Chapter 224: You Can Only Start Over

The Wizards advance to the Eastern Conference Finals again. This is the third consecutive year they have entered the Eastern Conference Finals.

As agreed in advance, all members of the Wizards rested in the enthusiastic Miami for two days before returning to Washington.

In fact, the Nets and Pacers are just tied at 2-2, and there will be at least 4 days before the result.

But after all, we are still in the playoffs, so we really can’t waste too much. By then, our hearts will be wandering, and our condition may not be good.

No matter what, the Wizards' goal is still to win the championship!

This is a sure thing.

After winning this "three consecutive championships", he has no regrets about the Wizards fans who support him.

Of course, the championship this season is really not that easy to win.

The Lakers were in great shape. Although the Mavericks made it into the second round in a daze, the Lakers treated them like sandbags, crushed them all the way, and sent the Mavericks away, which shows their state.

In the second round of the playoffs, apart from the Lakers, the only other team that could beat their opponents like this was the Wizards.

The situation in the other two rounds of the series is still very anxious.

The Nets, Pacers, and, needless to say, the Spurs and Timberwolves are both on the same page, and Kevin Garnett is really in good hands.

With the help of his teammates, he fully demonstrated his better aspects than Tim Duncan, such as his wingspan, his passing, his ability to hold the ball from the 1st position to the 5th position, etc.

It's a completely Kevin Garnett-style style of play. Looking at the scene, it looks more like a No. 3 leading the team against the No. 5...

Frankly speaking, the other two members of the Spurs have not fully grown up this season. The two teams played 2-1, and the Spurs therefore became the lagging side.

Popovich jumped in anger. He really didn't understand why Manu Ginobili dared to throw such a ball...

Well, the current "demon sword" has not been experienced in the Olympics, and indeed it has not become that demon...

Tony Parker faced off against the "alien" on the opposite side. How should I put it? Well...

It's like a child meets an old man, a perverted old man, and trains him in various ways.

This was quite beyond Jiang Dalin's expectation. Originally, he thought that the Timberwolves' ability to advance to the Western Conference Finals later this season was mainly due to good luck, as they avoided meeting the Lakers or Spurs in the second round.

If it were the "OK" combination or Tim Duncan, he would definitely not be able to pass.

And judging from the current situation...

Even if they encounter the Spurs, Kevin Garnett and his Timberwolves are not afraid.

This team does have good chemistry.

It's just a pity that Kevin Garnett met Shaq in the same situation as Tim Duncan met Shaq. They couldn't win at all. Otherwise, the "Wolf King" could have led the team to the finals as the boss.

Among the "four forwards", he has the highest annual salary, but his performance in leading the team is not as good as the other two. Instead, like Chris Webber, he can only lead the team to the Western Conference Finals...

and……

If Kevin Garnett originally had some hope when he met the "OK" team, now he meets the even more powerful "OK" team created by Jiang Dalin himself, and there really is no chance at all.

Finally, on the third day after all members of the Wizards returned to training, another spot for the Eastern Conference finals came out. After the Nets played 6 games with the Pacers, the team that finally entered the Eastern Conference finals was...

Indiana Pacers!

It was a pity for Richardson that he fell in the second round of the Eastern Conference again.

Jiang Dalin sent him a text message: Wait, brother, I will take revenge on you!

Richardson is quite heartwarming, although what he wants to do more is compete on the same stage with Jiang Dalin.

But just can't beat the Pacers...

Why!

Also sighing were the Indiana fans who won. The team entered the Eastern Conference Finals for the second consecutive year. It was impossible for them to be unhappy.

However, the problem is that we have to fight Jiang Dalin again.

this……

The hope is not high, right?

The Pacers had just been formed the year before last. They reached the second round of the Eastern Conference Finals, but fell to Jiang Dalin and his Wizards.

What they were thinking at that time was that this was the first year of the team anyway, and this team also had Michael Jordan and a super rookie. Let’s wait until next year they will be a year older and then we can get along.

Even better, just fuck him!

result……

Their year was their weakest year, and that year of the Wizards was also their weakest year.

No, it should be said that Jiang Dalin was in his weakest year. The current number one pick in China in 2001 is just like a big mountain. It looks so towering and impossible to climb.

To be honest, no matter what the Pacers players think now, Indiana fans are a little numb anyway. If they lose again this time, in their view, the team can abandon the reconstruction...

After being killed by the same team for three consecutive years, what else is there to say?

When Jiang Dalin saw these Indiana Pacers players at his home stadium, he suddenly felt as if this time had never passed before.

If you hadn't seen that the old gangster was no longer around...

Little O'Neal looked at the mountain he once wanted to climb, and now it was still standing there unattainable. He had mixed feelings for a while.

Especially now that Jiang Dalin is receiving the regular season MVP trophy from David Stern, he feels that this mountain seems to be higher!

Yes, the league finally gave Jiang Dalin the regular season MVP trophy in the 2003~-04 season.

The competition for this award this season is still very fierce, especially the unexpected rise of the Timberwolves, coupled with Kevin Garnett's comprehensive statistics that look like cheating, which makes people think that this season's regular season MVP may not be Jiang Dalin's.

Already.

Of course, the final result proved that no matter who the opponent is, the regular season MVP this season can only be Jiang Dalin!

Because he has proven his ability to lead a team.

And if we really want to be dramatic, the Wizards' record this season is even more dramatic than that of the Timberwolves.

You must know that no matter how bad the Timberwolves were at that time, their record was at least eighth or ninth in the Western Conference. The Wizards were different, they just fell to the third to last position in the Eastern Conference.

But when Larry Brown was fired and everyone was panicking, Jiang Dalin relied on his own efforts to reintegrate the team and return the team to the first place in the Eastern Conference.

It can be seen from the voting of the entire media that Jiang Dalin won the regular season MVP award, which is what everyone expected!

Jiang Dalin finally won the final regular season MVP with 75% of the vote, while Kevin Garnett, who had previously thought he could challenge Jiang Dalin, finally received 15% of the vote...

The difference is huge.

Jiang Dalin carried his regular season MVP trophy amidst the cheers of the audience.

At this moment, he officially became the youngest regular season MVP in NBA history!

Of course, his birthday is September 15th, and Derrick Rose's birthday is October 4th. If Rose can still achieve the triple jump, then the record of the youngest regular season MVP will still be his.

However, it is only 2004, and Derrick Rose will be seven years later. Whether the Bulls can still get the No. 1 pick in 2008 is still unknown.

Jiang Dalin just thought about this idea casually.

Then the game officially started.

Before the game, when it was officially announced that this season's regular season MVP was Jiang Dalin, the entire Pacers team felt like they were going to suffer tonight.

This guy is definitely excited to put on a show.

No matter who it is, at this time, they will do the same.

But what they didn't expect was...

This is too fierce!

On the first pitch, Jiang Dalin was no ordinary dunk.

How to describe it?

Let's put it this way, Howard used a "popular slam dunk" trick in the 2007 Slam Dunk Contest, and Jiang Dalin recreated it for him.

Moreover, he is not a popular dunk, but a solid dunk!

Yes!

Jiang Dalin started the game with a free throw line dunk.

O'Neal Jr. arrived at the basket in time and was about to rush forward and make a defensive foul on Jiang Dalin, but he tried hard several times, but his feet were desperately telling him: The game is for everyone, and your life is your own!

Do you really want to commit yourself right from the start?

The result was that he just stared blankly at Jiang Dalin as he completed a dunk from the free throw line!

When the "bang" dunk came out through the speaker on the rim, the cheers from the audience were like a waterfall flying down three thousand feet, completely washing away the entire arena.

For a moment, some elderly fans felt like their ears were ringing.

But like everyone else, they didn't care what kind of damage this sound wave could bring to them, but they were shouting hard. At this moment, only the cheers could explain their inner excitement.

Even though they have seen Jiang Dalin dunk again and again, what is happening now? It started with a free throw line dunk, and finally even a "tomahawk chop", which was bloody and violent and made people feel like their blood was flowing.

Everyone on the Pacers team was stunned. How can we fight like this?

From now on, it's like playing an exhibition game...

No, after a year, have you become so imbecile?

This doesn’t give us people a way to survive at all!

If you come up and just deduct one, can others still play?

Seriously, Rick Carlisle wants to call a timeout right now.

Even though the game has only started for 30 seconds, the atmosphere on the opposite side is nothing like the atmosphere just after the game started. Isn't this just a celebration?

After thinking about it for a while, he finally called a timeout.

And when the timeout sounded, all the Wizards fans at the scene were stunned for a moment, and the smiles on some faces were so frightening that they burst into laughter.

Isn't this too ridiculous?

Jiang Dalin followed the team and walked off the court high-fiving.

Meeting the Pacers every year gives them a different feeling every year.

Jiang Dalin feels that sometimes he is too good!

They should be extremely happy now, right?

Jiang Dalin turned his head and glanced at the opposite camp.

Um……

He thinks...if being stunned is a kind of happiness, then these people are definitely happy!

I am such a happy ambassador!

During the 30-second rest period, Rick Carlisle didn't say anything else. He just asked everyone to cheer up. The game had just begun!

It's just that when he said this, he really didn't dare to look at these players.

Because their expressions are all the same...

Are you sure the game has just started?

Are you sure it's not over yet?

When the game restarted, Tinsley gave the ball to the frontcourt, and O'Neal actively took it out, and then quickly took a mid-range shot.

The ball goes in!

Jiang Dalin defended the ball very quickly, but O'Neal still hit the ball into the basket before he could defend.

It is worth mentioning that O'Neal Jr. is indeed seriously preparing to meet Jiang Dalin again...

His turnaround jump shot speed was trained with Jiang Dalin's defense speed as a reference, and it was faster than his original speed at the same time.

Just scoring goals with light energy is useless.

Seeing Jiang Dalin complete a dunk in front of him again, O'Neal fell into deep helplessness.

Of course he can continue to respond, but who has a higher hit rate between his mid-range shots and Jiang Dalin's shots under the basket?

Even in the "small ball era" when shooting went crazy, one thing cannot be denied: the closer you are to the basket, the higher your shooting percentage!

And he shot another two points.

It can't be like three-pointers, if the hit rate is not enough, just rely on quantity...

The Pacers are very passive. O'Neal Jr. is their team's leading scorer and the Pacers' top scorer this season. However, his scoring speed can't beat the opposite Jiang Dalin. Not only can he not beat him, but he's also something special

, totally incapable of doing it!

Halfway through the first quarter, Jiang Dalin had already scored 8 points, while O'Neal had only 4 points.

In fact, the Pacers' winning style is defensive, but because they couldn't guard Jiang Dalin, they thought of starting from the offensive end.

What they are best at has been restrained, and what they are not good at is exactly what their opponent is good at. This may be why they have been unable to beat the Wizards for three consecutive years.

In the end, the Pacers were lagging behind throughout the game. Jiang Dalin gave the team a fighting spirit with his dunk at the beginning, and then smoothly defeated the Pacers with his offense.

110 to 98, in the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Pacers were taken away by the Wizards after not taking the lead even once.

Kenny Smith looked at the Wizards who left the field in despair, and shook his head with a wry smile. This helpless smile was because of the Pacers. If he was in the current situation, he would probably show such an expression.

Because he felt that the Wizards beat the Pacers too easily.

The Pacers had no chance of winning against them.

At this moment, he probably also understood what the Indiana media said before the game. The good news is that we have another chance to challenge the Wizards. The bad news is that there is no good news...

Based on Kenny Smith's experience, this Pacers team should be... the end!

In three years, if you still can't cross one team, then you really have to start over.
