Chapter 160: Best Coach of the Season: I can't control it
Allen Iverson, who averaged 6.2 assists per game in his career and has averaged more than seven assists per game in a season;
Dwyane Wade, who averaged 5.4 assists per game in his career, and the highest number of assists per game was in the 06~07 season and this season, he averaged 7.5 assists per game;
And Maddy, Kobe, Michael Jordan, Arenas......
Including LeBron James......
Any player with good breakthrough ability will not have less assists in his career!
The reason for this is that they are able to attract bags and help their teammates create open spaces.
And what teammates have to do is just drop tactical positions.
Like Tekoglu in this round.
Li Wan didn't find his position in this round, because he knew that as long as he saw Yin Godala coming to make up for the defense, then Turkoglu must be waiting on the wing of the right three-point line.
The others are similar.
Seeing Andre Miller running over, Levan only needed to give the ball to the left wing three-point line, and Raja Bale must have opened his bow and waited in that position.
To say that the 76ers are really miserable......
When it comes to defensive mobility, this team is definitely at the top of the league.
But they met the magic team that can pull the most.
There is no team in the league that can pull more offensive space than they can when attacking.
Even the 76ers' "fast men......
It is also impossible to complete a timely change of defense or reverse run.
There are 4 upstream teams in the East in this year's playoffs, it can be said that no matter which one they meet, the 76ers can pass two moves, and they have no hope of winning just by meeting the Magic!
"Huh!"
No, in the next round, the 76ers, who don't believe in evil, still chose to wrap up when Li Wan broke through, this time it was Lewis who came out of the vacant position, and scored another three-pointer, and the point difference came to more than double digits again, almost 15 points......
Tony was so desperate that he rubbed his face, again and again, and when his hand left his face, his whole face turned red, which showed how hard he tried.
It could also be angry......
He didn't want to be a head coach anymore, he suddenly wanted to open a hair salon.
Prepare a fruit bowl of 138, 298, and 398......
Isn't it beautiful?
After Lewis hit the three-pointer, Stan Van Gundy started one after another.
Tony just wanted to shout: On the bench, I have Admiral Louis Williams. Just look at Stan Van Gundy on the opposite side and play the "king card" on the bench - Jamal Crawford!
What is "Tianke"?
This special one is called "Tianke"!
From the starting lineup to the bench, they are either restrained or have a lower grade than others.
So much so that at the end of the first quarter, the Magic easily led by 14 points at 37-23.
Li Wan scored 12 points and 4 assists in the first quarter, and 23 of the Magic's 37 points were related to him. Play that is called an eye-catcher.
Stan Van Gundy is even more determined for tonight's tactics!
Let Li Wanlai attack with the ball!
No, that's not right......
Not just tonight, but the whole series, all of them were played according to this set of tactics.
Li Wan did not disappoint Stan Van Gundy either, and for the rest of the day, he continued to play steadily in the first quarter.
On the opposite side, he plays alone, whether it is Green or Miller, in front of him, the threat that can be formed is actually similar to a chair.
If the opposite side is trapped, he will pass the ball, and the Amway Arena will have a "three-point rain" from time to time tonight!
Thanks to the very smooth start of the game, everyone on the Magic team came quickly tonight.
At the end of the third quarter, the Magic scored 14 three-point goals......
At this time, the NBA playoffs are four short of the record of a team hitting three points in a single game......
The "blue ocean" of the scene surged, and all the Orlandos present tonight stood up one after another to welcome the arrival of the historic moment with fierce body rhythms and screams!
The difference between the two teams has already exceeded 25 points at this moment, and when the 76ers came on the court in the fourth quarter, they all came up with their heads down, and their eyes were dark.
Before the game began, they must have believed in the light......
Altman......
Also coming.
Can......
It's the special Ultraman Azuki!
This made the Orlando "monster" beat up and pouted his ass!
Can't fight, can't fight, this really can't be beaten!
Now they just want to go home and have some cheese burger to comfort their bodies and minds......
The 76ers didn't resist, and the Magic's 18th three-pointer came very quickly.
At 3 minutes and 42 seconds in the fourth quarter, the total number of three-pointers made by the Magic team in this game officially tied the NBA all-time record for total three-pointers made in a single playoff game.
At 5 minutes and 18 seconds, with Lewis hitting another three-pointer, a new NBA all-time playoff record for total three-pointers in a single game was born!
The cheers at the scene came and went, one after another.
The Orlando who watched the excitement also played the "human wave......
In fact, the Magic team did not play well during this time, and before hitting the 19th three-pointer of the game, the Magic team had missed 3 consecutive three-point shots.
Even after hitting this three-pointer, the Magic still trailed by three points by a score of 4-7.
It's just that......
98 to 76!
This is the score of both teams now.
Although the 76ers have caught up with 3 points, they still have a 22-point gap to chase from the Magic!
With their current efficiency of chasing points, I am afraid that before the end of the game, they will at most turn the difference of 22 points into 15 or 6 points......
Don't panic at all!
However, this is the mentality of Magic fans right now.
After breaking the record, the players of the Magic team immediately returned to their original style of play and rhythm, and the scoring efficiency of the 76ers fell into the upper hand again.
In the end, the game was over, and the Magic won the first game of the series with a score of 112-87, 25 points on their home court.
Li Wan, who played a strong performance in the first quarter, had 36 points, 7 rebounds, 14 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
Shot 50% from the field, 40% from three-point range, and 5-of-6 from the free-throw line, 83.3%!
Whether it's efficiency or data, it's very dazzling.
Under his leadership, Turkoglu had 18 points, 5 assists and 5 rebounds;
Lewis made six three-pointers and scored 20 points;
Howard had 20 points, in addition to 12 rebounds and 3 blocks......
The number of rebounds is so small, it was not Li Wan who grabbed it, Li Wan had 2 rebounds out of 7 rebounds, which were offensive rebounds.
Howard had few rebounds in this game, one was to meet the "Haitian Mengman" Dalem Porter, the opponent was a chess opponent, and the offensive rebounds were a little less, only 3, in addition to the more important ......
The Magic team is so accurate tonight!
He didn't even get a chance to brush up on the second rebound.
Li Wan: I have to blame the main thing, if I am still as efficient as last year, Howard will have at least 15 rebounds tonight! If I had the "Mamba Spirit", at least 18 rebounds!
76ers head coach Toney said "this is terrible" five times in a row in an interview after the game, and when a reporter asked him what he was dissatisfied with the team, he couldn't say anything.
Well, it's not that I can't say it, but there are too many problems, and in terms of the 76ers' performance against the Magic tonight, they may not be able to win in the development league.
Miller also sat in front of the media with a low morale.
In this game, his statistics were 13 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists, and at first glance, except for scoring, other statistics are not much different from usual.
But if you look at his data and take a closer look, you will find that the gap with his usual is too big.
He averaged 47.3 percent shooting per game during the regular season, but only 33.3 percent tonight......
Besides, he usually averages 2.4 turnovers and 6.5 assists per game, but tonight, he delivered 6 assists and had 4 turnovers!
The gap with him in the regular season is so obvious, not to mention the No. 1 position opposite, which is the best in the game for the Magic team!
It's no wonder he's in a good mood.
But the black reporter in front of him with natural curls deliberately asked, as if he hadn't seen it: "Do you still think that Li Wan said big things before the game?" ”
Miller looked at him with a frown.
Why should black people bother black people?
We're bro, don't you know?
For the person in front of him who "doesn't understand" the rules, he wants to scold, "Brother Ni, you are enough!" ”
Eventually, he responded to the question with a roll of his eyes.
Then he spoke: "Next question!" ”
The black reporter, however, didn't notice that Miller was in an upset mood, and asked, "Do you think this series can play more than six games?" ”
“…… fxxk you, can you stop asking such stupid questions? ”
He finally couldn't hold back and scolded.
Other reporters hurried to record, and the flashes of light flickered non-stop at this time.
"Hit in the eye, Andre Miller explodes after the game!"
"36 points and 14 assists, the impact of the new generation of the league made Andre Miller lose control of his emotions!"
"25 points defeated 76ers, Li Wan's 'wild words' came true again!"
……
Early the next morning, Andre Miller's photo of the media exploding foul language became a picture for many media outlets to cover the game.
Andre Miller also liked to mention the league's penalty sheet.
Purse - $10,000......
This wave, this wave is "losing and losing money"!
Andre Miller has had a resounding nickname on the other side of the ocean since "Karen Mok of Philadelphia": Third Uncle!
Oran Multimedia was pleased to cover the game.
Li Wan's outstanding performance, as well as the team's performance that broke NBA history, made them even more excited about the Magic's performance in this year's playoffs!
However, the outside world reported more about the game between the Bulls and the Hawks.
Derrick Rose, the new No. 1 pick, scored 36 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals in his career playoff debut, leading the team to win the first game of the series on the home court of the Hawks.
His score also equaled the single-game score of Li Wan's all-time rookie playoff debut, which he just set new last year.
Of course, compared to Li Wan, who could still brush a few more points on the court at that time, he only allowed his single-game score to reach 36 points in the last 30 seconds.
But that didn't stop the Chicago media from boasting about Derrick Rose.
Their angles......
Derrick Rose got that statistic against the Hawks, who had a better regular season record than the Bulls.
They are stronger opponents.
And because of this......
Derrick Rose's stats are even harder!
Oran multimedia replied without hesitation: "So let's see, what kind of performance he can show next, the madness of Li Wan's rookie season is not just that!" ”
This sentence is directly lore!
36 points in a playoff debut is good......
But compared to helping the team reach the Eastern Conference Finals in his rookie season, it's still a bit unsightly!
Especially......
Li Wan's two ordinary performances of the "basketball god" in the playoffs last season were even more astonishing!
The media in Chicago were still unconvinced: "Then we'll see!" ”
They really think Derrick Rose is going to bring a similar crazy show......
The media also asked Lee the next day about his evaluation of Derrick Rose's opening game.
Li Wan praised his performance: "He's a very good rookie and he's showing this league what he can do, what style of player he is...... It's just a pity that he was the champion in '08, not the champion in '06, or earlier, otherwise, he would definitely get more attention! ”
Affirm, then negate.
Li Wan didn't even notice it himself, and when he was interviewed, his speech became more and more "bird-like".
Li Wan: I'll say it again, Huaxia Big Bird X, American Li Wan √!
The reporters who interviewed him were also dazzled by his remarks.
Li Wan's words are easy to understand: Derrick Rose is good, but not as good as me, and even because of my appearance, it makes him appear less conspicuous!
This remark caused a heated discussion in the outside world.
However, no one can deny that although Derrick Rose also made his playoff debut this time and scored 36 points in a single game, the heated discussion caused by it was indeed not as good as last season's Li Wan......
This is the irreparable gap between the second person who eats crabs and the first person who eats crabs.
The first person to eat it, others will say to him: Wow, how can this person be so brave! I really want to take him to see some good health.
And the second person who eats, although others will also think he is very brave, but he is only very brave.
At the end of the day, if Derrick Rose doesn't score 36 points, but 37 points, then he may be about the same as last year's Lee Wan!
Don't look at it as only 1 point, it's so different.
It's just that others think that what Li Wan said makes sense and is someone else's business, and the reaction of the Chicago media is to cover their ears: I don't listen, I don't listen!
Myths confuse the public!
I liked you a lot!
Right now......
Waiting to be cleaned up by my giegie!
ESPN once again showed what it means to be the "king of popularity", the latest issue of the "round table", fifteen experts sat together to discuss: whether Li Wan and Derrick Rose will become new NBA rivals!
The final verdict is:
Yes!
There is no way, the two of them, one in 07 and one in 08, both won the "Best Rookie", and they both entered the playoffs in their rookie season, and they scored a record high of 36 points in their debut......
Add to that the fact that both are defenders, so many similarities, how can people not put them together for comparison?
In fact, more people think that this comparison is just beginning!
In the West, the Lakers easily defeated the Jazz 105-93.
Kirilenko faced Kobe Bryant and once again became "Kiri Leakage"......
Boozer met Pau Gasol on the inside line, and he could only obediently bow his head and say: "Sister-in-law, you are so good!" ”
There is one game left between the Trail Blazers and the Mavericks.
The score was close, 99-94.
In the end, the Trailblazers relied on Luo Yin's final word and narrowly won by 5 points!
However, what caused more talk after the game was the confrontation between Aldridge and Nowitzki.
At the beginning of this year, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said in an interview: "I know there's a kid in the league who plays a lot like me right now, and he's ...... in Portland."
Aldridge thus became the "second generation of Abdul-Jabbar" in the opinion of "Tiangou".
And against the league's long-established power forward, Dirk Nowitzki, he also showed his scoring ability.
Although he failed to defend Nowitzki and allowed the "German tank" to score 25 points, he himself also handed in a 20-point answer sheet, shooting 48% from the field!
As the No. 4 position with projection as the means of finishing, this hit rate is really not low! It was also he and Nowitzki who blew each other up, so that the Trail Blazers didn't need to put much effort into the No. 4 position.
It's just that......
Most of the media were not too surprised by the outcome of the match.
After all, the opponent is the Mavericks who led 2-0 in the 06 Finals and were reversed by the Heat for 4 consecutive games, and in the first round of 07, they were beaten by the Warriors' "Black Eight"!
When this team is in the upper reaches of the West, it will be overturned.
Now downstream, being turned over, that's no longer normal?
It's just that Li Wan, the traverser, knows......
The Mavericks played by the Trail Blazers are really not ordinary.
Originally, they were sixth in the West, but in the first round against the Spurs, who were third in the West, they eliminated the latter cleanly 4-1.
The strength is actually the final top 4 teams in the West.
It was much harder for the Trail Blazers to win them than it was for the Rockets to win against the Spurs yesterday.
Speaking of which, Tim Duncan's "blood bar" is indeed thick enough, and he has also been "Black Six" and "Black Eight", but he is still undoubtedly the No. 1 forward in NBA history.
To say why......
One person, one city!
6 finals, 5 championship trophies!
Three finals MVP trophies!
There are also 2 regular season MVP trophies in a row!
……
What is called "President Hill in the power forward position"?
It is no exaggeration to say that the league's current "big four" and the other three combined honors are not enough for him to play......
Such a person is "Black Six" and "Black Eight", what is it?
Just like Michael Jordan didn't win the championship in the first eight years of his career, as long as he enters the finals later, he will definitely be the final winner, and he directly made everyone forget his bad luck in the first eight years with two "triple championships".
Even, some people believe that this is the best interpretation of "if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight"!
It can also be seen from these two that if you want to have a strong position in the end, you have to show the corresponding dominance......
It's just that "All-time No. 1 power forward" Tim Duncan has really not had a good season.
The first is that the team's transition has not been smooth, and in '07 Tony Parker became the ultimate Finals MVP, and the rights of the entire Spurs team began to transition to the outside.
But two years later, Tim Duncan is still needed to step up at critical moments, just like the second game of the series against the Rockets, in the last 3 minutes and 15 seconds of the fourth quarter, the Rockets chased the difference to 3 points left, and when the team urgently needed someone to step up, Tony Parker handed over the answer sheet was 2 irons and 1 kneeling.
It's not hard enough......
In the end, it was Tim Duncan who logged into the former "Stone Buddha" tuba and hit two consecutive 45-degree angles to help the Spurs get through 98-96 on their home court.
Avoided a two-game losing streak at home.
Interestingly......
When Rockets fans saw the team lose Game 2, they were relieved. The series was 2-0 up, and in their opinion, it was not as stable as 1-1.
The Rockets, on their side, were not too disappointed to lose Game 2, and for them, a 1-1 score was acceptable. And then there's their two home stadiums!
The Houston media shouted at Spurs for Yao Ming: "We will treat you well with tomatoes!" ”
In the other games of the same day, the Nuggets won two straight games on their home court before moving on to New Orleans.
When Li Wan saw this news, his first reaction was:
The big one is coming!
Chris Paul, this kid is really, he has a hard time when he is young~
In the East, the Celtics continued to fiddle with the Pistons, leading 2-0 at home;
Wade and LeBron once again fought "the mountains are edgeless, the heaven and the earth are together, and they dare to be with the king", but this time Wade had the last laugh, and led the team to defeat LeBron with 34 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists with 37 points, rewriting the score to 1-1!
Mo Williams, who played well on three-pointers in the last game, played erratically this game, shooting only 1 of 6.
This made Cavaliers fans angry:
"I can't even score an open three-pointer, so I'm an All-Star!"
"If this guy doesn't come to the Cavaliers, can he be an All-Star?"
"Seriously, no one wants such a person to come to CBA!"
LeBron probably also saw these remarks, in order to help his teammates relieve pressure, and at the same time show his core spirit, the next day in an interview, he said: "We didn't play well in this game, it's not one person's responsibility, what we need to do is to adjust the state well, throw the ball that is not thrown, we will win, I have no doubt about this!" ”
His gentleness made a group of fans teary-eyed:
"Woo, my brother is so warm, he still speaks for others after being like this!"
"When the rest of the Cavaliers hear this, they should be ashamed to commit suicide!"
"Listen to LeBron and shoot that damn ball in, is it hard to have such a big vacancy? I'm going up to vote better than you! ”
……
The Magic continued their series with the 76ers that night.
Compared to the pre-game of the first game of the series, tonight's Amway Arena was much more fun. Many fans swayed their bodies passionately to the live music, releasing their inner enthusiasm.
Before the series even started, although they had enough confidence in the Magic team, they couldn't help but be a little worried.
What if I can't beat it?
But after the first game of the series, they weren't worried at all.
On the contrary, they were a little worried that if the 76ers were to suffer another massacre similar to the previous two days tonight, would their fragile hearts still be able to hold on......
As a result, the Magic team did not disappoint them at all, and the game was still played from the start.
Li Wan had 22 points and 7 assists in the half, leading the team to a huge 20-point difference.
Although the 76ers did not put the main force off the court in the second half, the few brothers on the court said that they were "walking dead".
One by one, they were confused, as if they didn't know what they were doing!
Just wait for the bell to ring and take them on their way!
"Both!"
Finally, their long-awaited "bell ringing" rang.
Their expressions were also a little relieved.
Well......
Only a hint.
Because the thought of having to play two more games against the Magic team in the next two games suddenly made them a little painful.
Is there anything worse in this world than waiting to die?
For the 76ers, there is......
That's a series against the Magic!
What?
You say we're going to have home field advantage next?
Scold~
Naive!
Do you think the gap between us can be bridged by home advantage?
After the two games of the series, the 76ers have a full self-awareness of their own strength and the gap with the Magic team!
Philadelphia fans seem to think about the same as them, and in the third game of the series, the 76ers, who finally returned to their home court, only had an attendance rate of about 7 percent.
That's quite a high attendance rate in the regular season.
Not every city has the size of a ball market like New York or Los Angeles.
However, this is certainly not a high attendance rate in the playoffs.
After all, the playoffs are the "feast" of the NBA, and both the level of competition and the intensity are much higher than those of the regular season.
For a fan of a team, it's really hard to say no to such a feast.
Unless......
He knew in advance that this was not a "feast", but a "torture"!
In contrast, Philadelphia fans are quite loyal, knowing that the opponent is a mountain that the 76ers cannot overcome, and nearly 14,000 fans came to watch the game.
If this is Houston, I'm afraid that it will be less than 6 percent.
And once the score is behind in the half quarter, at least about 3 percent of the fans will be gone!
Not just any fan is willing to accompany the team through the lowest point.
The choice for more fans is to come back when you are strong......
Tony didn't forget that he was a head coach until he actually went to be a barber. Back in the first game at home, he opted for a change of formation.
Take Yoon Godala to deal with Lee Wan.
And then......
Philadelphia has received a Magic team launched by the Turkoglu organization.
Under this system, many of the Magic's offensive initiations, as well as the conversion ball, and the final endpoint, are very different.
And Philadelphia's entire tactical targeting is based on the first two games as a template reference.
So......
86 to 56......
This is 5 minutes and 15 seconds into the third quarter, and the Magic team opened up the difference.
Tony's change of formation really worked for his tactics.
At least Li Wan's data so far is no longer the same as before, scoring and assisting.
Although he still scored 25 points tonight, his assists were only 5!
Look......
Suddenly it was not so exaggerated.
Just took Yoongodala to deal with Li Wan, and there was a big hole on the Magic's flank that couldn't be filled.
Turkoglu used his slow "European step" to break through the pass again and again, hitting 13 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists, helping the team open up a 30-point difference!
Stan Van Gundy really didn't expect that according to their regular season play, the Magic would have to fight against the 76ers...... He felt a little embarrassed.
It's all mixed up in this alliance, and it's a bit ...... to slaughter like this
It's so cool!
Li Wan was not so surprised by this.
Again, when Turkoglu holds the ball, he can exert his full strength, and when he cooperates with Li Wan, he appears more on the court as an off-ball pitcher, and his ability to hold the ball and play alone is greatly weakened, and some of his impact basket scores are invisible......
Li Wan is different, whether he holds the ball or not, he is very good at both without the ball and with the ball.
At best, we'll lose some assists.
But it has to do with the percentage of possession......
The proportion of ball possession has gone up, and the number of assists has increased; The percentage of finishes is more than the percentage of possession, and the number of assists is down.
There is no limit to strength.
Otherwise, this is the only way to play the most thorough way for the Magic team to play!
With the loss of this change of formation, "Mr. Tony" was completely rotten, and in the fourth game of the series, he didn't even call a timeout. Just stand on the sidelines and watch.
The 76ers' players rotated on and off the court according to the pre-game arrangement.
"Phew!"
After Howard grabbed two rebounds, he suddenly burst out and completed a violent dunk across Hellam Porter.
In the dreary home court of the 76ers, there was a slight whisper.
"Warcraft" has a hearty smile on his face. He also excitedly made a "cradle" action, and by the way, handed over his "child" to Lewis next to him.
Lewis took his place and continued to put the "child" to sleep......
He was so excited!
This Meng man......
Finally conquered by me!
In the first game of the series, Howard had 20 points and 12 rebounds, and Damham Porter, who was opposite him, had 12 points and 14 rebounds.
"Warcraft" did not play the suppressive power of the league's No. 1 center......
However, there was no irritation and frustration in Howard's eyes that night, but an unusually obvious eagerness to try.
Daim Potter was so rigid that he was so competitive in conquering this man! - I no longer think about Howard every day who is the boss of the Magic team between him and Li Wan, happiness is so unpretentious.
Now, he did!
In the fourth game of the series, it is now 1 minute and 14 seconds in the fourth quarter, and Howard's second attack after grabbing the board, after scoring the dunk, his score in this game has come to 24 points, and his number of rebounds has come to 14!
And the data of the "Haitian center" at this time is a miserable 8 points and 6 rebounds......
Now the gap is completely widened!
Dalem Potter picked up the ball numbly.
At this time, the difference between the two teams has reached 28 points.
Not everyone can continue to maintain high morale in the face of such a point difference.
Not to mention, this is the fourth time they have faced such a situation in 7 days, even if they have the fighting spirit at the beginning, they will be gone again and again.
It's like cheating, it's painful to be caught the first time, and the second and third time......
I'm used to it!
The buzz of the rescue 76ers team rang off 10 minutes later.
At this time, Li Wan and other main forces of the magic team had already gone to rest.
Hearing the sound of "all", they were unhurried and high-fived each other to celebrate.
Expression......
Actually, I don't see much excitement.
The gap between the opponents is too big, and there is no resistance at all.
If such a team wins, there's nothing to be happy about, right?
Andre Miller got off the field, packed up his things, and his eyes unconsciously glanced at Li Wan, a little more complicated.
After four games, he averaged 13 points, 3.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1 steal and 4.5 turnovers per game, shooting 38.9% from the field and 1 of 5 three-pointers;
Li Wan averaged 32.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 10.5 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.5 blocks per game, shooting 53% from the field, 43% from three-point range, and 88.8% from the free throw line;
As the 8th pick in the first round in '99, Andre Miller has played against all of the league's current No. 1 picks and has never been suppressed so badly......
At the age of 33, he feels more or less old at the moment!
What he didn't know was that he averaged 21.2 points, 6.8 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.5 steals per game in this year's playoffs, playing the best playoff performance of his entire career. - Don't ask how the 1.88-meter Miller grabbed 6.8 rebounds, but ask, who doesn't know how to play in the sewers?
This time, he played so poorly purely because of Li Wan and the Magic team's natural restraint on him.
First of all, in the face of Li Wan's height and arm span and excellent physical fitness, Miller's best back play can't be taken out at all.
Miller, who can only break through, faces outside players like Raga Bell and Leewan, and faces high-mobility defenders like Howard...... What could he do?
He's desperate too!
4-0……
The Magic easily eliminated the Philadelphia 76ers and reached the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs for the second year in a row.
"Teacher Tony" did not hesitate to appreciate and appreciate Li Wan after this game: "This guy is really incredible, to be honest, all my impressions of Asian basketball in the past came from Yao, but now, Li Wan has given me another understanding of Asian basketball, this guy belongs to this league, he will have his own legendary story, I am looking forward to his future......"
These words were what he wanted to say in his heart for a long time, but at that time, the 76ers were beaten violently, if he still praised Li Wan like this, I was afraid that the 76ers and the players would be so ashamed that they would commit suicide after listening to his praise!
He didn't want to make such a dry statement.
He also complimented Howard.
After four games, "Warcraft" averaged 22.5 points, 15.5 rebounds and 3.5 blocks per game.
The dominance under the basket has reached the point where it is about to take off.
"Mr. Tony" said bluntly: "The current No. 5 position in the league, there are really few super newcomers like this, the 04 Magic team made the right choice, they gave Howard patience, and it was time for them to enjoy the results!" ”
Stan Van Gundy shook his head and said, "It's not his best, in fact he's a little sick with a stomach, but the gym gives him energy!" ”
"With an average of 56 points, 22 rebounds, 12 assists, 5 blocks and 2.5 steals per game, the Orlando "OK" combination played the Lakers' OK-style game dominance! 》
"4-0 elimination of the 76ers, Li Wan and Howard dominated the series! 》
"Unstoppable combination of inside and outside, the alliance once again ushered in the finale? 》
……
For Li Wan and Howard, "Teacher Tony" praised him hard enough.
But compared to the media reports the next day, it was really "a small thing"!
Remake "OK"!
Dominance!
The finale is here!
But all the words that are used in the big guys and the group can be seen in today's report on the "ok" combination in Orlando.
As described by these media, I don't know, I still think that the Magic team has won the championship......
The exaggeration is obvious!
Fortunately, last year's Magic team had already reached the Eastern Conference Finals, and had 7 games with the Celtics. These overly touted remarks didn't make the two newcomers lose themselves.
Back in Orlando, they were actively engaged in preparing for the game.
76 people are the appetizers.
The opponents they need to solve, are still on the way!
The league has announced General Manager of the Season in the past few days, as well as Head Coach of the Season.
Otis got his wish and received the award......
Many media outlets in Orlando even reported on the incident on their front pages.
After all, the Magic team can have the current glory, and Otis's several operations are definitely a great contribution. Now that he has won the award, he deserves such courtesy.
It's also about letting everyone know that Orlando doesn't treat those who have merit!
If it is mistreated, it means that the credit is not enough!
Well......
Don't look at the small city of Orlando, but the media face here is very big!
The head coach of the season went to Mike Brown of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Although this team is not as strong as it used to be, it does not have the best regular season record in the league.
But the gap between 45 wins and 63 wins is still huge, and it is enough for Mike Brown to win this award.
After Mike Brown knew that he had won the award, he said very modestly: "If it weren't for these players, I wouldn't have won this award, especially LeBron, who is the core of the team, and his performance is really reassuring!" ”
And voila!
And voila!
As an NBA head coach, what is the most indispensable thing?
Expertise?
No!
Compared to this, emotional intelligence is a more important skill!
Judging from Mike Brown's later coaching achievements, he really won this award by familiarizing himself with the book "Emotional Intelligence".
Unfortunately, for a manager, the "Champion Coach" is more useful than the "Best Coach Award".
No matter how good your coaching ability is, and you don't have championship experience, then in the end, slowly, you have to get out of the league.
And those who have championship experience, such as Tyronn Lue......
After class again and again, "class" again and again......
By what?
Isn't it that he took LeBron to win the championship!
So if you really want to say that there are so many awards at the end of the season, the "Best Manager" award is the most goldless. It is also the most worthless.
Because it makes no difference whether you have this honor on your resume or not.
However, having said that, it is somewhat of an honor, and Stan Van Gundy has not won this award yet, this time he was only shortlisted, and he failed to win this award, and he was somewhat unhappy.
Li Wan noticed this.
At the end of the practice, on the way back, he happened to meet Stan Van Gundy in the elevator, and when the elevator was about to arrive, he said to Stan Van Gundy: "Stan, in my heart, you are the best manager......
"I can't control the best manager of the season, but I will make you a champion coach and enjoy the spotlight!"
"Ding!"
Li Wan took the time just right, and just after speaking, the elevator arrived, and when it opened, Li Wan patted Stan Van Gundy on the back: "Go first,?"
See you guys! ”
Stan Van Gundy looked at Li Wan's back in a daze......
Move!
Very impressed!
Li Wan's words made him not know what to say......
As a manager, that's probably the greatest luck, right?
Thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone and completely blocked little Nelson.
