Chapter 338: The Mystery of the Eagles' Might
Before the Eastern Conference Finals, the media from all walks of life had their own predictions, they thought that the Celtics would win two games in a row and push the Hawks into trouble, they thought that the Hawks would win one away game and the two teams would enter G3 in a tie, and they even considered the situation of the Hawks winning two games in a row, although the probability was extremely low. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But the reality is that the Hawks actually killed the Celtics by a big score and almost crushing posture on two consecutive away games.
In G2 in particular, Celtic were awarded several controversial advantage decisions, but the results remained the same.
The young Eagles' unbeatable victory over the BIG3-owned Celtics was a complete reversal of all expectations.
How can the Eagles be so strong? Why are the Eagles so strong?
This is not only a question that the Celtics need to summarize, but also a topic that the entire league and even the entire basketball world need to discuss and think about.
The Suns' RUN-GUN was kicked out of the playoffs early, and the Spurs have repeatedly restrained the so-called small-ball tactics with a strong interior defense. The Hawks, however, used their small-ball tactics to take out the mighty Celtics in two straight games.
All kinds of arguments surfaced, and even Dong Qiudi was difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood for a while:
1. The reason why the Atlanta Hawks were able to get the Celtics was because they didn't play pure small-ball tactics.
Most of the time, the Hawks were playing with their normal starting lineup, and they only suddenly picked up speed at key moments in the game to change the situation on the court.
It should be pointed out that while they are fast, they concede fewer points on the defensive end than the regular lineup, which means that the defensive advantage of the Hawks has not disappeared in this Hawks raid lineup that can be called a death lineup.
Second, the Eagles' small-ball model can't be replicated, because you can't find the second 20+ per game average of more than two meters, the ultimate rebounding monster.
Countless people are singing about the greatness of the ball and the gorgeous beauty of basketball, but they have forgotten the embarrassment of the Suns being repeatedly killed by the Spurs.
However, we can no longer find such a drawback in this Hawks, and that is because Celestial Dynasty rookie Kraft Nguyen has solved the team's rebounding problem alone.
When he first entered the league, some people also called him a low-profile version of David Lee, and it turned out that in terms of defensive end and basket protection ability, David Lee did not deserve Kraft Nguyen's shoes, and Kraft Nguyen's historical-level low-post skills were not something David Lee could match.
At this point, he is a player in the same gear as O'Neal and Barkley, and O'Neal and Barkley are far inferior to Ruan Erniu in rebounding.
The constant supply of rebounds from a guy destined to become one of the league's top 60 or 70 superstars is the key to the Hawks' victory.
Three, the underrated Atlanta Hawks, they really have a BIG4.
Joe Johnson, a powerful player promoted by league stars, is even known as the "modern-day Jordan" on the other side of the Pacific Ocean (rice fans take it seriously).
In fact, in the more than two years that he has led the Hawks independently, the team's record has actually been on the rise, and like Pierce, Joe Johnson is also a strong floor player, his offensive skills are quite rich, there are 1,000 ways to put the basketball in the basket, and he is low-key and humble.
Josh Smith, the Georgia native, has risen in the ranks of the team year after year. This season, under the influence of Kraft, he gradually developed the technique of the low post.
This has become a rare ability for the current league insider, and this year is his contract year, and his performance feels worthy of a 10-million-level contract.
Mike Bibby, who is also a player whose strength is greater than his fame, and the White Devils, who have not been selected as an All-Star once in his career, are at his peak and are fully qualified for the top five spots in the league. Compared to the flamboyant style of the white chocolate J-WILL, Bibby is indeed too rustic, but his stability and big heart are indeed the dream puzzle pieces of a championship team.
In the end, there is still no way to get around Kraft Nguyen, the perverted data of the rookie of the Celestial Empire does not need to be repeated, he is destined to be a part of superstar history from the moment he joins the alliance.
In particular, his assist stats range from 5 per game in the regular season to 7.4 per game in the playoffs.
Kraft Nguyen's assist ability is underrated!
In fact, in the Hawks' lineup, he and Bibby have always existed as a duo, and Misery is also a good assister, and all three of them have enough passing vision.
In contrast, the Suns, who only rely on Nash-driven, are easier for the defense to find a way to target.
Well, anyway, the Hawks were blown into the universe, and who blames them for crushing the Celtics in two games in a row?
At the press conference after the game, Ruan Erniu, Yu Sen and Woodson attended together.
Although before that, River also said that the Celtics would come up with a way to play in G3 and that they would reinstate the game in Boston, the words of the losers will not be the focus, and the Hawks' boys will be the target of everyone's pursuit.
The CNN reporter asked bluntly, "Are you going to sweep the Celtics?"
Sweep, is a specific word that means that the Hawks will beat the Celtics by a disparity of 4-0 to advance to the Finals.
Woodson said in a low-key manner: "I don't think the Celtics will be tied up, so far in the playoffs, only the Lakers have completed a sweep in the first round, and our goal is to advance first, it doesn't matter whether they sweep or not." ”
Erniu and Embarrassing also affirmed the head coach's statement, saying that promotion is the first priority, and sweeping is not their pursuit.
"Now that the whole league is talking about your 'Hawks Raid,' can you think that your small-ball tactics are already on top of the Suns' RUN-GUN?"
Ruan Erniu said with a smile: "If there is any game in the regular season this season that I am most helpless, it must be the game against the Phoenix Suns, we were completely defeated and had no power to fight back."
Of course, at that time, MB hadn't come yet, and our lineup hadn't been in place. If I get the chance, I hope to play against the Suns again next season, and I'm sure that when we get to the court, everyone will have a visual comparison of our small-ball tactics, and there is no point in talking about that now. ”
The Boston Globe reporters seemed to have lost hope of a head-on win over the Hawks, so they focused on Embarrassment: "Joe, you were a member of the Celtics (rookie season), you were also the leader of the Hawks, are you happy with your current performance and team status?"
"I'm grateful to have started my career at Celtic, because here I learned the essence of the Celtic spirit: 'Whatever it takes, we only strive for victory!'
Who said that athletes are simple-minded and have well-developed limbs?
Embarrassment's answer was full of wisdom and standard. He cleverly pointed out the sinister intentions of the Boston reporters, and also responded with the Celtics to fight back at all this, and the Hawks will not stand in the way of anything for the sake of victory.
At this time, sowing discord has no effect.
Ruan Erniu made a cameo appearance as the host of the scene with a smile on the side, and he said, "Okay!
