NBA: Two hands can’t carry championship rings

The league's playoffs are fiercely underway, and fans are cheering for their favorite teams online, discussing and swearing at each other, and then blacking out the stars of the opposing teams.

Haters can always find black spots on teams and players, and gray and red can also become black spots in their mouths. Even as strong as Jordan, the god of basketball, haters can find a lot of black spots to blacken him.

Of course, if you want to be blackened, you must first have a certain popularity and be worthy of being blackened.

The entire Warriors team, including the starting five and head coach Nelson, are being blackened.

Nelson is a coach who can only play in the regular season.

Kidd's scoring ability is not good at all. His record of reaching the finals twice is just because he was lucky to be in the East, and it was still because of his teammates.

Captain Jackson can only shoot now, his defense is dirty, his character is corrupt, he beats the audience, and he looks fierce. At first glance, he is a good person.

Harrington is a scum who can only shoot three-pointers.

Biedrins is the worst blackened, a soft egg, a data brush, can't fight hard battles, and his true colors are exposed in the playoffs, etc.

Yue Yi was also criticized, saying he was a small undrafted player, a data brusher, had long hair and was a pretty boy who could only play basketball because of the daughter of the Warriors owner, and could only shoot mid-range shots, etc.

However, in China, there are many more people who criticize the Hornets than the Warriors. There are more black posts about the star player Chris Paul alone than the entire Warriors team.

However, mature players simply don't bother to pay attention to such black posts. In 2008, when social media was not yet developed, the players were relatively less harassed in this regard. On

May 1, the decisive battle between the Warriors and the Hornets started at the Smoothie King Center.

After four games, none of the four series of the eight teams in the West ended with a score of 4:0. Except for the top Los Angeles Lakers who got a match point of 3:1, the other three teams were all 2:2.

Even the Rockets, who lost Yao Ming, tied with their old enemy the Jazz 2:2, which shows how fierce the battle in the West is.

After the game started, the Hornets resolutely attacked the Warriors' inside line.

This is the case in a round of playoff series. The team tries to maximize its own advantages and to attack the opponent's weaknesses.

In the fourth game between the two teams, the Warriors could not grab the Hornets' rebounds in the paint, and their defense could not defend against David West.

So after the start of this game, Paul passed the ball to West again and again.

This will test the Warriors coaching staff's tactical response and the players' on-the-spot performance on the court.

No team is perfect, and superstars have bad touches.

The Hornets' shooting guards have average scoring ability. The response tactics arranged by old Nelson are to arrange Yue Yi to double-team West immediately after West receives the ball, without giving him a chance to adjust.

This move has a certain effect. West did not play very smoothly at the beginning and could not get what he wanted like in the last game.

Boxing champion Chandler, who grabbed 8 frontcourt rebounds in the game, would rush to grab the frontcourt rebounds as soon as his teammates shot. He tasted too much sweetness in the last game.

But in this game, all Warriors players are rebounders, and they are all preparing to grab rebounds.

Biedrins' main task in this game was not to grab the rebound directly, and he couldn't grab it as fast as Chandler.

What he had to do was to hold Chandler back and prevent him from rushing and jumping.

Before the triple-double king"Divine Turtle" Westbrook came out of nowhere, Kidd was the best rebounding guard in the league.

The most important thing for a guard who can grab rebounds is to judge the landing point of the rebound.

In addition, Kidd himself is a tall point guard, and his rebounding ability is very strong.

The Hornets' strategy of playing inside did not work in this game, and Chandler's running, jumping, and rushing did not play to his advantage.

But the Ren and Du meridians that the Hornets' Paul opened up in the last game continued in this game. He scored points by shooting inside and outside, and he could also send a wonderful pass to Peja outside the three-point line.

Warriors captain Jackson stood out in this crucial game. After receiving the ball, he shot very steadily and decisively. Yue Yi also cooperated with the team's running position. If there was a little gap, he would shoot decisively. If there was no chance, he would break through inside to cause damage or pass the ball.

The scores of the two teams went up and down, and they were evenly matched.

The game was very tense. In the fourth quarter, the score on the field was 73:72, and the Warriors led by one point.

The main players fought hard, and the defense was very strong. The physical strength was consumed very quickly. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, half of the rotation substitutes were on the field.

At this time, the situation on the field suddenly changed, and the evenly matched situation was broken.

A surprise soldier stood up from the Hornets' bench lineup, Rasul Butler.

He shot inside and outside, and scored seven points in a row. The Warriors quickly called a timeout.

After the timeout, Captain Jackson defended him personally.

But after getting the feel, the captain couldn't limit him.

Rasul Butler scored five points in a row, and Paul added a small floater, and the score on the field was pulled down by 8 points.

The rhythm of this game was not fast. The Hornets did not play against the Warriors at all. As long as they had the ball, they would slow down.

These 8 points are not easy to catch up.

With this advantage, the Hornets were not impatient, and slowly grinded the Warriors on the offensive end and bit the Warriors on the defensive end.

Harrington is not good at defending West's strong point. This problem has always existed. Yue Yi's double-teaming helped to limit it to a certain extent.

But now Butler is in such a good mood and still stays on the court. Old Nelson dare not let him go easily.

The key is that the Hornets have Peja who shoots three-pointers on the front line, and Jackson has to focus on him.

If you can't effectively defend the Hornets, you can only make a fuss on the offensive end, but Harrington was consumed too much energy by West on the defensive end, which made his offensive feel not good.

The Warriors scored intermittently and couldn't pull back the score difference.

In the last two or three minutes, the Warriors played fast and decisively outside the three-point line, but the three-point shooting rate was very low. They shot six times and only made two.

The Hornets also scored 6 points in their several offensive rounds.

The final whistle sounded, and the Warriors recovered. 99:93, the Warriors lost the decisive battle.

In the series, whoever can win the decisive battle will have a great chance of advancing to the next round.

The Hornets defended their home court and showed their strength to all the Western Conference teams.

After winning the match point, the Hornets seemed to say: We are the second-ranked team, you lower-ranked teams, please get it right. After the game, the Warriors' locker room was very dull. After one game after another, they went from leading at the beginning of the series to being on the verge of elimination.

The most important thing is that after five games, the two teams know each other well. Old Nelson has seen it clearly in his heart. From the perspective of comprehensive strength, the Warriors are not as good as the Hornets.

Looking at the comparison of the five positions on the field, only the shooting guard has a slight advantage, but the Warriors' starter at this position is only a rookie.

Nelson is already thinking about what methods to use in the next game.
