When the Spurs defeated the Lakers on the road and became the first team to reach the division finals after the Pacers and Trail Blazers, perhaps because there were no other games, the day after the Spurs-Lakers game, the Spurs and Lakers tie-break made the headlines in almost all the sports sections of the media.

"The perfect individual performance, the ultimate teamwork, the Lakers and Spurs, the best series of the season."

"Sharks vs Stone Tower, Tim Duncan, who lacks David Robinson, leads the team to eliminate the Lakers, the strongest interior matchup, each has its own merits"

"Having another triple-double, a one-round series, 55 in a single game, and two consecutive triple-doubles, following the slump in the previous round, Meng Xu finally proved himself to be the best rookie of the season and deserved."

"The arrogant Phil Jackson abandoned Glen Les, the queen bee, and eventually led to the Lakers being reversed by the Spurs." There is no doubt that this must be the headline of the New York Times, when the game between the Spurs and the Lakers has just ended, the New York Times has begun to black Phil Jackson, so under the leadership of the New York Times, almost all the New York media have aimed their guns at Phil Jackson, but what is a little surprising is that many Chicago media have also joined in, and they have been crazy about Phil Jackson, and even those old sesame rotten grains when he coached the Bulls have turned out.

In the playoffs every year, there are always some players who will never worry about their entire careers because of their performance in one round of games, and this is the case with Meng Xu in this series, Meng Xu, who only averaged 5.3 points and 8 rebounds per game in the last round and the Suns, averaged 14.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, 7 assists, 4.3 steals, and 2.1 blocks per game in 7 games with the Lakers. No matter how Meng Xu performs next season, it is certain that after Meng Xu's contract with the Spurs ends, there will be many teams that are willing to give Meng Xu a lucrative contract.

And after the tie-break with the Lakers, due to the use of the magic potion, as in the previous game, after the game, Meng Xu once again obtained additional attributes, a total of 5 backcourt rebounds, 3 steals, 2 judgments, a total of 1o additional attribute point rewards, and now Meng Xu's ability evaluation has reached 79, which is only a line away from reaching the B-level star level in the system.

Just when Meng Xu was still excited to reach the Western Conference Finals, the first thing Vecchi did when he returned to San Antonio was to get into the video room and stay up all night with assistant coach Mike Budenholzer to study how to deal with the Trail Blazers. Because the opponent of the Spurs Western Conference Finals is far more difficult than the Lakers, if you talk about pure paper strength, the Trail Blazers, who are all All-Stars on the bench, are much stronger than the Lakers, and more importantly, the Trail Blazers' style of play is extremely restrained by the Spurs, especially the Spurs' outside four, facing Scottie Pippen, Damon Studmeier, Steve Smith, these All-Star outside lines, are basically beaten all the way. In all four meetings this season, the Spurs have lost all of them without a temper, and this is still the Spurs with the twin towers of Duncan and David Robinson. Although the Lakers have now been eliminated in a thrilling way, the Spurs without David Robinson can avoid the fate of being swept by the Trail Blazers. But as a Vicky, it is naturally not as simple as not being swept by the Trail Blazers, defeating the Trail Blazers, reaching the Finals, and defending the championship is Vicky's goal.

But it is not so easy to beat the Trail Blazers, at the end of the season in order to avoid the Trail Blazers in the playoffs, Vicky selectively released several games, otherwise he would not be reversed by the Jazz in the end, and because of this, the Spurs have no home court advantage since the second round of the playoffs, and this is precisely the biggest slight trend of the Spurs in this round of games, facing their nemesis team, there is no home court advantage, these two alone, it is already a huge gap.

After trading Scottie Pippen from the Rockets this season, Mike Dunwilly seems to have found a way to pinch together a large number of All-Star players, this season's Trail Blazers have played their best record in recent years, and in the playoffs, whether it is the Timberwolves in front or the Jazz in the back, they have not been able to cause the Trail Blazers the slightest trouble, although the Timberwolves are only ranked seventh in the West, but the Timberwolves have a burst of Kevin Garnett, and Wallis Zebiak, Trill Brandon, Sam Mitchell, Anthony Piller, Joe Smith and other teams of fierce players, but the Timberwolves have almost no power to fight back against the Trail Blazers. The Jazz is the third in the West this season, only 3 fewer wins than the Trail Blazers in the regular season, but the Jazz lost more simply than the Timberwolves in the face of the Trail Blazers, basically every game is a big score, and the only one won is still relying on the magic of Karl Malone and Stockton, otherwise the Jazz who won 58 in the regular season is likely to be swept by the Trail Blazers.

According to the league's latest schedule, the first game between the Spurs and the Trail Blazers will be played on May 2o, US time, according to the news from Su Qun yesterday, due to Meng Xu's Spurs team's excellent performance in the playoffs, at the request of the majority of domestic fans, the CCAV decided to broadcast the Western Conference Finals of the Spurs and Trail Blazers live throughout the whole process, you must know that in the past, the Netba Finals, the few remaining games are also All-Star games and Christmas games.

On May 17, 2ooo, the last game of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Heat vs. the Knicks at the Heat's home American Airlines Center as scheduled, after experiencing last season's black 8, this season's Heat was pushed to the edge of the cliff by the Knicks again, this season's Miami Heat, ranked 2nd in the East, in the face of their sworn enemy, the Knicks, ranked 7th in the East, the first 6 games of the two teams were 3-3, the two teams from the beginning, you win one, I win one, And the score difference in each game is very small. The two teams' tie-break battle is also as anxious as ever, the first 3 quarters of the game between the two teams tied at 65, after entering the final quarter, under the strong defensive scale, the Knicks and the Heat are almost going to smash the basket, with the sound of the frame of the iron, the score of the two teams has always been maintained within 3 points, and finally relying on the shooting of the madman Latris Prewell at a critical moment, the Knicks defeated the Heat 83-82, following the black 8 of the previous year, the Knicks, who ranked seventh this season, once again hacked the second-ranked Heat.

And this round of the series between the Heat and the Knicks, it is not an exaggeration to call it the most tragic series in recent years, the largest point difference in 7 games is only 7 points, the average number of fouls per game between the two teams has reached 24, and players have been sent off every game, especially in the second game of the series, the two teams have a total of 6o fouls and a total of 75 free throws.
