No matter how difficult it is, Min Congda can face it with a smile.

Of course, to put it nicely, this is called optimism.

To put it mildly, it is that the brain does not remember things, and the memory of food does not remember the fighting.

However, the basketball world has always been full of people who don't remember to eat.

Like many fans, their own home team was beaten up in the playoffs and beaten to the ground.

After an offseason, you can be resurrected with full blood, and no one is afraid of the sky and the earth again.

There are also some fans, the team is already 0:3, and they still think that the home team can create a miracle and turn the tables 4:0.

Even 0:4, there are hard mouths that can be reversed 5:4......

Perhaps this is the charm of sports, defeat is painful, but there is no end to the battle.

Like Pele said, what was the best goal? Definitely the next one.

Athletic competition always gives people hope, and there is always a chance to start over after failure.

Even if a star falls, there will be an influx of new people who will bring new hope.

Again and again to rebuild, again and again to fall, again and again to get back up.

The NBA is such a cycle of life.

Min Congda wanted to jump out of this cycle, but unknowingly fell into this cycle.

Of course, everyone wants to win, but he wants to lose.

People have been defeated and fought, and he has won more and more.

The process is painful, and the will is tenacious.

Coupled with Min Congda's unique basketball talent, he is an optimistic personality with a lower average intelligence that is really suitable for working in the NBA.

It's just that he doesn't think so, and he has 360 million dollars in mind, and the bounty is estimated to increase to 400 million at the end of this season.

The opening game between the Clippers and Thunder will be played on May 1.

The Clippers arrived in Russia a day early for rest and warm-up.

The 4-0 sweep in the first round made the whole Clippers team burst with confidence and got a good rest.

The team's health is pretty good, and Curry's ankle has been closely monitored and maintained.

The team doctor said Curry's surgery was a great success, and because it was done early, he recovered well.

As long as you pay attention to protection, there will be no major problems in the future.

For Min Congda's vision, Curry and his family are very grateful.

Young players such as Harden, George, and Dragic are even more physically good.

Veterans such as Davis and Randolph are also in good shape.

There are definitely injuries, and there is no body in a professional athlete that is not injured.

There is no such thing as complete health, and the injuries are just small and serious.

All the players basically play with injuries.

Like the Lakers' first round against the Grizzlies, why do there be twists and turns?

In the first two games, stunned young people like Griffin and Jordan Jr. couldn't adapt to the playoffs at all.

But after adjusting two games and returning to the home court, the Lakers were taken.

Kobe Bryant scored only 10 points in Game 4, the lowest score in the playoffs in recent years.

Because Kobe Bryant was seriously troubled by injuries, and he was unwilling to rest, he always played with injuries.

But even so, optimistic Lakers fans still believe that the Lakers can win this year's championship.

In the semifinals, the Mavericks were even more hand-held, after all, the Mavericks also won enough in the first round.

also led 2-0, and then was pulled by the Trail Blazers for two games in a row.

One of them was a big reversal in the fourth quarter, which made fans addicted.

The name of the soft egg was once again deducted from Nowitzki's head.

And between the Lakers and the Mavericks, it was the first playoff meeting since the new era in 1999.

After that shutdown ended, the Spurs ushered in the NBA's Western era.

After that, the West is the world of the Lakers and Spurs.

In 12 years, the two teams have divided almost all the Western Conference championships, with the only exception being the Mavericks in '06.

And the Mavericks and Spurs have clashed several times, and they have been killed in the dark.

The Lakers and Spurs also fought several times, deciding the championship in advance.

The Mavericks and Lakers have never met in the playoffs before.

It can be said that in 2011, when the old era is about to end, at the moment when a new round of shutdown is coming, the Lakers vs Mavericks and Kobe Bryant vs Nowitzki are an excellent competitive feast for fans.

Compared with the old era confrontation between the Mavericks and the Lakers, the Clippers and Thunder are the battle of the new era in advance.

Compared to the Clippers, the Thunder are also in very good shape.

The young troika of Durant, Westbrook and Gordon is extraordinary.

Before the 2011 season trade deadline, the Thunder sent away Jeff Green to get Kendrick Perkins from the Celtics.

The trade is debatable, and the Thunder do need a basket guard, but their previous target was Tyson Chandler.

As a result, the transaction was already completed, but Chandler failed the medical examination, and the transaction had to be cancelled.

Then, Chandler was sent to the Mavericks, and the Thunder's inside line was still empty.

The Thunder's biggest target in the West is, of course, the Lakers.

The Lakers are feared by everyone, and the Clippers also have two heroes on the inside.

In the 10-year Finals, the Celtics lost to the Lakers in a seven-tie break, and it cannot be said that there is no impact of Perkins' reimbursement in it.

His role in the interior against the Lakers' three-high is obvious.

With the acquisition of Perkins, the Thunder's roster is more complete.

From the starting five to the sixth, every position is a strong player.

After completing a trade at the end of February during the regular season, the Thunder lost just two games in the entire month of March.

The only team in the league to overshadow them is the Chicago Bulls in the East.

The basket protection and rebounding protection brought by Perkins were all scarce in the Thunder before.

But to say it's not worth it, Perkins' autonomous offensive ability is not at all.

As a bulky big center, in the era when the interior monster is gradually withering, whether he can support the Thunder inside line in the future is a big question mark.

The Thunder was also impatient to keep him with a 4-year 34.8 million contract.

Some media commented that Perkins' contract may be even more rubbish than the Clippers Milicic's contract.

Because Milicic can still develop offensive ability, Perkins has no such possibility.

In the new era, ball power and space are everything, can a behemoth like Perkins adapt to it?

Of course, at least this season, in the Western Conference semifinals, Perkins is definitely useful.

The Clippers have two bears on the inside, and Thunder Perkins + Ibaka, there must be a fierce battle.

On the evening of May 1, at the Pisacek Energy Center, the Thunder wore blue T-shirts all over the court.

For the Thunder, this is the first time the new team has made the playoffs since it was established.

They made it past the first round and reached the semi-finals.

The rival Clippers are in a sense their object of revenge.

If it weren't for the Clippers last season, the Thunder would have made the playoffs last year.

The fans in Russia are still extremely enthusiastic, and the atmosphere at the scene can be called crazy.

Min Congda likes the atmosphere and loves the popcorn at the energy center.

This time he didn't give any pre-match interviews, so keep your mouth shut!

The race started at 7 a.m. mountain time and a long battle began.
