Anyone who sees a match in the regular season, and then looks at the Eastern and Western record rankings, will be entangled.

Before the Zuihou regular season comes, the top eight in the East and West have not been fully released, which is not unprecedented, but it has never been as tangled as this season.

Although all the Eastern Conference playoff spots have been released, the Miami Heat, New Jersey Nets, and Washington Wizards are still in the middle of a silly confusion about who is sixth, seventh, and eighth.

And the Cavaliers and Magic who is second in the East and who is third in the East will also be decided in Zuihou, and it is the most direct duel between the two sides.

The uncertain ranking also means that the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs is not determined, except for the fourth and fifth Chicago Bulls and Toronto Raptors.

The Los Angeles Clippers and New Orleans Hornets in the West are also likely to be in the playoffs ahead of the Zuihou game, but they can only hope that the eighth-placed Golden State Warriors will lose to the first-placed Dallas Mavericks.

The Los Angeles Clippers need to face the unranked Miami Heat, while the New Orleans Hornets need to play the Phoenix Suns, who are second in the West. Paul and Steve. The Nash matchup is enough to look forward to, not to mention the battle for a playoff spot.

The only advantage for the Hornets is that the Suns have locked up the second place in the West and there is no need to worry about the rankings, so it is likely that they will not do their best in the Zuihou game, once the Hornets win the game and the Warriors lose to the Mavericks, and the Clippers also lose to the Heat, then the Hornets can climb from 11th to 8th in the West.

The Warriors are in the same situation as the Hornets, with the Mavericks already firmly in first place in the West. While old Nelson and Mark. Cuban is unhappy, but it doesn't mean that Cuban's Dallas Mavericks will be very serious about playing this Zuihou game.

In case the calf is put into the water. Then even if the Clippers and Hornets win their respective opponents, they won't be able to advance to the playoffs.

One game for this season zuihou. The NBA official made a promotional video early.

This one was named "Suspense Waiting for You to Reveal!" The blood of the fans who watched the promotional video was boiling, and everyone was looking forward to the arrival of April 18.

Several key matches have also been arranged by several major TV stations in the United States to broadcast live in the United States, and the live broadcast rights of the Cleveland Cavaliers and Orlando Magic games were won by ESPN. Wharton and Hoffman also arrived in Cleveland on April 17 for a commentary assignment for the battle in focus.

"Welcome to "Hoop Shijie", I'm your friend Erin. Andrews, the 2006-2007 regular season is coming to an end, and I think every fan is crazy about it and looking forward to the upcoming playoffs. ”

Erin. Andrews wears a well-cut slim women's suit. However, the white shirt in the suit has a larger neckline than before, not too deep but attractive enough to make countless men's eyes unable to take their eyes off it.

"Golden State will win, and the gangs will win!" A beautiful blonde woman points to her T-sleeve chest.

"BD will definitely blow up that group of shit, we will definitely make it to the playoffs, definitely!" Fans with dark yellow faces yelling at the camera.

Just on the side, a fan wearing a blue wig squeezed up: "That group of cowboys in Dallas, they're going to get stuck in the Oracle quagmire, long live Golden State!" ”

……

"Look at these fans, they're all crazy about tonight's game, and I think there's going to be a bloody game in the Oracle Center half an hour from here, and this is the Golden State situation, let's look at Oklahoma, the Hornets vs. the Suns. A confrontation of super defenders. ”

Accompanied by Erin. Andrews's words, the camera cuts to the outside of the Oklahoma Arena. Almost the same as the Golden State Warriors, fans entered the stadium one after another, while two or three thousand fans without tickets gathered in the square outside the arena and waited in front of the large LED screen.

The cameras switch one by one, and the teams that had an absolute fate tonight all made their fans go crazy.

"Tonight belongs to all the players, and even more so to these crazy and persistent fans, Zuihou let's set our sights on Cleveland, where there is a game of the pinnacle ......"

Erin. Andrews's right hand clenched into a fist, and people couldn't help but worry about whether the buttons of her suit would hold up.

The picture flashed to the quick loan center in Cleveland, which can accommodate 20,562 people, and the quick loan center was already full.

Most of the fans wore the uniform T-sleeves of the Cavaliers' home jersey, and it felt like they were on the stage of the extremely competitive playoffs.

A small number of Orlando Magic fans, as well as Chinese Americans and Chinese students from Cleveland or nearby, also came here, becoming outliers in this sea of knights.

On the court, the Magic and Cavaliers are practicing shooting in their respective halves as the battle of the spotlight kicks off at 8 a.m. New York time.

Originally, this game involved the question of who will be second in the East and West, not to mention Linson and LeBron. The contradictions between James that were infinitely magnified by reporters.

Nicknamed LeBron. James Nanny Mike. Brown and Stan. Van Gundy was also in the middle of a tangle early on, and he was also thinking about the opponent in the first round of the playoffs, although if the Cavaliers can win this game, it means that if the Magic can also enter the second round, then the Cavaliers can have a valuable home-court advantage over the Magic.

But this premise is also based on the fact that the opponent is not the Miami Heat, and despite the poor form of the defending champion Miami Heat, who knows if this group of old guys will break out in the playoffs.

"The temperature of the quick loan center seems to be a little high today, and I can already smell the smell of gunpowder, look at the crowded fast loan center." Bill. Wharton said with a smile.

Bill. Hoffman, who was next to Wharton, smiled and continued: "It's natural, 82 games are coming to an end here, and it's a complicated end, I studied the results of the match before the game and I felt that my head was not enough, it was a bit complicated." What's more, this game is Wood. Lin and LeBron. James' showdown. I felt the young liliang. ”

During the pre-match commentary on the commentary seat. The live director's camera searched for the audience at the Quick Loan Center, but unfortunately he couldn't find anyone who excited him, except for James's mother.

"Wood and LeBron came together and both were laughing? Who said that there is a great contradiction between them. Hoffman looked at James and Linson and said.

"Tonight, 1:1!"

“1:1？” Lin Sen was slightly stunned and laughed, "I want to become 2:0." ”

"See you in the game!" James smiled and turned to leave.

Lin Sen looked at James's sturdy figure, shrugged, and also turned and walked towards the players' tunnel.

If he hadn't been traded, he would have welcomed James at home to Minneapolis after All-Star Weekend this season, but that opportunity was lost because he was confirmed to be sent to Orlando in the game against the Cavaliers.

And the Orlando Magic had played three games with the Cavaliers for more than a month before Linson's arrival, and Linson's chance to play against James's Cavaliers on behalf of the Magic was only tonight.

James' meaning told him not to take the victory away from Cleveland. How could Lin Sen easily succumb to it, even if it was not good on his lips, so Lin Sen shouted "2:0." ”

At the moment Stan. Van Gundy and Mike. Brown was also checking the assistant coach's communication equipment, and before that, they had determined that as long as the situation on the Heat side was clear, then they would fight to the end, and if the Heat had lost the rhythm, then they would stay strong.

Pat. Riley is also thinking about how to play against the Clippers, who must win to have a glimmer of hope for the playoffs.

For this point Pat. Riley is a little worried about this group of veterans, and if they lose, they could fall to eighth in the East.

In that case, the Heat will have to face the Detroit Pistons, who are the first in the East, and although the Detroit Pistons put Big Ben Wallace in Chicago before this season, the Pistons' strength is undoubted, and such a match is something he absolutely does not want to see. In contrast, he still prefers to face the Knights and the Magic.

However, the outcome of the game was not controlled by the heat at all, once the Washington Wizards beat the New Jersey Nets in Zuihou. Then the Heat can only try their best to beat the Clippers, if they can't rely on the Nets' 2:1 against the Heat, the Heat can only rank eighth in the East.

So and Stan. Van Gundy, Mike. Brown also asked the assistant coach to prepare the communication tools early so that he could be the first to know about the Nets and Wizards and the Cavaliers and Magic games.

As the DJ sounded like nothing else, the Magic players trotted out of the tunnel one by one, and they were greeted by loud boos.

When Lin Sen heard his name, the stadium was already full of boos outside the players' tunnel.

Smiling, Lin Sen raised his head and stepped out.

The moment Lin Sen ran out of the players' tunnel, the boos from the quick loan center reached the highest decibels.

However, Lin Sen heard a particularly kind voice in the midst of this huge boo, and although it was small, Lin Sen really heard it.

The right hand was raised high and waved twice in the air, and the boos of the quick loan center became even louder, and the cheering sound mixed with the huge boos still existed tenaciously.

'From the boos we know that Wood is the most dangerous for the visitors right now, and that's what a superplayer should be treated for. Hoffman said with a smile.

"Obviously yes, but I remember that the last time Wood was here for the Timberwolves against the Cavaliers was the two of us commenting live, but this time it didn't seem to be as exciting as the last time." Bill. Wharton said, looking at the audience images flashing on the big screen.

"Apparently yes, last time I remember Wood kissing a nine-ball diva." Hoffman laughed.

At this time, the lights of the Quick Loan Center dimmed again, and the voices of the fans in the stadium changed from boos to cheers.

The Cavaliers came out one by one amid the cheers, and when James played in Zuihou, the cheers reached the highest decibels, and the boos sent to Linson were completely two extremes.

"Orlando and Cleveland have been rotating players for the first few games, so let's take a look at the starting lineups for tonight in today's game about who will finish second in the East." Bill. Wharton looked at the roster of players.

"The Cavaliers' starting center is still Lithuanian Igoskas, and power forward Drew Murphy. Gooden, small forward is LeBron. James. Shooting guard Larry. Hughes. Organizing guard Eli. Snow. ”

Hoffman followed Bill. Wharton's words continued: "The Orlando Magic's starting center tonight is Dwight. Howard. However, the power forward still maintains the Turk Tekoglu instead of Chris, who has already paid in the last game. Weber.

The small forward is Azubuke, and the shooting guard Carlos. Arroyo, the playmaker guard is Wood. Lin, this lineup is the same as the last game, but who will defend LeBron? Rookie Azubuk? It doesn't seem realistic. ”

In the commentary bench, the starters of both sides stepped onto the pitch. Van Gundy and Mike. Instead of standing on the sidelines as usual, Brown sat off the court.

"It's not a lot of it, is it because both coaches are confident in the game? It's clear that they all know the intricacies of this game. I guess the climax of this game will be until the zuihou section, when the results of the other games are about to be released. ”

Bill. Wharton said with a smile as several small windows appeared on his computer in the commentary box, which were the windows for the live broadcast of several other key games.

"Toot!"

The head referee of the game, bald referee Jamal. Crawford took the ball and the players from both sides took their positions.

Crawford glanced at both players and stood in the center circle. Howard and Igoskas stood on either side of the midline of the center circle.

Igskas naturally knew he might not be able to win on the jump ball, and the ball was thrown into the air by Crawford after a whistle.

Dwight. Howard sprang up like a rocket and swept the ball out with sheer oddity.

Lin Sen jumped up and took the ball into his hands, and the Cleveland Cavaliers immediately retreated quickly.

Despite the fact that before this game Mike. Brown stressed the importance of playing according to the instructions on the sidelines at all times during the game, but the players on the court, especially LeBron. James, Larry. Hughes didn't want to lose to each other. At least don't want to be left behind until the game is clearly indicated.

And Lin Sen also doesn't want to lose to James, although there is still a big gap between him and James at this time.

Lin Sen dribbled the ball through the half. When he was still two or three meters away from the three-point line, James stood on the three-point line.

"It looks like LeBron is defending Wood himself, and this kind of defensive arrangement is actually very good, after all, Kailaner is not tall, and it is enough to defend with Larry." Hoffman said as he looked at James.

At the same time that the Cavaliers and Magic kicked off, the other 14 games were also played.

Arroyo ran over and Linson passed the ball over, but Arroyo immediately passed the ball back to Linsen.

Lin Sen was about to pick up the pass and immediately accelerated, but James was not fooled at all, which made Lin Sen have to give up the plan to break through.

"What, aren't you disappointed?" James said with an eyebrow.

"I can't talk about it." Lin Sen responded with a smile, holding the ball between his waist and abdomen with both hands, and raised his head to make the most basic triple threat move.

All eyes were on the two men facing each other outside the three-point line, and the Cleveland fans interrupted Linson with boos to cheer for James.

"It's not important in front of this competition, so I'll do it myself!"

With the thought in his mind, Lin Sen's right foot quickly poked towards the left side of James's body, and such a tentative step did not fool James at all.

In the face of Lin Sen's three consecutive tentative steps, James did not move any footsteps.

"Wood's tentative steps didn't pay off, and LeBron's defensive improvement this season is so obvious, and with his physicality and attitude, LeBron can become the most feared outside guard in the league over time." Hoffman looked at James, who was staring at Lin Sen closely, and exclaimed.

Lin Sen quickly withdrew his right foot that he poked out, and his body bowed, at this time, Lin Sen's body straightened violently, and his right foot poked out again, but did not probe to the left side of James's body again, but directly pointed at his right front, and at the same time quickly raised the ball with both hands.

James, who was unmoved by Lin Sen's tentative steps several times before, finally moved this time.

James stepped forward with his right foot, and his right hand was raised in the air.

And Lin Sen instantly put the ball away, slapped the ball, and probed his right foot directly to the right side of James's body.

James snorted coldly in his heart, although he fell for Lin Sen, it didn't mean that his defense failed.

The raised right hand did not retract, the right foot quickly retreated, followed by a quick sliding step, and hit Lin Sen with his chest to pass through his defense.

James's liliang is very big, and Lin Sen is in a fast breakthrough again, and under James's collision, Lin Sen's center of gravity shook and his speed slowed down.

And James immediately seized the opportunity of Lin Sen's speed to slow down, and once again took a half-sliding step, completely sticking to Lin Sen with his body.

He believes that as long as Lin Sen wants to continue to break through, then he will definitely be able to withstand Lin Sen, and as long as Lin Sen dares to make a move, he doesn't mind starting his game with a hot block.

Everyone thinks that the best result for Lin Sen is passing, and only in this way is the most rational and correct choice.

However, Linson's stubborn temperament has also risen, and Linsen, like Kobe Arenas, is also paranoid in his personality on the court, and Linsen does not think that he has to pass the ball in such a situation.

Since you can't use your speed to kill Liliang, then simply get out of the way, thinking of this, Lin Sen's left hand slapped the ball and at the same time withdrew with his left foot to the side and back, and there was a gap between him and James in an instant.

However, James didn't leave enough time for Lin Sen to crash into him quickly.

Boom!

The center of gravity that hit Lin Sen was messed up again, but Lin Sen didn't do it the same once, but instead smiled at the corner of his mouth.

With a bowed right foot and a step that looked like he was about to force a breakthrough again, James immediately moved his feet, but he soon realized that Lin Sen was faking it.

Lin Sen took another step back and slammed the ball with both hands.

James immediately pounced, but when he jumped he immediately realized that he had jumped too early.

Lin Sen jumped up when James began to fall, and James could not do anything but watch Lin Sen throw the ball in front of him.

"Wood shook up LeBron and hit a two-pointer straight high, and it was a great opportunity!" Bill. Wharton shouted as he looked at the jumping Linson.

Looking at the basket in the distance, Lin Sen's fingers flicked the ball quickly, and the ball left Lin Sen's palm and flew out.

The ball arced through the air and steadily drilled into the basket.

"I scored!" Lin Sen looked at James and said with a chuckle. (To be continued......)
