NBA: Starting CBA system

[Congratulations to the host for achieving the achievement: breaking into the NBA playoffs for the first time, and receiving the reward: iron-blooded fighting spirit. The host will have a strong fighting spirit and a tenacious desire to win, and will not be easily defeated by the opponent's high morale! 】

"OK, playoffs, here I come!"

After receiving the reward, Jiang Hao's eyes gradually became firmer. Will he transform into a leader-level player in this playoffs? !

Two-in-one, exciting playoffs are coming!

Chapter 142: Defend against King Nuo at the beginning, I am not a super giant,

Chapter 142 141: Defend against King Nuo in the beginning. I am not a super giant, but I can make the opponent lose the super giant!

"It's the playoffs, no ambiguity, it's time to stand up."

Jiang Hao's psychological construction has been completed. After all, half a month ago, he swore in front of RC Buford that the team would not need to trade, but it would depend on my performance.

He also knows that there are many opinions from the outside world that he, a rookie in the playoffs, will be beaten by the Mavericks.

Now, it’s time to see his performance!

The fighting spirit was surging, and the very excited Jiang Hao went to the home arena first and shot 1,000 three-pointers and dunked 500 baskets to suppress the shock! ! !

However, the management and coaching staff did not think that Jiang Hao, Leonard, and Mills had a fighting spirit, so they kept the newcomers behind after training two days before the game to start a small fuss.

It was RC Buford who personally opened the small stove to make them mentally prepared.

"The playoffs are completely different from the regular season. Let me tell you the difference based on my experience."

1. The pace of the game is different: The most obvious difference between the NBA playoffs and the regular season is the pace and intensity of the game. There are usually 82 games in the regular season, and there are only a few series in the playoffs, and every game is very important to the players.

Therefore, the playoffs are more intense than the regular season, and players put more emphasis on defense and teamwork.

The main players will also play more time to fight. They cannot lose every game and have to fight hard to win!

2. Gradually escalating tension: Playoff games are played in a more tense environment. Especially before a knockout match, this tension is further escalated and every player will be more focused. The likelihood of mistakes will also be higher in the playoffs because the pressure on players will continue to increase.

3. Coaches will adjust tactics: During the regular season, coaches usually stick to their own tactical system. In the playoffs, coaches will adjust tactics more specifically to their opponents. If a team loses a game or two in a series, coaches may adapt entirely new tactics to suit their opponent's defensive and offensive strategies.

4. The roles of fans and arenas have become more important: Although the NBA regular season and playoffs attract many fans, playoff games attract a larger number of fans. The playoffs have a greater impact than the regular season and can arouse more interest among fans. Fans will follow the team's performance more closely and cheer for the team on the spot.

Similarly, every away game will be a devil's away game. There are too many off-field factors. Crazy fans are likely to make moves that affect the players. Not only the fans, but also the team must pay attention to the off-field moves.

RC Buford gave an example. When they met the Mavericks in the last playoffs, the Mavericks not only hid the remote control of the air conditioner in the visiting team's locker room, but even called the staff to turn it on but still didn't come.

Moreover, they put rancid sandwiches in a locker, which caused a strange smell in the locker room. The players were in a bad mood before they even played the game, which still affected their condition.

Jiang Hao also knows that everyone can use this trick, and the Spurs are the same. When it comes to a game that cannot be lost, they must use any trick! !

However, the Spurs hurt their opponent by one thousand and lost eight hundred by themselves. They released a small snake into the visiting team's locker room. As a result, they were probably attracted by Manu, a similar spirit snake, and ran to the home team's locker room.

There was also an air conditioner failure in the entire arena, and the fans suffered accordingly. However, under extreme conditions, the advantage of Spurs players taking turns to recuperate during the regular season can be reflected. Often the visiting team can't bear it first and suffers from cramps or something.

Who can struggle with victory and money? Every extra home game in the playoffs earns tens of millions of dollars more. Not only the players want to win, everyone is working hard.

This is the final difference between the regular season and the playoffs, the meaning and value of the championship: winning first place in the regular season has completely different meaning and value than winning the championship in the playoffs.

The regular season champion is just a "title", while the playoff champion is regarded as the real giant of the NBA.

From the perspective of fans in Jiang Hao's previous life, fans will not remember who ranked first in the regular season every season in history, but they will remember who the championship was! !

And even if they don't win the championship, the Heat, like the Black Eight Heat before Jiang Hao's time travel, rushing all the way to the Eastern Conference championship is enough to impress the fans.

This is the charm of the playoffs! !

RC is also worried that young people will lose their skills before they have played in the playoffs, and their mentality will collapse if they are messed up by Barea, Kidd, etc., so they take precautions in advance.

Be prepared for difficulty! !

"Young people, our Spurs haven't touched the finals floor in five years. It's a new year of playoffs. It depends on everyone."

"After the playoffs really start, I don't have time, and you don't have time to listen to me. Let me give you a slogan!"

Recalling the scene of winning the championship in 2007, RC Buford raised his hands and shouted:

"1-2-3!!"

Jiang Hao and Leonard pressed their hands together:

“go-spurs-go!!!”

“go-spurs-go!!!”

The silence before the war.

The social media of the playoff teams suddenly became quiet, and everyone was preparing for the game. No one came out to face the media.

More news is about where players from non-playoff teams go fishing and hiking.

Jiang Hao even watched the videotape of the Mavericks' playoffs last year for the first time in half a year. To be honest, he was really sick. But fortunately, he watched it with the whole team this time, so he could have a good time.

For example, lower your head and play with your mobile phone.

Watching the Mavericks’ recent movements from Hupu is more useful for him than watching the Mavericks video tape.

Just like in the previous life, the Mavericks were actually preparing to sign Yi Jianlian before the playoffs to make up for the Mavericks' weak inside line. Why the record dropped so much this season is closely related to Chandler's departure.

But Chandler went to the Eastern Conference and faced James in the first round.

I just don’t know if it was his own influence. After seeing how popular Jiang and Lin were, Cuban gave Yi Jianlian a 10-day short contract early after finishing the CBA.

At that time, it caused quite a stir, saying that the NBA would become a talent base for China in the future, and the Mavericks signed the UAE a little earlier than in previous lives.

But the result was the same. After playing a few games, Arab League suffered a season-ending knee injury. In his previous life, Yi Jianlian was also included in the Mavericks' playoff roster, but was not included due to injury.

Now the Arab League has returned to China after two 10-day short contracts, which is a good thing for Jiang Hao. He doesn't have to sell the face of his big brother on the opposite bench, so he can just go ahead and do it boldly! ! !

It’s just that it really lacks the attraction of the Chinese Derby, otherwise the popularity of this series will be even more intense. This is really the first time that two Chinese people have faced each other in the NBA playoffs! !

When the Mavericks signed the Arab League, a lot of fans were waiting to see Yi Jianlian dunk Jiang Hao.

Last 2 days of training! !

The assistant coaches and GDP will give a speech before every training game.

"Come on, brothers, we will face the Dallas Mavericks at home in one day. This is our old friend. Start preparing for the game!!"

"I know everyone is pessimistic after seeing the final rankings, but please look at the present and take it step by step."

"It's hard to pass, but it's difficult to pass!"

Duncan is so philosophical every time he speaks.

Indeed, the opponents that the Spurs may encounter next have made several players who were originally excited to win the championship suddenly become emo.

Some of them were not emo people at first, but now in the information society, there are so many comments online among relatives and friends. When we meet, they talk about how bad things are for you. What can you do?

Can we not be pessimistic? They are a team that has beaten them badly in the past and is recognized as a super strong team.

Many veterans in the team have had painful memories of being used as backdrops by the Mavericks, Grizzlies, and Lakers.

This luck is not on the Spurs' side, and you still want to win the championship?

Lotte Fighter Manu has a headache. Thinking of facing the Mavericks, the memories of his death will haunt him.

If Manu hadn't given 2+1 when he tried to block Nowitzki's shot from behind in 2006, the Spurs might have had an extra championship now.

And players who have played with Nowitzki all know that he is a bug. As long as he receives the ball, no one can guard his golden rooster independent shooting. Once he feels good, he can simply close the game.

So analysts are complaining even more, it’s difficult!

The atmosphere became more tense the closer it got to the game.

It is still the old Shi Buddha who will provide psychological counseling: "Don't worry about how the playoffs will be different. In my opinion, it is the same as the regular season. Just keep busy!"

"Okay, just do it!!"

"We really do it in every game in the playoffs!"

But today Jiang Hao suddenly added a sentence loudly after finishing talking about GDP:

"It's okay, follow me, we will win big!"

What he said was sonorous and powerful. Diaw, Bonner, Mills and others were all impressed by Jiang Hao who had just played in the playoffs. He didn't even feel nervous at all. This was not arrogance.

But leadership style! !

And for some reason, they believed what Jiang Hao said.

Follow him and you will win!

The iron-blooded fighting spirit given by the system has exerted its power, and every teammate has faith in this young figure.

RC Buford was also very satisfied with Jiang Hao's mentality before the competition.

In his opinion.

Because he is the only one who has not encountered any of these teams that get crazy strong as soon as they enter the playoffs. Those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. He is the Spurs' most reliable hope for the playoffs! ! ! !

Not to mention that Leonard also entered the playoffs for the first time. Can Leonard hit a separation dunk against the Heat and a three-pointer in front of the Knicks?

Often the confidence in the playoffs is based on the regular season performance! !

The first day of the first-round playoff window.

The Mavericks only arrived in the Holy City 5 hours before the game, and it was mainly close to them. I heard that they were warming up directly in Dallas to get in shape.

And Nowitzki, the golden-haired Maverick with blond hair, finally expressed his views on the first-round matchup in the pre-game interview:
