The NBA started with helping Iverson win the championship

Chapter 247 Kobe's Era Has Gone
A few days later, the Knicks eventually lost.

They lost to their opponents with a score of 2:4 and successfully achieved the achievement of the first round.

Compared with being swept 4:0 under normal circumstances, it is actually not easy to lose like this now.

In this round of the series, Stoudemire directly wiped out his worth.

Facts have proved that after he left Nash, his combat power in this tough battle was really overestimated.

The hit rate of only 35% is simply eye-catching.

If it were Yao Ming, no matter how the opponent targeted him, he would not be able to hit such a hit rate.

Billups' performance was not very impressive, and his shooting percentage was just in the early [-]s.

The only one who performed normally was Gua Ge.

However, as the boss of the Knicks, Gua must still be responsible for the loss.

All of a sudden, fans from all over New York and even the world began to verbally criticize Gua Ge, as if Gua Ge had done something outrageous.

Even Gua Ge's old background in the Nuggets was revealed.

Brother Gua is also wronged, his teammates played like that, what can he do?
At the press conference, Gua Ge said the classic of the classics.

"I have partnered with more than 100 players, and every time I lose, I am the one who is blamed."

This is indeed desolate to hear.

If you really want to blame, you can only blame Brother Gua for being unlucky.

The second round of the playoffs started, and the Pistons faced the Eagles in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

The Eagles can enter the playoffs every year, but they don't have a sense of presence every year.

At the beginning of the season, their lineup was actually very luxurious.

Singles Joe, Josh Smith, Horford, Bibby, and Jeff Teague and Ke 6 on the bench.

As a result, after the All-Star break, they sold Bibby to the Wizards, and then the Wizards cut him and sent him to the Heat.

The player the Eagles acquired from the Wizards was former Bulls outsider Kirk Hinrich.

This operation is actually quite cost-effective. On the one hand, they can strengthen the outside line, and on the other hand, they can help Jeff Teague.

But the disadvantages are not without, that is, the team's starting lineup defense is too bad.

For this kind of poor defensive team, Li Xun will not take it to heart at all.

The more it is in this playoffs, the more important it is to highlight the importance of defense.

A team without defense is destined to be unable to go in the long run.

The reason why the Eagles can win against the Knicks is because the Knicks are not playing well. Even if the Knicks are playing normally, the Eagles may only face defeat.

The Eastern Conference semifinals started. In the first game, the Eagles almost made the "arrogant" Li Xun pay the price.

Li Xun really didn't pay attention to the Eagles. As a result, Clifford, who was on the Eagles' bench in this game, directly showed his power.

Ke 6 is good at playing 3+1, which is fully reflected in this game.

Fortunately, in the first half, the Pistons kept playing against the Eagles.

Especially Horford was taught a bad lesson by Yao Ming.

The difference between Horford and Howard is one letter. Both of them are short centers. Howard is more blue-collar, while Horford is more offensive.

In order to prevent Yao Ming from being injured, after the Pistons had a 17-point advantage in the first half, Yao Ming was put on the bench and was not allowed to play.

结果下半场李勋命中率有点爆冷，克6那边接连狂打3+1，竟然将原本17分的分差拉回到了仅仅只剩下3分。

Recovering the 14-point difference in one quarter, the Eagles showed great resilience.

As a last resort, Li Xun could only give up offense and began to turn to defense and rebounding.

This is the scary thing about Li Xun.

There is no doubt that all players have upsets.

Even Jordan has crazy games in his career, and it's not just one or two games.

Once many players feel upset, they are actually useless on the court.

Like Ray Allen.

He is so.

The defense is not good, especially now that he is older, and the defense has declined sharply.

Don't even think about rebounding.

The only function may be to attract the opponent's defensive attention.

But Li Xun is different. Even if he feels upset, he can still help the team dominate the game on the defensive and rebounding ends.

In the end, the Pistons won the game without any risk.

In the next three games, the Eagles will not be so lucky. The Pistons are ready to take the Eagles away without giving the Eagles any chance.

With the end of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the results of the annual regular season honor awards are hot.

Because Li Xun won the Super Grand Slam last season, he doesn't really care about regular season honors this season.

But whether he doesn't care or not, Li Xun still has to know the result.

Li Xun couldn't stop the smile on his face as he watched the awarding results with the generals of the Pistons.

Last season, he topped the list with four of the top five statistics.

And this season, Li Xun has reached the top of all five major statistics, and has truly achieved the title of the almighty king.

常规赛场均28.1分16.3篮板11.7助攻4.3盖帽3.5抢断。

The blocked shots and steals data have pulled No.2 a lot, but the gap between No.2 and No.[-] is not too big in terms of scoring, rebounds and assists.

This is also something that can't be helped. It is impossible for Li Xun to put the data on himself in every game.

If this is the case, he will probably become a polished commander soon.

Now Li Xun has found a delicate balance between the individual and the team, which can not only make his own data very dazzling, but also allow his teammates to get a good data.

Dumars failed to get the Manager of the Year this time, because the honor was taken away by the Heat.

With the Heat's operation this year, James and Boozer almost won for nothing, and this award should indeed belong to them.

The best head coach of the year is still reelected by Tang Shuai.

Tang Shuai never imagined that in his long coaching career, he never got a COY.

As a result, I have been in the Pistons for two years and won two in a row.

This year's best sixth man is Odom, and the most improved player is taken by Love.

There is nothing wrong with these two honors, they are well deserved.

It was purely an accident that Li Xun got the Most Improved Player last season.

This season, Li Xun has not improved much in terms of statistics, while Love has taken off directly, averaging 20.2 points and 15.2 rebounds per game, which is simply a small bug.

You must know that his rebounds can't be picked up casually. Among them, he averaged 4.5 offensive rebounds per game, which is the highest in the entire league except Li Xun.

This year's rookie of the year was taken by Griffin, which made Cousins ​​and Baibian, two rookies in the Pistons, very dissatisfied.

"This guy is obviously a rookie in the 09 class, why should he compare with our 10th class?"

"Damn it, the best rookie should belong to Hassan."

Cousins ​​looked upset.

Bai Bian blushed at his words, "Ahem, DeMarcus, in fact, the best rookie should belong to you, but my data can't get the best rookie."

"No, your performance in the second half of the season is definitely worthy of being the best rookie."

"DeMarcus, you are much better than me, I think you are more qualified."

The two insider rookies of the Pistons directly started a business bragging, and everyone around them rolled their eyes.

"Okay, stop arguing."

"Neither of you can get the best rookie. Even if Griffin doesn't get it, Wall will definitely get it."

Li Xun waved his hand to calm the two guys down.

In the next regular season defensive honor, Li Xun won the DPOY again.

This year's DPOY, Li Xun really deserves his name. No one is more qualified to win this award than Li Xun.

The next best defensive team, Li Xun was selected for a while.

This is the third consecutive year that Li Xun has been selected to the All-Defensive Team, and he has been selected to the Defensive Team for two consecutive years.

Judging from the current posture, at least in the next ten years, Li Xun will be a frequent visitor to the defensive team.

In the next best team, Li Xun was selected as a striker.

Yao Ming was not selected for the first team this year, so Howard snatched it.

However, Howard has indeed deserved his name this year, because Yao Ming played too little time and few games, and his statistics are not as good as Howard's.

Counting the selection to the second team this time, Yao Ming has been selected to the best team seven times in his entire career, which is undoubtedly a great achievement.

It is not a surprise that Yao Ming was selected for the second team, everything was expected.

The real surprise was Curry.

He was also selected as a second-team guard this year.

This was a bit unexpected for Li Xun. A second-year freshman was actually selected for the second team. This is really unbelievable.

But thinking about Rose, who is in the third grade, he has scored for a while this year, and it doesn't seem so unimaginable.

Li Xun remembers that under normal circumstances, this year's second-team guards are Westbrook and Wade.

For a while it was Kobe and Rose.

There must be no problem with this selection for a while, but Wade and Westbrook in the second team made many fans dissatisfied.

Mainly because Paul was put in the third team.

Can Westbrook be better than Paul now?I am afraid that most fans will give a negative answer.

Now that Curry replaced Westbrook and entered the second team, it did not cause dissatisfaction among the fans.

The main reason is that Curry's data is indeed good enough, averaging 21 points per game and 7 assists per game.

The main reason is that the three-point shooting rate is top-notch, reaching an astonishing 47%!

Among all players in the league who averaged more than five three-pointers per game, Li Xun and Curry topped the list in shooting percentage.

Curry is 47.1%, and Li Xun is 47.7%!

When a team has such two top three-pointers in history, it is not so difficult for the team to win.

It is worth mentioning that Ray Allen averaged 49.8% of his three-pointers per game this year. Unfortunately, he is a substitute and only averaged 3.5 three-pointers per game.

It is equivalent to saying that the three best three-pointers in the league are all in the Pistons. How can other teams play?
It is not unreasonable for the Pistons to have a 76-game winning streak.

The next regular season MVP, Li Xun was re-elected.

Everything went as expected, and Li Xun successfully won all the gold-worthy honors in the regular season.

Next, as long as he can lead his team to win the championship and win another FMVP, this year's Li Xun will have another Grand Slam.

In his three-year career, he has entered the finals three times and won two championships. Li Xun's historical status can at least be raised a bit.

The regular season awards are over, and Li Xun has to wait patiently for the winner between Lukai and the Heat.

As a result, Lukai didn't keep Li Xun waiting long. They only won one game in this round of the series and were eliminated by the Heat 4:1.

The fight in the east was in full swing, but there was a shocking upset in the west.

As Li Xun remembers, the Lakers were swept by the Mavericks.

There is no room for parry at all. With a neat lineup, the Mavericks beat the Lakers to pieces.

On the one hand, the Lakers played mediocre.

What is said here is generally not to say that the Lakers played abnormally, but that they really played at a relatively normal level.

On the other hand, the Mavericks broke out in an all-round way.

In this round of the series, Nuo Tianwang is as accurate as a ghost, no matter how he votes.

The key is Nuo Tianwang's shot. No one else can target the defense. The only player who can defend Nuo Tianwang is himself.

Coupled with the desperate efforts of all the role players, this Mavericks showed a terrifying combat power that no one had thought of.

尤其是G4，喷气机特里这货三分球10投9中，全场打了25分钟一共出手了14次，结果砍下了32分。

With this offensive efficiency, even the gods can't stop it.

It is reasonable to say that even if the Pistons meet, they may have to pinch their noses and admit defeat.

Of course, if it is against the Pistons, it is impossible for Li Xun to allow Terry to play such an offensive efficiency.

The main reason is that Fisher, the veteran of the Lakers, has really become a point guard ATM machine, and anyone can explode on him.

If Lao Yu can explode by himself, that's okay.

But this guy has a scoring efficiency of 8 in 1, and almost didn't kill the Zen master in a rage.

Li Xun sighed.

He knows very well that the era belonging to Kobe has passed.

From now on, it will be difficult for the Lakers to play the same dominance as in the previous two years.

To the divisional semifinals.

The Eastern Heat played against the defending champion Pistons.

In the West, the Mavericks played against the upstart Thunder.

The fans must still pay more attention to the finals in the Eastern Conference. It may seem to them that even if the two teams in the Western Conference reach the finals, they are still giving food to their opponents.

The Thunder's ability to reach the finals this year must have been beyond everyone's expectations.

"Li Xun, do you have the confidence to lead the team to win this round of the Eastern Conference Finals?"

At the pre-match press conference, a reporter got up and asked Li Xun.

This kind of question is just a formality, Li Xun nodded, "Of course I have confidence."

"Then how many games do you think you can end your opponent?"

"Not more than five games."

Li Xun's expression was serious, and he didn't mean to be joking at all.

The reporters on the scene gasped, and they were too confident.

You know, this is the Heat of the Big Three, how dare Li Xun dare to kill the opponent in five games?

In fact, Li Xun is still modest, he has 100% certainty to sweep the Heat.

During the regular season, the Pistons killed the Heat four times, which is a real crushing advantage.

If it is the first time to play the Pistons, the Heat are because the players are not in place.

Then in the next third and fourth games, this reason cannot be used.

The Heat still can't see the slightest hope of winning in front of the Pistons, at least Li Xun thinks so.

The lineups of the two sides have already made it clear that the Heat are definitely not the opponents of the Pistons.

The Pistons' three-point firepower from outside is extremely powerful, which the Heat can't match at all. Whether it's Wade or James, their three-pointers are not good.

The real lethality of these two people is to attack the inside line, and the piston acts on the twin towers of Yao Ming and Li Xun. Why should they rush to the inside line?
