With three points at the start, Nash begged for a maximum salary to renew his contract

Chapter 212 I can't win even with black feet, it's a shame
In the absence of Dayao, Wang Chao was able to lead the team to win the Thunder's home game with a single core, which really surprised everyone, and his efficient scoring performance of 66 points in the audience also surprised everyone. The National People's Congress opened their eyes and proved once again that Wang Chao is the strongest scorer of this era.

Compared with Wang Chao, Durant, who scored 35 points in the whole game, was overshadowed.

With a score of 3:1, the two sides returned to the Rockets' home court for the fifth game.

Even if the Rockets win the next game with the Thunder at home and get the match point first, there are still more people who are optimistic about the Thunder's victory, and ESPN also gave the probability of the two teams winning the Western Conference Finals.

In Game 57, the Rockets have a 43% chance of winning and qualifying for the Finals, while the Thunder have a 65% chance. They are obviously at a disadvantage. However, if the game is dragged to Game 35, the winning percentages of the two sides will be reversed directly, and the Thunder will have [-]%. % probability of winning, the probability of the Rockets advancing to the finals is only [-]%.

And when the game goes to the seventh game, the probability of the Thunder team advancing will be as high as 93%, and the Rockets will only have 7% left.

This is ESPN's final conclusion after conducting a vote on the entire network, which is in line with the views of the vast majority of fans.

In other words, if the Rockets want to beat the Thunder to reach the finals, the fifth game at home will be the best, and it may be the only chance.

Of course, Wang Chao also knows this truth, so in this game at home, all the players of the Rockets, including him, played extraordinarily hard. , the two sides tied and entered overtime, and finally relied on Leonard's winning three-pointer at a critical moment to seal the victory in overtime.

It was a fluke to win this game. After being scored 66 points by Wang Chao in the last game, the Thunder defended extremely tightly against Wang Chao in this game, and the Thunder's three minors played very well. If it wasn't for overtime At this stage, Durant's physical fitness is overdrawn, and if Westbrook fails to score several consecutive breakthroughs with the ball, the outcome is really unknown.

As strong as Wang Chao, he also sat on the floor after this game, only feeling exhausted.

He played a full 50 minutes in the regular game time plus overtime, but whenever he was on the court, he would receive meticulous "special care" from the Thunder players. Even when he was not catching the ball, there would always be a player who stayed on the ground Clinging to him consumes his energy and energy.

But fortunately, relying on the 99 physical strength value and the physical strength bonus of the long-distance runner talent, Wang Chao survived.

At 127:125, the Rockets narrowly beat the Thunder by 2 points, won the game, and officially defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference Finals with a score of 4:1, and officially advanced to the finals.

When the whistle sounded for the end of the game, Durant was almost stupid.

Can't win?What the hell?

It can be said that Durant went all out for his life in this game... No, it should be his life.

打了44分钟的他全场26投15中，三分球8中4，罚球6中5，砍下39分8篮板4助攻。

But this still failed to win the game.

威斯布鲁克在火箭队的针对防守下再一次化身卧底，19投7中得到17分6助攻4失误，哈登那边也被伦纳德拿捏了，出场39分钟的情况下仅出手6次命中2球，靠7中7的罚球才勉强得到11分。

For the Rockets, when Wang Chao was additionally targeted by the Thunder, other players got a lot of outside shots. At the critical moment, Leonard, Korver and other outside shooters showed their big hearts. It was Leonard, who shouldered the heavy responsibility of the team's second scoring point in the absence of Yao, scoring 21 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, and made 6 of 4 three-pointers, including receiving a pass from Wang Chao at the end of overtime The winning three-pointer after the assist can be regarded as the second contributor to the team's ability to win the game!
Of course, for the Rockets to win, Wang Chao's contribution is definitely the greatest.

出场50分钟，在对方高强度围追堵截下，王超22投12中，三分球10中4，罚球10中9，得到37分14篮板12助攻的大号三双数据。

Throughout the five games of the Western Conference Finals series, Wang Chao’s performance in the first three games was only satisfactory, averaging only 5+ points per game, but in the two games after Dayao was injured, his scoring soared, and finally the Western Conference Finals series averaged 30+ points per game. The average triple-double of 40.3 points, 10.1 rebounds and 11.2 assists is fixed, compared with Durant's average of 32.6 points, 6 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game.

Even if they failed to win the game, the Thunder's loss in the Western Conference Finals will undoubtedly be placed on the pillar of shame, and the results of the Western Conference Finals may directly affect Harden's contract extension. It's hard to say whether Harden will talk to the Thunder because of the price of $500 million when Leonard suppressed his performance in the Western Conference Finals.

This is all for later.

Houston fans must be the happiest for the Rockets to reach the finals. Although Dayao was unable to play due to injury, this is the first time the Rockets have entered the finals since 1995. Even if there is no way to win the championship, it is enough for Rockets fans Jump for joy.

And the second happiest is undoubtedly the fans of the Heat.

Before the start of the regular season, the Heat were the biggest favorites to win the championship, while the Rockets who got Wang Chao couldn't even rank in the top five in the strength list.

However, after 66 regular season games, the Rockets, with the first record in the regular season, became the team with the highest odds to win the championship, and it is also recognized by all teams as the strongest opponent in the playoffs.

The Heat have been struggling with how to deal with the Rockets before. Like the Thunder, the Rockets also lack a strong inside line, not even as good as the Thunder. After all, the Thunder still have Ibaka and Perkins inside.

Heat inside, only Bosh, Joel. Anthony and Haslem.

As a face-up offensive player, Bosh's style of play is biased towards the outside. He averaged 20+10 double-doubles per game in the Raptors season, but he can't count on defense.

Haslem and Joel Anthony are both blue-collar players, but compared with Perkins, who is also a blue-collar insider, the level is obviously lower. More importantly, Haslem is 2 meters 03 and Joel Anthony is 2 meters. In 06, it is simply impossible for them to defend Dayao.

The Heat are even ready for Bosh to bite the bullet and defend Dayao in the finals.

And now, Dayao has a sprained ankle and will miss all the remaining games of this season. The Heat suddenly loses an enemy that needs to be worked hard and perhaps impossible to guard against.

Wang Chao, who leads the team with a single core, is certainly terrifying, but their Heat have the top three giants in the league. They are also the three heroes against Lu Bu. .

And in terms of defending Wang Chao, the Heat are obviously more experienced than the Thunder. James + Battier play in turns, and the defensive effect against Wang Chao is definitely stronger than the combination of Ibaka + Durant of the Thunder.

As long as they face the Rockets in the finals, the probability of the Heat winning the championship will skyrocket.

It's just that while being happy, the Heat fans are still sweating for the fierce battle in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Originally thought that the old Big Three would not have much fighting power, but they didn't expect that the Eastern Conference Finals with the Celtics would be so stalemate. The two teams won their two home games, and the battle of Tianwangshan was about to begin.

The day after the Rockets eliminated the Thunder, the key battle of Tianwangshan in the Eastern Conference Finals was held at the home court of the Miami Heat.

The result of the game was that the Celtics defeated the Heat 94:90 and took the lead in winning the match point 3:2.

The Heat fans are all stupid, wouldn't the Big Three of the Heat fall on the stage of the Eastern Conference Finals for the second consecutive year?
The day before, they were still happy that the Rockets that entered the finals were a broken team, but now they are going to be extremely happy and sad!

Fortunately, under high pressure, James is really impatient.

Wang Chao, who joined the league later than him, already has four championships and three MVPs in his hands. If he still can't even win one championship, how can he stay in the league in the future?

Thinking of the terrible consequences that failure might bring, James broke out in the sixth game of the series, scoring 45 points, 15 rebounds and 5 assists, leading the Heat to defeat the Celtics 98:79, with a total score of 3:3. .

Later, in the Heat's home game in the tiebreaker, James scored another 31 points, 12 rebounds and 9 assists in a quasi-triple double, won the tiebreaker, defeated the Celtics 4:3 with difficulty, and the Big Three of the Heat finally Successfully entered the finals.
-
In the NBA Finals, there is actually nothing to say, the result is clear at a glance.

No matter how strong Wang Chao is, it is impossible to lead Leonard and other rookies and role players to defeat the Heat's Big Three.

After all, James is at the peak of his career and his competitive state is at its strongest. Wade is not as serious as his competitive state will decline in the next two seasons, plus a Bosh who can attack face-up and open up space inside.

The Rockets were completely unable to contain the Heat's offense.

Leonard can limit Harden and can effectively reduce Kobe's shooting percentage, but it is obviously not enough for James.

On the other hand, James and Battier's defensive strategy against Wang Chao was very successful.

The Heat have worked hard to limit Wang Chao. If you have the ability to pass the ball, pass it. Anyway, I want to double-team you. Even if you don’t hold the ball, you have to arrange one person to defend the other when you run to the bottom corner as a spot-up shooter. Stand by anytime not far away.

No matter how strong Wang Chao's offensive ability is, he will not have a particularly high shooting percentage against the defense of two people at the same time, and most of the time he will not even have a chance to shoot.

After the start of the finals, the Rockets won the next game by virtue of their home court advantage, but then lost three games in a row. Won the next game, but then lost the game in the sixth game of the series, and the total score was fixed at 18:11.

After winning the championship, James wept with joy, it was too difficult, it was really too difficult, his career is simply hellish difficulty, and even this championship can be won so easily, thanks to Perkins, the thunderous pervert .

James really can't imagine what the consequences will be if he can't win a championship in the past few years after joining the Heat. He left his hometown and brought his talents to the South Coast to play brother basketball. If he wins the championship, his career will be completely reduced to a laughingstock, and he will not even be able to hold his head up for the rest of his life.

Fortunately, there is no unparalleled road, and God still cares for him!
After losing the game, Wang Chao did not appear too disappointed, but he was not generous enough to go to congratulate James and others.

In this finals, any Rockets player or even a fan has only one thought, and that is dissatisfaction.

If Dayao can play, those guys inside the Heat team are just toys, they can be manipulated casually, and Wang Chao will not be targeted like that by the opponent. It is really not sure who wins... No, they won the finals more likely.

In 6 games, Wang Chao averaged 37 points, 13 rebounds and 9.2 assists, 50+ in one game, 40+ in one game, and more than 30 points in the remaining four games.

This also means that even James and Shane Battier's top defenders can't completely limit Wang Chao's scoring, only a little bit, as long as Yao is healthy, he will definitely win.

Looking at James, who was screaming up to the sky, releasing the pressure in his heart, and the Heat players who swarmed up to celebrate wildly, Wang Chao turned around and patted Leonard and other teammates beside him with unwilling expressions.

"It doesn't matter. If you are not convinced, you can win it back next year. Just remember this day and keep this unwillingness in your heart. You will definitely become stronger next season."

Now that the matter has happened, Wang Chao will not be distressed or unhappy about it. As he said, a championship is nothing more than a championship, and there are many opportunities to win it later.

James and the others are very happy now, but they never imagined how terrifying the Rockets they will face next year will be.

After Leonard, Butler, and Parsons rookies this season's game experience and the training bonus of the sparring potion, they will work harder next season, and their strength in the playoffs should all reach the third place in their careers. season level.

Both Leonard and Butler are players who can contribute 14+5 stably in the third season of their careers, and they are still not the main scoring points of the team. Without too much ball and shot rights, refer to Chandler Parsons averaged 16.6 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists per game in the third season of the Rockets. The performance of the two on the offensive end can also be expected more.

And in the original history, both Leonard and Butler were selected to the second team of the best defense in the third season, and they truly became the top perimeter defenders!

With two offensive and defensive outside partners, Wang Chao will not fall into the situation of being extremely targeted by the Heat like this finals... No, strictly speaking, the Rockets are fully capable of letting James experience Wang Chao next year Feeling in the finals.

By the way, in the third season of Thomas Jr.'s career, that is, in the 13-14 season of the Kings, he averaged 20.3 points and 6.3 assists per game, and his shooting percentage was 45%. reference value.

After all, he can be regarded as the first player in the 2011 rookie class to average more than 20 points per game except for the No. [-] pick Kyrie Irving.

(I actually hesitated for a long time about the plot where Dayao was injured and the Heat won the championship, because it is entirely conceivable how many readers would spray poison after writing this plot, but there is no way, the protagonist has already won four championships so far, if this year As far as winning the championship, Leonard Butler will not lose the championship when he grows up later. With a four-year rookie contract and four championships, in less than 15 years, the Warriors have risen, and the protagonist will have eight championships in hand. I really have nothing to write, so please forgive me.)
