Godfather of the NBA: Cutting Curry and creating a dynasty

Chapter 116 "Wind City Rose" Falls

The Thunder swept the Grizzlies, which was a bit unacceptable at first.

But after careful consideration, it seems to be reasonable.

It is mainly the Thunder's three strong points, which the Grizzlies can't solve at all.

First of all, the number one star in the team is currently the second small forward in the NBA, Kevin Durant.

Yang Li hates this guy, as for the reason...

One night, Yang Li was about to go to bed when he suddenly received an anonymous text message on his cell phone.

Although Yang Li didn't know this number, he guessed who sent this text message in an instant.

Because this text message is to ask Yang Li to buy the widow's sister's bath water.

Yang Li directly deleted the text message, and then added the number to the blacklist.

Then he pulled up the widow sister who had just taken a shower and fell asleep, and played a sweaty ball game with the dazed widow sister.

"Yang, it's all your fault, I have to take another bath."

The widow muttered shyly, then turned and went to the shower room.

Looking at the widow's back, Yang Li fell asleep contentedly.

Isn't it the widow's bath water?

I have plenty here!

But I just won't give it to you!

Oops, this is going too far.

This year's Durant can be said to be very incomprehensible, averaging 28 points, 8 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game in the regular season.

In the regular season MVP voting rate is second only to LeBron James.

His advantage lies in the high efficiency and stability of COSCO.

Moreover, Durant is not only tall and long, but also very flexible.

So the breakthrough ability is also very strong.

Facing such a superstar combined with sudden shooting, the Grizzlies can't stop it at all.

Rudy Gay is not a good defender, so he can't limit Durant's scoring at all.

In the series against the Grizzlies, the "thunder three" played the best.

It's actually the second brother, Russell Westbrook.

Westbrook's impact this year is really too strong, how strong is it?

Let's just talk about the person who defends him on the opposite side, the perimeter defensive expert Tony Allen.

But when facing Westbrook, he was forced into a sieve by Westbrook.

There is not even a trace of room for resistance.

As for Conley, let alone.

With a height of 1 meters, he is a whole circle thinner than Westbrook.

Let him defend against Westbrook, then Westbrook will directly become Jordan.

The third brother "White Warcraft" Blake Griffin is also a player with very abnormal physical fitness.

As for how strong he is, there is no need for those redundant words.

As long as you know that this year's Griffin has directly entered the All-Star starter, this is enough to explain the problem.

To briefly describe Griffin's characteristics, it is tall, strong and flexible.

The forward players he is least afraid of are short, strong and flexible.

After all, he has the same high advantage.

Coincidentally, Randolph is a stocky and flexible power forward.

Although Gasol has a strong ability to protect the frame, he can't do much at all in the face of talented monsters like Westbrook and Griffin hitting the basket.

As for the eldest brother Durant, he didn't need to hit the basket at all, he just shot the Grizzlies from the outside.

In this year's Western Conference playoffs, for the first time, four teams from the upper half swept all four teams from the lower half.

It was just too cruel.

This also illustrates a problem, that is, the pattern of the west has basically been finalized.

The Clippers, Lakers, Spurs and Thunder, the four contend for hegemony.

The situation in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs is relatively normal...oh no, it is also very abnormal!

Chicago Bulls star Derrick Rose was accidentally injured on a layup in Game [-] of the playoffs.

After the game, the team doctor identified Rose's injury as a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.

Missed the rest of the season.

At the same time, Rose's next season will be completely reimbursed due to this injury.

It was also from this injury that the "Wind City Rose" began to fall.

After Yang Li heard the news, he had an idea:

If there is a chance in the future, we must bring Rose to the Clippers!

Subsequently, the Chicago Bulls, who lost their star, were eliminated by the 76ers 4:2.

The Philadelphia 76ers became the fifth team in NBA history to complete the "Black Eight".

In the other three-round series, the Boston Celtics defeated the Orlando Magic without star Dwight Howard with a big score of 4:1.

The Miami Heat of the young Big Three defeated the New York Knicks of the "Sgua" combination with a big score of 4:1.

The Pacers also defeated the Atlanta Hawks with a big score of 4:2.

While the second round of the playoffs was going on, many awards for the 2011-2012 season were also announced one after another.

The first is the Rookie of the Year award, which was won by the Cavaliers' No. [-] pick Kyrie Irving.

In his rookie season, Irving averaged 18.5 points, 3.7 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.1 steals per game.

The player with the best statistics in the 2011 rookie class, so this is also expected.

And Owen won the Rookie of the Year Award, the happiest person turned out to be Yang Li.

After all, Owen is a player signed by "Qingli Sports". He has a gorgeous style of play and a good performance. Isn't it just right to sell shoes?

The Owen generation has already been developed and will be released this summer.

Then, there's the All-Rookie Team of the Year.

There are 7 people in the first team. Except for Irving, the other 6 people are:

Kenneth Faried, averaging 10.2 points, 7.7 rebounds and 1 block per game.

Ricky Rubio averaged 10.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 8.2 assists and 2.2 steals per game.

Klay Thompson averaged 8.5 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2 assists and 0.7 steals per game.

Kawhi Leonard, averaging 7.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.3 steals per game.

Jimmy Butler, averaging 7.6 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists, plus 1.0 steals per game.

Isaiah Thomas averaged 7.5 points, 2.6 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 0.8 steals per game.

I don't know how much Yang Li was charged by this group of selection guys, but they actually put all 4 Clippers rookies into the first team!

The players in the second team also have better statistics than the four, but they can all enter the first team.

One of the judges commented on the matter:

"We are selecting the player with the best performance, not the player with the best statistics!"

Then, he announced the efficiency values ​​​​of the players in the All-Rookie Team.

The efficiency values ​​​​of the four are all above 15, second only to the No. [-] pick Kyrie Irving!

Then, there is the result of DPOY.

The winner is Paul Millsap of the Clippers!

Unexpectedly, after Dayao's absence, Millsap turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

Millsap's performance on the defensive end conquered all the judges, especially his excellent offensive and defensive performance, which directly filled the impression points.

The most interesting thing is that the result of the voting is not that Millsap has an absolute advantage.

He was only a little bit close to falling to the second place, missing out on this DPOY award!
