I’m Really Playing Basketball

1 to 0, 1 to 1, 2 to 1, 2 to 2, 3 to 2, 3 to 3!

With the advancement of the much-anticipated advance finals of the Heat and Magic, the controversy arising from this group of matches has become more and more serious.

In the fifth game between the Magic and the Heat, when the whole world felt that both sides should play overtime, at the last moment, Wade's classic Wade fell, which actually won the pressure without falling so well. Whistle free throw opportunity.

In the end, the Heat's offensive free throw lore defeated the Magic by 2 points.

I don’t know if it was in revenge for the Heat’s final lore in the last game. In the sixth game, the Magic’s starting shooting guard Ginobili was 10 of 15 in the game and 15 of 17 free throws. The game went down. While leading the Magic to beat the Heat 103 to 100 with 39 points, the game also caused five fouls against Messenger Butler and Tony Allen, who defended him.

The Heat had 34 fouls throughout the game.

The most important thing is that of Ginobili's 17 free throws in this game, 11 of them were in the second half when the score was extremely anxious.

In the end, when the game ended and Wade failed in a three-point lore, the players of the Magic and the Heat almost had an extremely fierce physical confrontation and conflict.

In this round of the series, the two teams are really going to be a bit dim, with the taste of the sun and the moon dull.

These two games added a lot of gunpowder to this series.

As a result, Donaghy, the referee in charge of these two games, also attracted much attention.

Under the leadership of Chen Xiao, after the Cavaliers defeated the Bucks 4-1 and entered the Eastern Conference Finals, the Cavaliers team was waiting for their next opponent.

The Magic and Heat, the two imaginary enemies of the Cavaliers this season, will be like this in the playoffs. Chen Xiao and the others had never thought of it.

After six games, the final point difference of each game did not exceed 3 points. After six games, the total score of the two teams was the same.

How anxious this is.

It can be said that this round of the series, the two teams played the NBA's top performance.

In this round of the series, Yao Ming, who had beaten Ottoman in the last round, finished six games, averaging only 17 points per game and shooting only 51%, which is far behind the previous round’s 22 points per game, 66%. The hit rate.

In this round of the series, I don’t know if Duncan played dead or not. This round of the series faced Yao Ming and Bosh’s internal defense. Duncan was intercepted 7 times in the previous six games, plus 14 he was risked. Piece.

Of course, as everyone knows, Duncan is the king of NBA history. Duncan in history has been stolen 1488 times in his career. Well, this data is still the regular season.

In history, in 2005, this year's Finals, Duncan faced Big Ben and Rashid's Pistons, and he was risked 18 times and 9 steals.

In such a comparison, Duncan played the Heat in the Eastern Conference semifinals. Yao Ming and Bosh have been so miserable. In fact, it is not miserable.

As a representative of the basic skill type insider, why is the big basic skill Duncan always so blocked?

Chen Xiao didn't know before, but now Chen Xiao knows it. The basic skills are focused on one-of-a-kind glances, little change, no fancy, no special effects, stability is really stable, and machinery is also real machinery.

In short, no matter what, in this round of the series, Duncan made the Heat's Chris Bosh famous.

This little Garnett seems to have really become Garnett.

By the way, Garnett is the player who blocked Duncan the most in the NBA.

This is also true in history.

Garnett blocked Duncan 11 times in the finals last year.

Of course, this round of the series, of course, the Magic also has a famous hero.

When the superstars of the Heat and Magic were caught in the explosive fight, the starting shooting guard Ginobili averaged 20.5 points, 5 rebounds and 4.5 assists and 57.6 field goal percentage after six games in this series. %, 55% of three-pointers, which is particularly outstanding.

You know, throughout the series, the two teams with a field goal percentage of more than 50% are Yao Ming and Ginobili.

Duncan 46%

Wade 45%

McGrady is 41% appalling.

The direct duel between Wade and Tracy McGrady in this series is also quite cruel.

Wade averaged only 24.5 points per game under McGrady's defense in this round of the series.

And McGrady, under Wade's defense in this round of the series, averaged 22 points per game and made less than 30% of his three-pointers.

In short, in such a fierce to cruel playoff, Chen Xiao and the Cavaliers all saw a completely different style of playing against the Bucks.

To be honest, compared with the intensity of this round of the Magic Heat series, whether it is the Cavaliers playing the Bucks, the Western Suns playing the Mavericks, and the Timberwolves playing the Spurs, they are not enough.

By the way, in this year's playoffs, in addition to the Cavaliers and Bucks that have already been divided, the Western Conference has also divided the two groups.

The Suns beat the Mavericks 4-1 relatively easily.

In this round of the series, Dampier, who claimed to be the second center in the Western Conference, was beaten by O'Neal.

The driver's defense against Rasheed was very efficient, but it could not be a decisive force.

Speaking of the duel between the driver and Rashid, it was quite interesting.

Nowitzki almost got the lowest points in the playoffs against Rashid.

At the same time, Nowitzki's highest score in the playoffs was also won against Rashid.

In history, the Mavericks played the Trail Blazers in the 0203 playoffs. Dirk played Rashid. He scored 16 of 27, 46 points, and 2 of 11 points. The contrast is so huge, in the history of the NBA. Are rare.

In other words, Rashid has an excellent ability to defend Nowitzki.

However, Rashid has yet to find the pain point of defending Nowitzki.

Generally speaking, Rashid can't defend Nowitzki, but he unconsciously finds Nowitzki's weaknesses from time to time and plays a game that embarrass Nowitzki.

Unconscious, unconscious.

Of course, for the matchup between the Suns and the Mavericks, even if Rashid is unconscious, that's enough.

The inside advantage of the Suns is too great, and the Mavericks have almost no defensive power.

The other set of playoffs in the Western Conference, the Spurs and Timberwolves, is much more intense than the Suns and Mavericks.

Let me talk about the final result. The Spurs eliminated the Timberwolves 4 to 3.

In this round of the series, the Timberwolves have drifted to the perimeter of the Pacific, except for Szebiak, and the Spurs’ perimeter led by Ron Howard, Arenas and Bowen was blown up.

Luo Ge and Arenas can attack and defend, and Bowen can defend and shoot.

Cassell ran into Ron Howard and was blasted.

When Sprewell met Arenas, he was similarly blown up.

In this round of the series, Sprewell faced Arenas and the worst was in G4. Sprewell was defended by Arenas, 14 of 6 and only scored 19 points, while Arenas faced Spres. Will is 13 of 26, a career-high 40 points in the playoffs.

After all, for the first time in the playoffs, the new high is indeed not that high.

However, as a player who played the playoffs for the first time in his career, Arenas had a very good performance in this playoff journey, averaging 25 points, 5.1 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 2.1 per game with a 43% shooting rate per game. Steal.

As a player who played in the playoffs for the first time, many people said that he saw the shadow of a superstar.

The Timberwolves’ perimeter was so badly blown by the Spurs’ perimeter, but in the end it was only a big 3 to 4 loss. The reason, of course, was that the Timberwolves found it back on the inside.

Garnett faced the Spurs inside Scola and Howard and played a series that seemed like a teaching.

Why do you say that?

In this round of the series, while Garnett blasted Scola, he was also very interested in teaching his fan, Dwight Howard, in the game.

Everyone knows that Garnett is a rookie friend of the NBA and a confidant big brother.

Everyone knows that Garnett likes to point the rookies inside the game.

Therefore, many NBA rookies are looking forward to playing with the Timberwolves, and these NBA rookies who have finished the game with the Timberwolves will finally say: "I was so fragrant by Kevin's mouth!"

This is not connotation, nor black, these rookies are really fragrant by Garnett's on-site teaching.

Garnett's teaching of rookies on the court is all-encompassing.

Defensive position, defensive actions, offensive choices, offensive posture, etc...

That's really hand-to-mouth, mouth-to-mouth.

We all know that in this era, although Duncan is the strongest insider, Garnett is definitely the number one insider idol. 80% of young American insider idols are Garnett. This is no joke.

And after these young insiders entered the NBA, after the game with Garnett, after facing Garnett's pilgrimage, the worship of Garnett was really fanatical.

In this series, when the Spurs and Timberwolves were still in progress, Ron Howard heard Howard privately said to him more than once: "If I can, I would like to join the Timberwolves and Kevin as teammates at a basic salary!"

Good guys!

Ron Howard doesn't know if Howard's words are expressing Popo's dissatisfaction with his oppression or expressing his admiration for Garnett.

To be honest, Luo Ge also respects Garnett very much.

You are one of the strongest power forwards in history. Facing these rookies who have just arrived in the NBA, being so kind and amiable is really a drink.

You know, the NBA has always been the strongest, the survival of the fittest, and rookies are the lowest end of the food chain.

For senior NBA players, one of the greatest pleasures of a full season is to take pleasure in bullying rookies.

In the NBA, those senior players just don't bully rookies. Big brothers like Garnett who are willing to be rookies are really unique.

The story of Garnett and Kwame Brown has now become a legend in the NBA.

Many people know that Kwame Brown was almost abolished by Jordan.

It was Garnett who kept Kwame Brown's confidence.

Let Kwame Brown stand up again after Jordan left.

In the first season that Jordan left, that is, last season, Kwame Brown averaged 12+8+1.5 blocks per game.

And this season, Kwame Brown went further.

Although the Wizards did not enter the playoffs this season, Kwame Brown's performance in the Wizards has been recognized by everyone.

Although averaging 15 points, 9 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game is not a big deal for the top centers, for a center who has been called a parallel importer for two years, it really stands up.

At the very least, in these two seasons, everyone rarely called Kwame Brown parallel imports.

In this case, under the propaganda of Kwame Brown and national reporters and media.

Garnett now has such a sacred taste for the rookies of the NBA, as if he is full of holy light.

Therefore, in addition to the Wolf King, Garnett now has a new nickname, plus teacher.

In the "Rookie Favorite and Respect Player Ranking" selected by any media, the plus teacher is the well-deserved number one.

In fact, don't underestimate the influence of rookies.

Seriously, Garnett didn't think much about his influence as a rookie.

He just hoped that these rookies could live better in the NBA, and he didn't think about what to get.

but……

Let's put it this way, some buried rookies, when they yearn for themselves to be seen, yearn to enter the NBA, where is the first place in their minds that come to mind?

Of course it is Garnett who is the best for rookies!

Although the NBA scouts are very good, but which NBA draft will not miss the net?

These fish that slip through the net are all resources.

Moreover, the resources of the NBA are more than just those who missed the net, and those young players who did not play well in the previous seasons, where would their first choice be?

These people also have pearls. Isn't Xiao Ao a typical representative of this?

Of course, these things, Garnett must not know now.

Facing the rookies of Howard and Scola, this round of the series, Garnett averaged 29 points, 16 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks per game.

On May 24, 2005, Chen Xiao, Xiao Zhan and the Cavaliers players watched the Heat and Magic's tiebreaker at Carlisle's home under the organization of the team's head coach Carlisle.

Before the game started, because of the previous controversy, there was already a lot of uproar in the entire NBA.

Even before the start of the game, the league replaced Donaghy, the head coach of the game, in order to calm the controversy.

When Chen Xiao watched the Heat and Magic players appearing on TV, Chen Xiao could clearly feel the solemn atmosphere that can be conveyed even through the screen.

In Miami, in this tie-break, when the Heat's players were ready to play, as the head of the Heat, Wade looked at his teammates around him and almost gritted his teeth and shouted a declaration of victory in his heart. .

"This game, we will definitely win!"

"This time, I don't want to miss another appointment!"

Thinking that Chen Xiao had already led the Cavaliers to defeat the Bucks and waited for him on the stage of the Eastern Conference Finals, Wade gritted his teeth and led his teammates onto the court amidst the cheers of the Heat fans.

On TV, of course, Chen Xiao's eyes have always been on Wade.

Wade is under great pressure in this round of the series. As the Heat's leader, he faces Tracy McGrady in this round of the series.

Chen Xiao is very clear about what kind of player McGrady is.

McGrady's height, McGrady's technique, McGrady's comprehensiveness, let's just say that, except for the shortcoming of unstable shooting, McGrady is perfect.

When you are on offense and defense against such a player, even Kobe, there is no guarantee that he can be restrained.

McGrady is not defensible.

At the same time, McGrady's height, wingspan and explosive speed are a nightmare for any defender.

McGrady dared to say in an interview that Kobe had never beaten him in a heads-up. It was not a complete big mouth. He did have such strength.

Faced with such a strong opponent, it is conceivable how fortunate Wade has played in this round of the series.

In this round of the series, many people walked in Bosh who praised the Heat and Ginobili who praised the Magic.

In fact, the true cornerstone of this round of series is Wade and Tracy McGrady, Duncan and Yao Ming.

Yao Ming, with the help of Chris Bosh, played a five-to-five match with Duncan, and even vaguely suppressed Duncan.

As for Wade and McGrady, there is no way for Wade to have any assistants to help him.

He needs someone to face McGrady's challenge.

Although Wade is now the MVP of the regular season and he thinks that his strength is no longer defeated by McGrady, this kind of extreme one-to-one pressure is huge, not to mention the most suitable one against McGrady. One player.

It can be said that in this round of the series, Wade has already taken out all of his own, and only vaguely gained the upper hand.

If it weren't for the two main battlefields inside and outside, the Heat had the upper hand slightly.

Let's put it this way, the thickness of the Heat's lineup is impossible to play 3 to 3 with the Magic, playing so anxiously.

In this tiebreaker, if the Heat want to win, they must meet these two conditions. Yao Ming and Chris Bosh will continue to slightly suppress Duncan, and Wade will continue to slightly suppress Tracy McGrady.

If this is not possible, the Heat will have very little hope of winning.

"Little Tai..."

Although thousands of miles away, Chen Xiao still felt the pressure on Wade at this time.

"Xiao Chen, don't worry too much. From the previous six games, Wade has vaguely found a way to deal with McGrady. It is more likely to suppress McGrady. On the other hand, Yao Ming and Chris Bosh seems to have become more and more tacit. It should be okay to overpower Duncan a little. The Heat have many possibilities to reproduce these things, while Ginobili on the Magic side has difficulty repeating the performance of the previous game. In this game, the Heat's victory is still slightly bigger."

Looking at Chen Xiao's worry for Wade, James whispered to Chen Xiao.

This is what many media experts say.

Although Wade is under great pressure, the Heat have an advantage in tiebreakers.

but……

Is it really like this?

Chen Xiao thought of the almost omnipotent Duncan after returning from center to power forward last season, and finally frowned.

And at this time, on the court, the two teams' starters have already played out.

The Heat’s starters are center Yao Ming, power forward Chris Bosh, small forward Odom, shooting guard Tony Allen, and point guard Wade.

In the previous three games, Payton had too much speed in the face of Parker and was taken from the starting lineup.

In the next three games, Russell Butler could not defend Ginobili and was taken from the starting lineup.

Tony Allen, a rookie player who performed well on the defensive end before this game, became the team's starter.

I have to say that Heat coach Spoelstra is still very courageous. In such an important game, he dare to start a rookie.

On the other side, the Magic started this game with center Pachulia, power forward Duncan, small forward Tracy McGrady, shooting guard Ginobili, and point guard Parker.

Looking at the Magic's starting lineup on TV, Chen Xiao almost subconsciously shouted in his heart: "Sure enough!"

Last season, Chen Xiao and Duncan played in seven games. Chen Xiao is too aware of the difference between Duncan who plays center and Duncan who plays power forward.

Duncan plays center, which is more beneficial to the Magic's overall offense. Duncan, who plays center, can do more cooperation and pull for his teammates on the offensive end.

Duncan plays a power forward. This is more beneficial to his personal offense and defense. Duncan, who plays a power forward, has directly risen a level in tonnage. This allows Duncan to suppress his opponents when attacking and defensively, instead of playing. The center was covered by Yao Ming's height like that, and Chris Bosh's speed was waiting for an opportunity to steal and block.

Usually Duncan is enough to play center, but in this critical game, Duncan will definitely be a power forward!

Therefore, Chen Xiao called Wade before the game to remind Wade and Yao Ming.

"Chen, don't worry, even if Duncan is playing power forward, I believe Chris can also block him, blocking him like Yao blocked Duncan at the center position!"

Wade has confidence in Chris Bosh.

And Chris Bosh's constant help to block Duncan in the past six games really makes people full of confidence in this little Garnett.

but……

Chen Xiao still thinks Wade may have underestimated Duncan.

Chen Xiao did not deny Chris Bosh's talent, but...

"This game, the Heat will lose..."

what?

Just now he comforted Chen Xiao, and James, who told Chen Xiao not to worry, heard Chen Xiao's words, his face was surprised.

Co-author, is all the comfort I just said in vain?

just……

Two hours later.

Watching the score on TV at this time, James opened his mouth wide and didn't know what to say for a while.

98 to 95!

The away team is in front and the home team is behind.

The Magic beat Wade with a three-pointer away.

On the final attack, Wade missed a three-pointer once again!

On TV, there were 11 of 28 free throws in the game, 21 of 25 free throws, and Wade, who scored 43 points crazily, seemed to be shaking and shaking.

At this time, the picture on the TV is Wade, while the data on the TV is Duncan and Chris Bosh.

Chris Bosh played 28 minutes, 5 of 0, 0 points!

Duncan was given 10 blocks in the first six games. The supernova power forward, known as the Little Wolf King, was blocked by Duncan in the entire game!

Opposite Duncan, he was 13 of 23 and 9 of 11 free throws. He scored 35 points, 18 rebounds, 4 steals and 3 blocks in the game.

What is collapse?

This is collapse!

When the optimistic little wolf king Bosh was beaten by Duncan in the fourth quarter, he was sitting on the bench and was already crying.

After the game, Wade, who was trembling, looked at the somewhat dumb figure not far away. At this time, Chen Xiao's mind was full of reminders to him.

At this time, Wade's heart is full of regret.

"Is this Duncan?"

"Is this the gap between No. 1 supernova power forward Chris Bosh and Duncan?"

Such a gap makes Wade feel desperate.

In this game, he has killed his knees as if he lost consciousness.

In this game, Yao made 8 of 12, 12 of 12 free throws, 28 points and 12 rebounds. The efficiency was already extremely high.

But there is still no way to make up for Duncan's damage to Chris Bosh and the Heat's power forward position.

When Duncan was standing next to Parker, Ginobili, and Tracy McGrady, you couldn’t double-team Duncan. Although Yao Ming was not slow but not so fast, they could only watch him continue to ravage him. Bosh and the Heat's power forward.

"we lose……"

Wade closed his eyes unwillingly.

Yao Ming bit his lip unwillingly.

Chris Bosh was still hiding his face.

Tony Allen squatted on the ground and stroked the floor.

Odom lowered his head, his eyes rolled, pretending to be sad.

Payton sighed again blankly, and failed to hold his legs again.

On the Magic side, there was constant laughter, and all the players respected and consciously surrounded Duncan.

Except for this game, he made 8 of 19, 0 of 4 three-pointers, 4 of 6 free throws, and scored 20 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists.

Although Duncan has always said that the Magic is McGrady's team, it depends on the condition of these teammates.

Magic, is it really my team?

McGrady was a little dazed, and his sleepy eyes became even more hazy.

In fact, in this game, his performance was also very good, but everyone only saw Duncan's brutal suppression of Bosh, did not see his hard defense with his long arm, making Wade 11 of 28 in the game.

but……

The team won.

We are in the Eastern Conference again.

McGrady ran out of his mind the complicated thoughts in his mind.

On May 24, 2005, under the witness of Chen Xiao and the Cavaliers players, the fourth Magic team in the East defeated the Heat 98-95 on the away game. The defending champion was once again under the leadership of Duncan. , Entered the Eastern Conference Finals, and at the same time, once again became an opponent of the Cavaliers.

The Eastern Conference finals last season was a game between the Cavaliers and the Magic.

In last season's Eastern Conference Finals, Chen Xiao played 50+ games in a row and almost defeated the Magic.

In the end, Duncan moved from the center to the power forward position to suppress Chen Xiao~www.NovelMTL.com~ The Magic finally overtook 4 to 3, and finally reached the finals and won the championship.

And now, after a season, the Cavaliers and Magic once again met in the Eastern Conference Finals.

What kind of sparks will this produce?

Because of Duncan's strong suppression of Chris Bosh, the number one power forward under the five major forwards, in the tie-break with the Heat, the Magic can now be described as optimistic.

The series has not started yet, Chen Xiao and the others feel the tremendous pressure.

"West Wolf King, East Stone Buddha, these two are really the gods of the NBA."

Teacher Zhang couldn't help sighing.

Especially the East Stone Buddha, who has already sent away Dayao, this time, will Xiao Chen be sent away again, right?
