Chapter 390 Western Conference Finals Opponent
In addition to the Sonics, earlier on the same day, the Nets had already advanced to the East and West Finals.
Facing the Celtics, they completed a sweep.
Even in the last game, the Celtics still failed to stand up.
The performance of the two was quite satisfactory, but they failed to lead the team to turn the tide.
The Sonics are training step by step, while waiting for their opponents.
It's just that, before that, the NBA continued to announce the awards.
The best team and best defensive team for the regular season of this season have also been announced in the past few days.
For these two awards, some media have already made speculations, and they are almost inseparable.
After all, data is very important for the two awards of the best team and the best defensive team.
For example, the scoring champion, such as the MVP, is basically determined to enter the best team.
Wang Hao is also very concerned about these two awards, after all, this is a major issue related to skill points!
Facts have proved that he didn't pay attention in vain, and the selection of the two best teams allowed him to gain 10 skill points.
The first team of the best team, and there is no surprise.
Center O'Neal, McGrady and Duncan on the front line, Wang Hao and Kobe Bryant on the front line.
In the original time and space, it should be Garnett who entered the first team.
It's just that, facing McGrady, the scoring leader, and averaging 32.1 points per game, Garnett took a step back.
If it weren't for McGrady's victory in scoring this year, what the hell, the West would have to round up the first team of the best team.
The best second team, the center turned out to be Ben Wallace.
To be honest, this is a bit surprising. In the eyes of many people, the best lineup should be the offensive lineup.
But Ben Wallace averaged 6.9 points per game, you let him enter the best team?Is this reasonable?
On the front line are Garnett and Nowitzki. As for the back line, there are two stars from the East.
Iverson of the Numbers and Jason Kidd of the Nets.
The third team of the best team, the center is O'Neal from the Indiana Pacers.
Since leaving the Trail Blazers, under the guidance of Larry Bird, Jermaine O'Neal has been completely played.
The front line is the Kings' Chris Webber and the Celtics' Paul Pierce, and the back line is the Mavericks' Steve Nash and the Suns' Steve Marbury.
Then there's the All-Defensive First Team.
Center Ben Wallace, as the best defensive player of the season, deserves his selection.
The remaining four are Duncan, Garnett, Wang Hao, and Christie from the Kings.
This season, Christie's performance on the defensive end has been completely released.
Especially in the Kings lineup, he was given a lot of defensive performance.
In the original time and space, Kobe this season is actually a double first team, but unfortunately, he has been given up now.
Wang Hao's defense is also good, and he is still the MVP, which naturally has a very big bonus.
The best defensive second team, the OK combination of O'Neal and Kobe, and then Kidd's still solid defensive performance.
In fact, Kidd's defense can occupy a position of the best defensive first team.
After all, his biggest blessing to the Nets is actually the team's defense.
Although this is the reason for the tactical system, Kidd's defensive ability is also crucial.
It's a pity that there are only five spots in the first team of the best defense, and someone has to lose.
As for why Kidd, maybe he is suitable!
Finally, on the front line are two guys who are destined to scare everyone else, Bruce Bowen and Ron Artest.
The announcement of the NBA's regular season awards is over. Next, it will be a moment that belongs entirely to the playoffs.
Especially next, the two series will come to the most critical game, the battle of Tianwangshan in the fifth game.
In Tianwangshan, the Spurs won another game.
There aren't a ton of free throws, or halved the number of free throws, to be exact.
The Lakers eventually lost the game.
Bryant and O'Neal's performance is not bad, but unfortunately, the overall performance of the Spurs is better.
To put it bluntly, the tactics of the two teams are extreme.
On the Lakers side, it's basically O'Neal and Kobe's singles, and the role players have extremely limited room to play.
The Spurs, on the other hand, performed well.
Although they only have one Duncan, the performance of others can also make up for a very big deficiency.
After the game, O'Neal complained again.
Complain that he only has 14 shots, which is not even half of Kobe's shots.
Of course, this cannot simply blame Kobe.
Facing the Spurs' twin towers, O'Neal has to face double teams all the time, and it is also difficult to connect the ball.
In the last 2 minutes, Kobe and O'Neal scored 8 points together, and once had a chance to complete the overtake.
It's a pity that the hole dug before is too big, and it can only fall short.
The same is true in the east. In the battle of Tianwangshan, the Pistons at home were even better.
In this game, the Pistons really showed what is called the strongest defense in the league.
Iverson, who had been omnipotent before, and Iverson who had made them helpless, was finally resolved today.
With 25 of 5 shots and a 20% hit rate, the digital team was once in a dilemma of not being able to score.
As the core of the team's offense, Iverson failed to save the digital team in the end.
Of course, the responsibility is not all on Iverson.
For example, Iverson, who kept hitting the basket in this game and was knocked to the ground time and time again.
He only got 4 free throws in the whole game, which more or less can explain some problems.
The defeat of the crucial battle of Tianwang Mountain can actually explain a lot of problems.
In the end, neither the Lakers nor the digital team could hold on in the end.
The former opponents in the finals are now being sent away together, maybe they can make an appointment to go fishing together.
Back home, Iverson quickly recovered his form.
It's a pity that Billups, who has a big heart, is also true, and he played against Iverson directly.
Iverson can't do it alone, but on the Pistons side, Billups is surrounded by helpers.
Iverson tried his best, but still failed.
On the other hand, the Lakers were defeated by the Spurs and lost 20 points.
You know, this is the Staples Center, the Lakers' home court, and this battle can be described as embarrassing.
The combination of Duncan and Tony Parker is beginning to show its power.
The two scored 64 points, 17 rebounds and 10 assists together, completely suppressing the OK combination.
With the end of this game, the East and West finals are out.
The top two teams in the East and West will eventually meet in the East and West finals.
This shows that the record in the regular season is still somewhat convincing.
"Sure enough, it's the Spurs!"
In fact, when the game reached the fourth quarter, everyone in the Sonics knew the result.
In the fourth quarter, the Lakers were out of shape, but the Spurs seemed to be playing a home game.
With one increase and one decrease, the point difference was quickly opened.
More importantly, at that time, the morale of the Lakers was also broken a little bit.
"Very well, Spurs, this is indeed a very good opponent."
Seeing the end of the game, Paul Westphal, as the head coach, was the first to speak up.
"At least we don't need to be confused about how to limit Shaq.
To be honest, meeting Shaq for several years in a row really makes people feel a little broken.
From this perspective, it may be a good thing for us! "
It's not to deliberately belittle the Spurs. In fact, the strength of the Spurs is in everyone's eyes.
If there is a real deficiency, it is that Duncan is alone.
Once Duncan fails to take on the heavy responsibility of the Spurs on both offense and defense, the Spurs are simply powerless to resist.
During the regular season, there may be someone on the Spurs who can stand up and help Duncan hold up the scene.
But in the playoffs, it's not that simple.
The G and D in GDP still seem too young to share the pressure for Duncan.
Although Parker played very well today, in fact, it was just a smooth game, no matter how he played.
If you want to be an MVP, you have to stand up at the critical moment.
Therefore, as long as you target Duncan well and make Duncan play abnormally, the Supersonics have a great chance.
But the question is, expect this idiot to perform abnormally?
To be honest, such a chance is not great.
May 5, Seattle, Key Arena.
Facing this crucial game, even Wang Hao couldn't sit still at home.
He simply came to the arena early in the morning. At this time, there was still an empty scene outside the key arena.
As for the fans, they will not come to the arena until the afternoon.
To do this is naturally to warm up.
Warming up is a matter of opinion, and some athletes have extremely strict warm-up requirements.
Before each game, there must be a warm-up time of one to two hours.
Especially some older players, such as Gary Payton, and future Nash and others.
A good warm-up can completely move the body and avoid injuries to a large extent.
Most players will guarantee half an hour of warm-up time before the game.
Of course, there are also those who are not prepared to warm up at all, such as Iverson, who often arrives at the arena before the game.
Many media are propagating that Iverson does not train, on the one hand, it is to create a super genius personality for him.
On the other hand, it is also to accuse him of being lax and unruly.
In fact, this is pure media hype.
Even O'Neal needs to participate in team training on time, let alone Iverson.
Iverson himself admitted that he did miss training, but he didn't never train.
In fact, he is more likely to not participate in the warm-up before the game.
This is also the reason for Iverson's constant injuries, especially when he was a little older, his state declined sharply.
Strictly speaking, Iverson's career peak only lasted until the 07-08 season.
At that time, he was only 33 years old.
Logically speaking, at the age of 33, it should be the peak of a professional player's career.
During this period, due to the reduction of physical function, athletic talent will definitely decline rapidly.
However, the experience will be richer.
At this age, the performance may decrease a little bit, but it will never be sluggish.
Including Iverson, including McGrady, are actually the cause of injuries.
Wang Hao has seen too many such situations, even though he is still young, his attitude towards warming up is very rigorous.
Injury immunity, that is also a problem of probability.
However, although there are no fans around the arena, there are not a few reporters on the scene.
"Wang, what do you think of the next game?"
"Popovich said he's found a way to limit you, are you worried about that?"
"Wang, after the MVP competition in the regular season, you will meet Tim again, are you confident?"
……
Wang Hao hadn't finished yet, when a group of reporters recognized his car and immediately surrounded him.
Even though it was not the first time he had seen such a scene, he still felt a little helpless.
These reporters are really desperate for the news.
After all, his car hadn't stopped yet, it was completely forced to stop by these reporters.
If the security guards hadn't arrived in time, Wang Hao doubted that he wouldn't even be able to get out of the car.
"Okay, okay, I still have time to warm up, so don't waste your time.
I will answer everyone's questions, but there can only be two questions, and we will ask more questions when we have the opportunity. "
In this case, if he doesn't answer a few questions from the reporter, these guys probably won't let him go.
Although Wang Hao pointed to a reporter, he said.
"George, isn't it? I think that's the name. It's up to you to ask the first question."
Wang Hao still has an impression of some names that he often deals with, and he tries to remember their names as much as possible.
Unless it is a team reporter, otherwise, some small reporters, but for the players, I really can't remember.
Hearing Wang Hao call out his name, George felt a little excited. After all, he was still a reporter for a small media.
Don't underestimate this little bit of gratitude, sometimes it works well.
For example, before, at the critical moment of the regular season MVP selection, many media were fanning the flames.
To put it bluntly, it was to build momentum for Duncan to win the MVP, and many of them slandered Wang Hao.
At that time, many media also supported Wang Hao.
Among other things, he has more than a dozen endorsements on his back, and each endorsement is at least a million.
Naturally, it is impossible for these partners to see their spokespersons being blackmailed.
During this process, many small media reporters stood up to speak for Wang Hao.
Especially some media in Washington State, these are the contacts Wang Hao has accumulated in his daily life.
"Wang, Greg said, he found a way to restrict you, what do you think of this?"
"I'm looking forward to it, it's going to be a very challenging series.
Whether it is Greg or the Spurs, this is a new test for us.
However, I always believe that the final victory must belong to us. "
After Wang Hao finished answering, he pointed to a reporter and said, "The second question."
"Wang, in the last round of the series, Tim performed very well. Do you have any good ideas?"
"Yeah, Tim was great, we watched the Spurs and the Lakers and he dominated the game.
As for the special method?No, and there is no need, for the Sonics, any opponent is the same. "
