Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 1008 [Sweep! As long as the heart is strong enough]

After center Gasol returned, the Grizzlies improved in the second half and finally made the playoffs.

Point guard Mike Conley defended Guo Xu, allowing him to score only 18.5 points in the series. His 46% shooting rate was the biggest highlight. Of course, this was also related to Guo Xu's reduced passing attempts. He also averaged 12 assists per game.

Conley has been dubbed a short floor player since his debut. In fact, he is a very physically strong player, but his style of play is simple and unpretentious. During the physical test, his 3/4 field sprint speed reached an astonishing 3.09 seconds, his body fat rate was only 4.2%, his stand-up jump was 90CM, and his approach vertical jump reached 103CM. In Derrick Rose's physical test, his approach vertical jump was only 102CM. .

However, the Grizzlies' lineup has very obvious flaws, with poor offense and defense on the wings. This problem doomed their outcome.

The Grizzlies traded Tayshaun Prince from the Rockets to serve as the starting small forward. He is already 33 years old and past his prime. His shooting percentage on the offensive end has dropped significantly, and on the defensive end, he cannot withstand the offense of the Suns' two major swingmen.

Prince is good at defending swingmen like Roy who combine sudden shooting and shooting. He doesn't have much to do with Thompson who is actively looking for cover and running. It's useless for him to catch up with Thompson. The opponent has no chance to take action and immediately passes the ball without any delay. .

If the Grizzlies could poach Tony Allen from the Celtics, their defense would be much better. Unfortunately, the contract they offered was not big enough, and the Celtics let Ray Allen go. They were short of shooting guards, so they chose a matching contract. Keep people.

The Grizzlies' Spanish Twin Towers are strong enough that the Suns are difficult to defend when attacking, but they mainly score two points. The Suns' offense is more efficient. They pull out from the inside to constantly cover their teammates, help them break through or shoot three-pointers.

Guo Xu didn't exert any force, and the point difference between the two sides in each game was not big. The most they won was 14 points. The Suns were better than the Grizzlies in key shots in the final quarter.

4-0, the Suns swept the first round and advanced, maintaining a tradition that has been in place for many years.

After the game, Guo Xu commented on Conley, calling him an underrated star point guard.

The team that advanced on the same day was the Cavaliers, which swept the Nets 4-0. The highlight was that the fans were lucky enough to see 23VS24.

In the second half of the regular season, Kobe's statistics improved to 19.6 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5 assists, shooting 46.3% from the field, 32.4% from three-point range, and 84% from free throws.

As long as he is determined enough, Kobe can get to the low post, allowing Howard to take fewer shots and allowing Pierce to become a fixed-point three-point shooter.

Kobe often reached out for the ball in the backcourt.

Or as soon as half-time is over, the ball should be brought to a familiar position. If Deron Williams doesn't pass the ball, some fans will call him a loser after the game and he is seriously overrated.

Until they were eliminated, the Nets, who wanted to focus on the triangle offense, had not solved the problem of who should be on the strong side and who should be on the weak side. No matter which three of the Big Four form the triangle, there are always conflicts. There are often people on the left and right in the low post, trying to get the ball together.

In the end, no one on the Nets averaged 20 points per game, and the Big Four were holding each other back. They were completely different from the Green Army's Big Three who sacrificed data to ensure efficient play.

Howard averaged 17 points per game, Pierce 13.7 points and Deron 14.3 points. Except for Jamison and Blatche, the role players were basically spectators. The team averaged only 98.5 points per game and conceded 101.6 points.

Kobe's statistics are the best among the Nets stars. His number of shots hit a personal low in the past 15 years. His selflessness moved a group of people. Many Komies said that Kobe exploded in the second half and single-handedly led the Nets into the playoffs.

The Kobes in the parallel world probably said the same thing. The difference is that Kobe, who led the Lakers F4, played more minutes and had better and more impressive statistics. Moreover, Kobe suffered a torn left Achilles tendon in the game that narrowly defeated the Warriors by 2 points and was seriously injured.

The Nets' Kobe Bryant is still relatively healthy, but has a finger injury and a bone spur in his foot, which does not affect his appearance.

As for the number of free throws in the game between the Warriors and the Lakers, which was 16 to 50, a defensive player blew at Kobe one meter away from him, and he was able to get to the free throw line. Don't worry about these details...

The Nets' strength is worse than last season. They have not cooperated in the playoffs and are full of loopholes on the defensive end. The fans think Kobe is the best on the Nets, but the Nets players don't think so.

Last summer, Howard said in an interview that joining the Nets was the right choice. At the press conference after being eliminated this year, Howard, who became a free agent, directly began to force the court. There's only one possibility for me to stay with the Nets in the summer, and that's if they send Kobe away. I've had enough.

Deron lamented: People used to say that point guards' statistics would decline as long as they were paired with Kobe. I didn't believe it. I thought I was strong enough to be the exception. Now I believe it.

We just didn't feel like a team at all, and I felt it was time to separate, Pierce said.

Jamison said depressingly: I have played for the Warriors before. This time I chose the Nets because I was just obsessed. I wasted a precious year in vain.

Blatche didn't say anything. He planned to keep a low profile and fight for a minimum salary to join the Warriors in the summer, because Guo Xu was optimistic about the Warriors and he believed in his vision.

The Warriors have already risen this year, and many veterans from other teams think the same way and plan to cut their salaries to join.

The Spurs swept the Clippers 4-0.

Chris Paul defeated Tony Parker, but he was helpless and could not complain. His teammates' performance was not good, and he was abused again.

Star power forward Griffin was sleepwalking in the playoffs, shooting only 46.2% from the field and averaging 15 points, 6 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game. Duncan averaged a double-double of 21 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists and 2.5 blocks per game.

In the fourth game after being eliminated, Griffin was in foul trouble and only played 22 minutes. He made 2 of 7 shots and scored 4 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. He was brutally abused by Duncan, which was shocking.

The Clippers' inside players lack shooting range, which is their fatal weakness. Griffin's dunks are very domineering. He was regarded as a super power forward as soon as he entered the league and was selected as a starter in the Western Conference All-Stars. In fact, Griffin only scored two points when he dunked on his opponent. Anything to improve morale was in vain. The team needs him to make stable mid-range shots.

If the opponent is cowering in the penalty area and cannot come out, what will happen no matter how high the morale is?

Duncan made a lot of mid-range shots at the plate, which taught Griffin a good lesson. Follow my left and right hands in slow motion, and my right and left hands will be replayed in slow motion...

Griffin said: Although I couldn't beat Duncan, I reported this rookie for smoking in public.

The Thunder eliminated the Kings 4-2.

Harden and Walker performed well, and winning two games is already impressive. The king inside was exposed. Little Shark Bynum averaged only 12.5 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in the playoffs, shooting 47% from the field.

In 2011, a bug appeared in the 2K game. Bynum ran to the center circle and performed the same celebration as Guo Xu. He was called Bynum Jesus. Many people thought that he would be the destined son of the NBA in the future.

In fact, Bynum in the game is suspected of being mentally retarded. Instead of celebrating after scoring a goal, he plays Jesus during the game.

The Warriors eliminated the Lakers 4-2. Curry shot 40% from three-point range in the series, averaging 3.5 per game.

Without Bogut, the Lakers' defense in the penalty area has become significantly weaker. Lopez, who faced Bosh, averaged 22+10 per game, dominating the penalty area, hitting hard in the low post time and time again, and even making mid-range shots when pulled out.

It's not that Bosh is weak, he is really not suitable to play center, he is too thin. He plays a good role in defending pick-and-rolls as a center, but he can't handle heavy centers.

In other Eastern Conference series, the Knicks eliminated the Celtics 4-1, and the Heat eliminated the Bulls 4-1.

The competition between No. 4 and No. 5 was the most intense. The 76ers defeated the Bucks 4-3 with great difficulty. In the tiebreaker, David Lee scored 24 points, 12 rebounds and 5 assists, and Lou Williams also scored 26 points.
