"If you think about the superstars who have made a name for themselves, they've all stumbled in the first round of the playoffs."

"Sophomore O'Neal was kept clean by the Pacers in his first playoff game;

Reggie Miller, who has made the playoffs 13 times, was sent home 0:3 by the 'bad boys' for the first time;

The 'Smiling Assassins' averaged two doubles per game and inevitably fell at the feet of the Knicks;

Luckily, he stole a win in the playoffs for the first time, but it took him four years to breathe the air of the second round.

It took seven years for Minnesota's savior to break through the first-round bottleneck, while Maddie won two scoring titles and still couldn't win a ticket to the second round...... Needless to say. ”

"So, as the absolute core, James, who can break through the first round of the playoffs for the first time in his career, his greatness is undoubted!"

In an ESPN basketball chat, several expert hosts were holding up photos of James swivelling magnesium powder.

With an average of 30+ per game, two triple-doubles, and the remaining games are quasi-triple-doubles, even if he loses, James' data is still very good......

Putting aside the performance in the game, from the data analysis, these experts really see the hope of Xiao Ajan surpassing Danzi.

As for the competition -

"A lot of people may doubt the strength of the Pacers because of their back-to-back losses and their declining playoff results, but you also have to know that they lost to either a championship team or a runner-up team in the previous three years, is it a shame?"

"In the first two games, when James realized he couldn't win with talent alone, he adjusted and learned very quickly, he learned how to trust his teammates and create scoring opportunities for them."

"Think about it in G2, at the last critical moment, James finally distributed the ball to the outside no one Marshall in the middle of the pack, who did not shoot at the first time, but smirked at him, and finally let the team miss the opportunity to equalize in the last moments, otherwise the Cavaliers may win faster."

"James was angry at the time, and everyone could see from the look on his back staring at Marshall, but James is not the kind of Jordan Kobe who doesn't allow his teammates to make mistakes, and he will leave the next opportunity to Marshall, and from that point of view, he has a natural affinity for leaders."

"G3's life-and-death battle, James did not have a shot in the opening half of the quarter, of course, James is so frustrated and Kobe Bryant is fundamentally different, this is also a sign of his maturity, he understands that the victory in the playoffs cannot rely on personal strength alone, this, Jordan took four or five years to understand, and James only took 2 games, from this, you can see how amazing his talent is!"

Wade in front of the TV scratched his cheeks.

Small pupils, big puzzles.

Obviously, he's watched the game, why does he feel that this commentary is still so unfamiliar?

It turns out that the last-minute pot throwing ball is a "natural leader affinity", and it is a "sign of maturity" that the ball has been passed all the time when it is not well defended?

He looked at Mo Wen on the side with some confusion.

Mo Wen yawned a little disappreciatively.

That's where it is.

Isn't it just a 100 million point modification process?

Stars are meant to be brought out.

Average 30+ per game over the first round, don't say it's not exaggerated, it's all black.

Compared to CJB, which couldn't make the playoffs or fell in the first round, Ajan's first-round performance can indeed be called excellent.

No matter what "mature and rational" or "disrespectful" choices and actions he makes in the future, Ajan has only fallen once in the first round in his career, which is not dark.

Mo Wen thought of something for a while, picked up the newspaper of the local media in the morning and rummaged through.

I easily found the sports section, pointed to one place, and handed it to Wade.

There is an article written on it that praises Wade's stinky feet, evaluates someone's completely inaccurate three-point shooting and mid-range shooting that relies on the sky as "top nerve knife", and describes someone's breakthrough as an inexplicable skill that surpasses Jordan's jump shot, and the passion that is enough to "ignite Miami", so he almost gave Wade a crown to bring him.

That bunch of adjectives was like picking them up in an Oxford dictionary.

It also praised Wade as the absolute core of the Heat - because Wade scored the most.

Wade looked at the contents of the newspaper, his expression did not change, and he nodded approvingly. Excluding 1/5 of the complex words that he didn't understand very well and that were not commonly used by blacks, the descriptions in them were quite accurate.

"The article is really well written, very level, which journalist wrote it? I think I can ask him to do an interview with me later! ”

Mo Wen rolled his eyes, let you look in the mirror, you still stinky and beautiful?

"Dwyan, if you want to be truly respectable, you have to learn to be honest!"

He patted Wade on the shoulder meaningfully.

"Ha, where am I being dishonest? Why, don't you think this article is well written? ”

Wade pouted, a man's biceps can not be hard, the waist can not be hard, and the "telescopic belt" can not be hard, but the upper and lower sphincters must be hard!

Ao Fat, who was watching the excitement on the side, curiously walked away the newspaper, and admired it with Walker next to him, and couldn't hold back his laughter after only looking at it twice.

The advantage of the black man's skin was evident at this time, and although Wade had a large cheek, he still couldn't see his blush.

"What are you laughing at, what's so funny!"

"Fuck, Mo, come, come with me to go heads-up! Today, I'll let you see what the true leader of the Heat is! Wade slammed his fist angrily.

"Don't leave yet, what are you looking for?"

"The key to the locker, Shaq, do you see it?" Mo Wen glanced at the lounge, it hadn't been used for a long time, and I forgot where to put the key.

"Hell, I'm talking about basketball, basketball!"

Passing by the lounge, he smiled when he saw the core of the relaxed and playful look, and the face of the assistant teacher who followed him was somewhat worried.

"Mr. Van Gundy, don't we really need to study the knights again? I think they seem to be in good shape in the first round, right? ”

"What is there to study for the Cavaliers, just put James and shoot and it's over."

Looking at the energetic players, Da Fan rubbed his reddened eyeballs and envied the young man's energy.

Entering the playoffs, he started the sleepless video camera mode again, but the subjects of research are only a few teams, the Pistons in the East, the Suns in the West, the Spurs and the Mavericks Lakers.

As for the knights?

Just at a glance to see the head of simple offensive tactics and simple players, still use analysis and research?

Of course, the injury plan still needs to be done.

A few core players could be troublesome if they were injured, and when healthy, no matter how much the media boasted about Ajan's strength and the Cavaliers' tenacity, he wouldn't take it to heart.

……

G6 ended, and most of the first round was divided into winners and losers.

The Spurs won the King without any suspense, and Dazhi, who participated in the playoffs as the main force, relied on long-range fast break and Ceying above the horizontal line to play a good performance on the offensive end, averaging double-doubles per game, and shooting an average of 1.8 three-pointers per game.

Judging from the entire series, his overall performance is better than that of Horry, who is also 3 years and 10 million on the other side.

After 58 melons won a desperate game to avoid being swept away, they were also easily "black six" by the Clippers.

He entered the playoffs three times in three years, and was swept by the gentlemen three times, and the next time the 03 class is at the party, he can only raise his head in front of Bosh.

Melon: Can you blame me, it's all Milicic's fault, it's not him, I'm wearing the championship ring on my hand now! No, I'm probably part of the dynasty team right now!

On the pitch near Wade's house, after seeing Antony's gradual "leaning" defence, Milicic shook his head at him.

"You're strong offensively, but in terms of your defense, I promise that the old man won't give you more playing opportunities than me until garbage time comes."

Iverson and Miller, who were the core under Larry Brown, were leaky in their defense, but their defensive attitude was always in place.

And Anthony, who has gradually developed a superstar temper, pays less attention to defense day by day.

Most intuitively, Cory Magetti, who was opposite him in the playoffs, did not have a free throw whistle and shot 3% higher than in the regular season when the interior defensive intensity increased significantly.

Melon was not convinced, and found Milicic for another afternoon, from the stadium to the boxing gym-

"Gigi (Nuggets general manager), I have a buddy here, and he is very strong at playing, and I feel like we are one of him away from the second round!"

Applying an ice pack to his eyes, Anthony held back his tears and hummed a nasal voice to comfort his general manager.

"Who? Rookie or old bird? Vanderwig on the other end of the phone also came to be interested, and the Nuggets didn't feel any obvious weaknesses in the lineup in the past two years, but the chemistry between the players was not in place, and Anthony could trade it and try it if he had a player he liked.

"The big European guy in my class, the one ahead of me in the draft, Dak Milicic."

Van Dewych, who was in high spirits just now, suddenly withered.

"Hey, hello, are you listening?" Listening to the unresponsiveness on the other end of the phone, Anthony felt a little strange.

"Listening...... Actually, I've asked for hypersonic before, and they're willing to trade. ”

"Really!" Anthony's eyes lit up and widened...... Trying to prop up his swollen eyelids, he asked in surprise, "Who are we going to pay?" Kenyon, Marcus, Andre (Miller) or draft picks? ”

"There's only one chip on the other side, and that's Carmello."

"Who?"

"Anthony Carmello."

"Well, I'm here, I'm okay with this signal."

"I mean—U!"

“……”

"Then can you trade me away and then trade it back?"

“……”

The first round of matches did not all stop at G6, and there was still a pair in the east and west that were playing a tie-break.

The Nets and Wizards in the East are round-the-rounds battles, keeping suspense until the last 1 minute in every game.

In the first 6 games, each game either had a lore ball or a lore defense, which can be called the most exciting first round in the past 10 years.

Finally, in G7, Carter finally brought himself back to the second round with a stunner layup.

In the West, the Mavericks and Lakers also staged exciting offensive and defensive battles, dragging the series into a tie-break.

Although I know that the Lakers are strong after strengthening in advance, I am still shocked to be able to force the all-time runner-up Maverick to grab seven.

However, if you think about it, the Lakers in history can play the Suns who played to the Western Conference finals 1-3 at the beginning, and finally dragged it to the tie-break and was overturned, which doesn't seem to be particularly outrageous.

Paul is also a 75-year-old, and Sprewell is also a star, even if he is not efficient and old, but he has a lot of experience in the playoffs, and with a substitute, the top starter is definitely better than Luke Wharton or Devin George.

Add to that Paul's bonus to the rest of the Lakers' players and his control over Kobe Bryant.

Maybe there is hope for the Lakers this year......

Just when the Bass family thought they could earn him millions of dollars in ticket money, the Mavericks didn't want to leave a shameful record of 60 first-round wins, and they were unusually brave in the face of the back.

The five sets of tactics that General Johnson Jr. gave to the Mavericks played a big role: the driver singles, the Josh Howard singles, the Terry singles, the Harris singles and the Starkerhouse singles.

The five sets of tactics are intricate, similar to the Zen master's triangular attack.

In the end, the Mavericks successfully defeated the Lakers and advanced by luck with the excellent performance of the veteran driver Odom, the deep bench, and Paul's sprained ankle.

Seeing Mamba on the first round again, Ao Pang happily wanted to celebrate again.

was still dissuaded by Mo Wen.

His fat can become a weakness that prompts Ajan to counterattack, or it can become a wall of sighs for Ajan's positional battle, he wants to play with himself again, and it will not be so easy to fight Ajan in the next round.

Not to mention, Ajan shouted the slogan "My goal has always been the championship" in an interview two days ago.

It's really-

Daring!

……

After getting off the plane and smelling the familiar smell of the sea breeze, Ajan's heart was not relaxed at all.

There were no acquaintances to pick him up, he stayed in an unfamiliar hotel, and the waves that poured into his ears did not bring much peace to Ajan.

He came last year to witness victory, and this year he came to take it away (nominally).

It stresses him out.

"Can we really do miracles?"

In front of the media and teammates, he maintained self-confidence, behaved as a leader, was not intimidated by the Heat's power, and still pursued victory with high morale.

Although, he doesn't have a little bottom in his heart.

It's like what countless chicken soup masters have said: what kind of person you want to be, pretend what kind of person you are.

Many times, he is also pretending, hoping that one day he can integrate the mask with the goat written on it into his flesh and blood.

After playing the first round, the outside world's praise of him made him very useful, but those praises came to an abrupt end in a comma, and it was not unfinished that was left behind, but Mo Wen and Wade.

Compared with other famous stars, his biggest advantage is that he is young, and when discussing his age, it is impossible to avoid Mo Wen and Wade.

In the ongoing MVP selection, there are many people who talk about this.

His lack of qualifications and not making the playoffs before Reed came to pitch is not the biggest problem.

The biggest problem is that he hasn't passed his peers in this copy of the NBA!

In terms of scoring, Wade, who has a slight loss on the books, is more efficient than him, in terms of organization, Mo Wen, a historical-level genius, is firmly on his head, and in terms of rebounding, Bosh and Milicic are doing better than him.

His proud data, not to mention the entire league, and the draft can't be suppressed, so how can he convince the public if the MVP is given to him?

James has always believed that he is the best, even Mo Wen and Wade have "succeeded" faster than him, and after breaking through the first round, this belief has become more and more firm.

The success of a group is not entirely equivalent to individual strength.

If the rules of basketball are only heads-up, he is confident that he will not be weaker than Mo Wen and Wade.

However, the NBA is not a street ball bullfight, and no matter how confident he is, he has to admit that the combination of Mo Wen and Wade is better than him.

Coupled with the star teammates of the Heat team that he could see every day in magazines when he was in high school, there is no need to say how terrifying it is.

During the regular season, after the Heat DJ read the names of the starters, the fighting spirit of the players on the weak team can be reduced by half.

But he is not the same person who can be easily handled last year, or his teammates are no longer the ones who didn't deserve a name in basketball last year!

After making some chicken soup for its own production, the cheered Ajan approached Reed.

The next day we competed, and there was still time to train tonight.

And Reed was quite excited when he heard that Ajan was going to take him to play.

Put on the "big gold chain and small watch" and get ready to go to Miami Beach to "wave the money and put the white girl"

But who would have thought that in the lobby of the hotel downstairs, Ajan was already dressed in sportswear and covering his pair of "devil's horns" with a headband in front of the mirror.

"What'up, bro? Why do you have to go in a tracksuit?"

"Huh? What is the body? Did you make an appointment? Ajan looked at Reed's prodigal playing board and was a little puzzled.

"Didn't you tell me to go to the body so late, could it be that you still want to take me... Going to train? ”

Seeing Ajan nodding, Reed felt a little devastated.

No, buddy, you don't really want to win, do you?

Didn't you fucking want to take the lead in surrendering during the regular season?

Just win the first round, and you haven't even drunk the celebration wine, right?

……

May 7th.

The Miami fans, who applauded Iverson in the last round, did not treat Ajan with the same courtesy.

The league has repeatedly hinted that Ajan could win the MVP this season, much to the dismay of Miami fans.

According to the Miami media, it is - please name one of the worst MVP candidates and explain why it is LeBron James.

They put up the strongest record in NBA history, setting what may be the most insurmountable record in NBA history.

As a result, you tell them that the best and most dominant player of the season was on the Cavaliers who were swept by them in the regular season?

It's all to blame on that damn capital!

Hush~~~

Today's DJ also did a good job, and when introducing a few leading players, he also made a point of mentioning the ranking on the regular season MVP list.

This is a friendship that openly separates their class of '03 brothers!

The hook was salty, but he succeeded.

Originally, I was thinking about whether to play with Ajan, and finally gave him a decent Mo Wen and Wade glanced at each other.

There is no need to communicate, after two years, the two still have this tacit understanding.

Anthony, who came on "vacation" again, did not feel much jealousy of Mo Wen and Wade after hearing this movement, but instead targeted the curse on James.

In the face of Mo Wenwade winning the championship like this, he can still use the excuse that they rely on their teammates to deceive himself.

But James, who has been with him before, suddenly entered the second round this year and won the best team, and even won the top personal honor of MVP, that strong sense of deception and betrayal, just like taking you crazy before the college entrance examination to tell you that he guaranteed 985, I can't accept it at all!

Waiting for the opening performance to end, the big screen on the court also showed the starting lists on both sides.

Heat: Mo Wen, Wade, Finley, Haslem, O'Neal;

Cavaliers: Eric Snow, Reed, James, Drew Gooden, Big Z;

"I think everyone has heard enough of the arguments of the declining knights in the past two days, and now I have a data in my hand, which can provide you with a diametrically opposed data."

In TNT's commentary room, Reggie Miller waved a data sheet.

"What data?"

"The salary scale of the two teams, if you calculate according to the personnel above, you will find that the starting salary of the Heat is 4 million lower than that of the Cavaliers."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was retorted by Barkley.

"It doesn't make sense, Reggie, you can't just calculate the value of a player in terms of his current salary, just like the IRS [Federal Revenue Service] doesn't just care about how much money you put into the stock market, it cares about how much you make."

"Mo's next contract, Wade's next contract, and the salary that the Mavericks still pay Finley, if you calculate it according to this method, the value of the Heat's starters is also close to the Knicks' bench!"

(James Dolan: Killer, big job, thank you.) ）

In the center of the stadium, the players of both sides took their places, and the fans also took "defence" in their mouths.

However, the guest who came today, Big Z, is also polite.

Running towards the principle of fairness and justice, not more talent than technology. Two floor streams, stepping on cans, had a jumping ball duel that could not be called passionate.

Pregnant!

Mo Wen didn't have time to be surprised with the audience on the sidelines, trotted two steps with the ball, and then accelerated to speed up, grabbed the cavalier's gap, passed through the crowd, and grabbed the inside line in front of everyone with a lot of Zhan flavor, throwing and hitting.

2：0。

In the cheers of the audience, Ajan straightened his face, cheered up the spirit of twelve points, took the basketball from his teammates, and got to work!

But before he could run two steps, Mo Wen appeared in front of him.

Just as he instinctively dodged the ball, Wade also appeared from the side, and a pair of black hands reached for the basketball under James' palm.

Ajan, who noticed something, was suddenly startled.

Isn't it, you're going to him when you come up?

Can't play fancy dribbling, and can't find space to accelerate, seeing that the two "thieves" are about to become "big thieves", Ajan can only distribute the ball to Reed who responds next to him.

As it turns out, multiplayer sports aren't just something you want to play.

Reed rarely held the ball in the first round, afraid of Wade's defensive speed, he did not choose to shoot directly outside the three-point line, and after smoothly entering the three-point line and turning around twice, Reed hit an easy layup with a small board from Haslem who came over to make up the defense.

As a good brother of Ajan, being able to be inside and out is a basic requirement.

2：2。

Good start!

Ajan clenched his fist.

Although he didn't assist in this ball, he attracted the defense of the Heat when he held the ball, and he made a great contribution!

Back to the Heat's round.

Mo Wen held the ball, and Ajan also took the initiative to defend it.

Although Snow received the same amount of salary as Mo Wen, no one would think that he could guard against Mo Wen.

Once Iverson's right-hand man, Snow was able to average 13 points and 7 assists per game in the final two years of the 76ers, and the riding tube felt that he could help Ajan share the pressure, so he signed him in the middle of the paper.

But don't look at Snow playing next to Iverson, there has been no ball in his hand, I think he is playing without the ball, people are more of a ball-holding style of play, but most of the time he will pass the ball to Iverson for him to finish, and his projection ability is very average, and he also had a long-range shot in his early years, but as he got older, not only did he not practice, but it became worse.

So...... Snow is now playing a defensive role and a midpoint in the fast break with the Cavaliers.

But today it didn't seem to be easy to find his place on the defensive end.

"Bread" Brown didn't want to play him, but the Cavaliers' swingman position wasn't very reliable either.

Ajan and Reed are both masters of playing time, even if there are newcomers, there is no opportunity to exercise, and after sweeping the circle, Snow can play a role on the court.

Damon Jones, who came out of the Heat, has a three-point hand that can help the Cavaliers open up space.

But with Damon Jones' size...... Is it pitiful to go on the field and find old teammates to sell?

Mo Wen glanced at it, and after a little distance from Wade, a fake pass sent the ball to Wade.

This is their strategy before the game.

Don't consume Ajan, but defeat Ajan's helpers first.

What bad intentions can they have, they just want Ajan to "disappear" in the game.

Reed can barely withstand Wade in tonnage, but in terms of defensive skills, it goes without saying that the sentence "family teacher Ray Allen" is behind, and he understands everything.

Wade just slightly clumsily imitated Mo Wen's usual tricks to play him, and shook his back twice, a little stuck, a little fake, but he still deceived Reed.

Twist your waist and step over.

Big Z made up for it, and he didn't panic, so he gave it to Ao Fat.

The shark came out of the water and hit the ball with ease.

And when Ajan tried to get the ball from Snow again, Wade wrapped it up again.

Hello, robbery.
