Starting from the last bus in the NBA

Chapter 186 Kobe's Dissatisfaction

The series ended and the team successfully advanced to the Western Conference semifinals.

In any case, the team's goal was finally accomplished, and the stretched string was finally loosened.

I haven't had such a peaceful sleep in a long time.

Whether it is playing on the field or dealing with reporters, it has never been an easy task.

Tomorrow, the East and West semifinals will start.

The Sonics and the Lakers will not have much rest time because they played the fifth game.

Tomorrow, they will face the Lakers.

So there is not much rest time at all, and being able to take half a day off is already a blessing from the head coach.

After lunch, the team will head to Los Angeles, and there will be a training session to adapt to the venue in the evening.

Tomorrow night, at the Staples Center, the showdown begins.

"I rely on it, no!"

Seeing the newspaper in his hand, Wang Hao was speechless. What is this?

Gerani noticed Wang Hao's situation and said, "Wang, what's the matter, are you surprised by the media's evaluation!"

Well, after this round of the series, the media's evaluation of Wang Hao is still very high.

Of course, all this stems from his wonderful performance.

However, what made Wang Hao feel depressed was another matter, Duncan's injury report.

The meniscus of the left leg was torn, and the injury was so serious that there was basically no possibility of conservative treatment.

Surgery means removing the meniscus.

The human body structure is the most precise, and the impact of taking a certain part of the body is self-evident.

Especially for athletes, this is definitely a huge blow, and it is very likely that they will never recover.

Of course, he wasn't looking at Duncan's jokes, and he wouldn't do such a shameless thing.

The reason why he felt depressed was purely because of this injury, which was so familiar.

In the original time and space, Duncan also encountered this injury this year.

It's just that the time of injury changed from the regular season to the playoffs, and it was the last moment when the Spurs were out.

In other words, because of the change in timing, it made the Sonics play this series very difficult.

Compared with the history of the original time and space, it seems that nothing has changed, but the supersonic game has become more difficult to play.

Wang Hao always felt that something was wrong and that he was being targeted.

So this is done on purpose by the system?
I don't know why, although there is no evidence, but he just thinks so, and it is so.

This system is a scam!
For some reason, Wang Hao always feels that this is just the beginning, and there will be even more unreliable things in the future.

Due to tight schedules and heavy tasks, the coaching staff began tactical arrangements on the way from Seattle to Los Angeles.

Not only the Sonics, but the Lakers also started preparing for the Western Conference semifinals early in the morning.

In the last game, they played at home, and now they are at home in the Western Conference semifinals, which saves them from the fatigue of the journey.

Early this morning, all the staff gathered in the training hall, and even O'Neill showed up on time.

It has to be said that the five games against the Kings, to some extent, can be regarded as waking them up.

The once mighty Lakers, as well as O'Neal, have restrained a lot of temper now.

From a certain point of view, the difficult encounter in the first round of the playoffs gave the Lakers a new look.

This is definitely not a good thing for the supersonic speed.

If the mentality of the Lakers in the first round of the playoffs comes to the semifinals, maybe the Sonics really have a chance.

Even, by replacing the Kings with the Supersonics, they really have a great possibility of overturning the Lakers.

"Seattle has only two cores, and that's the key to our defense this series."

In the locker room of the Lakers training facility, Phil Jackson is making arrangements before the game.

Offensive is mainly about tactics, while defense needs to be targeted, and understanding the opponent is the most important thing.

"Gary, one of the best point guards in the NBA and one of the best defenders, is the heart of Seattle.

The other is Wang, a rookie, but after one season, he is already the last swingman in the league.

In the first round of the playoffs, Gary averaged 22.8 points, 4.5 rebounds and 8.4 assists per game, a very comprehensive performance.

Not only that, but he also has a shooting percentage of 45.2%, and his low singles are very threatening.

Then there is Wang. In the game against the Spurs, he averaged 24.2 points, 6.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game.

In addition, he has 2.2 steals and 1.6 blocks, a very versatile performance on both ends of the offense and defense.

Not only that, but his shooting rate is also amazing, 49.3% shooting rate, which is amazing.

Also keep in mind that he takes 6.2 2.8-pointers per game and makes [-] of them.

You know, their opponent is the Spurs, even we must admit the Spurs' defense.

This shows that Wang's offensive selection is very good, and he will rarely force a shot again. To be honest, this is really not like a rookie.

In my opinion, he is the more important core of Seattle, and he is also the last defender in the first round of the playoffs. "

……

Phil Jackson's original intention was to analyze the Sonics, especially the strength of their two cores.

However, Wang Hao's performance as a rookie is so good that even Phil Jackson couldn't help but praise him.

This is a very normal thing, but, to some people, it is another matter.

Best performance?Is there a mistake?Didn't you look at me?

Except for a certain black mamba, there is no one else who can have this idea.

Although I had several friendly exchanges with Wang Hao, but when encountering this kind of thing, no one can come.

He is the best one.

The reason why Kobe has this idea is naturally for a reason, which stems from his wonderful performance in the first round.

O'Neal also had a sluggish performance, but Kobe Bryant performed brilliantly in five games.

In the first round of the playoffs, Kobe averaged 27.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game, a very good performance.

However, the data does not fully explain the problem.

After all, the opponents are different.

In five games, the Lakers averaged 90 shots per game, while the SuperSonics had only 78 shots.

The rhythms of the two groups are so different that there is no way to make a direct comparison.

What's more, the opponent facing the Sonics is one of the best defensive teams in the league.

As for the Kings, does this team have a defense?

Not only are they not good at defense, but they are constantly speeding up and playing fast, and they just point to the offense to eat.

Phil Jackson, who was speaking earnestly, suddenly felt a chill behind his back, as if he was being watched by something.

Fortunately, this feeling was only fleeting, and he didn't pay much attention to it, continuing to make defensive arrangements.

Kobe didn't dare to attack the head coach.

However, he has already decided that in the next game, he must entertain that rookie well.
