Chapter 1192 The top four are revealed, and grievances are full

From a rational point of view, there is basically no dispute between the best team and the best defensive team this season. For example, most of the players in the first and second teams of the best team are still in the playoffs at this time, which proves that they not only perform in the regular season

Excellent, the playoffs also reached the level of at least the conference semifinals.

Oh, except for Chris Paul…

His conference finals spell continues.

The simultaneous selection of four big men to the All-Defensive Second Team has also attracted people's attention. The main focus is naturally on the four big men being selected to the second team at the same time. This is the first time in thirty years that so many big men have been selected to the All-Defensive Second Team at the same time.

What a good defensive lineup.

In particular, Duncan, a nearly 37-year-old veteran, has regained his youthfulness. You must know that this is Duncan's return to the All-Defensive Team after many years. Fans jokingly said: "The value of that selection back then is still rising!"

Indeed, both Zuo Li and Duncan are convinced. Not to mention how strong his overall strength is, but to say that his ability from peak to trough, and then to his second spring has surpassed most people. Historically,

Most people will slowly fade into oblivion after experiencing physical decline. Even O'Neal did not stand up again after the decline, but Duncan did it.

This can't help but remind Zuo Li of his last life. In the two years of 13 and 14, the 37- and 38-year-old Duncan completely defeated Bosh at his peak in the finals. Especially in 2013, even though the Spurs lost in the end, the inside

The gap is so big that people will subconsciously ignore Duncan's age.

Therefore, Zuo Li has always regarded the Spurs as the Knicks' biggest opponent in defending the title this season. Even though the Lakers seem to have more stars and perform well, if they play against the Spurs, they may not necessarily win.

Of course, Zuo Li has attracted the most attention. This is the fifth time in a row that Zuo Li has been selected to double first team at the same time. It is also the fourth time in a row that Zuo Li has won double first team and regular season MVP at the same time. In this way, Zuo Li has been the most valuable player in the regular season for four consecutive years.

Both items were included in the bag at the same time.

So far this season, Zuo Li has won the regular season MVP, best defensive player, double team, as well as scoring, rebounding and blocks. This is the fourth time he has won these awards at the same time.

At the same time, Zuo Li also finished first in the league and broke the regular season record.

"If he can win two more rounds and win the championship this season, Zuo Li will have a chance to win the finals MVP. In this way, Zuo Li will accumulate a terrifying amount of honors in the five years of his career.

"Barkley said on a show that night.

"Now that I think about it, the All-Stars are really a pity." Kenny Smith sighed.

If Zuo Li is also the All-Star MVP, then Zuo Li will have won the Grand Slam of Honors for three consecutive years. This is definitely an unprecedented record and will never be followed again.

"What's going on...are you still letting others play? You're going to call the police!" O'Neal looked at Kenny Smith speechlessly, meaning, after all this, you're still not satisfied?!

Are you so outrageous?

O'Neal said that in his career of more than ten years, he has accumulated more honors than anyone else in more than five years. He also achieved a bumper harvest of honors in a single season in 2000.

The Lakers also won the league's first record of 67 wins and 15 losses. O'Neal successively won the regular season MVP, All-Star Game MVP, scoring champion, All-Defensive Second Team, All-NBA First Team, and Finals MVP. He was almost there.

He directly won the Grand Slam honor.

The real arrogance of O'Neal that year was in the playoffs. Throughout the playoffs, O'Neal led the Lakers to a dramatic run in the playoffs, beating their opponents in every possible way, and finally won the championship, averaging 30.7 points and 15.4 rebounds per game.

3.1 assists, 2.4 blocks, and a shooting percentage of 56.6%.

In addition to the best defensive player and best defensive team, O'Brien has basically won everything he can. In terms of single-season dominance, O'Brien has been considered to be among the top five in history this season.

But when compared with Zuo Li, he was immediately inferior.

He is still a step behind, let alone others who are not as good as him.

Especially those who aspire to be the first in history.

O'Neal doesn't know how James will compare with Zuo Li in the future...

"Hey, don't you hope to see Zuo Li take a step further?" Kenny Smith smiled sheepishly, probably knowing that he was a little outrageous.

It is already difficult to surpass. Anyway, neither Jordan nor Olajuwon could pose a threat to Zuo Li in the past. As for the newcomers, they may only have the opportunity to complete such a feat in their rookie season.

That means there is almost no chance...

Zuo Li watched that program, and probably many Knicks players also watched it, and they felt sorry for it, but Zuo Li didn't feel sorry for it. According to his words: "Don't think it's settled."

Yes, the current direction of public opinion makes people think that the championship is already in the Knicks' bag. Only Zuo Li knows that what they will face next is the most difficult opponent in the previous season.

First up is the Miami Heat!

On May 23, another protagonist of the Eastern Conference Finals was finally revealed. The Miami Heat won the tiebreaker at home and met the Knicks for the third time in three years.

This game was lackluster. The Pacers were not only "taken care of" by the referees, but also "greeted" by the basket throughout the game. Not only did Hibbert commit four fouls early, Paul George also failed to score.

108-88, they lost miserably by 20 points and failed to create a miracle in the end.

So the third Niger War was once again staged in the Eastern Conference Finals. The Knicks advanced easily in the first two times. This time, I don’t know what the result will be.

Anyway, for the Heat, this is their last chance.

As for the two tiebreakers in the Western Conference, they also ended on the 24th.

The Spurs took the lead in defeating the Nuggets to advance to the Western Conference Finals. This was the first time the Spurs returned to this stage after a year.

The veteran Popovich officially activated Duncan in this game. 18 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists didn't seem very explosive. Considering the final score of 80-72 and Duncan's age, it can only be said that the legend continues.

.

The Spurs' opponents are also their old acquaintances.

107-100, the Thunder duo failed to overthrow the Lakers in the end. The 7-point difference caused the two to fail in the Western Conference Finals!

Kobe returned to the Western Conference Finals after 2 years. At the same time, this was the Nth time he met the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals.

Lake horse battle!

The most legendary matchup in the league, which lasted from the end of the last century to the new century, was also a battle between the two teams with the deepest grievances in the Western Conference.

From the Spurs eliminating the Lakers in the Western Conference Semifinals in 1999, to the Lakers sweeping the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals in 2001, to the Spurs' revenge in the 2003 Western Conference Finals, to the Lakers defeating the Spurs in the 2008 Western Conference Finals...

The history of the Western Conference in the past 15 years can actually be regarded as a history of grudges between the two teams, the Lakers and the Horses.

At present, Kobe and Duncan, the leaders of the two teams, have led the two teams to win 4 championships each, and they have jointly dominated the league for 8 years!

"Absolutely four teams from the East and West have been formed. Both sides are the teams with the most grievances in recent years. This time, let's see who can break the fate and meet in the finals!"
