One Thousand Three Hundred and Forty Three: Gone

The combination of George and Leonard finally took an early vacation.

Link and his teammates won the Western Conference Championship trophy at the Staples Center, in this basketball mecca, on this highly anticipated super stage.

In the speech after the award, Link also said frankly: "The Western Conference championship is just an accessory. Our real goal has always been only one, and that is the O'Brien Cup. We are only close to victory now. After winning the O'Brien Cup, then That’s the real victory.”

Link is outspoken about his desire for the championship. Anyway, even if he doesn't say it, the whole world knows what Link wants.

No one will ever regard the division champion as a real champion. Only the players who lift O'Brien will be recognized by everyone.

The Grizzlies broke out of the Western Conference for the fourth consecutive year, which undoubtedly became the hottest topic of the night.

Winning the trophy this time also made the Grizzlies the second team in NBA history to win the Western Conference Championship trophy for four consecutive years.

The last time they were so arrogant in the Western Conference was the Los Angeles Lakers from 1981 to 1985.

As we all know, the alliance has always had a pattern of "strong in the west and weak in the east". It is indeed very difficult to win the championship in the "Wild West" for four consecutive years.

It is obvious that the gold content of this record is high.

And at the beginning of the season, no one thought that the 32-year-old Link could continue to shine with a group of "old, weak, sick and disabled".

Therefore, the great contrast caused by the results achieved by the Grizzlies now gives fans many topics to discuss.

In addition, Paul George's phrase "No one can beat Link" has also become one of the hot topics.

His exaggerated speech also aroused heated discussions among fans.

Some people say that George is just saying polite words in front of his old classmates to show off Link's face, and there is no need to take it seriously.

But some people think that George thinks so from the bottom of his heart.

Because throughout the sixth game, George was suppressed by Link and couldn't hold his head up. He understands Link's current state better than anyone else.

He believed that if even he and Leonard were helpless, others would certainly not be able to deal with him.

Both sides hold their own opinions,

There was a lot of bickering on the internet.

George never expected that what he said as a loser could cause such a big stir.

However, the day after the game, some fans' attention was diverted.

Because today is the day when the winner of the Eastern Conference finals may be decided.

The Grizzlies' opponent in the finals is likely to happen today!

At this time, the Milwaukee Bucks had already achieved match point, leading the 76ers with a total score of 3-2.

As long as they win one more game, the Bucks will reach the NBA Finals for the third time in franchise history.

Although the Bucks have reached the finals twice before and won the championship once.

But that was in ancient times after all.

In most people's minds, the Bucks have nothing to do with the finals and championship.

The Milwaukee Bucks have been immersed in this for so long that their fans actually regard this year as the first time the Bucks have made it to the Finals.

But the 76ers are not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Philadelphia's lineup, to put it bluntly, was specially built to deal with Antetokounmpo.

Embiid, Horford, Simmons, Harris, Richardson...

As long as these "Big Five" shrink collectively, they can effectively contain Antetokounmpo's impact.

In the past, Antetokounmpo would be targeted in the playoffs because of his obvious shortcomings, so that he lost the game.

But this time, Antetokounmpo showed his stronger side.

This time facing contraction, Antetokounmpo increased the number of throws he took.

Moreover, the Bucks' shooting rate from outside the three-point line is also more stable. As long as the 76ers dare to shrink, they will have to eat three-point threats from other Bucks.

In addition, the 76ers' own offensive attack also dragged them back.

When the Bucks couldn't score, the 76ers themselves couldn't score efficiently.

In the final analysis, there is still a problem with the 76ers' exaggeratedly narrow offensive space.

In the last moment of the last game, the Bucks obviously made two mistakes. But the 76ers successfully lost the game with their stable offensive performance.

So today, 76ers coach Brett Brown finally decided to change the lineup in order to solve the team's offensive problems.

He took Horford out of the starting lineup and replaced him with second-year guard Shake Milton, who is 1.98 meters tall.

All of Milton's statistics are very mediocre, but the only attraction is his ultra-high 45.3% three-point shooting percentage.

Since the space cannot be stretched, then add a sharpshooter. Brett Brown's arrangement seems to be fine.

Sometimes, in the playoffs, a great change can change the situation.

But after seeing the 76ers starting this game, Bucks coach Budenholzer almost smiled crookedly.

The 76ers' formation change is not great at all. On the contrary, they are digging their own grave!

After the game started, Antetokounmpo attacked the basket crazily, with an alarmingly high success rate.

Without Horford, the 76ers lack the strongest shield to defend Antetokounmpo.

Although Horford is not very famous, he is one of the best players in the league in defending Antetokounmpo.

When Horford was still with the Celtics, Antetokounmpo would suffer every time he met the Celtics.

The reason why the 76ers are willing to keep Horford is that they hope he can play a role at critical moments.

Now Brett Brown has taken down Horford himself. Isn't this self-destructive?

So today, Antetokounmpo played almost unscrupulously.

And what about the 76ers' offense? It's still the same, and it hasn't improved because of the emergence of Shake Milton.

Because the 76ers' offense basically revolves around Embiid and Simmons.

As long as they are crowded together, the 76ers will never have enough space.

In the previous five games, although the 76ers' offense was poor, at least their defense was in place.

Well, now, the advantage they are most proud of has been wiped out. This game is unplayable!

Facts have proved that the game is indeed unplayable. Because halfway through the third quarter, the Bucks already led by 21 points.

Antetokounmpo's impact today is unmatched. The more he plays, the more excited he becomes, and the more excited he becomes, the more excited he becomes.

Brett Brown actually gave him a chance and ruthlessly destroyed everything he could like Antetokounmpo.

In the end, this "Greek monster" scored 45 points on the 76ers, causing a mess!

45 points, which is also Antetokounmpo’s single-game scoring record in the playoffs!

With Antetokounmpo's terrifying performance, the Bucks finally defeated the 76ers and became this year's Eastern Conference champion!

This also means that Antetokounmpo and Link, the Bucks and Grizzlies will meet in the finals!

At the end of the game, all the Bucks players were extremely excited. After all, it is basically the first time for the Bucks players to participate in the finals.

They firmly believe that 2020 is the beginning of this team becoming the top team in the league!

The era of Link ends and the era of Antetokounmpo begins!

After the game, Antetokounmpo, who performed extremely well today, accepted an interview with reporters before accepting the award.

When they talked about Paul George's advice, Antetokounmpo just waved his hands in disdain.

"Paul George may not be able to get an advantage over Link, but that doesn't mean I'm the same as him. Link hasn't played in a tiebreaker in the finals? Haha, if I have the chance, I'll let him play Just tried it once.”

After Antetokounmpo finished speaking, he rushed to the podium with his teammates to celebrate the hard-won Eastern Conference championship.

Link looked at Antetokounmpo's ecstatic expression in front of the TV and didn't feel nervous.

Indeed, the "Greek Monster" performed very well today, but the strength of the 76ers... Link didn't think defeating the 76ers meant anything.

To describe Antetokounmpo's current state in one word, he is floating.

Half an hour later, Link responded on social media.

"Thank you Antetokounmpo for your kindness. I am very happy and touched to hear that you want to accompany me to play the seventh game. But unfortunately, I only want to play four more games before retiring. So, no need to bother."

The smell of summer fireworks. Finally started to spread in the air.
