The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 235 Eastern Champion
Paul George showed strong combat power in the second half, and he was woken up by the coach.

He is still young, the game is not over, he cannot admit defeat.

But it's too late now, with more than 20 points behind, not everyone can muster up the courage.

As a result, in the second half, it was a bit like the Pacers helped Paul George brush up the data. Paul George himself was also very bitter, but this is also the team's tactic.

He will immediately renew his contract with the Pacers with a maximum salary, which is also for the team to save face for their core.

The Heat also gave the opponent face. When the Pacers withdrew all the main players in the second half of the final quarter, the Heat also replaced all the main players.

This time, they even crushed each other in rebounds, which shows how weak the team is after losing confidence.

It's 4:0 again, no one said anything about the state coming out too early, and the current Heat are full of domineering.

The Eastern Conference championship awards ceremony is very lively, but apparently some of their players are used to it.

The Heat are the third team in NBA history to reach the finals for 4 consecutive years, comparable to the Lakers and Celtics. "God bless and flattered," James said. "We don't take it for granted. It's an incredible record. It's an incredible team. We know we need to work on it. We never take it for granted. Made it to the Finals four times in a row."

"This team likes to compete, and it's a high level of competition, which will allow us to reach a higher level." Heat coach Spoelstra said.

"It's very disappointing not to complete the goal, especially losing to the same opponent for three consecutive years. We are fighting against the contemporary Jordan and the contemporary Bulls dynasty. For the performance of the Heat in this series, we need to take off our hats." Pacers Coach Vogel expressed his grace.

"They will win the championship, no, we are not their opponents." West of the Pacers described the gap between them and the Heat.

"We worked so hard, but now it's like this, it really hurts us." Stephenson was sad.

The East has reached the top, and then they need to wait for the last opponent.

The game between the Spurs and the Thunder was full of twists and turns.

From Zhang Xiaotian's point of view, the Spurs are stronger, and the Thunder is not weak, but their most powerful weapon just cannot restrain the Spurs.

In the fourth game, the Spurs let the Shuangjun play a super performance, and the Thunder chased the total score to a 2:2 tie.

The Spurs have a single-defense master, and the overall defense is also good. Such a situation should not have happened.

But when you think about it, the Spurs are most afraid of others being unreasonable. It seems reasonable for Durant and Westbrook to lead the team to win the game unreasonably.

The point difference in the third quarter of the game once reached 27 points. Duncan was rarely furious. Not only did he negotiate with the referee several times, but he also argued loudly with Popovich.

"The coach told us that he needs everyone to go all out in the game, and I need to take the lead as a point guard." Westbrook, who hit 40+10+5+5, said, "My task is to be on both ends of the offense and defense. Both control the ball. If you want to win a championship, this is what has to be done."

Du Shao once praised Westbrook as an MVP-level player at the MVP awards ceremony. Today he once again praised his teammates: "His concentration on the defensive end and his lethality on the offensive end are all things we are happy to see. Knows us all too well, but we've built our team on his savagery on the defensive end and his patience on the offensive end."

Westbrook was very efficient today. He shot 5% from the field, only made 5 three-pointers, and made 14 of 14 free throws.Ginobili is very helpless about this: "Sometimes he can do whatever he wants, and he has the ability to do it. If he hits a lot of jumpers, then it will be difficult to defend."

Just like two years ago, the Spurs were once again tied at 2-0. In 2012, the Spurs lost two more games and were reversed by the Thunder 2-2.But Parker said he wasn't worried. "I don't think we should think like that," Parker said. "Every game is different, every series, every year. We've worked hard all year to get home-court advantage, and now it's time to defend it."

Durant also expressed his views on the trend of this series. He said: "We all try to look forward. We know how difficult it is to play away and win. We have to deal with everything. Now we feel good, But it wasn't enough."

But there can only be one winner, Zhang Xiaotian and other Heat players are already adjusting their state and preparing for the finals.

In the fifth game, the Spurs changed their lineup to play one big and four small ones, and added an outside shot. Duncan, a man who didn't want to grow old, beat the Thunder's young man inside alone, and the Spurs won Tianwangshan.

Compared with the Eastern Conference finals, the Spurs and Thunder are a bit incomprehensible.

Every game can't reach the end, either you hang me, or I hang you.

"This is the craziest series I have ever experienced." Duncan, a veteran who entered the NBA in 1997, sighed.If the Spurs win the next game, Duncan will be able to lead the team to the finals for two consecutive years.

"Honestly, I don't have an answer," Popovich said. "I feel like every game is different, and that's how it is. My team and I have been talking about it, and we don't have any clues." , I don’t know what is going to happen, I don’t know why there is such a big difference in points, I don’t know if they are playing dead or controlling the situation, I don’t know if the game is [-]-[-] or not.”

Back in San Antonio, the Thunder seem to have returned to the rhythm of losing a total of 52 points in the first two games, although this time there is Ibaka on the court. "We let them do whatever they want, they dribble to the basket, hit three-pointers, go to the free throw line." Thunder coach Brooks said.

"Our shots don't have crosshairs, we need to be aggressive, we need to defend, and when we can't hit the shot, we need to survive on defense, but we didn't do that today." Durant was a little annoyed.

The Spurs' change is a big reason, which the Thunder can't do. They only have one strongest lineup.

Anyway, at the end of May, their sixth game started.

In comparison, the Heat are more willing to meet the Thunder. The Thunder can score only a few points, and there are fewer variables.

But it doesn't matter if they meet the Spurs. After all, Duncan is one year older.

Although he didn't say it on the surface, as a teammate, Zhang Xiaotian still understood James' thoughts. James wanted to beat the Spurs, but he fell in front of the Spurs twice.

For Zhang Xiaotian, no matter which opponent he meets, he is full of confidence.

In the finals, he will show his strongest self, and it is time to use some preparation methods.

Mr. Key's level 2 key game attribute, he didn't deliberately keep it until now, the team performed too well before, but it doesn't make a difference.
