Legendary star

Chapter 367 Duncan at the end of the season

"Xiao Xu, what are you watching? Don't go to bed early." On May 2002, 5, after 14 o'clock in the evening, Meng Xu sat in the living room alone, watching the screen that was being played on the TV. Xu had already turned down the volume of the TV to very low, but He Hui in the upstairs bedroom was still woken up by Meng Xu.

"Oh, I'm watching the game." After hearing He Hui's voice, Meng Xu replied listlessly. At the moment, the TV is showing the Western Conference semifinals, the fifth game between the Spurs and the Lakers. It was over in less than a minute, 5 to 1, and the Spurs were still 83 points behind the Lakers in the away game. At the same time as O'Neal made a free throw, Duncan stood with his hands on his hips and stood expressionlessly on the edge of the paint.

"Is it the competition of the seniors?" He Hui came down from the stairs with the rattling sound, and sat on the sofa next to Meng Xu. It may be because He Hui had just taken a shower, but He Hui's hair still looked a little bit Wet and smelled like shower gel.

"Tim is already so strong, but the Spurs still don't have any chance." Meng Xu shook his head as he looked at Duncan, who was obviously settled but still didn't give up and was still entangled with O'Neal at the basket. In the first game, Duncan played the whole game, scored 36 points, 25 rebounds, and 6 blocked shots. However, the Spurs never took the lead even once in the whole game, and they were always chasing behind the Lakers.And this game is also a microcosm of this round of the series. Throughout the series, Duncan averaged 30 points, 17.5 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3.4 blocks per game. However, the Spurs scored 1-4. The total score, lost this round of the series, except for Kobe's abnormal performance in G2, where he made 25 of 9 shots and hit 16 irons. The Spurs won a victory. Opportunity.

After Meng Xu left, the Spurs' series of operations were still very successful. Tony Parker, who was selected in the first round, was still immature, but he was already able to carry the banner of point guard. Wen, Austin Crohill, Steve Smith, and Charles Smith also performed well. With the addition of LaFrentz and David Robinson, it is more than enough to deal with most teams in the league. Yes, but when they meet the Lakers, the Spurs will have a very difficult time.The Spurs couldn't guard O'Neal, and the Lakers couldn't guard Duncan either. The inside lines of the two sides were completely explosive, but the Spurs' outside lines basically had nothing to do with Kobe. A few points, and for the Spurs, Parker scored the second highest score with only 20 points. After Parker, Bowen and LaFrentz scored 13 points. At the critical moment of the game, no one from the Spurs could help Duncan.On the opposite side of the Lakers, O'Neal and Kobe both averaged more than 8 points per game. Hawley, Fisher, and Fox can all contribute 25+ points per game steadily. In this case, the Spurs can win. up.

"The Spurs' lineup this year is not very good. There is no strong point outside to offset Kobe's advantage, and after David's comeback this time, he is completely out of shape." Watching the game that has ended on TV, He Hui also He said with some regret that, like Meng Xu, after staying in San Antonio for two years, He Hui also has feelings for that city and the Spurs team.Especially David Robinson, the former superstar, came back early in this round of the series after being injured in the first round of the playoffs, but his performance was not satisfactory, averaging only 6 points and 7 points per game. In today's game, he made 5 of 0 shots and failed to score 1 point. His late hero figure is also embarrassing.

"Xiao Xu, you can call the senior later." Looking at the lonely figure of Duncan walking into the player tunnel in the TV camera, He Hui put his hand on Meng Xu's shoulder and said.

"Tim won't answer my phone." Meng Xu shook his head, and immediately rejected He Hui's suggestion. At this time, even if Meng Xu called Duncan, with Duncan's personality, he would most likely not. The one who answered Meng Xu's call, and even if Duncan answered, Meng Xu didn't know what to say to him?After thinking about how to comfort him, Meng Xu turned off the TV and got up to leave. "The game is over, go to sleep, Sister Hui, you should also go to bed earlier, your dark circles have worsened recently."

"Xiao Xu, don't think too much, it's not your fault." Seeing Meng Xu walking towards the bedroom without turning his head, He Hui felt a sense of loss, then seemed to remember something again, and yelled at Meng Xu One sound.

"Sister Hui, don't worry, I'm fine." Looking back at He Hui, Meng Xu managed to force a smile.In fact, just now, when the on-site TV broadcast shot was shown behind Duncan walking towards the player tunnel, looking at Duncan's back, at that moment, Meng Xu did have a little regret and self-blame in his heart.Originally, Duncan led a group of rookies, the old, the weak, the sick and disabled. It was already a very remarkable achievement to have a record of 56 wins and reach the Western Conference semifinals. However, Meng Xu felt that Duncan's season should not be like this At the same time, Meng Xu was also thinking that maybe if he was still in the Spurs, this round of the series would have another result.

After the Spurs were eliminated by the Lakers, another group of opponents in the Western Conference semifinals also decided the outcome after five games. The Kings defeated the Mavericks with a score of 5 to 4. The two strongest teams in the Western Conference regular season The teams meet in the final.The series between the Kings and the Mavericks, the duel between Princeton and running and bombing can be said to be pleasing to the eye, and the duel between Nowitzki and Webber is also heaven-shattering.This round of the series can definitely be called a data feast. The average points of the two teams are as high as 1 and 107 respectively. In this round of the series, Dirk Nowitzki, Chris Webber, Michael Finn Lee, Mike Bibby, four players averaged more than 112 points per game, and as many as 20 players averaged more than 10 points per game.

After the schedule of the Western Conference Finals was released, another set of matchups in the Eastern Conference Semifinals is still in full swing. After the previous 5 games, the Nets and Pistons have kept their home courts. If the G6 Pistons can still defend themselves home, then this round of the series will be the first tiebreaker of this year's playoffs. Perhaps it is dissatisfied with the results of the MVP selection in the regular season. In the 7 playoff games after the announcement, the scoring average reached 24.3 points, in addition to 8.7 rebounds and 11.3 assists.

The Pacers are now sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, sweeping the Knicks in the first round and the Celtics in the second round. The Pacers almost encountered no decent resistance and reached the Eastern Conference Finals. In the first round, the Nets and the Raptors played 5 games to decide the winner. The Pistons and the Magic also played 4 games. Therefore, no matter who can advance to the series between the Nets and the Pistons, the two teams will undoubtedly be exhausted. Therefore, when they face the Pacers, their physical strength will be a very big problem.
