I am Really an Insider

Apart from the Los Angeles fans, the happiest person right now is Danny Ainge.

In the end, you pioneers failed!

Now, Danny Ainge is very, very confident about the championship.

why? Because wanting to reach the Finals from the West and wanting to reach the Finals from the East are completely different.

In this regard, Danny Ainge must admit that he took advantage.

Look at the teams in the West, and then look at the rotten teams in the East.

Except for the top three teams in the East, everyone else who goes to the West may not even make the playoffs.

The Eagles, who are eighth in the Eastern Conference, have only 37 wins. With 37 wins in the playoffs, they are ridiculous! In the Western Conference, there are only four teams with fewer than 37 wins.

And a team with 37 wins in the Eastern Conference can make the playoffs. You taste it, you taste it carefully.

There is no way, there is no absolute fairness in competitive sports.

Danny Ainge is also very happy to accept this unfairness.

Therefore, Anji is now waiting for the playoffs to start, waiting for the Lakers and Trail Blazers to fight for the finals, and then Green Kai will push all the way.

This year, it’s no longer about winning one and getting one free!

Whoever reaches the finals will die!

Kobe and Wayne: "Is there a difference? Isn't it just the difference between 4-0 and 4-2 or 4-3?"

The day before the playoffs start, major TV stations are also analyzing the probability of each team winning the championship.

In the West, the most likely candidates are still the Trail Blazers and Lakers.

Although the Trail Blazers were missing Gasol, no one thought they would fall before the Western Conference Finals.

George Karl didn't like hearing this. He didn't take my three-shot shooting into consideration!

Although they were only ranked seventh in the Western Conference, they still managed to win 45 games.

how?

Are you really treating us like the 37-win Eagles?

Wayne: No, no, no, I'm not targeting you, old man. I mean, you and Eagle are trash!

On April 19, 2008, after just two days of rest, the 2007-08 NBA playoffs officially started.

Today, the Trail Blazers, who are second in the Western Conference, will take the lead and face the Denver Nuggets, who are seventh in the Western Conference.

The Nuggets, with Billups, Anthony and AI, can be said to have a close relationship with the Trail Blazers this season.

In December last year, AI scored 7 consecutive points in the last minute to win the game, but it will always be painful in the hearts of Portland fans.

Of course, it is also proof that the Nuggets team can defeat the Trail Blazers.

If Mosaic beats the Lakers, it can basically be said that there is no chance at all.

Now if Shaq wants to do it with real swords and guns, he may not be able to do it better than Yao Ming.

Trish and Kobe, if Trish fights to death, she will be evenly matched with Kobe.

But the Lakers still have Artest, Odangdang, and Little Shark.

Mosaic really depends on Shane and others?

You can't win!

Therefore, black eight is absolutely impossible.

But Black Seven is not certain. A considerable number of fans think that the Nuggets are the team most likely to make the following mistakes this season.

As for the Nuggets, once they get started, not even the King of Heaven can stop them.

Therefore, many people are looking forward to the Nuggets' success in Black Seven.

Anthony and others are also very confident. Anyway, the Trail Blazers are not invincible, as if they have never defeated the Trail Blazers.

Today's first game between the Trail Blazers and the Nuggets, the fans were not disappointed.

Because the game hasn’t even started yet, there’s something good to watch.

Before today's game started, the camera kept showing Sharapova on the sidelines.

It stands to reason that it is no news that she came to watch Wayne's game. She even had her own VIP seat in the Rose Garden.

But when she came to watch the game today, she wore a very beautiful red cheongsam.

It was very eye-catching, instantly outshining countless beauties and becoming the focus of the audience.

Well, Wayne doesn't know where that silly girl learned how to hit the ground running.

But after wearing it like this and being broadcast like this on CCTV, her popularity in China may have surpassed Pao'er's.

Pao'er: If it weren't for me, that woman wouldn't be able to dress up as a woman, etc.? Why can't I?

Until the moment the game started, people's eyes were not on Sharapova.

As expected of his Lao Wei's woman, she has earned enough face for Brother Wei.

Melo and AI performed very well today. Maybe they wanted to show off in the first playoff game. The two guns were extremely excited today.

The two scored 30 points each, and both shot around 45%.

J.R. made 6 of 8 shots from the field! He scored 15 points in just 23 minutes.

Chauncey also played steadily, finishing with 16 points and 6 assists.

Many Nuggets fans who didn't have time to watch the game saw this data and slapped their thighs - the Nuggets must have won!

As a result, looking at the total score of the series, the Trail Blazers were 1-0 Nuggets.

Nuggets fans:? ? ?

You draw as you please, I will win if I should win.

"This is really a great offensive battle! The cooperation between Wei and Chris Paul is so outstanding! They are definitely one of the best duos in NBA history, absolutely!"

Bill Walton at the scene couldn't help shouting that today's game was really enjoyable to watch.

That's right, with AI and Melo scoring 60 points together, with Billups performing solidly, and with J.R. not being nervous, the Trail Blazers still won the game!

Gasol was away, and Wayne took charge in the paint alone, scoring 36 points, 13 rebounds and 3 blocks!

He and Paoer completed alley-oops many times, as if they had built a rose garden in the sky.

Paul was not to be outdone, scoring 32 points and 12 assists, beating AI and Fireplace!

He proved with his strength: "I am the most handsome pony under Brother Wei!"

In addition, Mitch, who replaced his sister-in-law as the starter at the fourth position, also scored 17 points - a career playoff high.

When Pao'er and Wayne were around, Mickey worked hard as a blue-collar worker.

He did a good job in defense, rebounding and fighting.

And when Pao'er and Wayne were away, Mickey and Blake's pick-and-roll play was so impressive.

Blake is originally a very stable point guard. He will not mess around and can find his teammates immediately. Mitch is also very good at mid-range.

In this way, the Blazers' firepower continues.

Although Mitch did not become a star in Portland as he imagined.

But it can be considered a new life.

Being able to play here made him feel that the NBA was not so annoying for the first time.

In this way, the Trail Blazers finally defeated the Denver Nuggets 126-113, winning the first game of the playoffs!

Rude Karl stood on the sidelines, completely confused.

What do the Nuggets rely on to win against the Trail Blazers?

It all depends on offense!

But what does the result of this game show?

It shows that even if your Nuggets offense is going smoothly, the defending champion is not afraid of you and can even attack harder than you!

It shows that the Nuggets have no chance at all in this series!

Nonsense, the Trail Blazers could hold the Suns on the ground with 60+ wins last season. Are they still afraid of you, the Nuggets?

Although they are all offensive teams, the Suns last season were organized and disciplined. D'Antoni couldn't do anything else, and the offense was indeed brilliant.

You and the Nuggets are so high that I don’t know where they are just based on touch.

You, George Karl, haven't understood the team's system after playing for a whole season. You are black and seven and you are M!

George, you have everything in your dreams.

Fans noticed that after the game, when Wayne came off the field, his sister-in-law, who was wearing plastic leggings outside her trousers, yelled very excitedly and went up to hug Wayne.

Well, it seems like these two men are getting closer.

Godway's harem is happy again.

After the game, Wayne's ears were quiet.

No one will ever say anything stupid like Hei Qi again.

In one game, Wayne and Paoer kept everyone in submission.

It was just a bitter experience for Guagua. He thought that with the arrival of AI, he would be able to get the big trophy before Mousse’s 10th plan.

He thought he would be able to get the big trophy no matter how hard he got the FMVP as a player.

But now it seems that James is right.

No one else can be trusted, only the brothers themselves can work together.

Brothers, is it too late for me to join?

The Trail Blazers really got off to a good start, and the fans' attention turned to the Celtics and Lakers.

On April 20, the Lakers and Celtics appeared one by one.

The Lakers defeated Mosaic easily.

Trish, who originally had high hopes for a 50-50 matchup with Kobe, shot 7-of-21 from the field today.

He severely humiliated Kobe in the iron game in front of the Iron King.

No way, Kobe's concentration on the defensive end made Tracy very uncomfortable.

Chairman Yao was naturally not to be outdone. The score was 20+10, overwhelming the Sharks with 14+9.

From the data, it seems that the gap between the two is not that big, but Shaq's shooting percentage today was only 40%, while Chairman Yao's shooting percentage was as high as 58.3%.

Make a decision!

This is the first time Kobe and Shaq have met in the playoffs since the OK group broke up.

As a result, for the first time, Kobe gave his predecessor a blow.

Another 70 wins, another playoff victory over Shaq.

Kobe felt that he had endured the humiliation for so many years and was finally about to turn over!

On the other side, the Celtics' Big Three also easily defeated the Hawks.

In fact, the Celtics' offensive efficiency is not very good today. The Big Three's shooting percentage is not even above 43%.

But the Celtics defended well. Under the iron-blooded defense led by the tough special, the Hawks' team's shooting percentage in this game was only 38.2%.

There is absolutely no irony here. The Celtics really demonstrated their tenacious and rough style to the fullest, and the whole thing feels like a veteran Eastern Conference team.

How could the young Eagles stand this? After a few rounds of hand-to-hand fighting, they were panting and shouting that they were disarmed.

The three favorites all achieved big wins.

It seems that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms must continue to be performed.

In the second game of the series, the three teams still played smoothly.

For the Trail Blazers, winning the second game was easier than the first.

Because the Nuggets suddenly withered after experiencing an explosion in the first game, and all the players were ice shooters.

This directly led to Wayne's career-high 16 rebounds.

Wayne: It’s not that I want to grab the rebound, it’s that he wants to get the rebound!

If you can't make a shot, you'll be given various opportunities to grab rebounds.

Guagua, AI and J.R. took turns to hit the iron. The spectacular scene was something Wayne would never forget.

The key is that they were playing hard, and George Karl had no other way to solve the offensive problem, so he just watched them continue to play hard.

This is the case for teams that rely on touch to make a living. It is no exaggeration to say that the Nuggets entered the playoffs this season by betting on touch.

111 to 87, the Trail Blazers bloodbathed the Nuggets and easily led 2-0.

After the game, when the reporters went to interview George Karl again, the old devil shut himself up.

The question from reporters is: "How will you lead the team to survive?"

Rude Carl couldn't say a word, how he wished he knew the answer.

The second game between the Lakers and Celtics was the same, both were big wins.

But in the third game, when the Lakers, Celtics and Trail Blazers needed to play on the road, problems arose.

The Celtics were the first to fall off the chain.

"Joe Johnson hit his fifth three-pointer of the game! Oh my god, we all thought the series was over and the Celtics were going to lead 3-0 today.

As a result, Johnson and Josh led the team to complete a desperate counterattack! "

After Johnson scored, the live footage did not show the new Eagle King, but Junzi Lei.

A set of data was immediately displayed at the bottom of the screen: 1 of 6 three-pointers.

Well, Junzi Lei also transformed into an ice shooter today, and he is completely polarizing with Jonson.

Of course, Pierce wasn't much better. He made 5 of 13 in the game. There were countless opportunities to end the game in front of him, but he did not cherish it.

Today, the Celtics' offense is basically carried by one person.

He tortured the inside line composed of Horford and Marvin Williams. He scored 32 points, 10 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks. It felt like he was dreaming of returning to the top.

However, the hard-hitting team was unable to lead the team to victory in the end.

102 to 93, the Celtics lost in Atlanta, losing to a team with only 37 wins in the regular season, becoming the first of the three Jerrys to fall behind in the championship.

The Lakers and Trail Blazers continued to move forward bravely. The Trail Blazers remained the same and did not encounter much resistance.

Wayne discovered that you don't have to beat the Nuggets because sometimes they can kill themselves.

Billups is really struggling. In a team that advocates chaos, there is no room for him to perform.

The Lakers ran into some trouble today because Tracy finally had a 5-5 start with Kobe as people expected.

Mosaic took on a new lease of life, and it took the Lakers until the last 3 seconds.

But at the last moment, Yao Ming killed the game with a jump shot from the mid-range position on the right side, successfully winning the game.

The buzzer beater over Shaq is definitely the most classic goal in Chairman Yao's career in history.

You don't even need to add the suffix one.

At that moment, Kobe rushed up and hugged Yao Ming like a little fanboy.

Yao Ming raised his arms high, extremely proud. Shaq on the side lowered his head and put his hands on his hips, looking very dejected.

This highly contrasting picture was photographed by many reporters, just like the photos of Hardy and Weber back then.

This indicates that the era of Yao Ming's inside dominance has really arrived.

Fake big man traditional team: They just use Olajuwon's legendary story to fool you, and they won't give you the corresponding configuration when they come.

A true traditional team with big men: don’t say anything and just rush to the championship!

The Lakers and Trail Blazers both had a 3-0 match point, but the Celtics overturned.

When a reporter asked about this, Wayne smiled: "I had expected it, and they would fail."

"Are you saying the Celtics will lose to the 37-win Hawks?"

"When you mention the Hawks, there is no need to keep talking about 37 wins. Because the strength of the playoffs is not divided by the regular season record. The Hawks' tenacity is beyond everyone's imagination. The arrogant Ainge always It’s about underestimating your opponent.”

Wayne said this to deliberately criticize Ainge. Fortunately, the Pacers are seventh in the Eastern Conference.

Otherwise, there might really be a Black Eight miracle to be seen this year.

Why is Wayne so confident?

Because in the original history, Green Kai played a tiebreaker with the Eagles!

Wayne remembers that the Celtics beat the Hawks as soon as they came home, but beat the Hawks as soon as they went away.

In the end, it was forced to the tiebreaker. All four games were won at home.

Wayne doesn't know why this happened, being tortured so badly by a 37-win team.

But what is certain is that Green Kai in this history still has the habit of collapsing in away games.

Therefore, even if there is no tiebreaker, the Eagles should be able to fight 4-2 with Green Kai.

Angie is so angry!

Gasol is injured on your side and you are still so arrogant?

Mind your own business!

Curse the Blazers to lose in the next game, and I'll be happy to do it.

However, Wei Ge did not give face to Danny Anji, nor did he give face to AI.

In the fourth game, both sides performed normally. The Trail Blazers can suppress the Nuggets with defense, but the Nuggets' defense is basically giving away.

They want to play against each other, but the Blazers don't play against you every game.

A little effort on the defensive end will kill you completely.

So easily, the Trail Blazers won the fourth game, leaving AI and Guagua's luggage in vain.

Wayne: You don't have to go to Portland. Just stay home and have a good rest.

Even without Gasol, the Trail Blazers still swept the Nuggets 4-0 to advance to the Western Conference semifinals!

What is a defending champion?

You are the defending champion!

Now, the Trail Blazers can take a good rest and watch the Texas Civil War between the Spurs and the Mavericks.

The game has reached this point, and the major NBA regular season awards have begun to be announced one by one.

The first one announced was the Sixth Man of the Year, and the winner was Manu, who averaged 19.5 points per game.

Wayne said there was nothing good to say, it was all my leftover stuff.

The next day, the league immediately announced the results of the selection of the best coach. KFC, which led the team to 70 wins, won the award unanimously.

Well, the last time he won this award was when he led the Bulls to 72 wins.

The two 70-win games in league history included Jackson. This is enough for him to pretend for a lifetime.

On the day the Best Coach Award selection results were announced, the Spurs and Mavericks series also had results.

The Spurs defeated the Mavericks 4-2, which also means that young general Johnson is done in Dallas.

With Kidd, the Mavericks were still eliminated early.

Facts have proved that Johnson's team has only so much upper limit, and it is impossible to win a championship.

And his idea of ​​wanting Josh Howard to take over made Cuban very unhappy.

Except for me, this team is Dirk, you know?

The Spurs eliminated the Mavericks, which means that old enemies and old enemies still meet.

As for the Lakers, after sweeping Mosaic 4-0 to advance, their opponent was finally born, the Utah Jazz.

Once upon a time, the Jazz were Yao Ming's sufferer and the pain in the hearts of countless Mosaic fans.

But now, Wayne believes that the Jazz can no longer do anything to Yao Ming.

And the Celtics

Well, they finally won in Boston. But they haven't advanced yet, they just tied the total score to 3-2.

Danny Ainge is really shameless...

The game between the Spurs and Trail Blazers is also quite eye-catching

After all, the Spurs are third in the Western Conference in the regular season, and this is the first time Wayne and Duncan have met in the playoffs since the 2005 Finals.

How far can Wayne and Duncan play now?

Everyone was very curious.

The Trail Blazers and Spurs are already gearing up and preparing for a big fight.

But the progress of the entire playoffs has been dragged down by Kaizi.

Finally, Kaizi defeated the Eagles 4-2 and successfully advanced, one game earlier than the tiebreaker in the original history.

However, the score of 4 to 2 will not satisfy the fans.

The Lakers and Trail Blazers are both 4-0, but the Celtics are the worst.

And you’re playing against a team that only had 37 wins in the regular season.

Even losing one game is not perfect, and as a result, Green Kai lost two games.

The Celtics finally won, and it wasn't a glorious win.

On this day, Du Xiaoshuai also won the first regular season award of his career-Best Rookie.

The regular season awards are here, and the countdown to the results of the most important Defensive Player and MVP awards every year has finally entered!

Whether the MVP is Kobe or Wayne is still debated to this day.

Some people say that Kobe can defeat all competitors with 70 wins, while others think that Wayne is fully qualified to compete.

Because in the head-to-head confrontation with the Lakers, Wayne and Kobe tied 2-2.

As for the remaining players, including Mousse, Garnett and Paoer, although they are all on the MVP rankings, they can only accompany them silently.

From the beginning of this season, it was basically determined that the MVP would only be one of Kobe and Wayne.

Really. Two heroes competing for hegemony.

But before that, both Wayne and Kobe have to deal with the enemies in front of them.

Popovich is very arrogant. Without Gasol, in his opinion, the Trail Blazers are not that strong.

What are the Spurs most afraid of? I am most afraid of the powerful twin towers!

For many (poor) reasons, the Spurs have never had a decent fifth position.

Therefore, interior defense basically relies on Duncan.

Once the opponent is very good at positions 4 and 5, the Spurs will be in trouble.

After all, Lao Dengtou doesn't know how to have multiple clones.

When playing against the Pacers in the past, Duncan was unable to defend anyone due to peak O'Neill and rookie Wayne.

Now, peak Gasol and peak Wayne are embarrassing the Spurs.

But replacing Gasol with Milicic, Popovich felt he was good again!

The San Antonio Spurs never win the championship as favorites!

Because when they become favorites, they often fail to defend the title.

At a regular press conference the day before the start of the series, Popovich became yygq: "When playing against Wei, I hope the referees can pay close attention to all the movements on the court to prevent my players from being maliciously harmed."

The pain of Bowen's retirement still echoes in the heart of the old Veach player.

Wayne is really convinced by this old man. Please order Bilian when you are older!

Even though I, Wayne, fight, I won’t just accuse someone of being a hooligan if I can’t win, right?

Oh, it seems like there’s no fight I can’t win.

Popovich worked hard to portray Wayne as a butcher, but in the end found that no one cared about him.

If Wayne had elbowed Duncan and retired, then without Popovich fanning the flames, Wayne would have been criticized verbally.

But it was Bowen who was beaten by Wayne, and it was too late for everyone to be happy!

How could Wayne be the Butcher?

Simply an angel!

In the afternoon, during the Trail Blazers' regular pre-game press conference, reporters also asked Wayne what he thought of Popovich's words.

"I agree with what Coach Popovich said, and I believe Vince Carter, Ray Allen, Steve Nash and many other players also agree. The Spurs will play basketball well if the referees pay more attention."

The war between Wayne and the old thief Vicki begins again!

This may be a rare situation where there is no conflict between the players of the two teams, but there is a conflict between the players and the coaches.

Although he talked eloquently, Wayne still knew it in his heart.

The Spurs are not the Nuggets, and even without Bowen, they are still dangerous.

The competition must not be taken lightly!

The first real one-on-one with Duncan in the playoffs

Wayne knew that this was likely to be the battle that established his position.
