Chapter 1023 Warrior Rocket 2 Battle

Chapter 1023

The battle between the Celtics and the Cavaliers not only contributed to the wonderful game for countless fans, but also ignited the topic of iron and blood.

Especially for some changes in the league's offensive end, in the words of some retired veteran players, even meritorious and historical players, the current NBA has put the cart before the horse.

What do fans want to see?

What qualities should a good game have?

It is undeniable.

A beautiful offense will make countless people feel happy, but after watching the game, there are only a handful of shots that can really be remembered.

why?

When there is only offense and dazzling skills in the whole game, the quality of the game has actually been reduced.

Many people now say that the NBA has changed, and it has become less exciting.

It's like comparing the two major leagues, WWE and UFC.

Maybe more people like WWE with a script, but in fact, more people talk about it the most after each UFC session begins.

Another why?

Because the one that can directly hit the soul is always the most unpretentious, direct and simple one.

Take the Pistons Five Tigers as an example.

It is no exaggeration to say that if they don't forget their original intentions, I am afraid that the Pistons will not decline year after year in the future.

The civilian team is their label, but iron and blood defense is the foundation of their team.

Even though their game was a bit "ugly", whether it was Billups back then, or the insider Shuangsha Big Ben and Roaring Tianzun, everyone mentioned the Pistons, who is Isiah Thomas, who is Joe Dumars, Even who is Bill Lambir, fans who watch the game for a short time will basically think of Big Ben and the others.

why?

That's the beauty of basketball.

so.

The development of basketball is going in a better direction, but if you change the essence of basketball into a fancy way of making money, you will eventually make your own path narrower and narrower.

so.

This game between the Celtics and the Cavaliers is like a dusty old wine, the more it tastes, the more fragrant it becomes.

of course.

This is what the old fans on the Internet think. According to the young fans, this is called basketball.

Times are different after all.

After the game between the Celtics and the Cavaliers, as this topic raged, the spearhead gradually turned to the Western Conference Finals.

Because the Eastern and Western finals can be said to be the most direct confrontation on this topic.

The Celtics and Cavaliers are more or less traditional, so the Rockets and Warriors represent the state of basketball today.

at the same time.

The two teams naturally did not fall behind the Celtics and Cavaliers game.

have to say.

If you want to win, in the final analysis, you still need to defend!

The game between the Celtics and the Cavaliers did exactly that.

Not to mention how much sublimation the Warriors and Rockets got, at least they got inspiration from this game.

Because the Celtics and Cavaliers are not like their first game, it can be said to be one-sided.

In this game, apart from the wits and courage of the coaches, the defensive efforts of the players on both sides are obvious to all.

the next day.

All eyes are on Oakland.

The game between the Celtics and the Cavaliers is over, and it will be the turn of the Warriors and the Rockets.

last game.

The Rockets originally had great hopes of winning the game. They had almost no signs of collapsing in the fourth quarter of the regular season, but they still lost in the end.

There may be many reasons for the final loss of this game, but in the final analysis, the Rockets did not do enough defense in the end.

To know.

They were ahead of the Warriors for most of the time during the game, and at the last moment it was because they did not limit Curry and Thompson that they fell short.

If they can defend better and be more determined, I am afraid that they will take away a victory at the Warriors' home court.

As for this game, they must be aware of the importance of defense, and may play tougher and more cautiously.

That night.

Oracle Arena was packed, all wearing Warriors home jerseys, cheering on their favorite stars.

In the locker room.

The Rockets and Warriors are currently making arrangements for defense, as if they were influenced by the Celtics and Cavaliers.

When the coaches of both sides finish the arrangement, it will naturally be the mutual encouragement between the players.

As the leaders of the Rockets, Harden and Howard, every word they said can be said straight to the point, which aroused the excitement of the teammates.

The Warriors are somewhat reserved here, and the methods used are different.

They kept stabilizing their mentality with ridicule and jokes, and everyone looked very relaxed.

When the emotional adjustment of both sides is almost done, the game will then begin.

The appearance ceremony was very gorgeous, and the Warriors can be said to have spared no expense. It is said that the cost of this period alone has reached an astonishing one hundred thousand US dollars!

What is this concept?

At first glance, this amount of money may not be a big deal, but combined with this period of time, it may not even be 15 minutes. It takes so long to imagine what this means.

After the two sides finished singing the American national anthem, they returned to the field to make final preparations.

The guest commentators for this game are still Rick Barry, Reggie Miller, and Jeff Van Gundy. Although they are not as influential as O'Neal and the others, the lineup is already good.

soon.

The starting lineups of both sides are shown on the big screen.

The Warriors are basically the same here.

The center is Andrew Bogut, the power forward is Draymond Green, the small forward is Harrison Barnes, the shooting guard is Klay Thompson, and the point guard is Stephen Curry.

There are some slight changes on the Rockets side.

The center is Dwight Howard, the power forward should have been Terrence Jones, and they replaced Josh Smith.

The small forward is Trevor Ariza, the shooting guard is James Harden, and Patrick Beverley at the point guard still hasn't come back, so Jason Terry is still playing.

Judging from the starting lineups of the two teams, it is still the same as what was said before, in fact, the difference is not too much.

As for the thickness of the bench, it is natural that the Warriors have a slight advantage.

then.

Bogut and Howard came to the middle of the court, hugged each other as a greeting, and then they were ready.

The referee of this game is Ken Moore, who has 20 years of coaching experience.

As I said at the beginning, this guy looks like the villain robot in the Terminator, not only has a hard face, but he doesn't usually smile much.

But this is the Western Conference Finals. In order to make the two sides less nervous, Kenmore used a joking tone to bring the relaxed atmosphere first.

As for whether the players will do this, it will only be known after the game starts.

jump ball.

Bogut is no opponent at all, Howard easily won, and immediately ran to the frontcourt.
