Build a Dream Dynasty

On April 23, the NBA officially announced the roster of players in the All-NBA and All-Defensive Teams this season.

Curry, Harden, James, Anthony Davis, and Marc Gasol were successfully selected for the first team. Of course, the most controversial one is the selection of Davis at the power forward position. This season, Davis has more in the Pelicans. Time plays the role of a center, but being selected for the best team as a power forward, of course, makes many people unconvinced. For example, Griffin, who led the team to the upper half of the Western Conference, Aldridge, and Love who led the poor and weak Magic back to the playoffs, etc. Gasol Jr. in the center position is not controversial. He is also one of the most powerful contenders for the best defensive player with Dream Chasing Green.

Paul, Westbrook, Griffin, Aldridge, and Cousins ​​entered the All-NBA second team. Except for the small controversy of Westbrook because of his slightly poor grades, other problems are not very big. Irving, Klay Thompson, Gasol, Love, and Duncan got three teams.

The All-Defensive Team roster includes Paul, Tony Allen, Dream Chaser Green, Davis and Jordan. The All-Defensive Second Team list includes Wall, Butler, Andre Iguodala, Duncan, and Gasol Jr.

"If you don't make it to the playoffs, you will be on defense for a while. You're really the son of TMD America." Jiang Mingliang couldn't help but complain.

The strength is indeed there, but it is also a fact that the alliance is really crazy to hold the thick eyebrows now, and try every means to give him honor.

How can an insider who is 108,000 miles away from the playoffs get the honor of a first defense? Isn't this bullshit?

In contrast, Paul has been a bit unlucky this season. For a long time in the season, Paul was in the top five picks of the MVP list, but he was abruptly squeezed out by the 2009 duo of Curry and Harden. After a while, it was a little wrong.

To make matters worse, on April 24, the Bucks lost to the Cavaliers 112:121 away, and were eliminated by the opponent with a big score of 4:2.

Generally speaking, it is nothing special for the fourth to be counterattacked by the fifth. If nothing else, the Trail Blazers, the fourth in the West this season, were easily killed by the Grizzlies, the fifth in the West, 4:1, and the voices of abuse from the outside world also Not as much as imagined. The problem is that this happened to Paul, and it was overturned by Irving, who had not yet fulfilled his rookie contract, which is really worth talking about.

When Paul fans compete with Curry and Westbrook fans, they usually like to grasp the definition of "traditional point guard" to write a lot about it. However, the reality is that even the new generation of Irving can't beat it. This "tradition" is another What is the need for persistence?

For the Bucks, this somewhat-failed postseason meant there were plenty of issues to address. In the starting lineup, neither Larry Sanders nor Giannis Antetokounmpo can help the team to open up space. In the playoffs, the Cavaliers can resolutely adopt a double-team strategy against Paul after he breaks into the basket, making the team The percentage of shots at the basket has been greatly reduced. The Bucks lack a tough solution to crack the opponent's defensive strategy, which is a consistent problem for Paul's team.

To build a team around Paul, the Bucks front office still has a lot of work to do.

The 76ers and Nets lost a game in total, and the Eastern Conference semifinals between the two teams also took the lead.

This is also the first round of the Nets' matchup without home-court advantage in the three seasons.

Porzingis and Asik stood on both sides of the referee. Although the game had not yet started, the tense atmosphere was on the verge of breaking out. Two pairs of scorching eyes stared at the basketball in the referee's hand. Tensioned muscles.

As the orange basketball gradually rose, both of them jumped up. Porzingis, who had an absolute advantage in height and bounce, won the jump ball for the Nets. In fact, Porzingis was better than the jump ball. He never lost a few times.

JR Smith grabbed the ball, passed it into Curry's hands, and quickly went straight inside.

At this time, the 76ers players hadn't reacted yet. There were too many players gathered near the midfield, and they couldn't allow it to start easily. Just look at JR's light layup.

When the 76ers attacked, Harden did not force a breakthrough, but quickly handed the ball to James. Facing an opponent like the 76ers, the 76ers were more focused and did a lot of preparation before the game. James feinted, broke through Aminu's defense, hit a mid-range jumper, and helped the 76ers tie the score.

Curry used the pick-and-roll to break through Beverley, and the ball was sent to Aminu on the bottom line in time. The latter's three-pointer missed, Porzingis picked up the rebound, leaned back on Marion, and slightly moved his left elbow. Qu, withstood Asik, opened the distance between the two, and easily took off and hit.

Mirotic pulled to the perimeter to do a pick-and-roll for Harden. Facing Green’s supplementary defense, Harden was not as comfortable as in previous games. He broke through the middle and entered the three-second zone. Harden did not break through Green’s defense. With a good chance, with a flick of his wrist, the ball quickly flew into the hands of Mirotic on the outside. The latter made a false shot and made a two-pointer from close range.

After the opening, the Nets and the 76ers launched a fast-paced offense. You come and go on both sides, and the tactics are more aggressive.

Green's midfielder made a long pass to the inside line, and Porzingis made a realistic fake move, easily tricked Asik away, and the ball went into the basket.

James' breakthrough shot, Harden hit a three-pointer on the right wing.

A pass error by the Nets, Harden, James, and Asik easily hit two and three, and finally Asik scored a dunk.

Curry took a big step beyond the three-point line and suddenly took off and hit a shot.

The Nets, who were at a disadvantage, played very well in the first quarter. They made 15 of 24 shots in a single quarter and scored 41 points. Although the 76ers are not as efficient as the Nets, their 12-for-23 performance is absolutely qualified, and in the first quarter, Harden won a lot of free throws for the team. James also sent a 2+1, and the team was temporarily behind 35:41.

In the second quarter of the game, the 76ers continued to face off against the alternate rotation. Neto, Ingles, James Jones, Grant, and Perkins' bench strength was still good. Ingles performed fairly well in the sixth man in the later part of the season. He shot 40.1% from the outside and averaged 13.1 points per game. He is definitely a main player in other teams. More importantly, he is not The type of pure shooter who will decline in tough battles. He is closer to Turkey's Turkoglu. His ability to organize and pass the ball is quite good, and his defense is a bit dirty. Most of the time, he will not pit teammates on the defensive end.

In a team that already has two ball-holding points, James and Harden, Ingles' role has been weakened a lot. It is expected that he will test the waters of the free agency market this summer and is likely to get a big contract. . This pit will also be a big burden for the 76ers next season.

In contrast, the Nets' bench strength is slightly weaker. How to say it, some of Jiang Mingliang's transactions are indeed debatable from now on. The deal, including the signing of veteran Carter, doesn't seem too successful now, it doesn't quite fit, and this season, the hope of bringing the team legend a championship is not very big.

However, after the start of the game, Will Barton of the Nets showed a good competitive state in this game, using one after another to score points to help the Nets maintain a slight lead. After the season, Barton will also become a restricted free agent, and showing better performance in the playoffs will help him get a more superior contract.

The situation was not good. The 76ers replaced James Harden in advance to lead the team to chase the points. After Harden appeared, he immediately completed the classic pick-and-roll cooperation with Grant, and a high throw helped Grant to complete the alley.

Grant, a power forward, has good physical fitness, good athletic talent, and good flexibility on the defensive end. In the 76ers, his talent has been well developed, and he has provided good help for the team, especially It is the cooperation with Harden, which is very threatening.

In the playoffs, Harden's concentration on the defensive end also improved. In the next round of defense, he successfully completed a steal on Carter, and in the fast break, he assisted Grant again and completed a dunk score, twice in a row. Complete the top five dunks.

Seeing that his opponent was full of momentum, Stevens hurriedly called a timeout to cool down the boiling atmosphere on the scene, and then replaced Curry on the court.

In the playoffs, whether it is intended or not, when the team is in trouble, Curry will have a heavier burden on his shoulders, which is a matter of course. Especially when facing the 76ers' strongest opponent this season. Neither the Nets nor Curry have any reservations, because they don't know if there must be a next round.

After the debut, in the first round of offense, Curry used his offensive threat to create a chance for O'Quinn to attack the frame at close range, but O'Quinn failed to grasp this opportunity well, missed a layup, and was caught by Perkins. Take the backboard. Fortunately, in the conversion of offense and defense, Neto also missed a three-pointer.

Curry missed a jumper from the left wing, Terrence Jones took the lead and put the ball into the basket, and the Nets barely extended the lead to 5 points.

After opening the scoring box, the Nets suddenly found a way to attack. Harden missed a strong attack at the basket, Carter grabbed a rebound in the penalty area, a long pass, and Will Barton, who was already in ambush in the midfield, scored a layup. ..

Grant missed a mid-range shot after receiving Harden's pass. After O'Quinn received the rebound, the Nets attacked again. Curry made a 3-point shot. He drew a good pass from the Suns' defender, and the ball went to Curry, the late starter.

The Nets scored one after another, widening the point difference to double digits, and successfully forced James out of the field. At the same time, the Nets also arranged their main lineup on the field.

However, in the next seven minutes, it was indeed the most embarrassing seven minutes for the Nets in the entire season. James, whose physical strength was fully recovered, began to launch a violent impact on the Nets' defense. The speed, strength, and explosiveness all fell to the downwind. Minu was completely powerless to stop James' offense, and when the Nets chose to double-team, James' excellent overall situation and passing skills ensured that he could find the Nets' rotation to help defend the most difficult person to fill.

In seven minutes, James led the 76ers to a 24:4 attack wave, leading the 76ers to overtake the Nets by 10 points with 75:65 at halftime.

James' condition this season is much better than when he was with the Heat. In the 76ers, he doesn't need to gain weight to top the inside line. The team's inside line is not top-notch, but it's good for someone to open up the space and help someone to push people. use. The team has an offensive point like Harden that can also be entrusted with heavy responsibility. James does not need to **** himself for more than 40 minutes. The team has an excellent bench lineup, and even in the second quarter of the regular season, James found it. The 5-game rest, which gave James the best possible rest~www.wuxiamtl.com~, has all paid off in the playoffs.

In the locker room, after scolding a few words, Stevens still chose to encourage the players. Now, blindly scolding them will not benefit the team's morale much and may be counterproductive. And in itself, a player like James is not an easy role to deal with.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Curry used Porzingis' pick-and-roll to find a shot in the middle distance as soon as he came up. The number one man stood up.

Bev used a tactical foul to prevent Curry from taking advantage of the opportunity at this stage to complete the offense again, but his foul action made Curry a little unhappy. The two quickly put their heads against each other and started to talk trash to each other, and then they were attacked by teammates. pull away.

Beverley is very keen to do this mentality thing in the game, but don't forget, the Nets also have people who are proficient in it.

The 76ers are undoubtedly much stronger than the Raptors, but Asik is much easier to deal with than Howard in the interior. Against the 76ers and the Nets, Porzingis is a Very stable scoring points, the horns singled Asik, Porzingis tapped Asik with a fake action, then broke through with the ball and entered the inside line, facing Mirotic's supplementary defense and completed a score. A beautiful dunk, after landing, Porzingis waved his arms and shouted to celebrate this beautiful dunk.

At the beginning of the second half, the Nets counterattacked very quickly, and they had to feel the strength of this team. Although the core players in the team are injured, although the opponent is the strongest team this season, the Nets seem to have the strength to compete with the opponent, and the players are trying to maximize their advantages, which may be related to the team's head coach. , can't get rid of the relationship.
