Chapter 596: The strongest Kobe, the strongest Clippers!

　　, I’m so good at shooting
　　 When the Warriors and the Mavericks made the tiebreaker, the East and the West had also entered the conference finals.
　　 The situation of the other remaining teams at this time.
　　 From the West side, the Clippers swept the Hornets 4-0 in the first round and let the "58 Long" a solid hammer, and then faced the defending champion Nuggets in the semifinals.
　　 The Nuggets also defeated the Blazers 4-1 in the first round to reach the semifinals.
　　 The two teams also met on a narrow road.
　　 But the game played is a little different from the "Mars hitting the earth" many people imagine.
　　 The Clippers have demonstrated their offensive and defensive capabilities by a notch throughout the series.
　　Especially Kobe averaged 33 points per game throughout the series, shooting 49% from the field, which is terribly stable.
　　 In the end, the Clippers also eliminated the defending champion 4-1.
　　 Kobe also successfully avenged James and the Nuggets and returned to the conference finals.
　　 If you describe it, Kobe is now a ghost rider from hell, opening the road to revenge for everyone.
　　 And his last opponent in the West is Sun Hao!
　　 Let's talk about the Wizards and Pistons who received the most attention in the first round in the East.
　　 McGrady showed bravery after the closed shot. What is different from history is that Yao Ming's dominance is much stronger.
　　 After MM regained its top competitiveness, the Wizards played a wave of four consecutive victories and directly eliminated the Pistons in the second round with a 4-3 reversal.
　　 This song is so irritating, it's really goosebumps.
　　 And their opponents in the conference semifinals are determined to win... the Magic!
　　 Howard's heart is not enough to describe 10,000 mmp at this time. This is the Nth time he has faced Yao Ming.
　　 Don't talk about beating, he was already more than half of his heart before starting the beating.
　　 You must know that it was McGrady who was injured, but Yao Ming is very healthy!
　　 The result of this round of competition was also anticipated by many people at the beginning.
　　Although the overall strength of the Magic team was stronger than last year, in the end, they still lost 2-4.
　　 Howard's dream of a championship was ruthlessly ended the moment he met Yao Ming.
　　While the Wizards were not optimistic about everyone, they defeated strong enemies and reached the Eastern Conference Finals!
　　 This scene is even more exciting than the Warriors in the West.
　　 Even many people think of the Houston team led by Olajuwon.
　　Although the Wizards have not won a championship, they are at least the Eastern Conference champions.
　　In the East, don't underestimate the heart of an Eastern Conference champion!
　　 The opponents of the Wizards in the Eastern Conference finals are the Celtics.
　　 The Celtics’ playoff journey continues their old style, and they have been close to their opponents.
　　 After knocking out the Heat 4-2 in the first round, they played dimly with the Bulls in the second round, and they won by surprise until the tie-break.
　　 Then, Paul missed the floor again.
　　Wizards and Celtics are definitely weaker in overall strength.
　　 But after the first two rounds, no one dared to look down upon them.
　　 Anyway, there are many things to watch this year.
　　 Just as the conference finals were about to start, the league announced the final ownership of the MVP.
　　 This year is a fight between gods, and the ownership of this MVP is also quite interesting.
　　 In the end, Howard of the Magic beat a thrilling victory over Kobe, Nowitzki and other opponents, and was elected MVP for the first time in his career.
　　 Uh... Another MVP who was eliminated when winning...
　　 Counting Nowitzki and Kobe before, the MVP also has a spell!
　　 And Howard’s mood may be more complicated, because if it weren’t for Yao Ming...
　　He seems to be the old version of DeRozan!
　　 In addition to MVP, there is another thing that attracts attention.
　　 Curry, who had already soared to the top three prospects, suddenly broke out a hidden ankle injury, which made his draft market drop a lot compared to before.
　　 Although it is still a lottery, it has fallen to about tenth in the draft prediction list.
　　Of course, the playoffs are in full swing at this time, and not many people pay attention to this.
　　 Sun Hao also prepared for the Western Conference Finals with Warriors teammates.
　　 Oakland, the Warriors members are more excited than ever.
　　 They really never dreamed that they could play the Western Conference finals for the first time in the playoffs.
　　 You must know that this is now the dream of a certain 183 in the eastern part of his career so far!
　　 As expected, people are more popular than others.
　　 In addition to excitement, these lads of the Warriors also have a lot of expectations for the season.
　　 The conference finals can no longer satisfy them, not even the division champions, they are all thinking about the championship!
　　 Of course, they are improving every round.
　　The Mavericks suffered a big defeat in the opener, letting them know that they have to quickly get into the game in the first game of the playoffs, otherwise they will be hit by their opponents.
　　 Not to mention the Clippers, this is a variant of the classic Lakers in history.
　　 or it should be the plus version.
　　 Sun Yue is a solid role player, let alone, the most important thing is that Kobe is stronger than the same period in history.
　　 is not only strength, but also fighting spirit.
　　 How many failures accumulated before, he only fought for success this year.
　　 The day before the start of the Western Conference, the Warriors were doing their final preparations for the game.
　　 During the training session, Durant wore dark circles again like a panda.
　　 The Warriors can make the Western Conference Finals, of course they are inseparable from Sun Hao, but Durant's role cannot be ignored.
　　 Others fight it for next year, he is so talented, fight it for now.
　　 After the training session, the two people sat on the sidelines and chatted.
　　 The two talked, naturally, it was about tomorrow's game.
　　 And the focus of the chat is Kobe.

　　 "Which one do you think Shaun or Kailana will be better at preventing Kobe?"
　　 Durant asked.
　　 Sun Hao shook his head.
　　 This is not a multiple choice question, but a true or false question.
　　 No one's defensive effect is too good.
　　 "Is there really that degree? Same as you?"
　　 Durant asked.
　　 Although it was not that he did not play against the Clippers in the regular season, his intuitive feeling was not that strong because the two were not in the right position.
　　 Sun Hao nodded.
　　 "He is not much different from me now. As long as he has a stable teammate, he can dominate the game. The Clippers meet this condition."
　　 Sun Hao's words are not exaggerated.
　　 Although Kobe is still the number one guard in scoring, he has a strong passing consciousness when he matures.
　　 Especially this year, under the fire of revenge in his heart, he has been in a state of ease, or "Zone".
　　 Yes, so many years of failure kept him in this state for the whole year.
　　 "You should remember the US team losing to the Chinese team in Beijing last year in the Olympics, right?"
　　 Sun Hao then suddenly spoke.
　　 Duran nodded characteristically.
　　 Honestly, that was something he didn't expect. After all, the US team has almost the strongest lineup.
　　 Of course, he didn't care too much. After all, Americans' patriotism is more in the movies. In reality, they admire freedom most.
　　 What's more, losing to the Chinese team is acceptable to him, after all, there is Sun Hao's team!
　　 "I heard that Kobe put the Olympic silver medal in the most obvious position in his closet, just to keep reminding himself of how much he failed."
　　 Sun Hao continued.
　　 Durant hissed.
　　 Kobe... really is a cruel man.
　　 This is only what others can see, and behind what he can't see, he doesn't know how much sweat or even blood he has put in.
　　 "Then do you think we can win?"
　　 Durant couldn't help asking.
　　 "Whether or not it depends on us, not who the opponent is."
　　Sun Hao's philosophical answer made Durant a little confused.
　　 But after figuring it out, Durant nodded.
　　 The Spurs and Lone Ranger both won in front. Even if Kobe is strong, they are not without a chance.
　　 After all, they have Sun Hao's team!
　　 Tonight, the Eastern Conference took the lead in the fight.
　　Wizards MM will face the Celtics Big Three, round2!
　　 The Celtics have a strong performance at home.
　　 But the Wizards played well.
　　 After completing the 1 to 3 reversal in the last round, the momentum of the entire Wizards team has been completely different from the beginning.
　　 And when the enemy meets, they are extremely jealous!
　　 Two years ago, it was Dengtai Jones's kick that eliminated the Wizards' most promising championship.
　　 Now they want to take back everything they lost!
　　 At the end of the fierce battle, Yao Ming contributed the first lore of his career, turned his back and shook Garnett and succeeded in lore!
　　 The moment the goal was scored, the fans all over the world were boiling.
　　 McGrady screamed after the game even more rarely.
　　 His emotions have been suppressed for two full years. This time, even if he has exhausted his career, he has to get back what he lost!
　　 "You said, Boston shouldn't be able to make the finals again, right?"
　　 On game day, Durant rubbed his eyes and said.
　　 Sun Hao started to froze, then couldn't help but spoof.
　　 Even if Durant said, he almost forgot. The season before he retired, Durant also said so on social media.
　　 If it weren't for Dengtai Jones's kick, the Celtics might not even make it to the finals.
　　 But this time, he hopes the Wizards can win.
　　 After all, everyone loves to watch the script of revenge.
　　 Of course, his hope is useless.
　　 Everything is only known after the fight.
　　 Moreover, his focus now is on the immediate game with the Clippers.
　　 Although it would be difficult for the young Warriors to play against this mature Clippers team, the chances are not without them.
　　 That night, the Staples Center was packed.
　　 The Los Angeles fans sitting on the scene, whether it's the Lakers or the Clippers, are cramming the entire arena.
　　 Sun Hao returns to Los Angeles in the playoffs, which is different from the original regular season.
　　 When warming up before the game, Sun Hao's player channel three-pointers drew cheers from the scene.
　　 This seems a little different from when Sun Hao returned to Los Angeles during the regular season.
　　 After the opening ceremony, when Sun Hao played, the scene was also cheered instead of booing like during the regular season.
　　 This is a bit surprising, but it is understandable.
　　 After all, this is the home of the Clippers. Los Angeles fans and Lakers fans are sometimes the same, but sometimes they are different.
　　 Of course, when the home team Kobe debuted, the cheers of the fans reached a peak.
　　 The two seasons when Kobe returned to Los Angeles were very good, especially this season, which perfectly redeemed himself.
　　 After Sun Hao left, he was already a veritable new king of Los Angeles.
　　 Now Sun Hao is a guest, he is the master.
　　 After the opening ceremony, the starting lineups of the two teams were released one after another.
　　 The Clippers, Fisher, Kobe, Artest, Gasol, Bynum.
　　 Sun Hao is very familiar with this starting lineup, really a variant of the classic Lakers.
　　 Warriors side, Livingston, Sun Hao, Durant, Landry, Oden.
　　 Old Nelson also knew that neither Livingston nor Azubuike could prevent Kobe.
　　 So even if it's all like that, it's better to let Livingston have one more point on the court to dominate the ball.
　　 And to put it another way, it can't be prevented anyway, so it's better to attack!
　　 The game will begin immediately, and the starters on both sides will appear one after another.
　　 Live shots were given to Kobe and Sun Hao.
　　 Sun Hao's eyes are calm as water, but Kobe's eyes are aggression like fire, water and fire are incompatible!
　　 This is another encounter between the two in a key game after the Beijing Olympics.
　　Sun Ke showdown, a timeless classic.
　　 "Beep!"
　　 There was a whistle from the sidelines, and Oden dialed the ball back to the Warriors half, officially kicking off the Western Conference finals.
　　 Livingston advances to the frontcourt with the ball.
　　 Unlike the Spurs, although the Clippers' defense is also very strong, they emphasize personal defense more.
　　 Old Dunleavy used man-to-man the most.
　　Of course the most important thing is that the Lakers have Kobe, Artest and Bynum.
　　 These three were on the court at the same time, and the Lakers' defense went from the three-point line to the penalty area.
　　 Of course, this defense method is not without loopholes. The biggest loophole is Fisher.
　　 "Old Fish" Fisher.
　　Fisher was in the league with Kobe in the same year, but from the looks we know that these two people are a bit different in age.
　　 The fact is true. Kobe entered the league as a high school student at the age of 18, and Fisher entered the league at the age of 22 after four years of college.
　　Time flies, Kobe is now 31 years old and Fisher is 35 years old.
　　 Fisher's defensive characteristic is strong, and his most classic gif is a fast-break layup against James' bulldozer.
　　 But besides being strong, he has another characteristic that he moves slowly.
　　 When he was young, he could barely keep up with most defenders by relying on his quick reaction ability, but when he got older, it was a standard step.
　　 Now that the Warriors play off the ball in the frontcourt, Durant and Sun Hao cut back.
　　 Livingston passed the ball to Sun Hao, and Sun Hao made a breakthrough and passed Fisher, who had bypassed the pick and roll...
　　 Before Artest’s defense came up, Sun Hao took the opportunity to make a quick shot from the middle distance.
　　 "Huh!"
　　 With a crisp sound, Sun Hao's shot hollowed into the net.
　　 His hand feels very good.
　　 This goal also caused some sporadic cheers on the scene.
　　 Sun Hao feels a lot more comfortable.
　　 Sure enough, he still likes this atmosphere better than the boos he used to play against the Lakers in the regular season.
　　 But right away, Kobe was holding the ball in the high post, turning around and then leaning back to hit a ball before the double-team.
　　 Kobe's current back-up technology has reached the pinnacle, and it is the same as Jordan's back then.
　　 Although it is not as dominant as Jordan's, but from the perspective of viewing only, Kobe's turning back is better.
　　 Back to the defensive end, the Clippers' defense changed, and the person with Sun Hao became Kobe.
　　 Livingston passed the ball to Sun Hao, but this time Kobe moved around the pick-and-roll faster than expected, and he saved decisively, successfully grabbing the ball before it reached Sun Hao.
After 　　 grabbed, he quickly attacked the frontcourt and jumped up with a landmark drawbar dunk.
　　 "Boom!"
　　 The muffled dunk sound came out through the loudspeaker, and the entire Staples Center instantly boiled.
　　 Durant realized only then that what Sun Hao said was not exaggerated.
　　 This Kobe is outrageous, at least half a grade better than what he saw in the regular season!
　　 But in the next round, Durant received a pass from Livingston and pulled out his hand in response to Artest's unreasonable action.
　　 "Huh!"
　　 Go in too!
　　 Artest stared at Durant for a while when he saw the goal.
　　 He has defended various players since his debut, including Durant in front of him of course.
　　 But with the ball just now, he can feel that Durant now is different from before.
　　 The biggest difference is self-confidence.
　　 This sounds a bit mysterious, after all, I am confident that this kind of thing should not have much impact on strength?
　　 However, this is actually a real separation.
　　 Durant’s shooting is the kind that can ignore the defense. Once he becomes confident, it is really a sea of ​​stars that he has conquered.
　　 4 draws!
　　 The offensive state of the two teams in the opening game was very good.
　　 Kobe was double-teamed with the ball in the frontcourt. He also showed his improvement. Instead of attacking, he gave the ball to Gasol who was at the free throw line.
　　 Gasol responded in a high position, Kobe used the dog's pace to throw away Livingston, came out to receive a pass from Gasol, and shot back against Sun Hao's help.
　　 This ball is not easy.
　　 "Huh!"
　　 But Kobe still threw the ball in!
　　 He made all the first three shots in the opening game!
　　This is...not Mamba!
　　 But this is Kobe now!
　　 Kobe, the 24th peak! !
　　 The whistles and cheers at the scene have exploded.
　　 Especially for the real Clippers fans on the scene.
　　 When Sun Hao was with the Lakers, they had nothing but greedy eyes.
　　 But now, they have a Kobe comparable to Sun Hao.
　　 That kind of happiness is beyond words!
　　 "Defense! Defense!"
　　 After the excitement, the cheers on the scene also resounded through the arena.
　　 There was no chance for the Warriors' tactical movement. Sun Hao finally cut in and out and received a pass from Livingston.
　　 But Kobe's defense is in place.
　　 This Kobe is not only amazingly efficient offensively, but also defensively.
　　 Landry took the initiative to pull out and give Sun Hao a pick-and-roll. Sun Hao used the pick-and-roll to make a breakthrough from the right side to make an emergency stop.
　　 But at this time, Kobe actually bypassed the pick-and-roll and jumped up.
　　 A contest between the two in the air.
　　 At this time, Sun Hao is better than Curry in history.
　　His bounce is higher than Curry. Although he shoots single-action shots, his shooting points are much higher than Curry.
　　 Although Kobe’s block shot succeeded in destroying Sun Hao’s shot, he hit Sun Hao’s wrist and was fouled by the referee.
　　 Sun Hao's two free throw opportunities.
　　 After landing, Sun Hao found that Kobe's mood changed very little.
　　 You need to know the Kobe that he was familiar with before, how can this kind of ball be appealed by the referee.
　　 It seems that Kobe really only sees victory this season.
　　 Sun Hao went to the free throw line and made both free throws.
　　 6 levels!
　　 The two teams refused to give in after the opening!
　　 The Lakers had the sweetness, and then attacked the frontcourt and gave the ball directly to Gasol.
　　 Gasol responded, Kobe came out to catch the ball and then shot back.
"when!"
　　 Finally, Kobe's fourth shot came out.
　　 But at this time, Bynum stuck Oden under the basket, Gasol rushed into the post and grabbed an offensive rebound.
　　 Landry's judgment was very accurate, but he couldn't hold the Gasol man's high arm length, so he fished the ball from his head!
　　 And, completely unreasonable, Gasol put the ball directly over Landry's head into the basket.
　　 This feels like stripping someone naked and throwing them into the crowd, with no face left.
　　 But this is where Landry is short. His height is already very reluctant as a power forward, and his wingspan is not very good.
　　 With a power forward like Gasol, the role of the defensive end is really limited.
　　 But old Nelson has nothing to do. Ibaka is just a rookie, and the effect of going up to Gasol may not be much better than Landry.
　　 Not to mention sacrificing the offensive part.
　　 Before the words fell, Sun Hao borrowed Landry's pick and roll to get into the inside. There were stitches in the double-team, and the ball was knocked back to Landry.
　　 Landry takes a mid-range shot.
　　 "Huh!"
　　 The basketball drops steadily!
　　 8 draws!
　　 Both sides are on the bar every round!
　　 then retreated to the defensive end, and the Warriors began to double-team Kobe.
　　 Although the old Nelson is not good at defensively, he can still learn from others' efficiency.
However, this Clippers team is obviously different from the original Lone Ranger team~EbookFREE.me~ The two towers of Gasol and Bynum are connected. After Bynum got the ball, he faced Oden directly. Hook shot.
"boom!"
　　 The ball steadily fell into the basket after the board!
　　 Bynum's new offensive skills this season, hooks!
　　Teacher, next-door Lakers famous "Sky Go" Kareem!
　　 The Clippers' progress this season has a lot to do with Bynum's progress.
　　 Know that a skilled center and an unskilled center are completely two concepts!
　　 The cheers on the scene have been completely unstoppable, and the Clippers are in full bloom tonight.
　　 Warriors offense, Durant receives a pass from Livingston and prepares to shoot.
"Snapped!"
　　 But Artest patted the ball away before he shot it!
　　 As the strongest defensive player in the league, Artest once revealed in an interview that he divides his opponents into two types.
　　 One kind cannot be prevented, because the offensive methods are too rich and can only be restricted at most, such as Kobe, Sun Hao, and McGrady;
　　 And the other one can limit the number of his shots, such as Pinnacle Hill, he bluntly said that he would wait for Hill to make a two-step emergency stop before shooting.
　　 Durant now obviously belongs to the second kind.
　　 And Artest’s reaction speed is really fast, he has controlled the ball the next second he patted it off, and quickly thrown it to Kobe on the outside.
　　 Kobe once again made a quick drop, and he accelerated past Livingston, and the air draw rod caused Livingston’s thugs foul!
　　 12 to 8!
　　 The cheers of the Staples Center are about to overturn the ceiling.
　　 The strongest Kobe, the strongest Clippers! !
