Chapter 329 Dust Settle

The battlefield of the playoffs has always been full of sparks and continuous fights, but it is rare to see such a tragic one like this season. After entering the 21st century, there may be such a scene as the confrontation between the Spurs and the Pistons.

But this season's fierce battle has completely fallen into that kind of stalemate. Whoever wants to enter the next round has to do his best to retreat. If he doesn't see the red with a bayonet, he probably won one more game.

And in this era of chaos without a dynasty team, if you dare to relax, then wait to be eliminated.

In order to compete for a ring for themselves and add some wonderful embellishments to their honor book, most people still chose to work hard, and the battle of wits and courage between the coaches also made the game extremely tragic.

In the history of the NBA, there has never been a lack of dark horses, whether in the regular season or the playoffs. The birth of dark horses and dynasties will always be a highlight of NBA games.

But if a playoff catches up with a lot of dark horses, this is also a spectacular scene. For example, this is the case this season. The Warriors can overturn the Mavericks. I'm afraid no one can be sure before the game starts.

Even old Nelson himself admits that he only stimulates the potential of the Golden State gang as much as possible, but whether he can cross the first round really needs to rely on luck to favor these fierce Golden State people.

In fact, it is not easy for such a pure dark horse to emerge in the playoffs every season, but this year's fight is obviously more fierce than the Golden State gang.

The Golden State Warriors relied on senior Nelson, a former undercover agent, to deal with the Mavericks' unlucky men, but after meeting the Jazz in the second round, their momentum had weakened.

And the final score also proves this. The total score of 1:4 is a true portrayal of the victory between Old Sloan and Old Nelson. Sloan, who has always emphasized practicality, defeated the old madman this time.

However, the difference between the points in the five games is not large. Old Nelson's Golden State Bandits have always used their strong impact to fight to the end with the Jazz. These guys have really fully shown their dark horse nature.

The gap between the two sides in tactical execution is not big, but in terms of details, old Nelson's players are more used to using the deadly three-pointer and holding the ball as a weapon in the wild attack.

However, the classic blocking and dismantachment cooperation of the Jazz team, coupled with the toughness of Sloan's on-the-spot command, suddenly played a few classic cooperations when the two sides were in a stalemate, and the score was pulled away in an instant.

In five games, the average loss of only six points per game, such data makes old Nelson look unhappy, but the final result is doomed to be unchangeable, and the Golden State gang can only have no choice but to stop in the second round.

But old Nelson's wild counterattack can still set off a debate about shelling tactics in the NBA. Whether to please the audience first or achieve results is more important. Anyway, this kind of discussion will always last for a long time.

However, in the history of the NBA, it will definitely leave a mark belonging to the Golden State Warriors. In this year's playoffs, they used a fierce offensive wave to defeat the top position in the league's regular season.

The Mavericks estimate that the Mavericks will be nailed to the pillar of shame in the next few years. Even if Kuban doesn't seem to care in front of the media, Johnson's dismissal has shown that this guy doesn't care about the ending of being eliminated by the Black Eight. He can be the first in the regular season. The Jinzhou gangs are enough to be proud of themselves.

The Golden State Warriors stopped in the second round, and another bombarding team in the West failed to escape the harsher strangulation battle. Popovich's old guy will not make mistakes easily, so his team is also in the same line.

The Spurs lost the fewest points in the regular season, but when they met the Phoenix Suns, they failed to completely curb the opponent's attack. In the six peak games, the Suns scored more than 100 points in five games.

There are few teams that can force the Spurs to this point with offensive firepower. The Phoenix Suns have obviously done what they should do, especially their offensive firepower network, which basically covers the whole field.

But D'Anthony's team, even if it can play its offensive to the extreme, still failed to stop the Spurs. Nash, the two-time MVP winner with a total score of 4:2, continues to hover outside the door of the finals.

The Suns attack is crazy, but the Spurs' counterattack can also burst into super energy at the critical moment.

Everyone knows that the Spurs' defense is strong, but what else can you say when Ginobili twists his body and throws himself into the crowd again and again, and then shoots from various strange angles?

What's more, there is a French sports car like Tony Parker. Although he is not as sophisticated as Nash, in terms of scoring efficiency, the French breakthrough and three-pointer are not inferior to the former MVP.

What's more important is that the Frenchman is young enough. The flexible movement ability under his feet often causes a lot of unexpected lethality in the last quarter.

Even Nash admitted after the game that the opponent can keep the whole game at the same impact speed, but he has to take care of more. He is indeed not as focused as Parker in scoring.

The only highlight may be the performance of Stadmeier. His offensive efficiency has always been the first in the team, and in the battle with Duncan, this wild guy has always had an advantage.

This is also one of the main reasons why many Suns fans think that their team can beat their opponents, but the most obvious point is the gap in experience, especially the confrontation between those old fried dough sticks.

Duncan did not deliberately go to fight against Stadmeier. Instead, this big guy pays more attention to the extremely aggressive attack mode, medium distance, response, only when the neutral gear runs out, will he attack under the basket.

Scoring, rebounding, these statistics are not as good as Stadmeier, but the winner is him.

When Rivers watched the confrontation between the Spurs and the Suns, he curled his mouth and said, "The Popovich obviously learned the lesson from the game with us, so he let Stadmeier to toss around alone."

Siberdeau agreed with this view, because Popovich's trap was so obvious that he stared at everyone else, so he relaxed Stadmeier alone, and then Duncan didn't keep an eye on this guy.

This is obviously the way Popovich thought of after the fight with the Celtics. Put one, and then cut off all the delivery routes, so that Stadmeier kept holding the ball in the basket to pick Duncan.

It can let him score and grab the rebound, but cut off the pass, prevent him from covering for others, and completely isolate this guy. It seems that this method did disrupt the Suns' attack in the end.

A point is prominent, and the silence of the teammates around him is the lesson Popovich learned from Chen Feng.

But you really have to say that such an old guy is really unique and accurate. With his old and slippery animal, the Suns were cut by them like this.

The team with the strongest offensive firepower was so killed by the Spurs, and at the critical moment of the fifth game, there will always be an old guy who will stand up to end the game, and Robert Horry's evil will take action again.

It's just that this time it's not to score the game, but to give Nash a very technical foul, and let Stadmeier, who was still rest on the bench, unconsciously step into the field.

As a result, Nash was dizzy and rested for a minute. The Spurs took the opportunity to expand the score. When Nash came back, he was exhausted, and Stadmeier was banned by the league in the last game!

No wonder when Chen Feng saw this scene, he scolded angrily, "Fuck, those grandchildren of the Spurs are too gloomy!" This pit is dug. How can you jump to death? That fool of Stadmeyer is really honest!"

An old goblin like Horry is now not only Chen Feng's hatred, but also a thorn in the side of Suns fans, but the Spurs are rich in these creatures. If you meet them, you have to be very careful.

"This is the role of experience. They can know when it is the most cost-effective to foul, so you should also learn a little. When it's time to be cruel, it should be like this, without mercy and regardless of the consequences."

Takanian instigated Chen Feng's words beside him, which made the Celtics' beast hear a cold sweat on his head. Damn it, this boy who doesn't play yin is so cruel and plays so gloomy! Do you still make people live!

Even Jefferson, such a silent and honest man, unconsciously twitched his muscles on his face, not to mention Weber, who could only smile bitterly. Fortunately, thanks to this animal, he was his own.

Weber even said in private that if I can't team up with Chen Feng, I just want to retire quickly.

Are you kidding? If you fight against such an animal under the basket, it will definitely be a tragic end of death and injury.

After the Spurs killed the Suns, more people have set their eyes on these silent guys.

"Maybe this is the starting point for Popovich to hit the championship again." After eliminating the Suns led by Nash, some people predicted the ambition of the Spurs.

Popovich is still so cautious, and his habit of answering questions has not changed. He will not tell the media what the goal of the Spurs is and whether he wants to win the championship.

"We will continue to move forward as much as possible." Absolute official language, but you can't ignore this old strong team that is always silent and then wins one after another.

Especially after these guys broke through two levels in a row in the playoffs in the play at the critical moment, the more stable the Spurs. Now the odds of winning the championship are believed to have far exceeded those of other competitors.

However, compared with the fight in the West, the East is a real bloody battle. The confrontation between the Bulls and the Cavaliers has been dragged until the seventh game. The Cavaliers, who are at home, finally let down the running Bulls.

If the little emperor hadn't scored 37 points at the critical moment, it was estimated that the Cavaliers, the Eastern second, would have to be cut off. The Bulls' fierceness made Cleveland fans panic.

Seven fights can only kill the Bulls. It is estimated that not many people will swear that this is the era of the little emperor James, and the Cavaliers' stress resistance does not seem to be reliable.

The fight with the Bulls is to expose the Cavaliers' weaknesses. As long as there is a little problem with the little emperor's front sight, the Clevelanders can count on, and the only thing left is the opponent's collective offense 2.

If the Bulls can play normally, the Cavaliers will have no chance of winning. Unless the little emperor starts his personal performance again, Cleveland fans will only pray to God.

"One team is destined not to win everyone." Rivers is a little disgusted with such a crazy consumer emperor of the Cavaliers, and Mike Brown's on-the-spot command ability is also a little unflattering.

At least in the two seasons of Boston's lowest, Pierce, as the team's only big name, Rivers did not die. He still emphasized the overall operation and cooperation, rather than relying on one person to do everything. After all, the little emperor is also a person, not almighty god, and his state is also in a good state. Fu.

But Mike Brown seems to hope that his number one general can continue that brave state, sweep away those blocking opponents, and then take the team to move forward, and by the way, he can also reach the finals.

I don't know if this fat man with glasses thinks it's really beautiful, or if it's because this guy really thinks that James, like Master Joe, can really lead the team to the championship on his own.

Anyway, the Cavaliers' tactics are on the surface, Jackie James and James. It is estimated that the subsequent games will have to be such a routine. As for whether the hearts of Cleveland fans can withstand this kind of ups and downs and full of unknown variables, they have to ask them how they feel. It is.

Anyway, no matter what others think, the Cavaliers' tactics are the star card, and Mike Brown will not change it.

And it can't be changed. What role can Larry Hughes or Big Z play? This is really a dream. One is the old injury number, and the other is that the eldest is not the second boss who is ready to leave.

There is no possibility that the Cavaliers' tactical play will change in a short period. Unless they can still make a big deal during the summer transfer period, James will have to continue his hard 1V5 single challenge.

However, the fight between the knight and the bull, although it is the seventh game, there is not much suspense in the middle.

At least in the back and forth fight, the contrast is very clear. James has a feel, so he can kill the Bulls. If this guy's hands are cold, then the game will be completely inclined to the opponent from the beginning.

In contrast, another duel in the East is completely a bloody hand-to-hand fight, even more eye-catching than the previous three games. The Pistons are also favored by ratings for the first time in history.

The 2:1 lead between the Celtics and the Pistons, just like the Bulls and the Cavaliers, fought until the seventh game. In the next four games, almost every time they were deadlocked until the last moment.

Especially in the sixth game, the Celtics, who were killed at home, have fallen behind by 3:2, but against the Pistons at home, the animals relied on a hit rate of less than 40% and staged a reversal at the last moment.

The two sides fought until the end of the third overtime, 118:116, the final kill at the last moment, so that the Pistons failed to complete the idea of killing the Celtics in the sixth game.

Both teams have the toughest defensive strength, with a hit rate of less than 40%, but they can be deadlocked until the third overtime. You can imagine how harsh the game is.

When the starting lineup of the two sides had two minutes left in the third overtime, the whole army was destroyed, but after that, no one could continue to score. Chen Feng finally scored against Rashid's hard board, which became the key to deciding the victory or defeat. However, he also stepped on Rashid's foot when he landed because of this attack. Noodles.

The price of a standard final kill for a sprained ankle. If Rivers can make all this happen again, then he will definitely choose to continue to fight, instead of letting the wild boy end the battle like this.

In fact, not only was Chen Feng unable to play in the last game, but also because Weber fought too hard, he also missed the seventh game because of the recurrence of knee injury, but the Pistons were also very sad.

Rashid was seriously injured by Chen Feng's foot, and then Hamilton pulled his back muscles in the last extra time layup. Davis was bruised by the guy's ribs because he grabbed the rebound with Chen Feng.

The seventh game of both sides was such a broken start, but everyone fought to the last second, but the big heart of Billups, even in the face of Rondo, can still find a chance to kill.

A heart-piercing three-pointer saved the face of the East boss of the Pistons, but he narrowly won with only three points, and then paid so much, which made Sanders and the Pistons fans laugh.

After stepping over the Celtics' deadly stumbling block, they only entered the Eastern Conference finals, but now the Pistons fans and the Detroit media no longer expect Sanders to create any miracle.

It is a lucky victory for the current Pistons to break into the Eastern Conference finals, and those fierce Celtic animals, left to Detroit, are boundless fear.

Although these guys lost, Chen Feng, who still had a swollen ankle, stood on the sidelines to watch the whole game. When this guy left Auburn Hills Palace Stadium, he said, "See you next season."

"I won't say I'llbeback, but the next time I meet, the winner will definitely not be them." This is not what Chen Feng said to the reporter in Detroit, but a private speech to Xie Miaomiao.

They lost to the boss of the East, but they won the game after seven hard games. This group of wild people in Boston obviously brought more impact to the playoffs than their final results.

Murphy wrote a sentence in the column, "I'm not facing a group of losers at this moment, but a group of guys who can't wait to see the curtain of next season. I'm really looking forward to them coming back..."

Kill back? Yes, those guys will definitely come back again. At that time, no matter who blocks the way, the result will be the same. The big hands that make the whole city of Detroit tremble will only become stronger and stronger.

The dust of the seven wars has been settled, but for some people, this is just the beginning of the journey...
