Win!
When the red light came on, the Hawks bench jumped en masse and cheered the victory. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Ruan Erniu clenched his right hand into a fist and raised it high.
He was smiling and looked confident and calm in the crowd.
When you think about it, this is the first time in his career that he has swept an opponent in the playoffs.
Well, but this is only the second season of Erniu's career, even if the Celestial Dynasty people already have the status of the first person in the league.
The game is over, and there is naturally no tension between the players of the two teams.
Erniu also wanted to step forward and high-five McDeis, who had hugged him, only to find that the former All-Star had long since left.
McDice isn't a bad guy in life, but on the field, he needs to use some means to win.
"Congratulations!"
The first person to walk up and hug Erniu was Rashid Wallace.
The historical status of Roaring Tianzun was once elevated by some basketball editors of the Celestial Empire, and in the so-called four former statements (Garnett, Duncan, Webb, Wallace), Rashid is undoubtedly the most watery one, but since he helped the Pistons win the championship, even if there is a gap between the data and the top three, his historical low position has indeed improved a lot.
Ruan Erniu's straight-arm shooting training also drew a lot of nourishment from Rashid Wallace's video.
Of course, people generally only pay more attention to Ruan Erniu's violent dunks, low-post performances and top-arc three-pointers developed in the new season, but often ignore one of the most important weapons of the Celestial Empire Great Demon King - 12-15 feet mid-range projection.
"Thank you, your shot, I used to learn from it. Erniu said in Wallace's ear.
"Really? Then I deserve the honor, Kraft, you have a long way to go, and I hope you can win this year's championship. ā
"Yes, no matter who the opponent is, I will not let the O'Brien Cup slip out of my hands. ā
On the other hand, Hamilton is also saying goodbye to the embarrassed Sen who has suffered so much.
"When you defeated us last year, to be honest, I thought there was a chance for revenge this year. Masked Man said as he hugged him.
"Come on, RIP (Hamilton nickname), even if Chauncey doesn't leave, you don't have a chance. Embarrassed Sen immediately shot back, "Have you thought about your future?"
"Who knows? Let's take it one step at a time! It's not something I can decide. ā
Hamilton is right, the team rebuilding is obvious, and they old courtiers will naturally be used as bargaining chips and be traded at any time.
Loyalty has always been cheap in the NBA, and Billups may not want to go, but Dumas still insisted on trading him for Iverson.
If the team doesn't talk about loyalty to the players, why should the players be loyal to the team?
A superstar's choice to stay or leave is never wishful thinking, it is often the result of a multi-party game.
Ruan Erniu and Yu Yusen, who are at their peak, have not encountered similar problems, but what about the future?
No one can say badly!
In the post-game press conference, Pistons head coach Michael Curry said: "We've had a tough season, the team has really declined, and the health of the older players has ......"
"I just want to know, why can't Iverson play?" asked a local reporter in Detroit unceremoniously.
Michael Curry's facial muscles twitched, then he coughed and said, "I was about to talk about injuries, and AI is ...... too"
"Billups is now leading the Nuggets 2-1 over the Hornets, what do you think?"
"Chauncey did a great job. Okay, the next reporter to ask. Michael Curry said embarrassedly.
ā¦ā¦
Michael Curry's answer after that was even more disappointing.
He is destined to leave the Pistons at the end of the season, which is the consensus of most reporters present.
A person who has lost his self-confidence is not qualified to remain in the position of head coach of the team.
Nguyen Er Niu then attended the press conference as a winner.
A reporter asked: "Kraft, do you think sweeping the Pistons will give the Hawks more confidence to deal with the next game?"
"No, every series is different, we just have to play every round, every game, and the opponent will be stronger, and the experience of this round of the playoffs is not directly related to the next round of the playoffs. ā
The Detroit reporter who questioned Michael Curry just now suddenly asked: "This summer is Joe Johnson's contract year, do you think he deserves the salary cap?"
Ruan Erniu was stunned, and then said: "Although this matter is not under my control, I think Qiao is definitely worthy of the top salary." ā
"So, do you think there will be room for the Hawks to strengthen after Joe Johnson signs him with a maximum salary?" said Detroit reporter Tu Poor.
Ruan Erniu shook his head and said, "This is not something I should have a headache for, you should ask Billy (Knight)." ā
Obviously, the Detroit reporter is a complete Pistons fan, he not only dares to scare Michael Curry, but also does not let the Hawks go, high salaries can keep the main players, but what about other role players?
Although many people's contracts will not expire until next season, once the high salary is renewed, where is the space to renew others, not to mention, there is also the renewal of Erniu's own contract.
The two owners of the Eagles are not generous players, and they also have to think about profitability.
Some of the pits are digging now and people don't react, but looking at them after a while, it's enough to make people unrecoverable.
Fortunately, not everyone is as disgusted with the Hawks as the Detroit reporter, and the ESPN reporter asked, "Kraft, do you think you'll be the MVP of the season?"
Ruan Erniu smiled and asked, "Who is the MVP of this season in your mind?"
The ESPN reporter also laughed: "Kraft Nguyen!"
Erniu lowered his body and said into the microphone: "I think so too!"
After speaking, all the reporters present laughed together.
Finally, someone asked whether the Hawks hope to meet the Magic or the Heat in the next round.
Currently, the Magic lead the Heat 3-1, but it is still difficult to determine who will win in the end.
"I can't make a prediction, I can only say that no matter who the final opponent is, we will defeat them and win the championship," Nguyen said. ā
When it comes to this, you can put aside the humility or something.
No one is here to play in the playoffs, and under the brutal competition of WIN-OR-GO-HOME, there is no way to go to the end without firm faith and self-confidence.
At the end of the press conference, the first team of the season to advance to the second round of the playoffs was also decided.
After sweeping their opponents, the Hawks will be the first to return to Atlanta to rest, waiting for the winner between the Heat and the Magic to come and challenge.
And looking at the entire league, the score of 4:0 is only that.
The 2:1 score is one of the mainstream of the league, and the current Lakers vs Jazz, Rockets vs Trail Blazers, and Nuggets vs Hornets are all this score.
The other dominant score is 3:1, with Magic vs. Heat, Celtics vs. 76ers, and Spurs vs. Mavericks.
It is important to note that the first two are the top teams ahead of the bottom teams, while the Dallas Mavericks are on the road to the Black Six.
Hurting Ginobili, Popovich had no way to stop the calf's fire-focused attack.
The only 2:2 score is the Cavaliers VS Bulls, Derrick Rose's best rookie is stable, as a rookie in the league he led the team and the James-led Cavaliers just lived!
