Chapter 2166 Xi Jusi people are scattered, Yangguan has no old friends

Utah Jazz?

Tang Qian looked at the opponent's lineup, well, Mitchell + Royce O'Neal + Gobert + Bogdanovic + Mike Conley.

How about this lineup, you said Mitchell can't do it?That can't be said, anyway, the fourth grade is now averaging 26 points per game, 26+5+5, although he is a bit tough in this era, his performance is definitely not bad.But if you want to look at his cards and star energy, that's not enough.

2 All-Stars, then [-] All-Rookie First Team, then nothing.

This card is the leader of this team. Seriously, compared to those previous MVP levels, and even several MVP-level Western Conference finals, this is simply——

Tang Qian played the Western Conference Finals with the least sense of tension.

You say Gobert shouldn't be ignored?

It's a pity that at this time, his honor has been greatly depreciated. For example, DPOY's best defensive player cannot get any of them.It is impossible to get it in one defense.After all, there is only one center position.

So so far his honor is at the level of a defensive blue-collar star, and it seems that there has been no qualitative change at all.

What's more, with Tang Qian, any inside line is a piece of cake. Gobert never thought of defending Tang Qian by himself.

Unless he wants to court death.

As for Conley, who is now 33 years old, with a 5-year 1.53 million contract, it opened the era of Mr. Billion for mediocre players. Then, what else?Who do you think he can handle against the Lakers' current group?
Yes, he is probably the best No. 1 in the history of the Grizzlies, but what level of team history is the Grizzlies?
In the entire league, even if he is at his peak, he is still a quasi-All-Star when he breaks through.

The only time the All-Star was this season was because Booker was injured, so he was called to replace him temporarily.

Otherwise, he would never be an All-Star in his lifetime.

So as an All-Star, he is very good, and at his peak, he is just a quasi-All-Star with good defense.

When he got the league's super-fat contract, he was also signed by the Grizzlies. No one signed him, and it was cheaper for him, otherwise it would be impossible to change teams.

Representatives whose ability is lower than salary.

It's not that he can't do it, the main reason is that his salary is too high.

And no matter how good his defense is, he still plays the 1st position, but the current [-]st position of the Lakers is the bulldozer, LeBron James.

Just defending against Conley's body, King will rush him to the point where his mother doesn't even recognize him.

When switching defenses, Butler, George, and Ingram don't have a good defense. The latter two have too much height advantage, and Conley is the most difficult to defend against.Butler, after playing in form last year, is in his best form this year. In the training match, he is just like the Western Conference Finals. He is tough on James at every turn. Everyone can see that even if James comes, he will not give up easily.

Really. Daji dad is not kidding.

The rest of them are not at the star level, even quasi-stars can't reach it, so there is no need to introduce them at all.

The five-star Lakers, this is a real super strength. This year, the Lakers spent a horrible luxury tax to win the team for this six-game winning streak.

When it is completed, there will be a qualitative improvement from the players and the team.

In addition, the Lakers also have the advantage of the bench lineup. In this round of the series, Tang Qian simply felt that it was too boring.

It's not that they look down on the Jazz, but the level is too low to compare with their previous opponents.

In the Western Conference Finals in previous years, which one was not a super team?

The Spurs in 14 were originally the championship team, and they won with a super 0-3 super counterattack.

The original championship Warriors in 15 years.

The Warriors won 16+ games in 70 years.

17 years of cosmic bravery.

18 years of hellfire.

19 years of cosmic bravery.

20 years super boat.

21...

Utah Jazz.

It was the first time in Tang Qian's life that he played in such an unsuspecting Western Conference Finals.

ESPN gave this round of the series a 0.001% comeback probability, which shows how much they look down on the people of Salt Lake City.

But what can be done?

Even Mitchell knows that the opponent is too strong, don't even think about it, 80 wins this year, all five stars are online, this——

Also play a ball.

Even if Mitchell showed last year's playoff status, he was crazy and superb, averaging 36 and seven points per game, and that's it.

There is a monster on the opposite side, 36 seven points, not enough for one person to cut.

37+20+7+5 This is Tang Qian's regular season data, which is claimed to be caused by "closed play" and "significant drop in playing time".

This……

How to compare?
At the beginning of the playoffs, No. 29 really regained his identity as a Tyrannosaurus rex. He scored a total of 287 points in the first round of four games.

Mitchell felt dizzy when he saw it. Is this playing 2k?
In the second round, I started to do more pivoting. The so-called reduction of personal shooting performance was good for my teammates to do a good job, and then I got an average of 45+30+10+10 per game.

Mitchell: ...

Averaging a quadruple-double, you told me that you did it for the performance of your teammates?
So Mitchell, the leader of the Jazz, said before the game——

We are still playing in the Western Conference Finals for the first time, we are still a young team, and we have come to the top of the Western Conference to learn and observe.

Good guy, this is tantamount to directly saying that we can't beat it, and it's normal to lose. Fans should not have any illusions and expectations of us that we shouldn't.

But now in the west, all the super teams have been broken up by Tang Qian, which is supported by these stragglers.

At the press conference before the start of the game, Tang Qian hadn't said anything yet, and his two, three, four, five masters all stood up and pretended to be coercive.

Do you still need Boss Tang? I'll just tell you, 4-0, sweeping is not negotiable. —— Butler, the patriarch of the Six Dynasties.

I will perform well this year, and I will definitely stay in the team next year. I have this confidence. Please pay attention to my performance in the finals. ——Tell the management before I started, I played well this year, remember George who hurriedly renewed my contract during the offseason.

I never thought it would be as easy to make the playoffs in the West as it is in the East. ——Ah King is indeed a master of pretense now, not only pointing out his former king of the Eastern Conference, but also highlighting the invincibility of the Lakers this year.

In terms of the art of speaking, Tang Qian is now convinced by King.

I hope to get the second ring, the third ring and the fourth ring in this team. As long as Boss Tang is there, I think I can look forward to it. ——Ingram, who is younger, is just a sycophant. Anyway, no one takes the Jazz seriously.

No, Tang Qian can only stand up and say a few official words, why not underestimate the enemy, the Jazz is still very good, and there are no weak teams in the Western Conference finals.

Then--

Tang Qian was "slapped in the face" by his own words.

Because, there is really such a "underdog" who has reached the Western Conference Finals.

In the first game, the Jazz, who were in the state of sightseeing and studying, still had a little heart at first, and wanted to fight the so-called five-star Lakers.Then James led the team to run and bomb, and played a wave of 48-29 at the beginning.

The Jazz Mitchell didn't feel good tonight. Well, he wasn't an efficient person at first, and his shooting percentage has been around 4% for a long time.This isn't pretty in this space age. After all, not everyone is like "Brother Deng" who can score 3 or [-] points a few times.

That kind of efficiency can't be learned by ordinary people.

I was thinking of regrouping in the second quarter and then making gestures, but I didn't expect that the first quarter was actually just the Lakers warming up, and the second quarter began to show off.From the substitute to the main force, all three-pointers took off, brushing and brushing——

Almost 60 points were scored in a single quarter.

With 2 points in the 110nd quarter, how can this Nima play?
The point is that they can't stop each other at all, and they can't beat the offense. Tang Qian didn't do anything to make a wall and countermeasures. He just stood in a low position and played occasionally, which made the Jazz "disturbed", and didn't know how to defend. good.

Throughout the season, one person can defend one or even two of the opponent's inside gods, Ta Gobert, who was eaten one-on-one by No. 29 of the Lakers and became a glutinous rice cake.Knead, squeeze, and shape as you want. Tang Qian didn't pay attention to this kind of lightweight insider.This kind of 260 pounds, in front of Tang Qian, is a collective term——

Paper people.

Gobert is going to be beaten to tears, Tang Qian hit him with all kinds of violence, now Tang Qian's 2.0 rules are gone, if one doesn't pay attention, he will roll over and fall to the ground, and then watch the opponent's soles fly over his head to dunk .

temper?

nonexistent.

Now who dares to play with this number 29?
Someone said a big truth, that is——

If you want to get rid of the tyrant Don, the court becomes your only chance.

This is...

Tang Qian clocked in in 3 quarters and easily scored 35+27+11+6. When he was interviewed after the game, he hardly broke a sweat.

On the other hand, in the team, there is a very interesting situation, that is, the second, third, fourth and fifth leaders of the team all began to "fight openly and secretly" for the team's ranking and top spot in the team.

In a word-they all want to be the second in command of the Lakers.

So even after clocking in three quarters, the Lakers still scored 179 points, which made the opponent feel creepy.

They beat the Jazz by 66 points.

All of a sudden, the Jazz lost their temper completely. Mitchell said after the game——

As I said long ago, I am still a rookie in the playoffs, and I am here to learn and observe how the best teams and players in the world play in the playoffs.

Anyway, he scored almost 30 points in the game, which is not bad.

Gobert said—

He has tried his best, but no one is sweating, what else can he do?This is the difference between Earthlings and Kryptonians.

Well, people on earth can't satisfy Tang Qian now?Just straight up a Kryptonian?

The second game, the third game, and the fourth game, there was no suspense at all. Whatever you played in the first game, you will play in the next game.

In the last game, Tang Qian even played for only 19 minutes before going down. Now he doesn't need to use statistics to prove anything.

What?You said the finals?
Well, then we still have to play hard, so as not to be caught by others and get the FMVP, that would be bad.

Ask Tang Qian why he went down so early, Tang Qian choked to death with one sentence——

Is there a difference I don't have?All I can think about right now is the championship.

Well, didn't you say earlier that the Jazz are a good team, and even if they can enter the Western Conference Finals, they are not underdogs?

Forget it so quickly?

Well, the essence of human beings is double standards. Don’t you understand this truth? Tang Qian is really about to doze off at the level of the Jazz.

Suddenly, he even felt a little bit infinitely nostalgic for those opponents who fought bloody battles in the Western Conference Finals every year.

Alas, Xijuesi people are scattered, but Yangguan has no old friends.

West Jue is lonely.

……

ESPN conducted one of the most boring Western Conference finals votes, No.1 in history, one vote, this year's round, decisively tops the list.

In this round of the Western Conference finals, Tang Qian generally won the data of 31+25+7+4+1 in soy sauce, but the Lakers were the second in charge, and the fight was fierce.

James scored 25+ quasi-triple-doubles, Butler scored 25 points, George 23 points, and Ingram 19 points.

The intensity made Ah King almost overturned, thinking that fortunately I was steady, otherwise I would really be going to be the third master?
That would be absolutely unacceptable to James.

I, LeBron, King James, do not deserve anything other than working for the strongest player in history.

Three masters?That is impossible.

Tang Qian also saw this situation, but he didn't intervene, because with him, the team couldn't be chaotic, so it's good to have healthy competition and make troubles. What the consecutive championship teams lack most is stimulation.It would be great to find some by yourself.

In this way, the Utah Jazz, with an attitude of sightseeing and learning, was swept out by the Lakers with an average of 150+ points per game.

Then with the prestige of a complete victory in the Western Conference, Tang Qian waited for the Eastern Bucks and Nets to be beaten in the finals.
