Chapter 299: The Final Fires
Before the East-West finals began, the league was quiet and peaceful. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
However, after the Pacers flew to Miami, Lance Stephenson spoke to ESPN.
Before the interview, Lance Stephenson put on a posture that I wouldn't answer whatever you asked, but the reporters didn't care, because they knew very well that the possibility of interviewing Lance Stephenson and pulling out the big news was too great.
The reporter from ESPN first asked Stephenson what he thought of the previous round, and lowered Lance Stephenson's vigilance a little.
Then, he asked their ultimate question: "The finals of the East and West have begun, Lance, which two teams do you think will meet in the finals?"
Lance Stephenson showed an expression that was indeed like this, and then he didn't stop: "East? ”
"And what about the West?"
"I'm bullish on the San Antonio Spurs in the West, they're going to beat the out of the Oakland people. ”
The ESPN reporter couldn't care less about the dirty words that came out of Lance Stephenson's mouth, because he found out that he had dug up a big news.
Lance Stephenson's prediction for the Finals quickly got out, via ESPN's report.
When the Warriors fans heard this, they scolded one after another, and Andrew Boggart, who has always been a big mouth, stood up first.
"He said the Spurs were going to beat us up with? Then I can only reply to him, you have the ability to beat the Miamins, and then we meet in the Finals and see if we beat them out of the!"
"What do you mean?" the reporter was stunned for a moment.
Boggart looked at the reporter like a fool and said, "I mean very simply, we're going to beat the San Antonio people easily, and then we're going to make it to the Finals, and we're going to beat the Pacers out of the if it's the Pacers!"
The reporter smiled secretly, he was stupid, he was clearly seducing Boggart and directly said the most important sentence.
After getting the first-hand information, the reporter left, and then the next day, Bogert's big nonsense appeared in the reports of major media outlets.
San Antonio, the Spurs, who were waiting for the arrival of the Warriors, ended a day of training.
Anxi swiped the news on his phone, and then swiped Boggart's response to Lance Stephenson.
He smiled and shook his head: "Brain is a good thing......"
"Don't blame them, who brought all these big mouths together?" Manu said with a smile after reading a few words from the side.
Tony Parker nodded: "Yes, that is, if we met us, if it was other teams, it would have been a long time ago, right?"
Anxi flipped down, and indeed turned out any news that was back from there: "That's right, someone has already responded from the Heat, and there has been a quarrel in the east......"
There was a lot of gunpowder in the East, but at this moment, LeBron James was crowned his fourth regular-season MVP and achieved his own great feat.
The league has also announced the best team and the best rookie team for the regular season.
Kevin Durant, LeBron James, Tim Duncan, Kobe Bryant and Chris Paul were named to the All-Purpose First Team, Carmelo Anthony, Blake Griffin, Marc Gasol, Tony Parker and Russell Westbrook were named to the All-Round Second Team, and Paul George, David Lee, Dwight Howard, James Harden and Dwyane Wade were named to the All-Purpose Third Team.
It is worth mentioning that the playoffs entered the Eastern and Western finals, and the best team had all three teams, and only LeBron James, Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Paul George and Dwyane Wade were still playing in the playoffs.
In the All-Rookie Team, Harrison Barnes, Bradley Beal, Anthony Davis, Damion Lillard and Dionvites were named to the All-Rookie First Team, while Andre Drummond, Michael Gilchrist, Kyle Singel, Jonas Valanciunas and Tyler Zeller were named to the All-Rookie Second Team.
And Harrison Barnes is the only one left in the playoffs.
The All-Defensive Team was also released, with Tony Allen, Sergi Ibaka, Anxi, Tyson Chandler and Joakin Noah named to the All-Defensive Team for the first team, and McConley, Paul Joe LeBron James, Tim Duncan and Marc Gasol for the All-Defensive Team Second Team.
Anxi was selected for the All-Defensive Team for a while, which is not surprising, after all, Anxi ranked second in the selection of the best defensive player.
However, there are still a lot of surprising places, such as Tony Allen squeezing LeBron James down, but it's normal to think about it, after all, Tony Allen is a pure defensive player and still has a certain advantage in the selection of the best defensive team.
And this award is voted on by all the head coaches in the league, so in a sense it is more fair than the best defensive player.
Of course, the most surprising thing about this year's All-Defensive Team is that Marc Gasol, the second-generation best defensive player, was not selected for the first team.
This has to make people question whether the head coach's vote is more fair, or the media's vote is more fair, on this point, there are different opinions, the big media, similar to ESPN, all think that the media's vote is more fair, but the commentators, especially those of retired players, feel that the head coach's vote is more fair.
In the midst of the noise, a new issue of Time Magazine was released.
On the big cover, an An Xi yelled to complete the dunk, the picture is exquisite, the action is beautiful, and the title of the cover is - Ten Questions for An Xi!
Then the next line of small print - 2012-2013 season of the best sixth man, the most improved player, the NBA three-point king, the dunk king.
Just looking at this line of small print, Anxi's enthusiasm this season is revealed, and in silence, he has actually gained so many honors, although none of these honors are very heavy, but they are all very valuable honors.
Anxi, who appeared on the cover of Time magazine for the first time, became popular, and on the big screen of Times Square in New York, USA, Anxi's promotional video also appeared, this promotional video was put by Jordan Sports, and obviously knew that Anxi was on the cover of Time Magazine, and directly followed the trend and pushed Anxi.
Anxi became popular all of a sudden, all over the United States, and all over the world.
While the playoffs were underway, Anxi was on fire.
However, within the NBA league, there is basically a discussion of Anxi, and even some reporters and media carefully studied the article Ten Questions about Anxi, and then sharpened their knives to find Anxi to question.
"What do you mean by a bunch of fake fans?"
An Xi also expected that there would be this day, he was affected a lot by Spurs, so he had already prepared in advance and refused all media reporters' interviews, An Xi knew very well that if he didn't respond, this matter would soon slowly get cold.
Although the outside world was turbulent, and reporters rushed over to find trouble with Anxi, but when Anxi did not respond directly, they were not good at staring at Anxi and starting to bite.
On the side of the United States, Anxi closed its doors to visitors, but in China, it was already a carnival.
Anxi closed his doors in the United States, and he didn't post any Twitter and Facebook, but he posted a Weibo to celebrate his appearance on the cover of Time Magazine, which immediately brought a lot of fans.
"Anxi is on Time Magazine, another sports figure in China on Time Magazine, I hope he will continue to work hard!"
"Time Magazine, honors other than sports, but this season's Anxi is really good, not to mention that I don't know, a dunk king, the most improved player, the best sixth man and the best defensive team. ”
"Upstairs, you forgot to steal the king. ”
"Last season was actually very good, All-Star Rookie Challenge MVP, three-point king, best rookie team first, best defensive team second team. ”
"Unconsciously, Anxi has been in the NBA for two seasons and has won a lot of honors, including a best rookie team for a while, a best defensive team for a second team, a best defensive team for a while, a fastest improved player, and a best sixth man!"
These are also being discussed in the forum, and they also summarized all the honors for Anxi up to his current position, which seems to be quite a lot, even more than Da Yao, who has retired.
This made Da Yao envious and called Anxi, expressing his envy, and then asked Anxi to continue to work hard.
It was in this atmosphere that the Western Conference Finals began.
Before the start of the Western Conference Finals, the Eastern Conference Finals kicked off first, and in Miami, the Heat drew the Pacers and then ended the game with a big win.
Lance Stephenson became a laughing stock, and the Heat and Pacers, who were noisy and angry, continued to quarrel after the game, and in a hurry, James even shouted the classic line: "I'm already thinking about the Finals!"
Compared with the Spurs and the Warriors, the Spurs and the Warriors are much quieter, although the Warriors Andrew Boggart and Draymond Green fired repeatedly, but no one responded from the Spurs at all, which gave the Warriors a feeling of punching cotton.
In the end, it was Stephen Curry who stepped up and said, "See you in the game." "Let the Warriors step down.
Before the start of the game, the Spurs were no different from usual, but the Warriors were holding back their strength.
Mark Jackson cheered up the Warriors with a "black to the bottom" straight in the locker room, and then fielded their regular starting lineup, point guard Stephen Curry, shooting guard Klay Thompson, small forward Harrison Barnes, power forward David Lee and center Andrew Boggett.
The Warriors' lineup, just looking at the books, is actually not weak, but a little younger, the lineup has outside super three-point shooters - Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson, as well as interior scorer David Lee, Klay Thompson and Harrison Barnes on the outside are still single defense players above the outside level, and Andrew Boggart on the inside is one of the few excellent centers in the league today.
In terms of the rationality of the lineup, it is stronger than the Thunder. (To be continued.) )
