Chapter 255: The End of the Season
Chapter 255: The end of the season
Feng Shui takes turns, and the Timberwolves beat the Dallas Mavericks in the first round, so they have to be prepared to be defeated by other strong teams.
The Phoenix Suns have been locked out of championships for several seasons, and no one can imagine their desire for a championship.
Outsiders look at NBA stars, they are more admired, they like to watch stars brush points, they like to watch exciting dunks, and they also like to watch exciting scoring duels, but fans have never paid much attention to the concept of championships.
The stars who can win the championship, the fans often just sigh after a sigh, or they win the championship because of the different positions.
When Kobe Bryant didn't prove that he could lead the team to a championship on his own, he was a superstar in the eyes of the fans, and even if he couldn't bring a championship yet, the scoring show could attract them and make their adrenaline rush faster, and that was enough. The same goes for Maddie.
However, for basketball players who aspire to surpass Michael Jordan, every championship ring is one step closer to the position of basketball god.
Steve Nash has always been mild-mannered, but that can't hide his desire for a championship, because he wants to get a championship ring, he has kept eating a nutritious meal with chewing wax for many years, and has refused hamburgers and beef in order to maintain his competitive condition so that he can still play at an advanced age.
After all, the former son of the wind is old and no longer heroic!
Blocked from the championship by the old San Antonio Spurs in the past two years, several playoff battles have made the two teams irresolvable rivals.
Now, the Phoenix Suns, who are in the playoffs this year with a vengeful rage, are absolutely terrifying, and they even want to sweep the San Antonio Spurs out of the semifinals.
It's a shame that Steve Nash was disappointed. Instead of waiting for the old Spurs, they waited for the young Timberwolves.
There was no suspense in the result, and the Phoenix Suns, who were determined to get revenge, swept the Minnesota Timberwolves directly with a crisp four-game victory.
Without the power to resist, the Phoenix Suns under the leadership of Nash are like autumn winds sweeping away leaves, devastating!
May 4 at 111:102 at the American Airlines Center in Phoenix
May 6 at 110:102 at the American Airlines Center in Phoenix
May 8 at home Minnesota 110:96
May 10 at home Minnesota 107:101
It is indeed powerless to resist. Even with the Timberwolves' boys trying their best, it was still difficult to snatch a victory.
It was a huge blow to them, and when they watched Nash walk out of the target center at home, Lefou's eyes even had some sourness.
They have fought hard for a season, and they have worked hard for a season, and in the ridicule and eyes of the outside world, step by step, it is hard to imagine how much baggage they are carrying.
Even if you know that the chances of winning the championship this season are slim, but when the results are announced. Lefu still couldn't help but feel empty in their hearts, as if they had lost something.
Just like men will always be unstoppably lost in the arms of others for the goddess, Lefou's psychological state at the moment still has a bit of this flavor in it.
Unlike Lefou, Li Shihao walked out of the stadium alone after the game, returned home, and lay on the bed. Next to him was a basketball with a thick marker on it. Written with a line of words:
"To the future big star Li Shihao!"
In the dead of night, the room was empty, Li Shihao was lying on the bed alone, looking at the basketball quietly placed next to him, and his scattered gaze gradually condensed.
This line of writing was not given to him by relatives and friends, nor was it given to him by some famous football star. The person who wrote this line was none other than Li Shihao himself.
"No one will remember the Chinese kid who walked out of the Hampton town!"
This sentence was a parting message given to him by his high school coach when Li Shihao graduated from high school, and it had no other meaning, his high school coach just hoped that Li Shihao could take this as a warning. Spur yourself on and keep the motivation to struggle.
The high school coaches in the small town of Hampton have not seen and heard as many basketball coaches in the United States, and their tactical literacy is not high, but for Li Shihao, a high school coach who is over half a hundred years old, he has given him enough trust.
For an obscure Chinese kid to play time, the right to shoot, and a precious core position!
On the day he left Hampton, Li Shihao wrote this line on the basketball he had played for three years, and the meaning of it was probably only understood by himself.
In tonight's game, the Timberwolves were completely defeated at home and swept out by the Phoenix Suns, which was really uncomfortable for him.
I thought I was strong enough, but I didn't expect that I would still be so powerless in the face of those top teams.
Li Shihao silently thought about the process of his coming season in his heart, and calculated the gains and losses in his heart.
This season, he didn't use much breakthrough technology, and the breakthrough technology that can become a conventional weapon in the NCAA is not enough in the NBA.
This has to do with the overall environment of the league, and the average defensive standard in the NBA must be higher than that of the NCAA.
Every year, many talented rookies stand out from the NCAA and are ready to make a big splash in the NBA, but they are suppressed by reality and have no room for backhand, and finally disappear from the crowd.
Such examples are not absent, there are too many.
Li Shihao's breakthrough skills are a little inadequate in the face of those outside defenders in the league.
Not fast enough, this problem is the biggest problem that limits Li Shihao's breakthrough technology.
If you can't get rid of the defender with speed in the first place, then the subsequent single attack will be heavy on the elbows, and the more you play, the more uncomfortable it becomes, like stuck in a quagmire.
This season, Li Shihao's usual trick is to use an excellent sense of rhythm to shake the opponent away, so as to get rid of the opponent, this way is only suitable for those defensive players who rely on physical fitness to defend, if you meet an experienced veteran, it will undoubtedly be a little insufficient.
There are many defensive defenders in the league, and if the breakthrough technique cannot be practiced well, it will become a major shortcoming of Li Shihao, and sooner or later it will be exposed.
Li Shihao understands that his strength is in the jump shot, but the shortcomings in the breakthrough cannot be too short.
I've been practicing the Channeling Technique for a while, and although my speed is also rising, it's still some distance from the average speed in the upper reaches of the alliance.
Sometimes, this distance is often as difficult to cross as a moat.
After all, the human body has its own limits, and Li Shihao doesn't know how far his speed growth can go.
