Standing pretty old

Chapter 652 The Coming Celestial Derby

Ruan Erniu hugged James affectionately after the game. They were enemies on the court and friends off the court.

The two share the same manager, and their personal relationship is not bad. Although they have to check each other out from time to time, in general, they are still two people who get along happily.

The advancement of technology has allowed players to become cleaner in the game. After many destructive injuries were banned, the relationship between players became more and more harmonious.

This is an irreversible trend!
James said: "Congratulations, Kraft! You performed great, and I wish you the championship!"

"LeBron, you also played very well. I was just lucky to meet better teammates. You will always be the best! How do you plan for the summer?"

"Take a vacation, and then go to Los Angeles for a training camp, and maybe open a training camp. This year, I should still go to your hometown-China."

Ruan Erniu said with a smile: "Then see you in summer!"

In this way, 4:0, the Eagles took 12 consecutive victories in the playoffs and reached the finals like a broken bamboo.

Once, they were the team that was not favored in the new season.

Having just won the championship, he didn't want to add veterans to strengthen the lineup. Instead, he replaced the main power forward with a weak small forward who had never proved himself in the playoffs——John Salmons.

The best sixth man Josh Childress was lost on the bench, and who was added?
Ronald Murray, who only played 42 games last season and averaged less than 9.4 points per game, and the white point guard who has never played in the NBA and is said to be extremely talented-Dragic, Plus a white shooter Steve Novak that the Rockets don't need.

At that time, some media stood up and said that it was difficult for the Eagles to repeat last year's glory, and Atlanta was not a team with championship fortune.

One season on, the Atlanta native, who won the league record with 73 wins, slapped pundits who underestimated themselves with a slap in the face.

Judging from the salary ranking of the whole team this year, the Detroit Pistons ranked tenth in the league with 7143 million yuan, the Orlando Magic ranked No.6967 with 15 million yuan, and the Cavaliers ranked third in the league with 9130 million yuan .

And what about the Atlanta Hawks?
Even counting the waived Speedy Klein Cotton and Stephen Marbury who joined with a basic salary, they still rank No. 6912 in the league with 18 million yuan, ranking No. Lower middle position.

"The championship is not only accumulated by the accumulation of salary, but a good chemical reaction is the key!" Billy Knight, the general manager of the Eagles who is full of ambitions, introduced his successful experience.

But immediately, someone complained wildly about this shit-lucky Hundan.

"Give me a rookie Kraft Nguyen and I can dominate the league."

"Pleading with Eagles owners Bruce Levinson and Michael Geelong to cut Billy Knight, I can do his job for half his salary, because I still have the MVP on a two-year contract."

"Billy Knight's luck is that the general manager of the Trail Blazers and the general manager of the Thunder helped him make a choice. To be honest, the person who should be grateful for Knight's election as the best general manager of the year is Kevin Poole. Chad and Sam Presti."

……

Well, after the round, Billy Knight didn't even let Tuoguan (Trail Blazers management) and Detonator (Thunder management) miss, and these two team managers who missed Kraft Nguyen became the team managers again. The object of ridicule and ridicule.

Especially Pritchard, who chose the professional patient Auden, he gradually has no room to refute. As Ruan Erniu led the Eagles to higher mountains time and time again, Pritchard could only go back and forth again and again. An arrow was shot in the knee, and he was never able to straighten up again.

In fact, Sam Presti, the general manager of the Thunder, is not much better. If it weren't for Durant's success and gradually showing the temperament of tomorrow's superstar, he would also become the kind of idiot in the eyes of fans who needs to be condemned .

Assuming that these two people were given another chance, why would they not choose Kraft Ruan?
After all, he is a man, and he only knows the importance of having Ruan (egg) and choosing Ruan (egg)!
This feeling can be turned into a memory, but now I am confused.

People must look forward, overindulging in past failures will only lead to complete collapse.

In this regard, the Houstonians have done a very good job this season.

If the Atlanta Hawks gave people the biggest surprise in the regular season, then in the playoffs, the Houston Rockets are undoubtedly the super dark horse in the eyes of fans.

No, they are not dark horses, they are Texas cockroaches, and they are the best Xiaoqiang!

The Houstonians, who beat the Blazers all the way and narrowly beat the Lakers in the tiebreaker, finally made it to the Western Conference Finals again since the Olajuwon era.

The game in the Western Conference Finals is one day earlier than the Eastern Conference Finals.

The two sides scored 2:2 in the first four games, and the most critical fifth game will return to Denver Heights again.

According to the usual rhetoric of the Chinese media, this is a battle of Tianwang Mountain!

Whoever wins G5 will get the match point in advance and take the initiative.

Ruan Erniu and his teammates watched the live broadcast of the game on TV and came to the conclusion that the Rockets are really strong, and the Lakers deserved the loss.

Carmelo Anthony was targeted by the Rockets again in G5.

Under the continuous defense of Artest, Battier and even Scola and Landry, he only made 23 of 9 shots in the game. If it weren't for the help of the home whistle, he got 13 free throws and could almost Said that he was locked by the rocket.

The most surprising thing is that Chauncey Billups, the FMVP, is lost.

Facing a huge dislocation advantage like Aaron Brooks, he didn't have enough desire to shoot. He only shot 7 shots and hit 4 goals, including 6 of 3 three-pointers and 1 of 1 free throw. Up to 12 points, 5 assists, 3 rebounds.

But Aaron Brooks made 12 of 6 shots, 4 of 2 three-pointers, and 6 of 5 free throws. He scored 19 points, 5 assists, and 5 rebounds.

While the historical status of the little black bean has risen, experts have also criticized Billup, thinking that he should use more physical confrontation to deal with Brooks in the low post.

These people completely forgot that Yao Ming was the inside line of the Rockets, not Dampier.

Dayao once again easily defeated Hilario, the superman who wears clothes outside, and completely blasted the samba beast, proving once again that the beast style is ineffective against him.

At 84:93, the Rockets won a crucial victory in Denver Heights. Back in Space City, they will use their home court advantage and try their best to eliminate the Nuggets.

Sure enough, the final battle of the Western Conference Finals was not delayed until G7.

Dayao played the most magnificent battle of his career. Under the joint attack of Hilario and Kenyon Martin, he scored 20 points on 16 of 8 shots and 8 of 40 free throws. 12 rebounds, 3 assists, a large double-double data.

JR* Smith is probably the one with the strongest desire to win in the Nuggets team. He made 17 of 10 shots and 9 of 4 three-pointers. Anthony under 24 points.

But compared to the ultra-low shooting percentage and scoring efficiency of social melons, JR is still the one with the highest win-loss value in the team.

4:2, the Houstonians reached the stage of the NBA Finals again after 94 years since the 95-14 season.

For Chinese fans, this is undoubtedly a moment worth celebrating.

Because it won't be long before they will see a real Celestial Derby on the stage of the finals.
