Fengshen NBA

Chapter 269 First Round

The long regular season is finally coming to an end, and every award is just as everyone guessed, but there is joy for many and sorrow for many.Xing Tian was the one who laughed the happiest, and also the one who was the most surprised.

The best rookie was finally won by West of the Bulls, which made George Gervin, who entered the All-Star, very unhappy, but this is also a strategy of the league.

The intention of the league is to let more people pay attention to the position of the substitute. Don't think that playing the substitute is a very shameful thing. West has set an example for everyone.

The sixth man also fell into West's hands. He played as a substitute for a season and led the team to the playoffs. It can be said that it is basically the credit of Jerry West.

These two awards have stimulated a large group of rookies. They no longer feel helpless for themselves as substitutes. They believe that as long as they work hard, they will definitely become the stars of the league one day.

The regular season MVP was produced among Xing Tian, ​​James, and Kobe. In the end, Xing Tian beat the pack and won the most important award in the regular season.

Originally, Xing Tian was very satisfied with being shortlisted. Compared with the other two, he still has some shortcomings, but he never thought that he would actually win the prize.

The reason given by the league is that Xing Tian attracted Garnett and McGrady to join with his personal charm, and got the second place in the Western Conference.

The performance of the Chinese team also went from eighth in the Western Conference last season to second in the league and second in the Western Conference.It can be said that Xing Tian's contribution this season is very great, which makes the fans satisfied.

Although Kobe was annoyed, he still generously called Xing Tian to congratulate him, and told Xing Tian not to be eliminated in the first round, and they would fight to the death in the Western Conference Finals.

Of course, some people were not convinced. O'Neal supported his teammates in public, thinking that James deserved this honor even more.

However, O'Neal's words have always been regarded as entertainment by people, and even James publicly stated that Xing Tian deserved this regular season MVP.

At the same time, Xing Tian joined hands with Kevin Garnett to enter the first team, and Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady entered the third team. It can be said that the introduction of two superstars allowed the Chinese to reach the sky in one step.

The Chinese team has also become a strong team in the league from a team at the end of the Western Conference. Now many head coaches are optimistic that the Chinese can make a difference in the playoffs.

The Chinese team ranked second in the league with a record of 62 wins and 19 losses, and second in the Western Conference.It only lost 2 more games than the No. [-] Lakers, and the Chinese also won two of the four games against the Lakers.

The outside media speculated that the probability of the Chinese team and the Lakers meeting in the Western Conference Finals is as high as 60.00%, and it is only the third Spurs and the fourth Warriors that can affect them.

The Chinese opponent in the first round is the Thunder. This season, because of the addition of Griffin, plus the original combination of Durant and Westbrook of the Thunder, they successfully entered the playoffs.

In the last game, they also competed with the Suns for the seventh and eighth positions. In the end, Durant killed the game, allowing the Thunder to rank seventh in the Western Conference, and the unlucky Suns could only rank eighth.

Staples had some trouble arranging the game. In the end, the game between the Chinese team and the Thunder was played first, and the game between the Lakers and the Suns was played the next day. This is also a benefit for the Lakers.

As soon as Griffin arrived in Los Angeles, he ran to the Chinese training hall, but he was stopped by the door. Everyone knew Griffin, but now he was the opponent of the Chinese team, so naturally he could not be let in.

Later, after Xing Tian and the others finished training, JJ Blake and Griffin could enter the training hall, and Xing Tian also took them to have a good meal, but the two said at the dinner table that they would blow up the Chinese team.

But looking at their expressions, they are not very confident. They feel that it is not easy to win against the Chinese last season, let alone Garnett and Tracy McGrady.

The first game started at [-] o'clock in the evening, but the fans surrounded Staples in the afternoon, and the fans who didn't buy it even chased the scalpers.

Hesitating that Staples tickets are limited, and one ID card can only buy up to two fans. In the end, these scalpers themselves turned their backs, thinking that this ticket should be reserved for themselves.

The Chinese who have been winning this season has given the fans great confidence. Everyone believes that the Chinese team will give everyone a satisfactory explanation in the first round of the game.

The starting lineup of the Chinese team has not changed in any way, and Xing Tian still leads them to play the starting lineup, but the Chinese team’s starting lineup accounts for 80.00% of the Chinese team’s points. question.

Xing Tian also approached Green Arrow United and Zhu Laoba in private. Zhu Laoba has tried his best. He is not good at attacking independently. He is still good at scoring without the ball. He must be equipped with a strong point guard to play his best. Zhu Laoba's strength.

The Green Arrows didn't say anything. He has been rated by the media as one of the players who have regressed the most this season. His dominance is not as good as last season, and his playing time is getting less and less.

Now the more Xing Tian plays, the better he is. Everyone says that Zhu Laoba, Green Arrow United, and Wang Dazhi all relied on Xing Tian to get the last season's statistics. Without Xing Tian, ​​they are just ordinary players.

Such remarks are not unreasonable. Sometimes when Xing Tian plays with them, their efficiency value is better than last season, but they rarely play together anymore.

The starting lineup for the Thunder is point guard Westbrook, the shooting guard is Nate McMillan, who began to explode in the second season, small forward Durant, power forward Griffin, and center Ibaka.

Compared with the Chinese team, this lineup has no advantage at all, but they came aggressively, especially Griffin, who was very excited to return to this familiar arena.

Griffin has been sitting on the bench last season, but his status has no way for him to play games, but now it is different, he can express his energy vigorously on the basketball court.

The rules of this season are four games to determine the outcome, which also gave some thoughts to the teams at the end. They felt that as long as they played normally, they might have a chance to win the game.

Moreover, such playoff rules also gave them the opportunity to train their team.Last season, it was a decisive game, and the team at the end had a round trip, and nothing was learned.

Garnett has developed a habit of jumping the ball this season. He easily grabbed the basketball over Ibaka's head.

Relying on his long hands and feet, Durant rushed up to give Xing Tian a big hat, but Xing Tian avoided Durant with a cat body, and scored two points with a small hook.

This was a big blow to Durant, who was already full of confidence. He felt that he had studied Xingtian for so long, and he would definitely be able to teach him a lesson.

"Hmph, dunk me again if you have the ability!" Durant was bullied by Xing Tian during the regular season. One of the top ten shots of the season was dunked by Xing Tian. This buckle.

"Don't worry, there are still three games to go!" Xing Tian chuckled, and handed the basketball to Griffin. Durant's provocation was nothing to Xing Tian. This league can provoke Kobe the most. It's Thomas.

Now my mentality is very good, it is basically impossible to use words to stimulate myself, unless it crushes Xing Tian in terms of strength.

Zhang Lili had explained to Xing Tian and the others before the game that it was best to settle the game in four games, and then deal with the second round with peace of mind, not to give Thunderclap a chance.

According to the coaching team's guess, if he can enter the second round, 70.00% will meet the Spurs.When they met the Spurs in the regular season, they played a three-to-one, and the three were still opponents, so they needed better physical fitness to face the Spurs.

They don't have any advantage against the Spurs. The coaching staff just want to finish this round quickly, then recharge their batteries and fight the Spurs with all their strength.

Even if the Spurs don't enter the second round, the Jazz who came in are not a good thing to mess with, and the team must be in its last state.

Xing Tian was defending against Westbrook, a guy with very strong physical fitness. The opponent passed Xing Tian in one step, and then exploded in the air.

This jumping speed made Xing Tian ashamed. It is impossible for a yellow race to reach this level in his life. It is a pity that this is the inside line of the Chinese team. Garnett suddenly defended and interfered with Westbrook's dunk.

The basketball went out of the frame and was snatched by Griffin, but when he wanted to dunk violently, Xing Tian snatched it off with his hands.

Big men like to grab the rebound and put it in the belly.It was at this moment that Xing Tian grabbed Griffin's basketball, and then passed a long pass to McGrady.

The best way for a big man to grab a rebound and protect the ball is to hold it high. This is what Gasol of the Lakers does best, and he is also the player with the least steals.

The moment he entered from Westbrook, McGrady consciously ran forward. He knew that after Xing Tian grabbed the rebound, he would definitely pass it to himself.

After McGrady received the basketball, he dunked directly.The offense of the Chinese team has always been so smooth, and the credit is basically attributed to Xing Tian.

"Boss, you steal me like this, I'm ugly!" Griffin was very helpless. He just grabbed a rebound and wanted to make a dunk at the basket, but Xing Tian snatched the basketball.

"Welcome home!" Xing Tian would tease Griffin like this every time, making Griffin lose his temper at all, and Xing Tian would teach him a lesson every time.

In the end, the Thunder lost the game, and the Chinese team put the game into garbage time in the third quarter. Although the Thunder recovered a bit in the fourth quarter, the Chinese team still easily won the first game. .

　I wanted to be a eunuch at first, but after thinking about it, although my grades are not very good, I should at least finish this book.After all, it was the first book I signed.

　　I'm very sorry, finish it early and go home early for the New Year.
