This Forward is Not Serious

Vol 2 Chapter 279: Don't underestimate the heart of a championship

Latest URL:

The two heroes in the east competed for the rankings, and after the chaos in the west, the final result also highlighted the word "chaos".

It was neither the Mavericks nor the Lakers that ranked first in the Western Conference, but the Spurs.

The Spurs secured their second place in the season, winning 61 wins in the final wave, ranking first in the Western Conference.

The Mavericks ranked second in the Western Conference with 60 wins.

The Rockets ranked third in the West with 58 wins.

The addition of Billups allowed the Rockets to record an 18-2 record in the second half of the season, and finally succeeded in overtaking the Lakers.

The Lakers ranked fourth in the East with 57 wins.

The Thunder rank fifth in the Eastern Conference with 55 wins.

Durant averaged 27.7 points per game, winning the season as the scoring leader.

The Suns rushed to 54 wins, but in the end it was still a bit short.

In the fourth season of his career, Lin Ying averaged 21.6 points, 6.2 boards, 7.5 assists, 1.5 blocks, and 1.7 steals per game. The three shooting percentages were 50.2%/91.1%/40.5%.

The Trail Blazers ranked seventh with 48 wins.

The Grizzlies ranked eighth with 46 wins.

It is worth mentioning that although Allen did not go to the Grizzlies as in history, Gay did not suffer an injury in the regular season and was reimbursed for the season.

The Hornets had a final record of 44 wins.

West's reimbursement for the season caused them to lose not only strength, but also fighting spirit.

West has announced that he will be out of the contract early, Paul has also officially confirmed that he will not renew his contract, and the Hornets will face a major reshuffle in the summer.

The first round of the Western Conference playoffs will be Spurs vs. Grizzlies, Mavericks vs. Trail Blazers, Rockets vs. Suns, Lakers vs. Thunder.

There are two teams that have attracted much attention in the West, one is the Lakers Thunder, and the other is the Rockets Suns.

Last year's 3-1 lead was reversed, and Durant's chance of revenge came so soon.

Of course, it is also possible that Durant and his Thunder will be scored twice by the Lakers and Kobe.

If that's the case, then it looks like a new chapter of the Suns and Spurs' grievances.

But this year, when talking about the difficulty, the most difficult thing is the Sun.

The Suns will face the Rockets in the first round!

There is no doubt that after supplementing Billups, the Rockets have become a true champion team.

Yao Ming has a good chance to usher in the first championship of his career this season.

Then, this is the Suns' first-round opponent this season.

This is certainly not the situation the Suns want, but in order to avoid such a situation, the Suns have done all their efforts during the regular season.

Even in order to go a little further, the current state of the team is a bit tired.

However, the Suns are the defending champions after all, and their mentality is still adjusted very quickly.

And the sixth position in the West is too familiar.

Even in a sense, if the first round can be completed, the team's morale will be greatly enhanced.

Because the Rockets have home court advantage, they flew to Houston by plane the day before the game.

Lin Ying's feelings are still a bit deep.

After all, he had already played against the Rockets in the playoffs when he was in the Nuggets.

A positive psychological hint is that he won last time.

On the plane, Gentry announced the starting lineup for the playoffs in advance.

Nash, Allen, Lin Ying, Stoudemire, Oden.

Oden's performance in the second half of the season got better and better, and the last time he gradually stabilized at 20-25 minutes ago, but he has been playing as a substitute.

Now in the playoffs, Gentry has directly arranged him to start!

Needless to say, this is for Yao Ming.

Although Oden's defense against Yao Ming is a leapfrog challenge, the Suns have no more suitable candidate than him.

Moreover, Yao Ming's dominance in the low post has declined after losing weight. He is now more like Gasol's offensive axis, and Oden is not without the opportunity to defend.

After listening to the arrangement, Oden was very excited.

No matter how difficult it is, it's worth being a cannon fodder if you die for a confidant!

On the plane, Lin Ying noticed that McGrady's emotions were also more complicated.

This is understandable.

McGrady's personal peak is in the Magic, but the team's peak is in the Rockets.

It must be a lie to say that he has no feelings for the Rockets.

But although the original departure did not have the disgusting "7 minutes of black" in history, it was unpleasant after all.

Now that the playoffs are facing up, it will definitely be emotionally complicated.

Well, it feels a bit like meeting an ex-girlfriend I loved.

Lin Ying can somewhat understand McGrady's mood, it is different from his encounter with the Nuggets in the playoffs, so he can't say anything.

However, he and Yao Ming met again in the playoffs, and the feeling is also very subtle.

Winning is definitely his goal, and if he can really beat the Rockets, then Yao Ming's departure from the team is basically set.

But with his understanding of Yao Ming, Yao Ming is definitely not a person who concedes defeat easily, especially since the Rockets lineup is so good this season.

Yao Ming wants to win, but Lin Ying does not want to lose as the defending champion.

An extremely tragic battle that can be foreseen.

...

In Houston, Yao Ming and Lin Ying ate at Yao Restaurant.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they talked a lot.

In addition to the upcoming game, the two also deliberately talked about this summer.

As Lin Ying thought before, if the Rockets can't go further, Yao definitely will choose to leave.

Yao Ming is loyal, but he has played for the Rockets for 9 years after this season.

How many 9 years can a player's career last?

He has done everything for the Rockets.

And he was older when he entered the league and is now 31 years old.

If he really wants to leave, it is also likely to be the last stop of his career.

Lin Ying had an idea at this time.

Because at the time of the 2008 Olympics, he thought about the two playing together.

Suggest to Cole in the summer to get Yao Ming to Phoenix after signing the contract?

With his current team status, Cole should consider it.

Of course there are too many unknowns of this kind of thing.

Especially this year, according to this momentum, the alliance has a high probability to usher in a shutdown like in history.

Then make those uncertain factors bigger.

Then the two naturally talked about the London Olympics next year.

That's right, the Olympics are only a little over a year away!

Lin Ying also told Yao Ming that Durant might not play on behalf of the Dream Team.

Yao Ming was also very happy when he heard this.

Although I won the World Championships before, there is nothing more tempting than an Olympic champion!

Even without Durant, it would still be difficult to beat the Olympic dream team, but at least they have a chance.

They also talked about Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian is now playing very well with the Nets.

He played 68 games in 82 games, the highest attendance rate of his career, and 34 of them were starters, averaging 8.5 points, 5.8 boards and 1.2 blocks per game.

Although the data is not particularly dazzling, but his efficiency has reached a career high, the three shooting rate is 46.2%/85.7%/38.4%, all of which are career highs.

This is a qualifying rotation data.

And on the basis of 3d, he still has the ability to "falsely cast real sudden".

After all, he is in the fourth grade just like Lin Ying. No matter whether he can stay in the Nets or not, he will get a new contract with a high probability.

At the end of the talk, the two still talked back to the next first round.

"I know you want to defend your title now, but this time is a game I can't afford to lose."

"I... I am the same."

When the two spoke the last sentence, their eyes were facing each other, and there seemed to be sparks flickering.

In the national team they are teammates, but in the nba arena, they are opponents who can give everything to win!

...

Toyota Center.

The crowd was full, the fans held Yao Ming's kt board high, and a large number of Chinese fans also came to the scene.

Another big highlight of this series is the Chinese Derby.

Of course, the Chinese fans who came to the scene all came to support Yao Ming and the Rockets.

After all, the Rockets are at home, and they have reached the upper half this year, both in terms of state and lineup strength.

Kill the sun, the defending champion, sacrifice the flag, and then win the championship like a broken bamboo?

That must be very exhausting!

When warming up before the game, Yao Ming, Lin Ying, Billups, Nash, Carter, Stoudemire, McGrady and others were constantly shown on the scene.

If it was a few years ago, this star-studded one was also a battle for the All-Star showdown.

Of course, how could Barkley be missing in such an occasion.

With the experience of last year, the "Bali University" is now very familiar with it.

"I have to admit, I have always been a fan of Yao in the past. This guy has built Shaq three times in one round in his rookie season. I knew that day he would become the best center in the league."

The three armies did not move, and the poisoned milk went first.

Fortunately, Kenny Smith, who was on the side, was used to it, and nodded with a smile on the side.

The warm-up soon ended, the scene entered the opening ceremony, and the Suns took the lead as the visiting team.

Nash, Allen, Lin Ying, Stoudemire, Oden.

The Suns’ starting lineup was the same as Gentry’s previous arrangement on the plane.

Immediately after the debut is the home team Rockets.

Billups, Carter, Artest, Scola, Yao Ming.

Adelman is also a veteran, pre-judged the arrangement of Gentry.

This lineup is point-to-point on both sides and will look very good.

Both sides made their debut.

Oden took a long sigh before he went on the court, and he faced Yao Ming in the first game. Even if he was mentally prepared, the pressure was still great.

Lin Ying patted him on the shoulder when she saw it, and gave him a look that believed in herself.

In the middle circle, Oden and Yao Ming jumped the ball!

"beep!"

With a whistle, Oden took the lead to jump and dial the ball back to the Suns halftime. Lin Ying got the ball and the away team attacked first!

With Nash holding the ball at the top of the arc, Lin Ying took advantage of Oden's pick and roll to catch the ball and fly Yao Ming, and then went straight to the basket to throw the ball and score!

The play style of the small forward, the technique of the power forward!

This ball is a portrayal of Lin Ying's current play.

The Suns came out on top!

In the Rockets' offense, Yao Ming received the ball in the high post and Princeton played in the high post.

After losing weight, Yao Ming became the best organizer in the Princeton system.

And with Billups, the Rockets have an on-court coach. It's clear how to call you.

Playing high-position tactics, pulling Oden out, and directly dissolving Gentry's arrangement with a soft and strong strategy.

Carter's cut, Yao Ming hit the earth beautifully, and Carter was about to fly into the air after catching the ball.

However, as soon as he got up, a figure quickly came to defend him.

Lin Ying!

The match between ncaa and Georgetown is still vivid, but he is very familiar with Princeton's various styles of play!

Carter was forced to stop the ball, only to find that the passing route was choked to death when he wanted to pass the ball.

Of course Gentry knew Princeton's high-ranking tactics and arranged for Oden to start, so how could there be no other response!

Princeton's advantage is that people move the ball, but in the end, the high probability is to cut into the basket and score.

In this case, make full use of Lin Ying's defense ability, and the defense can be half of the success!

Carter finally chose to hit Lin Ying with his back and turned and leaned back.

The four major shooting guards have their own strengths, but they all have the skills they should have.

But at this position, Carter obviously thought too much about playing Lin Ying like this.

After the ball was shot, Lin Ying's fingers were photographed, and Lin Ying took off the defensive rebound directly for the second time!

The Suns' fast break progressed rapidly, Nash received Lin Ying's long pass and flew with long hair to score a fast break.

4 to 0!

The Suns rebelled against the guests, and gave the Rockets a start!

The Rockets advanced to the frontcourt, and under Billups's command, the Rockets began to play more complicated.

Carter and Scola's "split" split tactics, Carter received a pass from Yao Ming and shot a mid-range jumper.

"when!"

The tactics of this ball are very beautiful, but I don't know if it was because of the fact that it was covered by Lin Ying in front, Carter's shot did not make it!

Stoudemire returned to the basket and took off the defensive rebound!

Yao Ming needs to be on the perimeter when Princeton is playing high, and the Rockets' ability to compete for rebounds will obviously become weaker.

Fortunately, this time they retired quickly ~www.NovelMTL.com~ and did not allow Nash to form a direct scoring opportunity.

However, just when the fans thought the Rockets would defend the Suns' fast break this time, Lin Ying went to the front three-point line and went straight in.

Nash's hit was directly given.

At this time, Yao Ming hadn't been seated. The Rockets had only Scola at the basket. Lin Ying jumped directly into the air in the three-second zone.

He has been in a state of excitement since the opening.

Scola was also very hard, and straightened his hands to face Lin Ying.

"Boom!"

But Lin Ying's speed was faster than he thought, and he dunked more firmly. The ball smashed the ball into the basket directly through him!

There was a stir at the scene.

6 to 0!

This is no longer a distraction, it completely suppresses the Rockets!

And the Rockets advanced to the frontcourt, and Billups' outside three-pointer was covered by Allen flying up and slapped it!

The Suns played fast break again, this time Allen received a pass from Nash and flew into the basket to score!

8 to 0!

Successful defense time after time, wave after wave of fast break!

After entering the playoffs, the Suns seemed to be in their best form all of a sudden, showing the state they had when they won the championship last year!

In the stands, Houston's fans are already restless.

The commentator, Barkley suddenly remembered something after seeing this scene.

Although that experience was the biggest pain in his heart.

But another year of sixth in the Western Conference, and another defending champion, still made him involuntarily utter Tomjanovich's famous saying in the commentary.

"Don't underestimate a champion."

Last year, the Suns won the championship with a record of sixth in the Western Conference, and this year they are sixth in the Western Conference as the defending champion.

To paraphrase Lin Ying’s previous famous scene:

Do it again, why not!
