"The Knicks are close to the Finals for the second year in a row, and the Orange have a chance to win back-to-back championships. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

After winning his first championship in his second season, Hugo led the Knicks back to the championship this year. They finished first in the league during the regular season. In the playoffs, facing the young 76ers in the first round, the Knicks easily overtook their opponents 4-0. In the second round, facing the Pacers, who won last season, the Knicks replicated their previous sweep; In the Eastern Conference Finals, the Knicks once again encountered the sniping of the old rival Heat, although James played top performances in four games one after another, Wade and Bosh also played well in key games, but the overall strength of the defending champions, this time did not give the old opponent half a chance to win, the Knicks defeated the powerful Big Three in four games in a row, and still defeated the Miami Heat with a 4-0 sweeping record, and advanced to the finals again in an almost humiliating way.

"Wade is anticlimactic, and lightning has fallen to its peak."

In this year's playoffs, Wade's performance has been up and down, although he can occasionally play the role of the Heat's offensive vanguard, sharp breakthroughs are still one of the main signs of the Heat's defense, such as Wade in the fourth game of the Eastern Conference Finals gave the Knicks a blow in the first half, and successively used his sharp breakthroughs and accurate shots to overwhelm the Knicks' defense.

But the problem is that such performances are becoming less and less common in this year's playoffs, and they don't last long enough for the Heat to win against their opponents, and the most puzzling thing is that the good start on the offensive end has not only not made Wade calm, but has shown obvious impatience. In the third quarter, Wade began to make consecutive mistakes, facing the result of being swept away, perhaps feeling the pressure to win the game, Wade's offense became reckless and impatient, especially in the fourth quarter. In contrast to James's excessive calmness, if Wade was like a fire yesterday, then James is like an ice cube, and we have seen him hesitate to face Battier one-on-one, and finally choose to pass the ball in the face of gains and losses.

The confrontation between the two sides in the fourth quarter became more intense, the score was also very tight, Wade's shooting rate at the stalemate moment was not good, although James hit a few key shots, but the little emperor's hesitation will still appear, these two people played after the final score equalized and were obviously not as domineering as the Holy Sect Master, especially Hugo's sentence "Don't worry, leave it to me" reflects the confidence of the Holy Sect Master to dare to take responsibility, and this sentence has also become the hottest discussion word in the world today.

"The NBA will belong to Hugo."

The previous generation of kings will grow old sooner or later, and the transfer of royal power is imperative. Just like Michael Jordan's retirement that year, Duncan, O'Neal, Kobe Bryant and other superstars took over. Now, the NBA is at this transition again. The 34-year-old Kobe Bryant is old, the 28-year-old James is no longer young, the 24-year-old Durant is not honorable, and the future NBA is destined to belong to Hugo who is only 23 years old.

We recognize the strength of James and Durant, but one of them has lost twice to the Holy Sect and has not won a championship for nine years; Although the latter still has a chance to challenge, the honor of the Holy Sect Master is no longer comparable to Durant, even in terms of age.

Durant now has to eliminate the Spurs and beat the Knicks in the Finals to have a chance to catch up. But once he loses to Hugo in the finals this time, then it can be announced that the Holy Sect Master is only one step away from the "God of Basketball", and once his three-consecutive championship hegemony is achieved next year, the new god of the NBA will come again!

"The best player in the NBA may turn down the Dream Ten invitation again!"

Just when the media in the United States are kneeling to Emperor Wu, there are always some people who will find some black spots to disgust the Holy Sect Master. Yahoo Sports is one of the leading big brothers, but they found the right entry point this time, don't look at public opinion, this will praise Wu Huang, but there are still a lot of people who don't like him, but this will be Wu Huang's limelight, so the negative voices are hidden for the time being, but as soon as they get the excuse to hack him, many people who are following the trend and licking their knees will immediately turn their faces and deny people.

The black spot given to them by Yahoo Sports is very good, Wu Huang has turned down two invitations to the dream team, and even Lao K has publicly stated at last year's World Championships that he is willing to use Wu Huang as the core to select the lineup, but Wu Huang still did not give face.

This time, the old K coach still did not change his original intention, the United States prepared for the 2012 London Olympics Dream Ten team, the first to invite was Wu Huang, and still promised to take him as the core to select the players, and the tactical play will also be shaped by him as the core. This is almost the same treatment as Jordan back then, so Wu Huang also feels very embarrassed now, if he continues not to give face, the pressure of public opinion will be too great.

The Chinese team is also actively doing work, but unfortunately, according to the latest naturalization policy, although Wu Huang can be naturalized in China, he can only represent China in international competitions after three years, and it is impossible to participate in the London Olympics in the summer. But three years later, Yao Ming should have retired, and even if he doesn't retire, he can't be his helper anymore, so it is very likely that he will fight alone at that time, and this is what Emperor Wu is not very willing to do, he is not so kind to lead the team to go alone.

Besides, although he prefers to join the Chinese team in his heart, in this way, he will suffer more public opinion pressure in the United States, and even the league will no longer support him, so Wu Huang has always stated that he will not join any national team.

But now this statement can no longer be stopped, and now the pressure on public opinion is increasing, including a large number of his European and American fans have also kept leaving messages on his website and Twitter, saying that they want to see him participate in the Olympics. So this matter can't drag on, he has said before that he will announce his decision after the finals, and temporarily put things back for a while, but sooner or later he still has to make a decision.

At this time, Wu Huang actually has no choice, don't look at his fame can now stabilize James and Kobe, but if he continues to refuse to play on the Dream Team, many fans will have opinions about him, including New York fans will also have a separation from him, and it is not a joke to be fearful, after all, he always has to eat in the NBA, Asian fans and Chinese fans will not help him much at this time, and it is an inevitable result to compromise.

The Knicks swept the Heat to advance, and most of the current public opinion is still focused on how to praise Emperor Wu, "Black" is just a small group of ignorant and fearless people who have the courage to grandstand, at least before the end of the finals, no one will really attack Emperor Wu with this, after all, he didn't say that he wouldn't participate in Dream Ten.

The battle between the Thunder and the Spurs on Tianwang Mountain began quietly under the media's overwhelming report that the Knicks had advanced to the Finals and the sound of various tricks licking and kneeling Wu Huang......

In the first two games of the series, Ginobili played super efficient as a substitute, scoring 20+ points in two consecutive games. However, in the third and fourth games, the Thunder clearly made adjustments to the Spurs' lineup, and Manu was in a slump for two consecutive games, scoring only 8 points on 1-of-5 shooting and 13 points on 4-of-7 shooting, respectively.

Spurs head coach Popovich was fully aware of this, so he put Ginobili in the starting position for this game.

As for the manager's adjustments, Ginobili doesn't seem to be fully ready. Shortly after the start of the game, Ginobili steals Sephorosa, but it is immediately turned into a mistake by Westbrook. However, against Sephorosa, Ginobili had a clear advantage, and he soon drew two free throws from the foul and then grabbed a defensive rebound. Despite being a slight height disadvantage compared to Sephorosa, Ginobili is far superior to Sefrosa in speed and agility.

After that, Ginobili played more and more smoothly, assisting his teammates to shoot and score, and even piggyback on Durant's pass and steal. Judging from the confrontation in the first quarter, Sephorosa was no match for Ginobili at all, and the Thunder did not have the spare manpower to assist him in defending Manu. Before Ginobili left the break in the first quarter, the Spurs took a 15-10 lead. And within minutes of Manu's departure, the Thunder quickly hit a climax to overtake the score. But Ginobili, who was back on the court, quickly came into play, grabbing offensive rebounds and hitting a follow-up shot to help the Spurs score the final two points of the first quarter.

Ginobili's all-around performance didn't seem to attract much attention from the Thunder, and they still let Sefrosa defend Ginobili in the second quarter, and the result was a heavy price.

Not long after the start of the second quarter, Ginobili grabbed an offensive rebound and made a foul on Sefrosa to make it 2+1. Just half a minute later, Ginobili drew another foul on Sefrosa to the free-throw line. Before the end of the second quarter, Ginobili also contributed a three-point shot.

Despite Ginobili's excellent performance, there is still a big risk for Coach Bobo's change of formation.

Why? Because Manu has always been a substitute, as a habitual lineup with a sudden change of play, it is likely that the overall feeling will not be found. Even though the Spurs decisively attacked the Thunder's interior through Manu and Parker at the beginning, and caused a foul on the Thunder Ibaka, leading the score on the court, it could not curb the comprehensiveness of the Thunder's offense. Immediately afterwards, the Thunder decisively called a timeout, and then the fans quickly discovered that the Thunder also consciously broke through the Spurs' interior line, and caused a foul on the big man Duncan and went off the court.

In the second half, Ginobili continued to put pressure on the Thunder from the outside, and back-to-back three-point shots forced the Thunder to call a short timeout. With Ginobili's back-to-back scoring, the Spurs also reversed the passive situation of falling behind. But the Thunder's timeout adjustment obviously had no effect on Ginobili, and soon Manu blossomed inside and outside to score five points in a row.

For most of the third quarter, Ginobili became the Spurs' leading attacker, scoring 13 points in less than three minutes.

But after Ginobili went off the break, the Spurs were once again taken the lead by the Thunder hitting a counter-attacking climax.

At this time, you can see the gap in overall strength, the Thunder team can play more than the Spurs, and the main force can also play more time on the court, these two advantages are the hurdles that the Spurs can't get around, and in terms of firepower continuity, the Spurs still fall behind, which makes them unable to beat the Thunder team.

The third quarter became an exhibition game for Manu alone, but it was not enough to stop the Thunder from scoring, because Adu was also performing, the same three points, plus a whistle shot, the Thunder still had a 9-point advantage after three quarters, and they were leading instead. It is worth mentioning that at the end of the third quarter, the Spurs did a bad job, not only did not bite the score, but also allowed the Thunder to quickly stretch the score to 9 points, which was a losing third quarter.

The fourth quarter was a surprise for the Spurs, although Harden played a 3+1 as soon as he came up, stretching the score to 13 points at one point, but then the Spurs took advantage of Wei Shao's consecutive missed shots and mistakes, and returned an 11:0, and the Spurs only trailed by 2 points when there was more than 1 minute left in the game.

Ginobili still showed great courage in the final quarter, and in the last 22 seconds of the game, Ginobili's layup won the Spurs a chance to equalize. Sadly, in the most important round that followed, Ginobili ran out of space and received a pass from a teammate, but failed to shoot the equalizing three-pointer, leaving a huge regret for his perfect performance.

I have to say that although Wu Huang's previous sarcasm did not make Wei Shao himself have too much influence, many neutral fans were affected by him, especially today's Wei Shao almost became a sinner who lost the game in the last quarter, which made many neutral fans start to turn black, Wu Huang's hand suppression is really beautiful, but it is also very black!

But just when people thought that the Spurs would achieve an ultimate reversal, Harden, the most consistent guy in the Thunder team in this year's playoffs, a three-point piercing heart, the Spurs fell behind by 5 points in a blink of an eye, and the game was basically over.

Popovich lost to the real Thunder this time, and there was no unexpected high score from Ibaka and Perkins in this game, but the Thunder three young people collectively contributed 70 points, which is a real Thunder, and the offensive mode they are used to is three arrows in unison.

Durant is still the scorer at key moments in the fourth quarter today, Harden is still the rhythm controller at critical moments, and Wei Shao still makes brainless mistakes at critical moments, but such a Thunder is back on a trajectory, but this is a new Thunder, they have Collison and Sephorosa These powerful players at key moments, plus Ibaka and Perkins' strong defensive ability, this is exactly what the Thunder need.

And for the current Spurs, it seems that they no longer have the flashy offense they used to have, Duncan's threat has become less powerful, Parker has no mid-range, and can only rely on throwing himself off the court again and again, and the Spurs have become the thunder of the first two games overnight.

Maybe the mentality can really affect a player, including a team with super strong mental qualities like the Spurs.

Popovich may have run out of ammunition when the game got to this point, he couldn't find a real solution to the problem, those quick rotations didn't seem like a good way to go, and the disadvantage of such a change was that the other players of the Spurs could only play at once, and in the end they had to rely on Manu and Jackson, and even Duncan disappeared for a while.

Of course, the failure of the Spurs highlights the strength of the Thunder team, even if Parker throws himself off the court again and again, even if Manu hits life-saving three-pointers again and again, even if the veteran Jackson shoots surprise three-pointers again and again, even if Duncan's signature hit the life-saving board, but these are not enough to take down the Thunder, a Thunder team that plays all its strength is very terrible, and the Spurs must use everyone's energy to pass, but they didn't do it.

The Spurs lost this time, Barkley may be happy, Parker scored 20 points in the game, and surpassed Charles Barkley (2833 points) in his career playoff total (2844 points), but he suffered a "mileage tragedy", only 5 of 14 shots, and in the face of the Thunder's strict defense, his shooting hand is still not good.

After watching this game, Wu Huang felt that if nothing else, the Thunder team would definitely target Parker in the same way after he advanced, although he didn't think it would have any effect, but the French were indeed targeted by the Thunder team after playing the first two games.

The Spurs' ability to win their first two games is inseparable from Parker's excellent performance. But from Game 3 onwards, Parker was no longer able to use his sharp penetrations to bring damage to the opposition's interior, and he had to turn up the arc of his throws in the face of aggressive blocks from the opposing big man's players, which affected his shooting percentage, which was significantly worse than before. Parker used to be one of the league's highest-shooting guards, but today he shot just 35.7 percent from the field, and his inaccuracy left the Spurs without a sharp scoring weapon. After the power of the breakthrough was limited, Parker's erratic mid-range shooting became more unreliable, which also affected his offense.

Wu Huang felt that the Thunder could not use the prescription against Parker to catch the prescription for himself, because he saw that Parker's gaps outside the three-point line were actually large, but the Frenchman's poor long-range shooting ability prevented him from taking advantage of them. But if the person who holds the ball is replaced by himself, the Thunder's defense will make him very comfortable on the outside, and as long as he plays comfortably, it will be difficult for the Thunder to win, which is his confidence in his ability.

On June 6, the San Antonio Spurs missed the opportunity to win match points at home and now have to fight for match points on the road, and if they lose another game, they will have to play with the other 28 teams on vacation, and a whole season of hard work will be wasted.

The whole Knicks watched the game in their respective homes, Wu Huang watched the desperate Spurs in front of the TV almost crazy in the first half, and Tony Parker, who had been in the doldrums in the previous three games, scored 21 points and 10 assists in the first half alone, this kind of attack made the Holy Sect Master secretly stunned!

Wu Huang knows very well in his heart that the Frenchman's performance has continued to be sluggish in the previous three games, and if the Thunder's defense alone is unlikely to cause such an effect, so Parker must have injuries, just like Wade's slump in the Eastern Conference Finals, that guy must also have injuries, otherwise the opponent's defense alone may make these stars sluggish for a game or two, but it is almost impossible to make them play badly in three consecutive games.

Parker should have used some conservative treatment today to reduce the impact of the injury in a short period of time, but this conservative treatment will generally exacerbate the severity of the injury, but the Spurs have been cornered, either win or go home, and if you want to stay in the playoffs, there is no other way.

It wasn't just Parker who went berserk today, but Stephen Jackson also went crazy, coming off the bench to score 23 points on 6-of-7 three-pointers.

If the Spurs still had reservations before, today they unleashed all their power and bombarded the Thunder's basket from the beginning!

Ginobili continued to start today, hitting a three-pointer from the opening game, followed by two mid-range hits followed by two mid-range hits and three assists from Parker.

Parker then attacked on his own, hitting four consecutive shots in 85 seconds to give the Spurs a 15-8 lead.

The Thunder at home didn't have time to catch their breath, the Spurs' arsenal was already on fire, and Parker not only continued to attack the basket, but even hit a three-pointer that he was not good at. By the end of the first quarter, he had 17 points and five assists. The Thunder were a little flustered under the Spurs' frantic attack, and they suffered from gains and losses in the offense, and there were more mistakes, and the gap between the two teams reached 18 points at the most.

After the first quarter, the Thunder could only chase the score to 20:34 under Durant's one-man play, Harden was completely lost in the first quarter, and Wei Shao failed to help Durant, and the young Thunder team was already stunned.

"I didn't expect these old guys to have this trick." Wu Huang was also shocked after watching the first quarter, if the Knicks faced such a Spurs, they would not necessarily be much stronger than the Thunder, who would have expected that a group of old guys could burst out with such huge energy in a desperate situation?

At the beginning of the second quarter, Gary Neal hit a three-pointer, and Harden just returned a three-pointer, and Jackson immediately hit a long-range shot. From the first quarter to the first three minutes of the quarter, the Spurs shot a whopping 63 percent. With seven minutes left in the second quarter, Ginobili hit another three-pointer to give the Spurs a 48-30 lead.

After that, the Spurs' shooting percentage finally dropped, and the Thunder closed the gap to 13 points several times, and Durant hit a three-pointer near the end of the first half, and the Thunder trailed 48-63 at halftime.

The Spurs shot 54.5 percent from the field and 9-of-15 from three-point range in the first half, while Jackson scored 12 points on 4-of-4 three-pointers off the bench and Parker had 21 points and 10 assists in the first half.

If you only look at the first half of the game, the Spurs have a very good hope of getting back today, but the problem is that the Spurs did their best from the start, which is also a huge test of their physical strength. Sure enough, after the start of the second half, the Spurs players' stamina decreased, and their shooting percentage also decreased. The Thunder circled the first half and only began to get into the groove at this time, Durant and Westbrook won one after another, and they started the second half with an 11-2 wave to chase the score to 59-65 in one fell swoop.

"It's gone!" Wu Huang saw that the Thunder team played an 11:2 attack wave as soon as they came up in the second half, and he knew that the Spurs were out of action today.

In this game, the Spurs did have a good chance to win, but Durant's play in the first half made the Spurs unable to extend the lead to 20+ at halftime, which gave the Thunder a chance to survive, and once these guys were relieved at halftime, the game began to be unfavorable to the Spurs, because their physical problems even if they did not attack in the third quarter, they would have problems in the fourth quarter.

Once the Thunder were out of shape, the Spurs' defense was clearly unable to resist, and the home team quickly closed the gap to one point, and after Jackson hit two more three-pointers, the Spurs led 77-72 with three minutes left in the third quarter.

But the Thunder team was full of stamina, Westbrook hit consecutive shots, Durant hit a three-point shot from a distance, and after the two scored seven points in a row, the Thunder won 79-77.

Today's Spurs relied on Jackson in the face of adversity, and he drew a foul from beyond the three-point line and made two of three free throws to tie the score.

But after three quarters, the Spurs only led by one point at 81-80, and the Thunder won the quarter 32-18.

In the fourth quarter, the Spurs' shooting percentage continued to decline, and halfway through the fourth quarter, they only made one shot without counting free throws, and the Thunder took advantage of the situation to extend their advantage to 90-84.

Then the Thunder's home-court advantage began to be revealed, with several key penalties going against the Spurs, and the San Antonio missed several close opportunities due to penalties, which made Popovich furious off the court, but it didn't help, but instead he suffered a technical foul because of his emotion.

Faced with all kinds of unfavorable situations on and off the court, the mentality of the Spurs players began to be impatient, and after consecutive gambling three-point misses, the players did not even adopt foul tactics, and at the same time there were holes in the defense, as a result, with 25 seconds left in the game, the Thunder led 105-99, establishing an irreversible lead for the Spurs.

Ginobili then missed a three-pointer and the Spurs finally resorted to foul tactics, but Harden made two free throws to give the Thunder an eight-point lead, with only 14 seconds left to go.

In the end, the Spurs failed to create a miracle and had to accept the fate of being reversed by the Thunder, who unleashed all their energy in the first half, and failed to withstand the counterattack of the young Thunder in the second half, and the whole season of hard work was over.

Speaking to Westbrook after the game, Westbrook said: "Fisher is the key to the win, he's an experienced player, he has a stable mentality when it counts, he can pay attention to everything on the pitch and tell us things that we can't observe, which is often the key to winning. ”

Wu Huang laughed secretly in his heart, Fisher touted Westbrook before and after the game, but turned a deaf ear to Harden, who had been performing well in the previous three games, this obvious difference was very suspicious, Wu Huang didn't think Fisher's experience had such a big effect. But if this guy can do something in the Thunder team, he will be happy to see it, who knows if this guy has the idea of coming to the Knicks next season to hug his thigh?

"Thunder Sanshao, are my opponents starting to turn into these guys now?" Wu Huang looked at Durant and Westbrook, who were high-spirited on the court, and found that unconsciously, his opponents have developed from the Lakers and Celtics at the beginning to James and Howard in their playing years, and now in a blink of an eye, these opponents have become Durant and Rose who are close to their age, I wonder if they will become Irving and Cousins in the future, who are younger than themselves? (To be continued.) )
