The assist leader is Chris Paul, the current number one point guard in the league. Although he has undergone surgery, he is still the top point guard in the league.
This guy, whose height and speed don't have much advantage against other opponents, is definitely the best number one position currently active.
This year's steal leader is Chen Feng. He averaged 2.8 steals per game, beating Chris Paul and other superstars to take the top spot.
This year's block leader is not Derrick Favors, but the Thunder's defensive madman Serge Ibaka.
In addition to the personal data coming out, the team records are also coming out. And as the final records of each team are released, the teams that can enter the playoffs will also come out.
In the East, the Miami Heat are ranked first with 64 wins and 18 losses. They are the biggest opponent in the eyes of everyone in the Spurs this season. Of course, the prerequisite is that the Spurs must fight their way out of the chaotic West.
Ranked second is the Indiana Pacers, with a record of 60 wins and 20 losses; as for other teams, there is really not much competitiveness.
On the Western side, the San Antonio Spurs are ranked first, and they also have the best record in the league! This team has also struggled this season, and has also had successes. In any case, when they are about to exert their strength in the later stages, no matter what
Whether it is a rookie or a veteran, they can lead the team to victory.
The second place is the Oklahoma City Thunder. Under the leadership of the Thunder's two young men, they have achieved a record of 61 wins and 21 losses; the third place is the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers' late record is very good, plus
The Los Angeles Clippers. It can be said that these teams are one of the strongest teams this season.
Just like that, the schedule for the first round of the playoffs came out.
In the Western Conference, the Spurs' opponent in the first round is the Houston Rockets, one of the top three Texas teams.
The first game of the playoffs is scheduled for 6 p.m. on April 16, when the Spurs face the Rockets at home.
…………
At Chen Feng's home in San Antonio, after a day of training, Chen Feng took a shower and lay on the bed!
Turning over, Chen Feng lay comfortably on the bed, looking up at the ceiling above his head.
"Tomorrow is the playoffs, it's so fast!"
Sighing, the past scenes played in Chen Feng's mind like a movie. Especially when he recalled the time when he wanted to join the NBA but had no way. Chen Feng couldn't help but feel a lot about his lonely look.
"If I hadn't gotten the King System by chance, I probably wouldn't know where I am or what I'm doing right now!" Chen Feng murmured to himself.
Indeed, without the help of the King System, Chen Feng would still be worried about his future.
"Hey. I don't want to think about it anymore. Go to bed early and recuperate. Prepare for tomorrow's playoffs."
Chen Feng smiled and shook his head, then turned off the light, closed his eyes, and went to sleep.
…………
"The playoffs are about to start, guys, are you ready?" **Vicci's tone was also full of excitement.
"Ready." All the Spurs players shouted.
**Vicci nodded excitedly, and then said to everyone: "Then walk out from here. A good start in the playoffs belongs to us."
Everyone in the Spurs team was in high spirits, and under the leadership of **Vicci, they walked out of the locker room.
At this moment, there is nothing else on the minds of the Spurs players but the upcoming game.
They are determined to win this game.
The first playoff game between the Spurs and Rockets will be broadcast live across the United States on TNT, and the commentators for this game will be Bill Walton and Steve Kerr.
Speaking of which, the Rockets had a strong record at the beginning of this season. At least they ended in victory when they faced most of the playoff teams in the regular season. But unfortunately, when they tried their best later, this
The team's record is not very good, the schedule is terrible, in addition, this team lacks the temperament of a super team, and the team's offensive method is too monotonous.
The packed att Center arena was filled with a festival-like atmosphere.
The entire att center was filled with a festive atmosphere, and the fans were rejoicing.
The Spurs' starting lineup appeared on the big screen, and their highlights from the game were also being played on the big screen.
Center Derrick Favors, power forward Tim Duncan, small forward Leonard, shooting guard Chen Feng, and point guard Parker.
Subsequently, the Rockets' starting lineup also came out, center Dwight Howard, power forward Jones, small forward Parsons, shooting guard Bearded Harden, and point guard Beverley.
Then, the starting players from both sides came to the court, and the referee on duty was checking the basketball.
The referee looked at Derrick Favors and Dwight Howard and asked them if they were ready for the jump ball.
When both of them answered in the affirmative, the much-anticipated playoffs were about to begin.
"Dip", as the referee blew his whistle, the orange basketball quickly rose into the air.
The two big men suddenly jumped up. The healthy Howard's explosive power was unimaginable. Dwight Howard jumped the big man Favors, helping the Rockets win the first offensive opportunity.
At the beginning of the game, the Rockets turned away and launched a fierce attack on the Spurs. Harden became the team's offensive force, and he was the last to initiate several consecutive attacks.
With a "swish" sound, Parsons passed the ball and assisted James Harden to hit a three-pointer from the left wing.
Taking advantage of Parker's missed shot, the Rockets launched another beautiful fast break, forming a three-on-one situation under the basket, and finally Jones scored a layup from the left baseline.
Taking advantage of the moment when the Spurs served, **Vic shouted from the sidelines: "Tony, control the rhythm to ensure the success rate of the attack."
Parker waved to him and took the ball from Chen Feng. In fact, there was no need for Vicky to direct from the sidelines. Parker himself knew that the two attacks just now were indeed a bit hasty, and the defense after the attack also seemed
I was a little slow and was chased from behind for five minutes.
And he also knew that he was no longer the team's first choice. Whether it was attacking or organizing the team, that little guy had grown up to be able to lead the team forward. Thinking of this, Parker passed the ball to Chen on the side.
wind.
The man responsible for defending Chen Feng is the bearded Harden. It is hard to imagine that McHale dared to make such a decision and let a defensive black hole face one of the best attackers in the league. However, I remembered what Harden said to reporters before the game.
If he threatened to destroy Chen Feng on both offense and defense, coach McHale would probably be very helpless.
However, Chen Feng did not force a breakthrough. Leonard's pick-and-roll allowed him to find another shortcut to break through.
He made a vertical cut along Leonard's right side and hit a mid-range shot from a 45-degree angle on the right wing.
"For such opportunities, Chen Feng will not miss them under normal circumstances. If the Spurs want to go further in the playoffs, that is, defend the title, then they must open up Chen Feng, or put Chen Feng on the Instead of having two core players on the bench, and when such an opportunity arises, Chen Feng should be more selfless." Director Zhang of a.v5 said with a sigh.
This season, the Rockets have not only improved offensively, but also significantly improved the quality of their defense.
In the next few rounds, neither side scored. Parker's baseline breakthrough layup was directly pushed onto the backboard from behind by Parsons, who was very defensive.
At a critical moment, James Harden, the Rockets' scoring leader this season, once again made a contribution. Under Chen Feng's personal defense, he hit a right-wing fadeaway jumper. I have to say that this guy's stepback jumper is really good. It is lethal.
**Vic saw that the Rockets' offense was so fierce, but the Spurs did not attack of their own, so he called a timeout in desperation.
"Everyone's defense is good, but it has lost our foundation. In order to go further in the playoffs, defense has always been the team's top priority. But the reason why we have always emphasized defense before is because The team's offense has always reassured me, but look at what your offense has become."
For the playoffs, what **Vic is most worried about is the team's defense. On offense, he has always been relatively confident because of Derrick Favors, Chen Feng, Parker, Leonard and Duncan. They are all good scorers.
With the team's overall offense weak, **Vicci still pinned his hopes on Chen Feng. He ordered the players on the field to try their best to create more scoring opportunities for Chen Feng.
In fact, this situation is normal. This is Chen Feng's first season. The regular season is nothing, but when it comes to the playoffs, Parker habitually starts to serve as the core. This is the same as Chen Feng's playing style after one season. There were differences. And the reason for **Vic's arrangement was very clear, which was to make Chen Feng the absolute core.
After the game restarted, the ball was in the hands of the Spurs. After Chen Feng received the ball on the right wing, he quickly started. At this time, the only defender in front of him was the bearded Harden.
Big Beard's defensive posture is quite good, and his expression is very serious, but he is a little too tense and his movements are slightly deformed. Defense has never been his strong point, especially when he encounters a player like Chen Feng, it is inevitable to feel nervous. , but when his expression fell into Chen Feng's eyes, an idea flashed in his mind, and an idea suddenly came to his mind.
A very realistic fake action made Harden nervous for a moment. His body center of gravity quickly increased, and the ball was quickly raised above his head. The action just now had already made Harden panic. Before Chen Feng could complete all the actions, he The whole person has soared into the sky.
Looking at the basketball that was getting bigger in front of him, Harden felt bitter in his heart. He didn't expect Chen Feng's fake moves to be so realistic. (To be continued...)
