Basketball: starting from the nerve knife

Chapter 238 – New Mission, Playoffs Begin, Advance to the Second Round!

“Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the badge that comes with the template: Human Weapons (Diamonds)!” ”

？？？

And also?

This is the fourth badge!

Li Wan quickly clicked on the introduction of the “Eleventhlon” badge:

“Human Weapon: As a comprehensive eleven offensive all-round king of offensive means, the host’s ability to read defense on the offensive end is increased by 20%! ”

“Ding, it has been detected that the host’s back basket singles ability is not up to standard and cannot be activated, please increase your back playing ability to 70 points as soon as possible!” ”

Nima!

Li Wan was in pain.

Look at the attack panel:

Field of view: 85 (90); Possession: 85 (90); Passing: 80 (85); CIC: 91(95); Three points: 75 (85); Breakout: 80 (88); Layups: 80 (86); Back: 30 (85); Dunks: 80 (88); Dunk in place: 35 (50); Offensive card slot: 61 (80); Air cut: 80 (88); Run without the ball: 80 (85);

Belch……

This 30-point back ability is indeed a little too eye-catching.

Train!

Must practice!

Even for the attributes of this “Human Weapon” badge, Li Wan must practice.

Speaking of which, Leonard is also the least famous among the “human weapons”.

Because when it comes to Leonard, the first reaction is his defense, and the second reaction is his “mid-range jumper in the frame”.

But in fact, he has eleven offensive abilities in the NBA, and even his back, mid-range and catch-and-shoot have reached the level of mastery.

He later had a very scary statistic: since the 15-16 season, each season has 4-6 offensive rounds accounting for more than 10% or about 10%, 7-9 offensive rounds accounting for more than 4%, and no matter which offensive method, efficiency can be guaranteed.

This is also why when it comes to Leonard, the general view is that his offensive ability is better than DeRozan.

The little girl who can only make one or two moves will definitely bring you a different experience from the aunt who is good at eighteen martial arts!

Compared to the former, the latter will definitely make you feel more defenseless!

How can she play tricks there?

But in fact, if you really look at the data of their career, you will find that Leonard averaged 27.1 points per game and shot 47.1% from the field in the highest season of his career!

DeRozan averaged the highest scoring season per game, averaging 27.9 points per game and shooting 50.4 from the field!

If you don’t count his rookie season as a role player, Leonard’s highest shooting percentage was 51.2%, scoring 24.8 points, and DeRozan was 53.1%, averaging 22.1 points per game!

In the regular season alone, whether it is scoring or scoring efficiency, the two are actually similar.

It was a single scoring method, as well as a fragile psychology, that made DeRozan eventually become a “regular season star”. And Leonard, who has a variety of means, makes it impossible for others to pay attention to his mid-range shots when defending him.

As for watching the difficulty of the shot is higher, don’t think about it, it’s purely the same as my department and the “11 knife man”, the footsteps are still weak explosive, and they can’t get rid of it cleanly.

It’s just that historic-level static talent allows him to shoot steadily in that environment.

Strength, static talent is what makes him really stronger than DeRozan!

If only he had DeRozan’s athletic flair…

From the overall data on the offensive end, although it has not changed much, Li Wan’s ball control ability has reached 90 points after getting Leonard’s template.

In this way, Li Wan has two offensive abilities with a potential of 90 points.

Of course, the biggest change is definitely Li Wan’s dynamic talent, the three strengths, explosive power, physical strength and bounce have reached more than 90 points.

When these abilities are realized, it is no exaggeration to say that Li Wan will have the top physical talent in history.

However, this is also quite normal, Leonard’s static talent combined with the dynamic talent of DeRozan and Jr-Smith, if this is not a historical talent, then is there any reason?

His gaze continued to move down, and Li Wan looked at the template upgrade task again.

S level is not the end, you can continue to upgrade next…

This is the reason why Li Wan is content with this template.

Like DeRozan’s template upgrade task, it is an honorary achievement of a career.

Li Wan needs to equalize these honorary achievements.

In terms of data, there is no need to look at it, most of them already show “completed”.

Leonard is indeed close in terms of statistics, with a maximum score of 45 points, which is the level of Li Wan’s rookie season.

In terms of rebounds and assists, he has also surpassed.

Now the task of 7 steals and one “steal king of the season” in a single game is not completed…

Li Wan currently has a maximum number of steals in a single game of 6 times, completed two or three times, and now the potential of defensive ability has improved so much, and there is the badge of “Death Entanglement”, he believes that this task will not be too much of a problem when completed!

“Season steal king” for Li Wan, has always been in the stage that can be touched, but has not been able to get, the previous two seasons Li Wan averaged about 2 steals per game, ranking between the third ~ fifth in the league.

Then there’s the honor aspect.

Compared to DeRozan, Leonard’s honor is much more gorgeous.

But……

Two championships and two finals MVPs, complete!

One All-Star MVP trophy, done!

Five All-Stars, done!

……

There are still 3 tasks left uncompleted.

The first is the 5-time best lineup.

At present, Li Wan has scored 4 times, and this season he has scored again, and the task has been completed.

It’s a matter of time…

Li Wan this season, the regular season MVP list is the first place, it is impossible not to enter the best team!

Then came the best defensive team 7 times.

This should also be a matter of time, Li Wan has won the “Best Defensive Team” 3 times, if he enters this year, it will be 4 times, and there are still 3 times short.

Finally, in Li Wan’s view, the most difficult task:

2 times “Best Defensive Player Award”!

The good news is…

The “Best Defensive Player Award” for the next two years is Mark Gasol and Joaquin Noah…

Compared to Howard and Big Ben, the all-time “best defensive player”, these two are worse!

The pressure to compete is not so great!

In short, if it goes well, after 3 years, Li Wan will be able to have the next template.

That is, in the summer of 15, the template evolved into SS class!

15 years…

It just so happened that I met “Cosmic Brave”…

It really wasn’t a time when you could win by defending alone!

……

Closing the system panel, Li Wan walked out of the shower room.

Frankly speaking, Li Wan was not very satisfied with the shipment of the system this time, but if he thought about it, if it was SSR every time, then his temper would be too European.

And it’s so bad…

Greatly strengthened the defensive end…

There is an increase, and the task of these four years has not been done in vain!

As the season came to an end, the seats in the East and West of the league also had their final result.

The first to eighth eastern regions are:

New York Knicks;

Chicago Bulls;

Miami heat;

New Jersey Nets;

Orlando Magic;

Indiana Pacers;

Philadelphia 76ers;

Atlanta Hawks;

According to this position, the New York Knicks will face the Atlanta Hawks, who have just traded the “Eagle King” in the first round.

The second Bulls opponent is the Philadelphia 76ers;

The third Heat meets the Pacers;

The fourth New Jersey Nets face the Orlando Magic;

The first to eighth in the west are:

San Antonio Spurs;

Oklahoma City Thunder;

Los Angeles Clippers;

Los Angeles Lakers;

Memphis Grizzlies;

Dallas Mavericks;

Portland Trail Blazers;

Utah Jazz;

This year’s Western Conference playoffs are divided into four group matches: Spurs vs Jazz; Thunder vs Trail Blazers; Clippers vs Mavericks; Lakers vs Grizzlies.

Among these eight sets of duels, there are only two sets that make the outside world feel suspenseful:

A duel between the fourth and fifth sides of the two sides.

That is, the Eastern Nets vs Magic, and the Western Lakers vs Grizzlies.

The momentum of the Magic’s reorganization is really scary, and they have won 24 of the 32 games after the All-Star Game, losing only 8, a win rate of 75%!

At this winning rate, if they play 82 games, then they will get 62 wins…

How scary is this record…

This year, the New York Knicks, the first place in the East, have 63 wins, while the Bulls, who are second in the East, have 61 wins!

Such a state is that the outside world is optimistic that the Magic will beat the higher-ranked Nets 4-2 or 4-3 after 6 or 7 games.

As for the matchup between the Lakers and the Grizzlies, what makes the outside world feel suspenseful is:

The Lakers had problems such as aging lineups in the second half of the season, and their status fluctuated greatly, including Kobe’s unstable state and gradually increased the number of games.

Although Kobe has always been eager to prove himself, his 43% shooting percentage per game can’t fool anyone…

This is the season in which Kobe Bryant has the lowest shooting percentage per game since the 97~98 season.

And that season was the second season of Kobe’s career.

The voice of “Kobe is old” is getting louder and louder, so much so that this Kobe Bryant’s team has been very questioned.

Along with the East-West rankings, there are also the “data kings” of the major data lists.

Li Wan once again counterattacked Kevin Durant, with an average of 31.8 points per game, became the “scoring king” this season, and ended the “scoring list” for 4 years, becoming another player to win the “scoring king” since Kobe.

It is worth mentioning that not counting those “ancient gods” of the 70s, Li Wan is the player with the lowest draft pick among the players who won the “scoring king” in a row.

At the same time, Li Wan also won this season’s “assist king” with an average of 13.4 assists per game.

It also allowed him to unlock another dusty NBA record.

He became only another player since Knight Archibald to win the “scoring king” and “assist king” in the same season.

The “rebounding king” belongs to Dwight Howard, who averaged 14.5 rebounds this season, and Love, who opened up second, averaged 1.2 rebounds per game.

In terms of this rebounding ability, you say…

How could Kobe not let him grab a rebound!

“Blocks King” belongs to the “talented” Ibaka, averaging 3.8 blocks per game, which also refreshes the block list in recent years; “Steal King” belongs to Chris Paul, who averages 2.5 steals per game.

In addition to averaging 31.8 points and 13.4 assists per game, Li Wan has 9.5 rebounds, 2.1 steals and 1.6 blocks this season.

The three shooting percentages are: 52.4% per game, 42.3% per game and 88.2% per game.

The free throw percentage is 1.8% worse, otherwise Li Wan will enter the “180 club” again, but the 88.2% shooting percentage is already high, and this season’s free throw percentage list, Li Wan ranks third, behind Crawford and Nowitzki.

……

In the afternoon of the same day, the league announced the “Rookie of the Season” for the 11~12 season.

Carey Irving won the award with a whopping 90% of the vote.

Compared with previous years, this year’s rookie is particularly depressed, Irving has already obtained the limit of the same rookie with a slight shot, it is worth saying that when he won the award, Irving uploaded the “Best Rookie” trophy and posted a sentence at the same time: Thank you Lord.

This statement did not attract much attention.

The fact that Owen is religious has long been exposed by the media.

In the “free” land of the United States, religious beliefs are also popular, and a plaque was smashed on the road, hitting 10 people, there were at least 9 “believers” in it, and one was a “religious leader”…

But in Li Wan’s view, this is a sign of Owen’s evolution towards “Ou Shenxian”.

That afternoon, the New York Knicks entered the playoff preparation stage.

As a championship-only team, the New York Knicks are not much different from usual at this stage, and the only change may be a change in attitude.

The “nightclub café” led by Artest and Odom took the initiative to hand over their VIP membership cards for many nightclubs in New York. He expressed his importance to the playoffs with practical actions.

Li Wan talked to D’Antoni and Mike Brown.

After the regular season, the New York Knicks are now in a situation where the offensive and defensive ends are the top in the league, but both sides are still a little short of the extreme.

In fact, this difference is critical.

The key moment when the bayonet is red is the extreme of the offensive or defensive end.

You can defend your opponent, or you can score your opponent’s basket!

Of course, Li Wan hopes that the extreme that the team can do is the extreme of the offensive end.

The defensive end is significantly more passive than the offensive end.

Li Wan is not a passive person, he likes to take the initiative.

But now, he had no choice…

Only the defensive end can be used as a killing move…

When D’Antoni heard Li Wan’s suggestion, his first reaction was:

Li Wan doesn’t love me anymore!

Otherwise, why talk only about the defensive end, but not the offensive side?

Is it that I am not doing well enough?

D’Antoni didn’t have the heart to discuss, and he was thinking about whether he usually did something or not.

Li Wan did not think much about D’Antonis’s silence.

In his cognition…

D’Antoni is a runner, he knows how to defend with a hammer.

On April 18, as in previous years, the NBA kicked off the playoffs on this day.

The four matchups on the first day were: Bulls vs Philadelphia 76ers, Nets vs Magic, Thunder vs. Trail Blazers, Lakers vs. Grizzlies.

The end result.

The Bulls were 99-88 and comfortably defeated the Philadelphia 76ers.

Originally, this season, the Philadelphia 76ers and Bulls game was actually the eighth in the East, and the 76ers also completed the “Black Eight Miracle” in this series.

But the gold content of this “Black Eight Miracle” should be the most watery in NBA history, after all, Derek Rose and Hamilton were injured.

However, that was the original.

This time the Bulls did not have the first place in the East.

But……

Neither Derek Ross nor Hamilton were injured…

Needless to say, it is the “butterfly effect” brought by Li Wan:

This season is different from the original, the league has not stopped, the schedule has not shrunk, and there is no “back-to-back” devilish schedule in the format…

That gave Derek Ross and Hamilton plenty of time to rest.

In addition, Kevin Garnett’s injury in the playoffs seems to have changed Thibodeau’s coaching style and is no longer as extreme as he was.

For the use of Ross, he is no longer brainless “dead*”, the game situation has entered “garbage time”, and he will not hesitate when it is time to replace Ross.

In this way, the Philadelphia 76ers will not have the possibility of stealing chickens.

They are also quite miserable, they snatched Xiaosi the year before last, and they used a season last year, and they won’t work this season…

Speaking of most of the players who have walked out of the Suns in recent years, this is the case, Shaq O’Neal rejuvenated his career when he was with the Suns, but he left the Suns to go to the Cavaliers immediately; The original Steve Nash was the same, who was fine with the Suns, went to the Lakers, and his back injury immediately worsened…

The Suns, this “Divine Doctor Team” really is…

When Li Wan thought back to this incident, he always felt that he should join the Suns at the end of his career to extend his career life.

The Thunder also easily beat the Trail Blazers.

This game proves that in the current NBA, it really can’t be without the outside.

The combination of Aldridge and Oden suppressed the opposite side of Ibaka plus Perkins, but the outside lost too much, losing by nearly 25 points.

In the end, the Thunder also defeated the Trail Blazers 108-90, 18 points.

A minute before the end of the game, the sideline camera was given to Roy several times. The expressions of Portland fans were complicated by this:

How nice it would be if Roy wasn’t hurt…

Compared with these two games, the Lakers vs the Grizzlies this game is much more anxious.

First of all, the Lakers can’t stop Zach Randolph from turning over the river on the inside.

Whether it’s Pau Gasol or Bynum, there are only four words to him:

Tired of not loving!

Failure to prevent is one problem, and failure to attack is another.

Paul Gasol is struggling when he meets Mark Gasol, who is gradually at his peak, and Bynum in this time and space has long known what it is to play with the ball under the basket because of a series of previous blows.

Overall, Paul Gasol can barely maintain the scoring threat under the basket thanks to Pau Gasol’s momentary hook hand…

And that’s not all the problems the Lakers have encountered.

Kobe Bryant ran into Tony Allen, and also seemed to be struggling, plus he was not in good shape this season, and there was an embarrassing situation of only getting 2 points in a single quarter…

The Lakers’ only advantage is DeLong Williams, No. 1.

Mike Conley is limited by his height and can’t stop this guy’s strong ball handling.

Delong Williams has the joy of playing Paul…

But it’s different, Mike Conley has been learning “crotch dribbling breakthrough” with “Bug” Tim Hardaway for two years, and this season has finally honed this trick to the level of mastery.

Several times he gave his own response to Delong.

The score of this match was frozen at 90-85.

It was the Grizzlies who scored 90 points, and the Lakers who scored 85 points…

Yes, the Grizzlies took the lead in the first win of the series.

One by one, outside experts showed an expression of “sure enough”.

Popovich couldn’t help but shiver when he heard that the Grizzlies had won the first game of the series against the Lakers. Last season’s “Black Eight Shadows” are still haunting him at this moment.

Originally, when he saw the Grizzlies play the Lakers in the first round, he was still relieved…

What a fart!

These two teams, no matter who they met in the second round, he found it quite difficult to play!

Of course, if he has to choose a team, now he would rather choose the Lakers than the Grizzlies, what is the “black and white double bears”!

Can the NBA issue a notice banning large bears from the playoffs?

As a result, afraid of what will come, this Grizzlies actually won the first game of the series…

This Nima!

To say that the Lakers lost to the Grizzlies, some bricks expected …

Then the game between the Nets and the Magic is a little unexpected for these bricks…

The eventual winner, they’re right, is indeed the Magic team that is more likely to make the cut.

The problem, though, was that the Magic won too easily.

He scored 15 points in the first half, and ran for 20 points in the third quarter. In the end, the Magic defeated the Nets 110-90,20 points.

20 points to win…

It’s like some brick houses shouting that day that “house prices are going to fall”, and as a result, house prices did fall, but what they didn’t expect was:

House prices have fallen, and no one is buying a house!

The unilateral killing of the magic team has made the outside world’s combat effectiveness of this magic team rise again.

But in the opinion of Paul Pierce…

The Magic team is just like that, mainly in the Nets, there is a traitor!

Why does this Chris Paul of Nima always want to rely on him to lead the team and chase the point difference?

This damn ball is really not passed out!

Li Wan also watched this game, and he was really not surprised by Chris Paul’s handling at key moments.

Even when he saw Paul Pierce’s flushed face, he wanted to pat him on the shoulder and say something to him:

That’s where it goes!

Later, in the Western Conference finals, a game in the series between the Warriors and the Rockets, Harden gradually chased back the point difference by fighting singles, Chris Paul looked at this situation, no, how can James Harden be in the limelight alone? At that time, he pulled the team to fight the Warriors, and the result was that the point difference was sent back intact.

Transferring to the Suns and playing the only Finals game of his career, Booker’s eyes were full of tears.

“Cangluo”‘s obsession with victory is undoubted, but in his eyes, victory must be called victory only if he takes the lead in solving the problem …

Why isn’t this a PUA for teammates?

So, some players can’t win the championship, it’s really not a matter of strength…

Howard, who won the game quickly, was happy after the game, but when the reporter mentioned Li Wan, his expression unconsciously became serious: “We are still on our way!” ”

Before defeating Li Wan, any victory is not a victory…

On April 19, four other groups of duels began.

The league announced the “Best Sixth Man Award” for the season.

Jamal Crawford has once again received this award.

That night, he also proved his strength as the “first man on the bench in the league” in the New York Knicks and Hawks “garbage time”.

Well……

“Garbage time”!

Facing the Hawks who lost the “Eagle King”, the Knicks did not exert their strength, and the Eagles were “boiled” to death.

120-90, the Knicks beat the Hawks by 30 points.

It’s not a game yet…

In the next three games of the series, the New York Knicks easily defeated the Hawks by 25~30 points each. The loss was so miserable that even the Atlanta media couldn’t help but post an article asking:

“What the hell are we doing wrong? ”

Speaking of which, this is also the pot of the east …

After Joe Johnson was traded, the Hawks lost one defeat after another late in the All-Star Weekend.

The final wins were only 30.

This is definitely not going to make the playoffs in previous years.

But the “era of giants”, coupled with the general environment in the East, led to this team whose strength could not reach the playoff level at all, and finally ranked eighth in the East.

Suffered a brutal massacre!

But in Barkley’s view, the Hawks really have to thank Levan for his mercy with the Knicks: “If the Knicks wanted to embarrass Atlanta, they wouldn’t have won by only 30 points per game…”

And really…

What about special angles!

The New York Times immediately reported Barkley’s remarks, yes, yes, can speak, you can say more, they never thought Barkley spoke so well!

April 24.

Atlanta.

Home of the Eagles.

When the piercing beep sounds.

The score was fixed at 132-98, and the Knicks again won by 34 points.

But the Hawks players on the court and the Atlanta fans in the audience had no frustration on their faces, all relief…

4-0！

Having lost this game, they finally don’t have to continue to play playoffs with the New York Knicks!

Being abused like this shows how manic the New York Knicks are in this series.

Li Wan averaged 35.5 points, 10.5 rebounds and 14.5 assists per game in 4 games, in addition to 1.8 steals and 1.4 blocks, shooting 55.5% from the field, 45% from three-point range and 88.9% from the free throw line!

In a simple sentence:

Kill crazy!

And he wasn’t the only one who killed the entire Knicks.

Ray Allen averaged 4 three-pointers per game in this series, scoring 16.5 points per game, and it feels like going back 11 years; Lewis also returned to his best tactical two years in this series, averaging 17 points per game, including 50% three-point shooting in two games!

When he shot from outside the three-point line in this series, the biggest feeling he gave fans was two words:

Pregnant!

That’s it!

Even Artest averaged 1.5 three-pointers per game, which shows how ferocious the New York Knicks were in the first round of the playoffs…

ESPN said bluntly: “After a season of running-in, the Knicks officially began to show their offensive firepower!” ”

“Bleachers”: “The playoffs are the beginning, the defending champion’s offensive end, make the league fearful!” ”

The New York Times even said:

“Defending champions, New York is ready! ”

This year, though, the New York Knicks aren’t the first team to emerge from the playoffs.

The Thunder, who started the series a day earlier, were the first team to reach the second round of the series this season, knocking out the Trail Blazers with Aldridge and Oden 4-0.

Kevin Durant averaged 33.5 points and 7 rebounds per game in this series, Westbrook averaged 24.5 points and 7 assists per game, James Harden averaged 18.5 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists per game, Ibaka 12 points, 8 rebounds and 4 blocks…

The third year of the “Thunder Four Youngsters” together is like a ripe peach, salivating and eye-catching.

The Thunder management was also pulled out at this is and blown wildly.

This draft ability, as well as the ability to cultivate rookies, is really amazing…

Some people may want to say that I think that the ability to draft can cultivate the ability of rookies…

Aren’t they just giving up their records and running for three years, which is also called cultivating the ability of rookies?

Who can’t!

But……

Just look at Minnesota, there is a difference between running and running!

In addition to the Thunder, who advanced to the second round of the playoffs with a 4-0 scoreline, the other three groups that started a day earlier are now scored as follows: the Magic leads the Nets 3-1; The Lakers drew 2-2 with the Grizzlies; The Bulls lead the Philadelphia 76ers 3-1;

The other 4 sets of matchups played on the same day as the New York Knicks are: the Heat drew 2-2 with the Indiana Pacers; The Spurs lead the Jazz 3-1; The Clippers lead the Mavericks 3-1;

During this time, the league announced the “Most Improved Player Award”, “Best Head Coach Award” and “Best General Manager”:

The “Most Improved Player Award” belongs to Magic’s Ryan Anderson, who averaged 10.6 points per game last season, and this season’s average has soared to 16.6 points per game, which also makes him win the “Civilian MVP Award” with little resistance.

The “Best Head Coach Award” belongs to Greg Popovich…

After the first month of the season, similar public opinion circulated in the media, and as the Spurs remained firmly on the top spot in the regular season, and finally ended the season with a 65-17 record, Popovich’s winning of the award became more and more popular, and as a result, he also got his wish and became the “best coach” of the season.

This is the second time in his entire coaching career that he has received this award.

On the afternoon of the day he won the award, he continued to emphasize the “team” and “team culture” of “abandoning personal limelight” to Spurs players, and Leonard looked at the “best head coach” trophy in his hand and laughed in his heart.

Now his heart is the same as that pig demon in Langlang Mountain:

I want to leave San Antonio.

The “Best General Manager” belongs to “Belle Ye”.

As soon as Elgin Baylor won the award, a press conference was held.

Scold~

I’d like to see now, who dares to say I don’t know the ball!

April 25.

The Nets and Magic are in the fifth game of the series.

The Nets, who stood on the edge of the cliff, returned to their home court.

It can be seen from the expressions of the “five kings” who started before the game that they were nervous.

Fortunately, these people are not just debuting chicks, even Da Luo is now a third-year rookie, and he played in the Eastern Conference semifinals last year, experienced defeats, and had experience.

Unfortunately, after 4 games, the Magic are more familiar with their defense, and the speed of offensive penetration is very fast, and after the first quarter, the lead is almost 10 points.

At this time, Chris Paul began his “journey of self-redemption”, which you can also understand as:

My life is up to me.

And as he goes farther and farther on the road of “self-redemption”, the Nets are getting farther and farther away from victory.

Paul Pierce crossed his waist again and watched the difference widen, and finally couldn’t help it and dropped the white towel. Chris Paul saw that his teammate was in a mood and quickly went up to comfort:

“Don’t give up, buddy, we still have a chance, knock our stuff out, trust me, we’ll definitely win…”

Saying that, he stretched out his fist and wanted to collide with Paul Pierce.

Pierce looked into his determined eyes and listened to him continue: “I’ve already thought about our tactics later, and follow what I said… We can definitely win! ”

Win you MGB!

“Snap! ”

When Pierce heard this, he finally couldn’t help it, and slapped Paul’s fist away.

This scene frightened the reporters on the sidelines, and one by one immediately focused the camera on the two people, but if they looked at Kevin Garnett next to them at this time, they would find that the face of the “Wolf King” was full of calm.

Not only was he not surprised, but he also showed an expression of “Sure enough, I know”, apparently, he already knew that this day would come.

Chris Paul looked at it with a shocked face, as if he did not expect that his “gun slave”, no, his brother, would dare to slap his hand away.

Scold~

Another one who doesn’t want to win!

The conversation between the two Pauls ended.

The Magic crowd who noticed this scene became more and more energetic, and in the next wave of 10-2 scoring, the Magic successfully bulldozed the Nets’ base.

The big score was 4-1, and the Magic completed the “next gram”.

Next semi-finals…

The opponent they will meet is none other than the New York Knicks, who advanced a day earlier than them!

Howard meets Li Wan again!

Reporters surrounded Howard after the game and asked him if he was confident of beating Li Wan this time.

“Warcraft” answered in the affirmative, of course, he also explained why he is so confident: “I am not confident in myself, I have confidence in my teammates, I have a very good group of teammates, I believe, this time the result will be different!” ”

It is worth saying that Olam Multimedia is also confident this time.

The Knicks won an average of 27.5 points per game in the first round, although fierce, but the Magic can also win by about 15.4 points per game in 5 games with the Nets, considering that their opponent is the Nets, the fourth in the East, and the Knicks’ opponent is the Hawks, who are eighth in the East and have only 30 wins…

Others don’t know, anyway, in the eyes of Oran Multimedia, this average of 15.4 points is about equal to the New York Knicks’ average of 27.5 points per game!

And Howard’s average in this series is a terrifying 25.4 points and 14.4 rebounds, plus 2.8 blocks, such a performance…

Let Orlan Multimedia believe that Howard has ushered in his true peak.

The evening breeze of the “traditional era” has not yet been completely blown dry, and the current alliance is still circulating the saying that “those who get insiders win the world”, so…

The Magic may really be able to beat the New York Knicks this time!

Li Wan replied with a faint smile: “Then let’s see, how much progress they have made this time…”

Such a high-profile “superior” answer gave Howard a stronger belief in winning this series.

Who to look down on?

And with the league’s official announcement of the winner of this season’s “Best Defensive Player Award” on April 25, the gunpowder smell of the two teams reached another height…

Tyson Chandler became the final “Best Defensive Player Award” winner of the season with 35% of the vote.

The second most popular person was none other than Howard, who received 25% of the votes!

10% worse…
