The Fifth Point Guard

Chapter 525: Reach the semifinals

Iverson is the soul of Philadelphia.

At home in Philadelphia, the Cavaliers suffered a full boo.

Even the reminders and shouts of the teams on the court are not clear to each other, so that Wagner has to stick to Shentong's ears to communicate information.

"This Niang's is about to catch up with the busiest time of the nightclub." Wagner shouted.

"Communicate in another way, and if this continues, we will be crushed!" Shen Tong turned his head and shouted in Wagner's ear.

It was the rest time at the end of the first quarter of the game. The Cavaliers temporarily trailed the 76ers by 8 points 19-27.

Iverson opened the scoring king mode as soon as the game opened, scoring consecutive individual singles.

Almost the whole team is doing the ball and screen for Iverson, and the Cavaliers' zone defense and double-teaming tactics, because the communication between teammates is overwhelmed by the noise made by the home fans, so the defensive rhythm often fails to keep up, resulting in Iverson succeeded again and again.

......

With Shentong's proposal, the players opened another way of communication in the second quarter.

This method must be used only when the running-in is in place and even the personal relationship is very good.

That's... eye contact!

Wagner holds the ball at the top of the arc.

Iverson kept waving and harassing, while pressing tightly.

Wagner cast a look: Bastard, what to look at, it's not enough!

James hurriedly stepped forward to cover, his generous figure blocked Iverson.

Wagner dribbled the ball quickly, and his eyes exchanged with Shen Tong in the bottom corner.

Shen Tong cast a glance, and then quickly slid along the bottom line to the penalty area.

Wagner received it immediately and threw the ball to the basket with both hands.

Dalem Porter's ability to intercept at the basket is quite good, and the Haitian center's big hands bring the defensive defensive power of the basket at all inferior to the 2.23m tall Z.

But when he stretched out his hand to stop the ball in the air, he found that the pass was too high.

This is a mistake!

Dalem Potter just thought of this, only to feel the sound of breaking through the air beside him.

Shentong single-handedly exceeded Dalembert's fingertips with two full palms, caught Wagner's pass in the air, and slammed into the basket!

After scoring the goal, Shentong, James, and Wagner folded their hands together, slammed them, and let out a roar.

This is a tacit understanding from the "iron triangle of nightclubs"!

This is the "second language" cultivated by three people who often go to noisy nightclubs together!

Although the verbal communication was lost, the eye contact came faster.

And according to the transmission of eye contact information, the first reaction will be triggered immediately, which is quite fast.

When looking around at the nightclub, she stared at a hot girl.

The other party looked over and immediately killed the glass of wine in his hand...

This kind of knee-jerk reaction is quite low for the players who have been training tactics all the year round.

So in the second quarter, the Cavaliers evened the score.

In the second half, Gu Deng came off the court to rest, James topped the fourth position, and Miller played the third position.

When facing Miller, Korver scored two three-pointers in a row, and he was a little unbeatable. He kept spreading his hands and interacting with the fans on the sidelines, but his mouth was grunting and he didn't know what to say. , But this behavior is tantamount to a challenge to Miller.

When the Chicago Bulls won six consecutive championships, Reggie Miller never beat Jordan, let alone Korver.

Thus, Miller, who was eager for revenge, avenged his grudge on the spot.

Two quarters in the second half, exactly one and a half, Miller made 5 of 5 3-pointers from the outside, and Korver, who defended at the same time, missed all the next three shots. This gave people a taste of how the old shooter was doing both offense and defense. The style of the end.

On the sidelines, Paul Silas said emotionally to his assistant team: "With Reggie, the team's offensive system has been enriched a lot, and the outside shooting has a stronger point. It is great that he is willing to come to Cleveland."

In the end, Iverson scored 39 points, the 76ers still lost 102-108 to the Cavaliers, a big score behind 0-3.

The former King Chris Webber, who was given high hopes by Philadelphia, failed to support Iverson. He made 5 of 10 shots without free throws and only scored 10 points and 5 rebounds, making him a blue-collar player.

Shentong routinely scored 30+ and he scored 33 points.

James had a triple-double with 19 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.

With 39 points and the team still lost, Iverson finally got angry.

There was a problem with the Sixers' locker room.

According to people familiar with the matter, Iverson had a big fight with Webber in the locker room.

When the two big men quarreled, including Willie Green, Korver, Dalembert and others, they even suppressed their breathing, and did not dare to breathe.

Only one person dared to stand up and be the peacemaker.

This guy is called Iguodala.

What's more, after Iguodala came forward, Iverson and Webber really stopped arguing.

Since that day, Iguodala has been privately called "Big Brother" by the 76ers...

......

Philadelphia failed to perform miracles in the 2002 Finals, and neither did this time.

The Cavaliers beat the 76ers 98-83 in the fourth game and swept their opponents 4-0.

Iverson averaged 28 points and 8 assists per game, but failed to help the team achieve a victory, which made Iverson feel very frustrated.

The combination of Iverson + Weber was also officially deemed a failure.

After this round of the series, there are rumors that Iverson will leave Philadelphia.

......

Other games in the first round of the Eastern Conference.

The Heat are playing against the Pacers who have a crippled lineup.

After Miller's departure and the battle of Auburn Hills Palace, the Pacers seemed to have lost their championship spirit.

Under the leadership of O'Neal and Wade in the "playoffs" state, the Heat defeated the Pacers 4-0 and entered the second round.

Team coach Rick Carlisle said that during the offseason, he will have a heart-to-heart talk with every player on the team to help them return to form as soon as possible.

Carlisle believes that the Pacers' record this season is not a real level, but was affected by the war of the century.

When the players can concentrate all their energy on the court, they are still strong contenders for the Eastern Conference championship.

The Pistons and Wizards played very intensely in this series.

This is a contest between spear and shield.

The Pistons, who lost the Spurs last season, are determined to take revenge. Although they have experienced the Battle of Auburn Hills like the Pacers, their impact on them is limited.

Moreover, the players of Motor City are generally tougher than those of the Pacers.

However, the Pistons can't easily pass, because their opponent has Arenas promoted to "General".

This season the Wizards returned to the playoffs with the help of Arenas, Jamison and Hughes' three musketeers.

In the first two home games of the Pistons, Arenas scored 34 and 32 points respectively, leading the Wizards to a 2-0 lead away.

This surprised the experts and fans who were generally optimistic about the Pistons before the game.

Arenas looked very happy at the press conference after the second game. He said that the team will play two more games at home to resolve the battle after returning to Washington.

This sentence means that the Wizards will sweep the Pistons 4-0.

This sentence made the Pistons quite dissatisfied.

The last person with similar remarks was Tracy McGrady when he played for the Magic. As a result, the latter's team was pulled by the Pistons for three consecutive games with a 3-1 lead, and was eventually eliminated 3-4.

Arenas' words also make many people worry that the Wizards will repeat the Magic's mistakes. After all, normally speaking, the Pistons are still superior to the Wizards.

After the second game, Arenas invited the team to a nightclub in Detroit and went crazy.

The Auto City is a "blue-collar city" with an underdeveloped economy, so most of the economic sources come from some special services in nightclubs.

In the third game, the Pistons swept the Wizards 90-69 away.

Under the double double team of Billups and Hamilton, Arenas made only 3 of 17 shots and only scored 11 points. In addition, there were 5 turnovers.

Arenas's game aroused a lot of ridicule in the media.

Something like "Arenas soft-footed shrimp", "o-in-Detroit, he left a lot of essence", "Big talk is early again" and so on.

The Pistons also pulled back a game away first.

However, in the fourth game, Arenas reappeared as a "general", and Jamison and Hughes also became Arenas' powerful men.

Arenas scored 30 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists, Jamison had 22 points and 10 rebounds, and Hughes had 17 points and 5 steals.

The Wizards defeated the Pistons 102-95 and got the match point 3-1!

The Pistons returning to the home court had no retreat, fighting the Wizards to overtime, and relying on Hamilton's jumper before the final game, narrowly defeating the Wizards by 2 points, keeping the suspense.

According to the game system, the sixth game will come to the Wizards' home court.

The Wizards must win this battle, otherwise they will go to Detroit with 3-3.

In this game, Arenas used the power of milking, and Jamison, who has always been disgusted with hand-to-hand combat, also began to compete for the double Wallace card position at the basket.

At the last moment of the game, Arenas threw an incredible logo three-pointer, helping the team lead by 4 points with 1.3 seconds left, and sent the Wizards to the Eastern Conference semifinals on their own!

The Wizards beat the Pistons 4-2 and broke the first round of the playoffs' first upset.

Arenas can finally fulfill his big talk.

......

The Boston Celtics and Chicago Bulls' game was the closest in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, but the score failed to show.

With the help of Paul Pierce, Al Jefferson, Ricky Davis, returning Antoine Walker and Gary Payton who joined this season, the Celtics easily beat the offensive and defensive balance 4-1. The Bulls advance to the next round.

The Celtics can win so easily, in addition to the relative strength of the main lineup, the bench lineup is also very luxurious.

Reeve LaFrentz, Tony Allen, Delonte West, Kendrick Perkins and others are all capable fighters.

But their opponent in the next round is the mighty Cleveland Cavaliers.

......

The west side.

The first-ranked Suns faced the eighth-ranked Grizzlies.

This season, the Suns have blew up a whirlwind in the league. After a few seasons, the Suns have won 62 wins.

Steve Nash is also considered the most popular candidate for the MVP this season.

After the Grizzlies made a huge breakthrough last season, they continued to play five-on-five-under under the leadership of coach Hubie Brown this season.

Unfortunately, this tactic failed to help the Grizzlies go further this season.

The Suns defeated the Grizzlies 4-0 in the playoffs and advanced to the Western Conference semifinals.

......

The Spurs, second in the Western Conference, played against the Nuggets, seventh in the Western Conference.

The Spurs, which have a combination of GDP, are still performing calmly. The entire regular season is not obvious, but at the last glance, they are second in the Western Conference.

As the defending champions, the Spurs will fully show their old side in the playoffs.

The Nuggets played very well this season and made a **** road in the powerful West.

After acquiring Fauvist power forward Kenyon Martin, the team has strong players in all positions.

In the first game of the series between the two sides, the Nuggets shocked the Spurs in a cold sweat.

They turned away and defeated the Spurs 93-87 and took a 1-0 lead.

Unexpectedly, the Nuggets overtook the score in the fourth quarter and finally won.

They beat the Spurs by hitting a 20-12 single in the fourth quarter.

The Nuggets' first performance was a wake-up call for the Spurs.

Then, the awakened Spurs began to teach the Nuggets how to be a man.

104-76, the Spurs bloodbathed the Nuggets in the second game, and continued to win three consecutive games, eliminating the Nuggets 4-1.

The Spurs are still hot, and the Nuggets' first victory looks more like a sneak attack.

......

The third SuperSonic in the West is facing the sixth King in the West.

The Kings, who lost Weber, built the team with sharpshooter Peja Stojakovic as the core.

However, this Croatian marksman, like his predecessor Kukoc, does not have the ability to lead a team alone in the NBA.

The Kings relied on their overall strength to barely squeeze into the playoffs, but they did not seem to be competitive for the Western Conference championship.

The rise of the Sonics this season is surprising.

But this round of the series is very interesting, that is, the battle between two marksman Peja and Ray Allen.

In the end, the series ended with a 4-1 elimination of the Kings by the SuperSonics.

Ray Allen won the sharpshooter battle, but the real reason the Sonics were able to beat the Kings was that their rebounds completely suppressed the Kings.

After a failed season, the Kings seem to be determined to completely rebuild.

......

In addition to Shentong's Cavaliers and 76ers, Chinese fans are most concerned about this round of series between the Rockets and Mavericks played by Yao Ming.

The Rockets took a surprising 2-0 lead on the road!

This process seems to be the same as the last time and space where Shentong was located.

So Shentong also called Yao Ming and McGrady specifically to tell them that they must ensure the victory in the third game and that they must not relax because of the lead. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

"You must focus on the end of the game!"

Yao Ming and McGrady, who received the call from Shentong, did indeed do it in the game.

Although they had a 20-point lead in the third quarter, they still did not relax.

Although the Mavericks had narrowed the score gap to 10 points, the Rockets did not relax anymore, so the Rockets finally transformed the lead into a victory. They defeated the Mavericks 106-102 and led by 3-0!

Insert one sentence, [\Mic\Mic\Reading\app\\] It's really good, it's worth installing, even Android and Apple phones support it!

After learning that the Rockets had won the third victory at the time, Shentong believed that the fate of the Rockets in this time and space would change.

But things are unpredictable.

In the next game, the Mavericks miraculously pulled four rounds in a row, eliminated the Rockets 4-3, and created the history of the NBA!

The Mavericks became the first team in NBA history to fall behind 0-3 and eventually come back 4-3.

When Shen Tong learned the news, the whole person was stunned.

He did not expect that the final result of the Rockets has not changed compared to the last time and space. On the contrary, it has been more humiliatingly nailed to the stigma of NBA history, and it will become the background board for the Dallas Mavericks to boast of themselves in the future.

......

After the first round, 8 teams advanced and 8 teams were eliminated.

The list of matches for the East and West semi-finals was released.

east:

(1) Cleveland Cavaliers VS Boston Celtics (4)
