After the All-Star break, Luan Jiye returned to the regular season again, and after a few months, the Rockets and the Cavaliers faced off twice, but both times, the Rockets narrowly beat the Cavaliers by two or three points, and played very smoothly with other teams, so the Rockets easily entered the playoffs with 70 wins and 12 losses.

The team finally made the playoffs, and everyone on the team breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at the opponent in the first round of the playoffs, which was the Spurs, you know, this year's Spurs team is also very strong, plus their old coach Popovich is very experienced, and he has led the Spurs since Duncan did not retire, so it can be said that he is now the best coach in the league.

And their starters are also very strong: center Gasol, power forward Leonard, small forward Danny Green, scoring guard Parker, point guard Ginobili, although three of them are veterans, but they have not reduced the style of the year, and Gasol is the No. 1 center in Spain, and he is also thriving in the NBA, with a good mid-range shot and three-pointer, which is rare in big men.

The playoffs are a week later, and although this week is a holiday, the players have long given up the vacation and are training desperately in the training tube, and they mainly train all the inside Capela, Nene , Zhou Qi, Blake, Dunn, these five people are hard work, they need to stand up and limit Gasol at any time.

Harden, Luan Jiye, Paul, Green, Ariza, Capela, Tucker, Anderson, Nene Zhou, Johnson, Black, Dunn have been confirmed to enter the playoffs, and Aaron Jackson, who was urgently recruited from the Development League Vipers, previously played for the CBA Beijing team, but in the end he was signed due to team injuries and personnel shortages.

At the end of a day's training, Luan Jiye sat on a bench on the sidelines to rest, took out his mobile phone and looked at it, at this time, Zhou Qi sat over, and then said: "After the NBA season is over, we have to go back to the Olympics, think about it, I'm really looking forward to it!" ”

"Yes, by the way, Brother Qi, how did you feel when you participated in the Olympics in Rio? Because I saw you when you overtook South Korea at the Asian Championships! Obviously very strong, but still six consecutive defeats! Luan Jiye said.

"It was my first time at the Olympics, so I was really nervous, because of this mentality, I never played as well as I should have!" Zhou Qi said.

"Then, let's work together this time!" Luan Jiye said, and stretched out his hand.

"Good! Come on! Zhou Qi shook Luan Jiye's hand, but now he still has to face the challenge of the playoffs first.

The two chatted for a while, Luan Jiye said goodbye to Zhou Qi and went home, and when he got home, he saw his mother and aunt busy in the kitchen, and said, "I'm back." After that, he put his handbag at the door, walked directly to the sofa and lay on it, he was really tired today, D'Antoni also said that he didn't have to come tomorrow, but Luan Jiye still planned to practice for a few hours tomorrow.

Zhang Chunming saw Luan Jiye lying on the sofa, and then said, "Are you tired today?" I'll make something for you in a moment! ”

"Good! Expect! Luan Jiye said.

At this time, Zhao Ling also walked downstairs, and when she saw Luan Jiye coming back, she said, "You practiced hard again today, right?" Didn't my brother and sister tell you to be careful? ”

After Luan Jiye listened, he hurriedly sat up, and then asked, "What is it?" No, did you eavesdrop on my phone call? ”

Zhao Ling rolled her eyes, and then said, "Who overheard, accidentally heard it when I went to the toilet in the middle of the night, I didn't expect the girl to care about you so much?" How? It must be her who walked into the marriage hall with you, right? ”

"Of course!" Luan Jiye said affirmatively.

"Haha!" Zhao Ling smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be quite confident!" Oops, I really want to find a boyfriend who can play basketball now! ”

Luan Jiye listened, and then said with a smile: "Sister, you are in the United States now, and Americans are very fond of oriental girls now, don't stay at home if you have nothing to do, go out for a walk!" Maybe you'll be hooked! ”

"Don't make bad ideas, you kid!" Zhao Ling said.

"Also, your English is too inferior!" After Luan Jiye finished speaking, he quickly ran back to his house.

When Zhao Ling reacted that Luan Jiye was laughing at herself, Luan Jiye was gone, and she was left to find another person to pound the pillow on the sofa, Zhang Chunli saw it, and then said, "Are you crazy?" ”

Finally, dinner began, Zhang Shanming and Wang Guiying, who were out for a walk, also came back, Zhang Chunming brought a bowl of beef stewed persimmon soup, Luan Jiye hadn't eaten this dish for a long time, ready to prepare the dishes and chopsticks, and the family also sat around the dining table, Luan Jiye saw the dish and picked up the bowl without hesitation, took a bite of rice, and then sandwiched a piece of beef and blew it, then put it in his mouth, chewed a few bites, and then praised and said: "Sure enough, my mother's dish is the best!" ”

Saying that, he sandwiched another piece, and now Luan Jiye's meal is rising, not only to gain weight, but also because the current competition and training tasks are very heavy, which makes Luan Jiye's stomach bigger, Zhang Shanming smiled and gave Luan Jiye a piece of beef, and then said: "You have entered the playoffs, you must come on!" ”

"That's a must! Definitely make it to the finals! Luan Jiye said.

The family chatted while eating, the atmosphere was very harmonious, at this time, Luan Jiye saw a display cabinet in the living room, and in the cabinet were his two trophies, he almost went home to sleep these days, and he didn't notice it, and then asked: "Why did my trophy come here?" Also, where did the display case come from? ”

"Your grandfather, he wants the trophies to be placed in the most conspicuous place, so he has to buy a display case, and then put your two trophies in the living room, and wipe them several times a day!" Wang Guiying said with a smile.

"That's an exaggeration, isn't it?" Luan Jiye said.

"Not exaggerating, you think! How many players can reach your level in China? Zhang Mingshan said.

What else can Luan Jiye say, since grandpa cherishes his honor very much, he can't say anything, after eating, Luan Jiye went to his room and lay down for a while, and saw a message sent by Cui Fan'er, which read: "Come on in the playoffs!" ”

Seeing this information, Luan Jiye smiled, and then replied: "I won't live up to your expectations!" [smile]"

Put down the phone, looked at the ceiling, and thought to myself, the game is going to be played next week, whether the playoffs can enter the finals, even if you pass the first two rounds of the playoffs, you still have to face the Warriors in the West finals, the Warriors' death five small is really very perverted, I still remember the last time I killed the Warriors, it is conceivable that the Warriors are still very difficult to entangle.

If he passes the Western Finals, 80% of the finals will be able to meet the Cavaliers, and it is likely to fight the tiebreaker, another battle of the century, Luan Jiye is now nervous and looking forward to it, thinking, Luan Jiye fell asleep unconsciously, this is already one of the few good nights before the playoffs start, sleep well.
