NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 920 Start a war with the Lakers

On May 5, the G3 battle between the Mavericks and the Warriors, the Nuggets and the Jazz started.

At the end of the game, the upset finally exploded, and there were two, the Mavericks were blacked out seven, the Nuggets were blacked out six, two teams that were recognized as strong teams at the beginning of the season were eliminated in the first round at the same time.

As the core of the two teams, the ability of Nowitzki and the Golden Spears to lead the team has been greatly questioned, criticized by the media, and huge pressure is placed on them.

With the end of the first round of the game, the second round of the game is, the East, the Heat vs. the Bulls, the Pistons vs. the Cavaliers, the West is the Lakers vs. the Suns, and the Warriors vs. the Jazz.

On the 4th, the league announced a batch of individual honors.

Li Ba's performance absolutely surpassed everyone. With the Suns' second record in the Western Conference regular season, he won the honor of MVP for the second consecutive year.

Also on this day, the league held a lottery ceremony.

The Spurs are desperately doing poorly this season. Like it, there are several other teams, such as the Sonics, Trail Blazers, Timberwolves, etc., just to fight for the No. [-] pick.

In the end, the Spurs were so lucky that they really got the last record and the first draw.

Popovich and Holt prayed to God and worshiped Buddha very sincerely. Their sincerity moved the heavens and the earth, and they actually won the lottery.

"Greg, we're going to do it again!"

After getting the No. [-] lottery, owner Holt yelled at Popovich excitedly.

Seeing that the Spurs won the No. [-] lottery, Stern frowned. He didn't want to send Oden to the Spurs.

But the fact has already been done, and he has nothing to do.

Next, the Sonics won the No. [-] pick, and the Blazers won the No. [-] lottery.

Everyone knows that the Spurs will only have one choice, and that is Oden.

Losing Duncan and choosing a better and younger Oden than maybe Duncan, many people have to lament that the Spurs are too lucky.

But there are also some teams that are not envious. These teams are the Grizzlies, Mavericks, and Heat.

In the last offseason, some teams chose to strengthen, and some teams chose to play poorly. Each has a different fate.

A strengthened team, they have reaped huge benefits from the soaring ball market, which is no worse than selecting Oden.

As for the poor team, which lost the market, relying on this year's draft, it may not be able to successfully rebuild, even if it is rebuilt, it may not be able to regain the lost market.

On May 5, the second round of the playoffs started.

On this day, the Western Jazz defeated the Warriors, and the Eastern Cavaliers defeated the Pistons.

On the 8th, the second round of the Suns and the Lakers, the Heat and the Bulls started.

On the 7th, Li Ba arrived in Los Angeles with the team and chatted with Dayao Dazhi.

As big as it was yesterday, the Mavericks were eliminated. He has already booked a plane ticket and will return home tomorrow.
"Is your wife okay?" Dayao asked.

"It can be maintained for a while. It depends on the situation. If it is not good, I have already made plans to take a year off next season and give you a chance to get a ring." Li Ba said.

"So serious?" Dayao and the others asked in surprise.

"I haven't reached that level yet, but am I worried? The doctor told me about this disease. I have to catch up early. I can't delay my wife's illness for the sake of the competition, can I? She followed me and is now pregnant with me." Child, can I ignore her? Then am I still human?" Li Ba said.

"That's for sure, this disease... if it's serious, but..." Dayao didn't say anything further.

"Where is Alian doing his trial training now?" Dazhi asked, breaking the subject.

"A pioneer." Li Ba said.

"The Blazers are the No. [-] lottery. Is there any hope for Allen?" Bus asked.

"I don't have much hope. The Celtics are fifth. I hope they pick Allen." Li Ba said.

"The Celtics have Pierce, which doesn't belong to the reconstruction. Allen can play at the [-]th position, and the starting lineup is no problem. It is indeed more suitable than those reconstructions." Dayao nodded.

On the evening of the 8rd, the game began.

Before the game, the two sides announced the starting lineup.

Suns: Li Ba, Marion, Battier, Ginobili, Rondo.

Lakers: Dayao, Duncan, Artest, Kobe, Parker.

In the TNT live broadcast, Barkley explained excitedly: "This is recognized by all the media. When it comes to the finals, whoever wins will have an [-]% chance of winning the championship."

"Now our ratings have exceeded 7000 million, and I believe it will soon exceed [-] million." Kenny Smith laughed.

"After the two teams competed in the regular season, both sides believe that they have found the most suitable tactics. I think there will be no temptation in the G1 game, just a direct reckless fight." Barkley said.

"The Lakers' offensive tactic is believed to be to use Yao to hold the Hammer in the low post, and then Duncan and Kobe will attack from the other wing. The Suns' offensive tactic should be to pull away and let the Hammer single out Yao in the low post. If the Lakers If you defend against the basket, you can score the ball." Kenny Smith said.

In the CCTV live broadcast seat, Zhang Lili was a little depressed and said: "I hope the Suns can win this series, and then win the championship. The chances of defending the dynasty are not easy. Hold on to the hammer!"

"It's not that the Suns have never won the Lakers. They will definitely win this series!" Yu Jia shouted.

The two learned about Li Ba's family situation from Dayao, so they couldn't talk about it, and they couldn't ask Li Ba when interviewing him. They could only cheer for Li Ba in this way.

But what they said dissatisfied many Dayao fans in China, and their attitude was too biased, right?The Hammers have already defended their titles, and Dayao hasn't played in the finals yet.

Game start.

Li Ba stood in front of the bench, looked around at his teammates, and said in a deep voice, "We have fought for a season, what do we want?"

"Dynasty! Dynasty! Dynasty..."

On the Suns bench, passionate shouts sounded.

"Dynasty! Dynasty! Dynasty..."

The shouting immediately infected nearly [-] Suns fans in the away game, and they stood up one after another, raising their arms and shouting together.

With the jump ball, Li Ba beat Dayao, and the Suns attacked.

The others pulled away, and Li Ba was in a low position on the left wing.

Rondo crossed the frontcourt, under Parker's pressure, first gave the ball to Battier outside the left-wing three-point line, and then quickly cut the paint area and took Parker away.

Battier took the ball, passed it in without waiting for Artest to come up, and then quickly ran to the left corner.

Li Ba catches the ball with one hand. At this time, Artest let go of Battier and came to double-team him. He immediately passed Battier back.

Battier caught the ball in the left corner, took a long shot before shooting, and shot through the Lakers' basket with a swipe.

3:0, the Suns lead away.

Barkley laughed twice, and then shouted: "This is a typical triangle offense! The Suns played a triangle offense in front of Staples and Phil. It is really courageous."

Kenny Smith said: "I think the Suns' triangle offense has more advantages than playing one inside and four outside."
