But Li Ba had tried this tactic in the last game, how could he not be prepared?
He bypassed Stoudemire very quickly, jumped directly behind Nowitzki, and slapped the latter to the floor with the ball.
With a bang, Nowitzki fell hard, and his mouthguard fell to the floor.
Fortunately, Li Ba used his foot to prop the back of Nowitzki's head, otherwise he might have suffered a concussion.
One attack, swallowed four big caps, and the Mavericks were stunned.
In the next game, the Suns players played very excitedly, their enthusiasm was very high, and their defensive intensity was comparable to that of the finals, which made the Mavericks breathless.
The Mavericks management has done so many things and spent a lot of money. They thought they could distract the Suns, but they were very disappointed in the result.
All the players of the Suns are stimulated by the big contract, and they are full of energy, without any signs of damaged morale or lack of morale.
Although the excessive excitement made the Suns feel bad, they played with full momentum and beat the Mavericks in three quarters.
As a result, the Mavericks lost the G2 game and returned to Dallas with a two-game losing streak.
The G3 match was on the 23rd, and there were a few days of rest. There was no training on the 20th, and Bill Duffy and Gao Yuanyuan also arrived in Phoenix. Li Ba invited the whole team to have dinner at home, which was an early departure. Teammates see off.
Everyone chatted while eating, and it was very lively.
"Manu, are you going to leave or stay?" Li Ba asked.
"Oh, I'm still thinking about it. In fact, it's good in Phoenix. I don't really want to leave." Ginobili said.
"A Lian, what about you?" Li Ba asked.
"me?"
Ah Lian looked at Gao Yuanyuan, and the latter said: "Everyone will leave next season, and no one can take away the main position of Ah Lian. Where can he go? He will not leave after he has good data next season." Late."
"Uh-huh."
Allen nodded with a smile.
"Mark, which team do you want to go to?" Li Ba asked.
Gasol Jr. looked at Gao Yuanyuan, who said: "The Celtics and the Heat both allowed him to be the main center. The same goes for the Lakers. The Mavericks also contacted me. I think it is more likely to go to the East. , The team will definitely not be willing to trade him to the Lakers."
Li Ba nodded. The Lakers and Suns are not only in the same league, but also in the same district. The competition is very high, and it is almost difficult to reach important unilateral reinforcement deals.
On the 23th, the G3 game of the Western Conference finals started.
Li Ba continued to defend Nowitzki, the core of the Mavericks, and the Suns continued their efforts, winning the third game, and the sweep was imminent.
On the 25th, the Suns swept the Mavericks and advanced to the finals first.
In the East, the Celtics took over half of the Cavaliers' main lineup, plus the original core of the team, Pierce, with strong strength, and drew a tie with the Heat.
Back in Phoenix, owner Savor thought twice and took David Griffin to Li Ba's house to discuss with him about the team's reconstruction next season.
"Hammer, do you think Gary Payton is still suitable to be the head coach?" Savor asked first.
After thinking for a while, Li Ba said, "Robert, Gary has a way of defending, but it's up to you to decide whether to keep it or not."
Savor nodded, he understood what Li Ba meant, and he was inclined to keep Payton.
At this time David Griffin said: "Then let Payton come over and discuss the lineup construction for next season."
An hour later, Peyton rushed over and participated in the discussion.
Payton said: "Next season's style, of course, will still focus on defense. We need to introduce players who are both offensive and defensive. In terms of style of play, we have a lot of room to choose, because the Hammers can play traditional positional warfare and also Can play small ball."
David Griffin said: "Yi is determined to stay, and our main inside combination remains unchanged. On the front line, Hill chose to stay, but he is a year old, and Tony Allen is going to leave again, so we still need It’s better to choose another main striker.”
He thought for a while and then said: "In terms of the guard combination, we are trying to keep Ginobili, and we need to trade another main point guard."
Payton said: "At least one main small forward and one main point guard are needed. But the headache is the bench lineup. Our bench lineup will definitely be lost. No one will refuse those big contracts."
Savor couldn't help cursing again, now that his net worth belongs to the Suns, the team must not have any accidents.
Originally, he wanted to sell the Suns, but after talking with Li Ba, he changed his mind.
Moreover, he sees that the U.S. economy is on a downward trend, the Federal Reserve continues to release water, and the capital market is full of cash, so high-quality assets will be very attractive and have a great ability to preserve value, so he disposed of another batch of unsatisfactory assets. CPIC's assets and all the venture capital have bought out Li Ba's shares, and now he is the sole shareholder of the Suns.
Li Ba smiled and said: "Don't worry, Robert, the team is fine. No matter what, we can always get some good players back, otherwise how can the deal be reached?"
Savor nodded and said to Li Ba: "Tie Hammer, as long as you are in the Suns, I believe it will be absolutely fine."
Payton said: "Now Rondo can actually be promoted as the main point guard. He has served as the main point guard for half of the games this season. Can we keep him?"
Li Ba smiled and said: "The key is the contract. We can't match it at all. It's obvious that other teams are poaching our corner. It doesn't make sense for you to keep him. I still have that opinion. If you want to leave, don't." Stay, we should not stand in the way of people’s wealth. There is a Chinese saying that blocking people’s way of making money is like killing one’s parents.”
"Okay then, just leave if you want." Peyton said helplessly.
The time for the finals is June 6, and the Suns waited until June 3 before finishing the Eastern Conference finals.
The Celtics dragged the Heat to the tie-break, because O'Neal's physical exhaustion completely collapsed the team's interior, resulting in the failure of the tie-break.
The collapse of the inside line has made the Celtics management firm in their determination to introduce Marc Gasol, but this needs to compete with the Heat and the Lakers.
Even, they want to poach the UAE. The UAE, which is both offensive and defensive, is a high-quality striker that any team needs.
The Heat won Game [-] with a younger lineup, reached the Finals, and the next day, they rushed to Phoenix.
On the evening of the 2nd, Li Ba invited LeBron and others to dinner, and Ah Lian and Dayao accompanied the guests.
"Yi, let's go to the Heat." As soon as they met, LeBron began to solicit.
Ah Lian chuckled and said, "Why don't you come to our Suns, we should lack a main small forward next season, so you are just right."
LeBron laughed and stopped talking about it.
"Come on, LeBron, you rookies, tell me, have you figured out how to beat us in the finals?"
Li Ba sat on the sofa in a dainty manner, and asked LeBron and the others.
When these words were spoken, the atmosphere was broken, and LeBron and the others were silenced.
