NBA: Back to 97, to be the Jagged Bishop

Chapter 308
Carlisle also tried to adjust the lineup after he changed his lineup on Comb's side. Unfortunately, the Pistons have too few players to play. All Carlisle can do is make a fuss about the starting lineup.

For example, let Big Ben give up facing Yao Ming, and instead go against the bus, let Rashid defend Yao Ming's mid-range shot.

It's a pity that Yao Ming's basketball quotient is too high, and there is no need for Konbudo to say it. As long as Ben defends the bus, he will immediately use his strength advantage to crush Rashid, and then dunk at the basket.

Carlisle is in a state of distress. At this moment, he has really realized what it means to be able to cook without rice. Is his tactical ability worse than that of Combe?He doesn't think so.The reason why the field has gradually been controlled by Konbu is entirely because Konbu has better players.

After the game, the Philadelphia 76ers, who were still one point behind in the first half, won by 13 points in the second half.

In the next three games, Combe won all of them without giving the Pistons any chance.

The Philadelphia 76ers have reached the Eastern Conference finals for the third consecutive year, and this is also the sixth time that Comb has reached the Eastern Conference finals in six years.

The time came to the middle and late May, and the annual lottery meeting began.

Originally, Kumbu did not intend to participate in the lottery. After all, he had to lead the team to play in the playoffs, and Jordan also had to participate. Kumbu planned to find a random staff member from the new army to represent the team to participate in the lottery. General Assembly.

But it just happened to sweep the Pistons, which gave Comb time to participate in the lottery.

In the six years since he entered the league, Comb has participated in almost everything, except that he has never participated in the lottery.

To participate in the lottery, the first condition is that the team fails to enter the playoffs, and only then is it eligible to draw the lottery.

Kumbu wins the championship every year, how could he have the opportunity to participate in the draw.

Just taking advantage of this opportunity, Kumbu was going to see the world.

After Jordan heard the news, he had to come with Combe, and Combe simply took him to New York.

Last season, there were 13 playoff teams, and 14 teams that did not make it to the playoffs came to participate in the lottery. Adding the new army Bobcats, that is [-] teams. The original [-] lottery picks have also become Got [-].

"Damn it, why can't Stern give us unlimited top-five picks."

"If there is no limit, I feel that my luck will definitely win the No. [-] lottery."

Jordan said angrily.

Kong Bu couldn't help but laugh, "You were not the number one scholar back then, why are you so superstitious about the number one scholar?"

"Maybe the players we won this time won't lose the No. [-] pick at all?"

Only then did Jordan show a smile on his face, "That's right, it doesn't matter if it's not the No. [-] lottery, since you're here anyway."

"As long as it is the top five picks, we will definitely be able to select a super insider who is not inferior to the No. [-] pick."

"By the way, Kong, I must go with you to this draft. When the players are selected, you can say it was my idea."

"Because I chose Kwame Brown as the No. [-] pick, the outside world has always suspected that there is something wrong with my vision."

Jordan is still brooding about the Kwame Brown incident, although Kwame Brown played fairly well in the hands of Combe.

But he is the number one pick after all, and if he just played improvisely, then he is not improvisely.

"Super insiders? Michael, there aren't so many super insiders in this draft, but the outsiders produced are pretty good."

"Huh? There is no inside line? How can I do that?"

"Not a single insider? Impossible?"

Although Jordan is the god of guards, he is still very superstitious about the inside line like all traditional old players, at least the current Jordan is like this.

"It can't be said that there are none, the Chris Bosh of Georgia Tech is good."

In the previous few drafts, Kumbu never disclosed the name of his favorite player to anyone in advance, mainly because he was afraid of leaking the information. Anything can happen in the commercial league, and Kumbu had to guard against it.

But now there is no need to hide from Jordan. After all, Bobcat owns half of his shares, so he can't reveal his secrets.

"Chris Bosh? I know that kid? Looks a little too skinny."

"Not bad? When you say good, how good is it?"

Jordan asked curiously.

Combe pondered for a moment, "How should I put it? It can probably be seen as a substitute for Chris Webber. He shoots better than Webber, but he doesn't have Webber's organizational skills."

These words directly surprised Jordan.

"God, Webber's replacement?! Then why are we still hesitating? Of course we have to be selected. Webber will definitely be the No. [-] pick in most draft years."

"Bosh doesn't have the ability to organize. It's not a problem at all. Aren't you sure that Hill can return to the top? With Hill, are you afraid of lacking frontcourt organization?"

"And you also said that Bosh is good at shooting. Isn't that a perfect match for Hill?"

Jordan's words immediately made Combe ponder.

The rookie he originally wanted was Anthony, mainly because Anthony was more mature than any rookie in the same class.

But what Jordan said seems to be very reasonable, and Bosh seems to be a perfect match with Hill.

Think about it carefully, who does James play like?That must be Hill at his peak, and James can have a good chemical reaction with Bosh, and Hill must be fine.

And if it is Anthony, it seems that the effect is not as good as Bosh.

Anthony doesn't play well without the ball. He also needs possession of the ball, and he is still a black hole of possession. When the ball is in his hands, it is almost difficult for him to pass it out.

In addition, there are a lot of players at the second and third positions in this draft. Without Anthony, there are others available to Comb.

"Michael, don't tell me, you have a better idea than me this time."

"I was going to take Syracuse's Carmelo Anthony."

"Now it seems that Bosh is more suitable for us."

Kong Bu patted Jordan on the shoulder and smiled.

Jordan was shocked at first, and then his face was full of pride. He wished the whole world would know what happened just now, and his vision of the draft actually made Kumbu feel ashamed.

It's a pity that there is no way to tell the outside world about this right now, and we can only wait until the draft is over.

The lottery was held very quickly, and the representatives of the fourteen teams had different expressions on their faces.

The representative of the Cavaliers who got the No. 14 lottery is naturally happy from ear to ear, while the Supersonics who only got the No. [-] pick are sad.

Their record in the regular season is actually very poor, ranking No. 11 in the Western Conference. Under normal circumstances, it would not be a problem to get a seventh or eighth pick, but in the end they only got the [-]th pick.

The Bobcats of the new army were drawn by Jordan on the court, and they drew a No. [-] lottery. I don't know if Stern has tampered with it. Anyway, this is already the best pick that the Bobcats can get.

"Look at what I'm talking about? If there are no restrictions, I can really get the No. [-] lottery."

"But it doesn't matter, the No. [-] pick is enough to select Chris Bosh from Georgia Tech."

"Kong, I am now looking forward to the upcoming draft."

Jordan said with longing.

Kumbu is also looking forward to the next draft.

Originally, he still troubled the team's fifth position. Now if Bosh is selected, the fifth position will not be a problem, because Bosh can play the fifth position. He is in the Raptors and later the Miami Heat. A center who has played many seasons.

Although the point guard problem is still difficult to solve, Comb has already made up his mind to let Hill be the main point guard and put a shooting guard at the first position.

In this way, the tentative Bobcats starting lineup in Comb's mind is Bosh, David West, Hill, Josh - Howard plus Barbosa.

The new army Bobcats can have such a starting lineup, it is definitely high-end.

Although it seems that there is little hope of winning the championship, Kumbu is not dead, and he still has a lot of time to adjust the lineup.

And this is not the final lineup, no one knows if there will be any surprises in the military expansion draft.

For example, if the Philadelphia 76ers really didn't put Bus on the protection list, then Combe would be able to select Bus to play center and Bosh to play the [-]th position. Inside any team.

After the lottery was over, Combe and Jordan hurried back to Philadelphia. When the monk hit the clock one day, the next most important thing for them was to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to win the last championship of the dynasty.

尼克斯和猛龙那边还是打的如火如荼，费城76人4:0横扫活塞的时候，他们俩还是2:2打成了平手。

Combe's previous deal with the Raptors can be said to have completely saved the Raptors.

Kirilenko's joining gave the Raptors the capital to limit Big Zhi's performance, and as long as Big Zhi can't explode on the Knicks side, it will be difficult for them to play a decent offensive efficiency.

Fortunately, the old Thomas got the rebound from the idiot Evans in the hands of Combe before the start of the game. With the huge rebound advantage, the Knicks were able to capture the two cities.

If there is no advantage in rebounding, the Knicks may have been swept away right now.

In the next two games, both sides won the next game, and officially entered the tiebreaker.

In the tiebreaker, Big Zhi scored 37 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists, while Evans scored 7 points and 18 rebounds. Unfortunately, such statistics still failed to lead the Knicks to win.

Carter scored 33 points for the Raptors, and Parker scored 29 points on Payton Sr.

Relying on the excellent performance of the backcourt duo, as well as the defense of Boozer and Kirilenko, the Raptors beat their old rival Knicks 101:97 in the tiebreaker.

After the game, Lao Deng's face turned green with anger, and he returned to the locker room angrily without shaking hands with the opposing players.

He was angry that the Raptors got Boozer and Kirilenko from Comb, and their combat power increased directly. Without this deal, he firmly believed that his Knicks would definitely beat the Raptors.

Even the Raptors may not be eligible to play against the Knicks in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

He refused to answer the phone calls from Kong Bu's side. He was really angry this time.

Kumbu is currently preparing for the Eastern Conference finals and the finals, and he is not in the mood to appease Lao Deng, so he can only wait until the end of the season.

……

The Raptors and Philadelphia 76ers meet in the Eastern Conference Finals.

This duel is full of topics, can the Raptors end the Philadelphia dynasty?Let the Raptors become the only dynasty in the past decade?

In the grievances between Bus and Carter, who will have the last laugh?
The duel between the old flying man Jordan and the new flying man Carter, can the old flying man Jordan stand up?
After the first game, almost all of these questions had their results.

The Raptors don't seem to have the capital to end the Philadelphia 76ers' dynasty at all. After they defeated the Knicks with difficulty, facing the Philadelphia 76ers doesn't seem to be an enemy at all.

Especially inside, the gap is too big, Boozer can't stand alone, Yao Ming and the bus will blow his head.

The Raptors lost extremely tragically. It seemed like a completely hopeless loss. It would be good to win one game after playing a hundred games.

In this case, of course the bus will have the last laugh.

As for the duel between the new and the old trapeze, it is obvious that the old trapeze is useless, the typical person has a loose buttocks, and he can't do anything, and the old Jordan is not Carter's opponent on both offense and defense.

But Carter didn't have a good life, Jordan couldn't get him, and Combe immediately put Gerrard on Carter.

Gerrard cast all his anger on Carter for being blown up by Robinson in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Can't get Robinson with a height of 208, and can't get you Carter?
Not to mention that Carter, a flying man, cannot really fly without wings. Even if he could fly, Gerald's tendons would have to drag him out of the air.

On the other hand, Parker played fairly well. He scored 21 points in the game, but Iverson scored 29 points and 13 assists in the game, which was obviously better than Parker's performance.

One game directly shattered the Raptors' championship dream up and down.

After they defeated the Knicks, they thought they had the ability to compete with Kumbu, but who would have thought that the end would be so miserable.

The gap inside the paint is so big that ordinary people can't understand. When Yao Ming can take 20 shots in a game and hit 16 of them, it doesn't matter what team comes.

In the next three games, the Raptors were brutally abused in almost every game.

It didn't look like the Raptors were even as good as the Philadelphia 76ers' Eastern Conference semifinal opponent, the Pistons.

At least the Pistons could cause a little trouble for Kumbu, but the Raptors didn't cause a little bit of trouble for Kumbu. After four games, Kumbu fell asleep more than ten times.

In the three-round series, the Philadelphia 76ers played twelve games and won all of them, sweeping their opponents in three consecutive rounds.

The finals in the West have already begun.

The Lakers eliminated the Spurs very easily. The current Spurs are not the Spurs under normal circumstances. They lack Parker and Ginobili in the team, and the troika is missing two wheels. The overall combat power is not bad because of the existence of Duncan. Where to go, but if you want to beat the Lakers, it is definitely a dream.

The Suns and the Kings also fought seven games, and the Suns finally won with difficulty.

In fact, after UAE entered the league, it has been compared with King Webber. It is true that the styles of the two are somewhat similar.

It's just that after this round of competition, no one will compare the two of them.

Arab League is stronger than Webber, and it's not even a little bit stronger. The matchup on the field is completely crushing.

If it weren't for the King's overall lineup being more dominant, the King might be swept by the Suns.
