Chapter 354 (1/2)
After the division finals began, the East was one-sided and the nets swept the pistons 4-0.
Billups came out with injuries in a bad state, against Kidd was a little ugly, 4 position competition, veteran Clifford Robinson also can't defend Kenyon Martin of Fauvism.
The nets players who have had the experience in the finals are steady. Although the scores are not high, they can always beat the pistons by a little advantage.
Both sides only fourth game nets score more than 100, pistons the most a game to get 88 points, can't attack into the forbidden area, all rely on shooting. In the regular season, a group of people said that Ben Wallace was ”the soul of the team”. When he entered the playoffs, everyone would find that he was an ”undercover”. As soon as he was on the free throw line, all those who supported the pistons were panicked.
We all say that O'Neal's free throw is poor. In fact, O'Neal's free throw shooting rate has exceeded 50% in many seasons, and that of Big Ben's series is 39.7%. Some outside players known as ”blacksmith” have higher scoring efficiency than him.
The bad news for the nets is that veteran Mutombo is injured and in a low state. He only played 33 games in the regular season, and returned early in the playoffs to help the team win the championship.
Mutombo, who was not moving fast, is now playing on the move. He can't defend Duncan. The Nets' plan to send Van Horn away to strengthen the defense in the restricted area has failed.
The first four games of the Western Conference finals were tied 2-2, with each side losing a home court.
In this series, the difference between the two teams was not close. There was no key ball or a winner. The Suns' performance was not stable. In the second game, the Suns won the Spurs by 18 points. When they returned to home, they played the same way in the third game, and lost another 20 points.
”Tianwangshan battle” suns away game again by 10 points to defeat the Spurs, in an extremely advantageous position.
In this game, he went crazy inside. He took the substitutes for 26 minutes, made 10 of 14 shots, 4 of 6 free throws, and scored 24 points and 6 rebounds. He finished the Spurs veteran David Robinson, the latter played 24 minutes, 3-out-of-3, 6-out-of-6, only 5 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 4 blocks.
Parker was also shot out by Guo Xu. In 37 minutes, he made 3 of 7 shots, 20 of 3-point shots, 1 of 2 free throws, and got 7 points and 6 assists.
Guo Xu scored 27 points, 5 rebounds, 14 assists and 2 steals in 39 minutes. Although the shooting percentage was only more than 40% and the three-point ball was 2-for-7, he made a sharp breakthrough in the counterattack and made 11 free throws.
People began to believe that the sun won the championship, Guo Xu is the most popular star in the world, topic explosion.
”The important rotation of the rebuilt Suns are freshmen and sophomores, and they have even played to this level. The success of nets and Suns proves the value of super point guard. I just want to ask one question now. How toxic is Marbury? ”
”In the bull Dynasty, the point guard was the strongest star in the league, and now the era of point guard is coming.”
”If I could do it again, I think the Lakers would be willing to send both Kobe and O'Neal away in order to keep Jason Guo
”Another win, Guo Xu and the Suns will create a miracle.”
In the sixth game, the Suns were packed at home, and the players wore the White Retro home jerseys of the 1993 finals. The management hopes to use this way to get good luck, grind a sword for ten years, and then enter the finals.
It's a pity that, despite all the players' best efforts, they still failed to beat the Spurs at home, losing 94-101 and drawing 3-3 on the aggregate.
Sun Xinren played their lives in the fifth game. They actively ran at both ends of the attack and defense, and constantly fought against each other. This situation was affected. The rookies are not good at adjusting their state, which has been exposed in the regular season. The ups and downs of several games are too big.
