Chapter 240 [Sweeping Promotion, Heat Breakthrough]
Because the foul was too fast, Wang Jun only played 27 minutes and scored 11 points and 6 rebounds.
Pierce's offensive skills amazed Wang Jun, and no matter how he played, he seemed to be able to shake out space, and he couldn't stop him from making a move.
As soon as he turned around and took a step-back jumper, Wang Jun couldn't think of a way to deal with it, so he could only pray that Pierce couldn't shoot. His teammates didn't defend well, and in the end Pierce scored 28 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.
The next day of training, Wang Jun really wanted to learn this trick, but unfortunately no one in the team could teach it.
Not to mention the Nets, there aren't many people in the league who can attack as smoothly as Pierce. He doesn't seem to be fast, but because he has such a good pace, he can create shots slowly.
Kidd shook his head and said: "You better practice your own skills first, Pierce's skills are not suitable for everyone, the rhythm when turning, the strength of retreat, the jump, and the timing of the shot are not something that can be mastered by watching the video, even if he himself teaches you personally, you may not be able to learn it well." β
"Am I going to play without the ball ever since?" Wang Jun did not give up.
Kidd squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Many people practice all their lives, and the efficiency of playing without the ball is not as good as yours, are you still not satisfied?" To learn technology, you should find someone who suits you, rather than learning it to see who has beautiful skills. β
Wang Jun understands this truth.
For example, throwing a basketball from a backward position, the action is very simple, and he will also do it, and he will naturally fall back when he turns around to shoot.
But if you want to be powerful, your physical fitness should account for at least 70% and your shooting is 30%, because many people will feel that they can't use their strength and their feet are empty when they use this trick.
If you jump low on a backward shot, you will still be blocked. It doesn't make much sense.
Pierce's step back is a change of rhythm and the jump is not high. Wang Jun felt that he could learn. It's just that it's too late now, and we have to wait until the end of the season.
It's a series of disparities. It didn't attract much fan attention.
In the second game, the Nets once again got the opponent in the third quarter.
The Celtics rely on two people to attack, and the others can't defend well, and they can't grab rebounds inside. Even if Pierce is as fierce as Jordan, it doesn't work.
The Knicks in the same city played the Pacers away and fell behind 0-2.
The game is bad, there is almost no suspense about going out, the New Yorkers still choose to support the Knicks, and the Madison Square Garden fans are full, which makes the Nets owner Lewis? Katz was very jealous.
The Nets are still miserable until the playoffs. He's had enough. The Nets only made a profit of about 20 million this year, which is because Wang Jun has attracted many Chinese and Asian fans. The Knicks, who have a garbage record, can make 200 million, which is unreasonable.
The Nets flew to Boston to play away.
The third battle is extremely crucial, Ricky? Davis scored 24 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, and Pierce had 31 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists.
It's a pity that the Nets are stronger. Kidd hit a triple-double of 18 points, 11 rebounds and 15 assists, leading the team to five double-doubles and win another game 100-95.
The Celtics are completely out of temper.
Counting last season's playoffs and regular season, they have lost 15 straight against the Nets. Any team loses so much in a row, the confidence will be affected, and the phobia will be on the verge of becoming a phobia.
In the fourth game, the Celtics resisted three quarters and collapsed again. Pierce couldn't shoot 6-of-18 either, and he had to not only attack, but also defend against Jefferson.
Jefferson's outburst. Two breakthroughs were tied to two plus one, and three amazing dunks were staged. He finished with 24 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.
105-83, the Nets easily swept the opponent with a total score of 4-0. Became the first team to advance.
At the press conference, Lawrence was not carried away by the victory, praising his players and wishing his opponents a better season next year.
Last season, the Nets swept back-to-back finals and went very well, but in the end they did not win the championship.
If you don't win to the end, there's no point.
It's no good to talk too much, Scott made that mistake last season and now Lawrence has experience.
"In the East, the Nets aren't the strongest, the challenge is at the back, and we have to give it our all," he said. Our goal of winning the title will not change, although it will not be easy. β
The reporter asked about Mourning, because he didn't appear in garbage time.
Lawrence was perfunctory. "He'll play when he has to."
Mourning has been training in the team and can play. The coaching staff forced him to rest, and there was no need to use physical strength to play a weak team.
On the other side, the Heat and Hornets really played fiercely, winning two home games each and drawing 2-2.
As a result, the Nets players will have at least five days of rest and their nerves can relax.
Wang Jun lived very comfortably after moving, and Abby didn't have to leave New York to interview the Knicks, and the two went out on a date on vacation and were tired of being together.
The Knicks won one game against the Pacers and lost Game 4 at home.
Then, both the Pistons and Pacers eliminated their respective opponents in five games to advance to the second round.
The Western Conference Spurs swept the Grizzlies 4-0 to advance, and the Duncan series completely suppressed Gasol, the core of the Grizzlies.
The Lakers eliminated the Rockets 4-1.
Yao Ming averaged 15 points, 7.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.4 blocks per game, and his statistics were not as good as O'Neal's, and the lack of shots was the main reason.
The best performance of the Rockets was Francis, who scored two difficult layups 2+1 in the winning game. He averaged 19.2 points, 8.4 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.4 steals per game, much better than the regular season, but the fly in the ointment was that he averaged 4.2 turnovers per game.
The current Rockets are still too tender compared to the Lakers.
The Timberwolves eliminated the Nuggets 4-1, and the Kings eliminated the Mavericks 4-1. The first round of the West is over.
In the end, it was the series between the Heat and the Hornets that decided the winner.
Wade became the most talked-about rookie, and he didn't perform like a rookie at all, playing hard-fought without stage fright, and playing well.
In the first game of the playoffs, he made a good start to the home team by killing the opponent at home, showing his big heart.
In the battle of Tianwang Mountain, Wade scored 21 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists to help the team win the match point.
In the sixth game, he scored 27 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists and almost led the team to victory, but unfortunately his teammates did not play well, and only three scored double-doubles and were forced into the seventh game.
The last one, CuarΓ³n? Butler got 23 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals, the whole team blossomed at more points, five people scored double-doubles, Wade had 12 points and 7 assists, and the Heat advanced at home.
The key to this series is home field advantage, with neither side able to capture the other's home turf.
Wade was the best player on the team, looking like a leader, and the limelight completely overshadowed Eddie Jones.
After the game, Heat coach Stan? Van Gundy said in an interview: "Nobody was optimistic about us, we played really well in the regular season and now we go into the playoffs and the players are just as energetic and I'm proud of them. In the next series, we won't let the Nets advance easily. β
On the players, Van Gundy said: "Not only are we good defenders, we're not bad forwards. Ramar is an underrated power forward, and Caron is just as strong and can play as long as he is given enough possession. β
Butler played 15.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.7 assists in his rookie season, competing with Yao Ming and Xiao Si for the best rookie. He has an injury this season, his playing time has been shortened, and his form has been inconsistent. He had 15 points, 8 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2 steals in seven playoff games.
The physical strength is slightly inferior, but the morale of the Heat team is at its peak, and they are ready to challenge the Nets. (To be continued.) )
PS: I won't describe the unimportant games much, I will speed up the progress, ask for recommendations, ask for support. This week's recommendation votes are too bad......
