Basketball's best forward and guard

Chapter 345 256 [Advance to the finals]

Damian Lillard's true feelings, although it seems tearful, but at the same time, it also means that the season belonging to the Portland Trail Blazers is officially over.

Although the Western Conference Finals series is not over yet, it now seems that the Dallas Mavericks' advancement to the Finals has become a certainty.

Sure enough, three days later, at the same place, when the Bayonet led the Dallas Mavericks to another victory, it officially announced the end of the Western Conference Finals this season.

When the Dallas Mavericks officially advanced to the finals, many people were a little emotional.

Playing back the time before the start of this season, who would have thought that the Dallas Mavericks would be the team that advanced to the finals in the Western Conference this season?
People at the time, who would have believed that Bayonet, a 22-year-old boy, would soar in the Dallas Lone Ranger.

From the beginning of the season to the present, people have accompanied the rise of the Dallas Mavericks all the way, including the playoffs.

But at this moment, when everyone witnessed the Dallas Mavericks advancing to the finals, it still felt a little unreal.

Because many people are very clear about what it means for a young team such as the Dallas Mavericks to easily advance to the finals stage.

"Let's not discuss whether the Dallas Mavericks can successfully win the O'Brien Cup in the next finals stage. In fact, when this moment really happens, we should think more about the future of the league in the next few years." The situation, I mean, with the Dallas Mavericks advancing to the Finals this season, it will mean that the Dallas Mavericks will still be one of the most likely teams in the league to advance to the Finals in the next few seasons.”

"The reason why I say this is for a reason. Their configuration is too full of potential. The duo composed of Bayonet + Luka Doncic will grow to an immeasurable height in the near future"

"People will see the shadow of the 2012 Oklahoma City Thunder from the current Dallas Mavericks, but in fact, what I want to say is that the combination of Bayonet + Luka Doncic is obviously less than the original Thunder. higher potential”

After the Western Conference finals, Jeff Van Gundy, a well-known ESPN commentator, expressed emotion on Twitter.

Obviously, Jeff Van Gundy's words resonated with a lot of people.Especially when he mentions the 2012 Thunder team.

When it comes to the Thunder team in 2012, many people will have a feeling of regret.After all, the Thunder team with Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and James Harden lost the game despite advancing to the Finals for the first time.

But their additions are enviable, and their future is bright. At that time, almost everyone thought that the Thunder team would dominate the league in the next season.

But the world is unpredictable. The Thunder management, which has always been very accurate in the draft, has been dismembered because of the millions of dollars that Jiang everyone thinks of the dynasty.

Frankly speaking, this has become one of the most regrettable trading operations in NBA history.

At this moment, the twin stars of the Dallas Mavericks are obviously a replica of the original Thunder, and the reason why Jeff Van Gundy said that the current Mavericks has a high ceiling.

That's because neither the Bayonet nor Luka Doncic can leave the Dallas Mavericks for the time being, and Dallas is a big city, and Mark Cuban is a generous boss.

With so many factors mixed, it is actually not difficult to draw a conclusion, that is, the Dallas Mavericks who have advanced to the finals this season, no matter what the fate of the next finals, they have actually successfully threatened the next few seasons. The rest of the league has room for error.

Usually, people refer to this situation as the rise of a dynasty.

"With Mark Cuban's character and vision, he will never let go of such a good opportunity, so wait and see, the upcoming offseason, the transfer market is destined to return to a bloody storm, the Dallas Lone Ranger is in This summer has a good salary space, and once they get the O'Brien Cup, their trading capital will also appreciate. In this case, they will definitely use the bayonet + Luka Doncic. The team building of the dynasty, so, I mean, this summer's Dallas Mavericks, no accident will come at least one giant player"

ESPN columnist Bill Wharton also couldn't help but make remarks.

"Isn't Cameron Anthony a giant? Or, will Cameron Anthony leave the Dallas Mavericks after this season?"

Many fans questioned this.

Obviously, Carmelo Anthony is definitely a star player today, although his state is still not comparable to his peak state.

But now he is still better than most players in this league.

The most important point is that Cameron Anthony is a striker, a rare player in this small ball era.

"Cameron Anthony is of course a good choice, but his age is there. I mean, the Dallas Lone Ranger will want Cameron Anthony to stay, but it is absolutely impossible to give him a new contract"

"On the other hand, for Cameron Anthony himself, this will be the last chance for him to get a big contract in his career. If he goes to another team, maybe no team will not give him a big contract."

Bill Walton gave his reasons.

"Moreover, with the bayonet, the Dallas Mavericks do not lack immediate combat power at the forward position. Not surprisingly, DeAndre Jordan will leave the Dallas Mavericks after the end of the season. In this case, the Dallas Mavericks are actually the best What should be strengthened is the inside line.”

Bill Walton continued.

People agree with his point of view.

It's just that everyone really didn't expect that in the upcoming offseason, where are there any outstanding inside players in the transfer market?
Golden State Warriors' Draymond Green's contract has expired, but I'm afraid he won't be in the eyes of the Dallas Lone Ranger at all

"Let's wait and see. This year's transfer market is destined to not be calm. As far as the Western Conference teams are concerned, the Golden State Warriors, Houston Rockets, and Portland Trail Blazers are all likely to be reorganized, and the Los Angeles Lakers are also likely to reorganize. I will definitely go all out to build a real championship lineup for LeBron James. In this case, any trade is possible at that time."

With Bill Walton's final concluding speech, many people are looking forward to the arrival of the offseason transfer market in addition to looking forward to the next finals.
