From today on is the king

Chapter 1440 1439. Heat No. [-] Scholar, Perfect Future Plan (ask for a monthly ticket)

Two consecutive rounds with tie-breaks...

David Stern is a bit annoying.

However, Oden is about to enter the NBA, and David Stern seems to have seen a super big man who can break the current pattern of centers.

Yao Ming is great now, yes, he is an important part of the NBA's development of the Asian market, but among the current NBA centers, there are too few centers who can compete with Yao Ming.

Especially Yao Ming is in the Lakers. In Los Angeles, the Lakers will not have a bad record in the next few years. As long as Yao Ming's statistics are reasonable, he can easily win the first and second teams.

It is true that David Stern wants to use Yao Ming to open up the market, but he does not want Yao Ming to have such a dominant position.

Competition is the topic.

The great Oden is the super genius who can break the pattern of centers.

Judging from the performance of Oden's single-handed blowout of Horford and Noah's two top five picks in March Crazy, there is no need to consider that Oden will lose. Oden, who is still a sophomore, already has the strength to become the core center of an NBA team.

So, this season, those bad teams are quite crazy. Five teams won 60+ games, which is inseparable from the efforts of these bad teams.

The lowest ranking of regular season records this season, that is, the ranking of the probability of winning the lottery: 1. Celtics, 2. Hornets, 3. Timberwolves, 4. Heat, 5. Bucks, 6. Grizzlies, 7.76ers, 8. Pacers, 9. Knicks, 10. Bobcats, 11. Kings, 12. Blazers, 13. Supersonics, 14. Clippers.

……

Liu Mang came to Chicago again, he suddenly fell in love with this city...

Coming here and playing better than at home, he also felt like hell.

But in the tiebreaker, mentality is very important and cannot be collapsed.

There was no game on the 16th, the tie-break between the Eagles and the Bulls was on the 18th, and the 17th was the sixth game of the semifinals of the other two divisions, but the Eagles still came to Chicago at noon on the second day after being dragged into the tie-break.

The Eagles are now focusing on studying the opponent's offense, and they have already thought about it. It is enough to prevent the opponent to death, and the offense will be handed over to Mitaka.

At [-]:[-] p.m., the nationally televised lottery takes place at Madison Square Garden.

The 15th to 30th picks will be played directly on the big screen, and the second-round picks will be ranked according to their record, and the record will be ranked at the bottom.

"Draw the lottery"!

In a sealed transparent box, 14 small balls are marked with numbers 1 to 14. Each time 4 small balls are randomly rolled out, there will be a total of 1001 permutations and combinations. In the 1001st case, after 11, 12, 13, and 14 combinations are eliminated, there are 1000 possibilities left. The ranking of the pick, there is another situation that the team with a lower probability than this team gets the top three picks, then the team's pick will be postponed.

And the Clippers, which have only a 30% chance of winning the No. [-] lottery and a [-]% chance of getting the top three picks, have only [-] combinations that can get the top three picks...

There is no doubt that this probability is too low. After the Clippers drew a lottery, their team name appeared on the 14th overall position on the huge LED screen.

Clippers out...

In fact, from the 14th-last Clippers to the 8th-last 76ers, the probability of winning the No. [-] lottery is less than [-]%, and the probability of the top three picks is less than [-]%.

The draft lottery does not start with the high probability, but starts with the low probability. Otherwise, the draft lottery is meaningless, and it is impossible for the Rockets to get Yao Ming.

It is precisely because of this that the annual draft lottery has a high degree of attention. What if any team has a low probability of getting the top three picks.

However, this year until the seventh-to-last Pacers draw, there was no upset.

When it came time for the Grizzlies to draw the lottery, the surprise came...

The Grizzlies took away the first lottery award with a probability of 15.00% point six, and got the third pick in the 2007 draft.

The Bucks didn't win the lottery. They had the fifth-lowest record, but they dropped one spot to sixth.

And then...a situation arose that made the Celtics management want to cry...

With a probability of 13.00%, the Heat won the No. 2007 pick in the [-] draft...

After the Timberwolves failed to get the final No. [-] pick and fell to the fifth pick in despair, the Hornets, the second-to-last in the league, just matched their ranking and got the No. [-] pick.

And the Celtics... fell to the fourth pick!

After the lottery, seeing the draft situation, people felt that the Celtics were really unlucky!
But...the Celtics are just so unlucky...

In the original time and space, they were ranked last in the Eastern Conference this season and second in the league. They had a 60.00% chance of getting the top three picks, a 19.00% chance of getting the No. order...

This time... the record is the bottom one, that is, 100% is the top four picks. It just so happens that they got the fourth pick... and the probability of them falling out of the top three picks is less than [-]%...

Heat No. [-] pick, Hornets No. [-], Grizzlies No. [-], Celtics No. [-]...

Seeing the final result, Liu Mang got excited!

The Heat won the No. [-] pick and the Hornets won the No. [-] pick, which is very important to Liu Mang's future opportunities!

Fortunately, San Niu did not come to Chicago with Liu Mang this time, and there was no one else in Liu Mang's room. The draft lottery... a lot of people paid attention, but the Eagles players didn't pay attention at all. They didn't have a single draft pick this summer.

So Liu Mang cheered excitedly when the Heat won the No. [-] pick, but no one noticed.

Liu Mang's excitement felt like the Eagles won the No. [-] pick.

However, Liu Mang's excitement is understandable. The second round seems to have been out of control. From the beginning to the present, he has been out of control, and finally something goes well.

In Liu Mang's opinion, playing basketball is like playing chess. You can't just look in front of your eyes and plan a few more steps behind, which will be of great help to win the big game of NBA!

……

……

"Ace, you seem very happy today?" McGrady asked Liu Mang, who was humming and exercising his waist.

"Of course, we are going to win the series and step into the Eastern Conference finals tomorrow. Of course we are happy." Liu Mang smiled, and the real reason can't be said.

"Ace, you are really too confident, but you are so confident, so I am more confident." McGrady smiled wryly and shook his head.

No matter how long he has partnered with Liu Mang, McGrady will be surprised by Liu Mang's self-confidence.

This kind of thing cannot be learned, especially for people like McGrady who do not have a strong desire to compete, "not to compete", from a certain point of view, is also a manifestation of lack of self-confidence.

"Isn't it just going to the Eastern Conference Finals? I play in the Eastern Conference Finals every year. It's nothing, it's very simple." Liu Mang said in a tone of contempt for the Eastern Conference Finals.

McGrady thought of what Liu Mang said when he was worried that he would not be able to pass the first round before playing with Liu Mang for the first time in the playoffs...

Not far away, Grant Hill, who was doing aerobic exercise to relieve muscle fatigue from the past six games, was embarrassed to interrupt when he heard what Liu Mang said. McGrady and Liu Mang had never played in the second round before they partnered, and Grant Hill was the same...

Today is the 17th, the second day of the Eagles' two rest days, and tomorrow they will play the tiebreaker.

In the evening, before the heat of yesterday's draft lottery had dissipated, the sixth game of the two-group series between the Cavaliers and the Magic, and the Lakers and the Suns began.

41 points, 16 rebounds, 15 assists.

These three data are the key to the Cavaliers' victory today.

Peja scored 41 points and made 8 three-pointers, setting a new career playoff scoring record.

Although Chandler scored only 4 points, he had 16 rebounds.

James had 21 points and 6 rebounds, which was not outstanding, but 15 assists allowed the Cavaliers' outside shooters to take off.

靠着联盟的“保送”度过被4比1淘汰的危机，将大比分打成2比3后，来到客场的骑士队115比101力克士气被伤到了的魔术队，将大比分扳平了！

In this game, the Magic did not dare to make too many moves on the defensive end. The sense of crisis in the last game was too strong.

Although Raheem and Howard both scored 20+10, they could not compete with the connection between James and Peja.

The Cavaliers will return to Cleveland to play the Game [-] with the Magic after a day off.

For the Lakers and the Suns, the two-day rest time is very important for the Lakers. After winning the Tianwangshan battle with Barnes' tip-up lore, the morale of the Lakers was greatly boosted, while the morale of the Suns was obviously frustrated.

In Game [-], the Suns collapsed.

109 to 87, the Lakers defeated the Suns away by 22 points and advanced with a big score of 4 to 2. They will join the Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals.

……

The two teams in the west have come out. Since the two series in the east will be tie-breakers, the schedule has been confirmed. The schedule for the East-West finals will also be announced on May 5, the morning of the tie-break between the Eagles and the Bulls.

Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals will start on May 20.

In the Eastern Conference finals, the winner between the Eagles and Bulls tonight will meet with the Cavaliers and Magic on May 5, who will decide the outcome on the 21th.

Liu Mang also watched the two games last night. The Suns still failed to make a big deal, and the Cavaliers have now become the target of public criticism and the focus of public opinion.

If the Cavaliers' opponent is the Eagles, the league may still favor the Cavaliers, but it will not be so exaggerated.

In order to support James, he has done everything he can.

If the Eagles and the Cavaliers play in the second round, the league will be much less biased. If Liu Mang has a chance to win four consecutive championships and loses because of the whistle, he will definitely offend many Chinese fans.

But with the Magic ... the league wouldn't mind making Raheem a stepping stone to James' first Finals run.

And 23VS24 is too topical.

However, Liu Wei is not surprised by this matter. James is already in the fourth grade. If he has never made it to the Eastern Conference Finals, the league's all-time favorite will be slapped in the face.

The league is very experienced in doing this kind of thing. It only needs to have a regular-season whistle when James is attacking, and nothing else needs to be done. In this way, it is difficult for the Magic to have a chance to win.

Liu Wei estimates that the Cavaliers have already been "walked" to the Eastern Conference finals, although it is a bit regrettable that they cannot play against Raheem in the Eastern Conference finals...

But Liu Mang still has to take care of himself first...

The tiebreaker is here!
