Chapter 118 TNT Discussion

TNT's big discussion program has received a lot of praise from viewers since the last broadcast, so the next day, after the fourth game between the Spurs and the Thunder officially ended, TNT organized a big discussion program again, with the previous The guests who participated in the show were almost the same, and Reggie Miller, Isaiah Thomas and Scottie Pippen all participated in the discussion again, but this time, TNT also invited a heavyweight guest-ha Kim Olajuwon.

At the beginning of the show, Kenny Smith was still the first to speak as the host, "So, the finals of the two divisions have been played for 4 games, and now the Pacers have won the match point beyond most people's expectations. , while the two teams in the West won by a large margin at their own home courts. Now, everyone here, let’s talk about your views on this year’s playoffs and your predictions for the finals?”

The old fan of Ye Xuan, Barkley, turned on the bragging mode first, "Then let me talk about the Eastern Conference finals first. We can all see that since Ye Xuan's cooperation with the Pacers' starting lineup has become more and more After getting more proficient, the starting strength of the Pacers has clearly surpassed other teams, even facing the Big Three's Heat team, they still don't fall behind."

After a pause, Barkley continued to analyze "And, George Hill and Lance Stephenson, I think both of them have the strength to start on other teams, and the Pacers will use the two of them. One is on the bench, and then one of Ye Xuan or Paojiao will lead the bench lineup together, so the Pacers' bench strength is also very strong."

"The last point, I don't know if you have noticed that Solomon Hill, from a marginal player at the beginning of the season, has gradually grown into an indispensable defensive pioneer on the bench. It is said that he learned his shooting skills from Ye Xuan, When such a player grows up in the future, maybe he can bring different surprises to the Pacers."

O'Neal on the side began to analyze the situation in the West, "Well Jazz, I know you must support the Pacers, and I don't want to refute you, because the Pacers have a great chance of winning now. Then I will say something Let’s talk about the finals of the Western Conference. Judging from the current situation in the Western Conference, the Spurs should be better in terms of strength, but the uncertainty of the Thunder is too great. Durant and Westbrook both feel good. At that time, I felt that no team in the league could stop them, but the overall strength of the Spurs is indeed higher than that of the Thunder. If Kawhi Leonard can successfully limit Durant's performance, the Spurs can easily win. "

Scottie Pippen didn't know whether it was because of Ye Xuan's displeasure or something, and he aimed at Ye Xuan as soon as he opened his mouth, "In my opinion, although the Pacers won the final victory by chance in the fourth game, you guys You should also be able to see the reason for this. Because of the rumors on the Internet, the referee's scale in this game is very tight, almost like a body hair whistle, and the Pacers relied on this to lead by two in the first half. The score is in single digits, and Ye Xuan, an unstable factor, is also a major hidden danger for the Pacers, because you don't know when he will break out, and you don't know when he will suddenly break out like in the third quarter of this game. Shorted."

"But he killed his opponent in the end." Reggie Miller on the side was dissatisfied after hearing this, and quickly spoke for his younger generation. "Although he made some mistakes in the third quarter, he not only recovered the score for the team after he played in the fourth quarter, but also made a fatal three-pointer in overtime. I am more willing to believe Ye Xuan Just took a nap in the third quarter because we don't see him play like that."

Olajuwon also spoke for Ye Xuan, "I think Ye Xuan's skills are the most comprehensive among these offensive point guards. He can make sudden shots, pass weird passes, and he is also very good defensively. His low-post skills are already top-notch for a backcourt player. I think Ye Xuan is not only the X factor of the Pacers. When he grows up in the future, he can even become the cornerstone player of the Pacers. If the Jazz wants to build a dynasty, Ye is definitely an indispensable member."

Smiling Assassin Thomas also felt that Ye Xuan was a player with absolute potential, so he also spoke for Ye Xuan, "In the current league, we see more offensive basketball, and the role of the center is gradually weakened. At this time, An all-around player like Ye Xuan is very suitable for the current rhythm. Not only can he play from the first position to the third position, but his defensive ability also allows him to not be at a disadvantage in one-on-one defense. Thinking about Kobe back then, I think if Ye Xuan appeared on the shooting guard and there were no other star players on the team, Ye Xuan would most likely grow into another Kobe Bryant."

Seeing that everyone present was speaking for Ye Xuan, Pippen couldn't help snorting coldly, "I still reserve my own opinion. You all only saw his performance on the field. You think he can grow up and be able to serve Ye Xuan." The Jazz brought the championship. But I thought more about it"

"You guys think about when you're playing, if you're the best player on the team, but you're not the highest player on the team, it's probably fine the first year, but after that, Shaq, I think it's You know this kind of thing best, what I want to say is, even if Ye Xuan can grow up, but establish a dynasty? With all due respect, it’s just a dream at this time.”

O'Neal also looked helpless when he heard Pippen's roll call, "Brother, don't always expose my scars. The Lakers did lose the championship because of some problems in the team, but from the character of Ye Xuan I know , He will not directly force the palace like Kobe, tear his face, he is Chinese, they always show an admirable restraint and reservation. So even if the Pacers cannot keep Ye Xuan in the end, they will not Let everyone's relationship become disharmonious."

Afterwards, a few people chatted about the situation in the West. Everyone basically felt that the Spurs had a better chance of winning. After all, the Spurs have maintained this lineup for about 10 years. Although the role players have changed, the main frame has always been the same. It is built around the GDP troika, which also makes the Spurs more stable.

The Thunder team seemed a little unstable, especially in the second game in the Western Conference, they only scored 77 points in the game, which also let everyone see their weakness, that is, the Thunder's double-young team was restrained. From then on, the Thunder suddenly became unable to play, and their offense stagnated.
