At eight o'clock, the two sides announced the starting list.

Mosaics: Olajuwon, Barkley, Mario Ely, Drexler, Rekasna

Hypersonics: Matt Geiger, Rodman, Schramf, Jose Hawkins, Zhou Quan

The Western Conference Final Series was broadcast nationwide on ESPN and featured by Isaiah Thomas and Bill Ranbill.

The smiling assassin said: "George Karl chose to start Matt Geiger because he likes his tough defense and hopes that he can keep his big dreams on the outside. ”

Ranbir said unceremoniously: "It is inevitable that he will be blown up by big dreams." ”

The assassin laughed, "Barkley will also blow up Rodman, and Rodman can't be prevented." ”

"The inside line is the absolute dominance of the mosaic." Ranbier said.

The assassin nodded: "The supersonic at the third position has some advantages, and Schramf is still good, with three-point shooting, and rebounding." ”

"At the No. 2 position, the glider shot only 36.8 percent in the first round and 45.9 percent in the second round, averaging 17 points per game," Ranbier said. Hawkins, on the other hand, scored 48.2 percent and 50.5 percent, respectively, with 14.5 points.

In terms of scores, the glider is better, but in terms of efficiency, Hawkins is a little better. All things considered, I'm actually more bullish on Hawkins. ”

The Assassin laughed, "Hawkins gets more slots next to Iron Fist." ”

Ranbir shook his head and said, "No, the glider can also get a lot of empty space next to Flying Pig and Big Dream, this is a matter of efficiency."

He's four years older than Hawkins, and he's slipped in form not as much as he used to be, and his career shooting percentage is now 47.5 percent compared to Hawkins' 46.4 percent, which is one percentage point higher. ”

The assassin nodded: "Bill, according to what you said, the second and third positions have some advantages in supersound, so with the advantage of Iron Fist, can the overall advantage of supersonic make up for the disadvantages of the fourth and fifth positions?" ”

Ranbir smiled: "This is to analyze the performance of the two huddlers in the first two rounds of the series. ”

“OK。”

The Assassin rummaged through the table, found a piece of paper, and read, "Big Dream shot 53.5 percent and 48 percent from the field in the first two rounds, averaging 23 points and 9 rebounds per game. In fact, the state of Big Dream should also be declining.

His rebounds are down 1.2 from last season's playoffs. The numbers of steals and blocks and assists have also declined.

In addition, the average points per game has dropped even more, down nearly 10 points from last season's playoffs. And the overall shooting rate in the two rounds is only 51%, which is not as good as last season, a drop of two percentage points. ”

"He's no longer at his peak, that's why he's trying to recruit Drexler and Barkley." Ranbill laughed.

The assassin laughed and said, "Barkley shot 52% and 43% from the field in the first two rounds, with 18 points and 13 rebounds. The two combined for 41 points and 22 rebounds. ”

Ranbir said disdainfully: "If they continue to perform like this, I think the winner of this Western Final will be the Iron Fist kid." ”

The assassin immediately turned over Zhou Quan's data sheet and said with a smile: "In the first two rounds, Iron Fist was 57.5% and 62.5% respectively, averaging 37 points, 15.5 assists, 6.3 steals and 2.5 blocks per game.

The opponent is too weak, Iron Fist only began to enter the state in the second round, better than the first round, and the comprehensive performance of the first two rounds is almost the same as the regular season, with his super stable state, the Western Finals will only be better. ”

"Actually, it's the Big Three, but the glider is not a giant anymore, his shooting percentage is generally below the team's level, and he's dragging the whole team back," Ranbir said.

And the two guys, Big Dream and Barkley, they have to play well enough throughout the series, and they have to play a performance that can attract the bag to have a chance to beat the SuperSonics.

As much as I hate Tekken, his consistency is really surprising, which demands a lot more from Big Dream and Barkley, they need the same stability as Tekken. ”

The Assassin interrupted Ranbir and smiled, "I'm sure it's an unattainable requirement for them, hellish level of difficulty. ”

"Shet!"

Da Meng scolded angrily, went up and turned off the TV, turned around and yelled at Barkley and the glider: "Guys, if the three of us can't beat that bastard with Iron Fist, what face will we have in the alliance in the future?" ”

"that kid." Barkley snapped.

Only the glider, Ranbir said that he was dragging the hind legs of the whole team, which hurt him, and he was very silent at this time, and his face was very unsightly.

Barkley patted the glider on the shoulder and encouraged, "Don't do that, Clyde, don't listen to that fool of Ranbir, your presence is a threat, you can open up space for us outside and keep us out of the trap, who of them would dare to let you have a vacant seat?" ”

The glider sighed secretly, he couldn't move anymore, he couldn't fly, he could only shoot outside, but the efficiency was not enough.

Especially when encountering a team like the supersonic that rotates and defends very quickly, he can't get a big vacancy, so playing supersonic, his efficiency is generally not good.

Da Meng said to the glider at this time: "Brother, if you weren't injured in the regular season, we would definitely be the first in the league, so don't take Ranbir's words to heart, he is in league with Iron Fist, and he was scared by the kid with Iron Fist."

I'm telling you, Clyde, our strength is here, and this year we're going to win the championship, win the championship! We're going to beat the supersonics, take out the Iron Fist, and reach the Finals to win the championship. ”

Looking at the big hand stretched out by the big dream, the glider, who was a little excited, hurriedly put his hand over, then Barkley, and the other two starters, and the hands of the five people were put together.

"Victory!"

Big Dream roared.

"Victory!"

In the away team's locker room, the roars of the five players revealed great fighting spirit.

"It's time."

At this time, the staff pushed open the door and shouted.

"Guys, let's go."

After shouting, Da Meng took the lead and went out, with extraordinary momentum.

The supersonic starter was one step ahead, and when he saw a few big dreams coming, he looked over.

The tip of the needle is against the wheat, and there seems to be an invisible spark where the eyes meet.

"Iron Fist, you won't be a winner again this time." Barkley was the first to shout.

"You're never going to be a winner, and history is already proving that." Zhou Quan fought back.

"Poof!" Rodman laughed.

"Iron Fist, don't be crazy, we've won this time." In order to show his determination in front of his teammates and boost morale, Big Dream roared loudly.

"Big dream, what I said is valid, come and hug my thigh, and I will teach you how to win the championship." Zhou Quan glanced at Da Meng and spit out a sentence, which almost made him angry.

"Haha......"

Rodman laughed and said, "And me, I can teach you too, my ring is twice as many as the Iron Fist." ”

"Bastard!"

Big Dream was so angry that he was about to vomit blood.

"We'll take it ourselves." Barkley said angrily.

Zhou Quan glanced at Barkley again and smiled: "You are just responsible for selling tickets for the boss, what does the championship have to do with you?" ”

"Haha......"

This made Rodman and the others burst into laughter.

"Iron Fist, let's fight first."

Barkley was furious, clenched his fists and rushed forward.

"Don't! Charles, bro, calm down......"

Da Meng hugged Barkley and hurriedly persuaded: "Don't fall for him, he broke you off the field and you still play, what should we do?" ”

"Iron Fist, let's have one." Barkley said angrily.

Rodman shouted: "Iron Fist is now fighting at least tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, Fliggy, how much do you pay him for appearance?" ”

"I'm a fart!" Barkley said angrily.

"Haha......"

Seeing Barkley's angry appearance, Zhou Quan and the others laughed again.

"Brother, let's go."

Big Dream pulled Barkley out of the game, and he felt that if he stayed here, Barkley's mood would be completely ruined by the Iron Fist.

"Oooooooooo......oo

With the home team playing, the atmosphere in the central stadium reached a high level.

"Iron Fist! Tekken! Tekken ......"

Zhou Quan appeared last, and the cheers soon formed a unified earth-shattering shout.

"Iron Fist, do you want to say a few words?"

The excited host greeted him and handed him the microphone.

Zhou Quan took the microphone, and when the scene was a little quieter, he shouted: "Hey, guys, Seattle fans, do you know what I want to do now? ”

“……”

More than 10,000 fans quieted down and looked at Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan handed the microphone to his left hand, and with his right hand he hit a straight punch in the back hand, and then shouted: "I now hope to use my strength to explode the rocket." ”

"Burst the rocket!"

Suddenly, the shout of "exploding rockets" soared into the sky, swept through the entire Seattle Center Gymnasium, and then spread to the entire Seattle downtown area and the entire metropolitan area.

The supersonic home momentum has also reached its peak, and it seems that a match can ignite this old stadium.

"Delusional!"

Big Dream and Barkley said angrily.

"60%, 70%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, oh oh, our regional ratings are out of the charts! Tonight's Seattlemen, there is only one thing to do, they want to see how the Iron Fist blows up the rockets. ”

At this time, the on-site narrator Henem Chrisman roared excitedly.

Zhou Quan greeted Zeng Li, friends and then began to warm up.

"Brush Brush ......"

A series of three-pointers made the home team fans cheer constantly.

The 2,000 away fans who came all the way from Houston saw that Zhou Quan's hand felt so good, and their faces were not very good, and they only hoped that Zhou Quan would not miss.

Seeing Zhou Quan hit more than a dozen three-pointers in a row, Da Meng and Barkley's faces were not too good.

"Be careful, this guy must have a lot of three-pointers tonight, you have to focus on guarding against his three-pointers, and give it to me when you burst in, I can't kill him?"

Big Dream said to his teammates.

On the CCTV commentary seat, Xu Jicheng said excitedly: "Zhou Quan wants to beat the opponent, and now he feels good, and it should be no worse tonight." Let's explode, Zhou Quan, in the first game, give them a dismount and take a look, and help them anneal. ”

Zhang Li said with a smile: "Don't look at the strength of the Mosaic Triumvirate, they have a lot of weaknesses. The third position is not good, the number one position is even worse, this is the first.

The second is the bench lineup, which is not as good as the supersonics, and the supersonic have more or less two or three good role player rotations that can be handled, and there is no mosaic at all.

The third is defense, Da Meng's defense is strong, that is in the paint area, Zhou Quan's ball breakthrough is there, Hawkins' off-ball cut, he definitely doesn't dare to defend it.

The defensive system created by George Carr is very strong, and the overall defense of the SuperSonics is much stronger than that of Mosaic, and the average points conceded per game this season is second only to the Bulls and second in the league. ”

Xu Jicheng nodded and said: "Indeed, Barkley and Glider are not defensive experts, they have never been selected for the best defensive team, they are not in the second or third team, and their physical fitness is average, and they are not young." ”

Zhang said with a smile: "When you are old, your physical fitness has declined, and your offensive efficiency has definitely declined, people like Barkley and Drexler who are strong in offense and weak in defense, they will definitely focus on the offensive end and reduce their investment on the defensive end."

The entire Mosaic team, the defense is supported by Da Meng alone, this is the opportunity of the supersonic, use the offense to blow them up, and use the pinch defense to prevent them. ”

Xu Jicheng said worriedly: "I'm afraid that once Dameng's defense is out of shape, it will be difficult for supersonic speed to attack, and if you jump outside and shoot the basketball, it will be troublesome." ”

Zhang Li nodded and said: "If that's the case, supersonic is afraid that it will lose more and win less." But Zhou Quan broke through with the ball, and Da Meng could prevent the next part, but he couldn't let Zhou Quan completely fail to break through.

Once Zhou Quan breaks in and compresses their defense, he can create open opportunities for his teammates on the perimeter, and with his passing and direct assist ability, he will not let go of open space. ”

At this time, Jordan was also sitting in front of the TV.

It was exactly half past eight o'clock, and the game officially began.

"Victory!"

Led by Big Dreams, the Mosaic team shouted slogans to boost morale.

"Burst the rocket!"

At the other end, Zhou Quan's shouts sounded, and then the whole stadium resounded with a huge shout, drowning out the shouts of the two thousand fans of the away team.

After coming on the court, Big Dream and Matt Geiger jumped the ball, and Mosaic attacked.

Point guard Rekasna took the ball, Zhou Quan blocked in front, and he felt that it was not a person in front of him, but a tiger.

That kind of oppressive momentum also made his heart speed up instantly, and his heart rate instantly rushed from one hundred to two hundred.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

His brain was congested, and the pressure came up at once, and he had to immediately open his mouth to breathe harder.

"Smack!"

Zhou Quan instantly completed the grabber and poked the ball, stabbing the basketball that Rekas's hands were hiding under his right ribs, and then rushed forward and began to go down quickly, shooting to the basket like a sharp arrow.

"Oooh oh ......"

The central gymnasium immediately resounded with passionate cheers.

"The ball is broken, the iron fist is counterattacking! He took off! ”

The on-site commentator, Henem Chrisman, yelled excitedly.

"Bang!"

"Oh roar!"

The sound of the explosive basket sounded, and the cheers of the gymnasium instantly rushed to the peak.

On the sidelines, George Karl was throwing his fists excitedly, and his mouth was yelling non-stop, and no one could hear what he was yelling about.

Not far away, Tomjanovic shook his head helplessly, the difference in the No. 1 position is really too big, as big as the Pacific Ocean, and there must be one thing to do in the offseason to persuade the management and the boss to take the money out to strengthen the No. 1 position.

"Speed up the transfer of the ball, hear me? Don't hold the ball in front of him, execute it right away. Then he shouted at the field.
