One Hundred and Ninety-Eight: 2 Amazing Teams

May 2, 2011, Staples Center. Kobe Bryant, who has scored 36 points, is holding the ball from beyond the three-point arc. All Staples fans are waiting for Kobe to contribute a lore!

There are 3 seconds left in the game, the Lakers are 1 point behind, and Kobe is in control of the ball. This seems to be a script specially written for Kobe. According to the "script development", he should score a lore, stop the Texans from advancing, win the first game of the Western Conference semifinals, and express the Lakers' determination to win the three-peat.

However, Kobe Bryant's difficult three-pointer did not make it in the end. The electronic buzzer sounded, the entire Staples was in an uproar, and the defending champion Lakers lost!

"No, God, Kobe Bryant missed the lore! This means that the Dallas Mavericks reversed and defeated the defending champion with a maximum deficit of 16 points, and won their first victory in the Western Conference semifinals! Dirk Nol Witsky scored 16 points in the second half, and the Germans and his team are very ambitious this year!" On the commentary stage, Mike Brin shouted in surprise. No one could have imagined that Dirk, who has always been "weak", and the calf who has always loved to lose his chains at critical moments, could actually fight tenaciously to the end at Staples.

With a 16-point reversal, the Dallas Mavericks gave the defending champion a sense of crisis! Nowitzki led the Mavericks' five starters to score in double figures, and on the Lakers side, except for Kobe and Gasol, everyone else's performance was very average.

Looking at the ecstatic appearance of the Mavericks players on the court, Mike Brin was trying to recall what happened in the past two days. In this year's playoffs, there are so many incredible things happening!

After all the first games of the Western Conference semifinals were played, the results were different from what everyone imagined. In most people's minds, the Lakers, who are heading for a three-peat, will definitely book a spot in the Western Conference finals. And the old-fashioned powerhouse Spurs may play hard with the Grizzlies, but still be the winner.

As a result, in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals, both favorite teams lost.

Kobe just missed the lore and ruined the good situation. And yesterday's game between the Spurs and the Grizzlies, Link's 25 points and 10 assists, also let the first in the West slumped.

These two games can be said to be equally miraculous. The Grizzlies relied on strong perseverance to stabilize the situation under the situation of the Spurs' crazy counterattack, and completely ended the game in the last minute and a half of the game.

On the Mavericks side, they trailed by 16 points at halftime, but they came back little by little thanks to everyone's efforts.

The amazing qualities displayed by these two underappreciated teams have caused chaos in the entire Western Conference.

On the court, Kobe reluctantly walked into the player tunnel. He looked at his knees and sighed deeply. Seeing this situation, Mike Brin hurriedly took out Kobe's data sheet today and found that Kobe didn't score in the penalty area today! Only 4 of the 36 points came from free throws, and the rest basically depended on jump shots!

Yes, Kobe has been facing huge injury problems this season. In today's game, Kobe basically did not break through. He scored 36 points by shooting alone, and Mike Brin was terrifying to think about.

But Mike Brin didn't praise Kobe for this idea. He thought of another topic that was more worthy of discussion, "I'm not sure, the two teams that will finally participate in the Western Conference finals this year will be beyond our imagination."

"What did you say?" Beside Mike Brin, Kevin Harlan asked in surprise.

"I mean, the victory of the Mavericks and the Grizzlies yesterday was not just an accident. The Lakers and the Spurs, two high-profile teams, actually have a big problem. The Spurs have insufficient interior reserves. There's no fresh blood. They can't defend against the Grizzlies' inside attack, and Parker and Manu Ginobili have a hard time killing the game under the Grizzlies' terrifying perimeter defense. The Spurs lineup is completely restrained by the Grizzlies!"

"On the Lakers side, Kobe's condition is a big problem. He hardly made any breakthroughs today, and he scored by shooting the whole game. Kobe can score 36 points today, but it is impossible to score such high points by shooting every game. Kobe's knee Suffered all season, an unhealthy Kobe,

Can it really withstand the impact of the Mavericks? I think it's too hard, the Dallas Mavericks are definitely one of the most underrated teams this season. "

After Mike Brin finished speaking, Kevin Harlan did not refute. Can Kobe and Duncan be killed just by the "underachieving" Grizzlies and the Mavericks who always fall off the chain at critical moments? Harlan was still a little unacceptable.

After all, since 1998, only in 2006, Kobe and Duncan have not been seen in the Western Conference finals. This Western Conference finals attendance is enough to illustrate the ability of Kobe and Duncan.

Kevin Harlan is not used to a Western Conference finals without Duncan or Kobe.

But I have to admit that Mike Brin is right. The victory of the Grizzlies and Mavericks is not accidental, they really have the potential to change the pattern of the entire West!

Harlan can't wait to find out how it will end.

Link has been on fire in Memphis recently, after all, he's become the most successful rookie in Grizzlies history, bar none. This title of his will somewhat embarrass Thabeet, who has begun to take a vacation, and Mayo, who has been reduced to a bench.

Because in people's expectations, they were supposed to play Link's role at this time.

All of Memphis was talking about Link, and there was speculation about how far he could grow. Countless fans flooded the streets, holding signs outside FedEx Arena, begging Chris Wallace to keep him this summer.

The transfer rumors about Link have become as hot as Chris Paul, who has become a star!

But in San Antonio, Link was not very popular. There's no question that Link has become one of San Antonio's most hated players. Because of his double-double data, the Spurs fell into a promotion crisis.

On May 3, the second game between the Spurs and the Grizzlies in the Western Conference finals officially kicked off. Today, the Spurs scored 45 points in GDP, helping the team regain a city at home. But even so, Spurs fans are still not happy. Because today, the Grizzlies only lost 4 points to the Spurs. If it weren't for the Grizzlies missing a few key balls at the last moment, the Spurs would have to roll over.

Link had 17 points, 7 assists and 4 rebounds, and his good performance continued.

The next day, the Dallas Mavericks beat the defending champion 93-81, and the Lakers lost all two home games! Nowitzki scored 24 points and 7 rebounds in the audience, and Gasol was taught to be a man. The Lakers made 2 of 20 three-pointers, and only 10% of them made three-pointers. On this side of the West, the situation is still going against expectations.

On May 6, the Western Conference semifinals continued. The Mavericks continue to win at home. Nowitzki made 4 of 5 three-pointers and scored 32 points in one fell swoop! The German has a history of being overturned from a 2-0 lead, so he won't allow that to happen again.

Gasol scored 13 points in the game, shooting only 38.5%, and continued to be taught to be a man. The Lakers are 3-0 behind, and unless a miracle happens, the defending champion's three-peat dream will be broken!

A day later, the Grizzlies beat the Spurs 91-88! Randolph scored 25 points in the game, beating Duncan, who had only 13 points, showing his terrible attacking power. Link had 14 points, 8 assists and 6 rebounds, and was as versatile as ever. The Grizzlies kept up with the Mavericks and gave the Spurs another hit.

On May 8, the Lost Lakers were madly trampled by the Mavericks 122-86. The Mavericks went crazy. In the first half, they made 11 of 15 three-pointers, tying the NBA playoff record. The audience made 20 of 32 three-pointers, also tied the record. "Jet" Terry is even more surprising. He made 6 of 7 three-pointers in the first half and scored 20 points, and 9 of 10 three-pointers in the whole game, tied the NBA playoff personal record!

Veteran shooter Peja Stojakovic was equally amazing, making 6 of 6 three-pointers in the whole game, and the Lakers were shot to death!

So far, the Mavericks swept the defending champion and successfully advanced to the Western Conference finals! The Lakers also embarrassedly became the seventh defending champion in NBA history to be swept in the playoffs. What's even more shameful is that the Lakers have 3 seats out of the 7 defending champions that have been swept...

The Mavericks performed magically and shocked the world. Of course, Mike Blind's post said it well - "Don't be shocked too early, because next, more surprising things may happen!"

Sure enough, on May 9, the Spurs kneeled again! In Game 4 of the Grizzlies-Spurs series, Tony Parker hit 100 shots in the first half and scored 19 points on 7 of 7 in the first half. He has some momentum to lead the Spurs counterattack.

But in the second half, when Hollins decided to send Link to help defend Parker, the game changed. The Spurs didn't score for nearly 5 minutes in the second half, and they were beaten by the Grizzlies 14-0! The gritty defense and determination of the Grizzlies were not defeated by Parker's hits in the first half.

On the contrary, the Spurs were restrained by the Grizzlies' tough defense, and there was no rhythm in the second half. The Spurs shot only 37.8 percent in the second half, and they were also in Memphis in the end, defeating the Grizzlies 86-104. None of the Grizzlies scored 20 in this game, but five scored in double figures. They successfully defended their home court with team offense and gritty defense!

Link had 13 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists. His numbers in the last few games were all down compared to the magical first game that created team history. But no one thought that this guy was just a flash in the pan. Everyone knows that when Hollins needs him to score, the Chinese No. 0 can score 20 minutes a minute.

Just like last year's Hill, he almost disappeared on the tailwind. But once the team is against the wind and needs him to stand up, he is bound to!

So far, the Grizzlies have a 3-1 lead over the Spurs. Although there are also examples of counterattacks in the NBA playoffs when they are 1-3 behind, but judging from the current situation of the Spurs, it is not realistic for them to counterattack the Grizzlies.

Randolph was in the Spurs interior to ask for anything, but the Spurs' offense repeatedly overturned under the Grizzlies' defense. The fact that the lineup is restrained cannot be salvaged by the Spurs' hard work. Not surprisingly, the Grizzlies and the Mavericks will break everyone's expectations and meet in the Western Finals as dark horses!

The Grizzlies are going to the Western Conference finals! Believe that now, there are still many people who can't believe the authenticity of this matter.
