"Coach, does Larry Bird really want Oku?"

In Zhuang Fei's office in Boston, the team's assistant coach Stephen Green has been very excited after hearing Zhuang Fei talk about Larry Bird's arrival in the team yesterday, especially after getting the message that Larry Bird is bound to Oku from Zhuang Fei's tone.

In fact, a few months ago, he proposed to Zhuang Fei to trade Oku, this European big man and the team are a little mismatched, although the strength is very good, but there is no way to find his position, but at that time Zhuang Fei gave the answer is to wait, Stephen Green naturally knows Zhuang Fei' Wait' is not only because of his expectations for Oku's ability, but more importantly, Oku did not play his value, as Zhuang Fei, who has always been extremely shrewd, it is naturally impossible to sell the team's young center, but what has always made Green very depressed is that his coach expects to keep Oku to let him play his value, so that even a trade can get a good result, but in the end, the center's performance is getting more and more marginal, more tea than before, this is also because as the season progresses, Arenas's performance is getting better and better, and when Arenas is getting better and better, the interior line who is out of tune with Arenas is a little embarrassed。

It can be said that leaving Oku not only did not play the value that Green and Zhuang Fei wanted, but discounted the value, but what surprised Green was that Larry Bird of the Pacers actually took a fancy to him now, and it was in that tone at any cost, if he could knock Larry Bird at this time. Then there is absolutely no problem, and now the Boston Celtics assistant coach is full of thoughts about how to rip off the bamboo.

Zhuang Fei is naturally very clear about the psychology of his assistant coach now. It's just that at this time, he himself is a little curious, what chips Larry Bird will come up with that he can't refuse. Looking at that guy's tone yesterday, he seemed to be imperative, and he thought that he had already thought about the specific operation before telling him about the deal yesterday.

"Coach, do you think it's possible for us to get Joe Johnson?" At this time, Stephen Green looked at the head coach who was now a little silent, and also put forward his thoughts with some expectation, for the Boston Celtics, the Pacers now have a figure on the team, and Joe Johnson has a strong attraction to the Celtics, and this guy has also performed extremely well this season. The swingman known as Carter's successor and Carter No. 2 is not only similar to Carter in terms of title, but also very similar to Carter in his personal style of play, style of play, and even key ball ability. As long as he comes to the Boston Celtics, the team will change a lot of play, it can be said that the team's assistant coach, Green has long coveted his junior, and if he can take this opportunity to get Joe Johnson, it will definitely be the best result.

"You don't have to think about this, it's impossible" Zhuang Fei looked at the assistant in front of him who was almost drooling and shook his head with a smile and said, Joe Johnson is not only what Stephen Green wants, but he Zhuang Fei also wants, and even all teams in the league can't refuse such a 'Carter successor'. A swingman who can average 16 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists per game in his rookie season is definitely the top in terms of potential, and Larry Bird will not be stupid enough to take such a player for a European center, and from last season, it seems that Larry Bird intends to cultivate this swingman, and I think he is also starting to find a successor for Reggie Miller.

"Hehe, I know, but Joe Johnson is really one of our best options," Stephen Green also touched his head after hearing Zhuang Fei's words and replied with a smile, the assistant coach's face is still full of regret. …,

"By the way, Coach, now the league's rookie camp is going to start. The team's scouts are ready to go to Orlando, and they're now waiting for your instructions, where are our main draft targets for this year? Stephen Green suddenly remembered what happened to the scouting just now, and then immediately asked Zhuang Fei, in fact, the scouting affairs are not in his hands, but the team's operations director Carl and the team's deputy general manager Danny Anji are handling it, but what is strange is that these two people did not come to work at all today, so it is impossible for the scout to get Zhuang Fei's instructions from the two of them, and finally can only ask Zhuang Fei's other assistant for help.

The league is about to open a rookie training camp Zhuang Fei heard Danny Anji say a few days ago, at that time Danny Anji asked Zhuang Fei what he thought, but Zhuang Fei kept thinking about it and didn't answer, this year is a small year in the draft, far away from the big year of the draft, between the middle and small years, but even in such a year, there are still some good candidates, such as the top hit Dunleavy Jr. and Jae Williams and high school student Stoudemire, these people Zhuang Fei is also eye-catching, And every year the league will hold a centralized training camp in Chicago or Orlando around May 25, and the players who participate in the summer camp are invited by the league to send invitations, not everything can participate, generally between 50-60 players are invited every year, and after the end of this centralized training camp, these players and other rookies who have not participated in the centralized invitation can go to the training camp held by each team to try, so this centralized training camp is when each team determines its goals before the draft. When the goal is set, after the intensive training camp, the team needs to invite the players to the team for a tryout, and if the team and the players are in line with each other during the tryout, then it will be determined at the time of the draft. Therefore, it is extremely important to determine the goal this time, and scouting must also have a focus. It's just that Zhuang Fei has been thinking about it for a long time and hasn't figured out what players his team is lacking now, but now with the recent difficulties encountered by the team, he has also determined something.

"The speed type has a certain offensive skills of the interior player and a shooter who can shoot in the open space, we will focus on such players this time, let them collect the information of these types of players and give it to me," Zhuang Fei also said with a smile.

"I understand," Stephen Green also smiled and nodded after getting Zhuang Fei's instructions. Then he went out with Zhuang Fei's order

The Boston Celtics and Wizards played fast. Four games ended the battle, which also allowed Zhuang Fei and his team to get more than a week of rest again. And the Celtics were also the fastest to advance in the second round, which is probably beyond everyone's expectations. After the Celtics and Wizards came out, many people thought that the Wizards could bring a lot of trouble to the Boston Celtics, but judging from the final results of the game, except for the last game, the other three games were completely one-sided, and the Wizards were not the opponents of the Celtics at all. At the same time, those expert media have also come to the conclusion that the Celtics are the nemesis of the Wizards.

But either way, the Boston Celtics were the first to advance. And the day after the Celtics advanced, their opponents were also quickly out, and in the other Eastern Conference semifinals, the Grizzlies also swept the ambitious Pat Riley and his Heat with a score of 4-0, unlike the Boston Celtics and Wizards. This round of the Heat and Grizzlies game is the worst series in history.

This is not to say how exciting this series is or how exciting the game is, the result of this round of the series is 4-0, not exciting at all, the Grizzlies are staging a one-sided, the reason why this round of the series is tragic is because the scores of both sides in these four games are too low, in fact, after the Grizzlies defeated the Heat 76-65 in the first game of the two teams, many people said that this game was ugly, such a score is indeed very low, and there are indeed many fans who do not like such a game, Even some Grizzlies fans and Heat fans think so. But to the shock of these people, the 76-65 in the first game of the two teams was actually the most points scored by the two teams in this series, and in the next three games, the Vancouver Grizzlies scored 71, 68, 70, while the Heat scored 64, 57, 62, and the two teams combined for the most points in the game was only 140 points. The Grizzlies are all four games below 80 points, and the Heat are simply below 70 points, so this series is also the lowest score series since the NBA has statistics, and the two teams' slow-paced play of grinding meat also makes fans speechless, the head coaches of these two teams, Pat Riley and Jerry West, are also old acquaintances, and after this round of the series, these two old acquaintances all praised each other's defense in unison. …,

It's just that what many people don't know is that after the series game between the Grizzlies and the Heat, Zhuang Fei received a call from Heat head coach Pat Riley at home.

"This is the scariest team I've ever seen, this series I want to fight with them defensively, they played the best defense in history, but I know that they can attack, I even think, if I fight with them to attack this team will win more than 100 games at the venue, Zhuang, you have to be careful, this is a team beyond your imagination, it seems that the outside world said that Jerry has created a dynasty team again is completely correct, if you want to win the championship, Then they are the biggest obstacle to your ascension, but in my opinion, you are no match for them right now, good luck, my friend."

And after hanging up Pat Riley's phone, Zhuang Fei was also helpless, Pat Riley was not the first person to tell him that the Celtics couldn't play the Grizzly Bear, although Zhuang Fei would agree with these people's words to a certain extent in his heart, but he didn't have any fear of this grizzly bear, the grizzly bear can make Pat Riley fearful, but it can stimulate Zhuang Fei's interest in challenging this team.

The Grizzlies and Heat played a very depressed game, which made the fans very depressed, and even more so the NBA ratings, but the situation was somewhat opposite in the other series of matches in another venue, and in the second round of the Lakers and Spurs in the second round of the West, the two teams played completely offensively.

The Lakers have always been a top offensive team in the league, and in terms of offensive firepower, the former Timberwolves and the current Kings can compete with them, while their opponent Spurs is a traditional team, offense and defense have always been very balanced, and in a balanced situation, they will focus slightly on defense, but in a balanced sense, it is not an offensive team, which is also the impression that everyone used to have of this team, but after this series, the impression of these fans needs to change, In the first game of this round of matchups, the Spurs are indeed ready to fight with their own defense and the Lakers' triangle offense, after all, this is their housekeeping ability, but the final result is very tragic, the Spurs who are defending on the road were played by the Lakers 121-90, and the away defeat was 31 points, and the opponent's big three O'Fat Kobe Bryant and Szebiak cut a total of 75 points in the third quarter, making the fourth quarter directly garbage time, if the fourth quarter is not garbage time, then the Lakers Big Three have no problem cutting 100 points in a game, In the face of Ao Fat, who can attack with the ball in the frame, the Admiral is completely helpless on the defensive end, Ao Fat wants to score and play, the Lakers' offense is also completely open, and finally Vicky, who has no way, completely gave up the Admiral in the next game, and directly let Duncan take a big or four small to fight against the Lakers on the court, although the final result is still that the Spurs lost, but they also won the Lakers twice, and the final loss was also wonderful, at least the Lakers were dragged into the sixth game.

If the game between the Lakers and the Spurs was extremely exciting, then the other Western Conference semifinals game between the Timberwolves and the Kings was completely different, and it was broken after Zhuang Fei left this year. The Timberwolves' phobia Kings had a complete 3-1 advantage in the regular season, and the defensive team under Van Gundy was completely beaten into a sieve when it met the King, and it turned out that Wang Zhizhi could not replace Xiao Ao on the defensive end like on the offensive end, and the current King is not the team that can be completely blocked by only one Garnett, this round of the series King swept the Timberwolves four times in a row, directly putting Van Gundy on the brink of class again, and in the fourth game of the target center, the whole Timberwolves fans actually shouted the Chinese's name again, and Van Gundy could only stand there with an iron face and could not do anything。 There is no way to do it.
