"Hey, old guy, we've entered the Eastern Conference finals!" Yang Shuai punched Garnett hard and shouted. Quickly

"Yes, boy, that's good news, haha."

"We won!" "Here we come to the Eastern Conference Finals!"

Celtics players applauded each other on the bench before lining up to shake hands with Cavaliers players as they eliminated yet another team.

James stood at the front of the Cavaliers team, and then shook hands with the Celtics players in front of him one by one. By the sixth time, he saw Yang Shuai, paused with his hands in the air and turned his face away, but his hands were still there.

Stretched over.

The handsome guy Yang took one look at the other party's unwilling look, curled his lips, took back his half-stretched hand, and then held it with Ilgauskas behind him.

James waited for a while and found that no one was shaking hands with him. He turned his face just in time to see Yang Shuai's hand and Ilgauskas' hand separated, and then turned to Ben Wallace, with an ugly expression on his face.

Already completely black and blue. After a hasty handshake with the Celtics behind him, James quickened his steps and entered the tunnel.

Of course handsome boy Yang knew that the other party was unhappy, but so what? He was even more unhappy with James. In this case, he would definitely not give up the opportunity to ridicule the other party.

After shaking hands with the Cavaliers players, the Celtics players thanked the fans on the spot, and then entered the locker room. The originally silent locker room became lively in an instant.

"The Eastern Conference finals are great. I will be the rookie who goes the furthest this year, for sure." Yang Shuai whistled and shouted, then he punched Garnett and said, "Hey, old guy,

Are you pretending to be serious?"

Garnett grinned, "Cleveland has become a thing of the past. I'm thinking about the next round of games. We are still one step away from the finals."

Yang Shuai curled his lips, stretched and said: "Detroit Pistons? Can they stop us?"

Speaking of this, Yang Shuai suddenly stood up, came to the middle of the locker room, clapped his hands and said: "Hey, brothers, we have entered the Eastern Conference finals, how do you feel?"

The Celtics players looked at each other and yelled, "Awesome, man!"

"Very good, we have killed the people in Atlanta, we have killed the people in Cleveland, now we are going to kill the people in Detroit, right?"

"Yes, kill the Detroiters!"

"We are the best, right?" Yang Shuai raised his voice and shouted, shaking his fist.

"We are the best!" "Our goal is the championship!" "We can defeat all opponents!"

At first, everyone just had a fun mentality, but with the roars, all the Celtic players got into the state. In the end, all the players stood up with clenched fists and pushed away from the locker room.

Rivers, who came in through the door, was startled by the atmosphere. Not understanding what was going on, he shouted nervously: "What's going on, guys?"

"Hahaha!" The original passionate atmosphere changed instantly, and all the Celtic players laughed, leaving Rivers confused, but he finally understood that nothing bad happened.

"It looks like guys are really excited, and you certainly can be. I can't fault your performance in this series, it's great! It's a night for us to celebrate, but we don't

You can relax, we are only in the Eastern Conference finals, not the finals, let alone the championship. The Detroit Pistons are a strong team, so..."

"So, guys, we must be at our best and then kill them!" Yang Shuai took over Rivers' words and shouted, while other Celtics players followed suit.

"Kill them!"

After Rivers glanced at Yang Shuai, he smiled and shook his head and said, "This guy."

Celtics fans celebrated in the Garden Arena as they advanced to the next round, while Cavaliers fans were sad in front of the screen.

The elimination of the Cavaliers made those who had high hopes for James feel disappointed, but what should be said was said after the last game. Although some people still had a glimmer of hope, most people have already accepted the defeat.

the result.

James did attend the press conference this time. After saying a few words, he left in a hurry. Facing the reporters' sharp questions, he could not defend himself. Could he say, "The game was very unfair and the referee dominated it."

Competition"? In this case, he will drown in saliva.

"My condition is not good. This is the reason why we are always at a disadvantage throughout the series." James did not say that.

"The Celtics' defense is very strong. They found ways to limit my offense, which made me very passive in the game." James did not say that.

"I need more support. When I encountered double or even triple teams, no teammates stepped forward in time. We just experienced a big trade, but I think the team needs to make greater changes." James said.

Said.

Whether James admits it or not, at least in the short term, he will fade out of people's sight. Basketball fans and the media will focus on the stars and teams who are still in the playoffs.

"Yang, what do you think of this series?"

"What do you think of this series? It's too easy! Yes, it's just too easy." At the post-game press conference, when a reporter asked this question, Yang Shuai repeated it, as if he was afraid that the reporter wouldn't listen.

clear.

"They were the Eastern Conference champions last year, but that doesn't mean they have the strength to enter the finals. The only Eastern team that can enter the finals is the Boston Celtics! Detroit Pistons? They are great, but I don't think they are.

You can stop us." Young handsome man is as confident as expected, which also represents the views of the vast majority of Celtic players and fans.

The surprise in the first round and the sluggish offensive and defensive performance really worried Celtics fans for a while, but as the Celtics adjusted, they seemed to see the Celtics team that dominated the regular season again.

.

"4:1 Beat Cavaliers, Celtics Unstoppable" "Goal, Finals!" "Celtics Road to Revival" Most local media in Boston adopted this extremely confident title, and everyone realized that

, the Celtics are making steady progress on the road to the championship, they have such strength.

The Eastern Conference finals have been determined to be the Celtics versus the Pistons. The day before the Celtics versus Cavaliers game, the Pistons also eliminated Howard's Orlando Magic with a score of 4:1.

Compared with the East, the situation in the West is less clear. The game between the Lakers and the Jazz was on the same day as the game between the Celtics and the Cavaliers, but their kick-off time was later. In the end, the Lakers won the game with a total score of 3:2.

Leading the opponent and winning the Battle of Tianwang Mountain.

In another matchup, the championship Spurs encountered some trouble before the game. They were temporarily trailing the Hornets with a total score of 2:3. If they want to enter the Western Conference Finals, they need to win all the next two games.

Because the results of the Western Conference matchup have not yet come out, the Celtics and Pistons have had plenty of time to rest, and both teams have begun training specifically for each other.

The styles of the two teams, the Celtics and the Pistons, are actually very similar. Both teams are good at defense and even have overlapping star positions. Inside, the Celtics have the league's top power forward, Kevin K.

Garnett, and the Pistons are not far behind. Although Rasheed Wallace, the roaring king, has declined with age, he is still a very threatening figure at the power forward position.

At the small forward position, the Celtics have Pierce, and the Pistons also have the extremely comprehensive little prince Taishian Prince. Both of them are capable of offense and defense. Of course, in terms of pure offensive power,

Pierce is better than Prince in terms of scoring methods and ability.

As for shooting guards, Ray Allen and Richard Hamilton have similar styles. Both are good at running, but Hamilton is better at mid-range shots, while Ray Allen is more lethal from beyond the three-point line.

.However, in terms of organizing offense and attacking with the ball, Ray Allen is better than Hamilton.

Looking at these three positions alone, the Celtics' Big Three undoubtedly have the upper hand, but the Pistons also have an extremely dangerous figure, Chauncey Billups.

As the brains of the Pistons' offense, Billups has the strength of an All-Star point guard. Whether it is organizing an offense or attacking with the ball, whether it is a breakthrough or a long shot, Billups has it all, and he can do it quite well.

Although Rondo has grown rapidly this year, he cannot take advantage of Billups in the matchup. The matchup at this position is very likely to change the direction of the game.

Taking into account the strength of the starting players, the strength between the two teams is basically equal. At this time, the on-field performance of the stars is particularly important. The state is the key factor that determines who will have the upper hand in the starting lineup of the two teams.

After comparing the starting lineup, it was the turn of the bench. Although during the regular season, including the first four games against the Hawks in the first round, the outside world unanimously questioned the Celtics' bench strength, and many experts pointed out that the Celtics' offense

Too much reliance on the Big Three. However, with the stable performance of Yang Shuai and Cassell in the playoffs, this doubt has gradually weakened. In addition, the performance of two inside players, Bowyer and P.J. Brown, has also caused dissatisfaction.

Few people pay attention.

Teams that play against the Celtics will find that the Celtics' bench strength is stronger than expected in both offense and defense. They can even affect the outcome of the game. This was perfectly demonstrated against the Cavaliers.

The showdown in the Western Conference finally came to an end a few days later. The Lakers, who had won the match point, did not give the Jazz a chance in Game 6. The Jazz, who eliminated the Rockets, finally stopped in the Western Conference semifinals with 2:4, and the Lakers qualified for the Western Conference finals.

right.

In another round of the showdown, the experienced Spurs pulled back two games in a row after falling behind 2:3, and finally eliminated the young Hornets 4:3, allowing this season's dark horse to end their 2007-08 season after the second round of the Western Conference.

Like the previously eliminated teams, they can enter the summer vacation.

In this way, the four teams in the Eastern and Western Conference finals have been determined. The Lakers in the West will face the Spurs, and the Celtics will face the Pistons in the East. The day after the seventh game between the Spurs and the Hornets in the West, the Celtics in the East will face the Pistons.

The Pistons' finals have officially begun.
