    Chapter 111: Opponents in the Eastern Conference Finals

    There were seven games between the Celtics and the Detroit Pistons.

    The Celtics first tied with the Detroit Pistons 1:1 at their home stadium, TD North Shore Garden Stadium, and then went to the Detroit Motor City. The Celtics unexpectedly won two consecutive victories under the leadership of the Green Army's Big Three.  The total score was tied to 3:1. Just when everyone thought the Detroit Pistons' season was over, the Detroit Pistons won two consecutive victories at TD North Shore Garden Stadium and Auburn Hills Palace Stadium, first home and then away.  The total score was evened at 3:3.

    It¡¯s another tiebreaker.

    However, in the seventh game between the two teams at the TD North Shore Garden Stadium, they did not perform as the media predicted. The Celtics easily defeated the Detroit Pistons with a score of 65:84 at the TD North Shore Garden Stadium.  Advance to the Eastern Conference Finals.

    In this way, all two teams in the Eastern Conference finals appeared. One was the Cleveland Cavaliers, who advanced in a sweep in both the first and second rounds, but was caught in trade rumors, and the other was a team in the first and second rounds.  They all beat the Boston Celtics who stumbled a bit.

    But in the Western Conference, the second round of the playoffs ended early.

    The second round of the Western Conference playoffs, Los Angeles Lakers vs. Utah Jazz; New Orleans Hornets vs. San Antonio Spurs.

    The first game to end was the Los Angeles Lakers vs. Utah Jazz game.  In this round of the series, the Los Angeles Lakers first took the lead in defeating the Utah Jazz in two games at home, and then went to the Energy Center, the home of the Utah Jazz, but experienced great discomfort.

    The Utah Jazz have always been a strong team at home, and the Energy Center Arena has always been known as the Devil's home stadium.  Amid the loud roars of the gangsters and the pressure of the Utah plateau, the Lakers lost two games in a row at the Energy Center.  But when they returned to Los Angeles and the Staples Center, they regained their form and won their third game cleanly.

    When they visited the Energy Center Arena again, the Los Angeles Lakers seemed to have adapted to the special climate of Utah after the previous two games. The boos in the stands no longer had a drastic impact on them, although Deron -  Williams and Boozer once had a wonderful cooperation, but the Los Angeles Lakers, who were running steadily, were not disturbed by the cooperation between the two, and finally won the fourth game of the series with a score of 107:100.  ,

    In another round of the series, the game between the Hornets and the Spurs once again featured a 'tie-break' battle. The old Spurs, the young Hornets, the most stable defense, and the most passionate offense.  The two teams with extremely opposite styles collided, which indeed brought a basketball feast like Mars colliding with the earth to the fans and audience.

    The last Finals MVP Tony Parker showed his decline in front of the young "Queen Bee" Paul. Not only were all the statistics suppressed by Paul, but his sluggish state even caused him to be yelled at by his wife Vicki.

    After Tony Parker was crowned Finals MVP, Vicki rarely yelled at her as often as when Parker first joined the Spurs, but in this series, Tony Parker suffered from Paul  The comprehensive suppression made **Vicci very angry. At the same time, he once again used the hair dryer that he had collected for a long time, and once again scolded Parker.

    Especially after the crucial sixth game, in which Tony Parker only scored 4 of 17 shots, 4 of 6 free throws, 12 points, and 5 assists in 34 minutes.  Its sluggish performance directly led to the Spurs losing the crucial sixth game and losing the opportunity to end the series early.

    After this game, Vicki even got angry at the post-match press conference, mercilessly reprimanding Tony Parker for being "unprofessional"!

    And, what¡¯s even more exciting is.  After the game, the media even broke the news that **Vicci angrily scolded Eva Longoria.  Among the words used are a series of extremely insulting words such as 'bitch', 'slut', 'bitch', 'big breasts and no brains' and so on.

    Eva Longoria is the star of the popular American TV series "Desperate Housewives" and the wife of Tony Parker.  In the 2006-2007 season, the Spurs once again defeated all teams to win the championship, and it was also the first time that Tony Parker surpassed the big brother Duncan and was elected as the finals MVP. After that, he and Eva Longoria officially announced their marriage.

    However, this marriage has been obstructed and vetoed by the Spurs coach **Vicci. There are even rumors that the reason why **Vicci scolded Eva after the Spurs lost was because he believed that "Eva"  The baby's excessive demands in bed consumed Tony's energy, causing his performance on the court to decline'

    What the media is most concerned about now is whether Eva Longoria will file a lawsuit against Vicki after knowing all this, and what will happen to Parker who is caught in the middle?At the same time, will you support your wife or your coach?

    However, even though so many things have happened, they cannot affect the Spurs' consistent stability.  Compared with the immature Hornets, the Spurs have too much experience in competitions. The more dangerous they are, the more calm and efficient they become.  The Spurs in the regular season and the Spurs in the playoffs are two completely different teams, that's it.  **Vicci, an iron-blooded coach with a military background, once again demonstrated his control over the team and his ability to mobilize the game at a critical moment.

    In the crucial seventh game, at the Ata Center Arena, the Spurs showed their incomparable efficiency and tenacity from the beginning. From the beginning of the game, **Vitch was included in the rhythm that the Spurs were accustomed to. The Hornets' first few games  The pick-and-roll offense commonly used in every game can no longer remain smooth in this game.  David West's performance was like sleepwalking under Duncan's defense, and Tony Parker also showed good form in the seventh game after being scolded by ***Vic, although he still couldn't stop Paul.  But it can create a situation of mutual explosion.

    In the end, the Spurs defeated the Hornets, the biggest dark horse team this season, with a record of 98:92 and a total score of 4:3, and joined the Lakers to enter the Western Conference finals.

    Zhang Kong knew that if he reached the finals.  Then the Cavaliers' opponents in the finals will most likely be the Lakers.  The Lakers in history were not so strong this year, and their perimeter defense was not very good. At that time, their most reliable perimeter defender was their star player Kobe Bryant.  However, in order to ensure Kobe's physical strength on the offensive end, it is impossible for the Lakers to choose to let Kobe defend the opponent's leading outside star.

    This season, the Lakers' best defender on the outside is Artest, the former best defensive player.

    Artest arrived at the Lakers one year earlier than in history. Although he was still unable to integrate into the triangle offense as historically, the Lakers did not need him to integrate into the triangle offense.  Artest, who is one year younger, is more energetic, physically stronger and faster than he was when the Lakers won two consecutive championships. He is also more capable of defending perimeter superstars.  However, relatively speaking, Artest's defensive efficiency against speed-type breakthrough players is not very good. The Spurs' two main breakthrough players, Tony Parker, take the speed route. He is known as a small sports car and is best at using speed.  Overwhelm your opponent.  Ginobili takes into account both speed and feints, and his league-famous snake-shaped breakthrough is definitely one of the most difficult breakthroughs to deal with on the defensive end.  It's also possible that this Spurs will cause a lot of trouble to the Lakers.

    The day after the Celtics series ended, Zhang Kong suddenly held a press conference.

    An hour before the press conference was held, the audience was already filled with media from all sides.  Speaking of Zhang Kong, he didn't originally have such influence.  After all, he has only been in the league for a year, and he still entered the league as a last-minute pick, so he originally received almost no attention.  Although because of his series of somewhat unbelievable statistics, his attention skyrocketed like a rocket, and then because of the scandal with Ivanka, his attention suddenly skyrocketed.

    ¡°But in Cleveland, a remote western city, and since the two had no new interactions since the hotel scandal, the fast-changing media has forgotten this matter.

    The reason why so many media are here.

    It was still caused by Zhang Kong¡¯s transfer rumors.
