I'm really good at shooting.

As a result, no one is available inside the Mavericks.

In the end, O'Neal scored 40 points, 21 rebounds and 5 blocks, blasting the Mavericks inside.

Even though Sun Hao and Nowitzki scored 60 points together, the Mavericks still lost 106-112.

And that's just the beginning.

In the following games, Kobe's shot rights continued to be compressed.

This is also a reasonable thing.

There are two factions in the team, but there is only one person on Kobe's side, and his opposite even has the team's head coach!

Really want to achieve this point, just need an external condition.

In the second game, Kobe took crazy shots and didn't give O'Neal the ball, that's the condition.

然后，奥尼尔第四场再轰28分18板7盖帽6助攻的准四双，湖人队也106比101再扳回一城。

Then, at Tianwangshan, O'Neal seemed to have lost control. He scored 45 points and 15 rebounds, one point short of tying his single-game scoring record in the playoffs.

What Dampier, what LaFrentz, what Collins who pulled up to put out the fire, all were not enough for him to bite his teeth!

115 to 108, the Lakers won Tianwangshan away, pulled three cities in a row, and rewritten the big score to 3 to 2!

You thought that when the Lakers blew themselves up and sent the Mavericks to the Western Conference Finals, O'Neal told you that there is no problem that talent can't solve. If there is, it just means that your talent is not enough!

And the Mavericks can be regarded as self-inflicted consequences.

They used to hoard up to 6 inside wheels O'Neal in the interior, but now they have reached the point where no one can use the interior.

Of course, never underestimate the heart of a champion, and don't forget one person, G6 Sun!

In Los Angeles, the home court of the Lakers, Sun Hao pressed the switch of his avatar, and scored 10 three-pointers in a single game, scoring 42 points!

Under his leadership, the Mavericks beat the Lakers 121 to 105 and brought the game back to Dallas!

There were even many Los Angeles fans cheering for Sun Hao that night.

G6 Sun really lives up to his reputation!

The two sides will usher in a tiebreaker!

"It was definitely the most intense game of the season."

"It was a game with no losers, they were all winners."

"Two great teams, played a great game."

After the tiebreaker, fans used these words to describe it.

Intense, tragic, and even heroic can all be used to describe this game.

In the tiebreaker, both sides could not retreat.

The game fell into a fever from the very beginning.

O'Neal is still unstoppable inside, while Sun Hao and Nowitzki are both fully fired.

The Mavericks once established a double-digit lead in the second quarter.

But in the third quarter, O'Neal and Malone abruptly led the team to catch up with the score.

The fierce battle between the two teams continued until the fourth quarter, until the last 2 minutes, and even the last... 0.4 seconds.

When the two teams played against each other last year, old Curry beat the Lakers in 0.4 seconds, and that scene is still fresh in people's memory.

Only this time, the ball is on the Lakers' side.

Sun Hao was keenly aware of something, and after the Lakers served the ball, he chased and defended Fisher.

But Ma Long, the old guy who Kobe walked away in the 1998 All-Star Game and didn't give him a pick-and-roll, gave Sun Hao a solid pick-and-roll.

Yes, he and Stockton have blocked for a lifetime, and only he can make such a pick-and-roll.

Then there was Fisher, who received a pass from Payton, turned and took off.

Nowitzki's supplementary defense was in place, but he failed to complete the block.

The ball is released, and the red light on the sidelines is on.

"Shh!"

A crisp sound echoed in the National Airline Center.

Coming out and mixing, sooner or later I have to pay it back.

ps: This chapter changed several ways of writing, and finally chose this one. I don’t know if this ending is a good one, but everyone can see the progress of the season. This is a transitional season. I will try my best to move forward. There must be a lot of things to happen this offseason, and it should be the biggest turning point of this book. I hope I can write him well.

Well, still, it will be a new month soon, and it will be a waste if you don’t vote, thank you in advance~

Chapter 336 The end of the season, the championship belongs

Johnson ran to the stands to check whether Fisher's shot was timed out, and finally came back with his head in frustration.

Fisher killed them the way old Curry did last year.

The Mavericks, lost, lost to the F4 Lakers.

Although the score of 3 to 4 shows that the strength of the two teams is not much different, and Fisher's final lore has a lot of luck, the Mavericks still lost.

Their road to defending the title came to an abrupt end.

Sun Hao also showed helplessness on his expression.

No matter how hard he tried, it was impossible for him to run to the inside.

And he also knows why the Lakers in history were able to reach the finals.

Even if there are many internal conflicts, but relying on talent alone, they can defeat most of their opponents.

If it weren't for the Pistons, the Lakers should have won the championship that year.

The game is over, and the fans cheered and applauded the Mavericks players.

The Mavericks also reached out to respond.

Losing is not the end of the world.

Before last season, they had been losing as well.

Big deal, just win it back next season.

And knowing where to lose, targeted reinforcement, the chance of winning back is not small.

Johnson's mood looked downcast.

He wanted to prove himself wholeheartedly, but unfortunately he failed in the end.

After Sun Hao saw it, he went over to comfort him.

For a rookie coach, being able to take the team to this point is not bad.

And after experiencing this failure, Johnson should know that his stubborn character is not a good thing, and he should also discover some shortcomings in his tactics.

I believe that next season, he will make some changes.

This is where the saying failure is the mother of success comes from.

"It's frustrating not to be able to defend the title, but we will win it back soon. What doesn't break you will make you stronger."

In the press conference after the game, Sun Hao was very vocal.

Nobody thinks what he said was arrogant or anything, because he's done it before.

Of course, although Sun Hao said so, fans complained in the forum after the game is indispensable.

"Hurry up and get old Nelson back, I'm really tired of watching Johnson's misplaced singles!"

"Johnson is more suitable as an assistant coach than a head coach. The Mavericks are relying on Sun and Dirk this season!"

"I am a Chinese fan. I think what you said is right. There is a book in our country called Romance of the Three Kingdoms. If old Nelson is compared to Zhuge Liang, then Johnson is Ma Su."

"Johnson is too immature after all. I don't think he is an incompetent coach, but he is obviously not suitable for the current Mavericks."

"Old Nelson, come back quickly, we are waiting for you!"

……

Obviously, the blame for the fans' loss lies with Johnson.

On the second day, a reporter threw these comments to Sun Hao.

"Avery is a very talented coach. He contributed a lot to the team in the series that defeated the Spurs last year. He also led us to achieve very good results in the past season. Losing is not the result of one person. The responsibility belongs to all of us on the team."

Sun Hao defended Johnson in front of reporters.

Until Nelson Sr. returns, no one is a better fit for the Mavericks than Johnson.

What he hopes is the same as before, that Johnson can rise up after failure and prove himself again.

Of course, those are all things for next season.

At least after the loss, the ensuing draft and offseason will matter.

……

The Mavericks and the Lakers played vigorously in the Western Conference semifinals.

By the time they finished seven games, the rest of the games had also been played.

In the West, the Timberwolves also defeated the Spurs 7-4 in 3 games and advanced to the Western Conference Finals.

This is also the first time in their team history that they have reached the Western Conference Finals.

Garnett, who has been stuck in 58 stalks for the past two years, can be said to be really proud this season.

In this way, the opponents of the Western Conference Finals are also determined, the Lakers VS Timberwolves.

Both sides have played seven games in the semifinals, and fortunately, no one will be absent due to injury. This Western Conference Finals will definitely play sparks.

In the East, the Pacers were also 4 to 3, and it was difficult to defeat the Nets after 7 fierce battles.

The two teams played extremely fiercely, but the game scene will not be too good.

According to fans, Stern once appeared in the first game of the series opener, but he never appeared again.

On the other side, the Pistons beat the Wizards 4-2.

Although Yao Ming has a great advantage in the matchup with Daben, Arenas is not Jordan after all, and he has not yet reached his personal peak.

And Anthony, who was sluggish in the first round, broke his rookie wall in this round.

After 6 games, he averaged 19.6 points per game, and his shooting percentage reached 44%.

This kind of performance has made Detroit fans optimistic about the team's prospects.

Ever since, the two teams that had had a strong smell of gunpowder in the regular season met in the Eastern Conference Finals.

On one side is the evolved Pacers led by Carlisle, and on the other is the Piston Six Tigers led by Brown.

In terms of excitement alone, the Eastern Conference Finals may attract more attention than the Western Conference Finals.

Before that begins, though, the league announced the third batch of awards.

Best team, and MVP.

Best defensive team: Bell, Kobe, Artest, Garnett, Ben Wallace;

Best Defensive Second Team: Kidd, Bowen, Kirilenko, Duncan, Yao Ming;

He has made great progress. After being selected to the second team last year, Bell finally entered the first team this year.

Yao Ming was selected to the defensive lineup for the first time.

The best lineup: Sun Hao, Kobe, Garnett, Duncan, O'Neal;

The second team of the best team: Kidd, McGrady, Peja, O'Neal, Big Ben;

The three teams of the best team: Reed, Cassel, Artest, Nowitzki, Yao Ming;

Compared with last season, the competition for the best team can be said to be more intense.

Nowitzki was abruptly squeezed into the third team by O'Neal.
