If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 214
"Beautiful, Nash directly hit a three-pointer, and the Suns' score difference narrowed to less than 5 points."

"Invincible, Yi Jian rushed in and dunked again, but Frye couldn't even pull it."

"It's Yi Jian again, Stoudemire assisted in the foul, and Stoudemire has committed four fouls."

"Stoudemire made a mid-range shot and returned the color. Stoudemire is no longer a pure reckless kid..."

"Nash came back, took advantage of his teammate's position to block the defender, and then made a layup."

"Dudley was very tough and even scored 2+1. The Suns really have hope in this game."

"Oh, Yi Jian is still strong. Seeing that the sun is about to catch up with the score, Yi Jian has a 2+1, and Stoudemire has committed five offenses."

"Durant hit a three-pointer, and the Thunder's lead has increased by more than 5 points, and the game time is almost up. The Thunder is still stronger."

"The sun hasn't given up yet, oh my God, it's a pity that Nash's ball is just a little bit..."

"Richardson missed a three-pointer, and the Suns immediately used foul tactics."

"Nash missed a three-pointer! There is really no time!"

"Stoudemire shot directly from outside the three-point line! Unfortunately, there is no miracle."

"Yi Jian scored the rebound and the Suns stopped playing. Let us congratulate the Thunder. The Thunder defeated the Suns 4:1 in the series and met the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals for the second consecutive year."

After the game, Thunder coach Brooks was also in high spirits. He reached the Western Conference Finals again this season. He received praise in both the regular season and the playoffs, and he is destined to reap honors.

With achievements, even if he has not been in the industry for a long time, he will naturally have the temperament of a famous coach.

He said: "Coach Gentry is very respectful to me, and the Suns are also a successful team. They play very oppressively, even if they fall behind, they will not give up at the last moment. What we do is Persistence, in the end Moment, we found a way to win. Even so, we still have to pay tribute to the opponent."

"We played very patiently. We don't pursue fast offense now, we pursue offensive rhythm and execution. On defense, we emphasize collective defense and rotation defense, and we need to grab rebounds."

"Yi Jian was very dominant. From the beginning of the training camp, he seemed very determined. He played well all year. Throughout the series, he helped us completely control the game."

Yi Jian also issued a declaration of war like the Lakers. They are much stronger than last season.

As the defending champion, the Lakers also attach great importance to the next Western Conference Finals.

"They are not that easy to deal with. If we still have the same mentality as last season, we will definitely lose. We have to pay more attention and play a better game."

In the Lakers' Western Conference semifinals, they played very strongly.

During the regular season, the Lakers' record was not as good as last season due to injuries and other reasons, but they looked completely different in the playoffs.

Core players such as Kobe and Gasol played more aggressively than in the regular season.

Trying their best to kill the Mavericks' Spurs, they had no resistance in front of such a Lakers and were directly swept away.

So when encountering them, Thunder must show stronger fighting power.

"It's time for our revenge." Yi Jian said.

"They are not that great. We have a better record than them, are younger and stronger than them. However, we cannot underestimate them. In the playoffs, every time we advance to the next round, we will encounter stronger opponents. We only have Only by showing a better version of yourself can we move on.”

"I have enough confidence and enough concentration. Because I have been preparing since I lost last year. Let us beat them together and let the strongest team win the highest honor!"

In the East, the Celtics and Magic were the last to meet in the Eastern Conference Finals.

There is no suspense in the Magic group, they swept the Eagles.

Among the four Eastern Conference semifinal teams, only the Eagles are not in this category.

Their breakthroughs in the first round were somewhat affected, and when they encountered the Magic, they were naturally exploded on both offense and defense.

With Howard around, it is very difficult for the Eagles to attack inside, and they can't grab rebounds, which is very disadvantageous.

As for the outside line, just like the Thunder has Yi Jian, there is an excellent help defender inside. The outside defense can actually be much simpler, just don't allow shots, it doesn't matter if you rush in, and there is a help defense inside.

In addition, the outside players of the Eagles are not at the same level. Neither the team boss Joe Johnson nor the sixth man Crawford can guarantee efficiency. The so-called team is not worth mentioning in front of the stars, and failure is also reasonable. middle.

As for the Celtics against the Cavaliers, both teams actually have a chance.

The Celtics' defense can limit James, but the Celtics' offense is actually mediocre.

It can only be said that the Cavaliers' lineup this season is just a gimmick. O'Neal is really not good now. He can still play a few offensively, but the defensive end is really cumbersome.

The Cavaliers' single defense has a better inside defense, and they will not be killed by the aging Big Three.

Mo, the Cavaliers' second-in-command in the regular season, was overwhelmed by Rondo on both ends of the offense and defense. He relied on being an All-Star in the Cavaliers, but he was actually not strong enough.

Two fists are hard to beat four hands, no wonder James doesn't want to stay.

In this series, James played too aggrieved.

Not to mention that the Celtics' Big Three complement each other, they also have a specially organized Rondo.

If the Green Army doesn't look at the star combination, in fact, in the first gear of their team basketball, the five players perform their duties, both offensive and defensive. This is the reason why they are still competitive after the strength of the Big Three began to decline.

However, if there are no stars, their team style of play cannot reach this level, and it will be difficult for them to replicate it in the future.

James was besieged to death by a group of Celtics, and his mentality was out of balance at the end of the game. The efficiency of the big bag was not high, and he quit the playoffs with good data.

A superstar like James should either be paired with a top-level helper who doesn't need the ball like those guard bosses, or he should have a real star to share the pressure with him.

The strength of the star can't be bad, and he can't delegate power at all.

On May 5, the Western Conference finals started.

Starting from Thunder's home court again, Yi Jian felt very good.

The start of the home game is different from the start of the away game. If you can get the home court advantage, you still have to get it.

The Thunder's starting lineup is still relatively stable. As for the role of the second position, it mainly depends on the degree of consumption of Kobe.

Unless the Lakers try to do the same extreme defense as the Suns did, the Thunder's primary role at the [-] will be to defend Kobe.

Of course, it's better to be able to spend on the offensive end, so Matthews will definitely get a good role.

If you can only defend, sometimes the effect is still limited.

The Lakers are also common starters, Kobe, Twin Towers, plus Old Fish and Artest.

The Western Conference Finals has begun amidst all the attention.
