Chapter 516 [Jerry's big showdown]
In other Western series games, the Spurs swept the Warriors 4-0, and there is no suspense.
Steve Francis joined, plus Derek Fisher, dunk king Jason Richardson, Michael Pietrus, and the Warriors' perimeter depth is not as good as the Spurs.
In the internal competition, the Warriors are much worse. Troy Murphy is completely destroyed by Duncan every game, and he can't defend one-on-one.The number of rebounds Murphy averaged in the series also dropped from 11 in the regular season to 7, and the identity of the data brush was exposed.
The Grizzlies eliminated the Nuggets 4-1 and advanced to the second round.
The Grizzlies' advantage is also inside. Paul Gasol blew up Camby. He played particularly well in the fifth game, scoring 28 points, 16 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 blocks.
Opposite words from outside and outside - Hilario missed the playoffs due to injury, and if he could play, the Nuggets wouldn't have been eliminated so easily.The perimeter trio composed of Anthony, Hamilton and Andre Miller has the advantage and is very strong in attack.
The Suns eliminated the Mavericks 4-3 with difficulty and will face the Lakers in the second round.The Lakers are in a good position before the game starts, and the players have been off for a week.
In a bloody overtime tiebreaker between the two sides, Nash scored 38 points and 11 assists, leading the Suns to defeat their old club 130-126.
Old Nelson is also a person who likes to play small ball tactics, but unfortunately there is no point guard who is good at launching fast breaks. David Wesley is just a pitcher, and Joe Johnson is in charge of the organization.Such a configuration is destined for the Mavericks to outrun the sun.
This year, the Mavericks introduced a meat shield center to defend against O'Neal and Duncan, but they didn't even have the chance to meet these people.Dampier's defense against O'Neal is like a dislocation, and he is deflated every game, which has become the biggest weakness of the Mavericks. It is not as useful as Marshall, who is a substitute.
Nash turned his back and averaged 30+10 per game in the series. Nowitzki, the core of the Mavericks, performed poorly. Although he averaged 25 points and 10 rebounds per game, his shooting percentage was only 40%.
Nash has become Cuban's nightmare. The Mavericks boss has always looked down on Nash and was reluctant to offer a high salary. Now he has been slapped in the face.
Joe Johnson made it clear that he would enter the free market in the summer and strive for a big contract; Nelson was also preparing to leave the Mavericks. In the summer, the Mavericks were going to disintegrate.
In the Eastern Conference series, the Bulls eliminated the No.4 Pacers 1-8.
步行者靠着迈克尔-里德爆发砍下42分赢了一场比赛，这赛季他场均能砍下24.3分4篮板2.8助攻1.3抢断，是队里头号得分手。
The Heat defeated the 4ers 1-76, and O'Neal still has an extraordinary dominance in the East.
The Raptors eliminated the Celtics 4-3 away in the tiebreaker. Carter made a lore at home in the fourth game and scored 35 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists in the seventh game. He is still a hero in Toronto.
The Wizards eliminated the Pistons 4 to 3, and Jeff Van Gundy disappointed the Detroit fans again. Their record is better than the Celtics. According to the record, they should be third in the Eastern Conference and have home-court advantage in the first round.
The biggest contributor to the Wizards' win was Stoudamire. He broke Okur after the series, averaging 37 points, 11 rebounds and 2 assists per game, with no solution on the offensive end.
Outside Arenas faced Bob Sura, either suddenly or with a shot, and also had the upper hand.
The advantage of the Pistons is that they have a lot of players. Maggette, Prince, Houston and others have all played well.But the tiebreaker requires people to stand up and score consecutively at critical moments, and the Pistons do not have superstars.
The Wizards' poor performance was Jamison. His shooting percentage was very low, and he did not perform well in the face of Prince's defense. He averaged 16.7 points per game and hit less than 4%.
After this season, the Pistons management does not plan to renew his contract with Van Gundy. He was fine in the regular season, but he fell off the chain once he entered the playoffs. No one regards Van Gundy as a "Jerry coach".
The focus of the second round was the Suns VS Lakers in the west, and the Wizards VS Bulls in the east, all of which were led by "Jerry's coaches".Including the Wizards, people feel that they are continuing some of Yang Rui's tactics.
Because the Suns won the Lakers in two games after the regular season, and a few experts believe that they have an upset strength, the media that broadcast this series is the most.
The good news for the Lakers is that backup inside line Lamar Odom is back from injury and will play in the second round.
On May 5, the first game started at the Staples Center of the Lakers, and the players played on time.
Unlike other home games, Lakers fans don't like booing opponents very much, and Nash got some applause when he played.He has led the Suns to good results this season, with a beautiful offense that has attracted many fans.
TNT broadcast live, Barkley said: "The two best coaches this season are Yang Rui and D'Antoni, and the two best players are Kobe and Nash. In the regular season, it is difficult for the Suns to win the Lakers in awards, if they want to Prove yourself, the only thing you can do is try to beat the Lakers in the playoffs."
Smith said: "The two teams have a neat lineup, and the Lakers have plenty of stamina. Today's victory is a bit bigger."
Yang Rui and D'Antoni greeted each other, and the expressions of the two formed a sharp contrast.
The corners of Yang Rui's mouth rose slightly, and he seemed to take the outcome very lightly, with absolute confidence.
D'Antoni's expression was serious and his mood was very similar to Thibodeau's when the Bulls fought the Wizards in 2003. He wanted to win, but he lacked confidence.
Those who have been assistant coaches to Yang Rui feel that he has a mysterious power and a precise vision, and he can always help players play their specialties and win games.If you want to eliminate Yang Rui's team to advance, you need to create a miracle.
The coach is still in this mentality, and the Sun players are under more pressure.They win the game by running and shooting. Yang Rui won the championship by running and shooting when he was in the Raptors. He must understand the advantages and disadvantages of counterattack tactics.
Lakers starting: Jones, Kobe, Iguodala, Rashid, Yao Ming.
Suns starting: Nash, Raja Bell, Grant Hill, Marion, O'Neal Jr.
From the perspective of the depth of the lineup, the Suns are stronger than Yang Rui's previous life.The three points are slightly inferior, and the defense is much better.
Yang Rui sent Yao Ming to start as usual. Obviously, he had to fight for the offense. Yao Ming has weaknesses in defending fast breaks, but the Suns are not good at defending him.
Yao Ming won the jump ball and the game started.
Kobe took the ball, waited for his teammates to pull away, played a pick-and-roll with Yao Ming in the middle, and suddenly defended Bell on the left side. Kobe put the ball in the middle, and Yao Ming received the ball and met Hill, who is 203cm tall.
The Suns started with a mixed defense, with Marion, Hill, and Bell on the perimeter, and Nash and O'Neal on the bottom line.O'Neal Jr. is responsible for guarding the penalty area and protecting rebounds. Nash's task is to guard the three-pointer from the bottom corner on one side and start a quick counterattack after receiving the ball.
Yang Rui tasted the tactics and admired D'Antoni's boldness. This arrangement will test O'Neal's ability. If he can't defend Yao Ming by himself, he can't be double-teamed, and there will be big problems in the penalty area.
Moreover, O'Neal can't defend too far, otherwise even if it interferes with Yao Ming's shooting, Nash can't protect the rebound well and can only rely on Marion to retreat to grab the rebound, which is likely to lose offensive rebounds.If Yao Ming organizes bottom-line teammates at a high position, O'Neal Jr. and Nash will both face the impact of dislocation.
This defensive tactical loophole is too obvious, because the Lakers usually in the right corner is not Jones, but Iguodala.
Yao Ming knew this and passed the ball to the bottom corner on the right. Nash kept his distance and interfered. Iguodala faltered and changed direction to break through. He couldn't get rid of it at 45 degrees. .
Nash's confrontation was poor, and he was a little out of position when he was hit, and he failed to prevent the first brother's turn.O'Neal hurriedly defended from the left, Iguodala jumped up to attract the defense, and scored the ball to the left bottom corner, Jones was empty.
Of course, Jones will not let this opportunity pass, making a three-pointer and entering the net hollow. 3 to 0.
