Guard With a Knife

Sports competition is a war without gunpowder. The reason why war is cruel is that it reveals the fact that the winner is the winner and the loser is the loser.

The Black Mamba fell at the feet of the Thunder Youth Army.

Four to one.

Clean and crisp.

When Westbrooks roared in the Energy Arena, when Kevin Durant beat his chest and declared that his time had come... Kobe walked towards the tunnel with his head lowered and biting his lip in the blossoming away game.

And half an hour later, he had to appear in front of the media as the defeated representative of the Lakers to sum up and admit the failure of this season.

For a person who is so proud that he says, "Second place is the biggest loser," losing in the Western Conference semifinals for two consecutive years is undoubtedly an unacceptable shame.

If we were swept by the Mavericks last season, it can be said that... the people of Dallas were better prepared. So now...do I have to admit like a Bostonian that I am getting old and that the main stage of the NBA has been handed over to this group of young boys?

"No, we will come back next season. The Lakers are a team with a long history. We have experienced countless setbacks, but none of these can stop us from succeeding."

Kobe Bryant said very seriously and stubbornly at the press conference.

But in fact, not everyone believed his vows.

After all, in essence, he is just a top 7 star in the league.

And with the arrival of the new season, this ranking will continue to decline, possibly to 13 or 17. In short, it will be difficult to enter the top ten in the league.

After all, he is about to turn 34.

Snoopy watched his interview on TV and soon received a text message from him. The Black Mamba, who categorically claimed to be making a comeback on TV, had a different attitude in text messages.

"Hey, puppy. Are you sure you don't want to come to the West? The competition is fierce here!!!"

The serious Black Mamba even used emojis.

It's very suspected of being malicious and cute.

However, the puppy's reply was very official: I'm doing fine in Chicago.

Then, he and Miley went to the room for a meeting.

After the meeting, Sellers said that she hoped to hold an enlarged meeting in the near future. She was born as a troubled girl and now has a general demeanor, and she has already acted as the housekeeper of the backyard.

What else could the little Duke say?

Can I be absent?

As the main body of the meeting, you definitely can’t.

…

After six games, the Miami Heat finally defeated the Indiana Pacers.

This series in Indiana once again proved one thing: the Miami Heat are afraid of teams with strong offensive rebounds, and at the same time are very uncomfortable with opponents' post-ups in the penalty area.

As we all know, the Pacers' offensive rebounds rank second in the Eastern Conference: This severely reduces the rapid counterattacks launched by Miami's two-headed monster.

At the same time, the Pacers are one of the teams in the league that like to play inside back attacks. They have 218cm Hibbert, 206cm West, Hansbrough and Amundsen. On the other hand, the Heat only have Bosh at 211, Haslem at 203 centimeters, and Joel Anthony at 206 centimeters.

In addition, the Pacers are a team that can shoot from top to bottom - not to mention Hill, Collison, Granger, and George, West, Hibbert, and Hansbrough all have accurate shots. 15 to 18 feet midrange shot.

So, that's why the entire series has been a tug-of-war. After all, the Pacers have the height advantage, thickness inside, youthful energy, offensive rebounds, and the "Pacers Basketball" they are proud of.

The so-called Pacers basketball is the soul of the team. Looking at the Pacers' team history, you will find that in the seven years from 1994 to 2000, even though they only had one star, Reggie Miller, they still reached the Eastern Conference Finals five times.

Trust, physical combat, defense, defeating the weak against the strong, three-pointers. This is why the Pacers in the Miller era were able to fight against natural superstars such as Ewing, Shark, Jordan, and Iverson, and now, they are facing the Big Three of Miami.

Although in the end they lost the game.

But there is no doubt that they have earned the respect of everyone. People will always remember Paul George's angry and humiliating roar after he failed to guard Dwyane Wade's incredible three-pointer in Game 2.

People will also remember that in the third game, Hansbrook used his flesh and blood to stop LeBron James' tank-like impact. He fell to the ground and couldn't even speak for half a minute, and then sat on the bench for less than five minutes. Keep playing.

Of course, Danny Granger's buzzer-beater in Game 4 was equally awe-inspiring.

There is also West's usual cunning and toughness, Thibodeau's overwhelming defense, although he was taken away by LeBron James in the sixth game and became the key point in the series' demise, but no one There is no way to deny his contribution to the series.

"You guys played great, and if you can get a few more whistles, you have a chance to stand on the tiebreaker stage with Miami."

Stephen Curry angrily comforted Paul George in the group: "This is simply favoritism."

George looked extremely frustrated, saying that he must improve his ball-handling ability and three-point ability this summer, and he must not show his fatigue on the offensive end like this again.

Snoopy gave him some encouragement and invited him to train with him over the summer.

At this time, Westbrook jumped out, Snoopy, you must avenge Paul! I'm still waiting to beat you in the finals.

The little duke sent a smiling emoji.

If it was really the finals against the Thunder, his teeth would fall out with laughter. Because the Spurs are too experienced. The Bulls have some headaches against such experienced teams. In comparison, young and aggressive teams like the Thunder are easier to deal with.

…

When Snoopy watched the game between the Heat and the Pacers, he did not think that the referee decided the result of the game like Stephen Curry did. The referee factor was a little bit, but it was not enough to affect the outcome.

What really affected the outcome were LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, who may be the two strongest offensive weapons in the league today.

Their cooperation this year is too strong. No matter which of them gets the opportunity to counterattack, the other person can accurately appear on the route where he should appear. The Pacers died because of this move: they used up all their energy, but the team still lost to the superstar.

In addition, what can be seen with the naked eye is that Dwyane Wade has regained his strongest killing intention. His desire for the championship this season is far greater than last year, and he can't wait any longer. LeBron James is also stronger than last season. His summer training made him more comfortable on the court. At the age of 27, he has officially entered the peak of his career!

"Miami is a pure superstar dominating the court mode. As long as they find the 'momentum', they will ignore defense, kill gods and be invincible!" Snoopy emphasized in the locker room before the game: "So, we can only drag them into the defensive swamp and use height, confrontation, tenacity and selfless switching to drag them down!"

"In a sense, they are the Bulls. And what we have to do is: trap them in the fire and burn them to death while they are running wildly!"

The little Duke's expression is solemn.

He knows better than anyone how strong the Miami people's determination for revenge is, and how much Miami's strength has increased compared to last year.

But in terms of overall strength, the Bulls may be better. But in terms of individual attack ability, Snoopy is still a little behind Wade James. The current situation is like: the upgraded version of the Pacers versus the Miami Heat.

The Bulls have a 50% chance of winning, but they are afraid that the Heat will find momentum. Once their superstar ball is turned on, the Bulls will be very passive. In a sense, the probability of this series playing seven games is almost the same as that of playing four games. If it is played in four games, the Heat will have a greater chance of winning. If it is dragged into seven games, the Bulls are more likely to win. .

But what annoys Snoopy the most now is the widely circulated article on the Internet.

How does he know that I am more accurate when my defense is stronger?

If the Jordan rule is really applied to me, will my shot be able to kill Miami?
