Chapter 347: Advance to the Finals

This year, there has been a strange phenomenon, and some parts of the east and west have actually swept at the same time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The Western Spurs vs. the Clippers, the young Clippers finally paid a valuable tuition for their experience, Griffin averaged only 15.7 points and 7.1 rebounds per game in this round of the series, and shot only 41 percent from the field, which is really unsatisfactory for an insider.

Of course, being young can pay for failure, the Clippers general manager said.

The Clippers still have a bright future ahead of them, and Griffin needs time to grow up when he truly comes to his own devices, and that's when the Clippers reach the top of the league.

So at this time, Tang Wenlong, who entered the league with Griffin in the same period, led the 76ers to sweep the Heat and advance to the finals.

This is more embarrassing, and the general manager of the Clippers himself feels that the left and right sides of his face are swollen.

What does it mean to be young? Tang Wenlong is also very young. What does it mean that the opponent is more experienced? The Heat are clearly in their prime than the 76ers. It's just that in comparison, Tang Wenlong, who won the championship last year, doesn't look like a rookie who has just played in the league for three years, but more like a big boss in a rookie shell. People will always subconsciously ignore Tang Wenlong's age, and when he turned around and took it out to make a fuss, he finally exclaimed again, he had just turned 22 years old?

Before the rehearsal of the finals, the contrast between ages naturally became the main topic.

The Spurs also have young people, but the core roster is significantly aging. It's just that Duncan, who has lost weight at 37, looks like he is 32 years old, showing dominance on the court in the series against the Clippers. His defensive footwork can keep up with the youngsters, and then that's enough. With superhuman experience and solid fundamentals, the opponent is basically unable to complete normal offensive moves under the cover of his long arms.

This is also one of the reasons why the Spurs suddenly broke out, and the core players who once slaughtered all sides more than ten years ago have returned to the top, as if in a dream.

Then before the start of the finals, the big analysis of the starters and substitute lineups of the two teams.

Both teams have a regular lineup that has come to this point in the playoffs and won't be easily changed if they don't suffer major setbacks.

So the media can easily list the starting lineups of the Spurs and 76ers.

The Spurs have Parker, Danny Green, Leonard, Tim Duncan and Split on the Spurs' side, and Lowry, Iguodala, Tang Wenlong, David West and Marc Gasol on the 76ers' side.

It can be said that before the start of the game, the lineup analysis report of the two teams should be half a catty. Parker can slightly outperform Lowry, Iguodala can suppress Danny Green, Tang Wenlong is stronger than Leonard, Duncan has an advantage over David West, and Mark Gasol, who was selected to the All-Star team, is clearly a little better than Split. In the bench lineup, the Spurs have giants like Ginobili and Dior, and the 76ers also have veterans with rich game experience such as Ray Allen and Billups.

It is difficult to say whether the team has won the boundary clearly, the lineup report before the start of the game can only be a reference and analysis, after the real game on the field, there are too many factors, and even many players with similar personal abilities, in different tactical systems, under the lineup team, there will be a big deviation.

These two teams who have run in to such a tacit understanding will face off in the finals, and everyone thinks that it will be at least a more interesting round of finals.

Of course, most people are still optimistic about the imposing 76ers, after all, they haven't lost a single game in the playoffs so far, and it looks like they can sweep the entire league.

On June 6, after a few days off, the NBA ushered in the Finals.

Two days ago, the Spurs came to Philadelphia to warm up. From the warm-up to getting familiar with the court, to the tactical drills planned by Popovich's coaching team, the Spurs have done a very good job of preparation. Both teams trained behind closed doors, with none of the players being interviewed by outside media.

There are only a few simple interviews after a few sporadic trainings, which are regarded as treasures by the media, and they are repeatedly reported and reprinted in many ways.

NBA officials have done a lot of publicity work, and some media have even created a hype that this is the strongest matchup in the new century, as they each swept their own division finals opponents.

This reason is obviously not sufficient, and the sweep is often due to luck, just like the game between the 76ers and the Heat, there were two games in which the Heat fought with the 76ers to the end, but at the most critical time, the right time and place were not on their side, which led to the loss of the game.

To put it bluntly, luck at key moments is obviously a very important criterion, which explains why superstars are so sweet, in addition to increasing the strength of the team, their big heart scoring ability at critical moments will lead the team to victory.

This is also the most fundamental reason why Tang Wenlong's status in the league has soared sharply, his kind of commitment at critical moments, and his toughness in responding to the ball, make him a unique benchmark in the league, and if he beats the Spurs to win the championship this year, he will inevitably climb to the throne of the first person in the league.

The Spurs have become the last mountain to conquer when he reaches the top.

It is not only a kind of tempering, but also a challenge, but also a kind of baptism, Tang Wenlong has already felt such a kind of glory, and the blood in his body is burning because of this.

On the evening of the 6th, the Vacovia Center Arena.

Nearly 100 cameras, more than 20,000 spectators, nearly 100 countries and regions around the world broadcast the event, the president of the league, Stern and some other league executives came to the scene.

Celebrities from all walks of life in Philadelphia, stars from all walks of life in the cultural and sports worlds are gathered together, and it is really hard to find a ticket.

Instead of tickets to the Finals, more fans went to the bar outside the Wachovia Center to watch the game with their friends and other 76ers fans.

Before the game, each player made a special jersey for the finals, and the jersey was embroidered with the O'Brien Cup, which represents the championship. Then the floor of the stadium was also greatly changed, with the logo of the Grand Final on both sides of the floor. Including the ball frame, the billboards on both sides of the technical table, everything that can be used is used to render the atmosphere of the finals.

When Tang Wenlong walked into the court with his teammates, he deeply felt the taste of the finals.

Last year, it was also the same place where he lost two straight games to the Thunder to set the stage for the O'Brien Cup to go on to win the O'Brien Cup, and today, he is also determined to beat the Spurs.

"The Spurs are also in the game."

Just as he was thinking about it, Tang Wenlong suddenly heard the voice of his teammates, turned his head to look at the player tunnel on the other side, and sure enough, the group of tall men wearing Spurs' classic training uniforms walked into the field one by one, led by Tim Duncan, who had a somewhat gray beard, his steps were solid, his eyes were firm, like a rock, always so steady.

Tang Wenlong's eyes narrowed, this was the strongest opponent he was expecting. (To be continued.) )
