I am so Accurate

Chapter 632: History is always surprisingly similar

The Bulls’ journey to the Eastern Finals was not as smooth as expected.

After achieving a big score of 2 to 0, they soon met with a counterattack from the Celtics.

Just like Sun Hao said, this Celtics team is mature and as resilient as previous seasons.

They returned to the home court to win two consecutive cities and tied the big score to 2-2.

The two sides entered the G5 Tianwang Mountain.

The key Tianwang Mountain, the person who stood up... is still Paul!

In the Battle of Tianwangshan, he scored a large double-double with 30 points and 16 assists, helping the Bulls win a thrilling victory.

But the price was that his knee was injured.

Although not as serious as the same period in history, it is not light.

It is generally believed that Paul will be absent from G6, and then wait until G7 before returning to play a tie-breaker with the Celtics.

After all, G6 is played in Boston, whether it is from the injury or strategic level, this is a better choice.

But to everyone's surprise, Paul chose to play in G6!

His knees were wrapped in thick knee pads, which seemed incredible.

Not to mention anything else, the thickness of the knee pads is a visible burden to Paul, who focuses on breakthroughs.

The fact is also true. What fans saw in this game was not the familiar flying Paul, but Paul who put more energy into the organization.

And in the game, it can also be felt that Paul's injury battle has greatly increased the morale of the Bulls.

That's exactly the same as adding a buff in the game, 120% per capita play.

Among the crowd, Yi Jianlian had no intention of being the best performer.

He made 12 of 21 shots, scored 31 points and 10 rebounds, and gave Garnett a small blow to his opponent's template.

Correspondingly, Paul scored 12 points and 20 assists in the entire game with an alternative large double-double.

Facts have proved that a good traditional point guard has a huge bonus to the players on the team.

Paul, who is dedicated to organizing, has a historical level of ability in this area.

And it's not just the team's dual core, the role players are also remarkable.

In the end, the Bulls also beat the Celtics 103-96 on the road and advanced to the finals with a big score of 4-2.

After the game, Paul limped to the bench and sat down after the game, stroking his knees, crying uncontrollably.

Because of the existence of the Wizards, Celtics, Magic and other teams, although the Bulls have strength, they have never been optimistic about it.

But this year, they have also stood out among the Eastern teams without being optimistic!

Facts have proved that it is worthwhile for him to insist on playing G6 despite everyone's opposition.

Because although the tiebreaker is at the Bulls' home court, the Bulls who lost G6 are completely different from the current Bulls morale.

And the Celtics are characterized by toughness, long-lasting, really hit the tiebreaker, the Celtics will have a greater psychological advantage than the Bulls.

When he was crying, Yi Jianlian came over and patted the shoulder, then used his body to help him block the camera lens.

This is to protect him and avoid unnecessary negative effects.

Although Paul is the leading star of the Bulls in terms of team status, but Yi Jianlian, this is his seventh season with the Bulls.

After clearing up his emotions, Paul was pulled up from the bench by Yi Jianlian, and then waved to the audience with red eyes.

At this moment, for the first time since Jordan retired from the United Center, the United Center sounded the "MVP" shout.

Especially when the camera shows the "3" behind Paul, this scene is even more familiar.

Nine years ago, another No. 3 also did such a thing.

At this moment, the two figures overlap.

And it’s interesting that these two No. 3s led the team to do this in the fifth year of their careers.

History is surprisingly similar, and there is providence in the dark.

Paul and Yi Jianlian attended the press conference after the game.

"Chris, is your idol an AI?"

At the beginning of the press conference, reporters asked such questions.

Because it is too similar, it is difficult not to make people associate.

"Yes, I grew up watching AI play when I was young. I chose this number (No. 3). My desire for victory has been affected by AI."

Paul's answer caused the reporter group to explode.

The feeling that the guess has been confirmed makes people uncontrollably excited.

And this is too narrative, it is really the footsteps of followers idols, and then they have done what idols have done.

Even after hearing Paul's answer, some reporters unconsciously had the idea of ​​"what if the Bulls could win the championship this year".

Because if that were the case, it would be like a perfect ending in an American hero movie, which makes people feel too comfortable.

Waiting to make a documentary after winning the championship, then what Paul did this season can be compared to Kobe last season and James last season.

James' season, Kobe's season, Paul's season, every year has a perfect script, and there is continuity.

This is...perfect.

And compared to the Western Conference Finals because of injury, the Bulls' promotion this year is more narrative.

After confirming the battle against both sides, even with Sun Hao, the support for the Bulls in the United States is higher than that of the Warriors.

The most direct evidence is that in a survey conducted by ESPN called "Who do you hope to win this year's NBA championship", the Bulls' approval rate reached 52%, surpassing the Warriors' 44%.

"We are treated as villains."

Looking at the overwhelming media reports, Durant turned over social media and said to Sun Hao after the preparation and training this day.

"If I am a fan, I also hope the Bulls can win the championship."

Sun Hao said with a smile.

His expression looked relaxed.

Durant looked puzzled, this kind of being regarded as a villain is actually the pressure of public opinion from the outside world.

This kind of pressure is not a good thing for players.

He, a VIP user of social media, can't bear to watch the overwhelming reports.

"Enjoy this feeling, one day you will like it."

Sun Hao saw Durant's reaction, got up and reached out to touch Durant's head, and then went back to the dressing room first.

This feeling, he has already experienced when he was with the Lakers, especially in the last year of the dynasty, the whole world hopes to defeat them and become the terminator of the dynasty.

He was also under the same psychological pressure as Durant at the beginning, but after experiencing more, he was enjoying it as he said.

Because in some ways, being regarded as a villain is not a kind of strength recognition?

The finals will not start until three days later, and the two teams still have enough time to prepare.

At this time, the league announced the last batch of awards for the regular season: the best defensive team and the best team.

Best defensive team: Paul, Kobe, Gerald Wallace, James, Howard;

Best Defensive Second Team: Rondo, Wade, Josh Smith, Tyson Chandler, Greg Oden.

Oden, selected for the best defensive second team!

He was second only to Howard in the selection of the best defensive player before, which is a bit regretful.

But being selected to the second team is the best affirmation for him.

And this thing is judged, a very key factor is the visual senses.

The overall defense of the Warriors is average, and Oden's defensive sensibilities are very strong.

So this result is not so unexpected.

Best team: Sun Hao, Kobe, Durant, James, Yao Ming;

Best second team: Paul, Wade, Nowitzki, Stoudemire, Howard;

The best three stitches: Nash, Arenas, Anthony, Duncan, Paul Gasol;

Two years later, Sun Hao and Kobe began to be selected at the same time again.

And it is worth mentioning that Durant was selected for the best team for the first time in his career.

Facts have proved that Sun Hao's joining did not make Durant's data shrink much, but made him even worse into the ranks of super giants.

In the first year, he entered the third team, and in the second year, he jumped from the third team to the first team!

Three cores, two selected for a team, and one selected for a defensive team, which should have been a good thing for the Warriors.

But because the previous thing is ahead, this is actually a real hammer to their identity as the "big villain".

The day before the start, the Warriors arrived in Chicago by plane.

This is the first time Sun Hao has come to Chicago in the playoffs after playing in the league for so many years.

For him, there are many feelings.

Ten years ago, he ushered in the first trial of his career from this field.

Ten years later, the people who tried out with him, Reid suffered serious injuries, and House played as a substitute for the Celtics. It was true.

In this world, you can see love and hatred, and feel sad and happy, but the most intangible is this time.

After sighing, Sun Hao asked Yi Jianlian out.

Compared to the city of Chicago, Yi Jianlian is more intimate.

After crossing, he met Yi Jianlian and became closer than anyone else.

Sitting down in the Chinese restaurant, the two chatted like old friends they hadn't seen for a long time.

"Remember when we said we were going to play together?"

Yi Jianlian said with a smile.

Among all people, Yi Jianlian should be the person who has changed the most because of Sun Hao's character.

He is now much more cheerful than in the same period in history, which also helped him to play a better career in the NBA, especially this year, to the peak of his career.

The Eastern Conference finals scored 30+10 in the G6 playoffs. This is something that can be blown for a lifetime.

This can also be regarded as a change of direction to verify a lot of points in his previous life: Yi Jianlian can not play in the NBA, besides injury, there is also a personality.

And what Yi Jianlian said was really a memory kill.

They agreed to play for the Guangdong team together, but until now, except for the national team, they have not been able to play for the same team.

But now, they met on the biggest stage in the NBA like the Finals.

Life is really wonderful sometimes.

"Brother Hao, this time I want to win."

At the end of the talk, Yi Jianlian also said in a firm tone.

Sun Hao was stunned when he heard this.

He looked at Yi Jianlian's face again, and suddenly realized that the kid who had been calling him "Brother Hao" back then had grown up to become a big man.

This is actually normal. In seven years, one person can become another person.

"Then you have to cheer, if you win, I will ask your sister-in-law to introduce you a girlfriend, from Hollywood."

Sun Hao said with a smile.

"Actually... I already have a girlfriend."

Yi Jianlian said embarrassedly.

"is it?"

Sun Hao froze for a moment.

It was at this time that he suddenly realized one thing, how many playmates in his youth had become strangers when he grew up.

Because after having their own lives, the contact between each other has become less.

Although he and Yi Jianlian did not reach that point, they did not contact them as frequently as before.

"And, if I win this year, I am going to propose to her!"

Yi Jian connected and said that he looked like a child who reported to his elders at this time.

When Sun Hao heard this, he was suddenly at a loss.

Yi Jianlian said that he had won the championship and was ready to propose to his girlfriend.

If he kills the Bulls, will he ruin Yi Jianlian's proposal?

This... a bit tangled.

"Then you have to really cheer, your brother Hao won't be merciful."

Sun Hao still spoke.

The off-court relationship is off-court, and the game is a game. Knowing this is the most basic quality of a professional player.

"Of course, the love won is the most meaningful. If I can't do it, I will keep working hard!"

The words Yi Jian connected made Sun Hao a little moved.

This kind of Yi Jianlian makes people like it unspeakably.

And with this sentence, he thinks Yi Jianlian's performance in the finals will definitely not be too bad.

On the day of the match, both teams are making final preparations.

On the Warriors side, the biggest challenge facing Nelson is how to defend Paul.

Although Paul had been injured before, his injury was not too serious. After so many days, he should be fine.

Azubuike's season reimbursement exposed the lack of defensive ability in the backcourt when the Warriors played the Grizzlies in the first round.

Because of that, the Warriors allowed Rose to score 36 points on their heads.

But now, they are facing a defender who is much more mature than Rose.

In terms of grand strategy, it must be an offense to suppress the Bulls.

But in details, he still needs someone to defend against Paul.

Curry is the defensive bottom of the team's guards and is automatically excluded.

McGrady's current footsteps ~www.ltnovel.com~ to defend Paul is similar to the road in the morning.

Sun Hao is the most suitable candidate, but the old Nelson can't do things like letting the team's core scorer defend the opponent's core attack.

So the only people left are Watson, Finley and Danny Green.

The three have their own advantages and disadvantages, and it is difficult to prevent them from the perspective of ability alone.

So Old Nelson’s final strategy is: wheels!

It's not that he never did this kind of thing when he was in Dallas. In order to deal with O'Neal, he had five centers in one go.

Now facing Paul, the three wheels, plus Sun Hao's occasional rounds, these four are enough for Paul to enjoy a good meal.

And in the game day training class, the team also has good news.

The rookie Danny Green is in a very good state. This guard who has not gotten too many opportunities in the Warriors may be able to become a defensive surprise like Tyron Lue of the Lakers.
