Chapter 347: East-West finals not quite the same as in previous years

The list of the best defensive lineup in the nba13-14 season is as follows.
Best defense for a while: guards Jeremy Lin, Chris Paul, forward Leonard, Serge Ibaka, center Dunn.
Best defensive second team: guards Mike Conley, Klay Thompson, forward Drummond Green, Tim Duncan, center Rudy Gobert.
If Thompson and Leonard were selected as the best defensive lineup, and Green's selection as the best defensive lineup can be considered reasonable, then Rudy Gobert's selection of the best defensive second team has surprised many people.
Although there are no enough strong centers in today's league, there are many defensive blue-collar centers with good strength.
Despite the Thunder’s use of Mutombo’s growth template card, Dunn, the league still has Howard, Noah, Jordan, Whiteside and other defensive ability and guards are not bad.
Comparing the data, Howard averaged 18 points, 12 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game this season.
Joe King Noah averaged 12.6 points, 11.3 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.5 blocks per game.
As for the other two veterans of the Wizards, Jordan Jr. averaged 14 points, 13.6 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game, while Whiteside averaged 17 points, 14.3 rebounds and 3.7 blocks per game.
There are no exceptions for a few people, all of them can win the double-double average.
Gobert, who won the honor of best defensive second team, averaged only 28 minutes in the regular season this season, averaging 8.3 points, 9.2 rebounds and 2.3 blocks.
This data is already very good for a first-year rookie, but it is still worse than Howard and others.
But the quota of the best defensive second center is still given to Gobert, because Gobel's defensive role is not reflected in pure data.
The votes for the best lineup and the best defensive lineup are all journalists from the authoritative media in the United States. They have been registering for sports and basketball for many years. Naturally, they are not people who do not understand the ball. They can easily find out by simple comparison. What makes Gobert different.
The Wizards of last season, although the defense is also very strong, but once the opponent breaks through the iron defense like the outside and rushes into the inside, then the efficiency of scoring will increase linearly. Whiteside last season, although the field has nearly 3 blocked Covered in accounts, the internal defense and supplementary defense work is not particularly good.
In contrast, this season's new Gobert has done very well. Although he does not have the gorgeous block data of Whiteside, he is often squeezed by other insiders because of lack of strength, which can be reflected in the real data. Gobel's defensive success rate at the basket ranks second in the league, second only to the Thunder's Dunn, even Howard, Jordan Jr., Joakim Noah and other defensive fighters.
Defending is not just blocking the opponent's shot, as long as the opponent can't shoot, it is a successful defense.
Gobert clearly did this well, and was also seen by many interested people, so he became the best defensive center of the second team, and this honor also proves his contribution to the Wizards' record-breaking 73 wins. .
Although he has made outstanding contributions to the team's defense, but with Gobert's data, it is not possible to be selected as the Rookie of the Year, but it is more than enough to be selected as the best rookie lineup.
The five players in the rookie roster are Victor Oladipo, Tre Burke and Tim. Hardaway II, Michael Carter Williams and Rudy Gobert.
Facts once again proved that the 13-year rookie is really very low. None of the top five top picks before the draft was selected as the best rookie lineup. Bennett successfully replaced Kwame Brown. He was awarded the most water-based pick in NBA history. Title, averaging 12.8 minutes per game in the regular season, can only get 4.2 points and 3 rebounds, which is completely the standard of a water dispenser administrator, it is more soy sauce than soy sauce.
auzw.com Elected Rookie of the Year was Michael Carter Williams who averaged 16.7 points, 6.2 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game.
This is basically a big man in the dwarf. When Gobert has not fully grown into the best defensive player, and Oladipo has not yet become a top scorer, the league can only choose one stat to look prettier. Rookie.

In the discussion of the season lineup, the second round of the game ended one after another.
As expected from the eastern side, the Cavaliers defeated the Nets with a 4:2 record and advanced to the Eastern Conference. James will also face Wang Xiao's Wizards in the Eastern Conference stage for the fourth consecutive year.
The situation on the west side was an amazing reversal. The Trail Blazers, who had already held the match point 3:1, accidentally injured Durant and lost in the fifth game after returning to home. Not to mention the game, after inspection, Durant's injury will take at least three months to recover, which means he will miss all the playoff games this season.
Without Durant, the Blazers lost their most stable points. Aldridge alone was unable to support himself, and was beaten three times in a row, losing the game 3:4.
Wang Xiao still has a deep impression on the Grizzlies.
Point guard Mike Conley, shooting guard Tony Allen, small forward Courtney Lee, power forward Zach Randolph, center Mark Gasol.
The unassuming starting lineup contains immeasurable strength. If the Blazers have Durant to press the line, the Grizzlies are naturally not opponents, but Durant is not. Aldridge alone is naturally not an opponent.
The Blazers were knocked out in the second round, and the Spurs and Clippers series went to seven games.
Relying on the stable performance of the gdp and the newly joined Chris Bosh, the Spurs beat the Clippers in the fourth game, and Paul's dream was broken again.
As a result, the Eastern and Western Conference finals are the Wizards against the Cavaliers and the Spurs against the Grizzlies. This is also the first change in the Eastern and Western Finals in two years.
In the past two years, the East and the West have been Wizards and Heat. The Blazers and the Spurs are fighting. The audience is already a little tired, and this year is finally a bit different.
Whether the Wizards without George can continue to beat their upgraded James, the Spurs without the Trailblazers is the best time to rush to the crown, these are the suspense that the audience expects to see the results.
...
Before the start of the Eastern Conference finals, Wang Xiaoxian got good news.
He received a call from Dayao.
"Wang Xiao, tell you the good news, you may soon receive an official invitation letter from the Basketball Association!"
On the phone, Dayao's tone was a little excited.
Wang Xiao listened a little ignorant.
"Basketball Association, invitation? What do you mean?"
