NBA: This flower path is a bit strong

Marv continued:

"In addition, I'm not sure whether the Raptors can win the championship this season with this formation."

"But next season, I think they will be the most unquestionable favorite to win the championship!"

As an employee of ESPN, Marv certainly won't tear down his own company.

So far, the biggest favorite to win the championship is still the Bulls, ranking first with 37.8%;

The second is the Jazz, with a 31.5% chance of winning the championship;

The Raptors are ranked third, with only a 29% chance of winning the championship.

The rest of the second-round teams share the remaining 1.7%, which is not very harmful but extremely insulting!

It has to be said that ESPN is really offensive when it comes to offending people. Let the other five teams share a 1.7% chance of winning the championship, and they are not afraid that the fans of other teams will dig up their ancestors' graves!

The first quarter ended with the Raptors' bombardment.

At 38:24, the Raptors led by 14 points and ended this quarter with the cheers of the fans on the scene.

"We didn't expect such a big difference before the game."

"The Raptors made 3 turnovers in the first quarter, and the Hawks also made 3 turnovers."

"In terms of rebounds, the Hawks grabbed a total of 8 rebounds in the first quarter, while the Raptors grabbed 11."

"Both teams were similar in terms of blocks and steals."

"In fact, if we compare the above data of the two teams, we find that the gap between the two teams is not that big!"

"The Hawks' organization of offense did not make any big mistakes, and the team's rhythm was also very precise, without too many mistakes."

"Their score was not lower than the score in a single quarter against the Knicks, and there was no phenomenon of players pulling their weight."

"Since the problem did not lie with the Hawks, it must lie with the Raptors!"

After analyzing this, Ma Fu suddenly found a "blind spot":

"As long as the ball is passed to Flower, the Hawks will be helpless!"

The live broadcast was given to the commentary room, and Ma Fu threw out this explosive topic.

He looked confident, as if he already had the standard answer in his heart!

Bill Walton was also happy to let this new partner perform, and he played the role of a supporting actor very appropriately:

"Why is this?"

Ma Fu pointed out one of Hua Dao's singles, which was the clip where Hua Dao pushed all the way to the basket, turned around and jumped up, and dunked the ball through Christian Laettner.

"Laettner is an All-Star substitute who is good at passing and rebounding."

"When he concentrates on defense, he can easily block the attack of players over 7 feet tall in the high post."

"But once he is asked to go to the low post, then perhaps his proud defense will become a loophole for the opponent's attack!"

"Look here, if this footwork defense is placed on the outside, it must be very good, a textbook defense."

"But Christian Laettner used it in the inside!"

"In such a small inside space, shouldn't he first do it to plant his feet, lower his heart, and resist the physical impact from Flower?"

Bill Walton understood it completely after hearing this.

This new groom is really good!

Yes, Christian Laettner has a good defense of the outside gate, but his position is the team's inside gate.

It was nothing in the past, after all, there was Mutombo who defended better in the inside.

So Christian Laettner can also roam in the high position, and this weakness that cannot be called a weakness has been effectively covered and blocked.

But today, when he encountered Hanamichi who attacked the inside line, this weakness was instantly magnified countless times and exposed nakedly in front of all the audience.

The defense itself has commonality, but who would have thought that Hanamichi could unravel the inside and outside defense habits of Christian Laettner!

"It seems that the [Ever-Victorious General] will also have a Waterloo day!"

(Christian Laettner is also known as the [Ever-Victorious General])

In the Yangshi live broadcast room, Zhang Heli said excitedly:

"The Hawks' inside defense can be said to be one of the strongest in the league."

"The All-Star double tower lineup of Mutombo and Christian Laettner ranks in the top three among the strongest inside duos in ESPN this season. Not only in terms of defense, it can even be ranked first!"

"For such a team, their inside defense cannot be said to be weak in any way."

"But in front of Hua Dao, it gave a feeling of being extremely weak and like a paper tiger!"

"No matter what the other players of the Hawks are like, at least Hua Dao can blow up the Hawks' power forward position and make him cry.Stop!"

"With Hanamichi's physical strength, it's completely reasonable!"

In fact, Christian Laettner did want to cry, especially when Hanamichi said to Hawks head coach Lenny Wilkens in the second quarter:

"Smiling [Magic] Johnson, arrogant [Bird] Bird, tough [Postman] Malone, low-key [Assist King] Stockton, crazy [Jazz] Barkley, mighty [Gorilla] Ewing, and "sissy" ever-victorious General Laettner."

"Coach Wilkens, don't pray that a sissy can defend me!"

"If you really choose to do this, then I can only kindly buy a ticket for you Hawks to go home for fishing after the fourth game!"

"Oh~ I almost forgot that you Hawks can fly! "

This trash talk is really poisonous. The second round of the playoffs is a best-of-seven format. What Hanamichi meant by this is to sweep the Hawks.

Any team that can make it to the second round of the playoffs probably can't stand this insult!

We have to fight even if we can't win!

Lenny Wilkens knows that although it is the first game, there is no way out!

If we are really swept, I'm afraid he, as the head coach, will not be far from resigning!

"Huh! How could I have thought of being swept? We were supposed to lead the team to the Eastern Conference Finals!"
