I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 487: The golden age of the NBA!

Chapter 492 The golden age of NBA!

April 8, 2007, Miami, American Airlines Arena.

When Chen Xiao came here with the Bobcats players, he found a very magical phenomenon. The Heat fans, who have always been the laziest fans in the NBA fan group, actually filled the arena in advance before the game started. NS.

How incredible this is!

You should know that in the finals of last season, the Heat fell behind 0-2 at home in the second game. With one remaining period of the game, the Heat fans on the scene had already given up and left early.

So that in the finals of last season, Heat fans were ridiculed as the first to give up the Miami Heat.

Well, in the case of a 0-2 lag, the Heat's players have not given up, but the Heat's fans have already given up.

So, after the Heat won four consecutive games, the Heat fans were quite embarrassed.

After embarrassment, the Heat fans said that they will not give up the team early in the future.

What said, it is really just listen to it. Maybe the Heat fans were sincere when they said it, but sincerity has never been lasting.

So, in the regular season of this season, when the game is playing, the Heat fans have sprouted again.

So, don't look at the Heat's record this season so well, but the Heat fans are still lazy, as if the Heat's super record can't arouse their enthusiasm.

For such a group of fans, this game can fill the arena before the start of the game, which is indeed an incredible thing.

So the question is, why did the Heat's fans suddenly change **** in this game?

Of course, because before the start of this game, the Heat's record was 69 wins and 7 losses. This game against the Bobcats will be a milestone for the Heat to hit 70 wins this season.

Although there have been a lot of 70 wins in the past few seasons, the Nets have 72 wins in the 0203 season and the Bucks have 73 wins in the 0506 season. In addition to the Heat this season, the Nets and Bobcats have hoped to achieve 70 wins. , So 70 wins in the regular season now seems to be less sacred in the NBA.

Well, the Bucks’ 73-win round last season completely shattered the sacred halo of 70 wins. However, for the NBA, the emergence of 70 wins is something that deserves everyone’s attention and focus. Especially for the fans of the team.

There have been three 70-win teams in the history of the NBA, but for the Heat, this is the first time.

So, even the lazy Americans are Americans, and the nature of watching the excitement cannot be changed.

This match between the Heat and the Bobcats not only aroused the enthusiasm of Miami fans, but also the enthusiasm for this match in other parts of the United States and China.

After all, another 70-win team is about to be born.

After all, this team is still led by Chinese players.

"In this game, Yao and the Heat have a great chance of completing 70 wins at home. Although the strength of the Heat and the Bobcats are very, very close this season, the Heat still have the advantage of playing the Bobcats. Facing the Yao, Zachlan Dove and Bynum did not perform very well every time. Many domestic fans say that the Bobcats have always played three against four when playing the Heat. Of course, this is a joke, but it can also be seen that the Bobcats are always Hit the Heat’s dilemma again and again."

Xiaosu looked at Dayao and Chen Xiao who were greeting each other on the court, and said seriously.

And Teacher Zhang next to him is nodding constantly.

Xiaosu is telling the fact that every time the Bobcats play with the Heat, the pace of the game is severely choked by the Heat.

The main reason is Yao's restraint on Bynum and Randolph.

Randolph vs. Yao is equivalent to Paul vs. Deron.

Bynum vs. Yao is equivalent to Paul vs. 2 Deron.

So, these two people are on the court, most of the time, it is not very useful for the Bobcats, and they also block the space of Chen Xiao and other outside players on the inside.

But, because the Heat have a super strong inside offense like Dayao, the Bobcats can’t even play Bynum.

This directly caused the Bobcats to be very difficult to play against the Heat. Basically, they tied one of their hands before the game started.

If it hadn’t been for the Bobcats to supplement Roy’s perimeter strength this season, let’s put it this way, the Bobcats don’t need to watch the Heat, and waking up in 48 minutes would definitely be another abuse.

And this is why many domestic experts feel that the Heat will have a very high probability of defending this season.

Playing a seven-game series, it is difficult for the Bobcats to win the Heat four games.

Similarly, although the Nets are difficult to play, but because the Heat have Yao Ming and Chris Bosh, the two inside offensive strengths, the Heat are the best team in the league to break the five forwards, and they don’t even need one.

Perhaps the Heat hit the Nets also very inked, but the probability of the Heat winning in the end is high.

The five strongest teams this season.

The Spurs, Bobcats, Nets, and Heat all have great winning percentages.

Maybe only magic is an unknown factor.

The Magic replaced Tracy McGrady in exchange for Big Ben and Prince Hamilton. They did not play well in the regular season this season.

Up to now in the regular season, the Bobcats, Heat, and Nets all have a chance of 70 wins, while the Magic's current record is 61 wins and 15 losses. This record cannot be said to be not very good.

But it really doesn’t match everyone’s expectations of them.

After all, Chen Xiao has been saying that the Magic is the strongest team in the league.

You can’t always be the strongest in the regular season, but will be the strongest in the playoffs, right?

However, spit out the case. The Magic's record against the Heat this season is indeed 50-50.

So, many Chinese experts say that as long as the Heat can pass the Magic this year, the Heat will surely defend the championship.

It can be seen how optimistic about the Heat this season in China.

In fact, in the United States, most experts are also optimistic about the Heat.

After all, the Heat’s performance this season is really great.

After the warm-ups and greetings of the two teams, the starting lineups of the two teams also appeared on the court.

The starting lineup of the Bobcats in this game, center Bynum, power forward Zach Randolph, small forward Granger, shooting guard Chen Xiao, point guard Paul.

On the Heat’s side, the center is Yao Ming, the power forward is Bosh, the small forward is Antoine Walker, the shooting guard is Tony Allen, and the point guard is Wade.

Compared with the previous encounters between the two teams, the starting lineup has not changed much.

This is also a feature of the regular season. Basically, a team rarely has a specific arrangement when facing a specific opponent.

This is also the reason why the regular season record is often only a reference.

Without targeted arrangements, there will be no soul of the NBA playoffs.

However, for the audience, they don’t care about the specific playoff intensity of the Heat and the Bobcats. For the audience, the matchup between the Heat and the Bobcats at this time is really too interesting.

"Five years ago, when Wonder Boy, Wade, and Yao Ming entered the league together, who would have thought that the three of them would achieve such an incredible achievement in the NBA?"

"The 2002 draft they led five years ago is considered to be one of the worst drafts in NBA history, but five years later, the rookies of this year appeared as Wonder Boys, Wade, Yao Ming, Superstars like Ron Howard and Amal Stoudemire also appeared in elite players such as Boozer, Jie Williams, Caron Butler, Nene, Luis Scola, Prince, etc. In addition, there are super role players such as Matt Barnes, Braxon and Travisdina."

"When the Heat scored 69 wins and 7 losses this season, the Bobcats scored 66 wins and 11 losses, and the two teams ranked first and third in the NBA, it means that the 2002 rookies have begun to dominate. The whole NBA!"

"On Wonder Boy, Yao Ming and Wade, I saw Jordan and OK live in an era!"

As the live commentator of this game, Barkley is very excited now, and what he said is quite exciting to the American audience in front of the TV.

Chen Xiao and Yao Ming Wade, it seems that Jordan and OK are in the same era?

This is really interesting.

Chen Xiao is very strong. As the first player in the league and the tenth star in history at the age of 24, Chen Xiao certainly compares with Jordan.

The combination of Wade and Yao Ming also compares well with the combination of OK.

The result of the comparison is, of course, in terms of hard power. Chen Xiao may be a bit worse than Jordan, and Wade and Yao Ming are also a bit worse than OK.

Chen Xiao is indeed a little worse than Jordan, but the OK combination has never played a record like the Heat this season.

Therefore, Barkley’s statement is indeed acceptable.

Chen Xiao may not be able to compare with Jordan, but Jordan himself said yes, that's it.

Wade and Yao Ming can definitely be compared with OK.

So, when the three teams may reach 70 wins this season, many experts in the NBA are exclaiming that the NBA has entered a golden age.

Has the NBA entered a golden age?

This can be said to be affirmative.

In fact, after these experts called out the golden age of the NBA, these people immediately counted the five seasons from the 02-03 season to the present.

After taking the inventory, it is obvious that the people and teams who started the golden age of the NBA are Chen Xiao and the Nets in the 0203 season.

It was precisely because of the 72 wins of Chen Xiao and the Nets, that the playoffs were completely defeated and OK, that led to everything that happened later. Because of Chen Xiao, O'Neal and the Nets formed the strongest F7, because of Chen Xiao and Duncan Dong. You Orlando and McGrady formed a DM combination. Because of Chen Xiao, the unwilling Ray Allen started a basketball storm that has never been seen in NBA history.

It is also because of Chen Xiao that the Nets can form five forwards like Carter, Marion, Joe Johnson, Martin and Richard Jefferson that make Pat Riley's heart fascinating.

Plus the Heat of Wade and Yao Ming, Ron Howard and Arenas’ Spurs, Garnett’s Timberwolves, Kobe’s Lakers, O’Neal’s Suns, Nash’s Raptors and so on.

These teams have a chance to become the hegemon in any era in the history of the NBA.

But these teams, but got together and appeared in the same era.

Therefore, there is no doubt that the current NBA is the strongest golden age in NBA history. This is not only evidenced by the record of the strong teams in these five seasons, but also can be seen from the ratings of the NBA in the last five seasons. .

In the past five seasons, the ratings of the NBA have been very good. Not only the Chen Xiao team's game ratings are good, but the game ratings of other teams are also very good.

Although fans do not have a strong understanding of basketball, there is no doubt that fans are not fools. They can tell what kind of game is good.

When in the NBA every day for a season, there will be the Heat playing the Bobcats, the Heat playing magic, the Heat playing the Nets, the Heat playing the Spurs, the Bobcats playing the Spurs, the Bobcats playing magic, the Bobcats playing the Nets, the Bobcats playing the Lakers, the Bobcats playing the Timberwolves, and the Bobcats playing the Raptors. When the Bobcats play the Cavaliers, the Bobcats play the Nuggets and so on, it is hard for fans not to pay attention or not to watch.

It can be said that according to the fans, every national live broadcast this season is full of highlights.

This season’s NBA’s national live broadcast, none of the games are water.

Every game is exceptionally exciting, even if the Lakers play the Nuggets and Iverson play Kobe, this is the top game in the NBA five years ago. There are four games this season, and not every game has a national broadcast. .

When the NBA entered its golden age, it was not the contribution of one team and two teams, but a group of teams and the rise of a group of players.

So, in the face of such a grand scene, not only the fans enjoy it, but the players also enjoy the competition.

In the middle of the field, in the exclamation and cheers of the Heat fans, Bynum beat Yao Ming with a jump ball and won the first offense for the Bobcats in the game.

Every time against Yao Ming, the jump ball at the beginning of the game is the pinnacle of Bynum's game.

Because after this jump ball, the next time he will be slammed by Yao Ming.

After Bynum jumped the ball, Paul dribbled the ball and pushed it through the half court. Under Wade's harassment, Paul's possession of the ball was still quite stable.

However, after Paul dribbled the ball steadily past half-court, he did not see the opportunity to attack the first time.

Tony Allen's defense against Chen Xiao is very deadly.

Tony Allen's defense has a great reputation in the NBA this season. The defense is fierce, but it is not dirty. He can't attack. The players he defends also don't think about good offense.

This is the reason why the Heat games are all 4 on 4.

However, as the first man in the league, Chen Xiao certainly will not be frightened by Tony Allen's defense.

In the case that Xiao Pao and his teammates did not have a chance, Chen Xiao immediately came out and jammed Tony Allen to catch the ball. After receiving the ball, Chen Xiao opened the space and Tony Allen posted again.

Tony Allen is one of the rare defensive players in the NBA who is not afraid of being broken even when defending close to the body, because his defensive skills and athletic talent are very good.

There are very few perimeter defensive players in the NBA who have Tony Allen's defensive skills and his athleticism.

So, Tony Allen is definitely one of the strongest perimeter defensive players in the NBA. This is what Ron Howard and Arenas two Spurs superstars in the finals of last season have certified.

A defensive player who is not afraid of being passed, in the NBA, it is simply a bug.

Faced with such a bug-type defensive player, many offensive players in the NBA are uncomfortable, even without means.

But Chen Xiao is different.

Compared with before, mainly compared with before the All-Star, Chen Xiao's biggest change is the enhancement of one-on-one offensive ability.

Facing Tony Allen who was pasted again, Chen Xiao dribbled the ball from behind and then turned and broke through, passing the pasted Tony Allen directly!

Seeing Chen Xiao's super dribble under the incredibly silky and incredible high-intensity defense, the audience exclaimed.

"This is too sassy!"

"I have never seen Tony being so clean!"

Swipe!

After Chen Xiao passed Tony Allen, he immediately took a long two-pointer from the three-point line and hit 2-0!

Chen Xiao didn't dare to have more luck, because as long as he had one more luck, Tony Allen would post it again.

This is the difference when playing against strong defensive players.

Playing against defensive players, Chen Xiao can adjust his offense very calmly, but against players like Tony Allen, Chen Xiao needs to be concise and fast in every offense.

This is a very big test for offensive players.

"It's amazing, Xiao Chen now is really amazing!"

Yao Ming admired Chen Xiao as such an extraordinary person, and Wade next to Yao Ming also kept nodding his head.

"After all, the first person in the league."

Wade smiled.

The first man in the league, Chen is really more and more well-deserved.

In the entire league, perhaps only Chen can treat Tony like this.

"Judging from the singles of Wonder Boy against Tony Allen just now, the singles of Wonder Boy seem to be stronger, and the strength gap between the Bobcats and the Heat has also become smaller!"

"However, at the beginning of this game, the Bobcats performed the magic boy magic trick. This is not a good sign!"

"After the game started, the Heat increased the intensity of the game very much!"

"After all, in this game, the Heat are going to win 70!"

Just after Barkley in the commentary on the sidelines shouted, on the court, the Heat attacked.

After picking and rolling with Yao Ming, Wade blocked Chen Xiao and faced Bynum's defense, passing Bynum like a plume of smoke. After Bynum, Wade suddenly made a free throw. One step in the line, there was an emergency stop and a leaning back ~www.NovelMTL.com~ Bynum, who was rushing back to the defense, couldn't stop the car at all, and directly hit Wade with a bang.

Beep beep!

brush!

Goal in!

Add penalty!

3 to 2!

Looking at the Heat's offense this round, Jordan on the sidelines was silent.

The first wave of offense in this game, the Heat are catching Bynum.

Generally speaking, in regular season games, opponents rarely target a certain point.

But obviously, the Heat did not treat this game as an ordinary game.

Indeed, this game is very unusual for the Heat.

Watching the Heat's targeting of Bynum this round, Jordan frowned and felt fortunate.

Heat, for this different game, the bottom is revealed, not much, just a little bit...
