****************************

The reason the Pistons are out of the series is mainly due to their offensive stamina. Especially for the interior line, the biggest flaw in the Pistons' lineup this year is the lack of an offensive interior line on the inside, which is the most regrettable point of the Pistons team that advocates team operations.

After the series, the Pistons were in the worst mood and Ben Wallace, who couldn't accept being eliminated after seven games.

In an interview, Wallace burst into tears: "If you're human, you can feel the pain. But as long as you can overcome it, it will make you stronger. ”

Obviously, for the kind of person who has already stepped into the Eastern Conference Finals with one foot, he really needs to be strong to face the reality of being shattered by a single goal for the whole season.

Winners are always moving forward, and losers need to find solace in setbacks.

Admittedly, after a great goal, the final four of the playoffs of the 02~03 season were born.

The Eastern Conference Finals are the Washington Wizards vs. the New Jersey Nets, while the Western Conference Finals are the San Antonio Spurs vs. the Saramento Kings.

For the promotion of the Wizards, it can also reflect that on the stage of the playoffs, not only strong teams can step on the peak.

Speaking of which, the Wizards' strength is mainly in the firepower of the bench and the coordination of new and old players, which is the biggest factor in the Wizards' success this season.

Of course, in this seven-game series, the most amazing thing is this year's No. 11 rookie Wu Di, who can contribute 14.0 points, 6.4 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 2.4 steals and 1.3 blocks per game.

That performance showed the potential he had on both ends of the floor, and more importantly, his three-point shot was a convincing offensive tool.

That is, after the miracle that the 76ers were able to shoot 55.8% of their three-point shooting rate in the first round, in the face of the Pistons, which are known for their defense, Wu Di's three-point shooting rate is still not low at 45.5%.

Although Wu Di faces little defensive pressure on the three-point line most of the time, being able to shoot such a percentage next to Jordan makes Wu Di undoubtedly the most reliable role player of the Wizards.

After the two series, many media even said that Wu Di was the most suitable player to play next to the superstar, and only Wu Di next to the superstar was the most efficient Wu Di.

It is this kind of evaluation that has really been recognized by countless people.

That's what every superstar wants.

As Jason Kidd, the leader of the Nets, the opponent of the Eastern Conference Finals, said: "From the first time I played Wu Di, I wanted to have a teammate who could make the game easy. ”

Kidd's words show his love for Wu Di and his desire to partner with Wu Di.

Of course, many people can't help but wonder if Wu Di can partner with the passing master Kidd, what will his performance look like?

However, this kind of imagination can only exist in fantasy, after all, for the Nets, how many times have they had the opportunity to get Wu Di this past season. However, the truth is, God foolish, Wu Di still played a full season with the Wizards after all, and met the Nets in the Eastern Conference Finals.

For the Nets and for Kidd, it is a big pity to miss Wu Di. After all, Kidd's repeated requests to be able to trade to get Wu Di throughout the league is an indisputable fact.

And for the Pistons, what they have to accept is that the season is over and they need to start over.

But fortunately, the future of the team is not so bleak and full of unknowns, and they have turned their attention to the upcoming draft, and if they can get a standout rookie, it will undoubtedly be the biggest addition for the Pistons.

Not surprisingly, this year's Pistons will receive a lottery pick. This draft pick has been analyzed by many sports media.

The draft pick came from the Memphis Grizzlies, and at that time, the Pistons would get the Grizzlies' top three protected draft picks in one of the 98~03 years.

The Grizzlies have not had a good record, and in recent years, they have been reluctant to give the Pistons their original promises, so they have dragged it out until now.

And this year has reached the agreed deadline, that is, the draft of the 03 golden generation, which is known as the big year of the historical draft.

So the Grizzlies can't run away, and they have to fulfill their original promise this year.

This is a draft pick that has made countless general managers of the league extremely covetous, and the Pistons, who have the best record in the East this season, have a good chance of acquiring this draft pick from the Grizzlies.

The Grizzlies are only 25-57 this season, the fifth-lowest in the league. And this year's draft pick is protected by the top three picks, which means that if the Grizzlies can pick the top three picks, then the Pistons will unfortunately lose a draft pick.

And if the Grizzlies can't pick the top three, the draft picks will go to the Pistons.

So, by any measure, the Grizzlies have undoubtedly made a mistake this year.

The Grizzlies general manager said in an interview that they should have returned the draft picks they owed to the Pistons early, otherwise the embarrassing situation they are in would not have arisen.

Obviously, the Grizzlies want to keep the pick, but for the Pistons, they desperately need it.

As a result, both sides are now hoping to be lucky enough to have this pick, and Ben Wallace even said that he wants the Grizzlies to pick the fourth pick in the lottery.

Ben Wallace's fantasy is what all Pistons fans want, and of course, Grizzlies fans hope they can be lucky enough to pick in the top three.

For the Grizzlies and Pistons' draft picks this time, everyone knows that if the Grizzlies really get the top three as they wish, then the Pistons' hope to get a good seedling will be disappointed.

……

For most fans, that's not enough to keep them on track, as the playoffs are at their worst this year, and as fans, they're enjoying the rest of the game.

The Wizards are known as the biggest dark horse of the season, and everyone is watching to see if they can go black this year and hack the Nets as well.

These days, Wu Di and others feel very busy, they are carrying out all kinds of training, and Doug Collins has organized the coaching staff to conduct special training for these newcomers.

At the level of the Eastern Conference Finals, not only rookies but also some veteran players began to get nervous. After all, after reaching this level, everyone knows that as long as you go further, it will be the finals.

However, as the days passed, the tension within the Wizards team slowly eased with various psychological therapies, and at the same time, the players began to look forward to the new series.

In the Eastern Conference Finals, the home-court advantage is still on the opponent's side.

And for the Wizards, they need to continue to face this situation, going to play two games on the road and then returning to play two games at home. However, considering that the Wizards and the Pistons fought for 7 games, many people were not curious to be able to seize the initiative in the series in the first game.

And things did go that way, the Wizards lost the New Jersey Nets in the first game, except for Michael Jordan, who scored 29 points, the performance of the others was relatively sluggish, and Wu Di, who was the absolute main force of the bench, only contributed 10 points, while he made 12 shots.

However, in the second game, Wu Di got rid of the slump in the first game and performed extremely efficiently, contributing 21 points, 7 rebounds and 3 steals on 7-of-13 shooting, helping the Wizards win 103-101 in overtime.

After the 1-1 score, the Pistons showed their strong continuity.

On May 25th, after returning to the home court, the Wizards won at home, in this game, Doug Collins insisted on playing as a team, and Wu Di's performance was quite amazing, with 15 points, 5 boards, 5 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.

After unexpectedly leading the series 2:1, the happiest was Jordan, who praised Wu Di on many occasions, which made Wu Di's fame even greater.
