Defending champion

Chapter 432 Playoffs

Chapter 1 Playoffs

The fans of the Hornets all stood up one after another, all their eyes were focused on Jack who was dribbling the ball, they were afraid that if they were not careful, they would miss a memorable moment...

Jack dribbles at the top of the three-point arc, and the rest of the Hornets try to open up space for Jack to break through.

At this time, it was Paul Pierce standing on the first line of defense.

However, Jack didn't pay attention to it at all. The opponent Paul Pierce Jack had an absolute advantage in terms of height, strength and speed.

However, in the Celtics' current camp, the best defense against Jack is Paul Pierce.

Facing Paul Pierce's defense, Jack took a step forward, and explosive force erupted from Jack's calf. Jack threw Pierce away with one step, and rushed into the Celtics' penalty area with the momentum of a tiger coming out of the mountain. Only Paul Pierce was left staring blankly...

Seeing Jack's lightning-like speed, the hearts of the Celtics fans at the scene couldn't help tightening their hearts, and they couldn't help breathing quickly, because they could almost foresee what would happen later...

The arena was quiet for a few seconds, "Boom..." The thunderous applause almost stomped the stadium...

…………

The whistle blew for the end of the game against the Celtics, announcing the official end of the 2006-2007 NBA regular season, followed by the brutal playoffs.

As expected, the Golden State Warriors defeated the Dallas Mavericks preparing for the playoffs at home, following the end of this game. The final results of the NBA Western Conference are also released: the first Dallas Mavericks in the West played against the Golden State Warriors who were eighth in the West, the second Phoenix Suns in the West played against the Los Angeles Lakers who were seventh in the West, and the San Antonio Spurs in the West played against the Houston Rockets. , The New Orleans Hornets, fourth in the West, played against the Denver Nuggets, fifth in the West.

After today's game in the Eastern Conference, the results of their final matchup of the playoffs came out.

The Detroit Pistons, which only lost 4 games in most of the season, occupy the first place. Their opponent is the Orlando Magic, the youth guard.Dwight Howard has gradually transformed this season and has become an emerging insider in the league.

LeBron James led the Cavaliers to achieve 50 wins and 32 losses to occupy the second place in the Eastern Conference. They will continue to fight against their old opponents in the playoffs last year, the Washington Wizards.

The Toronto Raptors have won the third place in the Eastern Conference by relying on the advantages of the division. Few people are optimistic that they can beat the opponents in the same division, the New Jersey Nets.

And last year's defending champion, the Miami Heat, only has the fourth place in the Eastern Conference. They will fight their old enemy Chicago Bulls.

Almost no one is optimistic about the Heat. O'Neal will come back in the second half of the season, and most of the media are still optimistic about the Bulls' iron barrel formation.Ben Wallace has more experience defending O'Neal than last year's Tyson Chandler, and PJ Brown, an old guy, can also cause some trouble for the Sharks, and the Bulls have a group of experts who are very good at defending Wade on the outside, such as the famous The little-known Adrienne Griffin, so some people even predict that the defending champion will be swept in the first round.

The Hornets' record of 45 wins and 37 losses this season does not look very good in the West.

However, the Hornets' ranking in the Western Conference has advanced 4 positions compared to last season. It has to be said that this is a very significant improvement.

As a loyal supporter of Jack, Charles Barkley was of course very happy to see Jack leading the army to the playoffs. The first thing he did after finishing his work was to post on his Weibo:

"No. [-] in the Western Conference. I believe Jack can go further this year. Jack, I am waiting for the moment when you wear the championship ring?"

"This guy did a good job, I'm a little jealous, haha, congratulations to him, he can go further in the playoffs!" said Kevin Garnett of the eliminated Timberwolves.

…………

There is a lot of news about Jack outside, but Jack is training in the arena.

Faced with the enthusiasm of the fans, Jack can only play in a better state and lead the team to go further in the playoffs.

Jack dribbled the ball and fired at the top of the three-point arc. With a "clang", the basketball shot by Jack bounced heavily on the top of the basket...

"Shit" Jack cursed loudly, then picked up the basketball on the basketball stand next to him, and continued to shoot it towards the basket...

Jack has already activated the skill of three-point death in the system...

Now that Jack's skill level has reached 10, Jack still has a lot of room for improvement...

But the premise is that Jack must endure this period of suffering...

After the end of the regular season, the Hornets have almost a week of rest to prepare for the playoffs.

In other words, today is a holiday, but Jack just can't stay idle. Taking advantage of this period of the holiday, Jack even went to the arena to practice.

Of course, Jack can also practice in the system, but the system is dead, basketball is a sport of five people after all.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, or what?
Jack had just been training for a period of time, and other players of the Hornets, such as Paul, Peja Stockovic, David West and other main players Continental, came to the training camp one after another.

Even Tyson Chandler, who was already injured, had already put on his training clothes, and under the leadership of the training, he also began to carry out recovery training.It can be seen that Tyson Chandler, who was already injured, couldn't bear it and wanted to return to the game quickly.

"Squeak... squeak... squeak..."

"Quick...quick...faster..."

"Run here...David block one for me..."

"Paul, you can throw higher..."

"Everyone pay attention to the running position...the position is vacant...the ball will definitely arrive immediately..."

……

Immediately, a lively scene was formed on the arena...

2006-2007赛季季后赛将于美国当地时间4月23号打响，最先开始的一场比赛是22日凌晨0点30分，在多伦多进行的篮网与猛龙的比赛。

如果打满7场，首轮比赛将于5月7日结束，之后将进入半决赛。依次类推，东西部冠军可能于6月5日左右产生。总决赛的首场比赛将于BJ时间6月8日进行，若打满7场，总冠军会于6月22日产生。

The game between the Hornets and the Nuggets will start at 24 pm on the 7th.

This round of matchup can be described as the most difficult game in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs, because the strength between them is the closest.

"Playoffs, the game really begins"

The Ultimate Showdown Between Jack and Melon! "

"Can Jack break through the first round! "

In a game, everyone has their own opinions, and the media didn't spare their ink, racking their brains to express their opinions for the game.

No matter who he is, he has his own attitude, whether he supports the Hornets, or the Nuggets, or neither. This is their attitude, and the media is clearly divided into two parts.
