I'm really good at shooting.

Chapter 650 Niyong joins forces!

In the second half, the difference between the Warriors and the Spurs was quickly apparent.

The performance of the Mavericks in the second half was not worse than that in the first half, and there were still many difficult goals, but the Warriors always firmly grasped the situation on the court.

Even though Nowitzki exerted his strength at the last moment, the Warriors were not in a hurry. Sun Hao faced each other, and the Warriors accepted the game 112 to 102.

The game was very exciting, but throughout the game, the fans found that the Mavericks had no chance at all.

This feeling is too similar to the Lone Ranger playing the Spurs before.

The only difference is that the Spurs were at a disadvantage before, but now the Mavericks are at a disadvantage.

Or it can be understood that the performance of the three teams of the Spurs, Mavericks, and Warriors is very stable, and there is no great fluctuation.

Then on this basis, the game becomes a simple 123 ratio problem.

The Spurs are 1, the Lone Ranger is 2, and the Warriors are 3. 3 is naturally the biggest.

After the game, the two teams shook hands.

Nowitzki's expression looked a little helpless, and he hugged Sun Hao tightly for a while when shaking hands.

Although the series has just begun, he seems to have a premonition of the Mavericks' fate.

Half a month later, the Eastern and Western Division semifinals were all over.

The performance of the Lone Ranger team is very stable. The point difference in each of the four games has not exceeded 10 points, and the smallest is even only 5 points.

But as said before, they failed to get too much money from the Warriors.

4 to 1, except for Dirk Nowitzki who broke out at home and scored 40+ to help the Lone Ranger narrowly win, they basically had no chance in the rest of the game.

The Warriors also became the first team to advance to the conference finals.

The remaining three groups of matches also ended in succession within the following week.

The results of the series between the Clippers and the Grizzlies were also surprising.

The Grizzlies directly swept the Clippers 4-0.

That well-known stalk in history reappears in this round of the series.

At the time of 1-0, the Clippers fans did not panic at all. The general saying is that a young team like the Grizzlies only had a strong impact at the beginning, and they withered after the second game;
When it was 2-0, the Clippers fans still didn't panic. When they returned to the home court, the Clippers should start to exert their strength;

At 3-0, the Clippers fans began to panic, but they still had full confidence in the team. According to the words of the fans: We have Kobe, everything is possible!
At 4 to 0, the Clippers fans were silent collectively, only some fans ridiculed: Believe in the Clippers, they can reverse it 5 to 4!
The Clippers' lineup and experience are too similar to the Lakers in history.

Especially when he was defeated by the Warriors last year, but he didn't make any big moves in the summer, which in itself hurt morale.

Add in a problem that hasn't been noticed by too many people: Kobe's knee injury.

His knee injury was to the point where he had to have surgery, but it dragged on.

Of course, these are the problems of the Clippers, and it is the performance of the Grizzlies that really determines the outcome of the game.

Because they are young, they are underestimated like the Mavericks, but in fact they are really strong.

If it weren't for the existence of the Warriors, Rose would have a high probability of winning the MVP this season as he did in the same period in history.

His ability to tear the line of defense is strong enough that the opponent has to shrink.

Coupled with the group of helpers around him mentioned earlier, the strength of this Grizzlies team is much stronger than the Bulls team he has stayed in in history.

So this result may seem unexpected, but it is not unexpected.

The matchup here in the Western Conference Finals was determined early, Warriors VS Grizzlies.

The Eastern Conference finals were relatively fierce.

The game between the Knicks and the Pacers took six games to decide the outcome. Anthony scored 6 points in G37, helping the Knicks win the series 4-2.

James and Wade did not perform very well in the entire series against the Twin Towers. Fortunately, just like in G6, Anthony was in a brave state and helped the Knicks to get through the danger

The rest of the game between the Celtics and the Bulls was even more intense, and the two teams played seven games before finally deciding the winner.

But this time the winner was not the Celtics, who are known for their ball-handling battles, but the Bulls, who reached the Finals last season.

Bosh joined the Bulls to practice three-pointers this season. The combination of him and Yi Jianlian's double-space interior made the Celtics suffer.

In this way, the matchup of the Eastern Conference Finals was also determined, Knicks VS Bulls.

Although there were some ups and downs in the process, in the end, it was the top two teams in their respective divisions that joined forces.

The game in the Western Conference ends early, and the Western Conference Finals will start first.

Before the start of the game, the league announced the ownership of the most important MVP of the season.

This time there is no suspense.

Just like the old Nelson who broke the convention and won the best head coach again, if the core of the 74 wins can't get the MVP, then the judges of this session will definitely be hacked.

Moreover, Sun Hao averaged 30.6 points, 4.7 rebounds and 9.1 assists per game this season, and he is completely worthy of the name of MVP.

There is no suspense in being elected, but the suspense is whether he can be elected unanimously.

After all, Sun Hao is now representing Anta, which will definitely affect the choice of media reporters to a certain extent.

When the final results were announced, the Warriors fans burst into excitement.

Because, Sun Hao got all 113 first ballots, so he was elected unanimously!
In this kind of season, no one dares to show off their skills, otherwise they will definitely become the target of public criticism!

"Perfect season."

The Warriors officially used this headline to report on the unanimous election of Sun Hao.

74 wins, plus unanimously elected MVP, there is no more suitable adjective than the word perfect.

Of course, there is still the final championship trophy away from the real "perfection".

Game [-] of the Western Conference Finals will be played at Oracle Arena.

Sun Hao's MVP award ceremony was also held before the start of the game.

When Sun Hao received the trophy from Stern, the entire Oracle Arena was in a state of ebullition.

But at this time in the next half, there was a fire in Rose's eyes that couldn't be hidden.

Although he was only in the third grade, the prehistoric power in his body could no longer be hidden.

After the opening ceremony, the two teams started playing soon.

The Warriors start with five tigers: Curry, Sun Hao, Durant, Ibaka, Oden;
The Grizzlies' starting five: Rose, Tony Allen, Gay, Luol Deng, Gasol Jr.;
The starting lineups on both sides can face each other, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. With the feeling of the tip of the needle against the wheat, the game is destined to be fierce.

This is indeed the case. Rose opened fire at the beginning of the game. He continuously broke through Curry's defense and entered the inside line, or used his ability to start and stop quickly to get rid of supplementary defenses and score throws, or use his excellent double-teaming to pass the ball. to teammates.

His state is as good as a year ago, the difference is that he has more experience, and his timing of shots and passes is better.

From "Is this guy a rookie?" to "The youngest MVP candidate", Rose used his abnormal talent to refresh people's understanding of young players.

The Warriors are a bit uncomfortable on the defensive end.

Because the Grizzlies actually have not only Rose, but also Gasol Jr.

This fat boy who was determined to beat his brother grew into a high-quality center in just three years.

Although it is not the first echelon, it is also the top of the second echelon.

His touch is not as soft as his brother's, but he still has the mid-range shooting ability that European insiders have, and the muscle gain brought about by weight loss makes him much stronger in confrontation than his brother.

In other words, his existence made the Warriors dare not easily replace Oden, because Ibaka couldn't guard against this kind of center.

Coupled with the fact that the Grizzlies' power forward is Ruhr Deng, Ibaka's space attributes are not effective on his side.

The small ball tactics that the Warriors are best at are useless for the Grizzlies.

Uncomfortable on the defensive end and constrained on the offensive end, the Warriors encountered the biggest challenge since the playoffs.

At halftime, they even trailed the Grizzlies 49-55.

This is also the first time since entering the playoffs.

And it is worth mentioning that Rose scored 20 points and 5 assists in the half.

"What language should I use to describe it?"

At the end of halftime, Miller was at a loss for words in the commentary.

The last person who made him react like this was Sun Hao before.

He saw the shadow of Sun Hao from Rose, or saw a possibility, a possibility that surpassed Sun Hao.

And the configuration of the Grizzlies is also very suitable for Rose, a strong defensive team, and there is no shortage of helpers. They have a higher ceiling than the previous Trail Blazers and Pacers!
"It's the Grizzlies and Derrick Rose's half."

Brin on the side used very appropriate words to describe it.

Not to mention defeating the Warriors, at least the Grizzlies' performance in this half was amazing enough.

Back from the halftime break, the Warriors' style of play has not changed, but the ball has obviously started to concentrate in Sun Hao's hands.

The reason why Curry has been called a system player for a long time in history is that when the Warriors system is blocked, Curry cannot use other methods to help the team win.

It is reflected that his single-core leadership ability is worse than that of Harden, James and others.

But Sun Hao said that before the old Nelson started the small ball system, he had his own system like James.

So when the small ball system can't work, it's time for Sun Hao to use his personal ability to solve the problem.

Then, the Grizzlies discovered that Tony Allen, who had been tried and tested before, didn't work for Sun Hao!

If it was Sun Hao before gaining weight, Allen's defense was still very threatening, and the finals did cause some troubles for Sun Hao.

But now Sun Hao, who has gained weight, plays in a very similar way to Harden, relying more on rhythm and confrontation.

And what makes him stronger than Harden is the skills he has accumulated before, such as dreamy footsteps, sudden stops, turning and leaning back, which make Allen's defense completely impossible.

Not to mention his pass playmaking ability.

"I still don't know how to describe it."

Miller said with a smile in the commentary booth.

He found that he might not be suitable to be a commentator anymore.

Because Sun Hao's performance in the second half also made him not know how to describe it.

Brin, who was on the side, had experience and started formulating the formula directly.

"This is Sun's half!"

There is nothing wrong with this wave of formulas.

The first half belonged to Rose and the Grizzlies, but the second half belonged to Sun Hao.

Here I have to mention the difference in the style of play between the Grizzlies and the Warriors, both of which are small ball tactics.

Strictly speaking, the Grizzlies' style of play is quite different from that of the Warriors, and closer to that of the Knicks.

Because their outside shooting ability is not as strong as the Warriors, and the positional space is not as wide as the Warriors, so they will rely more on defensive counterattacks for scoring.

Before playing against the Clippers, Kobe was limited by his knee injury, and the Grizzlies played a considerable number of defensive counterattacks.

But now they can't guard Sun Hao and the Warriors, they are very passive in the situation.

And the Warriors have also started to turn on Rose, Danny Green, Raja Bell, Sun Hao.

Rose's physical energy was exhausted very quickly, and he was obviously panting after the hit.

Gay also exposed his ability problems in a game of this intensity, unable to give Rose enough support.

The Warriors overtook the score in the second half of the third quarter and established the victory in one fell swoop at the decisive moment of the fourth quarter.

107 to 94, the Warriors completed a reversal in the second half and defeated the Grizzlies to win their first victory in the Western Conference Finals.

Rose showed his sharpness and Sun Hao was unstoppable. Each won half the game, and the winner in the second half was the real winner.

The game was very exciting, and the fans enjoyed watching it very much.

The Grizzlies are not as stable as the previous Lone Ranger team, but there is also a little more uncertainty, which makes the outcome more suspenseful.

Two days after the Western Conference finals, the Eastern Conference finals also started.

The Bulls have just finished the tiebreaker, so they can be regarded as non-stop.

This also made them look a little tired in the first game.

The Knicks also seized this point, using their iconic oppressive defense, and a defensive counterattack after a successful defense, and finally defeated the Bulls by a score of 118 to 92.

The two conference finals were somewhat surprising, but what fans can feel is that these four teams are indeed the four strongest teams this season.

The competition between them is not only about skills, but also about details.

And after watching these two games, the fans felt that some of the two groups had played against each other.

But to no one's surprise, after just over a week, the events would end one after another.

In the Eastern Conference Finals, the Bulls were too slow to come to the fore, and were kept under pressure by the Knicks. In the end, they lost by a big score of 1 to 4.

In the Western Conference finals, after the Warriors adjusted, they didn't give the Grizzlies a chance, and swept the Grizzlies cleanly 4-0.

The panting and helpless faces of Paul and Rose became the abbreviation for the conference finals.

No one expected these two results.

The Knicks and the Warriors, these two T0-level teams finally met in the finals as fans expected.

It's just that the mood of the two teams entering the final is different.

The Knicks are happy and happy. After all, the Eastern Conference Finals is much easier than they imagined.

But the Warriors are under a lot of pressure.

The reason for the great pressure is that Oden was accidentally injured in the fourth game and is expected to be absent for 1 to 2 weeks.

In other words, if you are lucky enough to catch up to the finals, if you are not lucky, you will be reimbursed for the season.

This was a big blow to the Warriors, but the Warriors' reaction was fairly calm.

On the one hand, Oden was actually injured for a period of time during the regular season. Although his long and short legs were relieved by shoes, the impact must have been there, and some injuries were hard to avoid.

On the other hand, injuries in the playoffs are too common. Last year when they played against the Clippers, Bynum's injury made it easier for them to advance. Now it's just a turn of events.
