Chapter 265: 4:1! Advance to the finals!


(There is a chapter later)
"It's the last step."
Sitting on the plane returning to Washington, Wang Xiao could not help sighing in his heart.
Since joining the league to coach the Wizards, Wang Xiao’s biggest opponent is the Heat.
LeBron James and Wade Bosh formed a combination of the Big Three from the 10-11 season and reached the peak. Since then, they have reached the finals for eight consecutive years. Although they only won three championships, their dominance in the east is unmatched.
From the Mavericks, Thunder and Spurs to the Warriors in the West, it is really a hard-working Zhanhuang, a strong team in the water.
The Wizards are located in the east, and they will inevitably be able to get around James. They can beat James to stand out from the east.
The Wizards did it last season, but that's because the Heat's Big Three have just been formed, and the cooperation between them is still not tacit.
And this season, James who should have obtained the regular season mvp can be regarded as the strongest state. The Wizards can get a 3-1 lead in the face of the strongest James. This is enough to show how strong the Wizards are now.
Stephen Curry, Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, these are the top ten stars in the future league, Curry and Leonard can even rank in the top five.
Klay Thompson and Jimmy Butler are also stable stars in the top 20.
The future does not mean the present, as if Jimmy Butler can only serve as a bench bench player in the team, but also be squeezed into the shooting guard position by Chandler Parsons.
However, under the accelerated training of the system training module, the strength of a few people can be compared with that of a rookie player.
The excellent players plus the small ball play that leads the current league, plus the hoarding of the front line against James, this makes the Wizards matchup heat so easy.
At present, the Wizards’ lineup seems extremely reasonable to Wang Xiao. The probability of winning this season is very high. After winning the championship, the Wizards need to do what they can to keep the existing lineup.
This is a bit more difficult. According to the current performance of Curry and George, it is almost fair to say that the top salary is right. Although Thompson and Leonard have been less prosperous this season, they come from the height of their future growth. See, the contract must be big.
A big contract for four players may not be a big deal for a team like the Blazers or the Nets, but the Wizards may be overwhelmed.
More importantly, the maximum salary contract does not represent an absolute temptation. The main core of a team may only have one. The rest of the team may not be willing to be a supporter forever, like George and Leonard. , All have the ability to be the main core of a team. Now the Wizards’ core is Curry. The team’s tactics and play are almost all around Curry. Now others have no idea, but For a long time, with the increase of honor and ability, it is bound to want to pursue more things, such as being the boss of a team, this is human nature.
Therefore, the peak period of this lineup is only three to four years, and the chance of winning the championship with this lineup is only this period of time, we must seize the time to grasp.
...
In the fifth game of the Eastern Conference, the field returned to the Wizards' home. The game was full of seats. The Wizards' ball fans were waiting for the team to win this game and advance to the finals again.
However, this process is a bit tortuous.
It may be that the last game opened a big move and the skill entered the reading. At the beginning of this game, Curry's feel was not good. Several attempts to "sex" three-point shots "shot" all missed the basket.
On the other side, James, who was forced to a desperate situation, also fought with his old fate and showed his full strength on the field.
In the first quarter, Curry only scored 4 points, while James scored 15 points and 4 assists in a single quarter, leading the Heat to a double-digit lead.

In the second quarter, James and Wade complemented each other with a good connection, and the firepower rose again, making the difference between points further widened. When the half ended, the two teams scored 57:41, and the Wizards were 16 points behind at home.
Fortunately, during the halftime break, Wang Xiao made some adjustments to stabilize the situation, and when the bench lineup came on, Jamison stood up and used a deadly shot to catch up the score a little bit.
When the main force of the two teams re-entered the game, the point difference has been reduced to less than 10 points.
By this time, Curry finally recovered his feel, hitting two three-pointers in a row, scoring 6 points in a row, almost equalizing the points.
Spoelstra had to call a timeout to stabilize the situation, but after the timeout came back, the Heat still needed to rely on James to organize the offensive.
However, at this time, James' physical fitness has reached the limit as in previous games.
This is no way. If you want to resist the Wizards' sharp offense, James must ensure the quality of the offense on the court.
Under the entanglement of Leonard and others, it is almost impossible to save physical strength.
With the loss of physical energy, mistakes will naturally increase.
James didn't catch a steady ball and went out of bounds when he broke the ball. Then he passed the ball and was intercepted by George in another attack.
Two consecutive mistakes allowed the Wizards to seize the opportunity to make a fast break, overtaking the score in one fell swoop.
When the two teams overtake the score, it seems to mean the end.
Although the Heat players are struggling to chase points, the almost desperate atmosphere has spread within the team.
When the game reached the second half of the fourth quarter, the score has been completely reversed, the Wizards lead the Heat 13 points 98:85.
...
When the whistle at the end of the game sounded, Curry, who was in possession of the ball, threw the ball high into the sky, followed by cheers from the audience and the sound of the color flower salute.
The Wizards won the Eastern Conference Championship for two consecutive years and advanced to the finals. This is an unprecedented moment in the history of the Wizards!
"Boom!"
In a box, Riley's face was somber, and he punched the table in front of him.
For two consecutive years! Actually lost to a rookie team composed of a rookie coach for two consecutive years! What a joke?
At the moment when the Heat's three giants were formed, Riley was a hero. He proved that he could not only succeed as a head coach, but also as the general manager of a team.
It should have been the same, forming the three giants, winning the championship, establishing the dynasty, and succeeding...
However, all this was destroyed by a Chinese!
The Big Three have fallen on the East Finals for two consecutive years. This is absolutely not allowed. Regardless of fame, the ultimate definition of a team’s strength is its achievements. If it fails to win the championship, it is a failure.
If the Big Three promoted by Riley have never won the championship, then his general manager will not only be praised by people, but will be ridiculed... because he missed the ghost coach from China in the summer of 2007 !
