Anyone who sees the final matchup of the regular season and then looks at the record rankings of the Eastern and Western Conferences will be confused.

Before the last regular season game, the top eight in the Eastern and Western Conferences have not been fully determined. This situation has happened before, but it has never been as entangled as this season.

Although all the playoff spots in the Eastern Conference have been announced, it is still unclear who is sixth, seventh and eighth among the Miami Heat, New Jersey Nets and Washington Wizards.

Who is second in the Eastern Conference and who is third in the Eastern Conference, the Cavaliers and Magic, will also be decided in the final game, and it will be the most direct showdown between the two sides.

The uncertain ranking means that except for the Chicago Bulls and Toronto Raptors, who are fourth and fifth, the remaining three groups have not been determined in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

The Los Angeles Clippers and New Orleans Hornets in the Western Conference are also possible before the final game, but they can only hope that the eighth-ranked Golden State Warriors will lose to the first-ranked Dallas Mavericks to have any hope of entering the playoffs.

.

The Los Angeles Clippers need to face the uncertain Miami Heat, while the New Orleans Hornets need to face the Phoenix Suns, who are second in the Western Conference. The showdown between Chris Paul and Steve Nash is enough to make people look forward to it, not to mention the post-season.

The battle for seats.

The only advantage for the Hornets is that the Suns have locked in second place in the Western Conference and don't need to worry about the ranking, so they may not try their best in the last game. Once the Hornets win the game and the Warriors lose to the Mavericks, the Clippers will also lose.

If given to the Heat, the Hornets can climb from 11th to 8th in the Western Conference.

The situation faced by the Warriors is the same as that of the Hornets. The Mavericks are already firmly ranked first in the Western Conference. Although Nelson and Mark Cuban are unhappy, it does not mean that Cuban's Dallas Mavericks will play this last game seriously.

.

If the Mavericks give in, then even if the Clippers and Hornets win their respective opponents, they will not be able to advance to the playoffs.

For the last game of this season, NBA officials released a promotional video early.

This promotional video titled "The suspense is waiting for you to reveal!" has fans' blood boiling, and everyone is looking forward to April 18th.

Several focus games were also arranged to be broadcast live nationwide by major television stations in the United States. The rights to broadcast the game between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Orlando Magic were won by ESPN. ESPN's most popular commentary team, Bill Walton and Hoffman, also broadcast in April.

I arrived in Cleveland on the 17th to prepare for the commentary task of this focus game.

"Welcome to "Hoop World", I am your friend Erin Andrews. The 2006-2007 regular season has come to an end. I think every fan is crazy about it and is looking forward to the upcoming playoffs.

Come on, everyone, follow our lens and take a look at the crazy people."

Erin Andrews is wearing a well-tailored slim-fitting women's suit. However, the white shirt in the suit has a wider neckline than before. The ravine is not deep but seductive enough that countless men cannot look away once it enters.

"Jinzhou will win, and the gangsters will win!" A blond beauty pointed at her T-sleeved chest with both hands.

"BD will definitely defeat that bunch of shit, and we will definitely make it to the playoffs, for sure!" a fan with his face painted in dark yellow yelled at the camera.

A fan wearing a blue wig squeezed up from the side and said: "The Dallas Cowboys will get stuck in the quagmire of Oracle, long live Golden State!"

…

"Look at these fans, they are all going crazy for tonight's game. I think there will be a passionate game behind us at Oracle Center in half an hour. This is the situation in Golden State. Let's look at Oklahoma City.

, Hornets vs. Suns. A battle of super guards."

Along with Erin Andrews's words, the camera cut to outside the Oklahoma Arena. It was almost the same as the Golden State Warriors. Fans entered the stadium one after another, while two to three thousand fans without tickets gathered around.

Waiting in front of the big LED screen in the square outside the arena.

The camera switches one by one, and the teams whose fate is certain tonight are all making their fans go crazy.

"Tonight belongs to all these players, and even more to these crazy and persistent fans. Finally, let us set our sights on Cleveland, where a peak battle is about to begin..."

Erin Andrews made a fist with her right hand and waved it, making people worry about whether the buttons on her suit could hold up.

The screen flashed to the Quicken Loans Center in Cleveland. The Quicken Loans Center, which can accommodate 20,562 people, was already full.

Most of the fans were wearing the uniform T-sleeves of the Cavaliers' home uniforms, giving people the feeling that they were on the extremely competitive playoff stage.

A small number of Orlando Magic fans, as well as Chinese and overseas Chinese students from or near Cleveland also came here, becoming an outlier in this sea of ​​Cavaliers red.

On the field, players from the Magic and Cavaliers are practicing shooting in their respective half-courts. This focus battle will start at 8:00 New York time.

Originally, this game involved the question of who would be second in the Eastern and Western Conferences, not to mention the conflicts between Lin Sen and LeBron James that were magnified by reporters.

Mike Brown, who is nicknamed LeBron James's nanny, got into trouble early like Stan Van Gundy. He is also considering his opponent in the first round of the playoffs, although if the Cavaliers can win this game, it means

If the Magic can also advance to the second round, then the Cavaliers will have a valuable home court advantage over the Magic.

But this premise is also based on the fact that the opponent is not the Miami Heat. Although the defending champion Miami Heat are in poor shape, who knows whether these old guys will break out in the playoffs.

"The temperature in the Quicken Loans Center seems to be a bit high today. I can already smell the smell of gunpowder. Look at the packed Quicken Loans Center." Bill Walton said with a smile.

Hoffman, who was next to Bill Walton, smiled and added: "This is natural. The 82nd game is coming to an end here, and it is also an extremely complicated ending. Before the game, I studied the results of the game and felt like my head was spinning.

It’s not enough, it’s a bit complicated. What’s more, this game is a duel between Wood Lin and LeBron James. I feel the power of youth.”

During the pre-game commentary in the commentary box, the live director's camera searched the auditorium of Quicken Loans Center one by one. Unfortunately, he could not find anyone who excited him, except James' mother.

"Wood and LeBron came together and both of them were laughing? Who said there was a lot of conflict between them." Hoffman said, looking at James and Linsen.

"Tonight, 1:1!"

"1:1?" Lin Sen was stunned for a moment and laughed, "I want to become 2:0."

"See you at the game!" James smiled and turned to leave.

Lin Sen looked at James' sturdy figure and shrugged, turning around and walking towards the players' tunnel.

If he had not been traded this season, he would have welcomed James at home in Minneapolis after the All-Star break, but because he was confirmed to be sent to Orlando during the game against the Cavaliers, this opportunity was lost.

The Orlando Magic had already played three games with the Cavaliers in more than a month before Linson's arrival. Linson's only chance to represent the Magic and James' Cavaliers was tonight.

James meant to tell him not to take away another victory from Cleveland. How could Lin Sen easily give in, even with his mouth? So Lin Sen shouted "2:0."

At this moment, Stan Van Gundy and Mike Brown were also checking the assistant coach's communication equipment. Before that, they had determined that as long as the situation on the Heat side was clear, they would fight to the end. Once the Heat showed a losing rhythm,

Then stay focused.

Pat Riley is also thinking about how to play the game against the Clippers. The Clippers must win in order to have any hope of the playoffs.

Regarding this, Pat Riley is a little worried about this group of veterans. Once they lose, they are likely to fall to eighth in the Eastern Conference.

In that case, the Heat will have to face the Detroit Pistons, who are No. 1 in the Eastern Conference. Although the Detroit Pistons sent defensive core Big Ben Wallace to Chicago before this season, there is no doubt about the strength of the Pistons, and he is absolutely unwilling to face such a matchup.

As you can see, he is still more willing to face knights and magic.

However, the outcome of the game is not controlled by the Heat at all. Once the Washington Wizards defeat the New Jersey Nets in the last game, the Heat can only try their best to defeat the Clippers. If they cannot rely on the Nets' 2:1 victory over the Heat, the Heat will only

Can be ranked eighth in the Eastern Conference.

Therefore, like Stan Van Gundy and Mike Brown, the assistant coaches prepare communication tools early so that they can know the games between the Nets and Wizards and the Cavaliers and Magic as soon as possible.

With the on-site DJ's faint voice, the Magic players ran out of the tunnel one by one, and were greeted by huge boos.

When Lin Sen heard his name, boos already filled the audience outside the tunnel.

After smiling, Lin Sen raised his head and walked out.

The moment Lin Sen ran out of the tunnel, the boos at Quicken Loans Center reached their highest decibel level.

However, Lin Sen heard a particularly kind voice among the huge boos. Although it was small, Lin Sen heard it very clearly.

He raised his right hand high and waved it twice in the air. The boos at Quicken Loans Center became even louder, but the cheers mixed with the huge boos still persisted.

"From the boos like this, we can know that Wood is now the most threatening one to the visiting team players. This is the treatment that a super player should enjoy." Hoffman said with a smile.

"Obviously, yes, but I remembered that the last time Wood represented the Timberwolves here against the Cavaliers, the two of us provided live commentary, but this time it seemed not as exciting as last time." Bill Walton watched the flash on the big screen.

The audience picture passing by said.

"Obviously, last time I remember Wood kissed a nine-ball queen." Hoffman laughed.

At this time, the lights of Quicken Loans Center dimmed again, and the voices of the fans in the audience turned from boos to cheers.

The Cavaliers players came out one by one amid cheers. When James came out for the last time, the cheers reached the highest decibel, which was completely opposite to the boos given to Lin Sen.

"Orlando and Cleveland have been rotating players in the past few games. In today's game about who can get second place in the Eastern Conference, let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides tonight." Bill Walton looked at his hands.

player list.

"The Cavaliers' starting center is still Lithuanian Igauskas, power forward Drew Gooden, small forward LeBron James, shooting guard Larry Hughes, and point guard Eli Snow."

Hoffman continued what Bill Walton said: "The Orlando Magic's starting center tonight is Dwight Howard. However, the power forward still maintains the Turkish Turkoglu instead of Chris Webber, who already paid in the last game.

.

The small forward is Azubuike, the shooting guard Carlos Arroyo, and the point guard is Wood Lin. This lineup is the same as the previous game, but who will guard LeBron? Rookie Azubuike? It seems that it is not enough.

Reality."

As the commentators spoke, the starting players of both teams stepped onto the court. Stan Van Gundy and Mike Brown did not stand on the sidelines as usual but sat off the court.

"Scenes like this are rare. Are the coaches on both sides full of confidence in the game? Obviously they all know the complexity of this game. I guess the best part of this game will have to wait until the last quarter and several other games.

The results will be out soon.”

Bill Walton said with a smile, several small windows also appeared on the computer in his commentary box, which were the live broadcast windows of several other key games.

"beep!"

The bald referee Jamal Crawford, the referee of this game, took over the game ball, and the players on both sides took their respective positions.

Crawford glanced at the players on both sides and then stood in the center circle. Dwight Howard and Igauskas stood on both sides of the center line of the center circle.

Igauskas naturally knew that he might not have much hope of winning on the jump ball. After the whistle sounded, the ball was thrown into the air by Crawford.

Dwight Howard jumped up like a rocket and knocked the ball out with an absolute advantage.

Lin Sen jumped up and took the ball in his hands, and the Cleveland Cavaliers immediately retreated quickly.

Although Mike Brown emphasized the importance of following courtside instructions at all times before this game, the players on the court, especially LeBron James and Larry Hughes, did not want to lose to the opponent. At least it was clear during the game.

I didn’t want to fall behind the instructions before.

Lin Sen also didn't want to lose to James, although there was still a big gap between him and James at this time.

Lin Sen dribbled the ball past half-court. When he was still two or three meters away from the three-point line, James stood on the three-point line.

"It looks like LeBron is guarding Wood personally. This defensive arrangement is actually very good. After all, Kelana is not tall and Larry can defend him enough." Hoffman looked at James and said.

Just as the Cavaliers and Magic kicked off, the other 14 games also started.

Arroyo ran over and Lin Sen passed the ball, but Arroyo immediately passed the ball back to Lin Sen.

Lin Sen was preparing to speed up immediately after receiving the pass. James was not fooled at all, which forced Lin Sen to give up his plan to break through.

"What, are you disappointed?" James said with raised eyebrows.

"No way." Lin Sen responded with a smile, holding the ball between his waist and abdomen with both hands, raising his head and performing the most basic triple threat action.

Everyone was watching the two people facing each other outside the three-point line. Cleveland fans used boos to interfere with Lin Sen cheering for James.

"It turns out that the front part of this competition is not important, so just do it yourself!"

With the thoughts in his mind, Lin Sen's right foot quickly moved toward the left side of James' body. James was not fooled by such a tentative step at all.

Facing Lin Sen's three consecutive tentative steps, James didn't make any move.

"Wood's tentative steps did not yield any results. LeBron's defensive ability has improved significantly this season. Coupled with his physical fitness and attitude, LeBron can become the most terrifying perimeter defender in the league in time." Huo Huo

Fuman looked at James who was staring closely at Lin Sen and admired.

Lin Sen quickly retracted his stretched out right foot and bowed his body. At this time, Lin Sen's body straightened suddenly and he stretched out his right foot again, but instead of reaching towards the left side of James' body, he directly

Point a little in front of yourself and quickly raise the ball with both hands.

James, who had been unmoved by Lin Sen's probing steps a few times before, finally made a move this time.

James stepped forward with his right foot and raised his right hand high.

Lin Sen collected the ball in an instant, swatted the ball, and thrust his right foot directly to the right side of James' body.

James snorted inwardly. Even though he had been fooled by Lin Sen, it did not mean that his defense had failed.

Without retracting his raised right hand, he quickly retreated with his right foot, followed by a quick slide, and bumped his chest with Lin Sen, who was about to pass through his defense.

James was very powerful, and Lin Sen was in the process of breaking through quickly. Lin Sen's center of gravity swayed and his speed slowed down after James' collision.

James immediately seized the opportunity when Lin Sen slowed down and once again used a half-slip step to completely press his body against Lin Sen.

He believed that as long as Lin Sen wanted to continue to break through, he would be able to withstand Lin Sen. As long as Lin Sen dared to take action, he would not mind starting his game with a hot block.

Everyone thinks that the best result for Lin Sen is to pass the ball. Only this is the most rational and correct choice.

However, Lin Sen's stubborn temper has also arisen. Like Kobe Arenas, Lin Sen's character on the court also has paranoia. Lin Sen does not think that he has to pass the ball under such circumstances.

Since he couldn't use speed and strength to kill him, he simply got out of the way. Thinking of this, Lin Sen swatted the ball with his left hand and moved his left foot to the side and back. In an instant, there was a gap between him and James.

However, James did not leave enough time for Lin Sen and instead quickly bumped into him.

Bang!

Lin Sen's center of gravity was thrown into chaos again, but Lin Sen didn't do the same as last time. Instead, a smile appeared on his lips.

He bowed his body and stepped forward with his right foot, looking like he was about to break through again. James immediately moved his steps, but he soon discovered that Lin Sen was fake.

Lin Sen stepped back again and at the same time swung the ball with both hands.

James immediately jumped up, but when he jumped up, he immediately realized that he had jumped too early.

Lin Sen jumped up when James started to fall, and James was helpless and could only watch Lin Sen throw the ball in front of him.

"Wood shook LeBron and took a two-point shot directly from the high post. This is an excellent opportunity!" Bill Walton looked at the jumping Linsen and shouted.

Looking at the basket in the distance, Lin Sen quickly moved the ball with his fingers, and the ball left Lin Sen's palm and flew out.

The ball drew an arc in the air and steadily entered the basket.

"I scored!" Lin Sen looked at James and said with a chuckle. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
