Bishop of the Devil

Chapter 826

In the blink of an eye, it's the middle of April, the annual playoffs start.

Until the end of the regular season, the Clippers still maintained their fourth place record in the West.

But even so, no one will underestimate the Clippers' strength when they think of the Spurs winning the fourth place in the west last season.

In the eyes of all fans, although the first team in the west is Denver and the pioneer, the real chance to win is not these two teams, but the Spurs and Clippers who pretend to die in the regular season.

These two teams will definitely be the most powerful contenders for the championship.

Last season, the Spurs fought against the heat, and finally the Spurs won. On the one hand, the three new spurs showed amazing strength, on the other hand, Wade was injured

The heat's coach was prepared to shorten Wade's playing time, but Wade refused. Wade drew knee fluid ahead of time, which made the heat not lose like a mountain.

It's because of the knee effusion that wade suffered from chronic arthritis, which made his overall condition worse. He only played 50 games this season.

Under normal circumstances, the heat's second championship, which was won in the finals of last season, would not have won the Spurs in the Seventh World War had it not been for Wade's radical treatment.

It can be said that wade gave everything to the heat, but the heat did something disappointing. They gave bosh a five-year top salary and wade a short-term contract of $31 million for two years.

Why is the contract short-term? Naturally that's because of Wade's potential injury risk, which has kept the heat from risking signing for five years.

As a result, no one expected that Wade, who signed a two-year contract, would be healthy and healthy in the future. Although he was absent from the game occasionally due to injuries, he didn't hurt much. Instead, bosh, who signed a five-year contract, said goodbye to the NBA stage completely because of the blood clot in his body.

The world is really a little unpredictable

Without any surprise, whether the heat can make it to the finals this year is a matter of two words. Even if they make it to the finals, they will not be rivals of clippers or Spurs.

……

In the first round of the playoffs, all four teams in the first half of the West swept their opponents 4-0, which is the first time for Richard to know. However, since he entered the league, such a collective sweep never happened.

Clipper's first round opponent is thunder, four games down, the game can clear thunder more than 20 points.

Thunder's fifth position in the west, in fact, is not weak, but it is mainly because there are too few main attacking points in the team. Wei Shao is strangled by Leonard, and Guo Fu is ravaged by Gerbert and Big Ben

With players like Leonard on hand, it's the happiest thing for the manager. They don't have to worry about how to limit the scoring points of each other. Just put Leonard there, Leonard knows how to do it.

The key effect is quite amazing.

Weishao made 6.4 mistakes in the field defended by Leonard, with a hit rate of only 39%

This remarkable advantage, the clipper does not sweep the thunder is strange.

As for the Spurs, it's the warriors again.

Last season, the Spurs played fourth in the West against the fifth in the West. This season, the Spurs played third against the sixth in the West

The result can be imagined, naturally or sweeping.

Warriors are half dead now. It's said that they are weak * * and can enter the playoffs every year. It's said that they are strong teams. They were swept in the first round in two years. Which is the strong team

Richard estimates that Mark Jackson's job as head coach may be over.

The next round of the playoffs, the Western Conference semi-finals, the Clippers against the Blazers.

It was a battle between Weng and his son-in-law. As a result, the Clippers didn't give Paul Allen any face. Finally, they eliminated the Blazers with a 4-1 score and reached the western finals.

This round of series is the most satisfying for Richard, when it comes to the performance of Gerbert.

Once upon a time, Gobert was on the court by Oden on the ground friction, miserable to no avail.

Now, although Gerbert is still not Oden's opponent, but at least he can limit some Oden, and won't let Oden do anything under the basket.

Oden can't do anything, Granger can't be seen by Leonard, so it's hard for the pioneers to turn over.

Two rounds of series play down, Leonard's desperate defense, has been a terror.

There is no doubt that Leonard has really entered the peak period at the defensive end.

Normally, Leonard won the MVP in the finals this year.

As for the offensive end, Leonard still has room for improvement in the offensive end, but it is better than Sun Yue before.

The Spurs and nuggets series, is also the same 4-1 big score, the Spurs got the chance to advance.

The western side has completed the following situation in the Western semi-finals, which is also the only one in NBA history.On the contrary, the situation in the East made the fans frown.

The heat was killed by Yao Ming's leading pistons in the eastern semi-finals, and both sides fought for seven. In the end, Yao Ming's last game was the kind of courage that no one can limit.

The heat's interior line is not good. Bosh is good, but in recent years, because of the needs of the team, his tonnage has become smaller. Although he has become more flexible, the smaller tonnage also means that the ability to fight in the forbidden area has become weaker, and naturally he is not Yao Ming's opponent.

Results in this game, Yao Ming led the team to win the heat with 47 points, 19 rebounds and 5 blocks, and returned to the East.

The piston has not been able to enter the East for several years. It has always been the third place in the East. Now it's finally boasted.

Dongjue is especially fierce. Yao Ming is also fighting for his life. He knows his situation very well. At present, he is 33 years old, and there is not much peak to play.

If these two years can't lead the pistons further, it's possible that his next career will be over.

In the history of NBA, there are some old inner line monsters. They can still maintain a good condition at the age of 40, but most of them are in steep decline after they are over 35.

Even O'Neill, the most dominant player in history, is no exception.

Yao Ming asked himself that he must not be that old monster. After he was 30 years old, he had a feeling that he couldn't do it. He could score a lot of goals steadily at the peak. Now it's difficult to score.

By the time he was 35, Yao felt his career was almost over.

So take advantage of the last two years, how can he not fight well.

In the end, it's a pity that Yao Ming got to the sixth game, maybe because he was too tired, and because of his age, he was injured directly.

Without Yao Ming's piston, he was defeated and led away by the Hornets.

Richard watched this round of the game and was so sorry that Yao Ming was also 33 years old.

I am 46 now, and I will be 50 in a few years. This year is Richard's 20th year.

94 years, now 2014

It's really a blink of an eye, 20 years have passed.
