I am so Accurate

The first thing old Nelson did after he came back was to find Dampier and calm him down.

Then in the next game against the Spurs, Dampier returned to the starting lineup and played 26 minutes.

That's his average minutes per game this season.

The signal conveyed here is self-evident that the old Nelson has completely given up on Johnson's set.

Johnson's "Rashomon" also quickly drew a terminator.

And the fans seem to have figured it out, since they can win, it is obviously better for old Nelson to avoid internal turmoil.

Johnson's short coaching journey has come to an end, but after the return of the old Nelson, he is still the team's assistant coach.

The middle episode did not affect his status in the Mavericks.

After all, apart from Dampier, no one else has any opinions, and even the data of Sun Hao and Bodi Loga are still going up.

As for Nowitzki, when Kenny Smith questioned Johnson before, he stood up to defend Johnson.

"No matter what starting lineup we use, we should play better."

No way, Nowitzki is so good.

But it was precisely because Nowitzki did this that the second thing Nelson did after returning was to increase Nowitzki's shot rights.

Old Nelson has coached the NBA for so many years. Although he has a bad temper, he still understands these ways of the world.

You can't wrong the core of the team without giving him some compensation.

The rest of the Mavericks were fine with it, too.

And in fact, everyone knows that this is likely to be the season when Nowitzki hits the MVP.

Such a change did not affect the progress of the Mavericks, and the team continued to make great strides.

So in the end, it was more of a blip in the Mavericks' season.

Nelson Sr. is back, and the interlude is over, and it doesn't look like it will have any impact on the Mavericks.

Business as usual, the season continues.

Time flies, and it is early April in a blink of an eye.

The regular season of the 2002~2003 season came to an end.

Unlike the previous seasons where they used frequent tricks in order to rank in the playoffs at the last moment, this season seems to be much calmer.

In the East, the Wizards ranked first with a record of 50 wins and 32 losses.

The 50-win Eastern Conference is the first in the history of the NBA's non-shortened season.

On the one hand, this shows that the overall strength of the Eastern Conference is not strong this season, and on the other hand, it also shows that the strengths of several Eastern Conference teams are very close.

The Nets ranked second with 49 wins.

Kidd's pre-season 720-degree turn speech was finally successfully rehearsed, and their record...is exactly the same as last season.

The Pacers ranked third with 48 wins. With tough defense and rising strength, they are opponents that no one in the East wants to encounter in the playoffs.

The Celtics also have a record of 48 wins, but they rank fourth because of their win-loss relationship with the Pacers.

The 76ers rank fifth with 47 wins.

The fight with the Lakers in the Finals two years ago is still vivid, but two years later, Iverson and his 76ers have changed beyond recognition.

Many players from the former team, including Dikembe Mutombo, have left the team.

In this 76ers team, Iverson still averages 27.6 points per game. In addition to him, the second leader of the team is Keith Van Horn, the second pick of the season who once had a moment with Duncan in 1997.

Van Horn is known as "Bird's successor". He can swing from the second position to the fourth position. He is quite versatile and performed very well in the first few seasons before entering the league.

However, he suffered an injury attack after that and his state declined, and now he is mediocre in the 76ers.

This position means that they have to play against the defending champion of the Eastern Conference last season, and the team's prospects are not optimistic.

The Hornets also ranked sixth with 47 wins.

The Pistons rank seventh with 46 wins.

The Magic won 43 wins, and the Bucks beat the 42-win Bucks to get a playoff spot.

First-round matchups here in the East:

Wizards VS Magic, Jordan and McGrady, one of his hand-picked successors, Yao Ming and McGrady, this group of duels is full of topics;

Nets VS Pistons, the head-to-head confrontation between the two defensive teams;

Pacers VS Hornets;

Celtics VS 76ers;

In the West, the Mavericks have the best record in history, 62 wins and 20 losses.

Well, the history of the Mavericks is a bit weak.

But also because of its weakness, what Dallas fans see is the strongest Mavericks ever.

And, their strongest trio.

In the fifth year of his career, Nowitzki scored MVP-level data of 26.6 points, 9.7 rebounds and 3 assists, shooting 48% from the field and 40% from three-pointers.

There is no doubt that this is the pinnacle of Nowitzki's career so far.

In the third year of his career, Sun Hao averaged 23.8 points, 5.8 assists and 1.2 steals per game, shooting 45.9% from the field and 42% from three-pointers.

The data of the two has revealed the potential of the previous OK combination.

Also, they have Bodi Loga.

Bodi Loga averaged 15.6 points, 5.7 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game, shooting 50% from the field and 35% from three-pointers.

Together, the three averaged 66 points and 14.2 assists per game!

Dallas show.time trio, worthy of the name!

All these have made Dallas fans have unlimited expectations for the team's performance in this year's playoffs.

The Kings are second in the Western Conference with 59 wins.

Adelman's Preston system is still turbulent, and no one dares to underestimate the team that can fight the Lakers in seven games.

The Spurs are third in the West with 60 wins.

Q: Why do the Spurs have the better record but only come in third?

Answer: According to the existing ranking rules, the champion of the competition area is automatically ranked the top two in the division.

Q: Why the top two?

A: Because the Bobcats have not entered the league at this time, there are only two divisions in the east and west of the league.

This kind of ranking rules will be complained about in the future, but the NBA is a commercial league, and Stern still has to consider the ratings of the playoffs.

Take the CBA as an example. If no team from the South appears in the finals, the ratings of the finals will naturally drop.

The same is true for the NBA.

The competition area is divided according to the region. If there is no team from that region in the playoffs, the ratings can be imagined.

We must know that this is not the era when the Internet is highly developed in the future, and this kind of rule actually has a very background of the times.

However, it can be seen from this that the strength of the Spurs this season has improved significantly compared to last year.

Just like what Sun Hao and Nowitzki said, the growth of Ginobili, Parker, and Stephen Jackson has made their previously weak perimeter stronger, and they no longer have weaknesses.

The Spurs in history also won the championship this year, and the reason can be seen from this.

The Lakers are fourth with a 52-30 record.

The performance of the Dynasty Lakers this season can be said to be surprising.

Kobe frantically rushed to shoot, the intensified conflict between the OK combination, and the sluggish state of the role players.

Such a record has made many people put a big question mark on their four consecutive championships.

However, no one dares to underestimate them in the playoffs. After all, the combination of Phil Jackson and OK represents strength.

The Timberwolves are fifth with a record of 51 wins.

Well, Garnett said mmp in his heart at this time.

Last year, they were swept by the Mavericks in the first round with 58 tragedies. This season, they will directly PK Dynasty Lakers in the first round.

Which God arranged this fate?

The Blazers are sixth with a record of 50 wins.

Although there seems to be a tendency to disintegrate from the coaching staff to the players, the thin camel is bigger than the horse, and the "Portland Prison" is still a difficult bone in the playoffs.

The Jazz are seventh with a record of 47 wins.

The addition of Matt Halprin, the development of Kirilenko, and the spirit of Stockton's "final season" has been inspired.

Although the Jazz are old, they are still strong.

The Warriors beat the Suns to advance to the playoffs with a record of 45 wins.

The addition of D'Antoni has had an immediate effect on the improvement of the Warriors.

This team is like tailor-made for him.

And his running and bombing is much more thorough than the old Nelson, and he is the kind of team in the true sense of "the lower limit can be very low, and the upper limit can also be high".

Matchup in the West:

Lakers VS Timberwolves, Garnett's miserable playoff journey...again?

The Kings VS Jazz, in the eyes of experts, this is the most suspenseful group in the first round of the Western Conference;

Spurs VS Trail Blazers, the Spurs have been avoiding the Trail Blazers for the past two years, but finally hit;

The Mavericks VS Warriors, the offseason trade, the former three friends in the Dallas grass, and the duel between the running and bombing teams, this is definitely the West, no, it should be the most interesting group in this year's playoffs.

Sun Hao actually didn't expect to face the Warriors in the first round.

But it seems that fate arranged it like this.

just nash...

"Steve won't blame us, will he?"

When he started preparing for the playoffs, Nowitzki couldn't help but speak.

The jealous Steve fought against them in the first round of the playoffs.

That feeling... It's like opening the door of a hotel room and watching your ex-boyfriend shy with your new girlfriend.

"I can only feel sorry for him."

What Sun Hao said was exactly the same as when he was in the World Championships.

At the beginning, Dirk Nowitzki was wronged for the Chinese team's medal win, but now for the Mavericks' championship win, Nash can only be wronged.

Nowitzki nodded, he thought so too.

There is a gap in the record and strength of the two teams, but Nelson is very cautious.

This caution is also entirely justified.

The Warriors' offense is the same as the weapon damage value, and it is easy to hit a crit.

If you underestimate them, you may not even know how to die.

And if they get the best record in team history but suffer a black eight, the team can be disbanded next season.

Speaking of history, the Mavericks were really hacked by the Warriors. At that time, the head coach of the Warriors was Old Nelson.

...

Before the start of the playoffs, as in the past, the league announced the first batch of season awards, the most improved award and the best head coach.

It is these two awards that allow fans to further focus on the matchup between the Mavericks and the Warriors.

With 28% of the votes, Arenas beat Jazz's Matt Halperin, Spurs' Tony Parker, and teammate Troy Murphy, and was elected the Most Improved Award!

Warriors owner Chris Cohan is about to wake up from his dream.

After so many years of sinking, the Warriors finally show signs of rising again.

And he has to thank Cuban for sending Nash.

The most improved award belongs to the Warriors, and the best head coach belongs to the Mavericks without any suspense.

Old Nelson, after leading the Mavericks to a record-breaking record in team history, was successfully elected as the best head coach of the season.

This is the first time since he coached the Mavericks and the fourth time in his coaching career.

In this year in history, the Mavericks had the same record as the Spurs, but because of the relationship with the Spurs, they could only rank third.

In the end, the best head coach of the year was also won by Popovich.

Niu Mi that year can be said to be half dead from anger.

But the joining of Sun Hao has changed history, and the old Nelson has ushered in the highlight moment of his Mavericks career.

But if he wants to add the most word before the highlight, he has to completely crush the words Popovich said to him two years ago.

"Your way, you can't win a championship."

The first step for him to do that is to knock out the Warriors, the team he created "RUN.TMC" before.

On April 19, the season playoffs officially kicked off.

Wizards VS Magic in the East, Celtics VS 76ers; Mavericks VS Warriors in the West, Lakers VS Timberwolves on the first day.

Almost every group of these four games is full of highlights, and it can be said that it has attracted the attention of the audience from the very beginning.

There is a time difference between the east and the west of the United States, and the game in the east will start first.

The Celtics and 76ers started first, and they gave all fans a strong dose of medicine from the beginning.

Pierce scored 40 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists in the opening game!

However, he failed to lead the team to victory.

Because on the opposite side, Iverson blasted 55 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists, and his shooting percentage was 21 of 32!

His breakthroughs and mid-range shots after the pick-and-roll were almost flawless, completely ignoring Gasol and Walker.

Although not as dazzling as two years ago, Iverson's dominance in the East is still there.

Iverson and Pierce have made enough heat for this year's playoffs.

The next game between the Wizards and the Magic was even more unexpected.

In terms of strength, the Wizards are obviously stronger than the Magic.

But in this game, Tracy McGrady scored 43 points on 15 of 28 shots, playing against Jordan who was rarely able to find his way.

And Gordon Girisek, one of the two first-year players the Magic traded for Miller, also scored 22 points and became McGrady's best helper.

In the end, the two teamed up to help the Magic beat the Wizards with an upset 98 to 95, giving the opponent a big blow.

In fact, after watching the game, you will find that the sentence in the future is really not deceiving.

Dianfengmai, Like, Lilizhan, and Dilisha are not just memes.

Tracy McGrady in the peak season really couldn't defend. The Wizards used single defense and double-teaming, but none of them worked in the end.

In fact, in this year in history, McGrady single-handedly pushed the Pistons to the ground at that time.

Peak Mai is so unreasonable.

The two series in the Eastern Conference played vigorously, and then followed by the Western Conference.

The game between the Mavericks and the Warriors kicked off at the National Airline Center in Dallas.

Nash revisited his hometown, and a love and killing drama quietly kicked off.
