Chamberlain may not have fully understood the power of anger, but he had learned how to control his emotions and how to turn anger into combat power.

The fourth quarter was Chamberlain's one-man show, and the Lakers slowly lost their lead under his impact.

Kobe Bryant was finally in a hurry, he no longer did anything damn planner, passer, and directly charged himself, but the top star, the dominance of the outside line and the inside line is really a little different, and the game is over, and the Warriors have won a good start on their home court.

At the moment when the whistle blew at the end of the game, Chamberlain, who had been speechless for a long time, slammed the ball on the floor, turned to face the Lakers bench, and roared angrily at the sky.

The momentum is terrifying!

In the fourth quarter, Chamberlain hit 8 balls from 12 shots, scoring a total of 21 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 blocks, scoring and blocking a single-quarter record in the Western Conference Finals, and the eight rebounds also tied the record of eight rebounds won by Garnett in the Western Conference Finals between the Timberwolves and Lakers that year.

But the better news for Warriors fans is that Ibaka only suffered a minor concussion, which will not affect the rest of the game, and he can still start the next game.

In this way, Warriors fans can finally rest assured, the last round was West's broken foot, this time Ibaka concussion, they really can't afford any more accidents.

But that's the way it is in the playoffs, especially when it comes to the divisional finals, no one wants to lose, the game is no longer a game, but a war, and in order to win, each team will do everything to deal with the opponent.

As soon as the game ended, and when the fans left the court, the Warriors began to use their hands and feet on the hoop, and the technicians tightened the hoop, so that once the ball bounced on the hoop, it would pop far away, and the Bulls also used this trick back then.

Chamberlain chipped 18 rebounds in this game, but the Warriors only had 45 rebounds as a team, missing the Lakers 8 rebounds.

The Warriors are athletic and their players are more flexible, so it's easier for them to grab rebounds when the hoop is tightened and the ball bounces out.

After attending the press conference, Chamberlain was about to leave the arena, and the elder Nelson urgently left him behind and asked bluntly: "What do you think of that French lad from San Antonio, Parker, Tony Parker, and what is the chemistry between you if you partner with you?" ”

Tony Parker, who joined the San Antonio Spurs with the 28th pick in the first round in 2001, has gone from a small guard who can only run to the most breakthrough and most attacking defender in the league today.

Chamberlain admires this low-key and passionate player off the court, especially Parker who is still so strong.

In recent years, Parker's perimeter shooting has gradually strengthened, and he has gradually transformed from a nervous knife guard when he first entered the league to an old and spicy open shooter. As a playmaker, Parker has a good grasp of the situation on the court, and although his assist numbers are not very impressive, he is the best offensive initiator for championship teams.

In the Spurs' main defensive style of play, the appearance of Parker has made the team's offensive play more diverse. If you fall into the position and attack, no one is afraid of Duncan in charge; If it's a fast break, Parker's speed is also a headache for any point guard.

In addition, since entering the NBA, Parker has continued to improve, and now he frequently uses mid-to-long-range shooting in the game, although the shooting percentage is not very impressive, but you must know that two years ago, he only shot when there was a very large and very large open space. Now, he is able to attack with very little space, which makes him more responsible in attacking.

Another strength on the offensive end is Parker's turnover rate, which has increased from 12 in 2005-06. 3 down to 9 this year. 3。

It's the best of his career — 10th among point guards, which doesn't seem like a big deal, but it's a rare occasion for a player who dribbles that much, and Paul is only 9. 1, ranked ninth.

On top of that, Parker's salary has been low, and he's been voted the best value player in the NBA for several seasons in a row, and he's certainly the kind of guard every team wants.

Chamberlain thought about it for a moment and said more cautiously: "He is actually a bit similar to AI, but AI is older now, and Parker is in his prime, so I think if we carry out a Kombat whirlwind, we can create enough victory." ”

Old Nelson nodded and said, "I think so too." ”

Chamberlain somewhat understood what old Nelson meant by asking this question, but he still asked, "Why are you asking this?" Unless it's an All-Star, Parker and I don't have a chance to work together. ”

Old Nelson had a pleasant smile on his face, handed a copy of the essay to Chamberlain, and said, "No, there is a chance." ”

Chamberlain took the article suspiciously, and after opening it was a headline: Spurs want to regroup, Parker will be purged this summer.

Wen Jiàn was just handed over to the old Nelson by the scouts, and they got the news after hard work, that is, because the Spurs have aged in recent years, the team's uniform team intends to reorganize the championship team.

The Spurs have been the most successful team in the last decade or so, their gross salary has never exceeded the salary cap, and their owners have never paid the luxury tax, but the team has won the NBA championship four times in 1999, 2003, 2005 and 2007.

But after '07, the Warriors replaced him in the West, and after years of glory, the Spurs were on their way to decline, and a rebuild was imperative.

In this way, the Spurs must sign free agents or trade methods to upgrade the team's military strength, just trade, in the current situation, Parker is the Spurs' most valuable player, and his contract is about to expire next season, next season's contract is 13.5 million, although he is old, but he still has some ability, many teams are interested in him.

The contract mentions the news that a scout learned from a Parker friend that Parker had told his friend at his friend's birthday party that he couldn't be sure about his future with the Spurs, especially since he might need to leave San Antonio with a contract extension from Ginobili and sophomore George Hill overlapping him.

The contract also revealed that the Spurs are currently in contact with Brazilian forward Tiago Split, a player selected by the team in 2007, and that the Spurs want him to leave Europe next season to join the NBA.

Chamberlain couldn't believe the news, he said: "You know, Parker has super fast speed, good ability to take chances, and a beautiful mid-to-long range shot, to be honest, the Frenchman is the most trusted person for the Spurs other than Duncan, and he is much younger than Duncan and Ginobili, will the Spurs give up on him?" ”

Nelson Sr. explained: "Yes, it's possible, the Spurs are not Lakers and will not send O'Neal to keep Kobe Bryant for the future. In addition, their choice is also about money, and they will have to figure out if it is a worthwhile effort if they continue to maintain their current squad. ”

Chamberlain didn't quite understand, so Nelson Sr. explained to him, and also mentioned the Jazz and Hawks, which are said to have a lot of problems and very unstable lineups.

The team's every qiē is for the purpose of making money, what glory, city business card, this is all nonsense.

In big cities like New York and Los Angeles, NBA teams can certainly make money no matter how bad they are, but Salt Lake City and San Antonio are niche cities, and Atlanta is big enough to have a small basketball market. If the Jazz, Spurs and Hawks are to maintain their current roster, they will face the specter of paying the luxury tax, not to mention the team's intention to strengthen the roster to go far in the playoffs.

The Jazz's main problem is Boozer, a team that is close enough to the top of the Western Conference, but even if the team has a top interior bench like Millsap, losing Boozer would still be a serious step backwards for the Jazz.

The Hawks are in a similar situation to the Jazz, and their problem is Joe Johnson. Although the Hawks are under a little less salary pressure than the Jazz, there is still a risk of paying the luxury tax if they re-sign Johnson with a salary cap.

Of course, the Hawks can avoid that by maintaining the current nine-man rotation system and only signing other players on base salary contracts. Doing so won't help the Hawks close the gap between them and the top teams in the East.

As for the Spurs, signing Ginobili to a contract extension before the end of the regular season has already depleted their salary space this summer. If the team signs Brazilian striker Split this summer, paying the luxury tax is a must, and it is a necessary move for the team to increase its competitiveness.

Chamberlain looked through the report and found that the Spurs had already begun to peddle Jefferson, and when the Spurs got Jefferson last summer, the league exclaimed that they had formed the Big Four.

As a result, this was Popovich's worst trade in a decade, Jefferson was very uncomfortable after coming to the Spurs, and there was no chemistry with Duncan, and the Spurs lost their wives and soldiers, so after being eliminated in the playoffs, they immediately wanted to send Jefferson away.

The Spurs are really sad now, they were eliminated by the Mavericks, and Jefferson, who was pinned on the hope of the outside artillery, continued to mute fire, completely breaking the hearts of Spurs fans.

Jefferson is in an awkward position right now, he still has two years left on his contract that has not expired, and the total amount is around 25 million. And he is no longer one of the three-headed monsters of the Nets back then, so there are fewer people willing to take over him.

The Warriors were hungry for talent last season, but multiple trades were unsuccessful, and Jefferson was once the No. 3 pick, but he chose to join the Spurs.

At that time, the old Nelson licked his face and went to Popovich to discuss Jefferson's contract, Popovich put on a strange posture and refused to trade, and now the pain is coming, Popovich wants to trade Jefferson again, and the old Nelson does not agree.

Jefferson has lost his fighting spirit and motivation, he has retired in the NBA ahead of time, and the Warriors will not choose him.

Nelson Sr. summed up the scouting report and told Chamberlain: "The Spurs are considering trading Parker, who has a whopping $13.5 million salary next season, and San Antonio now has a replacement for a year old, and that's George Hill, who is only $1.5 million a year. ”

"If the Spurs can send Parker in exchange for a good wing player or a really strong No. 4, that might help the Spurs stay competitive while avoiding the luxury tax, and of course, they will have to pray that Duncan can continue to be where he is next year."

Still a little unconvinced, Chamberlain asked, "Are the Spurs really going to break up their GDP portfolio?" The combination turned out to be a success! ”

Nelson Sr. smiled: "Yes, this combination has brought San Antonio three championships, but the years are not forgiving, you see, Duncan is 35 years old, and he has a knee pad around his knee all season." Ginobili's long flowing hair is long gone, and he's 33 years old, with ups and downs plagued by injuries. And then there's Parker, who hasn't reached 30 yet, but has only played 56 games all season due to injury, is there still a need for this combination? ”

Chamberlain shook his head firmly and said, "No, BOSS, I've fought with them, I know these three people, their combat effectiveness is still very strong, I think the Spurs are just putting smoke bombs, they won't really send Parker or any of these three people away!" ”

Old Nelson said frankly: "You know, these are three thirty-year-old guys!" ”

Chamberlain insisted on his opinion: "Believe me, BOSS, these three old guys, at least in the next three years, still have the strength to win the championship." After saying that, he added, "As long as they stay healthy!" ”
