The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 195 Eastern Conference Finals

The defending champion Lakers actually fell in the division semifinals, and they were swept 4:0 in such a shameful way, most people did not expect it at all.

This season is a chaotic season. The rise of the Wizards, the composition of the Heat's Big Three and the Knicks' Big Three all have a huge impact on the Lakers' road to defending the title. Many people think that Kobe's second three consecutive championships may go far up.

But most people are more inclined that the Lakers and Kobe will fall in the finals, losing to the former No. 23 and his two brothers.

No one would have thought that the Lakers would lose to the Mavericks.

The road to the Lakers' dynasty collapsed, and the situation in the West immediately became confusing.

The Mavericks beat the Lakers 4-0 to advance to the Western Conference finals, while the other group of opponents in the conference finals was the San Antonio Spurs and Portland Trail Blazers.

Due to Roy's injury this season, the Trail Blazers only led the team with Durant and Aldridge. , The team still successfully survived the first round and reached the conference semifinals.

On the other side, their opponent is the No. 1 Spurs in the Western Conference regular season who should have been eliminated by the Black Eight in another time and space.

Butterfly effect is so magical, due to the appearance of Wang Xiao and the selection of Durant in the 2007 draft, it directly changed the situation in the West. The Blazers, who were ill and unable to recover after a setback, became a powerful force in the West.

Originally, the Memphis Grizzlies should be ranked eighth in the Western Conference this year, but now the eighth position in the Western Conference is occupied by the Thunder.

This is the first time in several years that the Thunder missed Durant to enter the playoffs.

In the past few years, Oden suffered from constant injuries. Although Westbrook performed well, he was alone. Last year, Wang Xiao intercepted Harden and had no choice but to choose Evans. However, his record still did not improve. This season, Deng En, Wang Xiao's disciple, was selected, relying on Dunn's strong frame protection and block blocking ability, he can stand out from the strong West.

Such a Thunder team had no resistance against the Spurs, and was eliminated, and the Spurs escaped from being hacked by the Grizzlies.

In the second round, the Spurs naturally had the upper hand against Durant's Trail Blazers. The current score between the two sides is 3:1, and the Spurs already hold the match point.

In this way, nine times out of ten the Western Conference Finals will be a battle between horses and bulls.

The finals in the Eastern Conference will basically be a duel between the Wizards and the Heat, which is far from the war between the Big Three that people had previously expected.

Also holding a 3:1 advantage, Wang Xiao originally wanted to directly eliminate the Celtics 4:1 in one go, but he failed to do so.

Although trailing 3:1, the Celtics did not give up, and there was even a hint of a Jedi counterattack. The fifth game between the two sides was extremely fierce. In the end, the Celtics relied on Ray Allen's The quasi-lore three-pointer reversed the game and won the game, which also dragged the score to 3:2.

But that's the limit.

In the sixth game, the Wizards did not give the Celtics another chance.

Curry, who had been suppressed for five games, finally bottomed out. In this game, he shot all kinds of unreasonable fairy three-pointers. No matter how many people defended, no matter what method was used to defend, Curry could not be contained. shot.

Scored 26 points in a single quarter, 33 points in the half, and 47 points in the game!

Curry ended the Celtics' hope of a comeback in an almost cheating way, and also fixed the score at 4:2.

The Wizards are officially close to the Eastern Conference Finals! The opponent in the Eastern Conference Finals was the Heat who eliminated the Bulls with a big score of 4:1.

Wizards VS Heat.

Such a duel made many commentators hesitate.

According to the tendency of most people, the Wizards on the Heat side should have the upper hand, and James Wade Bosh's Big Three combination should also be invincible and have no opponents in the Eastern Conference.

But the fact that the regular season was swept by the Wizards is something no one can ignore.

No matter which team the Heat lose to in the regular season, they can be forgiven, and even being swept by other teams in the regular season can also be explained by the reason of retaining strength in the regular season.

But the contest with the Wizards in the regular season cannot be covered up with such an excuse.

Wang Xiao's mockery of the Heat was really heartbreaking.

"The Heat's Big Three? I haven't heard of it. I've only heard of the Celtics' Big Three."

"Beating the Heat? Isn't this a matter of course? What is the difference between winning this team and eating and drinking water?"

"I don't want to hear any questions about the Heat anymore. Whoever has to talk about every meal will get tired of it over time."

Under the provocation of Wang Xiao, the Heat tried their best and failed to win a victory from the Wizards. It can almost be said that they have lost face. How could there be any possibility of releasing water to retain their strength?

What's more, the Wizards at this stage can already be called the killer of the Big Three. They swept the Big Three of the Knicks in the first round, and ended the Big Three of the Celtics in six games in the second round. Now they are facing the Big Three of the Heat. , It's really hard to predict the format of the game.

...

No matter what the external media commented, reaching the Eastern Conference Finals for the second consecutive year, such a result has made Wizards fans not know how to describe their feelings.

Regardless of whether the team can defeat the Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals and reach the finals, it is enough for the fans of the Wizards.

The Wizards lineup is too young, so young that it is hard to imagine what kind of horror these players will grow up to be.

Curry, Harden, and Paul George, who made a sudden effort in the Celtics series and completely defeated All-Star small forward Pierce in the matchup...

What fans are curious about now is how long it will take for such a Wizards team to win the O'Brien Cup. Many people believe that this day will not be too long, and there is even a great possibility this year, as long as they can win the O'Brien Cup. The Big Three of the Heat entered the finals.

...

The Eastern Conference finals begin on May 17.

The Washington Wizards will host the Miami Heat.

"The Heat are old rivals."

In the Wizards locker room, Wang Xiao was mobilizing the players before the game.

But this time in his speech, he did not put too much pressure on the players, but looked very relaxed.

"It's just a group of defeated players. We can beat them in the regular season, and the playoffs are also fine." Wang Xiao looked at Curry and said with a smile: "During the Eastern Conference Finals last year, you couldn't play because of injuries. , I can see that you are still brooding, today is the best time for you to vent, teach those guys a lesson."
