Super Lord of the Rings

Before the start of Game 5 against the Pistons, the Bulls held a simple MVP award ceremony at home.

Wang Jun took the trophy from David Stern and delivered a speech.

"First of all thanks to my teammates and coaches, without their help I would not be able to succeed. I love this sport and try to win every game. I hope every day that I am better than yesterday, and I think that is one of the reasons for winning the award. I Knowing that everyone’s cameras are on me, I hope I can say a few more words, the cameras and camera motors are still full, but let’s start the game as soon as possible. I want to wait until the opponent is eliminated before making a long speech.”

The Pistons were sentenced to death before the game was played. Wang Jun was very arrogant, and he had the confidence.

Billups will definitely not play. If the Bulls lose at home like this, his MVP trophy will be returned directly.

The Bulls had the upper hand at the beginning of the game, and they were still zone defenses, strictly preventing breakthroughs, and shooting mid- and long-range shots. The penalty area was blocked tightly, the Pistons guard couldn't get in, and the stocky insider Mark Hill couldn't play a role anymore.

Stuckey couldn't shoot three-pointers at all, averaging less than one shot per game, and his shooting percentage was low. As the top scorer, Hamilton kept running to catch the ball and shoot. He could score, but he couldn't drive the team's rhythm.

Rashid is currently the team's strongest three-pointer. He has made many misplaced shots from the outside, and his shooting percentage is poor under interference.

Entering the playoffs, Rashid shot only 42.4% from the field, 32% from three-pointers, 74.4% from free throws, and only 2.3 times. His 13.2 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists are really not a star. In summer, he must be the object that the Pistons are eager to send.

The Pistons' defense was breached, and Hill singled out Hamilton. He was superior in height and physique, and scored 17 points. This was his first playoff performance.

Hamilton scored 31 points and was the only one who performed well for the Pistons.

Prince and Wang Jun were completely defeated. Stuckey and Hunter also failed to outperform Calderon and Duhon.

At the end of the final quarter with 4 minutes left, the Bulls took the lead and sealed the victory ahead of schedule.

The substitute players maintained the advantage until the end, 98 to 74, and the Bulls eliminated the Pistons for three consecutive years. The first to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals. And get a lot of rest time, physical fitness is dominant.

Wang Jun didn't say much at the press conference, the next round of the series is the beginning of the challenge.

The good news is not only that, Barnes and Chandler recovered well,

Will participate in the team's training to find the status. The two of them can play, and the Bulls' defense will improve a lot.

In another round of the Eastern Conference series, the Celtics beat the Cavaliers at home. 3 to 2 to get the match point.

The Cavaliers returned to the home court and fought back tenaciously. James scored 32 points, 12 rebounds and 6 assists. Mike Bibby hit four three-pointers and scored 14 points, keeping the Cavaliers' hopes of advancing. No one else scored in double digits, and the Cavaliers shot just 32.8 percent.

The full defense of the two teams made the game very ugly.

The Celtics are even worse and have yet to win an away game in this year's playoffs. Garnett scored 25 points and 8 rebounds, Pierce made 5 of 15 shots and scored 16 points, and Ray Allen scored 9 points.

At this time, the two teams were already on David Stern's blacklist. If the finals were played like this, it would be no wonder the ratings would be high.

The Western Lakers eliminated the Jazz 4-2. Kobe led the team to score in double figures with 34 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists.

The Lakers advanced to the Western Conference Finals, in line with the old saying "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years". In 1998, the Lakers lost to the Jazz in the playoffs. Ten years later, they took revenge and waited for the winner of the Hornets and Spurs.

The media praised Kobe. After entering the playoffs, he played very well, averaging 33.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 6 assists and 1.7 steals per game, shooting 51.3% from the field and 36.5% from the three-point range, dominating the court.

The Lakers have gotten better with the ball since Gasol arrived, who, like Odom, can respond to passes, be unselfish and can shoot from mid-range.

Fisher, Radmanovic, Vujacic, and Farmar all made more than 40% of their three-pointers in the playoffs, providing the team with three-point firepower.

As soon as his teammates pulled away, Kobe showed his might. Not only can he attack with the ball, but he can also run without the ball to catch the ball, or immediately start to break through to the inside after receiving the ball.

At this time, people realized that Kobe was not a person with a unique style of play. It was just that the Lakers had a poor lineup in the past. They lacked the inside axis and outside shooting points of the triangle offense. .

Gasol is the perfect inside axis, one of the big men who pass the ball the most. When Kobe has a bad hand, the ball can be passed to him to attack, which can also ensure efficiency and break double teams.

With a good helper, Kobe broke out, and his offensive efficiency in the playoffs reached its peak.

The Lakers are also the favorites to win the championship, even if Bynum is reimbursed for the season. Gasol and Odom can hold up the inside line, contribute double-double data stably, and their shooting percentages have reached more than 50%.

Some experts believe that the Lakers will form a three-legged confrontation with the Bulls and Celtics in recent years, and the depth of the lineup will even exceed those two teams.

Wang Jun entered the playoffs and averaged 30.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.3 steals per game. Except for the rebound data and three-point shooting percentage that surpassed Kobe, he was below Kobe in several other items.

The Cavaliers and Celtics decided the outcome in seven games.

Pierce scored 41 points and 6 rebounds, and James scored 45 points and 6 assists. The two stars soared, but James failed to withstand the Big Three and lost 91 to 99.

The Celtics stumbled into the Eastern Conference Finals with the Bulls. Ray Allen still performed poorly. After entering the playoffs, the Big Three seemed to have become the Big Two.

Sweeping the Bulls in the regular season, the majority of people who were originally optimistic about the Celtics. After the two rounds, more people are optimistic about the Bulls entering the finals. The Celtics have problems on offense, and they haven't won an away game yet.

The Celtics have home court advantage and restrain the Bulls in rhythm, which can limit the opponent's fast break. Skiles has studied for a period of time, but there is no good way to break through the Green Army's defense line. He can only rely on Wang Jun's personal ability to fight.

The battle between the two sides is imminent.

The Spurs advanced in the end and eliminated the Hornets 4-3.

In the tiebreaker, Manu Ginobili hit 4 three-pointers and scored 26 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. Duncan scored 16 points and 14 rebounds, and Tony Parker scored 17 points and 5 assists. The Spurs made 12 of 28 three-pointers from the field.

With outside firepower, the Spurs broke through the Hornets' devil's home court.

Paul made 8 of 18 shots, scored 18 points, 8 rebounds and 14 assists. He tried his best on both ends of the offense and defense, and was sent off for six fouls at the last moment.

Marginal Pargo scored 18 points. He was a surprise player in the Hornets playoffs.

West scored 20 points, Stojakovic 13 points, performance is not bad.

The Spurs' experience obviously played a role. The young Hornets were a little overwhelmed.

Ben Wallace played 37 minutes and was stunned by the Spurs' "shark hacking tactic". He made 4 of 12 free throws and made a touching rate.

Scott's stubbornness is unmistakable, and he can use it endlessly whoever he recognizes. Even if Wallace's offense is terrible, in order to ensure the defense, he will continue to play, and almost no adjustments will be made throughout the season.

In the second half, because of Daben, the Hornets could only play positional battles. He couldn't defend against Duncan alone, and was eventually worn out by the Spurs.
