The Celtics have easily advanced for two consecutive rounds, which has turned the media's perception of them a little upside down, and these people no longer insist that the shortcomings of the roster will make it difficult for the Celtics, of course, they always have a point, and this series of games and his excellent Shi Lei have become the best shield. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Averaged 27.5 points, 8.4 rebounds and 5 assists per game, ranked first in NBA efficiency in the second round of the playoffs, and Shi struggled to make up for the impact of Garnett's injury!"

"Standing in the Eastern Conference Finals again, the Celtics should remember this young man!"

"He is always able to stand up, at any time, anywhere!"

"His calm is a silent volcano!"

But this did not affect Shi Lei's life, he was still doing what he had to do, he knew that under the premise of no victory, all this was just a flower in the mirror. And he didn't think they should be proud at this point!

The weather in Boston is very hot right now, and because of its proximity to the ocean, summer here always comes a little later, but when it does, it can be painful for those who like the outdoors.

Shi Lei sat on a recliner near the windowsill, with a stack of neatly arranged materials on top of the small sill. This is all the data analysis data of the two teams in the game between the Magic and the Cavaliers, as well as the offensive and defensive shooting percentage statistics of the two teams in each time period, etc. Since last year's formation of his own training team, Shi Lei after the holiday, according to the work of the personnel, selectively retained a part, these people's usual work, in addition to helping Shi Lei train, the biggest role is to help Shi Lei analyze the data, provide him with the information he needs.

Well, the labor cost is quite expensive, but it is definitely worth the money. With the help of these materials at hand, Shi Lei already has some ideas about what he will do in the next series of games, such as the need for him to focus on defending Tekoglu......

However, it seems that there is still a long time before the start of the division finals.

In the fifth game between the Cavaliers and the Magic that just ended, the Cavaliers, who had the home court advantage, finally failed to defeat the Magic, James scored a game-high 37 points, the most 14 rebounds in the game, but still lost to the Magic, who had too much advantage on the inside, with a score of 102:112, the Magic won the crucial fifth game, thus gaining the upper hand on the road to promotion with a score of 3:2.

In the West, the Nuggets who traded to Billups this season have played well, and although they will only play their fifth game against the Mavericks tonight, they have won three of the previous four games, and the path to promotion is basically clear.

On the contrary, the Lakers, who are considered the biggest favorites to win the championship this year, are in trouble in the second round.

The Rockets, who have not been able to break through the first round of the "curse" for many years, finally avoided their old enemy Sir this year, but they did not expect it to be out of control, and the upward momentum is deeply surprising.

In the first game between the two sides against the Lakers on the road, the Rockets, led by Yao Ming's double-doubles, forced the Lakers and won the first victory of this series.

Well, in fact it has a lot to do with the Lakers' aristocratic urine.

The Lakers have been resting for a week, and after the opening game, they couldn't adapt to the intense pace of the game, and they couldn't keep their spirits up. The Lakers did not wrap Yao Ming, nor did they go around, Yao Ming certainly did not miss such an opportunity, as soon as he came on the court, he beat Bynum, causing him to foul, two free throws and two hits, and then he hooked in front of Bynum, and one person scored the first 4 points of the Rockets. After three minutes of play, Bynum went off the game with two fouls.

Since the beginning of this season, Bynum has grown rapidly, and has replaced Odom as the last part of the "triangle strategy".

Another person who has to be mentioned is "President" Battier, really because of his strict defense of Kobe, so that the Rockets took a 7-point lead in the first quarter.

If the first game between the two sides is the story of Diaosi counterattacking and beating Gao Fushuai, it is the second game, which is the script of Gao Fushuai slapping his face.

The loss in the first game at home left the Lakers with a disgraced face. In today's game, the Lakers said that they would win anything, and Kobe Bryant attacked wildly as soon as he came on the court, and he shot 7 of 11 in the first quarter, and one of them scored 15 points. The firepower of the Lakers was astonishing, and although the Rockets also played at a high level, they were still quickly at a disadvantage, falling behind by 15 points at one point. The Lakers shot 16-of-22 in the first quarter and led 39-25 in the first quarter.

However, the Rockets were still quite strong in this game, and with 3:57 left in the second quarter, Artest hit a shot, and the Rockets hit a wave of 10:0 to exceed 49:48 in one fell swoop, which was their first lead in the game. The Lakers didn't score a point in four minutes, and their double-digit advantage came to naught. With a three-pointer from Bryant at the end of the quarter, the Lakers pulled the score to 57-57 at halftime.

But after that, Yao Ming fell into foul trouble, and not long after the third quarter, he ate his fourth personal foul and had to sit on the sidelines again. At the critical moment, Artest, who had a problem with brain circuits, jumped out again and gave the rocket a fatal blow.

Artest was also in good shape, hitting two three-pointers in front of Kobe Bryant in the third quarter, and the Rockets once chased the score to 74:79. With 6:57 left in the fourth quarter, Artest was elbowed by Kobe Bryant, and when he reasoned with him, he received a second technical foul and was sent off. After losing two of the most important players in a row, the Rockets finally stopped their good momentum of chasing points and allowed the Lakers to successfully pull back a game on their home court.

Then in the third game of the game between the two sides, Artest made a new contribution for the Lakers. Artest was whistled for a foul with less than a minute left and ejected. It doesn't really matter if he dies or not, the important thing is that at this critical juncture, he gave the Lakers two free throws and gave the ball away. After the Lakers hit a free throw and hit the offense, they opened up an eight-point lead that opened up the scorching score, and the Rockets were unable to close the gap to within eight points and accepted defeat at home.

However, after Artest was banned for his irrationality, Yao Ming, who had been a little silent, finally went against the wind in a low-key manner, and achieved the role of the core star of the team who resisted the fate of a team on his shoulders.

In fact, Yao Ming was already injured at this time, okay...... It's not fake this time, he's not Shi Lei's slut.....

In the early morning of May 11, domestic time, the Rockets surprisingly defeated the Lakers 99-87 at home in the absence of the main player Artest, and tenaciously pulled the big score to 2:2.

In the first game of Artest's absence, Yao Ming erupted like a volcano. Yao Ming had 28 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists, and single-handedly blew up the Lakers' two All-Star interior lines. "Little Black Bean" Aaron. Brooks easily set a new playoff high, scoring 24 points and diarring out four assists on 4-of-9 three-point shooting. Battier also became an offensive giant, scoring 23 points. Lowry 12 points. Louis. Scola had 11 points and 14 rebounds.

In the face of the crippled Rockets, the Lakers became unable to play, and the Rockets were like trapped beasts forced into a corner, fighting against the water. Yao Ming made a layup as soon as he started, and then Battier hit back-to-back shots, including a three-pointer, and Scola also hit a shot, and the Rockets started the game 9-0. The Lakers played 3:30 before Kobe Bryant hit two shots, but Yao Ming immediately assisted Battier for a three-pointer, and with 5:30 left in the quarter, the Rockets had already taken a double-digit advantage at 19:4. The Lakers had only Kobe Bryant score in the first seven minutes. Battier became the Rockets' number one offensive point, shooting 3-of-3 from three-point range in the first quarter and scoring 12 points in the first quarter, and the Rockets ended the quarter with a 29-16 lead.

The Lakers were given a blow to the head and never came back to their senses, while the Rockets became more and more courageous, and even Lakers veteran Cook shot three points in this quarter. With 7:14 left in the quarter, Yao Ming scored 3 points on consecutive free throws, and the Rockets led by 19 points at 41:22. The Lakers managed to close the gap to 12 points, but were slaughtered by Battier's three-pointer, and after the quarter, the Lakers trailed 36-54.

Artest and Maddie watched from the sidelines in suits, and they saw Yao Ming's perfect play in the third quarter. In this quarter, Yao Ming was like a divine help, shooting 6 of 7, including still three-pointers, and scored 14 points in a single quarter. Under his impact, the rocket rapidly expanded, constantly widening the gap. With 6:57 left in the quarter, Yao Ming hit a three-pointer to give the Rockets a 67-40 lead. The Rockets failed to shoot for nearly three minutes after that, but Brooks helped the Rockets regain their sense with a three-pointer. Before the end of the quarter, Brooks received Yao Ming's inside second pass and dunk in the air, and shot the whistle ball, and the Rockets led by 29 points at 83:54 into the fourth quarter.

The Lakers started the fourth quarter with a wave of 13:2, chasing the score to 67:85, Yao Ming made a layup and caused a foul at the critical moment, and scored 3 points with free throws, and then Brooks broke through to score a layup, and the Rockets scored 5 points in a row to regain a 23-point advantage. The Rockets then failed to score for four minutes, and the Lakers scored 10 straight points to tie the score at 77:90 with 2:49 left in the game.

It was Yao Ming who drew a foul with 2:48 left in the game, hitting two free throws, and Battier hit two free throws after that, giving the Rockets a 94-79 lead with 1:34 left in the game.

The Lakers then closed the gap to 12 points, but failed to complete the comeback and reluctantly accepted the defeat.

This is Yao Ming's most representative game in the playoffs, but it has also become a masterpiece. After the game, Yao Ming, who was limping on his legs, was immediately sent to the hospital, and then the news of Yao Ming's playoff reimbursement came.

However, the unfortunate fate has never been the reason why the Warriors gave up their inner pursuit, and in the fifth game between the two sides, they still left the Lakers with an unforgettable lesson, although they failed to win in the end!

Without Yao Ming, the road to the Rockets is becoming more and more difficult, and two victories are already considered a success.

The Lakers paid the price for their arrogance, and even the famous "Magic" Johnson began to criticize the Lakers, and the Lakers did not dare to be careless. So the Lakers started with strength, but what is surprising is that the Rockets can be called a stubborn block!

The Lakers started the game with an 11-4 run. Kobe Bryant began to exert his strength, constantly shooting and hitting, and the Lakers gradually exceeded the score. With 3:36 left in the quarter, the two sides were tied at 20:20, and Kobe Bryant then hit consecutive shots, and Odom also scored a three-pointer, and the Lakers ended the quarter with a 15-4 wave to take a double-digit advantage of 35-24 in one fell swoop. Bryant scored 12 points in the quarter.

But at the beginning of the second quarter, the Rockets immediately closed the gap to three points with a wave of 8:0. Although the Rockets ran into trouble in the second half of the game, allowing the Lakers to re-extend the margin to nine points, the Lakers still did not dare to be careless.

This saved them!

With the Rockets' lineup, it's almost impossible to turn the tables around. In fact, all the impossible things in the world, and more reasons, are mostly due to premature abandonment, and luckily the Rockets did not do it.

After the start of the third quarter, the regrouped Rockets began to attack aggressively, taking advantage of the Lakers' slightly lax defense, in the middle of the game, they erased the score and stopped the Lakers in one fell swoop. But that's all it looks like, the rocket is missing the decisive character at the critical moment after all.

Bryant re-entered the game, hitting all three of his first three shots, once again leading the Lakers to pull the gap away and enter the fourth quarter with a seven-point lead.

But the Rockets have done enough, and rarely, to the satisfaction of most of the fans who support them. Especially domestic fans, they can't help but send out a lot of "ifs"!

"What if Yao Ming is healthy?"

"If Artest can calm down the end of the rocket?"

"If only Maddie could be less obsessive....."

Of course, all kinds of "ifs" are followed by a happy ending, so in many people's "dreams", the Celtics and the Rockets staged a dragon battle on the stage of the finals this season.

However, everything is far from that simple, and even if it is true, they still have to go through a lot of tribulations before this encounter collides.

Now the ordeal of the Celts is coming!

In the following days, the Magic and the Cavaliers played two more big games, and in the sixth game between the two sides, the Cavaliers won at home, bringing the score to a 3-3 draw, but in the seventh game, after returning to their home court, the Magic quickly got rid of the shadow of defeat. The initiative to change the lineup, from the original outside-in offensive method, to the inside-out tactics, which caught the Cavaliers off guard, allowing the Magic to gain an 11-point lead in the first quarter.

This match also touched the hearts of the Celtics, and in the end, they also had to accept the fact that the most restrained Magic became their opponent in the semifinals.

The ordeal came, and Shi Lei threw all the tactical information into the garbage basket because he was ready!
