this question, Scott looked very happy.

   "I don't change, I want to win, don't hit percentage."

   Hamilton is very Dior, such a defensive battle, such a game, played 16 of 9, 24 points, this time 20 of 11, 24 points.

   Regardless of whether the Pistons scored 74 points or 86 points for the Pistons, he can steadily get 20+ from the field.

   But what the Pistons need is that he can use a not-so-high hit rate to get 30+ or ​​even 40+ for the Pistons to win!

   He doesn't score. Billups and Big Ben Prince really don't score. No matter how many shots they make, they won't score many points.

   But Hamilton is not a player with a heart of steel, what can you do?

   can only call Naihe.

   Carlisle not only left New Jersey with 0 to 2, but also left New Jersey with despair.

   This game is really impossible to play!

   It's not just Carlisle, the Pistons are also quite desperate, including Hamilton.

   Those that Carlisle asked for, he really didn’t understand!

   Does he have that ability?

   Maybe, but I don’t know how to do it!

   In the Eastern Conference finals, it was already 2-0 after the first two games.

   On the west side, it is also 2 to 0.

   However, although both are 2-0, the Spurs who lost two games at home are more desperate than the Pistons who lost two games away.

   also made Duncan a lot depressed.

   In the first game, he was 40+15+7, and he ran into a KO and lost 71.

In the second game, he 32 points + 20 rebounds + 6 assists + 7 blocks. Together with David Robinson, he suppressed the fat man, but the opposite Kobe Bryant gave him a 29-for-13. He made 4 of 7 three-pointers and 23 of 25 free throws. He scored a playoff-high 53 points.

   In this game, Kobe made 25 free throws. I really don’t blame the referee. The Spurs really couldn’t find a point where Kobe could be matched. After Bowen’s season reimbursement, the Spurs really no one can control Kobe!

   In fact, in the first two games between the Spurs and the Lakers, O'Neal was suppressed by Duncan and David Robinson.

   O'Neal barely scored 31 points in the first game. This game was 10 of 16 and scored 21 points. However, it really can't stand Kobe's crazy Sahuan!

   "Tim Duncan and Kobe Bryant, who is the king of the Western Conference this year?"

   Many media have already made such a vote.

   This is nothing, Kobe and him in this series are really amazing.

  The point is that the fat man O'Neill, the fat man who was obviously suppressed by himself, has a mouth that makes people feel uncomfortable!

   "Tim played better than me? Hahahaha, he is fighting my little brother for the king of the Western Conference, and I am the king of the finals!"

   I have to say, O'Neill's words really make Duncan's mentality uncomfortable.

   After all, O'Neal has always been a hurdle in his heart. Obviously he is no worse than O'Neal. The whole world says he is afraid of O'Neal.

   O'Neal, the fat man, is saying that, didn't he make the whole world hype again. The reason why he has the upper hand is because the fat man didn't go all out?

   This fat man is too crazy.

   It is not that the stone Buddha mentality is not good enough, but that there are only two people in this world who can engage in the stone Buddha mentality, one is fat and the other is bald.

   This round of the Spurs and Lakers series is all alive!

   Fatty and bald... both are there.

   After leading the Pistons 2-0 at home, the Nets came to Detroit with the mentality of qualifying for the finals.

   On May 28, 2003, the Nets challenged the Detroit Pistons in an away game.

   After losing two consecutive away games, in this game, the Pistons clearly felt that their defense was a little loose.

   As soon as the first quarter came up, the Nets scored 28 points.

   In the second quarter, the Nets scored 29 points in a single quarter.

   In the previous two games, how could the Nets score 57 points in the half, I can't even dream of it.

   Obviously, the previous two 8-on-5 defeats made the Pistons desperate.

   The referee can't win with it, what else can you do?

   However, this game is at home after all, so there is no fighting spirit in the first half, it is really unreasonable.

   The Pistons tightened their bodies again in the second half.

   I have to say that the defense of the Pistons is really good, and it can be tight after being loose.

   said loose can loose, tight can tighten, this is a real expert!

   In the first half, the Nets made 52.4% of their field goals. In the second half, there were 30% left. It was simply a cliff drop!

   Especially Chen Xiao. In the first half of the scene, Chen Xiao faced the Pistons who didn't want to play very much. He was 9 of 15 and scored 23 points.

   But in the second half...

   6 of 17, scored 19 points.

   However, Chen Xiao scored 13 of 32 in the game and scored the second playoff 40+ of his career, leading the Nets to defeat the Pistons 97-85.

   Chen Xiao is still very iron in this game, shooting only 40%.

   Hamilton, who was in the opposite position, was really stable. He scored 24 points on 9 of 17 in the game.

   Hmm, another 24 points. Seeing Hamilton's score, Carlisle felt that Hamilton was taunting him on purpose.

   Brother, please, can't you make more shots? Can't you fail to score 24 points?

   Are you suggesting something to me?

   We all know that No. 24 between you and the Lakers is a childhood sweetheart.

   Your childhood sweetheart is the king of the Western Judgment, can't you come to the king of the Eastern Judgment? !

  Carlisle hopes Hamilton can become the king of the Eastern Conference, but...

   On May 28, 2003, the Palace of Auburn Hills, Detroit, the whole arena, boos everywhere!

   No way. In Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Pistons lost a very ugly game at home.

   The Pistons played at home and lost to the Nets 82 to 102.

   Except for Hamilton, this game is still stable, 10 of 21, scored 24 points, well, 24 points.

   Other people's performance is a disaster.

   Billups, who had no fighting spirit, was 1 in 8 and was scored 6 points by Kidd. In this round of the series, Billups was destroyed by Kidd.

   Prince was 1 in 3 and scored 4 points.

  Big Ben, the Pistons center was forced to attack and scored 10 points with 5 of 13 in the game.

  According to the Pistons players on the scene, what group of things did you TM play in this game?

   To attack but not to attack, to defend but not to defend, let the Nets hit 53% of the field!

   In this match, Chen Xiao, who was crazy for the first three rounds, finally got a match.

   16 of 32, the hit rate was finally over 50, not easy, the audience also got the highest 38 points.

   Tell you guys, just like Hamilton scored 24 points, Chen Xiao seems to have made 32 shots recently, reaching 32 shots in three consecutive games.

   But, it doesn't matter. This is the team's tactical needs. If the first three games were a lot of irons and some controversy, many people are saying that the Pistons' tactics that made Chen Xiao's main attack get the Lakers are to send them.

   But in this game, there should not be many people who would criticize him. The shooting rate exceeded 50% and scored 38 points, which is great!

   "Finals, we are here!"

   And just when Chen Xiao and the Nets players were excited to win the Eastern Conference once again and take the lead in qualifying for the Finals.

   Dallas.

   "Even though Eddie Jones and Gasol are also considered stars, they are two bigger cards!"

   "I want this plan!"

   Kuban is satisfied.

   Old Nelson and Little Nelson sighed and breathed a sigh of relief.

   A few minutes later, Memphis, Jerry West is a little dumbfounded, why don't the Mavericks want me? Old Nelson and Little Nelson have no problems with their heads?ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм

   Within a few minutes, David Stern of the NBA headquarters in New York received a pre-trade application around Carter.

   As long as he agrees, UU Read www.uukanshu.com then this transaction application will take effect immediately when the transaction starts.

   "It's a crazy deal."

   When David Stern saw the place he cared about the players most in the trade, David Stern was not dissatisfied with a sudden attack on his face.

   "Very good, really good."

   David Stern nodded and said to the assistant beside him: "Agree."

agreed!

   New Jersey general manager's office, watching the Nets' Eastern Conference championship on TV to celebrate, Rod Thorne, who has been busy day and night for more than a week, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

  This transaction is finally completed!

   Carter, finally became a player of the Nets!

   Next season, we can finally touch the trophy of the championship!

   looked at the statistics of Chen Xiao’s game played on TV.

   16 of 32, 38 points, 6 rebounds, 2 blocks and 2 steals.

   Very beautiful data.

   Very good young people, very good young people.

but…

  He is Carter, Vince Carter!

   "I won't regret it!"

   definitely not!

   Rod Thorne closed his eyes in relief.

  Ps: Chen Xiao’s new ownership should not be difficult to guess. The trading plot is here for the time being, and the answer will be announced after the finals, so the finals are on!

  Ps: Ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass! !
