NBA Backer King: Chapter 658 champion
Chapter 658 Overall Champion
At eight o'clock, the two sides announced the starting list.
Suns: Wang Tiejun, Kenyon Martin, Zhu Fangyu, Josh Howard, Jason Williams
Nets: Yao Min, Nenad Kostic, Richard Jefferson, Vince Carter, Kidd
The finals were broadcast live across the United States by TNT TV, and the commentators were Barkley and Kenny Smith.
After getting the list, Barkley immediately said: "The Nets resorted to a two-tower strategy. Kostic was the No. 24 in the first round of 2002, but he only joined the league this season. He is 22 years old this year. He is a Serb. He has already played in Europe. Having played in the league for several years, he is an immediate force.
He has a very accurate mid-range shot, with a shooting rate of 43.6% for both near and mid-two points. This is a characteristic of European players, but there are no three-pointers, and the far two-pointers are average.
But he has a height of 213 centimeters and a tonnage of 115 kilograms. He can be responsible for the offense in the paint. He and Yao play a double-tower tactic, one inside and one outside, and Yao can pull out to shoot three-pointers. This double-tower tactic is very threatening. It is also an important reason why the Pistons were defeated by the Nets. "
Kenny Smith laughed: "Charles, the Suns have swept the West in three rounds. Do you think old K has a chance to lead the team to complete a four-round sweep and win the championship?"
Barkley didn't think about it, and shook his head directly: "I don't look down on Old K. I stayed at his house for a day yesterday. He had a big party, and many people attended. But the Suns swept the Nets. The chances are too small."
"Even the Trail Blazers were swept, do you think the Suns can't sweep the Nets?" Kenny Smith made a surprised expression.
"Don't underestimate the Nets, Yao, Carter, and Kidd. This is the Big Three lineup. They can reach the finals because of their strength. Under their feet, there are corpses like the Knicks and Pistons." Barkley said seriously Said.
Kenny Smith nodded and said: "Now ESPN's championship prediction still accounts for 95% of the Suns. Do you agree with this prediction?"
"I agree, but I still think the Suns can't sweep the Nets." Barkley said.
Then he explained: "Every team has the characteristics of each team. The so-called NBA has no weak teams. This is the case. You can beat a team with this characteristic, but you can't deal with a team with another characteristic. But the teams you beat, they can beat the teams that can beat you, it's called mutual restraint."
Kenny Smith asked suspiciously: "Charles, you mean that the Suns can restrain the Trail Blazers, but the Nets may restrain the Suns?"
"Yes, that's what I mean." Barkley nodded.
"Then why do you still agree with ESPN's prediction?" Kenny Smith questioned.
Barkley laughed and said: "Because the Suns have old K, if the Suns don't talk about old K, their lineup is not up to the championship level, and it may be difficult to even make it to the playoffs, but old K is one Zhu Qingtian propped up the Suns, so they came to where they are today."
Kenny Smith nodded and said: "You are right, on the basketball court, old K alone can change many things and results.
But why do you think the Nets are holding back the Suns? lineup? Still play? "
Barkley laughed: "The Nets should be said to have a star lineup, a Big Three lineup. Their style of play is completely dominated by the Big Three. They have three cores."
Kenny Smith said disapprovingly: "The giant lineup is useful against other teams, but it is useless against Old K, because he is the super giant among the super giants, and his efficiency is too high. The efficiency of ordinary superstars is not as good as him. , so he said a word, no one deserves to be called a giant in front of him."
Barkley laughed and said: "You are right, but the Suns are not just old K alone. What everyone else has to face is the lineup of the Big Three."
Kenny Smith smiled and nodded: "Well, I admit that what you said is right. However, I think that on the offensive end, Yao is the only one who is really threatening.
Kidd has the reputation of not attacking. His offensive efficiency is not flattering. This season, he only shot 39.8% in the regular season, averaging less than 15 points per game. After entering the playoffs, his shooting rate was only 38.8%. Such an offensive Efficiency, I can only say that unless he explodes, the more shots he takes, the faster the Nets will lose. "
Barkley said with a smile: "Well, Kenny, you are right, Kidd does have a shortcoming in scoring. But, pay attention, he is a point guard. If he can't guard him, his organizational ability It's going to be a headache for the Suns. And then his defense, it's going to hurt the Suns offense."
Kenny Smith began to contradict Barkley again, and immediately said: "Kidd's organizational ability is definitely conducive to the Nets' offense, but his defense will not cause much trouble to the Suns. You must know that the Bulls had Jordan + Pippen back then. + Harper, the three great perimeter defenders, was also crushed by the Suns in the Finals, and today the Nets' perimeter defense is far inferior to that of the Bulls back then."
Barkley said helplessly: "Okay, Kenny, what else do you want to say?"
Kenny Smith smiled and said: "Let's talk about Vince Carter, his shooting percentage in the Nets is 46.2%, which is not bad, but this is the data of the regular season. After he entered the playoffs, his shooting percentage dropped to 36.5%. , The three-pointers shot up to 42.5% in the regular season have also dropped to 31.6%. Such an efficiency, Charles, I want to say something I just said..."
Barkley decisively interrupted his partner, and said angrily: "The more shots he takes, the faster the Nets will lose, right?"
Kenny Smith laughed loudly, nodded repeatedly: "Yes, you guessed it right, that's what I wanted to say.
Charles, the Nets have the Big Three, but if they can really play the strength of the Big Three, they will definitely have the strength to crush other teams in the West. Can they still play so difficult in the three-round series in the East?
The first round was 4-2, and the second round and the Eastern Conference Finals reached the tiebreaker. They did beat the Knicks and the Pistons, but it did show that their strength is just that, just a pseudo-giant lineup. "
Barkley had no choice but to nod: "Well, Kenny, you are right, but in comparison, the Suns have a worse lineup.
The Suns have a civilian lineup except K, just like the Pistons. With K, they are completely dominated by him. He is absolutely the only core on both offensive and defensive ends, and he doesn't even have an outside core.
The Suns and the Nets are two completely different team building models and styles of play. If you want to beat these two teams, you need different lineups and styles of play. "
"How?" Kenny Smith asked.
Barkley said: "The Trail Blazers were swept by the Suns because the Trail Blazers and the Suns are the same team. Duncan is the only core on both offensive and defensive ends. The gloves are old. He doesn't have the ability to take on the outside core. So when Duncan was overwhelmed by Old K on both offense and defense, the Blazers lost the ability to resist and were swept away."
Kenny Smith couldn't help but nodded and said: "That's true, the Blazers have no core outside."
Barkley said again: "The Nets are different, they have three cores, even if they are pseudo giants, they are also cores, who dares to let them go?
Old K destroyed one core, and there are two left, they can still attack. "
"Charles, continue talking." Kenny Smith nodded.
"You're waiting for me at the back, right?"
Barkley glared at his partner and said with a smile: "Just say what you say, and the Nets have twin towers. Although Krstic's strength is not a star, he is still a threat. Unless the Suns replace rookie Varejao , Otherwise, the double-tower tactics against the Nets will be somewhat passive.
But if a rookie is replaced, no one can guarantee Varejao's performance. This is the finals, and the Suns should not easily use a rookie as the main force. "
"According to your analysis, the Suns are weaker?" Kenny Smith said.
"Aside from the old K, the Suns' civilian lineup is not as good as the Nets' giant lineup, don't you know?"
Barkley joked and said: "Let me put it this way, even if old K scored 100 points in a single game in the finals, the Suns may not be able to win against the Nets, because the Nets can score more points.
If the Suns want to win the Nets, Old K must explode with greater energy, both offensive and defensive ends must explode, especially the defensive end. When Yao pulls to the three-point line, his defense must cover the entire court, otherwise the Suns There is a great chance of losing.
Don't believe ESPN's joke-like predictions, they have always been very unprofessional. "
"Charles, are you not optimistic about the Suns?" Kenny Smith said in shock.
Barkley shook his head again and said: "Look, after all, the Nets have gone through two rounds of tie-breakers, and they have exhausted their physical fitness. In terms of physical fitness, the Suns have an absolute advantage. But it doesn't mean that the Suns will be like they are in the West. Win without a hitch.
But having said that, now I don't know much about the physical state of the Nets. If the physical energy is consumed too much, then everything is possible. "
Kenny Smith laughed and said: "Charles, if the old K defends Yao, whether it is Kidd or Carter, the offensive efficiency of the two of them is too poor, and the defense of Josh Howard and Zhu Fangyu is still good. use up.
As for the twin-tower tactic you mentioned, you said it yourself. Krstic doesn’t even have the strength of a star. I think Kenyon Martin can defend him, and he’s not too short. Not very threatening. "
"I knew you would refute me." Barkley smiled helplessly.
"The Sun King! The Sun King! The Sun King..."
At this time, following the appearance of Wang Tiejun, there was an earth-shattering shout in the Meixi Arena.
On the sidelines, the entire Phoenix elite gathered, from the governor to the mayor, business elites, and celebrity models, all of which became the embellishment of the American West Arena. At this time, these people are just like ordinary fans, shouting heartily.
Jordan, Kobe, Iverson, Tracy McGrady, Dameng, Thunder, Magic Johnson, Glider, etc., all sat in the front row.
Lao Huang Laojiang and other domestic stars are arranged in the second row, which is considered a very good position, the treatment of Hollywood first-line stars.
Dayao's parents were also sitting on the sidelines, also in the second row, sitting with Sun Le and the others.
Old Wang walked around from the sidelines, returned to the arena, took over the microphone of the live host, and, as usual, said a few words before the start of the finals.
At this time, the noise on the scene quickly descended from the peak, and fell silent within a few seconds.
"Old K is really majestic here!" Lao Jiang said enviously.
"Sun King! The most influential person among the Chinese in the world, besides him, is Cheng Long." Lao Huang said.
"It is worthwhile for a person to have their achievements in this life. It is worth living! Look at them, you and I have lived in vain!" Lao Jiang sighed.
"Suns fans, please shout out our goal!" At this time, Pharaoh shouted loudly.
"Defending! Defending! Defending..."
Suddenly, the entire American West Arena, the entire Phoenix, and the entire Arizona state, the shouts of "defending the title" resounded throughout the world.
"Defending?"
Jordan was in a trance for a while.
He also successfully defended his title once in 1992 and completed consecutive championships, and then the old K turned out to destroy everything about him.
*China, today is Wednesday, I don’t know how many people are sitting in front of the TV, and I don’t know how many students skipped class to watch the football.
Fengshen Street, the open-air stadium of the 57th Brigade, has long been crowded with people.
In Cangzhou, more than half of the people squatted in front of the TV.
Cangzhou now has the best basketball atmosphere in the country, no less than the capital, and basketball courts can be seen everywhere on the streets. Any company or unit that doesn’t form a basketball team and doesn’t play two games a week can’t get along in Cangzhou. No one is playing with you.
At the same time, the atmosphere of traditional Chinese medicine, martial arts and modern fighting is also extremely deep.
After taking over K Martial Arts, over the years, Arya has opened K Martial Arts all over the world. Chinese martial arts are famous all over the world, and even opened to Japan and South Korea.
The fighting company she founded also established her own modern fighting competition in 1998. In order to distinguish the K1 standing fighting competition established by Japan in 1993, the fighting competition in K Wuguan was named K Tianwang Fighting Competition.
Relying on the strong economic strength of the company, the King of K Fighting Tournament in the past two years has overwhelmed K1. Last year, the Japanese sold this event to a Hong Kong company.
In recent years, a large number of fighting masters have emerged from Cangzhou, and they have been fighting in major fighting events in the world all year round. The hometown of martial arts has now developed into the hometown of fighting.
…
At 8:30, the game officially begins.
Pharaoh personally jumped the ball with Dayao, and the Suns attacked.
The Suns are very cautious about the Nets. Vince Carter, Richard Jefferson, and Kidd can break through, so Lao Wang will guard the penalty area, Dayao will be pulled out, and Kenyon Martin will be responsible for the defense. If you can't defend, then let the rookie Varejao come up to defend Dayao, at least the disadvantage in height will be smaller.
In terms of tactics, the defensive end is man-to-man, and the offensive end is very simple. Xiao Fan only said one sentence and left everything to Old K.
Lao Wang moves down from the left elbow, Dayao Fang is on the right.
Zhang reasonably and quickly said: "Nenad Kostic is on the right waist, Kenyon Martin's mid-range shooting ability is average, it's no problem to take a step, Tiejun should be careful of double-teaming.
Oh, White Chocolate didn't have a chance to pass the ball under Kidd's defense, and gave it to Zhu Fangyu, and now Tiejun went to the low post on the left wing. "
At this time, Zhu Fangyu passed the ball, and Lao Wang received the ball in the low position on the left wing.
Dayao's defense is on the inside, put a step to defend, and mainly defend against breakthroughs.
And when he received the ball, Nenad Kostic, the right midfielder, began to enter the paint area. As long as he attacked here, he would definitely come over to help defend immediately.
At this time, Kenyon Martin had an open space, but he did not choose to pass the ball.
Martin's two-point shooting percentage is only 36%, and the two-point shooting rate is only 41%. Now it is just a small open space. Defense, the hit rate will definitely not be very high, it is better to shoot by yourself.
So the next moment after receiving the ball, he turned around and dribbled the ball with his left hand. His right elbow caught Dayao, who was retreating, and forced his way into the paint. rise.
Dayao is not as fast as Lao Wang, and he retreated half a beat slower. After taking off, Lao Wang had already fallen behind. Nenad Kostic took off under the basket to block the block. The jump height was not enough, and the defense height was only high enough King's elbow.
"boom!"
Amidst the violent explosion of baskets, Nenad Kostic was directly thrown over on the spot.
"Ohoo!"
In the American West Arena, cheers erupted.
"yeah!"
"The great Sun King used a round of dive-bombing to overturn the twin towers of the Nets!" the on-site commentator roared excitedly.
"Dayao Fang Lao K still can't defend, the movement speed is a little bit worse, and the agility is also a little bit worse." Su Qun said.
Zhang Reasonable analyzed: "The Nets want to rely on the twin towers to defend the Iron Army. There is only one way. The weak side assists to block the reasonable impact area on the left side of the basket in advance, forcing the Iron Army to shoot outside the reasonable impact area and reduce his hits. Rate.
But in this way, whether Kenyon Martin, who was emptied, performs a back cut or picks and rolls for his teammates, the weak side will form a large open space. With the iron army's vision and passing ability, he should not let go of this large open space. . "
Su Qun nodded and said: "This means that there is a benefit and a disadvantage."
Nets offense.
Dayao did not enter the low post, or even the free throw line, but directly landed on the three-point line at the top of the arc. Nenad Kostic entered the low post. The Nets twin towers formed a high and a low twin tower attack formation.
According to the defensive requirements, Kenyon Martin defended under Dayao, and Lao Wang defended the low post.
At this time, Kidd blocked Dayao's pick-and-roll and broke through with the ball. At this moment, Nenad Kostic, who was trying to get a position at the basket, suddenly ran to the left wing and made a move to ask Kidd for the ball. Actions.
Facing Nenad Kostic's pull-up, Lao Wang could only choose to continue to defend the basket and block Kidd.
At this time, Kidd broke through and scored the ball and gave it to Nenad Kostic.
"brush!"
Splashes appeared and two points were hit.
Barkley complained when he saw this: "It's no wonder the white chocolate was sold by the king. When Kidd used the wall to break through with the ball, I couldn't see him there."
"He was blocked by Yao. Yao's pick-and-roll quality is one of the best in the league. From a tactical point of view, his pick-and-roll quality is even higher than that of old K." Kenny Smith laughed.
"Yes, he has three points, but old K doesn't, so Kenyon Martin can't let him go." Barkley laughed.
The Suns attacked and advanced to the frontcourt.
If in the regular season, the Suns are often organized by White Chocolate, but in the playoffs, everything is concentrated in the hands of Lao Wang, just like a highly centralized politics, where Lao Wang controls everything.
Seeing old K settling in a high position, White Chocolate quickly got rid of Kidd and passed the ball.
Dayao is defending below the free throw line, and Nenad Kostic is still guarding the right waist.
Josh Howard ran without the ball on the left wing. Through continuous backrunning, after getting rid of Vince Carter, he quickly cut to the basket along the baseline.
High position, when Howard ran to the low position on the left wing, Lao Wang suddenly hoisted the ball in from the sky above Dayao with one hand.
"boom!"
Josh Howard received the ball in the air, dunked with the opportunity, and completed an alley-oop.
Zhang Reasonable said: "There is no way to defend this ball. It is impossible for Dayao to let Tie Jun go down to defend Josh Howard, so that Tie Jun's hook is absolutely 9 out of 10 shots from the high position."
Su Qun said with a smile: "It should be made up by Nenad Kostic. He made it up just now, but he was a step behind."
2:4. At this time, the Nets attacked and advanced to the frontcourt. The Twin Towers were still high and low. But this time, the ball was handed over to Dayao first.
Dayao held the ball with both hands and held it high above the top, not giving Kenyon Martin a chance to steal the ball. While on his side, he calmly swayed to the left, easily shaking Kenyon Martin, then turned right to face the basket, and only jumped a foot High, the basketball flew to the hoop.
When he saw Dayao swaying to the right for the first time, Pharaoh rushed from under the basket.
He knows Dayao too well. Dayao is Dameng's apprentice. What is Dameng best at? Shaking people, so is Dayao.
"Oops!"
Dayao turned around and took off. As soon as he jumped up, he saw Big Brother flying over, and he knew that the ball was about to make a fool of himself.
"Snapped!"
Lao Wang grabbed Dayao's jump shot with one hand.
Being caught on the three-point line, Dayao was dumbfounded, brother, please show me some face, okay, I’m already hiding on the three-point line, why don’t you let me go? No one has scratched my hat yet.
"Ohoo!"
Yao Min, who was able to grab the 229 cm cap head-on, immediately cheered at the Meixi Arena.
"Beautiful! Old K rushed to the top of the arc to catch the little giant..." the live commentator roared excitedly.
"Dayao is going to suffer a lot today." Mother Yao laughed.
"His strength is far behind Tie Jun, Tie Jun is too strong! He is a superman on the basketball court!" Dad Yao shook his head.
The sun advances to the frontcourt at this time, and Lao Wang's position is different this time.
He pulled out and set up a pick-and-roll for Josh Howard on the left wing. Howard drove the ball to the basket, and he immediately followed up.
Dayao who came out did not keep up with the rhythm and fell behind. Nenad Kostic returned to the basket to defend the first and second.
At this time, Howard burst into the basket. After meeting Nenad Kostic, he threw the ball behind his head and then dodged to the side.
"It's over!"
Nenad Kostic was shocked.
Old Wang flew up, grabbed the ball with one hand, and then smashed it violently.
"boom!"
During the roar of the basket, Nenad Kostic fell to the ground. In just three minutes, he was dunked and fell to the basket for the second time.
"Beep!"
The referee's whistle sounded, and Nenad Kostic did not jump to defend and blocked the foul.
"Boom!"
The entire venue was in a state of boiling.
"Oh hoo..."
The roars of the two on-site commentators also echoed endlessly.
Before the penalty was added, the Nets called a timeout.
Kenny Smith praised: "The Suns played a layered wing attack. It seems that coach Van Gundy Jr. still has a hand in offense."
Barkley said with a smile: "With the old K around, he doesn't have to worry about attacking at all, because the most powerful low-post offensive machine in the history of the league is in his hands. As long as the coaching staff comes up with tactical ideas, the old K will be able to implement them."
After the timeout, Pharaoh made an additional free throw, 2:7, the Nets attacked.
This time, Dayao did not go to the top of the arc, but settled on the left-wing three-point line.
This is farther from the basket, and it is more difficult for Wang to make up for it than the top of the arc.
Kidd took the ball to the left wing and played pick-and-roll tactics with Dayao.
After receiving the ball, Dayao misplaced and hit White Chocolate, ignoring the latter's defense, and shot a three-pointer. At the moment when the ball flew to the basket, countless people's eyes were fixed on the orange ball.
"brush!"
Splashes appeared and a three-pointer was hit.
It should feel good today, Dayao raised his fist excitedly.
Barkley said: "A 229-centimeter giant center pulls up to the three-point line to shoot three-pointers. In the 1990s, it would only be called a softie.
But Yao is not only good at jumping outside. His low-post pace is learned from Dameng, and he has learned a lot of low-post offensive skills from old K. Low-post offense is also very powerful.
Especially the low-post turnaround jumper, step-back jumper, and hook, which can be called unsolvable skills. Among his offensive proportions, low-post offense far exceeds outside shooting.
For this reason, he did not get the title of soft egg. "
Kenny Smith said: "Yao's appearance can be said to have changed the league's understanding of the use of centers. He is a completely different type of center from the super centers like Old K."
Barkley thought for a while and said: "A space-based center is compatible with a traditional center. Yao should be a transitional stage for the center's position to transition from the basket to the outside."
Suns offense.
The head coach of the Nets is Lawrence Frank. He called a timeout just now. He rearranged his defensive tactics. He couldn't guard against Old K. The Nets had no chance of winning.
Used to play man-to-man, but now he has changed to play alliance, two-three defense.
Up two down three, the main defense is low and the basket, with the center sitting under the basket, the defense of the low attack and the control of the rebound are very strong.
The reason why they play second and third defenses is because the Suns have no destructive and scoring stars on the perimeter. As long as they defend Old K, they can destroy the Suns' offense.
Dayao is in the low post on the left wing, Nenad Kostic is at the basket, Richard Jefferson is in the low post on the right wing, Vince Carter is on the right wing, Kidd is on the left wing.
Pharaoh saw that it was a two-three defense, so he could only enter the low position.
If he doesn't enter the low post, although the Suns will take advantage of the perimeter, the low post offense will be gone. The three of them are in the low post, and they can't get in, and they can't get in from the front and the flanks. The second down is all lost too, so he has to get into the low post.
"See how the old K fights?" Barkley shouted.
At this time, Lao Wang entered the basket, and Nenad Kostic immediately circled forward, while Dayao and Jefferson did not move to the basket for the time being.
"Give it in!"
Xiao Fan shouted loudly from the sidelines.
White Chocolate borrowed Zhu Fangyu's pick-and-roll, got rid of Kidd and hoisted the ball to the basket.
As soon as the ball was shot, Dayao and Jefferson on the left and right wings in the low post rushed to the basket at the same time, and double-teamed the basket.
Pharaoh put Nenad Kostic on his left elbow, grabbed the ball with his right hand after taking off, and when he landed, he was surrounded by three people.
"Boom!"
The moment Lao Wang landed, he felt someone behind him, and his right foot stepped back instantly. Under the back arch of an iron mountain, Jefferson fell back directly.
The next moment, Nenad Kostic, who was directly in front of the basket with his left elbow, held the ball in his right hand, Lao Wang burst into shape, and dunked with the ball in his right hand.
Da Yao and Nenad Kostic on the opposite side of the basket jumped to block the shot at the same time.
"boom!"
The basket trembled violently, Lao Wang bounced faster and higher, over the heads of the two, blasted the basket of the Nets half a beat first, and caused Nenad Kostic's thug foul again.
"Ohoo!"
Huge cheers broke out again in the American West Arena.
"Take three from the basket! The penalty area sweeper is back! The Sun King dunks the little giant!" an on-site commentator shouted with all his might.
"Too strong! Old K ignores the three-person double-team, he is showing the most powerful dominance at the basket, epic dominance..."
Another on-site commentator then roared.
"If such double-teaming can't limit the old K's strong attack at the basket, then the Nets can only hope that the old K's physical energy is exhausted." Kenny Smith said excitedly.
"The Bulls played four-on-one, five-on-one at the basket back then, but they still couldn't help old K. The Nets' three-on-one defense is no better than the Bulls at that time." Barkley laughed.
"At that time, there was no K-law, and the situation is still different now. If it was at that time, not only Jefferson was knocked down just now, but the old K would sweep away Yao and Kostic before attacking the basket." Ken Nismith laughed.
Barkley said with a smile: "Before the K-law was introduced, the old K played the name of the restricted area sweeper. That was the most dangerous stage in the league's inside line. Everyone in the inside player was in danger and risked his life to play.
But during that period, it was also the most domineering period in the alliance's low positions, and it will never appear again in the future. "
"brush!"
Extra penalty hit, 5:10, the Nets attack.
Vince Carter hit Zhu Fangyu with the ball on the right wing.
Since he was dismissed by Bowen, he has strengthened the training of pull-up and back-up techniques, and now these techniques are used very well.
"boom!"
Unfortunately, Zhu Fangyu's defense is not weak. Under his influence, Carter missed the ball. In terms of offensive ability with the ball, he is far inferior to Kobe, Tracy McGrady and Iverson.
Lao Wang sits at the basket, protects the backcourt rebound, and the Suns attack.
This time he didn't have a strong position, and he played a few times in a row, so he had to take a rest.
So Bai Chocolate took over the organization and began to break through with the ball. After borrowing Zhu Fangyu's pick-and-roll, he rushed from the right wing to the paint area, and then was double-teamed by Dayao and passed the ball out from the gap.
"brush!"
Old Wang received the ball from the left waist and hit a positive hook. Dayao was too late to return to the defense, so he hit another ball.
"The Big Three of the Nets? No one deserves to be called a giant in front of me. What are you doing with these three little bean sprouts? It's too useless. You lose too easily. My championship has no gold content!"
Easy to score another goal, Lao Wang was happy, and sprayed trash talk at the Big Three of the Nets.
The three of them smiled wryly. Dayao and Vince Carter don't talk trash, and Kidd, who is good at trash talking, dared not do so for fear of being beaten.
"brush!"
The Nets attacked, Dayao entered the low post on the left wing, caught the ball and hit Lao Wang with his back, turned around and made a jumper, but Lao Wang couldn't block the block and hit a goal.
"Beautiful! Unable to solve the turnaround jumper, Dayao made two of three shots and one of three three-pointers. Now he has 5 points." Su Qun laughed.
"This kind of offense, whether it hits or misses, all depends on his touch, just like when he pulls outside and misses a three-pointer." Zhang Reasonable laughed.
Kobe sat on the sidelines, seeing Dayao's ball, his eyes lit up, and his heart itched.
He thinks that Yao is the most suitable center for him, even better than the old K. In the past, the old K didn't have a mid-range shot and couldn't pull it out, which affected his breakthrough.
Thinking of joining forces with Yao in a year's time, his heart also became hot.
"Erwin, who are we going to choose this time?" He asked suddenly.
Next to Magic Johnson said: "We are the tenth pick, the management decided to choose a center, and now they are looking at a high school student."
"It takes many years to cultivate."
Kobe frowned, and immediately put the draft behind him. No matter how good a high school student is, these few years can't help him. Let's look forward to Yao.
7:12, the Suns attack, White Chocolate misses a shot, Dayao grabs a rebound, and the Nets attack.
This time Dayao was in the low post, Nenad Kostic pulled up to the high post, and then played the twin towers tactic.
On the right wing, Kidd broke through with the ball, but White Chocolate failed to keep up. After entering the paint, Lao Wang could only return to the basket. Then Dayao received Kidd's pass, made a jumper near the basket, and scored another goal.
9:12, the sun attacks.
"Dayao scored 7 points on 3 of 4 shots. It feels very hot today!" Su Qun said excitedly.
Zhang reasonably analyzed: "As soon as Dayao feels good, Tie Jun must strengthen his defense, and in this way, the defense of other positions will be reduced, and the offense of the other two superstars will also be played.
Of course, no offense can be counted as half, so that the Nets' offense will be active, and the two teams may be at a stalemate, unable to play a one-sided game.
So the Tiejun should pay attention to physical distribution, two-three defense, double-teamed by multiple people at the basket, try to distribute the ball and let open teammates play.
The Nets have played two tie-breakers, and their physical fitness is definitely not as good as that of the Suns. As long as the Suns are not impulsive, the initiative of the series is in their own hands. "
"Director Zhang, do you think the Nets have a chance to win? I mean the series." Su Qun asked suddenly.
Zhang Lili said: "It's difficult. Occasionally, there is a chance to win a game, but the series is really difficult. The most important thing is physical fitness. Tie Jun is a super physical monster, and the Nets have played two tie-breakers. Dayao, so tall, consumes a lot of physical energy, physical fitness is a problem for him."
Nodding, Su Qun said: "Yes, physical fitness, Dayao feels good now, but once his physical fitness fails, he can't hit the basket under the defense of old K, and his shooting percentage will definitely drop."
The game was indeed as the two said. In the first half, the two teams played inextricably. Even if Lao Wang scored 24 points in the half, the Suns could not take the lead, and the score could only rise staggered.
Dayao played 18 minutes in the first half. Because he felt good, he focused on attacking with all his strength. Under the defense of Lao Wang, he made 7 of 13 shots, with a shooting percentage of 53.8%, 1 of 3 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws. Got 18 points.
Carter made 3 of 9 shots and 1 of 4 three-pointers, scoring 7 points. Kidd made 2 of 5 shots, including one three-pointer, scoring 5 points.
The Big Three jointly contributed 30 points in the first half, plus Jefferson's 8 points, Krstic's 6 points, and the Nets' five main players contributed 44 points, biting the score.
51:53, the Suns only lead by 2 points at home.
In the second half, Dayao's physical fitness declined, and his hand feeling declined accordingly. In the third quarter, he made 3 of 7 shots and ate two big hats from Lao Wang, scoring 7 points in a single quarter.
After the third quarter, 71:81, the Suns led by 10 points.
At the end of the quarter, Dayao's condition was even worse. He was defended by Lao Wang and scored 1 of 5 shots and only scored 2 points.
The inside offense collapsed, and the offensive efficiency of Kidd and Carter could not support the overall situation at all, 89:111. In the end, the Suns won the G1 game with a big victory of 22 points.
Pharaoh scored 45 points, shooting 62.5% from the field, and sent out 9 blocks, including 5 shots by Dayao, 1 shot by Carter, 2 shots by Nenad Kostic, and the other shot was given to Kiev. Do not attack.
Dayao made 11 of 25 shots, 44% from the field, 1 of 3 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 27 points.
"Can't move anymore?"
At the end of the game, Dayao sat directly on the floor, and Lao Wang stood beside him and joked: "Boy, this is the result of strength. We played six games in the first round. If you can solve Nick as soon as possible in the next two rounds Adams and the Pistons, is the physical condition so bad?"
"tired!"
Dayao responded with just one word, all the muscles in his body were jumping, and his legs had cramped several times.
Not only was he tired, but the rest of the Nets were also tired. After the game, they didn't leave immediately, staying on the spot to recover their blood.
Barkley shook his head and said: "G1 game is like this, the third quarter will not work, the next series, what will the Nets do?
Played six games in the first round, followed by tie-breaks in two rounds, and 20 games in three rounds. They have already exhausted their physical fitness, and the Suns swept three rounds here, and their physical strength is too great.
It seems that I want to take back what I said before. The Nets are indeed not worthy of the Big Three lineup, and the Suns may really sweep them. "
Kenny Smith said: "Yao's physical fitness is really bad. This time, old K is indeed likely to lead his team to sweep the championship in four rounds."
Barkley said: "In the 82 games of the regular season, Yao played 74 games, averaging 35 minutes per game, 20 games in the three rounds of the playoffs, plus this one, a total of 95 games this season, such a big man , being able to survive until now is actually pretty good, after all, there are very few physical monsters like Old K."
On the second day, ESPN adjusted the chances of both sides to win the championship again. This time, the Suns' chances of winning the championship were as high as 99%, and the Nets only had 1%.
Even Las Vegas took part. Some casinos offered odds for the finals, and it was the odds for the Suns to sweep the championship.
The odds for the Suns to win the championship are 1.1, the odds for a four-to-one championship are 1.65, and the odds for a four-to-two championship are as high as 2.28.
This means that casinos are extremely optimistic about the Suns sweeping the championship.
At noon on the 8th, Jordan called Lao Wang and said, "Old K, I bought the Suns to sweep and win the championship. Don't be careless!"
"How much did you buy?"
Old Wang was looking after Er Bao who was running around in the small reception room, and asked casually.
"1 million, 1.1 bet." Jordan said.
"If you win, you get 100,000, and if you lose, you pay 1 million. Flying man, you are a fool!" Old Wang joked.
"You don't understand the fun of gambling." Jordan hung up after finishing speaking.
"Damn, trust me so much, you deserve to win!"
Old Wang put away his mobile phone and muttered angrily.
He suddenly remembered something, dialed the phone again, and asked after the call: "Flying Man, you sold the shares of the Wizards. The media said that you met with the owner of Bobcats. Do you want to buy shares of Bobcats?"
Jordan said: "You know how much influence I have in North Carolina, which is my base camp. He wants me to join the Bobcats and use my influence to help the Bobcats compete with the NCAA. Old K, why do you ask this?"
"Boring, just ask."
Pharaoh then hung up the phone.
"Hey, where's Er Bao?"
Put down the phone, look down, the baby is gone, and quickly check around.
"Whoah!"
Erbao's loud cry suddenly sounded outside.
Old Wang hurriedly ran out. When he went to the living room, he saw Er Bao being pinned on the floor by Zhou Zhou, crying loudly.
At this time, the two nannies went up and hugged Zhou Zhou away, and also hugged Erbao.
"Oh, mom, mom..." Er Bao continued to cry.
"Zhou Zhou, you are bullying your younger brother again? Husband, didn't I tell you to be more careful?"
Brother Fei, who was dealing with Feige's affairs remotely in the upstairs study, heard the cry of his youngest son and ran out quickly.
"Blame me, I just made a phone call, Erbao messed with his sister again, this kid makes troubles all day long." Old Wang said helplessly.
"Sophistry! He is only one year old, what trouble can he cause?"
Brother Fei glared at Lao Wang, and asked as he went downstairs: "Zhou Zhou, why are you bullying my brother again?"
Zhou Zhou said indifferently: "He came and snatched my toys, and I didn't provoke him."
"He is the younger brother, you are the elder sister, four years older than him, he is only one year old, not sensible, you let him!"
Brother Fei came over to take Erbao from the nanny, and as soon as he got into her hands, Erbao cried even harder.
"Little brat, you just know how to pretend!" Zhou Zhou glared at Erbao.
"If you bully my brother again, next time I will let you stay in the country and not take you with me." Fei Ge said angrily.
"If I don't come, I won't come, hmph, I'll live at my aunt's house and be my daughter." Zhou Zhou also said angrily.
Brother Fei is speechless, Dabao kisses his second aunt, and wants to be his son, and Zhou Zhou kisses his elder aunt, and wants to be his daughter. The first two cannot be relied on, and from now on, only Erbao will support him.
Lao Wang looked at Er Bao, frowning.
"What's the matter?" Brother Fei asked.
"Brother Fei, I think you are too used to the second treasure. Look, my sister is crying like this before hitting the ground. Don't raise a spoiled child." Old Wang said.
"It's all on the floor, can't you cry?" Brother Fei said angrily.
"This kid's personality is not like mine at all. He cries and cries all the time. Dabao is like me. It's okay to be beaten up. He has been since he was a child. When I was young, my elder sister and second sister beat me up, and I let them beat me. It doesn't hurt anyway, and it exhausts them. "Old Wang glared at Erbao and said.
"Puchi!" Fei Ge laughed happily.
"Hee hee... Eldest aunt and second aunt are so powerful, they can beat daddy, hee hee..." Zhou Zhou also laughed and fell to the floor.
"I slipped my tongue!"
Old Wang slapped himself, and poked Er Bao's **** with another finger, and Er Bao started crying again.
Watching it every week and Monday, jumping and jumping, I also want to poke Erbao's little **** with my finger, but unfortunately I can't reach it.
"Too lazy to talk to you guys!"
Brother Fei had no choice but to carry Erbao upstairs as he had nothing to do with Lao Wang and Zhou Zhou.
…
On the evening of the 14th, at ten o'clock, the Nets' home field, the Army Aviation Arena.
"Beep!"
With a long whistle, the G4 game of the 04/05 season finals ended.
"Ohoo!"
Two thousand extremely excited Suns fans began to revel, and everyone on the Suns bench also rushed into the stadium amid cheers.
"Congratulations to the Suns, they successfully defended their title and won their fifth championship!"
"Congratulations to old K, won the 8th championship!"
At the CCTV commentary booth, Zhang Lili and Su Qun had already stood up, shouting excitedly.
In the TNT commentary seat, Barkley looked envious, and shouted excitedly: "The 8th, old K is the 8th, he is the modern Lord of the Rings, I think he will break Russell's record of 11 crowns sooner or later, As long as he doesn't retire."
Kenny Smith nodded and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the old K, congratulations to the Suns, and another four-round sweep to win the championship. With this Suns lineup, it is actually very lucky to be able to complete the four-round sweep and win the championship. If the Nets are not there The Eastern Conference is running out of energy, and the Suns won the championship is not going so smoothly."
Barkley nodded and said: "Now the Suns have successfully defended their title. This is also the first time in the history of the Suns to successfully defend the championship. It is worthy of special congratulations.
And what old K has always wanted is a dynasty, yes, you heard me right, he has always hoped to establish a sun dynasty in the Suns, and today he successfully defended the title, this is a foundation, he has already laid the foundation for his second dynasty Base. "
Kenny Smith said in a serious tone at this time: "Then the Suns will become the public enemy of the league, the real public enemy."
Barkley nodded and said: "In the next offseason, other strong teams will try their best to strengthen, but the Suns can only find ways to strengthen through the free market."
"So I want to say that the real difficulty is that the Suns want to defend their dynasty next season." Kenny Smith said.
Twenty minutes later, Wang Tiejun won the FMVP with unanimous votes, which is also his seventh FMVP.
"Congratulations to the host for defending the championship, and a special reward of 10,000 points. Congratulations to the host for winning the FMVP, and hereby reward 5,000 points."
