I am so Accurate

See you in the finals if possible!

After hanging up the phone, Sun Hao was also thinking about this sentence.

After Yao Ming won the Rookie of the Year award, he also began to look forward to the championship!

However, compared with Sun Hao, Yao Ming has a better chance of entering the finals.

The current opponent of the Wizards is the Nets.

Although the Nets in history reached the finals this year, it has something to do with their opponents.

That year, the Nets' opponent in the Eastern Conference Finals was the Celtics without Carlisle or Gasol.

Then, they were swept 4-0 by the Lakers in the Finals.

When fans choose the most disparate or worst team in the finals, the Cavaliers team led by James in the 06-07 season is always mentioned repeatedly.

But in fact, this year's Nets are also very different.

Once across the Nets, the Wizards' opponent is the Celtics or Pistons.

Both are newly emerging teams, and they are obviously not at the same level as the Lakers, Kings, and Spurs.

However, Yao Ming has said so, and he has to work hard.

Although his side is very difficult, people always have dreams!

Just like the big goal they set before playing the Timberwolves, they have completed the small goal of entering the Western Conference semifinals, and then, it is the new small goal of revenge for the Spurs!

"Remember what I said at the beginning of the season?"

As soon as the team arrived in San Antonio, Nelson Sr. organized team training.

And before the training started, he rarely started the pre-match mobilization in advance.

"I said, no matter how you play other teams, you must fight to the death when you see the Spurs!"

"What they did to us in the playoffs last season, stepping, hurting people, kicking us out of the playoffs, but now, God gave us a second chance."

"Beat 'em, beat 'em, beat the shit out of 'em, tell 'em we're a better team than them!"

I have to say that Old Nelson's violent temper is really suitable for speeches.

In a few words, Sun Hao felt that his adrenaline was a little bursting.

Old Nelson would have been an excellent Chicken Soup coach if he wanted to, but it doesn't have to be.

After this bowl of thick chicken soup, the Mavericks' morale was high during training.

With that kind of excitement, Sun Hao felt that the Spurs would definitely be surprised tonight.

Game day the next day, 6pm.

There is still an hour to start the game, and the players are making final preparations in the locker room.

Sun Hao put on his Adidas.Sun.hao exclusive boots.

Compared with the Adidas shoes he wore before, these shoes are obviously much more comfortable.

The cards of the signature sneakers are indeed different.

In the locker room, everyone else made their own moves.

Nash brought Thomas' jersey to the locker room and hung it there.

Nash even said a prayer over it.

There is also Nowitzki, who rubs his feet more frequently than usual.

Excitement is excitement, but everyone looks a little nervous.

Looking around, Sabonis should be the calmest of all.

"Annie?"

At this moment, Sun Hao heard Wang Zhizhi's voice.

He turned his head, and then saw an unlikely person at the door of the locker room.

Anne, daughter of Nelson Jr.

Little Nelson stood behind Annie with a distressed expression on his face.

In theory, Annie couldn't go out, let alone come to San Antonio.

Both Sun Hao and Wang Zhizhi got up and went over immediately, and the others also stood up one after another.

Not everyone has seen Anne, but they have all heard about Little Nelson's daughter.

Their expressions of surprise were no less than Sun Hao's.

Annie and Wang Zhizhi and Sun Hao are very familiar, so they came over to give them a hug, and then greeted others one after another.

Although she looks bad-faced, she is a very cheerful girl in her bones.

At this time, Sun Hao chatted with Little Nelson.

"She insisted on coming, but I couldn't stop her. I consulted a doctor and did all the protection I could."

Little Nelson's words made people feel distressed.

"She won't go to the scene?"

Sun Hao felt that it would definitely not work for Annie to go to the scene, especially if it was an away game.

"She will watch the live broadcast in the projection room, and I have communicated with the arena."

Sun Hao nodded after listening.

"Sun, come on."

The game is about to start, and the team members are ready to set off. Before the start, Annie made a cheering gesture to Sun Hao.

Sun Hao successively gave her many DVDs and books, all of which are very important to her.

Sun Hao stretched out his hand and returned a cheering gesture to her.

He could actually understand why Anne came to watch the game.

People live, not just to live.

And after chatting with Little Nelson, he actually already had a determination in his heart.

Tonight's game must be watched happily by Annie.

The ATT arena was packed, and the fans were extremely excited to enter the Western Conference semifinals.

Su Qun and Zhang Weiping also came to the scene, and they were waiting at the entrance of the player tunnel early.

When Sun Hao came out, they immediately went up to interview.

Knowing that there are hundreds of millions of Chinese fans on the other side of the camera, Sun Hao cooperates every time.

Those are real people.

"Sun Hao, what do you think our Mavericks' chances of winning tonight are?"

"100%."

Zhang Weiping asked routine questions, but Sun Hao's answers were routine at all!

This 100% is simply setting the flag!

However, very domineering.

"Why?"

"No reason, it's just like Zhang guiding you, feeling, Zhang Weiping's law."

Sun Hao explained with a smile.

The front is still arrogant, but the next second is very humorous.

On the contrary, Zhang Weiping was amused and laughed.

After the interview, looking at Sun Hao's back, Su Qun couldn't help scratching his head.

He always felt that Sun Hao tonight was different from the Sun Hao they usually knew.

He turned his head and asked Zhang Weiping, who also shook his head.

"It is said that Shibie will be admired in three days, but now that Shibie has been in a year, let us wait and see!"

Zhang Weiping didn't know about Annie's existence, but his sixth sense had emerged.

Tonight's game will be very interesting.

The scene quickly entered the opening ceremony, and the visiting team and the home team started to introduce their appearances one after another.

The fans in San Antonio also cheered constantly, especially when Duncan played, the cheers reached a peak.

This season is the most dazzling season since Duncan entered the league.

He averaged 25.5 points, 12.7 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 2.5 blocks per game.

This is the kind that can compete for regular season MVP.

Moreover, the Nets and Kings, who have a better record than the Spurs, do not have the kind of players with explosive data, and the chances are great.

After the opening ceremony, the starting lineups of the two teams were also released one after another.

The Spurs, Parker, Steve Smith, Bruce Bowen, Duncan, David Robinson.

It is worth mentioning that after the Spurs attached importance to three-pointers, Steve Smith had a second spring in the regular season.

He averaged 3.2 shots per game from outside the three-point line and hit 1.5 times. His 47.2% shooting rate set a new career record. At the same time, this three-point shooting rate also ranked first in the NBA.

For the Mavericks, Nash, Sun Hao, Finley, Nowitzki, Sabonis!

Old Nelson has changed!

He directly let the veteran Sabonis start!

This formation was somewhat beyond Popovich's expectations.

The game between Zhuge Nelson and Sima Weiqi started again.

"beep!"

Amidst the cheers of the fans, Duncan turned the ball back to the Spurs' half.

The game begins!

"Hey, look, the Spurs inside-out!"

Accompanied by Zhang Weiping's shouts in the broadcast booth, the Spurs fed the ball to Duncan inside as soon as they attacked the frontcourt.

Their style of play hasn't changed from the beginning of the season, or from the past few years.

Duncan is their strongest weapon.

However, Duncan faced Sabonis, and it was not as easy as imagined.

Although Sabonis is old, Lian Po is old enough to eat. The big man successfully blocked Duncan's attack at the basket and took a defensive rebound.

In the first round, old Nelson's transformation worked!

Since ancient times, Zhuge has always been better than Sima.

The Mavericks played in the frontcourt, and Popovich was taken aback by the tactical movement.

Is this still the old Nelson and the Mavericks he knew?

However, the Spurs' defense is indeed strong, much better than the Timberwolves.

This is also the issue of the player's defensive ability that Sanders lamented in previous games.

The Spurs lineup has only defensive strengths and no defensive weaknesses.

Especially after Bowen joined, his single defense and auxiliary defense are very good, making up for the weakness of the Spurs' perimeter defense.

The Mavericks' tactical moves took a lot of energy, but they didn't get a good shot.

The ball finally reached Nowitzki's hands. Nowitzki hit the golden rooster with his back and went wide after being interfered by Duncan.

Although Dirk Nowitzki has developed this technology, it will take time before it becomes successful.

Duncan hit Sabonis again, this time he hit the board with a signature 45° angle and finally scored the ball.

Finley also failed to make a mid-range shot from the frontcourt.

Looking back, Duncan continued to hit Sabonis, but the shot still missed.

More than two minutes into the game, the score was 2-0.

Popovich sat firmly on the bench, smiling with his chin on his hands.

It seems that Sabonis has a miraculous effect, defending Duncan for two rounds in three rounds, but the veteran has limited physical strength and cannot last long.

And this slow pace after the opening is his favorite.

Grinding and grinding, the Mavericks were ground to death.

In fact, the Trail Blazers, who played against the Spurs in the first round, were restricted by the Spurs to an average of no more than 85 points per game, and they were forced to die.

"Give me the ball."

At this moment, Nash, who had just advanced to the frontcourt, heard Sun Hao's shout.

He turned his head and saw that Sun Hao's eyes were full of fighting spirit.

He knew it had something to do with old Nelson's chicken soup before the game, and it had something to do with Anne's arrival.

Moreover, the Spurs' defense is much stronger than the Timberwolves, and it is difficult to have a chance by relying on positional tactics.

At this time, a single point breakthrough is a better choice.

He passed the ball without hesitation, and then signaled to pull it away.

Sun Hao received the ball, and Smith pounced on him immediately, not allowing Sun Hao to retreat for three-pointers.

He played from the Blazers to the Spurs, and he is very familiar with Sun Hao, an old opponent.

The Spurs also defended very outside.

Popovich did not use zone defense. This defensive strategy is the same as last year and at the beginning of the season. It mainly defends three-pointers and the basket, and takes certain mid-range opportunities.

After Sun Hao dribbled the ball continuously, he took a step back to look at the frame.

This was a very deceptive move, and Smith was afraid of Sun Hao's three-pointer and rushed forward.

Sun Hao lowered his head and took the first step to accelerate, successfully throwing off Smith's defense and breaking into a high position.

Unguarded, he made a mid-range shot from a sudden stop.

"Shua!"

Sun Hao broke the scoring drought for the Mavericks.

Duncan continued to hit Sabonis inside, and the hook hit the board after continuous steps.

Sabonis, the inside defense is really strong!

It is said that he is old and is about to retire, but it is only two years ago that O'Neill is tough!

Stone Buddha, which is rare, was suppressed.

But it's not surprising that singles inside the three-second zone, height and wingspan are more important than skills.

Duncan's tactical arrangement has been playing in the three-second zone so that he can't play to his advantage.

Looking back, Sun Hao continued to single-play Smith. This time Smith followed Sun Hao, but he still failed to prevent Sun Hao from scoring.

Although Sun Hao's shot was changed a little slower under Jordan's suggestion.

But that's relative.

Single-action shooting is a level faster than double-action shooting.

"Shua!"

Sun Hao's mid-range shot, go in again!

2 to 4!

After he scored 4 points in a row, the Mavericks overtook the score!

In a defensive battle, Sun Hao played a clear flow personally.

Popovich got up at this time and made a new tactical signal to Parker.

The Spurs attacked the frontcourt again, and Duncan didn't go inside to force Sabonis any more.

Supported by Duncan's free throw line, Smith made a three-pointer by catching the ball from the screen.

"when!"

It's a pity that his shot didn't make it.

In fact, after entering the playoffs, Smith's three-pointers began to loosen.

In the first round against the Trail Blazers, his shooting percentage plummeted to 30%.

Sabonis took the defensive rebound and made a long throw for the first time.

After receiving the ball, Sun Hao pushed Smith forward to the frontcourt.

He made a quick stop at the three-point line and scared Smith half to death and made a save.

He took advantage of the opportunity to break into the middle distance.

Parker, who was retreating on the right, retreated directly to the basket after seeing it.

After Sun Hao saw it, he immediately stopped and chased him in the middle distance.

"Shua!"

The basketball falls into the bag firmly and enjoys silky smoothness.

Sun Hao hit three mid-range shots in a row!

In the future small ball era, three-pointers are extremely respected, and even the Houston team developed a so-called "magic ball theory" under the leadership of D'Antoni.

It was a set of tactics that completely abandoned the mid-range and pushed the three-pointers and the basket to the extreme.

Even many fans of the Houston team put forward the theory that three-pointers are one point more than two-pointers, why they should shoot mid-range shots if they can shoot three-pointers, and mid-range shots can't kill people.

But it turns out that theory is useful in the regular season, and all sorts of diarrhea in the playoffs.

The main reason is that the whole world knows how to defend against you.

Especially in the playoffs, the defensive scale is defensive, and the beard whistle is no longer there.

No matter how good you are, the three-point shooting percentage against the defense cannot always be high.

And because of the abandonment of the middle distance, there is not even an offensive tactic to adjust.

If that Houston team meets this Spurs, they can be called daddy.

This is also the more important reason why Sun Hao practiced hard in the middle distance last summer.

And that's not just for the Spurs.

As for the inability to kill people in the middle distance?

You have to ask the Spurs in history.

In this year's history, the Spurs were killed by Kobe's mid-range shot.
