NBA: I am the god of basketball

The Golden State Warriors are very strong and very strong, but they also have very obvious shortcomings.

As a superstar, Curry is the easiest player to be targeted and restrained. After all, as a head star, four championships can fail to win FMVP three times, no matter what excuses there is no way to prevaricate.

It is true that Curry's presence will allow the opponent's defensive focus to stay on him, thus making the offense of other players easier and simpler, but this is only due to the role of the tactical system.

The offensive end is easily restricted by the defense, and the defensive end will always be used as a breakthrough. This determines that although Curry is very strong, he must have suitable teammates to truly exert his full strength.

Durant is a teammate who is very suitable for Curry. He does not occupy the ball, and his offensive ability at critical moments is as stable as Mount Tai. Moreover, his excellent shooting and stable scoring ability can perfectly display Curry's deterrent power to attract the defensive center of gravity.

Ingram obviously does not have the personal ability of Durant. Although he can score with his mid-range shooting ability, he cannot replace Curry as the Warriors' core scoring point.

This is why Thompson became the team's first main scoring point in the first game.

However, Buddha's Light is Thompson's strategic weapon. The cooldown of his ultimate move is very long. In the first game, Buddha's Light was not able to win the game, and the next game was even more passive for them.

On May 5, the second game of the Western Conference Finals continued.

During the game, it can be seen that Curry is very eager to make a difference on the field.

But the Clippers players who defend him are almost all burly men close to 2 meters. Brogdon, who is a little shorter, is 1 meters tall. A lot of trouble.

Curry, who was full of enthusiasm, couldn't fire from the outside, and turned to a large number of balls to hit the basket. The effect was good. After the whole game, he made as many as 14 free throws and hit 12 goals. assists.

However, Thompson, who entered the state of reading the big move, performed extremely hips in this game. He only made 14 of 5 shots in the game, and his 35.7% shooting rate was completely different from the previous game.

The Splash Brothers must have a pull. Once one of them pulls his hips, it will be as difficult as heaven to win the game.

At the end of the two games, the Clippers successfully took a 2:0 lead and gained the upper hand.

I have to admit that the Magic Ball tactics of the Rockets was the biggest nemesis during the Five-Star Warriors period. After all, they were the only team that could fight the Five-Star Warriors to a score of 4:3 in the series, and even once won the match point 3:2 first. team.

The magic ball theory of crazy three-point shooting made the Warriors, who were already dominated by three-pointers, have to bow down.

But now, the Warriors have replaced Durant with Ingram, and the core of the Clippers' magic ball tactics is Wang Chao.

In the third game of the Western Conference Finals, the Warriors returned to their home court and finally rebounded strongly under desperate circumstances.

Curry Thompson scored 30+ points in both at home, and Ingram also scored 21 points. The three scored 86 points in total. :2 Even the fate of being swept away.

But the situation is still not good for the Warriors. They can only rely on the explosion of their stars to win the game, but the situation where Curry and Thompson both explode is rare after all.

On May 5, Game 20 of the Western Conference Finals, the Warriors who were still at home did not wait for a miracle.

126:117，快船在勇士队的主场小胜9分，比分变为3:1。

The Clippers won the match point first, and as long as they win another game, they can eliminate the Warriors and enter the finals.

The Warriors have no way out.

In desperation, the Warriors broke out their tenacious will to survive. To be exact, the Golden State Martial Arts Team reappeared in the league.

Wang Chao has long been accustomed to the Warriors' stinky habit of using external moves when they can't beat them, but the Warriors, who are impatient, really need to avoid the edge for the time being.

Even if Wang Chao himself is not afraid, he still needs to prevent his teammates from being hurt by the opponent, especially Green and Rooney, whose actions are rough, and it looks like they are running towards the useless.

The Clippers have a lot of crispy skin this season, and it is easy to be reimbursed for the entire season.

Just in case, Wang Chao, as before, did not kill them all, but selectively played another game, allowing the Warriors to return to their home court with a score of 2:3.

Although Game [-] is the home court of the Warriors and has a slight whistle advantage, the momentum is about repeating, repeating, and exhausting.

In the beginning, the Warriors were forced into a desperate situation, and the Warriors were really desperate, but with a buffer, even if they lost the game, the Warriors would still be eliminated, but without the intuitive sense of urgency at the beginning, it was still a lot worse.

The result was that at home, the Warriors lost to the Clippers, with a total score of 2:4 to stop the Western Conference Finals.

The Clippers officially advanced to the finals.

It must be mentioned here that since joining the league in 1970, the best result in the playoffs was the second round. If it weren't for Wang Chao, the Clippers would not enter the Western Conference Finals for the first time until 2021.

But now, the Clippers not only entered the Western Conference Finals for the first time, but also eliminated their rival Warriors in the Western Conference Finals and reached the finals!This is also the first time in the history of the Clippers!
The Clippers have a lot of first experience this season, all brought by Wang Chao. If the Clippers can beat the Eastern Conference team in the finals, it will also be the first time to win the NBA championship.

This kind of thing, just thinking about it, the Clippers fans feel so beautiful, and this is definitely not just imagination.

In the past two years, Wang Chao led the Nets and the Nuggets won the championship. There is no reason why they can't do it in the Clippers.

If Wang Chao really does it, he will also become the only player in NBA history to win three consecutive championships through three teams.

There have been many three-peat dynasties in this league, Jordan's Bulls had two three-peat dynasties, the Lakers' OK dynasty, and the Magic dynasty of the super-magic combination, Wang Chao's rocket dynasty.

But this kind of dynasty that belongs to Wang Chao alone is unique!
Even some fans who don't like Wang Chao can't help but look forward to it at this time. They also want to know whether Wang Chao can build a dynasty by himself.

While the Western Conference is deciding the winner, the situation in the Eastern Conference finals has gradually become clearer.

Nets vs. Bucks, the Nets are still better.

Although the Bucks have a striker combination of Antetokounmpo + Goji Wiggins, compared with the Nets' luxurious Big Four lineup, it is obviously a notch worse.

Especially Antetokounmpo, in the 18-19 season he was just on the rise. Although his personal data has exploded, his actual strength is still slightly lacking compared to the next few years.

In the Eastern Conference finals, Antetokounmpo faced Durant, and the gap in strength and experience between the two was obvious.

Antetokounmpo's performance on the court is obviously weaker than that of Durant, especially when the game enters a critical moment and a star needs to step forward to lead the team forward, Durant can use his super singles ability to score frequently. On the other hand, Antetokounmpo, however, could only break through with the ball, and then failed to attack under the attack of Durant and Jokic.

4:2.The score of the Nets and the Bucks is exactly the same as that of the Western Clippers vs. the Warriors. It is also six games to determine the winner.

In these six games, Antetokounmpo averaged 28.4 points, 10.8 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game, shooting 52% from the field, and his performance was not bad at all.

But compared to Durant's 32 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, it is slightly inferior.

What's more, the Nets are not only Durant alone, but also the mature and experienced Paul, as well as the young and new generation power Booker and Jokic.

The luxurious lineup allowed the Nets to reach the finals for the third consecutive year, but in the finals, they once again encountered their nightmare-Wang Chao.

Two years ago, when Wang Chao was still in the Nets, he was like a hero to them, helping them win the first championship in team history.

But a year ago, Wang Chao, who joined the Nuggets, shattered their dream of defending the title on the stage of the finals and brought the Nuggets their first championship in team history.

This year, Wang Chao came to the Clippers, and then met the Nets on the stage of the Finals.

Although the Clippers, like the Nuggets, only have Wang Chao as an All-Star player, no one dares to underestimate their strength.

Coming all the way from the west, the Clippers have proved their strength. Even this team doesn't need Wang Chao to put in too much energy on the offensive end, and the offensive ability is completely sufficient.

Both the Clippers and the Nets are one of the teams with the strongest offensive firepower in the league this season. Of course, the Warriors, who were just eliminated by the Clippers in the Western Conference Finals, have a higher offensive efficiency and scoring average than other teams. .

Not surprisingly, this final matchup will be another confrontation battle! ——
I have to admit that the Nets are indeed the opponent with the strongest comprehensive strength in the past two years, but like last year, this team has weaknesses.

The first is the relationship between Durant and Paul.

In the finals last year, the two caused serious conflicts due to their differences, but after failing in the finals, Paul took a look at the suitable teams in the free market, went around and found that the Nets were still the most likely team for him to fulfill his dream of winning the championship. Team, coupled with the Nets management corporal, Paul finally chose to stay in the Nets, and shook hands with Durant, and set sail to attack the championship again.

Although the two have reconciled on the surface, neither of them is the kind of broad-minded player. Since the crack has already occurred, it will naturally not disappear.

This season, there are not many pictures of the two directly cooperating. Although the strength of the team is as strong as ever, it can be clearly seen that the contradiction between the two still exists.

This can be fully utilized.

In addition, the Nets obviously did not make the best use of everything.

Jokic this season is actually quite strong in terms of strength, but due to the existence of three outside players, Jokic is used more as a functional center, and his style of play in the Nets is similar to that of the Clippers Lopez is slightly similar.

This is obviously a great waste. To be fair, if Jokic of the Nets is the perfect all-round fat man with almost no shortcomings in the future, he may really cause Wang Chao a lot of trouble. After all, the Clippers seem to be It seems to be very powerful, but the team can actually only play with the wind.

The magic ball tactic itself is an almost invincible tactic with a favorable wind, but once the team falls into a headwind phase, someone needs to step forward. Apart from Wang Chao himself, he really can't find a second suitable player.

Whether it is Harris, Gallinari or Lu Wei on the bench, they are not players who can attack cities at critical moments.

Therefore, Wang Chao is equivalent to the helm of the Clippers, and must ensure that the team is in a downwind state.

Therefore, thanks to the fact that the Nets have too many talents, Jokic's insider version of the answer has no room to display his strength.
-
On May 5, in the first game of the Finals, the Clippers played against the Nets at home.

At night, the Staples Center was brightly lit, and fans put on white T-shirts that represented the Clippers home color, loudly cheering for their team.

The Clippers' starting five haven't changed from before. They are still Wang Chao, Brogdon, Harris, Gallinari and Lopez.

The Nets start five: Paul, Booker, Bojan Bogdanovic, Durant, Jokic.

In the jump ball stage, Lopez won the ball, and the basketball was directly handed over to Wang Chao.

After Wang Chao dribbled the ball for halftime, Lopez immediately came over to pick and roll for Wang Chao.

With the help of Lopez's pick-and-roll, Wang Chao directly accelerated and hit the inside line to score a layup.

Jokic tried very hard to defend Wang Chao, but his footsteps were slow and it was difficult to keep up with the accelerated Wang Chao.

The main tactic of the Clippers this season is the magic ball tactic of massive three-point accumulation, but the pick-and-roll of Wang Chao and Lopez is also one of the main offensive tools. Once used, it is usually difficult for the opponent to deal with it.

Lopez's shooting percentage from beyond the three-point line this season has reached 37.4%. He is a shooter that cannot be underestimated. Whenever he moves away from the three-point line after setting a pick-and-roll for Wang Chao, a defensive player must follow.

In this way, the main force that can defend Wang Chao is only a slow-moving center forward, of course he cannot defend.

The Nets attacked, Paul held the ball and passed the ball to Booker, who then transferred the ball to Durant who came to the inside and asked for the ball.

After receiving the ball, Durant faced Gallinari's defense and shot a back-up jumper.

Gallinari is 2 meters tall and has a wingspan of 08 meters. Although he is slightly worse than Durant, he is also the player closest to Durant in the team except for Lopez, but he also has no defense against Durant. Effect.

The latter made a steady mid-range shot.

2: 2.

At the beginning of the game, both sides chose to let their main attackers take charge of the offense. Wang Chao and Durant both had very high offensive efficiency, and the scores of the two teams have been rising alternately.

But gradually, Wang Chao began to gain the upper hand in scoring.

After all, Wang Chao can do all kinds of solo work without hesitating his physical strength, but Durant can't. If he doesn't allocate his physical energy well, he will play with Wang Chao like this, and he will have to rest on the sidelines in less than three quarters.

The Nets gradually began to let Paul, Booker and others participate in the offense.

Whether it is Durant, Paul or Booker, they all have one characteristic, that is, the mid-range shots are very precise, and their lethality and threat are far greater than those outside the three-point line and the penalty area.

Regarding this feature, Wang Chao also arranged for the Clippers to conduct targeted defensive training, the purpose of which is to limit their mid-range shooting firepower. (end of this chapter)
