Chapter 70 [Black Seven Black Six Black Five Black Five Eight]
Chapter 71 [Black Seven Black Six Black Five Five Eight]
Kobe is quite optimistic about the prospects of this season. He believes that it is time to launch an impact on the championship.
This year, it’s imperative!
Then, he remembered Phoenix's imp.
By some strange coincidence, I sent a text message to Xia Yin, meaning I will be waiting for you in the Western Conference Finals. Don’t miss the Western Conference Finals, then I will be disappointed!
When Xia Yin saw this text message, he didn't take it seriously at all. How could he be so angry?
Little snake, are you thinking too much?
"Western Conference Finals, just come and wait for me, I won't make it easy for you!"
Xia Yin does not have much confidence in breaking through the Lakers. He has a clear understanding of his own strength and the strength of the Suns at this stage, but he will not underestimate himself.
He can provide the team with the league's top perimeter defense, can provide a stable three-point output, and can even serve as the core of the tactics for a certain period of time.
But these cannot help the Suns break the original upper limit, not to mention that Stoudemire is still injured and has not returned from injury. He lacks an excellent big man's offensive point inside, and the strength of the Suns has been weakened a lot.
Of course, it is inevitable that the Suns can bring big trouble to the Lakers.
"Playoffs? Come on then!"
Xia Yin turned on the system directly and started calling Shenlan.
The Suns have won 50 games this season, which means he has 50 attribute points, but he has already added 13 attribute points before, and now he has 37 attribute points left.
"Entering the playoffs, the overall competition intensity will increase to a higher level. If you want to see immediate results, you still have to add to your shortcomings. After all, you only have 37 attribute points."
After thinking about it, Xia Yin spent 19 attribute points to increase the mid-range shot to 71, and spent 5 points to increase the rebounds to 61, leaving 13 attribute points.
After adding 12 points to the layup, the layup attribute was increased to 67, and the last 1 point was added to the pass, and the passing attribute came to 51.
The property panel after adding the dots is as follows:
Field of view: 61
Possession: 61
Passes: 51
Layups: 67
CIC:71
Three points: 80
Dunk:50
Rebounds: 61
Single defense:80
Assisted interviews: 80
"The attributes of mid-range shots, layups, and rebounds have been greatly enhanced. Now it depends on how many awards I can win this season. That is the best opportunity to obtain a large number of attribute points, and it is also an opportunity for me to strengthen again."
On April 21st, the playoffs will begin on time.
"Chinese Sports Channel, Tianchao Sports Channel, hello viewers, we are watching the first game of the playoffs between the Suns and the Nuggets. I am Yu Jia and I am Zhang Weiping."
It's the two of them again, but there is no game in Mosaic today, and the first game won't be until tomorrow, and Allen's Warriors team has not made it to the playoffs and is already on vacation.
As for the Lakers still having Sun Yue, that is just a pendant, no need to mention it.
When Dayao has no games, their first broadcast target is Xia Yin.
"At the end of the season, it was a pity for the Suns. They had a good start, but due to the team's injuries, they fell to seventh place in the Western Conference. This year, seven teams in the Western Conference have won 50 games, which also proves the competition in the Western Conference.
Intensity."
Teacher Zhang Weiping smiled and adjusted his glasses, "Actually, I think seventh place in the Western Conference is not bad. Although they played the Nuggets in the first round and this year's Nuggets are very strong, the Suns are not afraid of the Nuggets.
Similarly, this also avoids an early collision with Mosaic and the Lakers, so I think seventh place in the Western Conference is not bad."
Yu Jia also smiled, "Indeed, but it also depends on when Stoudemire will return. Only when he is here, the Suns will be fully equipped."
"But, Mr. Zhang, to be honest, Xia Yin's statistics are really great. Do you think he can win the Rookie of the Year?"
"There is great hope for this. Now it depends on the performance in the playoffs, which will have a great impact."
"Then let's look forward to today's game!"
On the TNT channel, Barkley and Kenny Smith were also broadcast live to commentate on the Suns' first game against the Nuggets.
"Barkley, how far do you think the Suns can go this year?"
Kenny asked curiously.
"I think how far the Suns can go depends on how far Shayne can persist. With the current situation of the Suns, even if Stoudemire returns, can he guarantee his condition?
Xia Yin is currently the player in the Suns who is most likely to break the ceiling, and I have confidence in him!"
Kenny Smith laughed loudly, "Have you really become a fan of Shain?"
"I have been his fan since he scored 44 points in the first game."
While they were chatting happily, Anthony and Billups were also chatting on the Nuggets bench.
"With Stoudemire not here, we are still second in the Western Conference. Will the Suns be our opponent? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Anthony smiled confidently, and Melon's smile was really contagious, calming Billups' anxious heart.
"Melo, don't underestimate the Suns. They are indeed very capable. That is to say, if Stoudemire is injured, if he is here, I really have no confidence that the Suns can beat him."
Anthony patted Billups on the shoulder, "Don't worry, leave it to me, I will let you go to Phoenix with a happy mood, hahaha!"
At this time, because of the arrival of the playoffs, this is Xia Yin's first time playing in the playoffs, attracting countless fans to watch this game, everyone is waiting for Xia Yin's wonderful performance.
On the Suns bench, Gentry is arranging tactics.
"Today is the first battle. According to our previous plan, Shane and I need you to lock down Billups. Nene and Kenyon Martin will be left to you, Lopez and Gortat!"
"O'Neal, I need you to strengthen the inside attack, try to contain the Nuggets inside, create opportunities for Lopez or Gortat, and make them move."
"Miller, Diaw, Richardson, you lead the second team. Your main task is to score points, and score points at no cost. Don't be stingy with your physical strength, and go all out from the beginning!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Phoenix! Come on!"
A group of people gathered together to cheer.
Before he came on stage, O'Neal patted Shain on the shoulder and said, "Thank you, thank you for your suggestion!"
Xia Yin smiled and said, "Shaq, you are a big shark. You have to stand up and don't let that little snake look down on you."
When he mentioned Kobe, O'Neal's eyes widened instantly, "Don't worry, I won't let you down!"
Relying on O'Neal in the paint was Shin's suggestion. Stoudemire couldn't play. They really needed an attacker in the paint. Besides O'Neal, the Suns couldn't find anyone else.
Gortat and Lopez are still very immature, Diaw can't stand up, and Miller is too old and lacks endurance. He can only go all out for more than one quarter at most.
Only O'Neal can stand up. He still has gas in the tank, but it's not that easy to use it.
This required Gentry to design tactics specifically for him, but Gentry had doubts about whether O'Neal could complete this task. It was Shayin who stepped forward and persuaded Gentry.
O'Neal doesn't need to do anything else, as long as he stands up when attacking, and he doesn't have to hold on for too long. As long as he can maintain a high-intensity offense for two quarters, O'Neal has completed his task.
This can be regarded as Shain helping O'Neal find the right direction to stay with the Suns. If nothing goes wrong, he will be traded away after the end of this season.
After all, his contract was too big and it didn't work, which made O'Neal look useless.
O'Neal's contract expires in 10 years, and he also knows that this is his last big contract. Now the Suns have a good chance of winning the championship. Even if they can't do it this year, they can definitely do it next year.
He wants to stay with the Suns, that's the most important thing.
It was also O'Neal who realized that the Lakers have a high chance of winning the championship this year. If the Lakers win the championship, Kobe Bryant will have four rings, equal to him.
He wants to seize this opportunity now and strive to win a championship with the Suns. By then, he will be able to win 5 championships, surpassing Kobe Bryant again.
Although he and Kobe reconciled, O'Neal still wanted to persist in some things, such as overwhelming Kobe.
This matter was also Shain's plan. Anyway, he was not the one who paid O'Neal a big contract. There is nothing to add to the Suns' lineup now.
Next season, as long as nothing happens, the strengthened he will definitely be able to lead the Suns to the championship. Wouldn't it be more fun to lead O'Neal?
Shain can laugh out loud when he thinks about Kobe's face if he really leads O'Neal to win a championship in the future.
On the court at this time, Xia Yin withdrew his mind and concentrated on dealing with the game. Locking Billups down, the Nuggets would not be able to play a systematic offense.
How many points can Anthony score? Can he kill the Suns?
From the beginning of the game, Schein followed Billups thoroughly, especially defending his passing route. Barnes cooperated with Schein. For this reason, Gentry put Hill in second place.
On the lineup.
With the Suns' current lineup, apart from O'Neal's hard work in the paint, the offensive points are Shine's three-pointers and Nash's offense. This means giving up part of the offense and strengthening defense.
Similarly, this also brought about significant results. Billups was not used to the combined defense of Shine and Barnes, and the Nuggets did not use tactics.
Anthony could only rely on one person to do the hard work. On the surface, it looked like the Nuggets were leading the Suns by about 8 points, but the situation was always under the control of the Suns.
George Karl saw the Suns' sinister intentions, called a timeout at the 7-minute mark of the first quarter, made special arrangements, and even reminded Anthony to be careful of the Suns trap.
But Anthony scored 9 points in 7 minutes. How could he listen to this when he was playing comfortably?
That is to say, he reluctantly listened to what Billups said, but after playing again, he indulged in personal offense, which caused the Nuggets' tactical system to fail.
When the substitutes came on in the second quarter, the Suns' previous loss was quickly recovered. By the time the Nuggets came on the court again, the Nuggets were already 5 points behind.
At halftime, the Suns trailed the Nuggets by 2 points, 61:63.
Similarly, Nene and Kenyon Martin had three fouls on each other and four fouls on each other. Only Anthony was overjoyed as he scored 34 points in the half.
In the third quarter, Xia Yin activated the [Nervous Knife] badge, combined with the [Big Heart] badge, and scored 15 points on 5 of 6 three-pointers in 3 minutes.
The Suns began to exert all their strength, and by the end of the third quarter, the Suns led the Nuggets by 12 points, 93:81.
The game lasted less than 5 minutes in the fourth quarter, but the Nuggets were already more than 20 points behind and could not catch up. George Karl sighed and made the substitution.
In this game, Xia Yin scored 31 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 steals and 2 blocks.
Three of these four steals were contributed by Billups, and two blocks were contributed by Billups and one by J.R. Smith.
O'Neal let go of his hand in the paint and scored 22 points and 8 rebounds. He played well today, and this was the data he got in 25 minutes of playing time.
As for Anthony, he scored 48 points in this game, but the Nuggets lost to the Suns by 24 points and were crowned the leader of the team.
One day later, the second game continued at the Nuggets' home court.
This time the Nuggets learned their lesson, especially putting a lot of effort into unfreezing Billups. Coupled with J.R. Smith's sudden burst and scoring 28 points, the Nuggets regained a victory.
The big score came to 1:1.
In this game, Xia Yin once again scored 30 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks, but the Suns still lost to the Nuggets by 5 points.
It is still a 2,3,2 game system, which means that teams with high regular season rankings, such as the Nuggets, will first play two games at their home court, and then go to the American Airlines Center in Phoenix to play three games. If there is no winner by then,
If it loses, then we will go to the Nuggets to play 2 more games at home.
After the game, everyone on the Suns flew back to Phoenix, quite satisfied with the result.
After all, it is already good to get 1 point in the away game.
Now coming to the American Airlines Center, this is where the Suns really shine.
Not surprisingly, the Suns won two games in a row, with the score reaching 3:1. The Nuggets were already standing on the edge of the cliff. The battle at Tianwang Mountain was their chance to counterattack, but it was also a chance for the Suns to finally defeat the Nuggets.
.
At the same time, the game between the Lakers and the Hornets has ended, especially in the fourth game. Perhaps this is God's destiny that Paul will encounter this obstacle in this playoffs.
In the fourth game, the Hornets were beaten by the Lakers. They lost by 31 points at halftime. By the second half, they had no intention of playing.
At the end of the third-level game, the score difference between the two teams had reached 52 points, and Paul was also beaten into confusion.
Especially in this game, the Lakers' substitutes suddenly turned into "gods of war", each one more accurate than the other. By the time the game was about to end, the point difference had reached 60 points.
David West made a strange mistake at the last moment and hit a mid-range shot and a 2-pointer, with a point difference of 58.
Another 58 points!
When Paul saw this number, his vision went dark and he almost fainted on the spot. How could he forget this?
Kobe was also shocked, he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
He even went to Paul for a hug and said that it was not intentional and that it was just a coincidence.
But Paul didn't say anything and turned around and left. With a big score of 4:0, the Hornets had ended this year's playoffs.
Other teams in the Western Conference, the Mavericks beat the Spurs, and the score reached 3:1. The Spurs were already standing on the edge of the cliff.
The score between Mosaic and Trail Blazers was 2:2, but Roy sprained his ankle. As expected, the Trail Blazers would be eliminated in the first round.
At this time, something magical happened.
If the Suns eliminate the Nuggets, it will be Black Seven.
The Mavericks eliminated the Spurs, and that was the Black Six.
Mosaic eliminates the Trail Blazers and that's Black Friday.
This year the Western trend is down, except for the Hornets!
