With the defeat of the Supersonics, the four teams that advanced to the finals in the 96-97 season have all been announced.

They are the Toronto Raptors, Chicago Bulls, Utah Jazz, and Houston Mosaic!

Of course, the finals here refer to the divisional finals.

And according to the progress of the game, the winning rate of these four teams to win the championship has also begun to change.

The Mosaic team has the lowest, only 21.7%.

It is mainly because of the unstable performance of their core players and the series that just ended.

For the Big Three, who are 100 years old in total, playing one more game in the playoffs means that these veterans will have one more game of physical consumption!

Their next opponent, the Jazz, had a good rest for 6 days before the divisional finals, no, 7 days.

And the Mosaic team only rested for less than 12 hours after the seventh game with the Supersonics.

They flew from Houston to Salt Lake City and started adaptive training in advance after landing, which did not give these veterans any time to adjust.

Even the tactical arrangements were arranged by Mosaic head coach Rudy Tomjanovich on the plane.

So, on May 19, in the first game of the Western Conference Finals, Mosaic lost miserably to the Jazz!

Except for Olajuwon who scored 30 points, 13 rebounds and 5 assists as always, the other two giants really became two "rejection shots".

Clyde Drexler made 5 of 13 shots and scored 13 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist.

But this is the penultimate season of the [Glider]'s career after all. For a player who is about to retire, you can't expect him to play a stable performance of [20+10] every game.

But I didn't expect Charles Barkley, who came to compete for the ring, to also shut down in this game.

He only contributed 12 points and 8 rebounds, a super blue-collar data, and then he was offline!

This made the Mosaic team, which was already at a disadvantage, even more passive when playing against the Jazz who were waiting for the opportunity.

Throughout the game, the Jazz had more rebounds, assists, shots, hits, and steals than the Mosaic team.

They won by 15 points!

This also increased the Jazz's chance of winning the championship to 38.4%, ranking first among the four teams.

However, the most discussed topic among people is not the strongest Utah Jazz team in history, but the old and powerful team that is about to start the war~ the Bulls Dynasty and the new upstarts in the league~ the dark horse dragon!

On May 20, the first series between the Toronto Raptors and the Chicago Bulls is about to start!

Although this is an Eastern Conference finals, media reporters and fans around the world have already regarded it as the finals of this season.

The two teams with more than 70 wins in the league have fought against each other for several games on the stage of the playoffs.

The founder of the dynasty [Old Rogue] and the gravedigger of the dynasty, whether the former will win another victory or the latter will win first, wait and see in this game!

Toronto Rainbow Arena is boiling!

These two years have been the happiest two years for Toronto fans.

As the first generation of Raptors fans, they can see their team enter the playoffs in one year and the Eastern Conference Finals in two years, which is already something to be proud of.

Especially the miracles are still continuing. Maybe they will not only enter the Eastern Conference Finals in two years, but more likely the Finals and the championship!

Especially the one who led this team to accomplish this is a second-year rookie!

Imagine decades later, mentioning this to your descendants, what a big topic it will be!

"Must record it well!"

So, on May 20, the lights flickered in the audience.

Countless fans basically have a camera or video camera in their hands, and they want to preserve this round of [God-killing] series.

Amid the deafening cheers of the fans, the DJ on the scene roared with all his might to introduce the players of his team.

The last player to appear was naturally the team's superstar Hanamichi. Undoubtedly, he enjoyed the loudest cheers and the most dazzling flashes in the audience!

In this regard, even the [Old Rogue] who is a [God] cannot compare to him.

[God Killer] is the cheer given to Hanamichi by all the fans!

ESPN commentator Marv also commented on the Raptors' lineup again amid the cheers.

In addition to the usual starting players, he also raised a topic:

"I don't know if you have noticed that the Raptors' dual core is the youngest core combination in the league's history to lead a team to the divisional finals.

"Whether it is the 23-year-old Damon Stoudemire or the younger Flower, they are only in their second year!"

"WhenIn his rookie season, Magic Johnson made it to the finals, with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. "

"And Flower and Damon Stoudemire only have each other and a group of reliable teammates!"

"Before this season, who would have thought that undrafted Ben Wallace could become a strong defensive inside player?"

"Doug Christie could go from being a water cooler manager to a first-class shooter competing with the Eagle King, and a perimeter defensive pioneer who jumped back and forth between the Scalpel and the Nerve Knife."

"Who would have thought that the villain Charles Oakley was still strong and stable in the interior."

"The shining points of these players are not inferior to those of other teams."

"For the head coach and management of the Raptors who made all this happen, I, Ma Fu, would like to call them the strongest!"

Before Bill Walton on the side spoke, Comrade Zhang Heli, as a special guest, spoke hurriedly:

"This makes sense! ”

(It makes perfect sense!)

Perhaps worried that the two foreigners didn’t quite understand, so he explained:

“Although Hanamichi and Damon Stoudemire are sophomores, they have been playing together for more than three years.”

“Both of them have leadership qualities since college, so there is no problem in leading the team!”

“The most important thing is that these two core players have established who is the main and who is the secondary since the beginning of the season, just like Michael and Pierce’s clear division of labor.”

“Coupled with a group of strong teammates, I am not surprised that the Raptors can get to this point.”

“As Ma Fu said, miracles are still going on, but miracles are also created by people.”

“Hanachi once told me that his purpose in entering the NBA was to defeat Michael, and now is the time for him to fulfill his promise!”
