And the media is also full of praise. Among all the playoffs, none of them can win so easily as the Sonics. It seems that this is the gap in strength. No matter what adjustments you make, it is still Change is of no use.

The Sonics easily defeated their opponents like a crush. It is also a playoff team. Why is the gap so big? This is not just one person's thinking, but many people's thinking, but it is everyone's thinking .

calm?No need, be cautious?Not to mention, strength is king, comeback?Already leading [-]-[-], can the Suns still win three games in a row?Don't be kidding, now this Suns team is no longer the Suns team of the previous two seasons, and if they want to make a comeback, they have to have that ability.

As the second day passed, the West completed the third round of the matchup. Compared with the Sonics' victory over the Suns, other teams have more or less encountered certain difficulties.

After the Denver Nuggets returned to their home stadium, the Pepsi Center, they defeated the upstart New Orleans Hornets by a big score. Carmelo Anthony scored 46 points, eight rebounds and four steals. Allen Iverson scored 26 points , but sent [-] assists.

The New Orleans Hornets started the game with a three-pointer by Chris Paul, taking the lead once, and then until the end of the game, the Nuggets maintained a lead of more than [-] points, and it was not until the end that Stojako Vichy used two consecutive three-pointers to catch up with nine points.

The Los Angeles Lakers' victory at their home stadium, the Staples Center, was quite refreshing, but back at the Rockets' home stadium, the Toyota Center, it was not so easy. Yao Ming not only scored 29 points and [-] rebounds himself, Also sent four assists and two blocks. [ ]【】

Under his huge inside containment, the Rockets made a rain of three-pointers in this game. Alston made four of six shots, Luther Head made three of five shots, Sean Battier made three of three shots, and McGregor made three of three shots. Although Di only made two three-pointers, he scored 31 points.

The combination of inside and outside and the explosion of the touch outside the three-point line gave the Rockets a hearty victory. Although they only beat the Lakers by [-] points due to the slack in the later stage, it also made people see the combat effectiveness of the Rockets. . (hand type)()( ()()

The reason why the Lakers lost the game in this game, in addition to the explosion of the Rockets, they also had a little problem, probably because of the two consecutive victories, they were a little slack at the beginning of the game, After being led by the Rockets, he has been unable to enter the game state.

After they tried their best to close the score, they once again thought that the game was under their control. As a result, after McGrady and Yao Ming joined hands, it took only 2 minutes to overtake and lead again, and then they were no longer Never gave the Lakers a chance.

After the Mavericks returned to their own territory, they also dealt a severe blow to the Spurs. I don't know if it was true or they were playing for a truce. In this game, Vicky let Ginobili sit on the court Even Duncan and Tony Parker sat on the sidelines and rested for most of the second half after the Mavericks took a big lead.

But when the game was about to end, **Vitch replaced Duncan and Tony Parker again. After the two played soy sauce for 2 minutes, the game was over. Isn't this purely disgusting? It's just disgusting It's just the league, but even so, the Mavericks feel like they've been insulted. [ ]

The only team in the East that did not win at home was the Toronto Raptors. However, since they had already won a game against the Magic in Orlando, the score between the two sides was still two to one. 【】

Before the start of the fourth game, the league announced the winner of the best sixth man of the season. Ginobili lived up to expectations and defeated Jason Terry, Leon Barbosa and others to win the award.

Before the start of Game [-], the league announced the winner of the sportsmanship award for the season, and Grant Hill from the Phoenix Suns won the award.

The Sportsmanship Award is to commend players for their competitive spirit, sportsmanship and social contributions. Each team nominates a candidate, and then a panel of seven experts will select the candidates for each sub-division, and then all players will vote to decide the final Candidates.

The winners of this award are generally those players who play more elegantly, play less violently, and have a better reputation and popularity. Although the Supersonics nominated Stephen, they did not qualify in the sub-division. Brandon Roy won the right to qualify, but he was ranked last in the league vote. After all, he just entered the league, so it's normal that he doesn't have much popularity.

Grant Hill finally defeated Billups, Ray Allen and others to win the "Joe Dumars" award. Under normal circumstances, players with relatively strong performances are generally impossible to win this award. The league sees it as an enemy that could win the award.

Since the game happened to be held in Phoenix, the league airlifted the Joe Dumars trophy to Phoenix, where Senior Vice President Adam Silva presented the award to Grant Hill during halftime, and the fans who attended the game You will receive a free Grant Hill training t-shirt from the team.

The league will also make a donation to Grant Hill's foundation or a charitable organization he supports in recognition of his sportsmanship, and Stephen also sent Grant Hill's congratulations, along with a small $[-] check , which counts as sponsorship.

This is the second time for Grant Hill to win this award. If he was born in Duke University, he would have achieved limitless achievements if it were not for injuries. ability.

He once led the college star team to defeat the dream team that was in full swing at the time. After entering the league, his performance was also extraordinary. At the same time, he led the then Detroit Pistons out of the trough, but due to the style of play, he was criticized by many people for being weak.

In order to counter these criticisms, Grant Hill decided to play with an injury, and the injury aggravated. This injury also became a watershed in his career. endless loop.

Joe Dumars, who just took office, has extraordinary and keen vision. He sent away the symbol of the team Grant Hill as soon as he took power, and exchanged Atkins and Ben Wallace from the Magic. For the first time, everyone was stunned, thinking that Joe Dumars had made a loss-making deal.

Except for the boss of the Pistons who still firmly supports him, even Detroit fans don't understand Joe Dumars' deal. In this way, he has also received a lot of criticism, but it turns out that he is the opponent.

Playing 43 games in three seasons, this is Grant Hill's contribution to the Magic, but this contributor is carrying a huge contract of [-] million for seven years, but the Pistons have defeated the Magic in the playoffs for two consecutive years.

For this elegant and outstanding senior, Stephen can only feel unfortunate and unfair in his heart, but Grant Hill has already adapted to it. After coming to Phoenix, he has played a full season in good health.

The two said they chatted together for a while, and Grant Hill didn't talk to Stephen about injuries or other topics, but asked Stephen about the University of Southern California. He had a nephew who wanted to be sent to the acting department of the University of Southern California. .

Stephen gave a general introduction. Although he only stayed at the University of Southern California for one year, he is a member of the Trojans after all, and he can still get a lot of information by chance.

The atmosphere between the two sides before the game was very friendly, but once the game arrived, the Suns, who had no way out, played very resolutely from the beginning. For them, they wanted to avoid the embarrassing situation of being swept by a new army team. You have to win this game.

But the Sonics didn't make enough mental preparations. They just wanted to sweep their opponents and easily advance to the semifinals, but they didn't expect that none of the teams that could enter the playoffs was easy to mess with, let alone a few teams. Since the season, the Suns have been one of the strong teams in the West, so it would be so easy to lose.

The Sonics launched a counterattack several times in a row. Carlesimo also reversed the stability of the previous three games. He stood up frequently and scolded the players and called a timeout. However, facing the Suns who were attacking like crazy, they still couldn't cope. It feels like the score is constantly being pulled closer and then pulled away.

In the third quarter, with Stephen's consecutive scoring, the Sonics once overtook the score and led by two points, but the Suns quickly overtook the score again, and then no matter how much the Sonics chased points, they couldn't win. The points difference narrowed.

Carlesimo even sent Robert Horry on the field, but he still couldn't reverse the situation on the court. It's not that the Sonics didn't play well, but the Suns played too well. Struggling to win with fewer and fewer chances, but it is a pity that it is useless to change the Suns today.

In the end, the Sonics lost the game 120 to 46. Although Stephen scored [-] points, [-] rebounds and [-] assists, it was still useless. With a sense of loss, the entire Sonics took a special plane Returned to Seattle.
