Chapter 330 Leading
The Nets collapsed in Philadelphia, and the evaluations given by the outside world are mostly expected and reasonable.

After all, last season or the previous few seasons, the Nets were just a small team, a regular in the lottery. Although they rushed to the top eight in the Western Conference this season, they still don't look like a strong team.

As for the 76ers, they are the defending champions, a super strong team with strong strength and a well-organized lineup.

Just like the first game between the New York Knicks and the Miami Heat, the Knicks, which was also an away game, also mostly lost to the Heat.There are stars, and the accumulation of talents is enough, but the team does not seem to be a whole, and it lacks the taste of twisting together.

At the same time, the 13 NBA lottery draws are all released.

The Magic with the worst record has a [-]/[-] chance of winning the No. [-] pick, followed by Bobcats, Cavaliers, Suns and other notoriously weak teams in the league.

But the final result was surprising. Since winning the No. 11 lottery in [-], the Cavaliers won the No. [-] lottery again.Followed by the Magic, Wizards, Bobcats and Suns.

It’s just that this year is recognized as a small year in the draft. The immediate combat power and talent potential of the rookies is obviously not as good as in 12. The Cavaliers are naturally celebrating when they get the No. brains.They thought, it would be best to choose a super fighter like James, then it would be perfect, and it would be done in one step.

Then the league announced the best defensive team of the year.

Tang Wenlong was selected into the first team of the best defense. This season, he has increased his defense and his defensive data has become very beautiful. Many coaches have left a deep impression on him. He was selected by the coaches as the best in the 2012-13 season One of the defensive five is also reasonable.

The remaining four are Chris Paul, Tony Allen, Serge Ibaka and Tyson Chandler.

The one who was squeezed out by Tang Wenlong was James, who belonged to the first team all the year round, and the little emperor was placed in the defensive second team. This was the first time since [-].In the second team, there are Tang Wenlong's teammates Gasol Jr., Joakim Noah, Paul George and Tim Duncan.

The best team selected by another TV commentator and reporter relies more on the player's popularity and external reputation than the selection of the best defensive team.Many players who are not seen by the media, even if they play luxurious statistics and have a good record, are often selectively forgotten.

For example, Deron a few years ago had the same number of achievements as Paul, but his honors were ridiculously small.

This year's Nets record came up, but it was still selectively forgotten. Not only was Deron not selected for any lineup, even Hayward, Lopez and others did not have any honors.

Tang Wenlong entered the All-NBA First Team very steadily. In addition, there was the popular Kobe on the back line, followed by LeBron and Durant, and the rejuvenated Tim Duncan at the center position.

In the best second team, there are Paul, Westbrook, Anthony, Griffin and Gasol Jr.

Third Team: Harden, Wade, Paul George, David Lee and Dwight Howard.

Curry of the Golden State Warriors averaged 23+7 top point guard data per game, and he didn't even make it to the third team. Curry was ignored in the selection of the All-Star Game, and Curry was also ignored in the final selection at the end of the season.

Instead, David Lee is considered a key figure in the Warriors' rise.

Only Tang Wenlong, who has played against the Warriors on the court, can understand who the real core of the Warriors is. Although David Lee is also a very good player, he is far from the level of Curry's lethality to a team. , I remember that in a game in February or March, Curry scored 11 three-pointers and scored a career-high 54 points, detonating the NBA.And this, David - Lee is impossible to do.

"What a cheating selection." Iguodala was also a little annoyed. He failed to be selected for any offensive and defensive lineups this season, and his honor is mediocre.

On May 5, the Nets played against the 9ers in G76.

The Nets improved their offense in this game. Deron reduced his shots and gave Lopez more low-post attacks.Although the effect was still not good, it accidentally caused a kill. The insider Gasol was troubled by fouls and almost didn't play much in the first half.The Nets also tied the score at 51 before halftime.

But in the second half, the Nets were obviously still out of strength. They made mistakes when passing the ball a few times, and the 76ers seized the opportunity to hit a wave of counterattacks. The 76ers led 82 to 77 and entered the fourth quarter.

In Hayward's usual phrase, it's at least not 20 shots.

This wave of the Nets played well, several tactical executions were in place, and the 76ers did not have a particularly good offensive momentum to support them, and they could not beat the Nets to death in one go.

It was not until the last 3 minutes of the fourth quarter that the Nets finally lost their chance to win the game by relying on their lead in details.

In the end, in the G2 game, the 76ers beat the Nets 110 to 101 at home.

The Nets suffered a two-game losing streak in the away game, and they were at an absolute disadvantage in the series. How to decipher the connection between Tang Wenlong and the 76ers' many shooters is a very difficult proposition.In the second game, Tang Wenlong sent out another 9 assists, and most of them were breakthrough goals, which put a lot of pressure on the Nets' perimeter defense.

Their offense and defense are very layered.

The G3 game moved to the home court of the Nets in Brooklyn.

This is New York. The Eastern Conference semifinals were held in this city, which instantly raised the enthusiasm for sports in the whole city. In the city made of steel, fans wearing Nets and Knicks jerseys can be seen everywhere.

Although the two teams are currently 0 to 2 behind the enemy, but now there are two home games, right?
The advantage of the home court is conceivable. There are no underdogs in the NBA. If they can get help from the referee whistle and the momentum of the home fans, the improvement in strength will not be a little bit or two.

The G3 battle has become the battle of hope for the people of New York, similar to the final battle. If they still lose to the 76ers, it is equal to a direct GG.

Home court bonus, strength and status bonus, the Nets played the best start since the series - 14 to 3!

The feeling of all the 76ers was submerged in the super-decibel sound of the New York fans. All kinds of strikes in the cold, after Collins called a timeout, were of no use.

At the end of the first quarter, the Nets led the 28ers by 17 points 76 to 11.

This is a very rare scene. The 76ers have not been in such a mess this season, including the regular season.The consequence of this situation is that Tang Wenlong directly reduced the rest time, and returned to the game after a 2-minute break in the second quarter.

The penalty of the game is biased towards the Nets. Whenever the 76ers start, there will always be various situations.

Chasing the score gap was very hard. Tang Wenlong gritted his teeth, shot from inside and outside, and kept sending shells to his teammates. The 76ers managed to catch the score within 10 points before halftime.

Until the last quarter, the Nets' physical strength declined, and the 76ers adopted a big and four small lineup.

The referee didn't dare to make it too obvious at such a particularly critical moment. The 76ers seized a wave of defensive opportunities and counterattacked. After Tang Wenlongbiao scored a three-pointer, he made two mid-range shots and scored 7 points in a row, breaking the score. caught up.

It is completely a display of personal ability. When his teammates are not feeling good, he stands up alone and carries the banner of the team's offense.

The orange basketball is always in the hands of Tang Wenlong. He dribbles under the crotch, dribbles behind his back, turns and steps back and shoots.

Three minutes before the end of the 48th minute, Tang Wenlong caused Hayward's fourth foul of the game, went to the free throw line and made two free throws.

This is his 34th point in the field, and the 76ers finally tied the Nets for the first time since the opening.

The mentality of the two teams has undergone a fundamental change. After the 76ers replaced Ray Allen, Iguodala and other experienced players, their court control was significantly stronger.

At 1 minute and 07 seconds, Tang Wenlong gave Iguodala the ball, and Iguodala continued to transfer the ball to the bottom corner Ray Allen, hitting a crucial three-pointer worth a lot of money.

The Nets players were on the verge of ice, leading all night, but were overtaken by their opponents at the last moment.

Since then, the Nets failed to continue their scoring momentum at the beginning of the game, and fell into the defensive pressure of the 76ers at the critical moment. Hayward, Joe Johnson and others missed shots one after another.

The 76ers reversed and won the G101 game 97 to 3, basically announcing their promotion to the Eastern Conference Finals.
