I’m Really Playing Basketball

After the Warriors advanced first, everyone is looking forward to the NBA's awards season.

However, the expectation is the expectation, and the results of the other duels in the first round also need to come out.

After the Warriors took the lead in sweeping the Timberwolves to advance, the Clippers, the second in the West, and the Bucks, the first in the East, also eliminated the Trail Blazers and Pacers by a big score of 4 to 1, respectively.

After that, the third-placed Spurs in the West, the fourth-placed Jazz in the West, and the second-placed Bobcats in the East also defeated the Lakers 4-2, and the Suns and the New York Knicks entered the conference semifinals.

After these 6 teams advanced, the remaining 2 matchups all entered the tiebreaker.

The Cavaliers third in the East and the Raptors sixth in the East, Oden and Milicic, the foes of the Olympic Games, are still inseparable in this year's playoffs.

Although the overall strength of the Cavaliers is higher than that of the Raptors, Milicic blew up Oden, making the strength gap between the two sides very small.

In the end, the two teams reached the tiebreaker.

The Boston Celtics, the fourth in the East, and the Wizards, the fifth in the East, finally reached the tiebreaker. The head of the Wizards, James Harden, performed very well in the playoffs. Six games and the Celtics bite.

Therefore, many people think that the Celtics tiebreaker will be very dangerous. After all, the performance of the Wizards this season, James Harden's performance this season is indeed very good.

but…

When the tiebreaker between the Celtics and the Wizards took the lead, James Harden, who was expected by everyone in the game, stunned the entire NBA and the United States with his hip pulling performance in the tiebreaker.

In the six games before the playoffs, James Harden, who averaged 29 points per game, not only did not have a stronger combat effectiveness in this tiebreaker, but even declined, and the decline was very large.

The game was 2 of 11 and only scored 10 points.

He scored 1 of 2 in the first half and 1 of 9 in the second half. If you say that he is a super-giant player who can average 29+11+7 per game in the regular season, then you must be an insult to the super-giant.

As a super-giant player, it's still a tiebreaker. No matter how bad you feel, even if you're hard chisel, you won't be able to hit such a number of shots and score.

Therefore, after the end of the tiebreaker between the Wizards and the Celtics, James Harden was ridiculed by a large number of NBA fans, especially fans of the New York Knicks.

Well, why point out the Knicks fans?

Because James Harden and Westbrook are about the same age, have similar strengths, and have similar statistics, in this case, the two belong to the East, and they have to compete for the best team, compete for the All-Star together, and the relationship between players. , The relationship between fans is difficult to be so harmonious.

In fact, fans of James Harden and Westbrook are enemies.

In the first round of the playoffs, when Westbrook led the Knicks to be eliminated by Rose's Bobcats, Wizards fans mocked Westbrook's efficiency in the playoffs.

The shooting rate is less than 39%, and the three-point shooting rate is less than 27%. The scoring efficiency of the playoffs is really only seen in history. It is too iron, especially after comparing it with Rose, it is very obvious.

So after the Knicks were eliminated by the Bobcats, many James Harden fans said that the Knicks were eliminated by Westbrook. No matter how good Anthony played, it was useless.

Now that James Harden is pulling his hips like this, he naturally wants to fight back.

That's why many Knicks fans said, "No matter how tough my family is, they won't be so soft!"

Yes, although Turtle Shao's first-round shooting percentage was solid, he averaged 30 shots per game and averaged 37.5 points, 11 assists, 11.5 rebounds and 2.5 steals per game.

As far as this data is concerned, if you ignore the shooting percentage, in the history of the NBA, only Chen Xiao has played in the playoffs and in a series.

This data is really quite top.

But obviously, the NBA game can never ignore the shooting percentage, and even the shooting percentage is one of the most important statistics in basketball games.

Unlike the tiebreaker of the Wizards and Celtics, the tiebreaker between the Cavaliers and the Raptors was too exciting.

In the tiebreaker, Oden, who pulled his hips for the entire series and was beaten by Milicic for a series, finally came out of the muddle of the whole season at the last moment of the game.

In the end, together with James, he led the Cavaliers to defeat the Raptors 110-105 and won the final Game 7 victory.

There is so much to say about this game.

The most worthy of mention is undoubtedly that at the end of the first half, James hugged Oden fiercely when the team was already 10 points behind. Oden made 4 of 11 in the half and was beaten by Milley. When Cickey was lying down again, he didn't blame him, didn't say anything harsh, didn't look at Auden with so-called murderous eyes, but only encouraged hugs.

In this series, James really used his all to support Oden to regain his confidence and form.

Before the start of this game, James's data in the first six games was an average of 36 points, 12 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.5 blocks, with a shooting rate of 58% and a three-point shooting rate of 48%, averaging 3.3 three-pointers per game.

In this series, James played the best series of his career. If it wasn't for James' excellent performance in this series, the Cavaliers would not have been able to drag the Raptors into the Game 7 in the end.

It is precisely because of James' efforts in this series that Oden saw it in his eyes, and was finally moved, and finally came out of the shadow of the Olympics, and faced Oden in the second half. The next 18 points finally led the Cavaliers to complete the reversal with James.

For Auden, when you are in a downturn, there is always a person by your side to shield you from the wind and rain, fight for you, cheer for you, work hard for you, no matter how soft your heart is, when this person falls into despair, You will also get hard.

In the end, Auden did finally win against Milicic.

Chen Xiao watched the tiebreaker between the Cavaliers and the Raptors.

After watching it, there are only two feelings. One is of course that his family's Xiao Zhan is really great. In this series, Xiao Zhan's leadership and comrade-in-arms are almost full. Of course, in the end, it must be Oden's Favorability and support are full.

Another feeling is that Oden, who came out, may not necessarily go from the A+ level to the S level, but his combat effectiveness will still be greatly increased.

For Oden, this season, he has really experienced a process from **** to rebirth.

He was thrown into **** by Milicic and Jokic, and then pulled out of **** by James.

With such a player, combined with his strength and talent, what can't he expect in the future?

It can be said that the 29-year-old Auden can officially enter his peak from now on.

And his rebirth may be the biggest variable in this year's playoffs.

This is definitely no joke.

The Cavaliers are not only the nemesis of the Warriors, but also the nemesis of the Bucks.

If the Cavaliers really defeated the Bobcats in the conference semifinals and reached the Eastern Conference finals, can the Bucks, without a big center and no traditional insiders, really be able to withstand the Cavaliers?

If the Cavaliers make it to the Finals, can the Warriors stand up to the Cavaliers?

This is really not so easy to say. Of course, the resistance of the Warriors to the Cavaliers is definitely greater than the resistance of the Bucks to the Cavaliers.

After all, the Warriors still have two traditional insiders, Jokic and Thick Eyebrows.

And now Chen Xiao can actually be regarded as an inside player with traditional inside ability.

However, the finals are still far away, and it is only the semifinals of the division.

After the eight-group matchup in the first round ended, the four-group matchup in the Eastern and Western Divisional Finals also came out.

The No. 1 Warriors in the Western Conference face the No. 4 Jazz in the Western Conference.

The second-placed Clippers in the West face off against the third-placed Spurs.

On the east side, the Bucks, the No. 1 team in the East, will face the Celtics, the No. 4 team in the East.

The Bobcats, the second-placed Eastern Conference team, faced the third-placed Cavaliers.

It can be seen from these four games in the two divisions that in the first round, the top seeded teams all won in the end.

Although the process was a little easy and a little difficult, the result was not unpopular.

It can only be said that in the current NBA, although a hundred flowers are blooming, the top teams are indeed stronger.

The NBA originally had ten super teams. Now, although the Warriors and Bucks are the only super teams left, the super teams here are relative.

In fact, compared to other teams, the Bobcats, Cavaliers, Clippers and Spurs are also super teams.

And the Celtics and Jazz have no problem with the previous Bulls.

Of course, having said that, compared to other teams, the Jazz and Celtics in the second round are still relatively weak.

So when many experts predict the second round, most of the experts think that the series between the Warriors and the Bucks will end within five games.

A 4-0 sweep is a high probability, while a 4-1 gentleman sweep is a small probability. As for six games or more? This is almost impossible.

Relatively speaking, most experts predict that the Cavaliers and Bobcats, Spurs and Clippers will play at least six games.

The Cavaliers and the Bobcats have been touching each other for years, and the two teams are very familiar.

As for the Clippers and Spurs, it was the Clippers who destroyed the Spurs last season and rebuilt the Spurs.

Many people say that Leonard is going to avenge last year's revenge this time. After all, last year Leonard was hurt by the Clippers' Granger.

At the same time, after the end of the playoffs last year, the Spurs' veteran Spurs Parker, who was mad at Leonard in the Spurs locker room, is now in the Clippers.

So this matchup between the Clippers and the Spurs is more exciting and topical.

Therefore, whether the final result of the experts' prediction for the division semifinal matchup is really the case, then we need to look at the future games after the start of the game.

This is actually a question mark.

Before the semi-finals of the division start, everyone's attention is also on this year's awards season.

This year's awards season is actually not only interesting for MVP, but other awards are also very interesting.

Let's just say the first award given out this year, the Best Rookie Award.

The final winner of the best rookie is Zhou Qi, an insider of the Hornets.

This player who entered the league is a B+ player. After being educated by Chen Xiao, he played diligently and trained hard. As Chen Xiao's apprentice, after playing for a full season, although he failed to lead the Hornets to the playoffs (the worst was still in the playoffs). Quite far), but because of the season reimbursement of No. 1 pick Simmons and the discomfort of No. 2 Ingram, he finally beat the Bucks, who averaged 9.9 points per game, and the Nets, with 14.5 points and 7.8 rebounds per game. Ingram, who averaged 9.4 points per game, was named Rookie of the Year.

At the same time, Zhou Qi was selected to the Rookie First Team along with Embiid, Ingram, Brogdon and the Warriors' Jaylen Brown.

By the way, the most powerful rookie this year is actually Embiid from Philadelphia. This season he averaged 20.2 points per game in 25 minutes per game. The reason why he failed to win the Rookie of the Year is because he played. 31 games.

After this draft, he has been seriously injured, and the young center who did not pay until this season has shown that his strength and potential are not inferior to his online combat effectiveness.

Well, Embiid, a young man on the Internet, is also a person who can smack the air like Durant.

And Zhou Qi became the Chinese player who won the best rookie after Chen Xiao.

The Chinese, Chen Xiao, the best rookie, this kind of association is the attention.

After the Rookie of the Year, this year's Sixth Man of the Year was taken away by Devin Booker of the Warriors. Devin Booker scored 72 points and a lore in a single game this season. It can be said that It is one of the craziest stats this season, and it is also the famous and representative work of his career. This game is enough for him to get this award, not to mention that he is the highest scoring player off the bench in an 82-win team.

The most improved player this season was awarded to Antetokounmpo of the Bucks. Antetokounmpo has improved in points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks this season, and his average points per game have also reached 21. Points, performance is very good, this season, Antetokounmpo has surpassed Dream Chasing Green to become the Bucks' well-deserved third-in-command.

This year's Defensive Player of the Year was won by Ibaka. Ibaka's average 4.1 blocks per game this season is really amazing. Although he didn't lead the team to the playoffs, I don't blame him to be honest. , averaged 20 points and 4.1 blocks per game, and almost squeezed into the playoffs with the king, which is already very good.

And this year's defensive first team is Chen Xiao, Ibaka, Leonard, Wade and Roger.

This year's defensive second team is Milicic, Antetokounmpo, Dream Chaser Green, Xiaopao and Rose.

This is Chen Xiao's 14th consecutive defensive first team, and it is also the first time that Chen Xiao and Wade Roger have been selected for the first team together.

Well, to be fair, there is no problem with Luo Ge's defensive first and Chen Xiao's defensive first, but Wade's defensive first is indeed a bit controversial, and Xiaopao may be more suitable.

But obviously, in terms of the theme of this year's NBA, this little controversy is not controversial at all.

This is the bottom line for an 80-win team!

It can only be said that the Warriors' record this season is too foul.

After the award of the best defensive player and the first defensive team, the main event is finally coming.

Although the result is very clear to everyone, when the result came out, it still made the whole NBA boil.

"The player who won the 2016-2017 NBA regular season MVP is - G3!

Xiao-Chen!

Wade!

Ron Howard! "

When David Stern shouted out this string, he was also very excited.

"Twelve years ago, when Chen Xiao, Wade and James won the MVP together, I told myself that it would be the last time the NBA will be tied for MVP. Now, congratulations, you have slapped me in the face, this year The 122 judges, the first vote, all voted for G3!"

Yes, if the last time the league was tied, it was a man-made operation by David Stern out of justice, but this time, it was the deliberate operation of the judges.

Of course, this must also have a lot to do with David Stern. After all, he hinted that in one season, all the best of the month in the Western Conference were given to G3. That's all, any fool knows how to do it.

It should be said that if you want to play in the NBA and want to be a judge in the future, you should do it.

Even if you don't do it, David Stern has the ability to make these three juxtaposed.

Count G3 separately from Chen Xiao, Wade, and Ron Howard.

Even if you voted for Chen Xiao Wade and Ron Howard, you can't compare to G3. No one can beat G3 as a whole.

Of course, in the end, David Stern didn't do this step. This year's judges are indeed very powerful and winking.

G3 unanimous MVP.

After the results of the regular season MVP, the league's best lineup this season, the Warriors also became the biggest winner.

The best lineup of the year.

A burst of center, Chen Xiao, forward Durant, UU reading www.uukanshu. com James, guard Wade, Ron Howard.

Second team center, Milicic, forward Leonard, thick eyebrows, guard, Paul, Rose

Three-team center, Cousins, forward Antetokounmpo, Klay, guard, Curry, Kobe

All five Warriors players averaging 20 or more points per game were selected to the All-NBA team.

Then another bright spot is that this season, Westbrook and James Harden, who have been arguing for the best team this season, both ultimately lost to the best team.

The best team was given to Kobe.

For this result, Westbrook fans and James Harden fans must be very depressed.

Co-authoring this season, white and black, have you?

So far, Chen Xiao has also won the fifth regular season MVP of his career, 5 regular season MVPs, 8 finals MVPs, 15 first team games, and 14 first defense.

This honor is simply described as an explosion.

At the same time, this is also Wade's 3rd regular season MVP, 3 MVPs, 1 Finals MVP, and 3 boss championships.

Wade's big honor is also very high.

And this MVP is also the second regular season MVP of Roger's career, 2 MVPs, 2 FMVPs, 12 first team, 13 first defense, 2 best defensive player.

The honor of Brother Luo is also quite terrifying.
