Chapter 1357: Analyze Magic, Ask Dayao for Advice!
At the end of the game, the Magic won and Orlando was thrown into carnival!
"The game is over! Howard picked up Van Gundy high. This is the first time that the master and apprentice have won the Eastern Conference championship together, and it is also the second time in the history of the Magic that they have reached the finals. Howard looked very excited. He talked with him on the sidelines. The audience's enthusiastic interaction, after 14 years, the Magic finally returned to the finals stage under the leadership of another No. 1 center!"
"From O'Neal to Howard, this is more like a inheritance. The strongest centers of the two eras meet here at this moment. Magic fans have spent 14 years at a low point. Tonight, they can finally celebrate! " said Yang Yi, who was commentating on this game.
The Magic players on the court did exactly this. Compared with the Lakers, the Magic, which was entering the finals for the first time including the coaches, were even more excited. The entire home atmosphere was like a championship night, with lights, ribbons, and stages. , crazy players and fanatical fans resonated at this moment!
They seem to have forgotten that they still have one of the most critical series to play, but all this is understandable. Who would have thought that the Magic, which was still at the bottom of the league in 2004, could stand out in the fiercely competitive Eastern Conference and reach the NBA Finals in 2009? In the finals, at the beginning of the season, people discussed the Green Army's revenge, during the season, they discussed the crazy James, and in the playoffs, when the Cavaliers vs. the Lakers were discussed, who would have thought that the Magic would win?
As Su Qun said:
"Fourteen years ago, the Magic entered the Finals. 14 years later, I saw the Magic return to the Finals for the first time. At this moment, I was completely impressed by their calmness. That touch of blue was like ice, conveying the essence of team basketball. James, who became a legend this year, witnessed a game that could be included in Howard's career video tape. The emperor became a supporting role, the Magic is worthy of pride, the calm internal and external combination, the calm rotation, no matter how many points behind, he will not panic. This team made me understand what a real finals team should do."
"The Magic deservedly made it to the finals!"
The Magic continued to enjoy their moment of happiness and glory, and under the gaze of a few cameras, James, a loser, quickly returned to the locker room with his head lowered, leaving this arena full of bad memories for him.
Two years later, he once again fell on the road to the championship. This time, he was the favored team and was finally counterattacked by the Magic. This sense of loss and blow was even stronger than when he was swept by the Spurs. .
He entered the league at the age of 18 in 2003 and is already 26 years old. For a guy who aims to become the first player in the league, or even the first player in history, 26 years old can be seen as a hurdle. Although the outside world has been saying that James is still There is enough time to catch up with Kobe and even Jordan, because Jordan won his first championship when he was 28 years old.
But think about it, there is only 2 seasons between 26 and 28. And looking at the Cavaliers' current lineup, who can guarantee that he will win the championship in these two seasons?
More importantly, he needs to face pressure from two directions. In the past, Kobe Bryant continued to win his own honors and championships, and later, another young man who entered the league at the age of 18 was constantly attacking him, even faintly. There is a tendency to transcend.
Under such circumstances, James could no longer remain calm!
"We lost, yes, we need changes, we need better people, I mean, I have the last year of my contract, and I will try my best in this year." James said after the game .
That's right, he couldn't stand it anymore. Watching the Big Four of the Lakers next door killing each other, looking at the partners around Howard, and then looking at his teammates, James really felt like he was beeping.
Looking back on these years, since entering the NBA, although James has been having a smooth sailing in the regular season with everyone cheering and surrounded by thousands of people, in the playoffs, he has been ravaged by the Spurs, Magic, and Celtics one after another, and the little emperor's heart has long been distorted. .
So he stopped pretending and showed his cards, either someone will come or he will leave!
This is the truest thought in his heart at the moment!
The outside world was naturally in an uproar, and it became the second most popular news after the Lakers-Magic Finals!
Because this is the first time that James has revealed the idea of changing the court after the contract ends, this makes the entire league instantly turbulent, and makes the people of Cleveland feel like they are facing a formidable enemy!
James' fandom has become a symbol of Quicken Loans Arena and even the entire Cleveland. No Clevelander can accept James' departure. It is conceivable that after seeing this news, the entire Cleveland will definitely go through something this summer. There are twists and turns. As for whether James will stay or go, it will be left to time.
(Wade: Brother, wait another year!)
…
The whole city is in a turmoil due to James' incident, but Los Angeles is still peaceful. The Los Angeles media surprisingly did not report too much on James' incident. Because there is Ji Feng in the team, they don't pay attention to where James is going. He is unlikely to come anyway. The Lakers are right.
The Lakers are still training step by step to prepare for the upcoming finals. The outside world's voices belong to next season. That is something only those who are fishing at home have time to pay attention to. They only need to aim for the O'Brien Cup.
On June 1st, after checking that everything was OK, the Lakers started their first tactical training session. They will conduct a systematic analysis of the Magic.
Through the Magic's two-round series with the Celtics and Cavaliers, the Lakers have long known what kind of team the Magic are.
To put it bluntly, they are a one-star team, with and without Howard. In addition to Howard, Turkoglu and Lewis are their engines and second scoring points. The three of them average points per game. The total is 55 points, accounting for more than half of the Magic's total points per game. The Magic only average 95 points per game.
This also means that as long as the Lakers defend these three people, victory will not be too difficult.
So can the Lakers do it?
Of course, the Lakers have Ji Feng and Ariza at the third position, so they will not be afraid of Turkoglu. It is Turkoglu who should think about how to play, and inside, Bynum and Gasol Towers can at least match Howard's 55, and with the help of Ji Feng and Kobe Bryant on the outside, he might even have an advantage.
As for the other people, their levels are about the same, it just depends on their performance on the spot.
So the Lakers are really confident in playing the Magic.
What Ji Feng is even more concerned about is that he has finally encountered magic. He finally has at least 4 opportunities to face Warcraft. So, can his last skill mission be put on the agenda?
On the afternoon of the 1st, after personal training, Ji Feng dialed Dayao's phone number!
