Chapter 331 Advance to the Eastern Conference Finals and fight the Heat again

The Nets eventually lost the semifinals, and the toughness before the start of the series seemed like a big joke.

New Yorkers were delighted to learn that two of the city's teams were particularly good-looking this season, making it to the playoffs and both getting past the first round of the playoffs.They once imagined how lucky and beautiful it would be if the Knicks played against the Nets in the Eastern Conference Finals.

But now, it's all gone in smoke.

The Knicks fell behind by a big score of 1 to 3 in the Heat's wolf-like attack, and the Nets were swept by the 76ers, failing to win a game.

The entire city of the Big Apple has become shaky, and it is about to quit its role in the chaotic battlefield of the playoffs.

so awkward.

In the third season of Tang Wenlong's career, he is already a superstar in the first team of offense and defense, and it is conceivable that he will occupy such an honor for a long time in the future.Bringing the championship to Philadelphia last year, and breaking through to the Eastern Conference Finals this year without making a fuss, has a solid record.

In the west, without Westbrook, the Thunder's combat power has dropped significantly.

In the second round against the Clippers, Paul played well and led the Clippers to win four consecutive games after losing the first game. Paul also reached the Western Conference Finals for the first time in his career.

The Spurs in the second half eliminated the Warriors 4-2.From the beginning to the end of this round of the series, I was not optimistic about the Warriors. After all, the Warriors don't look like a team that can beat the old defensive team.Being able to win two games is already surprising.

However, in this series between the Warriors and the Spurs, they had two overtime games, one for the Warriors and one for the Spurs.In the two games that the Warriors won, Thompson scored 34 points with a superb performance, and the Warriors made a strong team to narrowly beat the Spurs.

The Warriors' defense is not as bad as people expected in the past. It seems that the stage of the playoffs has further inspired the tenacity of this team. They have a unique quality.

In order to wait for the end of the game in the West and the battle between the Heat and the Knicks in the East.

The 76ers rested for a total of six days. It was not until May 5 when the Heat came to Philadelphia that they began their playoff journey to the Eastern Conference Finals.

This is an old opponent and also the strongest stumbling block.

The two teams also met in the Eastern Conference finals last year. Although the 76ers defeated the Heat 4-2, it was very thrilling to win several games. It can only be said that the goddess of victory and the goddess of luck quietly favored them at the most critical time 76ers only.

When the dust has not yet risen, the two sides are already at war.

Heat fans are not convinced. Last year, if the Heat had a slight advantage on several key shots, or if Tang Wenlong didn't have a superb performance in the fourth game, maybe the Heat would be the one to stand in the finals.And Miami fans have 1 reasons to believe that once they enter the finals, [-]% of the trophy will be their own team.

Everything is thanks to Philadelphia, and the hatred has grown.

The relationship between professional players is not as bad as imagined.During this year's All-Star Game in Houston, Tang Wenlong was hooked up by Anthony to go shopping with Little Emperor and Flash.Counting off the court, James and Wade are still very righteous and straightforward people.

Facing the 76ers, Heat coach Spoelstra couldn't sleep or sleep.

In the previous six games with the Knicks, Anthony's bug-like single-handedness made the Heat suffer.Fortunately, the overall strength of the Knicks team is a bit weaker. In addition, Anthony is at the power forward position, which is always a loophole on the defensive end. The Heat were able to grasp a slight advantage in the offensive battle.

The point is, Wade has an injury this year.

When Wade finished playing the Knicks, the team doctor had already issued a red light warning.His knees were plagued by injuries, and he was no longer allowed to make high-intensity movements and confrontations.He has always gritted his teeth and persisted, his combat power is less than [-]% of his peak period, and the Heat's overall standing power is not as strong as last year.

Thinking of playing against the 76ers with the strongest offense in the league, as a head coach, I am really worried. The only tactic I can think of is-hand the ball to LeBron.

Collins' arrangement is more targeted, "focusing on low-post offense inside."

After the Heat lost to the 76ers last year, they searched all over the world for inside meat shields. As a result, they couldn't find a high-quality inside line. They claimed to be the strongest outside combination in the league, but something went wrong.

The house leak happens to be raining overnight, and this year Tang Wenlong is a sharp knife in outside offense. He is known as a scoring expert. Is it really necessary for LeBron to defend Tang Wenlong?
Spoelstra shuddered. He was almost 100% sure that the 76ers would definitely use Iguodala to consume James. If the defensive end still let James fight Tang Wenlong desperately, it would probably be the same as Iron Man James, will not be able to bear it?

Difficult, too difficult.

On the evening of the 23rd, Philadelphia was brightly lit.

This city with a long history has ushered in the Eastern Conference finals. The area centered on the Wachovia Center Arena has become a sea of ​​joy for fans. A large number of fans gather here, holding posters and painting their faces. , wearing a 76ers jersey, waiting for the start of the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals.

When Tang Wenlong walked out of the player tunnel, he received a wave of welcome from the audience.

This game was not only reported by many media in the United States, but also broadcast live in various countries around the world, especially the domestic TV station, which directly sent old partners like Zhang Weiping and Yu Jia to the Wachovia Center On-site interpretation of the museum.

"The 76ers have entered the playoffs with great morale, and have not lost a game so far." Zhang Weiping opened his mouth to sing praises for the 76ers, expressing his firm position at once.

There is nothing to say about this. A Chinese player like Tang Wenlong, every step he took in Laomei, the imprint left, is to win glory for the country.

Yu Jia didn't think there was anything wrong, and said in his iconic commentary voice: "The Heat have not completely solved the inside problem in the past year. The "Birdman" Anderson they recruited became a substitute on the bench. Rescue inside, but it still looks stretched."

"That's right, the 76ers have a balanced offense and defense. Tang Wenlong and Gasol Jr. are the stars of the league's best team. The 76ers had a few days more rest than the Heat before, and this game was held at Philadelphia's home court. The right time, place and people are all on the side of the 76ers, and I think if there is no accident, the 76ers can still win this game."

The two talked freely on the sidelines, and expressed some of their own opinions on some data analysis before the game. In summary, there is actually only one, and the 76ers should win.
