Chapter 387 It's hard to say, after all, O'Neal was beaten by Miller
The three teams in the Western Conference that have advanced to the second round are the Suns, Spurs and Warriors.
In the end, the Mavericks and Kings were left to fight until Game 7.
It’s really incredible that the Kings can reach the tiebreaker with the Mavericks. Of course, the referee’s contribution is indispensable. This is very similar to the game between the Mavericks and the Rockets in this year’s playoffs. The two teams also played seven games.
.
Although the Rockets' regular season results are not as good as the Mavericks, fans are very confident in the Rockets' ability to defeat the top. The Rockets, with two superstars in Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady, can defeat the Mavericks led by Nowitzki very easily.
The progress after the start of the series seemed to confirm this. The Rockets turned away and defeated the Mavericks in two consecutive home games with scores of 98:86 and 113:111, and returned to Toyota Center with a 2:0 advantage.
But the result was that the Rockets lost the series 4-3.
Among them, the referee deserves the most credit.
This series between the Kings and the Mavericks is exactly the opposite of the Rockets and the Mavericks in the previous life. The weak Kings are no match for the Mavericks. They were overwhelmed by the Mavericks in the first two games and the score was 2-0.
Just when everyone thought the Kings were finished, Peja suddenly broke out, and with help from the referee, the game was dragged to a tiebreaker.
The two teams became the most eye-catching game in the Western Conference. After all, other games in the Western Conference ended early. They were the only ones who kept fighting and fighting, and they were inseparable.
Entering the decisive tie-break, everyone thought it would be a game where Mars collided with the Earth. However, to everyone's surprise, the Kings unexpectedly lost to the Mavericks 76:116, with a score difference of 40 points.
The referee stopped helping, allowing everyone to see clearly who was swimming naked.
The Eastern Conference is not as sophisticated as the Western Conference. The Heat swept the Nets 4-0, leaving no face at all. The Nets still have an old problem. This problem has been reported by other teams since it was caught by Lu Yu during his time with the Bulls.
The situation has become more and more serious, and this season it has dropped to eighth place in the Eastern Conference.
It is estimated that if we don’t make adjustments next season, we may not even make it to the playoffs.
The Bulls defeated the Wizards 4-2. Although Wang Zhizhi had his ups and downs, his overall performance was outstanding. The Wizards couldn't take care of themselves. The foundation left by Lu Yu was enough for the Bulls to thrive in the Eastern Conference for a few years.
The Pistons defeated the 76ers 4-1.
If others encounter the 76ers, they may not know how to fight, and if others encounter Iverson, they may not know how to defend them, but Larry Brown knows, he led Iverson for seven full years.
They were together for seven years, but they couldn't escape the seven-year itch.
When they met again, they became enemies.
Brown led the Pistons and showed no mercy against the 76ers. The Pistons, who are famous for their defense, did not average more than 90 points per game in the regular season. In this series, only one game was below 90 points, and there are actually two more games.
The game scored more than 100 points, and he really beat the 76ers to death.
Iverson, who averaged 30 points per game in the regular season, was stunned in this series, averaging only 19.8 points per game.
Only after we are separated can we realize how good each other is.
Only after we were separated did I realize that I didn’t cherish you at the beginning.
Do you regret it?
I, Allen Iverson, was born with a stubborn streak and I have never regretted it!
Another series in the Eastern Conference, the Pacers and Celtics, also played seven games. Anyway, Stern does not allow a window period in the NBA playoffs. There must be teams in both the Eastern and Western Conferences that play seven games, otherwise it will be broadcast
What a waste.
To be honest, this series is nothing to watch.
We had to attack but not attack, we had to defend but we didn't defend. I don't know why we got to the seventh game.
In the end, the Pacers defeated the Celtics 4-3 and advanced to the second round.
Before the second round started, a reporter asked Lu Yu to predict which teams would advance in the second round. Lu Yu did not tell the answer because he didn’t know who from the other teams would advance, but he knew
The Suns will definitely advance.
But saying such confident words at this time will make the Mavericks look very bad.
The Mavericks did not expect that the results of last summer's selection would begin to be verified this summer.
Last summer, they chose to keep Nowitzki to strengthen the team instead of trading Nowitzki for Lu Yu. Who knew that in the second round of the playoffs this summer, the Mavericks would meet the Suns.
After taking a day off, Lu Yu went back to see his daughter and several wives, and then started training non-stop to prepare for the second round of competition.
But while walking with Anne, she was photographed by the media, and fans across the United States suddenly went crazy, because the Anne who was photographed was obviously pregnant.
Are Lu Yu and Annie dating?
And Anne is still pregnant?
"I hope this scandal is true. The two of them are so perfect for each other. They are a perfect couple."
When Lu Yu went to training in the morning, his teammates teased him about this incident and wanted to know if he really got Anne Hathaway pregnant.
Marion is still very depressed as to why no female star likes him. He also wants to find a female star as his girlfriend.
Lu Yu comforted her, saying that those female celebrities have no vision and they don’t know the strengths of hackers. To be honest, Marion is a bit ugly, but it’s not like no woman likes him.
After all, there are always women who know the difference between warmth and coldness, and know the right and wrong, and will fall in love with this Marion one.
In order to ensure the condition of the players during the Suns' training, they played six games. Logically speaking, it doesn't matter. The condition should be maintained very well. But who would have thought that their opponent, the Mavericks, was more ruthless than them. They played seven games. The league was afraid that
They were not physically strong enough, so after playing seven games, they were allowed to rest for two days before playing the second round.
In this way, the sun rested for five days.
The key is that during these five days, we still don't know whether the Mavericks or the Kings will win. We can't even make targeted tactical arrangements. We can only do some training to maintain the state.
But don’t think that the league has stopped since there are no games in the past two days.
Didn't the Heat become the only team in the league to sweep their opponents in the playoffs?
O'Neal couldn't sit still. He shouted to the media: "I am the number one center in the league. I am Shaquille O'Neal. The Lakers made a wrong decision by trading me away. Did you see that? That guy Bryant
, led the team and couldn't even make the playoffs, but I brought the Heat to the first place in the Eastern Conference. Without me, the Lakers would be nothing, and Kobe would be nothing."
When a reporter interviewed Lu Yu in Phoenix, he asked if O'Neal's words were correct.
Lu Yu smiled: "He is the number one center in the league. I don't want to argue with him. What's there to argue with? Fans are not fools. As for the matter between him and Kobe, what does it have to do with me? He said Kobe
It's not a fart. Of course, Kobe is not a fart in the first place. If O'Neal wants to be, then he is a fart."
Kobe was very unhappy and confronted O'Neal tit for tat: "Does he really think he leads the Heat? He only averages 20 points per game. Come on, if it weren't for Dwyane, he might really be nothing."
"Shaq would just sit in the penalty area in every game, doing nothing and letting his teammates help him defend. He only had eyes for the basket and was not active in guarding pick-and-rolls. His game with Lu Yu was blown away by Lu Yu, otherwise
How come we don’t have a championship, he’s an idiot.”
The two of them started tearing apart from each other.
A reporter asked Kobe who he expected to win the championship?
Kobe said: "Of course it's the Suns. How can O'Neal beat Lu Yu when he is playing center? He will definitely be beaten by Lu Yu. Don't worry, the finals will definitely be swept 4-0, it will be!"
After saying this, Kobe came to Lu Yu's house.
"Please, Lu, we must sweep the Heat in the finals. I don't want to see O'Neal so arrogant."
"Kobe, it's not like you don't know that the league will not allow the finals to be played in only four games."
This is a real problem. The league will not allow the finals to be played in only four games.
This is related to various income issues from tickets and ratings.
There have only been a few finals sweeps in NBA history.
The first time was the 1959 NBA Finals.
The Boston Celtics swept the Minneapolis Lakers 4-0.
This finals was really too long ago. The Lakers were not in Los Angeles at that time, and there was no finals MVP in the finals at that time. It happened that after the Lakers lost this finals, the Lakers moved to Los Angeles, so
The Lakers have to be grateful for being swept this time.
The second time was the 1971 NBA Finals.
The Milwaukee Bucks swept the Washington Bullets 4-0.
The Washington Bullets are the predecessor of the current Wizards. The MVP of this finals is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, the ancient god known as "Sky Hook".
The third time was the 1975 NBA Finals.
The Golden State Warriors swept the Washington Bullets 4-0.
Yes, they are still the Bullets. What a miserable Washington Bullets. Maybe this is the reason why the team needs to change its name. In just 5 years, it is really embarrassing to be swept by the Finals twice; the Warriors are so shameful.
Barry on the side won the finals mvp.
The fourth time was the 1983 NBA Finals.
Philadelphia 76ers swept the Los Angeles Lakers 4-0.
For the Philadelphia 76ers, Moses Malone won the Finals MVP. Lu Yu was not familiar with Malone either. Lu Yu was more familiar with Karl Malone, known as "The Postman";
That's right, it's Ma Long who was beaten by Lu Yupang last season.
Don't be surprised if you see the Lakers get swept in the Finals again, because this will definitely not be the last time the Lakers get swept in the Finals.
Don't think that the Lakers' bearish appearance is far from being the most powerful team in NBA history. The Lakers' experience of being beaten in the finals is an important factor in the Lakers' ability to become the league's most powerful team.
There is a saying that failure is the mother of success. By the way, for the Lakers, being swept in the Finals is the road to becoming a wealthy team.
The fifth time, 1989 NBA Finals.
The Detroit Pistons swept the Los Angeles Lakers 4-0.
Yes, the Lakers are here again. In total, the Lakers have been swept in the finals three times; however, Lu Yu believes that the Lakers did not lose unfairly. After all, this Pistons team defeated the team led by the basketball god Jordan in the playoffs.
The Bulls then reached the finals.
The sixth time was also the last time before Lu Yu entered the alliance.
In the 1995 NBA Finals, the Houston Rockets swept the Orlando Magic 4-0.
This finals is so classic, because there is a duel between the dream Olajuwon and the great shark O'Neal; it is a pity that Olajuwon is at the peak of his power at this time, very mature and comprehensive, while O'Neal is still a newborn calf, the results are so disparate, it is really
It's sad.
Lu Yu also wants to sweep the Heat.
The prerequisite is that the Heat can advance to the Finals and the league must support the Suns. Otherwise, the league will use referees to force the Finals to only play four games.
Lu Yu remembered that the Heat did not enter the finals this year, so Kobe's suggestion did not hold water at all.
Kobe thought too much about O'Neal, thinking that O'Neal could dominate the Eastern Conference. In fact, it was not true. O'Neal was really old. Even in Lu Yu's previous life, the year the Heat won the championship, if Wade hadn't come down to earth.
, O'Neal couldn't win the championship even if he was exhausted.
But the advantage of their quarrel was that the news of Anne's pregnancy was covered up.
When Lu Yu was interviewed by the media, he even added fuel to the flames and made himself the focus of this controversy.
"Both Kobe and O'Neal are right, but O'Neal is obviously more resentful. He should not involve his dissatisfaction with Kobe on me. If you really want to compete with me for the championship, please bring the Heat to the finals.
Me too, otherwise, what's the use of talking so much?"
The reporter asked: "Do you think O'Neal can beat the Bulls in the second round?"
"It's hard to say, after all, O'Neal was beaten by Miller."
Lu Yu couldn't help but pick up any pot.
However, Lu Yu really can't tell the result, because the Bulls the Heat faced in the second round have undergone tremendous changes due to the butterfly effect. Who can know the final result.
The reporter asked again: "The Suns' opponent in the second round is the Mavericks. This summer, Mavericks owner Cuban had the opportunity to trade for you, but he chose to give up. What do you think about this?"
Lu Yu smiled: "If you asked me this question at the beginning of the season, I would definitely feel that I was underestimated, but now, I will only thank Boss Cuban for his kindness."
"So do you think the Suns can beat the Mavericks?"
"Of course, I have confidence in defeating the Mavericks. The Mavericks, like us, have always been a team with strong offense and weak defense. But one thing is different. In terms of offensive power, we are stronger than them. In terms of defensive strength, we are stronger than them.
, our defensive intensity is also better than theirs, although we are equally strong in offense and weak in defense, we are slightly better than them in every aspect, and this is our advantage.”
All fans are paying attention to the game between the Suns and the Mavericks.
No one is paying attention to the other game in the West, the game between the Golden State Warriors and the Spurs, and the game between the Heat and the Bulls in the East.
The popularity of Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi is still lower than that of Lu Yu.
Only Chinese fans are making constant predictions, but few people are optimistic that the Bulls and Warriors can defeat the powerful Heat and Spurs.
Lu Yu couldn't guess it either.
Because there are too many variables.
The Warriors have Arenas, the originator of blind play, and Popovich, a master tactician, can't predict the opponent's play style.
The Heat's O'Neal couldn't be guarded, but Wang Zhizhi was extremely accurate on the outside.
This is the biggest variable.
The game with the least variables seemed to be the game between the Suns and the Mavericks. However, the game with the least variables attracted more fans' attention.
These are all the results of alliance operations. This chapter has been completed!
