NBA money-spending system sparks jealousy among female celebrities.

The Celtics defeated the Magic in a Game 7 to advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals, where they will face the Knicks.

Now let's talk about the west.

The Thunder vs. Nuggets series, featuring the Thunder's "Big Three" versus the Nuggets' "Big Three," went from a 2-2 tie to a decisive Game 7.

"Shh!"

"boom!"

"Shh!"

Anthony's signature textbook jump shot under pressure at the start went in smoothly, leaving even Durant with no chance.

Immediately.

Stoudemire dominated under the basket, shoving Jeff Green aside, leaping up and slamming a powerful two-handed dunk over Krstic's head.

This dunk was powerful and heavy.

Billups didn't rush the offense, but instead stabilized the team's rhythm, utilizing Anthony and Stoudemire's strong defensive presence, one inside and one outside.

Left elbow area.

A jump shot on a golden opportunity... and it went in cleanly.

The "Nuggets' Big Three" are all formidable opponents.

The "Thunder Trio" are no pushovers either. Overflowing with talent and full of energy, their offensive is equally fierce.

"Shh!"

Facing Anthony, Durant used his signature "double crossover" to shake off Anthony, then pulled up high and launched a jump shot.

The ball leaves the hand, two points in.

He doesn't discriminate in his offense; even if it's Carmelo Anthony, he'll still score one-on-one.

"boom!"

Westbrook sets a screen for Durant, seemingly about to split up, but then suddenly shifts gears and accelerates.

He sped towards the basket.

The ball bursts into the air, and while gliding, the person holds the ball behind their head with both hands, bending their whole body into a bow shape, or like the letter "C".

"boom!"

The terrifying burst of energy left Stoudemire under the basket with no time to jump, and he could only watch helplessly as Westbrook dunked with both hands.

A "C-shaped" dunk.

Too handsome and too violent.

Harden took to the court early, and while his teammates were showcasing their talents to the fullest, he tackled both the shot and the pass, contributing to the team's success.

The "Thunder Trio" unleashed their full power, and their impact was unstoppable.

In the first quarter, the Nuggets' Big Three played better and took the lead.

In the second quarter, the "Thunder Trio" unleashed their full potential, repeatedly charging in and scoring with incredible aggression, bringing the score back to the top.

The second half.

The game resumes after switching sides.

Anthony and Stoudemire both exploded inside and out, once again seizing the initiative and suppressing the "Thunder Trio".

In the final quarter, the Nuggets had the upper hand in terms of offense.

The "Thunder Trio," who are known for their youthful energy, don't want to lose, and have no intention of losing at all.

They fought even harder.

They used their talent and physical strength as their capital, and fought to the bitter end against the "Nuggets Big Three".

Once or twice, throw yourself into the air.

They fell to the ground once or twice to fight for the loose ball.

They were incredibly determined, their desire to win was extremely strong, several times stronger than when they had just lost to the Magic.

Their hard work paid off.

With three minutes remaining in the final quarter, they once again closed the gap, taking a five-point lead over the Nuggets.

There is a difference, but not much.

With the final three minutes ticking away, the game transformed into a superstar showdown, a battle between the Nuggets' Big Three and the Thunder's Big Three!

Who has a stronger "heart"?

Whoever can remain calm under pressure and launch an attack will win the game and advance.

The Nuggets have possession of the ball.

In the commentary box.

Amy Johnson couldn't sit still, so he stood up and gave a passionate commentary:

"Anthony drives to the basket, Anthony dribbles with masterful skill, Anthony's triple threat is all a feint."

Carmelo Anthony... Huh? He actually forced a shot against the defense of two long-armed monsters, Durant and Jeff Green!

This is not a wise choice.

That shot?!

Forging iron.

There's still enough time, and the score difference isn't that big; there's no need to rush.

"This time, the Nuggets gave the offense to Stoudemire, who received the ball in the low post, backed down Jeff Green, and gradually moved inside."

The rhythm is great.

Jeff Green was strong, but he couldn't handle the "little tyrant" either, but... Kevin surrounded him.

Two-man encirclement.

Cameron had an opportunity on the perimeter, and Chauncey Billups also ran to an open spot; both players were reaching out.

With his individual skills, Stoudemire successfully created opportunities for his teammates.

Who should Stoudemire pass to?

Ah~~~ Stoudemire actually attacked on his own, forcefully attacking the heads of Jeff Green and Kevin, two incredibly talented forwards.

Very hard.

Very imposing.

But... the opportunity wasn't good either; this shot went wide due to interference.

No, the score is close. Even Russell missed his jump shot just now, and the difference is still only 5 points.

Why are Stoudemire and Cameron playing in such a hurry?

Why do they all try to score alone, so desperately trying to force points and close the gap for the team?!

Amy Johnson was very puzzled.

"I'm hooked."

Kenny Smith shook his head and explained, "When things go wrong, Cameron and Stoudemire become less composed."

They are eager to help the team catch up, so they will try to score aggressively and solve the problem.

That’s a good idea.

But they can get carried away and fall into a "single-player obsession," making them easy targets for their opponents and backfiring.

Carmelo Anthony and Chauncey James had wide-open shooting opportunities, but the Thunder didn't help; they kept double-teaming Stoudemire, knowing he wouldn't pass.

"Ah~"

Amy Johnson realized this and frowned: "But if we keep playing like this, the situation will only get worse for the Nuggets!"

"no way!"

Kenny Smith shook his head: "A stable temperament is also a standard feature of superstars."

Cameron and Stoudemire are both very strong.

But... that's where we fell short; otherwise, this series wouldn't have gone to a Game 7.

On the field.

"You two bastards, calm down!"

Billups launched into a tirade, hoping to wake the two up.

Unfortunately... it was completely useless.

Because the game had progressed to this point, you could only hand the ball to Stoudemire and Cameron, and those two were endlessly playing one-on-one.

If you're in good form and play like a superstar, you have a chance to win.

But their opponents are the "Thunder Trio," and the game is a decisive Game 7 in the final moments; they won't give them a chance.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

As Stoudemire and Carmelo missed several one-on-many offensive attempts, the Nuggets lost the game.

The "Thunder Trio," who unleashed a "youth storm," advanced to the Western Conference semifinals.

This was a brutal series.

The Thunder had the last laugh.

After the game.

When Stephen A. Smith asked Durant how he felt about the win, he excitedly replied, "You know, it was a tough series."

The Nuggets, with Stoudemire joining them, are a true championship contender.

Defeating him is like having the championship trophy in one hand.

This year, after another year of growth, our strength has increased by leaps and bounds, and our talents have been fully realized.

We will fight our way through the competition, make it to the finals, and win the championship.

At that time... I will lift the championship trophy, confess my love to Hemansa, and let her know how great and charming I am as a basketball player!

Make her fall hopelessly in love with me!!!

???

Bro, Hemansa, who's number two on the list of the top 100 beauties, is a stunner like Salena. She's not someone you can win over.

Take my advice and give up.

While inwardly complaining, A. Smith still smiled and said, "Congratulations on leading your team to the semifinals, and I hope you succeed in winning over your love!!!"

"Of course!"

Durant raised his arms and roared, brimming with confidence.

The Thunder's locker room after the game.

The players celebrated their advancement, and Durant raised a champagne glass and roared, "Brothers, we must win the championship this year!"

Only by winning the championship will I be qualified to declare my love for Hemansa once again!

Please help me!

"I will definitely help Kevin."

Westbrook raised a champagne glass and shouted, and Harden echoed, "Winning the championship is inevitable!"

Winning the championship + a beautiful woman.

Kevin wants them all!!!

"Oh~"

"Thunder are the champions!"

Defeating the formidable Nuggets has boosted the Thunder's confidence and morale!

And the Nuggets' locker room.

The atmosphere was silent; everyone was in a terrible mood.

The addition of Stoudemire once made them the most popular contenders for the championship in the league, which made every Nuggets player full of expectations for winning the title!

The result... was elimination in the first round.

The contrast was hard for everyone to accept at first.

"Hey……"

Billups sighed softly and murmured, "To be honest, superstars are generally very emotionally stable."

But why do we suddenly have two superstars with such unstable emotions on our team?!

……

With the Thunder defeating the Nuggets to advance, the first round of the playoffs is now complete.

The semifinal matchups for each division have also been announced.

Western Conference: Lakers vs. Thunder, Spurs vs. Mavericks.

Eastern Conference: Knicks vs. Celtics, Heat vs. Bulls.

That night.

The fans were immediately agitated, and everyone started analyzing and speculating about the next round's outcome.

A fan with the ID "Shoukunzhe" stepped forward once again.

He guessed almost all of his predictions correctly in the first round, and his analysis was convincing. His analysis last year was also quite accurate, which earned him some popularity.

Many fans are happy to hear his analysis.

[Shoukunzhe] commented: "Without further ado, let's get straight to the point and start with the West."

Lakers vs. Thunder.

"Diamond Backcourt" vs. "Thunder Trio" - this lineup matchup is incredibly exciting.

Who will win?!

The Thunder's young trio is the younger side; they have more talent and play with more passion.

But... the "diamond backcourt" of Kobe and Chriss had an astonishing level of dominance on the court.

Russell and James Harden will be completely outmatched.

The addition of the "Queen Bee" has further strengthened the Lakers' already championship-caliber roster, propelling them to become a top-tier team.

They were invincible in the west.

Even a team as strong as the "Thunder Trio" would have a hard time winning if... they could reduce their mistakes and fully realize their speed and talent.

If we use a youth storm to catch the Lakers off guard, we might still have a chance.

But it's still very difficult.

I predict the Lakers will win 4-1 or 4-2, a fairly easy victory against the Thunder's "Big Three"!

The series between the Spurs and the Mavericks.

On the surface, the Spurs are stronger, by a significant margin, but... this year, Dirk Nowitzki, the "D-country machine," is too dominant.

He put up a "180 Club" level performance, and he also had a group of teammates in great form.

They seem to be able to create endless possibilities.

I slightly favor the Spurs, but they'll have to play at least six games, possibly even a Game 6!

Now let's talk about the east.

Heat vs. Bulls.

Derrick Rose, nicknamed "Windy City Rose," is a third-year student with a mature playing style, showing his seriousness and love for basketball.

He played at an MVP level.

With the support of their well-rounded "Big Three" inside players, the Bulls appear to be an invincible force.

But... their opponents are the "Heat Big Three," villains straight out of a comic book.

Three against one.

In the high-intensity playoffs, it will be extremely difficult for the Bulls, led by a single star, to overcome the Heat.

If the Heat's defense against Derrick succeeds, they have a high chance of beating the Bulls 4-1, or at most 4-2.

Regardless of the score, the Heat were destined to win against the Bulls.

Knicks vs. Celtics.

Old rivals clash.

"The New York Three" vs. "The New Celtics' Big Five".

Last year, Su Yan alone was able to overturn the "Big Five" of the Celtics. Although the Celtics have made a strong acquisition of Pau Gasol this year, the level of Ray Allen, KG, and Truth has declined.

Their overall strength has improved, but not by a particularly large amount.

The Knicks are different.

Su Yan was already incredibly strong, and this year he has improved in both talent and technique.

He has even greater strength, and he still looks like he can single-handedly contend with the "new Celtics" Big Four.

Based on this.

Stephen Curry has become a "cute little god," having scored 50+ points in a single game this season.

That's excellent.

Rookie Paul George has shown his talent, wielding considerable influence on both defense and fast breaks.

He is a good fit for the Knicks' "run-and-gun" system.

The combined strength of the "New York Three" must be greater than that of the Celtics.

The new Celtics' "Big Five" should win some games, but victory will belong to the Knicks.

"Okay...that makes a lot of sense."

"You know what, you know what, the [Kun Collector]'s analysis was so logical and convincing, it seemed so serious."

So knowledgeable about the situation?

[The Collector] Are you also very good at basketball?

[The one who collects the Kun]: "No, no, I've only played basketball for two and a half years, I'm a beginner!"

"In that case, this year's conference finals will be: Knicks vs. Heat, and Lakers vs. Spurs."

Uh……

The top two teams from each division will meet in the divisional finals, which is quite reasonable and in line with expectations.

"Hehe, there's no way I, the Thunder Three Young Masters, can lose."

"Dirk Nowitzki, the 'D-Nation Machine,' is invincible this year; the Mavericks can't possibly lose."

"You know the Celtics have five superstars, so how could they possibly lose?"

"Pshaw~ I'll always believe in 'Windy City Rose'!!!"

"..."

Fans were discussing it enthusiastically, constantly building anticipation for the divisional semifinals.

……

The eight teams that advanced also warmed up actively after their matches.

Su Yan's Thunder defeated the Nuggets, confirming that there were only three days left before the conference semifinals.

He set about recharging himself.

The first game of the series is crucial. A good start and a victory will give the team a winning start.

They will take the initiative throughout the series.

at the same time.

Iris called Su Yan hoping to meet him, have a meal, and discuss business cooperation.

Su Yan agreed.

On the one hand, the business goddess took the initiative to invite him, and it would be somewhat disrespectful to refuse.

On the other hand, if they can really cooperate, they could get Iris to help them suppress LV.

There's a higher chance they'll dethrone Louis Vuitton!

Think about it this way.

Su Yan agreed!
