Chapter 144 Performance of the Three Super Centers

At this time, assistant coach Lewis announced the results of the other three games.

The Bulls defeated the Eagles three times, completed the sweep of the first round, and became the first team to reach the second round.

The Knicks lost to the Pacers by a big score. It is now [-] to [-], and the match point is still in hand.

In the last game, the Jazz defeated the Supersonics. The Jazz led [-]-[-] and got the match point.

"The Supersonics are a bit weak. The No. [-] in the Western Conference got the match point by the No. [-] Jazz in the Western Conference." Kevin Johnson said.

"Sean Kemp was injured in the last game. He only played 10 minutes and scored 4 points. The Sonics' loss was expected." Barkley laughed.

"Do you think we will play the Spurs or the Blazers in the second round?"

"I bet on the Spurs, after all, they have a super center."

"But Mr. Admiral has been in a downturn for two consecutive games. His performance in the playoffs is a bit weak!"

"I am optimistic about the Trail Blazers. A super center can't decide the outcome of a series. The general shoots [-]% of the games in a row. I don't see him having the ability to bring the Spurs into the second round."

Everyone discussed the current situation in the West, but did not talk about the East, and tacitly did not mention the first Bulls to reach the second round.

At this time, Comrade Wang said ignorantly: "The Bulls are worthy of being the defending champions, and they are still very strong. I suspect that they will keep their strength in the regular season."

All the players look at me, I look at you, a pressure fills the locker room.

Barkley's relaxed face immediately became serious, and he said, "Michael Jordan has no habit of keeping his strength. He has a personality that strives to win every game. I know this very well."

Everyone couldn't help but nodded. Barkley was right. Jordan had this kind of personality, and anyone who knew him knew that.

At this time, assistant coach Lewis said: "Let me analyze for you the three games in which the Bulls swept the Eagles."

"OK." Everyone nodded.

Lewis said: "In the first game, the Eagles only grabbed 28 rebounds, and the Bulls got [-] rebounds. Guess what?"

"40?" Barkley said.

"Fifty." Pharaoh shouted.

"Only 28 rebounds? At least 70 rebounds in a game, and the Bulls have at least 40. I'll pick 50." Kevin Johnson said.

"62."

Lewis spit out a number, stunned everyone.

He added: "The huge difference in rebounding caused the Bulls to take as many as 101 shots, while the Hawks only had 76 shots, so the Hawks lost the G1 game without any suspense.

In the G2 game, the Eagles worked hard on rebounds and grabbed 50, while the Bulls only had 41. This is a good job, but they still lost the game, 102:117, and lost by 15 points. "

"What went wrong again?" Barkley asked.

Lewis raised his right index finger and said: "First point, the Bulls' perimeter defense was perfect, with 13 steals in the game, while the Hawks only had 7.

Under Jordan's defense, the Eagles point guard Mucci Blaylock only made 10 of 2 shots and made as many as 9 turnovers.

I think this kind of performance, if it happens to our team, our result may be very bad, right? "

Everyone looked at Kevin Johnson, his expression immediately became heavy.

During the regular season, Jordan did not switch defenses, but he will definitely come to guard him in the playoffs, and no matter who it is, facing Jordan's suffocating defense, the pressure will be very high.

Lewis continued: "Secondly, the Bulls' shooting percentage was as high as 51.8%, and they suppressed the Eagles' shooting percentage to 40% through deadly defense.

The third point is that the Bulls had 33 assists in the game, while the Eagles had only 13. You can think about how reasonable and efficient the Bulls' offense is? "

"What about the G3 match?" Pharaoh asked curiously.

Lewis said: "In the just-concluded G3 game, the score was 98:88, the rebounds were 38, the Bulls had only 3 more assists, and the Bulls had one less steal, but they had 4 more blocks, and the turnovers and fouls were similar. These are not the key to the outcome.

The reason why the Bulls won is only one point, the shooting percentage, the Bulls reached 52%, a little higher than the G2 game, while the Eagles still only had 45.6%.

In the final analysis, it is still defense. They maintain their high efficiency on the offensive end, and then suppress the opponent's efficiency through a strong defense. "

"How about Jordan's performance?" Pharaoh asked.

“第一场57.1%的命中率，轰下39分。第二场41.7%的命中率，轰下29分。今晚是57.7%的命中率，再次轰下了39分。”刘易斯说道。

"How much is the average per game?" Old Wang calculated, but couldn't figure it out.

"35.6 points, 78 of 41 shots, 52.5% shooting per game, very efficient." Lewis said.

"Brother, can you beat him?" Old Wang immediately asked Barkley.

Barkley looked at Dan Marley expectantly and said, "Don't worry, Dan will take care of him."

"what?"

Dan Marley was taken aback. When the fuck did I say I could handle Jordan?

"20 points in the first game, 14 points in the second game, 19 points in the third game, 20+14 equals 34, plus 27, 80? So the average per game is almost... more than 25?"

Wang Tiejun didn't pay attention to them any more. His mental arithmetic ability was not good, and he was a bit of a scumbag. He counted his data for the three series with his fingers. He was very satisfied with his data, but he felt that there was something wrong.

After summing up, everyone took a shower, and then several main players went to the press conference, and the substitutes stayed in the locker room to accept media interviews.

In the Lakers press conference hall, facing the situation of being eliminated, the atmosphere was a bit dignified.

"Coach Fender, how is Divac's injury? Can he come back in the G4 game?" A reporter asked.

"A sprain, the team doctor told me, I'm afraid it won't work, we have to make preparations for not having Divac in the G4 game." Randy Fender said regretfully.

In fact, the Lakers team doctor told him exactly the opposite, just that he wanted to fool the Suns and achieve unexpected tactical results.

Divac is very important to the Lakers, not his scoring, but his defense. He can suppress the old K's performance and even get him down.

If the effect is achieved at the point of old K, the Lakers can concentrate their defensive power on Barkley, just like in the G2 game.

On the 5th, at 9 a.m., Wang Tiejun got up, and the whole team had breakfast together after washing up.

"You know, the ESPN media adjusted the Bulls' chances of winning the championship." Kevin Johnson said.

"Turned up?" Buckley said.

"It was 45% before the first round, and now it is 51%, 6 percentage points." Kevin Johnson said.

"What about us?" Barkley asked with concern.

"No change, just adjusted the Bulls." Kevin Johnson Road.

"Hey, Brother Zhang, what's the matter? Oh no, Brother Zhang, I'm not here, what are you doing at my house?"

At this time, Wang Tiejun's cell phone rang. It was the phone number from Phoenix's home, and Zhang Lili must have called.

"I'm here to get some bacon to eat. If you don't eat it, it will go bad." Zhang Lili laughed.

"The things my family brought are cheaper for you." He muttered.

"It's such a thing. A girl named Yu Feihong called home just now. I gave her your mobile phone number." Zhang Lili said.

"Yu Feihong? Who is it?" He asked.

"You don't know her? She said that she met you in Los Angeles. She was an actor who came from China. Now that the filming of the movie is over, and I'm going back to China, I'll give you a call." Lao Zhang said hastily.

"Oh, I remembered, we know each other." After Lao Zhang reminded him, he remembered that it was the girl he met on the Avenue of Stars.

There was no contact between the two, and he didn't remember it for a while.

Just as I hung up the phone, another call came in.

"Hey, is it Comrade Xiao Xiao?" He asked directly without waiting for the other person to speak.

"Comrade Xiao Wang, your name is Brother Fei, you are not even 20 years old, yet you lied to me." Yu Feihong said a little annoyed.

He made a haha, and said with a smile: "Younger, let's not talk about that, are you going back to China?"

"Well, the filming of the filming is over, and I'll be back home in two days, and the air ticket is booked. I called you twice before, but no one answered. The third time someone answered, saying that you have moved." Yu Feihong said.

"Oh, that's right, I did move later, so how did you find my current phone number?" He said in surprise.

"Call your team. The Suns have an official contact number. They didn't give it to me at first, but I asked the director of our crew to get it." Yu Feihong said.

"Oh, then remember my mobile phone number. Didn't you say you wanted to come to study last time? Just call this mobile phone." He said.

"That's fine, we'll contact you when you return to China," Yu Feihong said.

"Don't wait until then, don't you know, I'm in Los Angeles now." He said.

"Really? I've been busy with filming recently. I really haven't paid attention to your news. Did you come to play the game?" Yu Feihong said.

"Playoffs, oh, you don't understand this. I came here the day before yesterday. I played a game yesterday, and there is another game tomorrow. I have nothing to do today. Where are you? I'll pick you up and have lunch together," he said.

"Okay, I'll treat you." Yu Feihong said.

"I invite, I'm a half-landlord here, can you invite me?" he said.

"That's fine, I'll invite you after I return to Sijiu City." Yu Feihong said.

"Okay, I'm going back to China after the playoffs, and I'll contact you then," he said.

The two made an appointment at an address, but Yu Feihong didn't ask him to pick it up, and took a taxi there by himself.

"Sir, can you give me a ticket? I have a friend from China who is in Los Angeles and will be returning home tomorrow. I want to invite her to watch my game."

After hanging up the phone, he said to Colangelo who was still eating breakfast.

"No problem, just wait a moment, I'll get it for you." Putting down the knife and fork, Colangelo smiled.

Ten minutes later, he asked for leave and left the hotel.

The two met at Venice Beach, one of the best spots in Los Angeles and one of the best surf spots in the world.

Around noon, the two met.

Yu Feihong was very surprised when he saw Wang Tiejun. He stood a few steps away, staring up and down non-stop.

The first time I met him on the Avenue of Stars, this giant was dressed casually and cheaply, but this time he actually wore a suit and leather shoes, and also wore a pair of sunglasses, which gave her a huge sense of oppression.

"Less than." Comrade Wang took off his sunglasses and laughed.

"Xiao Wang? It's Brother Fei. You are two years younger than me, and you take advantage of me." Yu Feihong said a little annoyed.

"Haha, that won't work, you have to call me Old Wang."

"Isn't your nickname Old K? I call you Old K, and you call me Brother Fei."

"No, you are two heads shorter than me, I won't call you."

"Squat down and talk."

Yu Feihong was angry, she was only 165 centimeters, 50 centimeters short, and it took too much time to talk to Wang Tiejun with her neck up, so she squatted down first.

The two squatted together under a palm tree. After squatting down, she found that she still had to raise her neck to talk, so she simply pulled Wang Tiejun to sit on the ground. It was a beach anyway, so sitting was more comfortable.

"Yu Yu, last time I invited you to watch a football game, you said that you wanted to read the script. This time the filming is over, and we're familiar with each other once. Do you want to go?"

Wang Tiejun took out the ticket and said, "This is the first row ticket the team gave me. It's three thousand dollars. Many Hollywood stars can't buy it. Don't regret it if you don't go."

"So expensive?"

Yu Feihong took the ticket in surprise and looked it up, saying, "Okay, such an expensive ticket, don't look at it for nothing."

After coming to the United States for a few months, she now has more or less understanding of the NBA, and she also knows more about Wang Tiejun from the media. The Americans in the filming crew of her movie all know the name of Old K.Even, the media also said that Julia Roberts, a big Hollywood star, was dating Wang Tiejun.

From the bottom of her heart, she now feels that this giant is quite mysterious. After serving a year in prison in China, she transformed herself and went to the United States to become a football star, and a big star fell in love, which made her very curious.

"By the way, old K, are you really dating Roberts?" She began to gossip.

"No, it's just for fun." Wang Tiejun said carelessly.

"Playing?" Yu Feihong was stunned.

She couldn't imagine that a first-line Hollywood actress who was nominated for a Golden Globe and an Oscar, a famous beauty, was just playing around with Wang Tiejun?
Then she immediately warned herself, don't get too close to that bastard, Old K, I'm afraid this bastard is not a good thing.

At noon, the two ate something at a restaurant on Venice Beach, played on the beach for a few hours in the afternoon, and went back to the city to have dinner before leaving.

That night, the Spurs won the G3 game and won the match point by defeating the Trail Blazers.

超级中锋大卫罗宾逊16投8中，14罚10中，轰下了26分14篮板5助攻4助攻的数据，攻防两端的表现都好于前两场。

However, Mosaic lost the G4 game and tied with the Clippers.

大梦这场比赛23投10中，命中率只有43.5%，虽然拿到了25分18篮板9助攻5盖帽4失误5犯规的豪华数据，但还是输掉了比赛。

The Mosaic team's shooting rate reached 47%, while the Clippers had 39%. However, the Clippers played a beautiful defense, with 12 steals in the game, while Mosaic had only 4 times. The strong defense forced the Mosaic team to make 15 turnovers, while the Clippers had only 6 turnovers. It can be said that the Clippers evened the big score through their strong defense.

Dameng's performance in the four games is obviously better than David Robinson, but the current situation of the Mosaic team is not as good as the Spurs. The opponent is the fourth in the West, and the strength is closer.

This shows that no team is a weak team in the playoffs, and the intensity of defense is much greater than that of the regular season.

In the Eastern Conference, the Hornets eliminated the Celtics [-]-[-] and became the second team to reach the second round of the playoffs after the Bulls.

In addition, the Nets defeated the Cavaliers and led by a big score of two to one.

On May 1993, 5, the game day, there were a total of three playoff games.

In addition to the Suns against the Lakers, there is also a Supersonics game against the Jazz in the West, and a Knicks game against the Pacers in the East.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the Suns came to the Great Western Forum Arena for recovery training.

In terms of tactics, head coach Westphal still asked Ceballos to do the dirty work for Wang Tiejun to avoid being fouled by the Lakers. He could let the Lakers' small forwards go.

Divac of the Lakers said he can't play, but no one knows whether he can play. If he can play, this is the Lakers' home court.

In terms of offense, it is still based on low-post offense.

Although the Suns are strong enough on the outside, they don't have as much advantage on the inside.

Especially at the fifth position, the Lakers do not have a big center. Except for Divac's flop, no one can carry the old K. He must double-team him, and this can liberate Barkley.

At 06:30, fans began to enter the arena. By 07:30, the Great Western Forum Arena was full, densely packed with people.

With the huge flow of people pouring into the arena, it was the first time for Yu Feihong to enter such a large indoor gymnasium. She had only entered some theaters and movie theaters, which were far from such a large one. She was very curious, just like Wang Tiejun's first time entering Madison Square Garden.

I found my own seat, glanced at the people in the seats next to me, and sat down a little nervously and excitedly.

The long row of seats on the right hand side was empty, and there were some staff in front standing there and not sitting, which was also a bit strange.

She knew the person sitting in the first seat on the left, a big Hollywood movie star, Johnny Depp nominated for the Golden Globe Award for leading actor, Edward Scissorhands, she had seen this movie.

In the past, Robert Downey Jr., who just starred in "Chaplin", was said by the media that he was likely to be nominated for this year's Oscar for leading actor.

In the past, Brad Pitt has also been nominated for an Oscar and a Golden Globe.

In the past, Tom Cruise is even more famous. She has watched the movie Top Gun many times, and she watched the pirated disc.

In the past, it was that old K guy, Julia Roberts.

Anyway, with the left hand, there are a bunch of big Hollywood stars.

When she sat down, several big stars next to her looked at her with curiosity, but they didn't speak.

Not long after, the substitute came off the bench to warm up.

The starting rosters of the two teams were also announced.

Suns: Wang Tiejun, Barkley, Ceballos, Dan Marley, Kevin Johnson

Lakers: Divac, Eldon Campbell, AC Green, Byron Scott, Saidal Streiter
