Vol 18 Chapter 1966: End of the Age of Lords

Sloan's great strength lies in his ability to control injuries. Deron's type of player who relies on physical fitness has not been injured much when he is under his hands. Deron is less than 30 years old when he joins the Nets. , He was so injured that he fell directly out of the All-Star level, and now the Mavericks can only play as a substitute.
Boozer just went to the Jazz with constant injuries, but through adjustments in play under the guidance of Sloan and Malone, he was traded to the Clippers in the last season of the 14-15 season. He also played 80 games that year. 34 years old.
On Rivers’s side, Love played so far in the playoffs for the first time...This is the second time he played in the playoffs in his career. When it came to the Battle of Tianwangshan in the Eastern Conference, Love competed for rebounds in the interior. The ball fell off the ball, and the right elbow was injured. He had to be injured for at least two weeks. Even if the Nets reached the finals, they were basically reimbursed for the season!
The Nets lacked Love, and Larry Sanders had enough game experience inside. Porzingis was bullied enough by Griffin and Gibson in the playoffs this year! Griffin averaged 25.5 points and 9.5 rebounds in the first four games, and Gibson averaged 11.3 points and 6.7 rebounds. When Love couldn't play, Porzingis was directly pierced by the Clippers' striker!
Just a little bit, the Nets were almost able to bring the Bulls down. However, when Love broke out, the Nets themselves broke down first!
It's still a matter of playing time allocation. Since the second round of playing the Celtics, Rivers has caught the three insiders and used them all the time. In the Eastern Conference Finals, even with the exception of these three, they have not used other insiders. Someone can use them. He didn’t even dare to try a change. Sloan’s side, even Cristiano Felicio, a short center, who is completely unknown to most fans who watch the live broadcast except for the Bulls fans. He was sent to play 10 minutes per game to help Lopez relieve the pressure, while Rivers held Justin Hamilton and Scola in his hands as a substitute with his thighs, but they often hid them in the playoffs.
What puzzled the fans the most was that sometimes Trevor Booker or Scoramín played very well in the last game and suddenly zero playing time in the second game.
No, Love was too tired to grab a rebound and was injured, and the Nets collapsed a thousand miles!
Porzingis is too tender. He is not an opponent of Griffin and Gibson. He still needs time to become stronger. Larry Sanders is a pure defensive center... the Nets have been defeated!
...
On May 30, the Bulls defeated the Nets 111-98 and won the Battle of Tianwangshan. On June 1, the first day of the new month, the Bulls beat the Nets 122-119 in away games, a big score of 4. Eliminated the Nets by 2 and reached the finals for three consecutive years!
God VS Shuangsha again!
Evans scored 42 points, 8 rebounds, 11 assists and 3 steals in the sixth game, but he was still a little short, missing a key goal.
Public opinion generally believes that the Nets have done a good enough job. From being impoverished and not even having a draft pick, to now they have the strength to beat the Bulls, and they are almost lucky. This luck may not be able to make up for it.
Rivers was rounded anyway.
Some fans also think that Rivers is not easy. He was the kind of head coach of the dead star in the playoffs. He even had such a tendency in the regular season. Otherwise, he would not give up Tracy McGrady. The Celtics were able to succeed in the period because Pierce and Garnett were resistant to grass, and in 2009, even Garnett was injured by Rivers and fell sharply.
This is what the stars of ten years ago used to do. It’s normal to play 40 minutes in the playoffs. Perhaps the players are not tolerant of grass.
But it is true that it is not possible to adapt to the rotation method of today's fast-paced era and dare not easily try to use role players in the playoffs. This is Rivers' personal problem.
However, the Nets still received a lot of expectations. They also have bright spots in this year's playoffs. I thought that the Nets small forwards and shooting guards would suffer a lot when playing the Bulls. After all, the Bulls have a lot of 3D forwards. Very powerful, but Rendezvous Jefferson and Caris Loft, two rookie contract players, played very well, playing against Ariza, McDermott, McAway, Wade... and other forwards. The players did not lose too much in the duel, and the Nets were able to compete with the Bulls.
The Nets core is at the peak, young players are very talented, and the future looks bright.
In just two years, the Nets have reached the point where they can compete with the Bulls for the strongest team in the East. It has not been easy. This is the hardest time the Bulls have played in the East in three seasons.
...
"It's the Bulls again... Well, it's almost the same. It's always fun to play against Shuangsha..."
After watching the sixth game of the Eastern Conference Finals, Sun Ce was sorry that Evans did his best or lost. He liked to play against Evans very much. The little emperor at the point guard position is very worth fighting. opponent.
But Rose + Griffin's double champion is both evil, and Sun Ce also likes to play against them.
Regardless of the reason, as long as the first round is over, the opponent the Grizzlies can meet must be the stronger one in the opponent's set of duels. For example, the Jazz defeated the Lakers in the second round, then the Jazz is the first. One of the two stronger teams in the second round, the Bulls reached the Finals. The Bulls are the strongest team in the East this year. It's that simple.
Sun Ce was naturally excited to fight against the strongest opponent.
The next day, on the morning of June 2, Sun Ce went to Chicago with the team.
Sun Ce prefers to play with the Nets at first because it has been a long time since he played with Evans in the finals. The last time the 76ers formed the ultimate of Evans, Holiday, Iguodala, and Howard in 2012 The defensive lineup that year, and the Nets, their Grizzlies have home court advantage...
But playing the Bulls did not.
Playing the Bulls in the Finals has no home court advantage, and Sun Ce is still unaccustomed to losing things.
The first game of the finals was on June 5th. When we arrived in Chicago, the Grizzlies did not stay in the downtown hotel. The hotel was booked to stay on the 4th night. In the past two days, the owner Robert Pera borrowed a holiday estate from his friend. , Indoor courts, private cinemas, bars... everything is available. Except the bar is blocked and the wine cellar is blocked, other venues can be used at will. There are also a bunch of servants, like a hotel, without worrying about other things.
The reason for doing so was for fear of being "retaliated." When the Bulls went to Memphis to play in the Finals in the past two years, their local fans in Memphis did not make the Bulls players feel better. The Bulls stayed in the hotel on the big night. The strange scene of catching an affair appeared, and the Bulls had to book the hotel for the second night.
It’s also rare to say that weird examples like the owner of the Bulls are very rare. The Bulls are unambiguous in terms of tax payment, as long as they don’t pay the super luxury tax, but the Bulls owners are desperate for "small money". The Bulls home team’s locker room is The worst in the entire NBA. The last refurbishment of the United Center was in 2007. It has been 10 years and it hasn’t been refurbished properly. Other stadiums are usually refurbished every 5 years, like Oracle Arena. The arena is usually renovated once every three years. The United Center arena has been used for longer than the Oracle arena. It has been 23 years and should have been renovated. However, their bosses are reluctant to spend money after passing the security check. Although the quality is true Good, but this kind of "little thing", you can see that the Bulls boss is really weird.
The finals do not include hotels, which is rare in the NBA.
After the Grizzlies advanced to the Finals, they took a good rest for three days, and got another night off in Chicago before preparing for the game on the 3rd.
However, Sun Ce’s training has not fallen. He knows that this is the least advantage of all opponents in the playoffs in their three seasons. If he is not in good shape, the Western Conference will really be delayed by the Jazz. Even if he wins, it is estimated that it will take about six games, that is, in the first game, he directly beat most of the opponent's players to lose confidence. At least it made most of the opponent's players feel the gap and deepened the opponent's idea that it doesn't matter if you lose. Only to pass the level so smoothly can he create more rest time for his teammates.
Otherwise, their Grizzlies will be dragged to about 6 games, and there is really no advantage at all.
The Bulls are at the end of the crossbow, why not their Grizzlies?
Although Paul George's shoulder injury needs surgery to heal, but taking two more days of rest and reducing shoulder pressure may help Paul George be in a better state. The defense is not tight, but a good rest can at least allow him to counterattack. Better physical strength.
Klay Thompson has been resting for more than half a month, and his state is hard to say. Instead of rushing out of the game, he should practice for a few more days.
But in the absence of an advantage on the inside and Gian did not know his state after his return, and the main players on the outside also suffered injuries, the state of his grandson is the key to the team's victory!
On the other side, the Bulls returned to Chicago after playing the Eastern Conference Finals, rested for a night, and also entered preparations on the 3rd.
The preparation for the day is very easy, there is no load training, it is all simple training, running tactics, discussing tactics, researching and discussing the problems of the Grizzlies' double 3D and center position, and seeing how to deal with the Grizzlies.
Indeed, their Bulls have a chance this year! After the Grizzlies have shown great dominance for two consecutive years, the only remaining dominance of the Grizzlies is Sun Ce. It is not that they think Sun Ce is easy to deal with, but the grays of the previous two years. The Bears are too strong.
Especially the Grizzlies in the 14-15 season, 16 wins and 0 losses in the playoffs, strong starting, strong substitutes, and a good run-in. Last season's Grizzlies were also invincible, strong starting, although the bench was weaker, but the overall strength The strongest in the league, the Warriors last season were nearly lost.
This year, the Grizzlies are missing Randolph, and Tony Allen's state is obviously no longer suitable for playing in the NBA. The main perimeter substitutes are Brogdon and Jaylen Brown two rookies, and the interior is not as comprehensive as before.
There are two points where the Grizzlies are strongest this year. One is Sun Ce and the other is chemistry.
When Paul George was in the Western Conference Finals, he was clearly in a bad state. Apart from counterattacks, cuts and setters, he couldn't make much contribution on the offensive end. However, the tacit understanding of the major players was very good. Paul George would not shoot well. Others know how to adjust the style of play, and the cooperation is still excellent.
The Bulls are afraid of the Grizzlies on these two points.
As for the rest, Sloan on the Bulls side asserted that the Grizzlies were the weakest year in three years! Coupled with injuries, this is their best chance.
At the end of the day's preparations, Rose went to the physiotherapy room to do ice packs.
Regardless of Sloan’s tactical discussion that devalues ​​the overall strength of the Grizzlies, he emphasizes that the Grizzlies are not as strong as in previous years... Ross pays more attention to another aspect that Sloan said. Sun Ce is powerful!
Yes, Rose thinks Sloan is right. After so many years on the Grizzlies, the main players are too tired. Gobert won't suffer in the playoffs. Aldridge has no ability to lead the team. Most of the time. It is the icing on the cake. It is difficult for him to save the team. Klay Thompson and Paul George played in the finals for the 5th time in 6 years. Excessive fatigue has caused injuries and the bench is not as good as their Bulls... But! It was the Grizzlies that made it to the Finals, not the other strong teams in the Western Conference. For this reason, the Grizzlies can't be weak!
Among them, the one that dreads Rose the most is Sun Ce.
This opponent is amazing! Rao is that he has an MVP-level teammate like Griffin, and it is difficult to match Sun Ce.
Also, the Grizzlies are bothered by their strengths. Isn't they the Bulls? In terms of strength, even if the Nets are all in order, their Bulls should have a strength advantage, but when they played against Love, they retired from injury, and their Bulls could not play any advantage. Every game was anxious, of course, physical strength. Ben is also part of the strength, and indeed, it is also part of the strength. They face the Grizzlies, their physical strength is not an advantage.
That’s the problem, Sun Ce!
In the past 10 games of the Grizzlies, Sun Ce has played 6 games! Sun Ce played 46 minutes per game in the past 10 games!
He knew that this was just a saying that the coaching staff wanted to boost morale. After all, they had lost miserably in the finals in the past two years.
And their Bulls really need to rely on these things to boost morale. Even if they beat the Grizzlies once in the regular season, Rose can feel it. When the Grizzlies reach the finals again, the team atmosphere of their team suffers. With a small influence, the idea of ​​"don’t want to win the Eastern Conference Finals" appeared. Fortunately, he held a player meeting and reversed the ideas of his teammates. Only then could he seize the opportunity of Love’s injury and lead the team to the total for three consecutive years. finals.
But just as Sloan said, this is the year they have a real chance to win in the past three years! Even though their physical strength is also a big problem, the opponent has more problems than them. The Bulls have a healthy lineup and a deep lineup. After all, they are the maximum salary, and they are the maximum salary before the salary cap skyrocketed. Unlike the Grizzlies, there are 4 maximum salaries before the salary cap soars. Their salary is not much lower than that of the Grizzlies. They will all be below the luxury tax threshold and pay high luxury taxes for two consecutive years. After guaranteeing that they will not continue to pay the luxury tax for the third year and avoid triggering the super luxury tax, it means that they have more money to spend on role players.
Ross knows it very well, and Griffin knows it very well. This is the last year of their "flying flow" style of the No. 1 pair of Shuangsha combination. Sloan has already discussed with them. This summer, he will guide them. Changing the style of play from physical fitness to floor flow. This is not just a change in their play style. The team's lineup structure will also change. The team will change to adapt to their play style. After all, they are 29 years old. A 28-year-old has a tendency to decline in athletic ability from the peak period. Griffin is more obvious, and a change in play style is imperative.
The change of play style is good from the starting point, but the result is unknown. After all, the change does not necessarily mean success! But now, their style of play still has a chance to succeed, so they have to fight! Because the change of play style is imperative, Wade signed Wade for 24 million last summer, which was only signed for one year. After signing Wade, the renewal of the contract with the bird-right Ariza and others was mostly one year. Even if they are ready to change, the Bulls still have a long-term vision.
Rose also wants to be a player who can play for 20 years, and Griffin is the same, so now in the last year of stable strength before the change of play, Rose wants to win the championship!
...
Both want to create a dynasty, while wanting to win the championship and attack the dynasty, both have strong ambitions, and they are all working hard to adjust to the best possible state, ready for the finals for three consecutive years.
After the Bulls reached the finals, the media also hyped the topic of "fate showdown".
Once, Evans and Rose, who have met in the Eastern Conference playoffs for many years, were hyped up for a fateful matchup. Even this Eastern Conference Finals was still hyped. But as soon as the Eastern Conference Finals ended, the media "forgot" Rose and Evan. Si's fateful duel turned to hype the fateful duel between Sun Ce and the champion Shuangsha combination.
It's because Griffin became the third player to win the MVP of the regular season since 2009, otherwise Griffin will be expelled from the "No. 1 player."
Griffin is also innocent. As far as the draft of the year is concerned, any team that gets the No. 1 pick will choose Griffin. Oklahoma City uses Ibaka, Jeff Green, the No. 3 pick and the Clippers for No. 1 pick. The Clippers didn't agree to the signing, and the Grizzlies wanted to pick Griffin... but he had a Sun Ce in the same year, so there was no way.
If it weren’t for this MVP, Griffin would have to face the humiliation of the annual 2009 rookie rearrangement, even if he was only
passively
selected as the top pick, after winning the MVP, he finally became a
righteous
top pick. Show is really not easy.
In addition to this, there is another topic that made the "ticket-grabbing battle" of this finals extremely crazy-the last finals in the Age of Lords!
Chinese fans began to use Sun Ce's new nickname-Thanos.
Many people in the United States do not know the word "Thanos", which means "Thanos". Just as many Chinese fans don't know that the word Peter Pan is not Kobe's nickname in the United States, the American media translates "Thanos" as " "Destroyer", which means destroyer and destroyer, is propagating that the NBA is about to pass the "Lord Era" of Sun Ce's God, and it will enter the "Destroyer Era". The direction of the hype is different. The mainstream public opinion is that Sun Ce has already begun. Undermining the hegemony of basketball in the world, the basketball atmosphere in many European and Asian countries and regions has become stronger because of Sun Ce's success. More talented children want to join the basketball career, even ordinary people, spend it on basketball. The training time has become more, and more talented players are more likely to appear.
And this is undoubtedly a huge damage to the American basketball hegemony. It happens to be consistent with the translation of Sun Ce’s new nickname to the United States. After Sun Ce monopolizes the title of basketball god, if he is further opposed Jordan's lead has widened. When the of basketball does not belong to the United States, the enthusiasm for basketball in other countries is bound to increase further! The pattern of the basketball world will be completely broken!
This is undoubtedly a good thing for the development of basketball, just like table tennis and badminton, which should be the most convenient and popular sports for all people in the world, are slowly becoming more and more negative. A country Domination really hinders the development of this sport, and other countries won't play with you! The promotion of a sport is often promoted from the upper level of the country in order to be popularized smoothly. It is the same in any country. Just like the national football, the domestic leaders like football, and the national football still lives very well, even if they are bad.
Although Sun Ce didn't expect that playing basketball would involve American hegemony... but it's pretty cool!
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Sun Ce has no other ability, just playing basketball, but can affect some things, and has a positive role in promoting basketball development, he will definitely be more motivated.
In addition, this finals is meaningful if it is said to be meaningful, and it is of great significance at the moment.
If the Bulls ended the Grizzlies’ two consecutive championships and did not allow Sun Ce to immediately win the fifth championship, even if Sun Ce leads Jordan in other areas, it will be difficult to surpass Jordan immediately. They can only continue to stand shoulder to shoulder with Jordan, and the Bulls can still have it. The glory of the of basketball.
Although it is only a matter of time for the 27-year-old Sun Ce to surpass Jordan, it is obviously very important for the Bulls fans to push the time for Sun Ce to surpass himself.
Sun Ce wants to truly become a unique basketball god. The creation of a dynasty is the most direct. Otherwise, he can only hit the number of championships... Maybe he created a dynasty. Before he won the sixth championship, there are still Bulls fans who are not convinced, but as long as there is Dynasty, it's useless for Bulls fans to disagree!
In the case of media hype, and there are indeed conditions for hype, the significance of this finals is that it is unparalleled by the media! Although the fact that the Grizzlies won the Finals and will establish a dynasty is enough to excite the fans, the enthusiasm of the fans has been extremely high. Even the Lakers fans support the Grizzlies. After all, Jordan has been in that position for almost 20 years. Now, it’s time for a substitution, and there are fans who can surpass Jordan. All non-Jordan and non-Bulls fans are excited. If Jordan can never surpass, that kind of situation will make fans feel desperate, although Sun Ce is better than Jordan. Stronger, but can appear stronger, it is possible to appear stronger, for fans, this is definitely better than Jordan can never surpass!
The feedback from Fulian 3 is very good. It’s been a long time since such a popular movie of "square camp" group annihilation appeared. After the filming of Fulian 4 received positive feedback on the premiere day, preparations have begun. All participating performances will be assembled at the end of the month. The actors of the movie are still the same. Sun Ce’s shots are filmed first. Sun Ce’s preparations for the reunion 3 directors are not worried at all. Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Chris Evans... these acting skills The best old actors, after Sun Ce enters the role state, can dominate them in terms of acting and aura.
First play with Sun Ce. Others get into the state under the pressure of playing with Sun Ce. The director team of Fulian 3 made this idea, although at first it was because Sun Ce didn't have time to shoot for too long.
Ever since, during the time when Avengers League 3 was released, basketball fans were ridiculing--the singers all said that Sun Ce should be a singer by nature, and film directors all said that Sun Ce should be a film and television superstar by nature, and Sun Ce was initially involved in those industries and got such an evaluation, but in terms of playing basketball, Sun Ce didn't have the team to want at first!
Sure enough, Sun Ce's talent for playing basketball is the worst of all his talents.
As the film was about to start shooting, Disney was going to get a wave of enthusiasm first, so Sun Ce was forced to lick his face to ask the Bulls for tickets.
Originally, Sun Ce thought it would be too much to ask for a dozen tickets. The Bulls boss has always been stubborn in these aspects, but he didn't expect the other party to give it very happy! Sun Ce wondered, the Bulls boss has turned his temper?
Anyway, I saved a lot of money, and it’s a lot of money. Even if you find the Bulls to buy the original tickets, a dozen front row tickets will cost 400,000 yuan. It is even more difficult to find the scalpers. The Bulls’ front row tickets at home are sold. Few, most of them have to give away. For example, the former U.S. President’s Holy Gun finally has time to watch the finals. The Bulls and Grizzlies both have tickets.
After saving a fortune, Sun Ce was a little happy...
The two days of preparation time passed very quickly. The two teams played too many times and knew each other too much. Although the Bulls had more Wade, the overall play did not change. The pick-and-roll was the basis. Sun Ce felt that the Bulls signed Wei. The biggest goal of Germany is not how much Wade can improve them, but to allow Rose to get more rest time. This season, Rose only played 32 minutes per game and Griffin averaged only 35 minutes per game. Wade and The pick-and-rolls of Lopez Jr. and Gibson are the reason for the strong rotation of the Bulls. They continue the starting lineup. Wade is a fake starter most of the time...
The preparation for the war is very targeted, and it is difficult to say whether it will be effective or not. Anyway, knowing how to prevent it is just a question of whether it can be done.
Soon, on June 5th, after the preparations in the morning, we will rest in the afternoon. After warming up in the evening, the finals will begin.
Looking at the activation list tonight, his grandson, Brogdon, Klay Thompson, Carter, Paul George, Jaylen Brown, Aldridge, Yi Jianlian, Je Michael Green, David West , Gobert, Gion, Tony Allen... the lineup looks very neat.
The teammates are more or less troubled by injuries or physical strength. Klay Thompson and Gion have not played for more than half a month. The state of the game is unknown... But at least the lineup is neat!
On the other side, on the home team training ground, Rose and Griffin want to scold the streets-why are players missing when playing Curry and Durant, and Conley and Butler, but they are all in order when playing their Bulls?
Fortunately, their Bulls lineup is also neat.
Rose looked at his teammates who activated the roster tonight.
They are both evil, Wade, Ariza, Jr. Lopez, McDermott, Mirotic, Trevor Booker, Gibson, McAway, Bobby Portis, Jerian Grant Payne.
With strong soldiers and strong positions, each position can be rotated by three people. Among them, there are a bunch of good defenders on the front line!
For the Bulls, this year is the best chance to win the championship, with home court advantage in hand and good health; for the Grizzlies, it is a must-have opportunity to create a dynasty.
On both sides, the fighting spirit is high!
Around 5 o'clock in the evening, the two teams started to warm up. By 7:30 in the evening, the players of the two teams entered the court!
...
"Chairman Yao, you are really free, why do you have so much time to watch the game?"
"The World Cup is set for 19 years. It is staggered from next year's Football World Cup. There is no qualifying game this year. Only the Asian Cup. We have no big problem. You and the Arab League will not play. We should also be able to make the top 4, and just make the top 4. Yes, you can enter the top 4 to participate in next year’s qualifying round. If you can get the championship and runner-up, you don’t need to play in the qualifying round. In fact, we can also defeat the qualifying round at the fifth place...
Listening to Yao Ming’s bitter words, Sun Ce didn’t know what to say. At present, the domestic players are not picking up, and Yao Ming dared to make the decision not to recruit Yi Jianlian. He was under great pressure. Indeed, let alone Sun Ce, Yi Jianlian and the national team. The gap between teammates' strengths is too huge. One is the NBA's weak team starting, the strong team's rotation level, and the others are the NBA Summer League... They are all boring levels. Let Yi Jianlian participate in those low-level games, affirm the ball and shot rights. It's all on Yi Jianlian. Yi Jianlian is tired, and it is not good for other people's growth.
Thanks to the results of the past World Wars, Yao Ming’s pressure to make this decision was less, and he was ready to fight in two lines. He recruited 30 players and divided them into two teams to participate in the Asian Cup of Basketball and In the invitational tournaments of Eastern European countries, when the league schedule is difficult to extend and progress is slow, first increase the national team games, so that young players with potential and emerging in the CBA can get more exercise.
While Sun Ce and Yao Ming were chatting here, the MVP award ceremony was taking place on the court.
The Bulls also worked hard to boost morale. After Griffin won the MVP, Griffin discussed with the coaching staff and Rose and decided not to hold the MVP award ceremony in the second round, but to wait until the finals! By means of the MVP trophy, the enthusiasm of the fans at the scene was driven and the morale of the whole team was promoted.
Sun Ce quite admired Griffin, training hard, playing with passion, and courage in this regard. If the Bulls did not reach the finals, Griffin's operation would definitely become a laughing stock.
But they did it!
However, Griffin's operation can only boost the morale of the Bulls players, and can only make the fans on the scene more enthusiastic, and has little impact on the Grizzlies players.
MVP awards... Learn about MVP 5 times in 7 years?
With the Bulls doing their utmost to improve morale and increase confidence, the two teams started to play at 7:58 pm!
Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Aldridge, Gobert, the Grizzlies, the five-man group considered by many fans as "the strongest starter in history", made their debut again after nearly three weeks!
On the Bulls side, Rose, Wade, Ariza, Griffin, and Lopez Jr. are all famous stars. Even Jr. Lopez is estimated to get an annual salary of more than $15 million during the offseason. .
In this era of skyrocketing salaries, if it were not for the purpose of staying with the Bulls to try to make another championship, and to experience the wonderful feeling of winning the Grizzlies that year, he could completely accept the tens of millions of annual salary given by the Lakers last summer, but this season He averaged 8.6 points, 8.8 rebounds, 0.6 steals and 1.6 blocks per game. He is estimated to be able to get 80 million.
Looking at the new era basketball who seems to just want to play well in the basketball field and doesn't care about the position of the boss on the opposite side, Rose's heart is a bit bitter-I have begun to think about transitioning to the floor flow, and you are still a teenager... …
Why does Rose want to fight to the end whenever he has a chance?
It’s not because the guy on the opposite side is too strong, forget it. Although in theory, 28 years old is the peak of athletic ability and technology, but generally speaking, 25 to 26 years old is the peak of athletic ability At the moment, it’s just that at the age of 28 and 29, they are still at the peak of athletic ability, but compared to the age of 25 and 26, they must have declined. Rose is now at the peak of athletic ability and is ready to transform. But Sun Ce and Rose are frightened. It was discovered that Sun Ce's athletic ability seemed to be improving! Actually won the slam dunk contest this year! It's unreasonable.
Ross does not believe that the media and the so-called experts say that Sun Ce will become an ordinary superstar after his 30-year-old peak period, so he wants to seize every opportunity, every opportunity that appears, he will fight to the end!
...
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Grizzlies and Bulls finals opener began.
This time, the Bulls took the initiative!
Not to mention, Klay Thompson and Gion came back after a long break and went straight to the starting lineup. The Grizzlies showed their strength at the start, not as good as they were absent! Klay Thompson made 0 of 4 three-pointers in the first quarter...
But coach Hollins insisted on letting the two play more, and there are many things to consider. First of all, the two have to reintegrate into the team. This is very smooth, especially Klay Thompson, who runs according to the position of teammates and the movement of the ball. The ability is still excellent. The second is that the two need to find their form. Gion’s defensive footing is obviously affected, while Klay Thompson is not able to shoot open shots, so he needs to shoot more in the game. This is difficult to complete in training. .
In addition, if Klay Thompson played less time, Brogdon, Carter, and Jaylen Brown would have to play longer and the pressure would be on the bench. Paul- George is already troubled by injuries and will play harder; on the inside, Gobert is also troubled by his strength. Aldridge is already difficult enough to deal with Griffin, and Jean is a very important substitute...
One game or two can pass on pressure, but the opponent is much stronger than the Jazz. Once you choose to pass on the pressure, you are likely to fall into a vicious circle, and Klay Thompson and Gion will be slower to regain their status... Let the two play more at the beginning, in order to avoid getting injured again, most of the first game, the Grizzlies followed the tactics.
In this regard, Sun Ce and others also gave coach Hollins the most steadfast support. After so many finals, they have already learned what unity is, even if it is wrong, since the decision is made, everyone will work together, not to mention No matter how you think about this strategy, you can't be wrong.
As for the Bulls, they only finished the Eastern Conference on the 1st. They had a shorter rest period than the Grizzlies, but they had shorter periods of non-playing. They entered team status earlier. The Grizzlies were killed from the beginning tonight. Dead suppressed.
Finally, at the end of the third quarter, Sun Ce used the stamina potion and scored 13 consecutive high and low back flip jumpers or hooks. At one point, he led the score by one point, 79 to 78, but by the end, the overall performance was better. The Bulls once again regained the lead, and when Sun Ce tried to do another wave of his life, they used the strategy of double double-teaming without the ball, double double-teaming with the ball + close range, and rim containment strategies to contain Sun Ce. ...
In the end, relying on Rose’s 23 points and 8 assists, Griffin’s 18 points and 14 rebounds, Jr. Lopez’s 12 points and 10 rebounds, Wade’s 14 points and 4 assists... the Bulls narrowly beat the Grizzlies 105-99. Won the first victory in the finals!
When the final whistle sounded, Rose heard the crazy cheers of the fans and saw some old fans crying... Rose couldn't help but his eyes were red. The same expression was also in the Bulls in the previous two seasons. The players of the team.
too difficult! It's really hard! Although it was only one game, they had never beaten the Grizzlies in the playoffs in the history of the Bulls~EbookFREE.me~ The two finals were swept away!
This time, the ice is finally broken! For the first time in team history, the Bulls beat the Grizzlies in the playoffs! Although, it's just a game!
Sun Ce, who scored 37 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 blocks, and 2 steals, is a bit regretful. If he makes a strong shot in the final quarter, they have a chance to win.
But there was no way, the opponent's defense was too hard, every ball must be contested, Gibson plunged into the cameraman's pile when he saved a ball, his eyebrows were knocked out, but the Bulls snatched it back by Trevor Bou The backcourt ball hit by Kr when he grabbed the rebound prevented the Grizzlies from getting another offensive opportunity...
Wade led the bench lineup to play an advantage, the starting lineup smashed Sun Ce, everyone went all out...The Bulls are relying on every ball to care about the details, every attack and defense are doing their best, the Bulls can be the first in Sun Ce In the third quarter, after a 13-4 shock wave in 5 rounds, the situation can be restored.
In addition, the coaching staff worked hard to increase the confidence of the players. Griffin risked becoming a laughing stock and claimed that he would receive the MVP trophy in the finals to improve the morale of the team... etc. etc. The Bulls did enough for this victory. Preparations, even a lot of "excessive" preparations.
Finally, after so much effort, they finally defeated the Grizzlies!
This is a qualitative change from zero to one!
If the Bulls did not win this game, the preparations they had made before would be counterproductive. Morale collapses are trivial matters, and loss of confidence is the most terrible.
But they did it! They finally won the Grizzlies, one for two! And it was the first game to win, the confidence of the Bulls players skyrocketed again!
