Chapter 667 The division finals are open! 【Subscription】
Lin Long, who was waiting for his opponent in the Eastern Conference finals in the North Shore Garden, sighed when he heard that Mourning had to leave the stadium early due to kidney disease, and might even retire early.
In his memory, Mourning should have been reimbursed for the season due to kidney disease at the beginning of the season, but there was no kidney disease until this time of the season. Lin Long thought that it was because of his arrival that the butterfly effect was produced, which made Mo Ning suffer. Ning, this iron man, is free from disease.
Unexpectedly, what should come will always come, and no one can escape. Mourning was suddenly diagnosed with illness at this time of the season, and he directly missed Game 6 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, which also made Lin Long sigh.
The toughest and most kind man in this league also left this league temporarily with regret and unwillingness.
Lin Long sighed, he remembered that in his world of "880", Iron Man Mourning was seriously injured in the last game of his career and his entire knee ligament was torn, but he refused to lie on a stretcher was carried out.
Instead, let Wade and Haslem take him out.
Afterwards, Mourning said: "I know nine times out of ten this is the last game of my career. If this is a goodbye, I will never allow myself to be carried out! I can't let My kids asked me later: Dad, why are you being carried out."
"So I choose to go out, I can't let my kids down, I can't lie down and leave the basketball court, this is my favorite place, I stand up, I stand up and go!
Lin Long thought of this and sighed deeply. He knew that Mourning would definitely come back, but he also knew that Mourning had completely bid farewell to his peak.
He took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Mo Ning.
"Hey Alonzo, I don't know if you want to get my texts right now, but I think you'll definitely be back in this league! I'm waiting for you! I'm going to charge you a few more. Also, if Miami doesn't need you anymore, come to Boston! I'll give you a place here!"
"FUXX!
Mourning's reply was simple and direct, but Lin Long believed that Mourning had received his blessing.
The next thing to do is to prepare for the second showdown with the 76ers!
In last year's Eastern Conference finals, under the leadership of Iverson, the 76ers took the lead and won their first victory in the Eastern Conference finals, breaking the Celtics' unbeaten streak of seven series. This time, Lin Long Made up my mind, never let the 76ers have any chance of stealing the victory from the home!
He wants to completely suppress the 76ers from the first minute of the game, completely dispel their thoughts and ideas of promotion, in simple words.
Just from the first round of the game, beat them to the death!
Lin Long's idea was also revealed to everyone in the team in a training before the game, and naturally it also won the unanimous support of the whole team!
They just want to rule the game, rule the series, rule the league!
After all, this season's Celtics have another purpose and pursuit besides winning the championship!
Become the best team in history!
Then one of the most important indicators, there is no doubt that the playoffs are the same as the regular season, to achieve a complete victory!
They don't want even the slightest flaw in this perfect season!
The 76ers and the Celtics are also very interesting to say, they are similar, but not at all!
First, they both have a superstar, Iverson and Lin Long, then they have a top blue-collar center in the league, Mutombo and Big Ben, and a sixth man of the best, Manu Ginobili and Aaron McGee, plus they all have top coaches Larry Bird and Larry Brown who have been the best head coaches in the league.
It sounds like these two teams are so similar, but their game content is completely different!
The 76ers are an ultimate one-man team. Team leader Iverson averaged 29 points per game in the regular season, and the playoffs reached a crazy 34 points. The team's second scorer, Mutombo, is a complete blue-collar player. 80% of his scoring methods are tipping, dunking and eating cakes. His scoring average is only a pitiful 14 points.
The team's top scorer is averaging 20 points more than the second place, and it's a feat for a team like this to reach the conference finals!
The rotation of the two sides is even more different. The 76ers' model is to shorten the rotation and force the main force. Since the playoffs, Iverson has played an average of 45 minutes per game. Folsom's playing time will be a horrific 47 minutes!
That said, Iverson is on the court and he hardly rests unless the game is spent!
Mutombo also averaged a terrifying 43 minutes per game, plus 39 minutes for Snow, 38 minutes for Troy Longer, 39 minutes for Aaron McGee and 32 minutes for George Lynch, 76ers Used throughout the playoffs, almost a 6-man extreme rotation!
And what about the Celtics? Although there is a super core of Lin Long, he still does not have more than 30 minutes of playing time in the playoffs! In the entire Celtics, no one has averaged more than 30 minutes of playing time per game!
The whole team uses an exaggerated 10-man rotation, and Bird often shows off his deep bench depth and rotation strength with a coquettish five-up and five-down!
The Celtics are really strong this year, from the starter to the backup!
And these two teams that look similar but are completely different are also destined to play something impressive to the fans in the Eastern Conference finals!
Not to mention, there is still a hidden contradiction between the two teams...
That is what has been called the most crap award and the most nonsensical award of the season.
The best sixth man in the league!
In the regular season, Gino, who averaged 19+5 per game and 3.3 Billy, would actually lose to Aaron McGee, who averaged 11+5+5 per game, in the selection of the best sixth man. It is simply unreasonable and logical. !
Apart from the league deliberately suppressing the Celtics and not wanting them to overwhelm other teams, there is really no reliable and plausible excuse to explain this.
After all, in terms of record, data, style of play and even looks and the international market, Ginobili is in an almost crushing lead over McGee.
But this award is for McKee!
Ginobili, who was full of anger and dissatisfaction, once again showed his attitude and focus against the Magic in the team's last few training sessions. He wanted to let the league and McGee know that this is the best Sixth person, if you don't give it to me, then prepare to be embarrassed!
