Although Huang Yu ran to the idea of not violating the river water with the Lakers, it would be best if there was no conflict and anger some fans, but some people were provoked by reporters.

Just two days after the Mavericks' victory over the Trail Blazers, on April 29, after Game 6 of the first round between the Lakers and the Hornets, the Lakers eliminated the Hornets to enter the second round.

The day after the end of the game, Artest was asked in an interview and was annoyed, he was also unlucky, Huang Yu left this season Artest successfully occupied the position of starting small forward, However, the season's data performance generally averaged only 8.5 points per game, while Artest averaged only 11.8 points per game in the first round of the series, and Odom, the Lakers backup power forward who was widely criticized by the Los Angeles media, averaged 12 points per game, not to mention Huang Yu, who was squeezed out by him, with an average of nearly 30 points per game, which made Lakers fans angry at Kupchak! If Huang Yu is still with the Lakers, let alone the first place in the West this season, it is possible to have the first record in the league.

Although Huang Yu was not very friendly to the media when he was in Los Angeles, he rarely confronted him face-to-face, taunting a few words (Huang Yu made the system do everything on a trumped hacker fan), and Artest sprayed dirty words in private interviews, and often made nonsense in post-game interviews after losing, and even deducted a brain for reporters, saying that the media was over-publicized, putting pressure on the Lakers, and refusing to interview on the grounds of times.

If Huang Yu and the media in Los Angeles have a cold relationship, then Artest is hostile! When they can fall into the ground, the reporters will naturally not let it go.

So under the provocation of the media, Artest made a bold statement that he would seal Huang Yu's score in single digits in the series with the Mavericks!

----------

Of course, he regretted it after saying it! Huang Yu was crowned as another super shooter after entering the league, although he was banned for a long time in the second year, but after his return, he gave people a new feeling, increased the breakthrough with the ball, and the body gradually became stronger and stronger, and the low-post offense became stronger and stronger, after a season, fans gradually recognized Huang Yu, thinking that he can already be called a good scorer.

But after joining the Mavericks this year, his attacking talent has expanded significantly, easily winning the title of scoring champion in the regular season, leading the leisurely MVP list, and a rising super scorer.

How can such a player average only a single digit per game, if the Mavericks don't use it refrigerated, after the series, Artest will naturally escape, but the Mavericks' management and coaching staff will do this when they have brain cramps, even if Huang Yu and Cuban are jealous in the nightclub, Cuban will not give up!

Although Artest can have a lose-lose relationship with Huang Yu, that is, it caused a conflict in the first game of the series, and both of them were banned, but doing so is tantamount to self-destruction of the future, he knows very well what state he is, once he is suspended for a long time, it will not only affect the senses of the Lakers' top management, but also affect his own state, once he is bought out by the Lakers, then he can only find a bad team to go to the veteran's base salary, he is now less than 32 years old, and he will not leave the mainstream team so early.

Artest, who was in a dilemma, was bored, and could only vent his unhappiness on his flesh and bones, and the state of training for a few days was not very good, although Kobe Bryant saw it, just clicked it, and did not say deeply, after all, everyone is an adult, and they are responsible for what they have done.

----------

The Mavericks and Lakers game is on May 3, and before that the second round of the series, the remaining three groups of six teams have already battled each other.

The Grizzlies defeated the Thunder 114-101 on the road with the momentum of the Black Eight and won the home-court advantage! This made a group of commentators who ridiculed the grizzly bear run out of luck into a dilemma!

Although there are signs in the regular season, the Grizzlies currently have a lineup to restrain the Thunder, the Grizzlies have 3 wins and 1 loss in the four meetings in the regular season, although the Thunder have Perkins and Ibaka on the inside, but the black and white two bears are an important factor in winning the game, the four games of the regular season Black Bear Randolph averaged 26.5 points and 13 rebounds per game, and Durant scored 40 points in the game where the Thunder won.

This shows how important Durant's play is to the Thunder, but both sides are "young guards" composed of young players, and the pace on the court is very fast.

The Grizzlies continued their fighting spirit against the Spurs and firmly controlled the rebounds. After the opening, Randolph scored consecutive goals, and one person hit a wave of 7-4. After three minutes of the first quarter, the Grizzlies had no player other than Randolph score. In the first quarter, Randolph shot 4-of-4 and scored nine points alone. Durant scored eight points for the Thunder, but he had seven shots. With 1:02 left in the quarter, Durant hit a three-pointer to tie the score at 24-26, Gasol also scored a point, and the Grizzlies entered the second quarter with a four-point advantage.

Although Randolph's shooting rate dropped in the second quarter, the Thunder's shooting rate also plummeted, and the Grizzlies failed to score a point for 3 minutes under the Grizzlies' defense, and the Grizzlies stretched the difference to 13 points, and finally Durant missed the jumper, and Ibaka made a basket to open the embarrassing situation, but then Randolph made a three-pointer to expand the lead again, and the straight halftime break, the Thunder never narrowed the difference to less than 10.

----------

In the second half, although Durant hit a three-point shot at the beginning, and the Ibaka on the inside also caused Gasol Jr.'s foul and two free throws, the Thunder only had a chance to equalize or even overtake as long as they were in a blow, but the fast-breaking Ibaka was stealed by Tony Allen at a critical moment, and Randolph was fouled by Perkins when he was shooting, and he hit two free throws after hitting the free throw line.

Immediately after Connie steals again and the fast break is achieved, and then the Thunder's rebounding has problems, Randolph seized the opportunity to continue to grab offensive rebounds and score baskets, although Durant scored continuously and successfully narrowed the gap to 5 points, but at this time the veteran Battier stood up and helped the Grizzlies stop the bleeding with three points, and then Randolph and Gasol Jr. scored under the basket in a row, and the Grizzlies played a wave of 9-0 offensive again, and at the end of the third quarter, the Thunder trailed the Grizzlies by 13 points at 71-84, and at this time Randolph had 26 points and 10 rebounds.

The Thunder swept the Nuggets in the first round, which can be said to be very smooth, but I didn't expect the first game of the second round to become so difficult, although the Thunder fought back, but the Grizzlies, who were leading by a large score, were not impatient, every ball was close to the last few seconds to shoot, and the defense was never relaxed, and the tough defense made Durant shoot three non-sticks, although Harden hit a three-pointer at this time, but he ended the game with the invisibility of the whole court, and only got 5 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists in the whole game.

The Thunder looked at the big score difference at the last moment and was hopeless, so they simply changed to the bench and struggled, but the Grizzlies' bench was not bad, mainly because they had only 9 players on the team who could play, and the four substitutes were replaced by Sam Young!

In this way, the Thunder fell to the Grizzlies in the first game, losing home-court advantage.

----------

And the Eastern Conference Heat and Celtics are in a big fight.

While with the Cavaliers, James met the Celtics twice in the playoffs. Part of the reason he chose to play alongside Wade with the Heat was to beat the Celtics.

In an interview, James also said! I don't want to be beaten by the same team, and I don't want to let the same team send me home, so I joined the Heat.

This time James stood in front of the Celtics once, this time with Wade and Bosh by his side, the new "Big Three" of the Heat and the old "Big Three" of the Celtics met in a narrow way.

In such a hot game, a total of 5 T's were issued in the whole court without fighting, and the last question can be said to be the key to the Celtics' loss, although the referee seems to have sentenced each to play 50 boards, but the situation is extremely favorable to the Heat, Pierce was sent out by 2 T's, and Wade only has a T, which is not painful!

After the game, Rivers even ridiculed the referee on duty in the interview for blowing the whistle well, although the referee's whistle in the playoffs can be stricter, but when the players have an argument and do not have physical contact, they can be warned to stop, and if they can't do it, they can blow T! But the referee's intention is too obvious, and he didn't even give a warning directly to T! This couldn't help but make Rivers unhappy, but he also had to pay a price for his unhappiness, and the next day he was sent a fine of 2,000 US dollars by the alliance.

But then again, although this problematic blowing brought a hint of doubt to the Heat's victory, it is also true that James and cut 60 points, although Bosh only scored 7 points in this game, but also 12 rebounds are not.

----------

In the other game in the East, the Bulls lost to the Hawks at home, losing the first game of the second round and home-court advantage 95-103.

Both teams had important players injured in the first round, and the Bulls' Boozer injured his toe, but fortunately he has improved after a few days of rest and started today.

Hawks guard Hinrich has a hamstring strain and could be sidelined for the entire series. The former Bulls player faced his former club for the first time in the playoffs but was unable to play, with Teague starting in his place.

Although there are fewer generals, the Eagles are aggressive after the opening. Teague hit his first shot to score the first point of the game as the Eagles started on a 9-0 run. The Bulls missed consecutive shots, and it took five minutes of the game before Lore Deng scored on a breakaway jumper.

Rose was in no shape under the key marking, and lost all 7 shots in the first quarter and did not score a point. After successfully limiting the opposing number one, the Hawks took a double-digit advantage to end the first quarter 28-18.

Although Rose began to score in the second quarter, the crosshairs were still not there, and the breakthrough road was guarded by the Hawks, and Rose only scored 5 points in the first half of the second quarter, and thanks to the play of other players, the Bulls were able to fall behind by 1 point after halftime.

In the second half, Rose's state seemed to have picked up, hitting 3 shots in 4 minutes, which also made the Hawks have to change some defensive strategies against him, but if he defends Rose to shoot, he is bound to make sacrifices elsewhere, but just when Rose seized the opportunity, he broke through to the basket in a row, or attracted attention to passing, it can be said that a Rose fell, and the entire Bulls were also revitalized, and the two teams were evenly matched into the fourth quarter.

However, the Eagle King suddenly broke out in the fourth quarter, and after opening a three-point shot, he led the Eagles to play a wave of 15-4 attacks, and then after a circle, the Eagle King made a comeback again, hitting consecutive three-point shots to expand the difference! Although Rose interrupted the Hawks' offense with a burst shot, and sent a series of wonderful passes to narrow the difference to single digits, but Smith and Crawford hit consecutive shots, although Rose and Korver hit three points in succession in the last 2 minutes, but unfortunately it was too late, and the Bulls lost the first game of the second round at home.

"Is it appropriate for the renewal negotiations to drag on like this?"

Bill Duffy said as he watched the game in front of him at Huang Yu's home in Los Angeles.

The Mavericks arrived in Los Angeles on May 2nd, while Huang Yu took a leave of absence with Carlisle to go home, as long as he returned to the hotel by 12 o'clock.

"It's okay, trust them to know what I mean! To be honest, I myself know that I don't stay long from being traded to the Mavericks, and having a strong boss is something I don't like! ”

Huang Yu pouted! Cuban has always been a businessman, although he treats the Mavericks players well, but he is also a divider, a few years ago the Mavericks had an absolute chance to stabilize the championship, but was demolished by Cuban! And pulling Huang Yu to the Mavericks is just to attract firepower to Nowitzki, after all, although the Mavericks have been a regular in the playoffs in the past two years, they have been inactive, and fans also have a lot of opinions.

So he tried every possible way to communicate with Bill Duffy and operated Huang Yu to Dallas, but maybe the two of them were born to be at odds with each other, starting from Kuban's own initiative to sell him a villa, the two of them may not be destined to have any good results.

Kuban's desire to control is too strong, and Huang Yu is a person who secretly doesn't like other people's preaching, otherwise it would be impossible to earn a basic salary as an otaku at home, and the two of them can be said to have different ideas from the beginning.

----------

"Is it really only this one season?"

Carlisle put down the phone and said helplessly.

Just now Cuban personally called to tell Carlisle to increase the time for Huang Yu to play.

After coaching for a few years, Carlisle naturally knows what Cuban meant, and if he increases his playing time, he will definitely be traded in the offseason! Although Cuban said on the phone that Huang Yu's transfer Carlisle can participate, in other words, you can exchange Huang Yu for anyone of equal value.

However, Carlisle was uncomfortable for a while, although it was a pity that he couldn't train a superstar in his hands, but at least Cuban gave him the right to choose, which means that as long as the trade is successful, then the Mavericks' combat effectiveness next season will not be weak.

You must know that Huang Yu is the scoring champion, although there is only one session, but this season's MVP is likely to be Huang Yu's, which may be able to attract many teams, so the players who are exchanged are not bad even if they are just super sixth men, although the strength is too bad, but it should not affect the defense of the title.

Huang Yu wanted to know what he thought, and only laughed at him for being too naïve, the alliance can say that one radish tops a pit! Most of the qualitatively cultivated young players are almost the cornerstone of the bad team, and the successors of the strong team will be easily put on the shelf! The Super Sixth Man is lacking on every team, so it's nice to be able to switch to a pack.

And next season is halted due to labor negotiations, the Mavericks are in tatters, and defending the title is just a matter of thinking.

The calf is not destined to grow! After all, there is simply no way to replace Nowitzki's position in the Mavericks, and there is also a strong and wayward boss!
