It's the god of death

Chapter 184 186 Crazy Killing!Don't worry boss, everything is up to me. (4k for subscription)
With the release of a large wave of selection results for the major awards of the NBA season, some are happy and some are sad.

Cough cough, and melon turned into a clown.

When Ye Ying's nickname of "King of Double Yolk Eggs" began to spread, the first round of the NBA playoffs in the 03-04 season also ended one after another.

The East and West semifinals are coming!
According to the latest schedule, the Timberwolves will face the defending champion Spurs on May 5!

In the other group of semifinals, the Zijin Lakers will face the Kings on May 5!
The top four in the West, advance collectively!
The following grams?

nonexistent!

Moreover, except for the Timberwolves and the Lakers who swept to advance, the Kings and Spurs both advanced 4-1, and the teams in the upper half have huge advantages.

The same goes for the east side.

The top four teams, the Pacers, Nets, Pistons and Heat, all advanced, and none of them were upset.

Even the only somewhat dangerous Heat ended the battle in only six games, without a tiebreaker.

At this time, the fans said that they hadn't watched it enough!
The battle of Tianwangshan, the tiebreaker, this kind of football watching experience that can change history in one game or even one round will obviously make them feel more exciting.

And now, that moment is clearly near.

The gap with the top eight teams is obviously different. It can be said that there is no underdog who has advanced to the semi-finals!

Not to mention the mighty Zijin Lakers in the West and last season's defending champion Spurs, not to mention the Timberwolves with the best record in the league, not even the Kings can be underestimated by any team!

For example, in the ESPN pre-match poll, 35% of the fans believed that the Kings could beat the mighty Zijin Lakers to advance to the Western Conference Finals!

This is enough to show their recognition of the king's strength.

As for the East, the Pistons and Nets, the two teams that met in the Eastern Conference finals last season, no one dares to underestimate the No. [-] Pacers in the Eastern Conference!

Even the weakest Heat is considered to be able to bring a lot of trouble to the Pacers, the No. [-] in the Eastern Conference.

……

On May 5, under the attention of the whole world, the defending champions from the Holy City stepped into the Minnesota Target Center arena.

The Timberwolves will also face the most powerful challenge of this silver-gray army!
"They're not the championship team they were last year.

They only took fourth in the regular season, and we are the first in the league!

We can definitely defeat them!
Timberwolves must win! "

In the locker room of the home team, Garnett kept cheering with every teammate!
Touching the Spurs in the semifinals is one of the scenarios Garnett least wants to see.

According to his idea, it would be best for the Spurs and the Lakers to fight to the death.

Ahem, the Spurs and Lakers said they thought so too.

But there is no way, this situation has already appeared, what else can we do?
You can only step over the body of the Spurs, and then kick the Lakers' ass hard.

What if the Lakers don't make it to the Western Conference Finals?
That's even better, playing King Garnett expressed more confidence!
……

On the Spurs side, Duncan is also full of confidence.

This is the opponent picked by the boss, he will always trust the boss's judgment!
"Win at least one home game, so that we will have the home court advantage, and we will definitely be the ones who will advance!"

In the away locker room, Popovich and his disciples emphasized the strategic goals of the two away games.

Unlike the Timberwolves who fight desperately every game, Popovich, who is well versed in sustainable development, will not show all his cards at this time.

Although the two sides have played four games in the regular season, and they have lost three games, but he held back and kept his cards!

The record in the regular season is nothing, but the championship is my ultimate goal.

Popovich thought confidently.

……

After the appearance ceremony, the starting lists of both sides were released soon.

Spurs: Parker, Bowen, Turkoglu, Duncan and Nesterovic
Timberwolves: Ye Ying, Madman, Hoiberg, Garnett and Olowokandi
Unlike the regular season, the biggest adjustment for the Spurs is to put Ginobili on the bench.

The better record in the second half of the regular season also proved the wisdom of Popovich's move.

With the wild dance of this demon knife, Ginobili can always help the Spurs expand their lead or narrow the point difference in the rotation stage.

According to statistics, the Spurs' rotation lineup led by Ginobili is the strongest in the NBA, not one of them!

So the commentators before the game were all guessing how the Timberwolves would respond to this game, but there was no clue at all from the starting lineup.

In the middle circle, with a whistle, Olowokandi jumped and beat Duncan to win the first attack opportunity for the Timberwolves.

At this time, I have to praise Olowokandi. The running and jumping ability of this template Chamberlain guy is really quite frightening, and the success rate of jumping the ball is extremely high. Even facing the stone Buddha is not in vain!

The Timberwolves fans in the Target Center arena cheered!

Come on, wolf cubs!
For the Timberwolves, Ye Yinglai performed the first attack.

The Spurs guard a zone defense.

When Ye Ying pressed hard to kill the Spurs penalty area, the defensive player in front of him was suddenly replaced by Duncan, who has won the MVP for the past two years!
On the Timberwolves side, coach Saunders, who is well versed in defense, couldn't help but glance at Popovich from a distance.

Is this going to lock Ye to win with Duncan?
That's so fucking... wise.

To be honest, head coach Sanders has to admit that Duncan has the strength to lock Ye Ying even if he doesn't want to.

This is a man who is excellent in single defense and cooperative defense and has his own defensive system!
Although he has not won the best defensive player, since entering the league, in addition to being selected to the second team of the best defensive team in his rookie season, Duncan has been selected to the first team of the best defensive team for five consecutive years!
Ye Ying felt a pressure rushing towards his face.

This is definitely the strongest defense he has ever faced!
Even if his strength has been maxed out, even if his low-post offense has reached 90, and even if he still has the badge of the gold-level penalty box overlord, Ye Ying still has no guarantee of offensive efficiency.

Call ~
Exhaling slowly, Ye Ying put away his desire to challenge Duncan, and called Olowokandi to step forward to pick and roll.

In fact, Ye Ying was not particularly afraid of Duncan.

However, in order to win the game, it is better to follow the coach's arrangement first.

On the sidelines, assistant coach Mitchell let out a breath slowly.

He was really afraid that Ye Ying's brain just got hot and went to Duncan alone - that would not be a wise choice.

According to his understanding of Popovich's old coin, there must be other means in the future!
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Olowokandi who was coming to the pick-and-roll, and Duncan couldn't help but make minor adjustments, preparing to entangle Ye Ying around the pick-and-roll.

Then, in this flash of lightning, Ye Ying immediately accelerated, passing between Duncan and Nesterovic like a dragon!

On the Spurs side, Turkoglu decisively gave up Hoiberg on the outside and came to make up the defense.

In the words of Popovich's pre-match arrangement, he would rather be shot to death by the Timberwolves and try to hold down Ye Ying first tonight.

Can the hot-blooded rookie who just won the Best Rookie Award suppress his desire to express himself?

Anyway, Popovich doesn't believe it.

The protruding Ye Ying had a chance to score, but he didn't pass the ball as Popovich expected.

I saw Ye Ying leaning on Turkoglu with an elbow as if nothing had happened, and then easily picked the basket and scored.

Ye Ying won blood for the Timberwolves and also opened the prelude to this big battle.

On the sidelines, Popovich's face remained unchanged, and he was already secretly happy.

Hehe, young man, I just can't help expressing myself.

Let's see how long you can last like this!

That's right, Popovich's strategy today is to let Ye Ying score with difficulty, and then alienate other teammates!
Even if Ye Ying's scoring average in the first round has improved a lot, in Popovich's eyes, Ye Ying is still not a great scorer.

He firmly believes that as long as the Timberwolves' overall offense is restrained, they will win tonight!

On the court, Turkoglu, who was elbowed and felt his ribs were about to break, rubbed his chest and returned to defense with his teeth grinning.

Boss, this is putting my safety at risk...

"Student Xiaoye played very tough at the beginning of the game tonight!"

Director Zhang couldn't help boasting first.

"In the playoffs, Xiaoye seems to have ushered in a huge change, and his desire to attack has become unprecedentedly strong!
The key is that the offensive efficiency is still high!

He will definitely have an even better performance tonight! "

On the court, the Spurs launched an offense quickly, and Parker dribbled the ball against Ye Ying's large-scale defense to cross the half court and came to the top of the arc to organize.

Without Ginobili, the Spurs' offense is almost all sorted out by Parker, a small French sports car.

Without much thought, Parker passed the ball to Duncan in the lower post.

During this period, the Spurs' offensive tactics were not that complicated. The first, second, and third choices were to give the ball to Duncan for singles, and then the running tactics.

This tactic seems very untechnical, but the Spurs won last year's championship by relying on it!
Therefore, this is the strongest tactic for the Spurs.

For example, this time, Duncan pushed away Garnett strongly, and then found an opportunity in the confrontation, scoring with a textbook hook.

Mr. Great Basic Skills, well-deserved reputation!
The Timberwolves' second attack was still dominated by Ye Yinglai.

After beckoning Garnett from the outside to come up for the pick-and-roll, Ye Ying made a two-point shot before the free throw line!

Duncan actively helped defend but failed to give enough interference.

Ye Ying's choice of the ball was very stupid, it was just on the edge of Duncan's defense, and he jumped so high...

"Shh-!"

The basketball is firmly in the net.

2:4.

Timberwolves lead again.

On the Spurs side, Parker and Duncan pick and roll.

After Parker attracted the defense, he gave the ball to Duncan. Shifo hit the board at a 45-degree angle against Garnett's defense and hit it again!

Just highlight a stable word.

4 to 4, the two sides tied again.

"Fake!"

Garnett couldn't help exhaling the fragrance.

Originally, Garnett was worried about his MVP selection, but now Duncan is doing this, trying to rub his most proud defense on the ground!
The Timberwolves attacked, and Ye Ying's domineering turnaround jumper missed under Duncan's defense.

Looking back, Duncan, who attracted the double-team, gave the ball to Nesterovic, but Nesterovic's close-range shot was also missed by Garnett's extremely active defensive interference.

Regardless of how lively the two teams played at the beginning, after all, the competition between the two teams was not offense at the beginning, but defense!

At the beginning, he scored two goals, with strength and dribbling.

So, with 3 minutes and 52 seconds left in the first quarter, the Spurs requested a timeout. At this time, the score between the two sides was 8 to 12, and the score was appallingly low!
Popovich glanced at Ginobili who was warming up,
"Manu, from now on, it's up to you."

Ginobili waved his hand casually,

"Don't worry boss, prepare your wine bar.

I will go back! "

Saying goodbye to Popovich, Ginobili turned around with excitement on his face.

It's time to wield my demon sword again!

To be honest, Ginobili was dissatisfied at first when Popovich arranged to play as a substitute in the middle of the season.

I, the Pampas Eagle, are not here for this job!

As a result, after playing a few games, Ginobili found... really fragrant.

There is no need to compete with Parker and Duncan for the ball, and the opponents have become much better. The most important thing is that they can always help the team win.

Is there anything cooler than this?
As a result, Ginobili started running wildly on the road of the sixth man.

Before, when the best sixth man was selected, many media and experts believed that if Ginobili could play more time, he would be the best sixth man this season!

No, Ginobili made a contribution as soon as he came on the court, and a three-pointer was caught off guard and hit directly!

11 is better than 12!

The two sides almost returned to the same starting line in an instant!
After the goal, Ginobili patted his chest and pointed to Popovich.

It seems to say,

"Don't worry boss, everything is up to me."

Not far away, Parker looked envious.

When will I be able to do whatever I want...

The Timberwolves attacked, and Ye Ying sat in the Spurs' penalty area as if he had dropped the pass button.

The only difference is that Duncan was there before, but now...

With a fake move of shaking his shoulders, Ye Ying broke through his eyes and entered the penalty area!

Spurs backup center Kevin Willis immediately slid over to help defend!
Although not as good as Duncan's supplementary defense, Willis, who was highly concentrated, still stood on Ye Ying's route with his hands raised high.

The restricted area of ​​the Silver Gray Legion is not where you come whenever you want!
Seeing that Ye Ying was about to bump into Willis with fierce eyes, Ye Ying didn't slow down in the blink of an eye. Instead, he made a fake move of turning around and breaking through, then turned around and shot domineeringly.

"Shh-!"

The basketball hits the basket again!
Ye Ying used his score to open the gap again!

11 is better than 14!

"Ye's performance tonight was too strong!
He played a very good performance on the offensive end and defensive end! "

On the sidelines, Popovich didn't take Ye Ying's score seriously, because Ye Ying's scoring efficiency in the first half of the quarter was not high.

However, there was still a little turbulence in his heart. This kid Ye Ying was so ruthless, he couldn't help but think of Peter Pan, who had caused him many problems.

Popovich is not afraid of well-behaved players. What he fears most is this kind of ruthless player-because such players are difficult to master and it is easy to make some unplanned things.

Looking back, Ginobili's serpentine breakthrough entered the penalty area and scored!
The demon sword that was swung crazily has the ability to take the head of a general from it.

Parker, with an envious expression on his face again.

Another day of envying Manu...

Popovich smiled again.

Maybe Ye Ying will be fierce tonight, but he believes that Ginobili's scoring explosive power will definitely surpass Ye Ying.

The Timberwolves attacked in the frontcourt, and Ye Ying didn't need a pick-and-roll, and directly used Jiaolong to break through and enter the Spurs' penalty area, which then caused Willis' supplementary foul.

Home whistle + superstar whistle + research on free throw techniques, Ye Ying's foul-making ability has been on the rise recently.

Amidst the cheers of the audience, Ye Ying made two free throws!

Ye Ying took a look at Ginobili when he retreated, is it a demon sword?
Let me watch you tonight!

……

　I feel that the 2k update is not very interesting, and I will try to release the 4-in-[-] [-]k together in the future.
