i'm really an insider

Chapter 411 Chapter 408: The story about 58 in those years (5.9K begging tickets)
Carmelo Anthony made 7 of 4 three-pointers and once again scored 60 points with a shooting rate close to 30%.

The Nuggets easily won the Mavericks 124 to 110 in the fifth game, and the German chariot was overturned to the ground.

With a total score of 4 to 1, the Nuggets advanced strongly to the Western Conference semifinals!
The 25-year-old Anthony seems to have ushered in his first peak season.

Because during the regular season, everyone's attention was attracted by the Trail Blazers, Lakers, Green Kai, Cavaliers and Magic.

So, many people are very surprised now-Anthony is so hard now?
After five games in the series, Guagua averaged 30 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 2.2 steals per game.

The most important thing is that Angua's total shooting percentage in five games reached 49.1%, and his three-point shooting percentage was 44%.

This is a bit outrageous.

Angua is no longer iron, and the youth of countless people is over again.

The Nuggets successfully advanced, which undoubtedly made all the Nuggets very excited.

Only Iverson couldn't be happier.

Because of this round of the series, as a former MVP player, he can only play in garbage time in humiliation!

That's right, George Karl abandoned AI early this season to help Billups.

AI was also not given a chance in the playoffs.

The most embarrassing thing is that without him, the Nuggets were reborn from nirvana...

This Nima...

It made the AI ​​want to retire now.

For the Nuggets last season, it was mainly that Guagua played AI, AI played JR, and JR played Guagua again.

Billups?

Oh, the one who dribbles across half court.

Winning is the Guagua society, AI Liu beeps, JR is not nervous and every day is an All-Star.

Once the game is lost, Billups will organize a few.

The poor former FMVP has been blamed for a season.

But this season, after George Karl abandoned AI, the Nuggets have played a system instead.

Moreover, the most important thing is that Billups also brought the defensive style of the Pistons back then.

His ability to inspire teammates in the locker room is beyond the reach of AI and Guagua.

This stunned the Nuggets, a wave beep team, into a team with a resolute defensive temperament.

The Nuggets, who used to only attack but not defend, have ranked eighth in the league in defensive efficiency after slowing down this season.

掘金队用事实证明，1+1真的可以大于1+1+1。

Guagua once thought that AI was his soul mate, but who knew that his soul mate was a bald flounder!
Sure enough, you can't judge people by their cover.

Iverson said he was very embarrassed. He thought that coming to the Nuggets could create brilliance, but he was humiliated.

The luck of misfortune is that AI's contract is about to expire this summer, and he no longer has to endure George Karl.

He can go to a new place and start over!
restart.
34 years old, is there a chance to start over?
AI smiled wryly.

Time is gone forever.

For Portland, Carlisle is already seriously preparing for the game.

Moreover, he emphasized to everyone more than once: "The Denver Nuggets are by no means easy to deal with!"

Indeed, Wayne agrees with this.

In 09, how strong were the Nuggets without AI messing them up?
It can be explained with a number - 58!

That's right, Paoer's 58 tragedy in the original history was played out by the Nuggets in the 09 playoffs.

It can be called a cannon-born shadow.

I taught the guy so much that I never mentioned the floor of the Western Conference Finals again.

At that time, when Wayne watched the game, he had a feeling in his heart: This is too f*cking 5 8 [-]!

Pao'er, who was sitting in the locker room, found Wayne staring at him with a smirk, with question marks all over his face.

Brother Wei, did you remember the happy things between me and him?

Wayne: Happy, very happy!You kid, you are lucky to have met me!otherwise……

Carlisle's tactic is very clear, that is to use Tony to defend Guagua.If you can limit Guagua, you can limit the Nuggets' offense.

As for the Nuggets' seventh-ranked defense in the league, Carlisle believes that with the ability of Wei Shuangpao, the seventh-ranked defense in the league is a fart!
On the other hand, George Karl didn't expect anyone to stop Wayne.

Wayne is unstoppable!

He decided not to look for Wayne this time, but to start with Paoluo, the core point guard!
What is the scariest thing about the Trail Blazers?
It is the level of all three stars!
In the first round against the Grizzlies, Wayne, Paoer and his sister-in-law proved that they are a terrible combination that can get [-] points with just three people.

George Karl didn't know what Hollins was thinking. Even though the Bears' defensive strategy against Wayne was so successful in the first game, he gave up this strategy because of Gasol's 29 points, causing the entire series to collapse.

Hollins is typical, ability doesn't match ambition.

What he wants is to contain the three giants of the Trail Blazers at the same time.

But how is this possible?

I'm afraid I'm not thinking about farting.

If you can lock one of them, or the most likable one, you have succeeded, okay!

You just encircle Wayne every game and let him play Gasol, can he still be 30+10 every game?

Gasol's ability to lead the team alone is obvious to all in Memphis. It has 12 losses and 0 wins in the playoffs, and it has been swept in the first round for three consecutive years. This is a fact.

So you are afraid of a hammer and you are afraid.

Can he beat you to death in one fight, or kill you every fight?
Drawing on Hollins' experience, George Karl will not be so naive.

As long as the pioneer can be locked up alone, it will be considered a success!

And the person in his plan is Pao Er!

If you play two games, you really can't win
Then think of a way on Wayne.

George Karl was never a noble man, never a gentleman.

He only believed in one truth - he could do whatever it takes to win.

Denver miners, come stomp the Rose Garden!
Both sides are still preparing for the battle intensely, waiting for the first round of competition to be over.

The West is very fast. The Lakers and Trail Blazers are 4-0, and the Nuggets and Spurs are 4-1.

The first round of this year's playoffs was swept, which made Deron Williams very indignant.

He averaged 20+10 per game.

But the Jazz had no power to fight back, and, after the opponent had responded to the pick-and-roll, the old Sloan still did not agree with Deron's free play.

Well, an old man like Sloan has the same problem as Carlisle, that is, he likes to control every round.

After Delong grew up, he had his own ideas and had a strong desire to express himself.

He hopes to show his talents to the fullest like Kobe, Iverson, and Wade, and wants to buckle if he disagrees.

It's like when Delong came up to play against China in the 08 Olympic Games and wanted to buckle Chairman Yao.

In the words of fans in the future, the style of play is gradually becoming turtles.

But Sloan did not allow him to do so. First, this style of play hurts his body.Second, it is not efficient.

He just hoped that Deron would be a steady and cold-blooded killer, who would occasionally draw out his sword to kill people, mainly with simple pick-and-rolls.

Deron was still willing to listen to Sloan before, but this loss in the playoffs may completely activate his rebellious soul.

In the East, the Pacers have also passed the first round and are about to face the 65-win Cavaliers led by Moose.

Today, the Pacers are already an out-and-out strong team in the East.

The Green Kai and the Magic will also stage a peak duel in advance in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Who will be the opponent in the finals depends on these two rounds of the series.

On Youth Day on May 5th, the Western Conference semifinals officially kicked off.

Before the game started today, Angua was almost pissed off.

Because almost everyone is discussing his 18-for-3 in the last game of the regular season.

Guagua was speechless, this matter cannot be passed, right! ?
Isn't it just a hip-pull game, as for it?

Besides, I have already eliminated the Mavericks 4-1, does it matter what the last regular season game is like?

Guagua is really close to autism. From August 08 to now, whenever Guagua meets Chinese players, nothing good will happen.

The scene of him being dunked by space in the Olympics is still being pulled out from time to time to flog his corpse.

"Don't pay attention to those voices. The playoffs are a brand new battlefield. You have done a good job so far. The Blazers are certainly very strong, but we will play according to the plan, and we will definitely be able to do it!"

Billups patted Guagua on the shoulder at this time, and then stretched out his fist.

Guagua smiled, feeling relieved immediately, and bumped fists with the flounder.

Billups does have the ability to inspire teammates, the key is that everyone is willing to believe what he says.

Because on the basketball court, Billups will always lead by example.

Your teammates know best how you play on the court.

With Billups around, everyone in the Nuggets is playing very comfortably, plus he has already won a championship, can you not accept it?

After the Nuggets arrived at the Rose Garden, countless fans held up signs at the entrance of the arena, with the numbers "18-3" written on them.

Well, the lethality of these numbers is comparable to 58.

In the past, Angua was going to blow his hair again. In today's game, regardless of whether he made it or not, he had to beat him by more than [-] people!

You have to let it out.

But now, with the fireplace by his side, Angua didn't panic at all.

Don't worry, I will clean you up tonight!

Melon の confidence!

When the players from both sides entered the court to warm up, Wayne found that Billups was watching the gun from time to time.

Wayne felt something was wrong at the time.

Shouldn't you be rushing at me?

Off the court, the coaches are also rarely seen full of gunpowder.

When Carlisle went to shake hands with George Karl, Karl just touched Carlisle's hand in disdain.

Rude Carlisle doesn't think much of juniors like Carlisle in his bones. He thinks that Carlisle is just lucky enough to coach a strong team.

In terms of ability, these young people are still immature.

Carlisle smiled awkwardly before returning to his bench.

Seeing this situation, the old pig with full observation skills waved his hand and brought Lao Ma and Lao Sun together.

"Old pig, what's the matter?"

"Well, this George Karl, I know better than all of you. This guy is a butcher, so this round of the series, be careful.

Also, Dengtai Jones and Kenyon Martin are not good things.

If they dare to make small moves, do him! "

As Sir Ba spoke, he clenched his fists together.

Marbury nodded earnestly. In addition to his legs, he has also improved his boxing skills recently, just to prepare for the playoffs!
The Great Sage is full of small question marks, how did I join this organization?
Why did this kind of thing call me?
And ah, teaching assistant Ba, Ning is a teaching assistant. Tell us this?
Not suitable!

Barkley: Why do you have no beeps in your heart?Everyone is from the zoology department, so don't pretend to be human.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the Western Conference semifinals officially started.

Many people thought that the strength of this game was very different. In fact, Wayne never thought that he could win the Nuggets in three or two moves.

For the Nuggets, the starting five are Flounder, Dengtai Jones, Angua, Kenyon Martin and Waiwai Hilario.

The flounder is the well-deserved brain of the Nuggets, and George Karl's team needs this kind of big brother with a clear mind and a strong locker room.

This was the case with Payton and Cassel under him before.

Between AI and George Karl...that was a bad relationship.

How big is Billups with the Nuggets this season?
First of all, at the age of 33, he can still get a career-high average of 19.5 points per game.

The Nuggets are plus-7.8 with Lupus on the floor.And when he is not on the court, the team's plus-minus value is only +0.9!

To put it bluntly, the Nuggets may be able to do without Anthony, but they must not do without Flounder.

Before the start of the game, Billups was filled with emotion as he watched Wayne, who had grown into a top star in the league.

I think Wayne was just a kid when the Pistons and Pacers fought bloody back then.

That year, the Pacers almost broke up the champion Pistons, making the Pistons worse each year.

Now, the 33-year-old Billups can finally win back!
At the start of the game, the Brazilian Hilario got the ball first.

Billups took possession of the ball and handed it to Angua, who was out of the three-point line.

Facing Tony, Angua was not in a hurry to make a move, but stabilized his rhythm.

Soon, Anthony returned the ball to Billups!
The latter caught and shot, and when everyone thought Angua was the end point, Billups quietly used Kenyon Martin's off-ball screen to throw off the gun.

This season's Kenyon Martin, under the guidance of Flounder, is no longer a player who only relies on his physical fitness to collect statistics.

Screening, rebounding, defense. Martin is willing to do anything.

Unlike before with Camby, Martin is the key to the Nuggets' seventh defense in the league this season!

As soon as Billups made a shot, the ball went directly into the net.

3 to 0, the Nuggets' offense played well and very smoothly!

"Beautiful goal, Billups is very stable, the FMVP carried the team on his shoulders as always." Billup Walton applauded, Billups really played this ball beautifully.

On the CCTV side, Yu Jia said: "Billups is too good!"

Well, in Wayne's previous life, he remembered that when he watched the Nuggets-Lakers series in 2009, the most frequent sentence Yu Jia said was "Billups is too good".

Wayne remembered that voice because he said it the whole game.

Although being the first to score, the Blazers did not panic.

Pao'er took control of the ball again, ready to fight fire with fire.

As a result, Paoer found that it was not Billups who came up to defend him, but Dengtai Jones!

Dengtai Jones played the role of Tony Allen in the Nuggets.

He averaged 5 points per game and made 25% of his three-pointers in the playoffs.

Don't tell me, this offense is as good as Mr. Tony's.

Of course, in the final analysis, it is still better than Mr. Tony.

Tony: What the fuck are you saying again.

As a member of the 03 generation, Dengtai Jones has been a substitute for the first few seasons of his career.

But in Denver, he became a starter.

So you say Iverson can not be angry?

He was replaced by a guy who averaged 5 points per game.

The reason why Jones can get the starting position in the Nuggets is his rough defense.

Wayne also didn't expect Dengtai Jones to be sent to defend Paoluo.

After all, Flounder's defense itself is good, and everyone thought that Dengtai Jones would pull away to double-team Wayne.

Who made it all the same whether Tony defended or not?

Tony: .
However, George Karl did come up with a trick.

He didn't double-team Wayne, he wanted to completely target Paul on this point!

It is impossible to completely prevent the Blazers. Carl's strategy is to kill one and count as one!
Billups' defense is really good, and his defense against Paul should not be bad.

But George Karl prefers that Billups keep his physical fitness on the offensive end and hand over the defensive end directly to Jones.

In this way, Paul will play very hard on both offense and defense.

Under Jones' entanglement, Pao'er was indeed very uncomfortable.

After all, he is a man who can make Kobe even deflated.

Pao'er called for a screen and prepared to break through, but Dengtai Jones' ability to defend against pick-and-rolls is also very good.

In this way, Paoer could only choose to pass the ball in a hurry.

However, because the pass was too hasty, the ball originally intended for the sister-in-law was thrown out of bounds, and the Nuggets got the ball!
"It's beautiful. The Nuggets have done a great job of defending Chris. Paul is not a player who is prone to pass mistakes. This shows how much pressure Jones has put on Cannon!"

Wayne clapped his hands, indicating that everyone can win if they hold on.

Subsequently, the Nuggets attacked again.

This time, it was still Guagua who went out to catch the ball, and Tony concentrated on it.

But for the second time in a row, the ball went to the flounder!
If you thought Billups was just a playmaker, you'd be wrong.

In the last round of the series, the Flounder averaged 21.6 points per game and shot 43.8 percent from three.

This scoring performance is not inferior to Paul.

He belongs to the type who plays dead in the regular season and explodes in the playoffs.

Seeing that Pao'er was blocked by the screen again, Anthony Parker immediately switched defenses.

As soon as the Flounder changed defenses, he was not in a hurry, and stepped back from the three-point line to stabilize the rhythm.

He wants to single out Parker!

Then, he dribbled the ball continuously under his crotch, and suddenly accelerated to prepare for a breakthrough.

Parker hurriedly retreated, but Billups made an emergency stop outside the three-point line.

"brush!"

The three-pointer hit again, and the repeater Yu Jia exclaimed again: "Billups is too good!"

This sentence can be used until the end of the series.

Blazers fans were dumbfounded, what the hell! ?

A 33-year-old veteran hit two three-pointers in a row?

This ball is unreasonable!

Wayne also found himself underestimating the role of Billups, he just hit the ball really smart.

After seeing the defense change, facing the tall Parker, Billups chose to use an unexpected shot to deal with Parker.

Parker is not as flexible as Billups, and it is indeed difficult to react immediately.

And Billups' ability to shoot fancy three-pointers is a must. When the Pistons and Pacers were in the bloody playoffs, Wayne was impressed by his various life-saving chasing three-pointers.

6 to 0, the start of the Nuggets surprised people.

No one expected that this team, which was abused by the Trail Blazers until the last game of the regular season, could make such a strong start.

This is the playoffs!

Billups scored twice in a row and had no assists.

But no one who watched the game felt that Billups was alone.

Maybe this is the difference between him and AI.

AI doesn't care who is in front of it, no matter how many people are waiting for it, just take the ball and it's over.

Billups is very good at examining the situation and making the most correct decision at the most correct time.

Now, the Blazers must fight back.But as soon as Paoer received the bottom line ball, Dengtai Jones directly stuck it.

That's right, right at the start of the game, Pao'er was pressed directly against the audience!
Even the beggars on the streets of Portland know that Paul can't make mistakes because of the full-court pressure, and he can still carry the ball across the court steadily.

Dengtai Jones naturally knew it too.

However, his purpose is not to force Paul to make mistakes, but to consume him and torture him from the first second of the game!

Make him tired, make him sweat, make him ecstatic!
Jones' confrontation is very rough, and under the standards of the playoffs, this will not be called a foul.

In the end, Paoer used his back to push the ball to the safety of the half court.

After that, he hurriedly handed the ball to Wayne.

Facing Kenyon Martin, Wayne made a three-threat feint and suddenly launched a breakthrough!

However, within the three-second zone, Wawai Hilario suddenly jumped in.

The Brazilian at his peak was very fast, and he almost made it to the All-Star this season.

Seeing that the passing route was also blocked, Wayne had no choice but to bite the bullet and make a layup.

Then, what greeted him was a rough hug and throw.

"Dudududu!"

The referee whistled, the Nuggets fouled, and Wayne went to the free throw line.

Wayne gritted his teeth and climbed up, falling on a hard board was painful enough.

Don't tell me, if Wayne didn't have a body of steel, he might really be bluffed by the Nuggets' defensive style.

After standing at the free throw line, Wayne made the first free throw, and then, as always, high-fived his teammates.

When Wayne and Paul clapped hands, he found that Pao'er was already sweating profusely, and his breathing became short of breath!
George Karl's goal has been achieved!

"Are you okay?" Wayne asked.

"Totally O**K." Pao'er nodded.

At this moment, Wayne suddenly remembered.
In the original history, the back line that allowed Paoer to score only 4 points and 6 turnovers and lose 58 points was Billups + Dengtai Jones!
Everyone only remembers that the Nuggets scored 58 points, but many people tend to ignore who made him so miserable.

It is precisely because the Nuggets completely restricted Paul that the leaderless Hornets lost so shamefully.

Well, this round of the series is probably going to be really difficult.

At least for Pao'er, this will be another difficult series.

Wayne sighed and continued to the free throw line.

Today, I can only work hard.
