Vol 2 Chapter 345: Secret weapons and playoffs!

April 20, 2007, Seattle Supersonic Training Center.
After a day off, Yers and the supersonic players returned to the team.
Compared with the previous frustration and tension, after a day of rest, the supersonic players' emotions relaxed a lot.
In addition, everyone's face was full of expectations.
Before the holiday, the team's head coach Nielsen's "psychological battle" against Nowitzki made everyone imagine.
Does Old Nielsen really feel that there is hope for supersonic?
Public opinion in the United States is now sweeping, definitely sweeping!
If this round of series can play five games, God will cry!
This is the gap between Mavericks and Supersonics.
The gap is like this. If it weren't for the chance to win, how could old Nielsen uselessly play some psychological tactics.
The average head coach really does this, and the supersonic players will not believe it, and will only feel silly, like an idiot.
There will be no incentive.
But this man is old Nielsen, that's different.
Old Nelson is the most prestigious person in the NBA now!
Even one can be removed!
In 1962, Old Nelson entered the NBA and was selected by the Chicago Westwinds and then the Washington Wizards with the 17th pick.
Old Nielsen was valued by the Celtics head coach Cardinal Auerbach after spending three seasons with the Chicago Westwind and the Los Angeles Lakers and came to the Celtics.
At the Celtics, Old Nelson spent 11 years and won five championships.
In the seventh game against the Lakers in the 1969 Finals, he made the winning shot at the last moment, leaving the championship in Boston, and also killing Jerry West like a god.
After the Celtics retired, Old Nelson's No. 19 jersey was retired by the Celtics.
At the Celtics, Old Nelson won more than just five championships and huge player reputation.
At the Celtics, Old Nelson also learned a set of tactical systems that changed his life, running and bombing systems, next to Cardinal Auerbach!
In the current NBA, when referring to Auerbach, you will think of iron blood and defense.
This is the label that Auerbach poured out with his constant championship.
Godfather, master defensive!
But before the Cardinals won the championship?
Compared with the iron-blood godfather and defensive master.
Auerbach is actually more offensive master.
The pursuit of the ultimate speed, passing is always faster than dribbling, these are proposed by Auerbach.
Even the old Nielsen has been criticized for his lack of defense and rebounds in the past few years. The regular season is hot and the playoffs are weak. It is the evaluation of the Celtics and Auerbach led by Cousy.
It can be said that Old Nelson is the successor of Auerbach's heirs!
Those who really accepted the true biography of Auerbach!
Bielsel, Tom Heinsohn, Tom Sanders, Dave Cowens, KC-Jones are even more true to Auerbach.
Auerbach was very lucky to meet Russell as a master of running and bombing.
Since then, Russell's defense combined with the Cardinals' running has made the greatest legend in NBA history.
This legend created a great team and a great head coach.
Old Nelson, never encountered a Russell belonging to him in his career.
Therefore, as a disciple of the true story of the Cardinals, Old Nelson never won a championship in his coaching career.
Old Nielsen's achievements in the coaching field are very different from his teacher Cardinal.
However, this is only compared with the cardinal.
In 1976, Old Nielsen became the Bucks' head coach, when the Bucks lost Jabal and was left unused.
Old Nelson built the Nelson System, which is now regarded as the ancestor of the bucks, and also turned the bucks who lost Jabal into a strong team.
Leaving the Bucks in 1987, he came to the Warriors, followed by Tim Hardaway, Mickey Richmond, and Chris Mullin as the core of the Washing Union's "RunTMC".
Old Nielsen then came to the Mavericks, making the Mavericks a strong team with far-reaching influence.
Now the head coach of the Mavericks is Johnson, but the world knows that old Nelson is the one who really builds this Mavericks!
It's funny to say, the crazier the Mavericks have performed this season, the higher the reputation of Old Nelson.
In the history of the NBA, there are very few head coaches like Old Nelson who mainly build players.
It was because of sparseness, because of its uniqueness, and in the end that it all succeeded, so old Nielsen would have such a high reputation.
It is precisely because Old Nelson is the head coach of this type, the supersonic players are also willing to believe that he really has a secret weapon against the Mavericks.
Knowing oneself and knowing the other is a battle, old Nielsen is definitely the best person in the world who knows Mavericks!
If even old Nielsen had no way to beat the Mavericks at supersonic speed, then there would be no one else in the world who could do this.
Even Yers, although he has been thinking about whether old Nelson ’s psychological war against Nowitzki is to motivate them, is there really a way?
In the end, Yeez chose to believe that Old Nelson really had a way.
In the supersonic training hall, supersonic players now look at Old Nelson's eyes quite hot.
The scorching Scott Brooks shivered a little.
Scott Brooks, like these supersonic players, he is also looking forward to what old Nielsen can come up with to deal with the Mavericks.
But compared with the supersonic players are all expected.
Scott Brooks was a little scared.
I'm really scared!
What if Elder Nelson couldn't help it?
Smashing your own brand is still small, the key is to lose the trust of the team players!
Scott Brooks believed in old Nelson.
He is the league's greatest team-building coach and one of the league's greatest wise men.
This crazy scientist has solved too many problems for supersonics this season.
Milicic's power forward play, Rondo's inside play, the team's dumping system and so on.
Supersonic This season these classic tactics and style of play have a strong old Nelson style.
It can be said that as long as the team has difficulties, old Nelson can solve the difficulties for the team.
But this time, the team's difficulties are really a bit big.
That's a Maverick!
Today the United States and major media in the United States believe that the league is the most balanced and perfect team!
No disadvantages!
There are no disadvantages!
Offense, defense, bench, this team is unassailable!
At the very least, in terms of supersonic strength, this team is an impeccable team.
If it were n’t for a lot of controversy on the finals last year, the Mavericks are actually the defending champions of the league!
Compared with the Heat, the Mavericks are the perfect defending champion!
Such a team, even if the head coach is even better?
Even if Old Nelson really has a way, can they implement Old Nelson's method on the strength of the supersonic team?
This is also a big problem!
Uneasy, very uneasy in my heart!
Scott Brooks was waiting for Old Nielsen's instructions.
"Scott, today we have a confrontation exercise."
Against practice? !
Not explaining the Mavericks ’weaknesses? !
Isn't it training for the Mavericks' weaknesses?
Scott Brooks was puzzled.
Especially after getting the list of this group confrontation from Old Nielsen, Brooks's puzzles have been completely written on his face!
"Pj Tucker and Yes in a group ?!"
Nick Collison, PJ Tucker, Quentin Richardson, Yes, Rondo VS Barria, Wilkins, Millsap, David Lee, Milicic!
Is this lineup of the Yes team the lineup playing against the Mavericks? !
real or fake? !
No wonder Scott Brooks is dull now.
This group is really shocking!
Milicic is the team's second-best player. In addition to Yes, Milicic is the most powerful.
Milicic is now on the bench?
Is this going to let Yes be caught dead?
Opponents have been afraid of framing Yes in the regular season this season. In addition to fearing the first pass and organization ability in the history of Yes, Milicic can indeed open up space for Yes.
Now Milicic and David Lee are gone.
Nick Riccison and PJ Tucker plus Rondo.
The first appearance of these three people is tantamount to announcing to the whole world that you should come and pack Yes, you pack Yes, and no one else has attacked!
"PJ, Nick, have you started?"
The supersonic players waiting for old Nelson to have any secret weapons are equally shocked after seeing the list of this group confrontation!
Dakota shorted Lee into the second group, pj and Nick into the starting, what is coach Nelson playing?
Even Rondo, who has always watched Milicic's "three-headed" team, is very uncomfortable now.
The second lord did not like this guy Milicic, but I have to admit that although Milicic is compared with the second lord.
But even if Milicic is rubbish, Nick Collison is not comparable!
In addition, although David Lee is a data brush, the data brush must first brush the data!
How can Tucker Hede replace Short Lee?
Short Lee can still get the data anyway on the field, Tucker is the fifth person to disappear on the field!
Except playing and disappearing on the field, Tucker Mao is useless!
Compared with the Mavericks, the supersonic speed is already very weak.
Is this the rhythm of preparation for a weaker position?
As far as supersonic strength is concerned, the strongest are the five starters, Milicic, David Lee, Quentin Richardson, Yes and Rondo.
Even if the old Nielsen can find the Mavericks' weaknesses, I am afraid that these five people can execute.
Even if they can't find the Mavericks' weaknesses, these five can make the supersonic loss not so ugly.
At the very least, I won't lose 58 points!
Puzzled!
confused!
Now the supersonic players are full of puzzles and confusion.
"This team's Yes team is not a starter for the Mavericks."
The supersonic players in confusion and confusion are finally relieved.
But soon, they did not wait for them to put their hearts down completely, and the words of old Nelson made them nervous again.
"Although the Yes team is not a Mavericks starter, I will re-evaluate the Mavericks starting lineup based on the performance of this group against you."
The team's head coach reassessed the starting lineup, which is an opportunity for the substitute players to make people happy and happy.
But at this time, whether it is Baria, Millsap, Wilkins, these substitutes or Nick Collison, the main player in this game, can't be happy.
They don't want such an opportunity!
They know their strength too well.
Now when they meet the Mavericks, they give it away.
They don't want to ruin Yes' efforts this season for the so-called starting opportunity!
Do they want to start?
Of course I want!
Every player who plays in the NBA wants to start.
But they want to start if they can help Yes!
After being moved out of the team, the expressions on the faces of Milicic and David Lee were also surprised and confused, but other than that, they had no other ideas.
As long as it is beneficial to the team, they are willing to accept the position of the team substitute.
Supersonic players' current performance, assistant coach Brooks, is all in the eyes.
Players who mention the starting line are not willing to accept, but the players who put on the bench are willing to accept.
This is really a wonder!
If placed on other NBA teams, this is almost impossible.
It can only be said that the supersonic cohesion is too strong!
Brooks looked at Yes, who had been frowning and silent.
The supersonic speed can have the cohesion now, really because of Yes!
With the exception of Danny Fordson, LaFrenz, and Swift lying on the hospital bed, all supersonic players now put the team's interests ahead of their personal interests!
The supersonic training hall is very noisy now, this group training is really scary.
Whether it's a starter or a substitute, I'm worried.
Tucker, who has been practicing small defense with Maricross, is still blinded!
Three points are weak, two points are not good, the ball is not good, the speed is average, there is no decent advantage, it is him, how did he start suddenly?
And, did he replace David Lee?
In other words, is he playing power forward?
Power Forward?
Face Nowitzki!
This season David Lee and Millsap's misery against Nowitzki is really vivid!
Coach Nelson is going to take him to death, please Nowitzki to let the Mavericks win the Supersonic less?
In addition to this possibility, Tucker really can not find any possibility!
Not to mention the supersonic players, even a lot of reporters or undercovers who are allowed to come in around the training ground are dumbfounded.
Old Nielsen and the Supersonics, are you ready to give up? !
"This supersonic internal competition is terrible!"
"It's really bad. Tuck and Rondo and Nick Collison and Yes are in the team. This is a suicide lineup. If you want to attack, you don't have to attack, you have to defend and you don't defend, let alone the Mavericks, even the Blazers can't win! "
"The supersonic second team also did not perform well. Milicic left Yes and did not know how to play!"
"After the season, Milicic's rookie contract expired. Those who are interested in Milicic need to reconsider. Even if they get Milicic, there is no Yes, parallel imports or parallel imports!"
"However, what exactly is Nielsen preparing to do? It really surrendered, so the crazy scientist model was turned on?"
"I don't know, but Old Nielsen is not satisfied with himself, and his dark face deliberately left Tucker and Milicic, who had the worst performance in this practice match, to stay."
"Old Nelson is ready to spray Milicic and Tucker? The long-lost old Nelson-style hair dryer, old Nelson rarely blows when he comes to supersonic speed."
"Do you want to stay and watch old Nelson spray on Tucker and Milicic?"
"Forget it, now news is the most important! The world is looking forward to Yes and supersonic news!"
"Compared to Yes, Milicic and Tucker are just minor characters in this series."
Dallas, Mavericks training facility.
As the No. 1 team in the West and a completely optimistic team, the Mavericks' preparation for the playoffs is simple and easy.
The team is open and there are no secrets.
While the players are training, they can also be interviewed by the American media. Why not do it.
It may make people feel sad.
The Mavericks performed so well this season in the regular season.
The degree of attention received is not even half of it!
They are already the first in the West!
Attention has finally reached the first standard in the west.
This is not because the media feel that they really need to be paid attention, after all, it is the first in the West.
But because their opponent is Yes!
The opponent is Yes than they are the first in the West, and the first brand in the league is easier to use!
"Dirk, I learned from the reporters that Coach Nielsen has now abandoned himself!"
"Abandon yourself?"
"Coach Nielsen was actually preparing for Tucker to start the power forward. It seems that Dirk cast a psychological shadow on David Lee and Millsap!"
Nowitzki, who had some surprises, also smiled.
The two supersonic power forwards, David Lee and Millsap are his two favorite opponents in the league.
These two people can be called his ATM for short!
Tucker?
Is that the fifth person who is shorter than David Lee, slower than Wilkins and thinner than Milicic?
By the way, he will also shine shoes to Yes, the shoe king of Seattle.
Can be considered famous.
By the side of Yes, even Tucker can get the reputation of a quasi-all-star player.
In the Mavericks, except for a few people like Josh Howard and Terry, no one can match Tucker in fame.
Are you annoying?
If the NBA's game is determined by fame, maybe the Supersonics can sweep the Mavericks.
It is a pity that the game of the NBA is ultimately determined by strength!
April 22!
Two days left!
The tanks from Germany, the artillery is already hungry and unbearable!
No matter whether it is David Lee or Millsap, Yang or Tucker that is in front of the cannon, it is all broken!
Nellie, this is the perfect attack!
On April 21, 2007, the NBA playoffs officially started!
The opening game of this year's playoffs is the fourth bull in the East against the defending champion Heat in the fifth in the East.
The opening game of this year's regular season is also the Bulls and Heat. In the NBA opener this year, the Bulls sent a 40-point massacre to the proud defending champion!
But this time, the Bulls failed to reproduce the brutality of the regular season opener.
96 to 91, the Chicago Bulls beat the Heat at home.
O'Neal, who died a regular season in the regular season, scared the Bulls out of the fourth quarter. In the single game, 5 out of 6 scored 10 points. In addition to being slower, O'Neal vaguely saw that invincible in the face of Big Ben Figure.
But compared with O'Neal when he was invincible, O'Neal is really not as strong now.
Even if the match is unbeatable in the fourth quarter, it will never kill anyone.
The lethality is gone!
5 out of 6 in a single quarter is brutal, but a 0 free throw in a single quarter is also very realistic!
Now O'Neal can't make the other party pay the price.
It is precisely because of this, because you are the defending champion, Wade's heat is considered by most experts in the United States. The first round will be eliminated by the Bulls within six games.
The second game on the first day of the playoffs was the Celtics first in the East against the Orlando Magic in the eighth.
92 to 105, Magic knelt very crisply.
Howard scored 13 points, 19 rebounds and 3 blocks in the first playoff game of his career.
At the same time, he also sent 6 turnovers, which contributed 3 blocks and 3 steals for Garnett.
In this game, Kendrick Perkins and Garnett's inside combination of one person and one defense made Howard submissive.
This round of the Celtics and Magic is also the second series in addition to the Mavericks and Supersonics series, which is considered by most experts to be magic.
Today's third game is the fifth San Antonio Spurs in the west against the Jazz.
75 to 85!
A wonderful defensive battle.
Under the Spurs' defense, the Jazz's shooting percentage is only 36%, the three-point shooting rate is 24%, the Spurs are similar here, the shooting rate is 39%, the three-point shooting rate is 33%.
The difference is that the Spurs have Duncan!
With 28 points and 13 rebounds, Duncan continued the good state of the regular season sprint.
Compared with the already hot veterans of the Spurs, the Jazz seem to have not entered the playoff rhythm.
After all, the Jazz are the only team in the Western Conference quarterfinals that has not sprinted and has been watching the sea.
But at the end of the jazz and spurs game, yesi can clearly see that victoria's face on TV has no joy.
Being out too early is not good for any team aspiring to win the championship, especially this team is still dominated by veterans!
To leave the state prematurely will usher in a period of fatigue prematurely.
Vicky couldn't control it, and he wanted to take it away.
But he can't do it. The Spurs sprinted for so long at the end of the season. His team needs to rest and need to solve their opponents early!
The Spurs are in perfect shape, the Jazz have not entered the state, the Spurs have only won 10 points.
This victory is not just a victory, but also a crisis!
Even if the Jazz can't win the Spurs, dragging the Spurs for six games and seven games is a big defeat for the Spurs.
Experts predict that the Spurs will win this series, but they need to play at least six games!
The finale on the first day of the playoffs was the third Wizards of the East against the sixth Cavaliers in the East.
These two teams are also considered the enemy.
The two teams met in the first round last season.
James achieved a key victory in eliminating the Wizards with a controversial walking lore.
The son of heaven, lore, last year's James scenery is infinite.
Things have changed dramatically this year.
Yers really never thought that the snake-playing tactic he made would eventually be used against James.
He really didn't think about it. James's unfavorable tank breakthrough actually appeared in an inconvenient situation because of the alliance's hard work.
When the tank fell into the quagmire, and there was no barrel, there was really only a sturdy steel.
Can only be slaughtered.
Now James and Cavaliers are like this.
If it weren't for the Cavaliers' first half schedule, the Eastern Conference team was indeed useless.
If it is in the West, James and Cavaliers are not in the playoffs, it is estimated that they can compete with the Trail Blazers in the top five picks.
Even for Eastern reasons, they luckily entered the playoffs.
The first game with the Wizards, facing the Wizards of crazy revenge.
The Cavaliers lost 89-99 away.
In the face of the healthy Wizards of the entire lineup, the three-shot Wizards composed of Arenas, Antoine Jamison, and Caron Butler, there is really no way for the difficult knight.
Watching the dazzling score on the sidelines.
James' face was very ugly.
He just wants to hurry up this shameful season now.
He just wants to enter the offseason early now!
He wanted to pick up all the time he had wasted!
This is not the back of the fate!
Looked at the back of No. 23 on TV.
Ye Si nodded slightly.
For the Cavaliers and Wizards series, experts predict that the Wizards will solve the battle in six games.
But judging from this game, I'm afraid I can't use six games.
After watching the game between Cavaliers and Wizards, Yers and the Supersonics boarded the plane to Dallas.
Over the past two days, the Supersonics have been doing confrontation training, and old Nielsen has also been staying for the sake of Tak and Milicic.
After being blown by the old Nelson for two days, Tucker and Milicic didn't see any frustration and discomfort.
This made the supersonic up and down a bit unexpected.
Even Yes was surprised.
Do Milicic and Tuck still have that strange hobby?
The supersonics are looking forward to the old Nelson can come up with a way to deal with the Mavericks.
But in these two days, the old Nielsen had to find Milicic and Tucker for stubborn reasons.
Now the public opinion in the United States is the news that the madness of the old Nielsen mad scientist has come up again.
Very frustrating.
April 22, 2007.
The second day of the NBA playoffs.
Today's first game is the Pistons second in the East against the Nets seventh in the East.
After the Nets fell apart by Rondo and the Kickoff Conference, they were lucky to enter the playoffs because of being in the East.
87 to 97.
This game proves that the collapsed Nets really collapsed!
Kidd and Carter are clearly absent.
In the second game, the second Sun in the west faced the seventh Lakers in the west.
This is a focus war.
The Suns have an absolute advantage, but the Lakers have won the Suns this season!
So many experts believe that the sun needs more than five games even if it can win.
87 to 95!
The two teams have just played a regular season of playoff intensity, and the pace of this game is almost exactly the same as that regular season!
The Lakers still have a hard time defending the Suns.
In this game, Kobe is not only on the defensive end, but also on the offensive end.
He scored 39 points on 15 of 33 shots.
But the same thing is the Lakers still lost!
Kobe Bryant had only one assist in this game.
"Is the Rocket so strong this year?"
On the second day of the playoffs, the Supersonics watched the game between the Western Third Rockets and Western Sixth Nuggets in the locker room of the American Airlines Center.
95 to 110!
Yao Ming, Zhu Wan Howard, McGrady, Ariza, Roy ...
This rocket looks terrible and powerful!
Roy sent 25 + 5 + 5 in the first playoff game of his career.
Yao Ming, Tracy McGrady, Roy and the three of them scored a total of 81 points in this game!
"The Rockets are still the weakest of the three Western Gods!"
The supersonic players in the locker room were really dumbfounded when watching the Nuggets on TV.
In this game, they have to face the No. 1 Mavericks in the Western Conference!
The Mavericks are more brutal than the Rockets!
April 22, 2007, American Airlines Center in Dallas!
The American Airlines Center is one of the best-occupied stadiums in the NBA.
But as early as today, it was full, and it was amazing.
"The Mavericks and Supersonics are the group with the largest gap between strength and weakness in all the first rounds!"
"The Mavericks vs. Supersonic showdown is also the most watched group!"
"It looks contradictory, but it is true!"
"The supersonic game's ratings in the regular season, many experts predict that this game will be the game with the highest ratings in the playoffs this year!"
Will the most watched game in the playoffs be in the first game of the first round?
No one would believe this kind of thing before.
But now, no one doubts.
Because this game is the first playoff of Yes career!
Similarly, this round of series may also be the only round of series that Yes plays!
And this is why many people want supersonics to become stronger.
It's about too many interests.
Broadcasters, newspapers, media, journalists, experts, and even alliances.
The farther Yes can go in the playoffs, the more they can earn.
It is also the reason why the public opinion of the United States has dealt with Rondo this season with the standard of killing father and enemies!
Rondo, Millsap, Barria ...
The economic losses caused by these garbage are in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
Selling these garbage a hundred times will not make up for these losses.
But it's too late to say this now.
Even the supersonic coach Nielsen seems to have been infected by the rubbish.
Also opened the pit Yes button!
Put Tucker on the starting line?
This is because I think Yes was not swept away by sweeping. I plan to let Yes be ravaged by Nowitzki's more than two hundred pounds before being swept away!
Buckley is very worried now.
Yes, this season is a pit!
He is no longer worried about Yes being swept away and regrets it. His biggest expectation now is not to be scored by the Mavericks by 58 points!
Otherwise, it's really funny.
Now there are signs that Nowitzki and the Mavericks are really ready to play against the supersonics and Yes!
"Kenny ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Do you think this is the old Nielsen smoke bomb?"
"smoke bomb?"
Kenny Smith's expression is you stupid.
In terms of supersonic and Maverick strength comparison, is it necessary to use Tucker as a smoke bomb?
Barkley was also embarrassed by the look in Kenny Smith's eyes.
Soon, listening to the voice from the headset, the fear on Buckley's face had turned into a fright.
The frightened Buckley even stood up directly from his seat!
"Milisic, Tucker, Quentin Richardson, Yes, Rondo ?!"
"The supersonic starting power forward in this game is really PJ Tucker ?!"
Seeing the supersonic starting lineup, there was an uproar inside and outside the stadium!
