Legend of Tomorrow

The 5-8 in the west are the Timberwolves, Lakers, Trail Blazers, Grizzlies.

Although the Trail Blazers lacked Zac Randolph, they also won 48 victories by relying on a group of veterans.

The Grizzlies have 47 wins. They have entered the playoffs for the first time since the team was founded. Looking back on the team's growth, they have to say that they are one step at a time. They have achieved what they have achieved today. They have only won two games less than the defending champion Lakers. .

9-14 are the Jazz, Rockets, Supersonics, Warriors, Clippers, Nuggets.

In the first round of the Western Conference, the Spurs vs Grizzlies, Suns vs Trail Blazers, Mavericks vs Lakers, Kings vs Timberwolves.

This time, there were two strong dialogues in the first round of the Western Conference. The Timberwolves won the next draw. If the Kings were not injured in the core rotation in the regular season, they are fully capable of competing for the league first. The 50-win Timberwolves are very difficult to enter the second round.

The Lakers managed to make it to the playoffs in the second half, but it was difficult to advance to the second round against the Mavericks in the first round. The two teams line up against each other, the Mavericks can't resist the ok combination, the Lakers can't resist Nash and Nowitzki, and experts predict that the two sides will play seven games.

From this year, the first round of the NBA playoffs has been changed to 7 wins and 4 wins. Before the start of the battle, the Lakers were in a bad situation. Everyone on the team was questioned, including "Jenson" Phil Jackson and Kobe Bryant, who had a career peak.

As before, it is a "blind play" tactic. The famous coach Jackson has become a bad coach this season.

Kobe was evaluated by experts as not the core of the Lakers tactics, he is only good at singles, can not drive teammates.

Kobe's personal ability is unquestionable. In February, he scored 40+ 10 times in 14 games in a single month, including 9 consecutive 40+ and two 50+. He finally played 41.5 minutes and scored 30.3 points, 6.8 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 2.2 steals. However, the Lakers only had 49 wins. He did not win any statistics. The only gain in the regular season was to attract a group of fans who like to watch the score.

The Lakers completely ruled the league in the first two seasons. This season, they have to rely on hard work in the first round, and the players are not feeling well. Even if they advanced to the second round, they were not sure to win against the Suns. It was also a shame to be eliminated by Guo Xu's team.

The Eastern Conference team's record is much worse, the Pistons ranked first with only 50 wins, 2-8 are the Nets, Pacers, 76ers, Hornets, Celtics, Bucks, Magic.

9-15 are the Knicks, Wizards, Eagles, Bulls, Heat, Raptors, Cavaliers.

The Wizards are the most disappointing team in the regular season. Michael Jordan retired and will not come back.

The Knicks didn't make the playoffs with nearly 100 million in salary, and they will definitely have to change blood in the summer. The star point guard Marbury got a lower rating, no way, who let him leave which team, the old club will rise immediately? No one in the league can do this except him.

In the regular season, the king of the statistics came out. McGrady won the scoring championship, averaging 32.1 points, 6.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.7 steals. The efficiency value of 30.3 also ranked first.

Guo Xu won the assists king, averaging 26.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, 11.5 assists and 1.8 steals. His star data has improved after the game, the efficiency value is 29, slightly less than O'Neal's 29.5, ranking third in the league.

Pistons center Ben Wallace won the rebound and block caps, averaging 6.9 points, 15.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.4 steals and 3.2 blocks, the blue-collar fighter.

The 76ers' Allen Iverson won the steals for the third consecutive year, averaging 2.7 per game.

The Suns rested for three days, and the coaching staff determined the roster for the playoffs.

Centers: Nene, Scott Williams, Stadamer.

Power forwards: Gugliota, Tony Kukoc, Haslem.

Small forwards: Sean Marion, Kirisek.

Shooting guards: Joe Johnson, Casey Jacobs, Morris Evans.

Point guards: Guo Xu, Ralph Alston.

The excluded power forward Chris Crawford made 10 appearances, averaging 3 minutes per game, pure marginalist.

His contract is due to expire in 2004, the management did not expect him to play well, only to clear the salary space for the future, and to send away the hard-paying Hardaway.

The Suns have already made money, and Hardaway has been torn by the Eagles and "Big Dog" Robinson for more than half a season this season, before being injured. Colangelo and his son screamed luck, if they had left Hardaway, they didn't know how much trouble they would cause.

On April 19, the Suns vs. Trail Blazers opened their first game in Phoenix. The home team led from start to finish, and finally scored a 106-87 start.

Stardamer scored 24 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists in his first playoff game. He performed poorly with the Blazers' core Rashid Wallace, who had 26 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists.

Guo Xu and Stoudemire became very acquainted after running in the regular season. As long as Guo Xu attracted Rashid to prevent pick-and-roll and scored a ball to Stoudemire, he could hit the basket. Commit.

Davis, 34, was not as athletic as before, and was crushed by Stoudemire's talent. When the Suns played small ball tactics, Davis was also struggling to defend Marion. He was a 211cm big man and his speed was not as good as Marion.

The veteran Sabonis is an excellent meat shield. He is good at the restricted area, but he will not enter the basket as soon as he plays. The two defenders get rid of the defender by the cover and throw the ball.

The Suns did decently on the defensive end. Guo Xu countered "Little Flying Squirrel" Stardamer to prevent a breakthrough.

The speed of the "Little Flying Squirrel" last season was comparable to that of Guo Xu. He was in a bad state after being injured this season. Most of the season was muddy. Guo Xu was obviously faster than him in the playoffs.

Pippen is old, and both offensive and defensive sides have fallen seriously, only playing with experience. Shooting guard Bunch Wells is in excellent health and shooting average. Both of them have no advantage over Joe Johnson and Marion, and the shooting rate is not high.

The bench contested both sides. The Blazers scored with McGinnis, Derek Anderson and Ruben Patterson. Sun Nene, Kukchi and Alstom also performed well.

In the second game, the Sun won easier, 115 to 90 victory.

Guo Xu blew his wind. He made 8 of 14 three-pointers. He scored 40 points, 3 rebounds, 11 assists and 3 steals. The horrible two doubles finished with 15 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists.

Guo Xu can shoot into the small guard when he is in the wind. He can't do it without a double-team. When he scores a ball, he can be free. Three of his four starting teammates can make three-pointers. Most of the benches also have a range.

In Portland away game, Guo Xu continued to show his power in the third game, 11 of 20 shots, 5 of 10 three-pointers, 7 of 6 free throws, scored 33 points, 3 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals, the team 5 people scored in double figures .

Although the Trail Blazers also scored in double figures on www.wuxiaspot.com ~ but lacked super scorers, the most scored was substitute swingman Patterson with 19 points and a 96-105 home defeat.

In the fourth game, the Blazers finally pulled back to a city at home, the Sun players collectively slumped, only Guo Xu and Stoudemire scored in double figures, losing 88 to 98.

However, NBA has never been able to make a comeback when it is 0 to 3 behind, so the ending is already set. The Blazers players who went to the Suns at home were under great pressure and played badly, losing 95 to 108.

Guo Xu and Marion scored 20+, and there were two substitutes.

The swingman Jacquesson also had a draw. He made 6 of 10 shots, 3 of 5 3-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws. He only scored 17 points in 22 minutes.

Nene played 25 minutes, 8 of 9 shots, 3 of 4 free throws, and scored 19 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks.

The Suns advanced to the second round with a total score of 4-1. Guo Xu **** the lead record of Kidd without any effort.
