This striker is not serious

Walken Dean was very happy, but what happened later proved that he was...happy too early.

G4, the Nets lost.

Jokic still is, but in this game Jokic was like a fat little pig being run over all over the court.

Budenholzer speeded up, and Jokic obviously couldn't keep up with the speed on the court.

This was also the first time since he entered the playoffs that he struggled.

But it's not entirely his fault, because that's just the way he is.

This is more like a game between the coaches of both sides...

Budenholzer got the real pass from Popovich and beat Karl once.

2 to 2, both sides hit Tianwang Mountain.

Before Tianwang Mountain, Lu found Karl and told him some of his understanding.

Then when they arrived at Tianwang Mountain, the Nets made adjustments. Jokic basically stopped holding the ball in the low post and just stayed at the top of the key.

The advantage of this is that he can return to the backcourt at the first opportunity.

It's not a big adjustment, but it has a huge impact on the situation on the field.

In the end, the Nets suppressed the Hawks for the entire game, winning 106-88 and gaining match point.

This game also gave Karl a new understanding of Jokic's use.

Before Jokic improves his confrontation and skills under the basket, he can only "settle down" at the top of the arc.

Moreover, the coaching staff has also put it on the agenda to develop Jokic's low-post ability.

Before this, there were not many insiders who could provide support at the top of the key, including Sabonis, Divac, and Brad Miller.

But there are also differences in strength among these insiders. If Jokic can reach Sabonis's low-post strength, then no matter how well the Nuggets can operate in the offseason, they will definitely be able to reach the lower limit that Warken Dean expects.

Two days later, the Eagles' home court.

The Eagles, who were in dire straits, played a top-notch offense, but the Nets also played very well, and the two sides fought fiercely until the fourth quarter.

It is in this section that the weaknesses of team basketball are revealed, or the difference between the Hawks and the Spurs is revealed.

The Spurs' GDP was still a critical point with great certainty until the last moment, but the Hawks did not.

Whether it's Millsap or Horford, or Teague on the outside, they are all so different from Lin Ying.

Therefore, the decisive moment between the two sides can be described in one sentence: the superstar dominated the game.

115 to 105, the Nets defeated the Hawks in an away game, advancing to the Near East finals with a big score of 4 to 2!

Even without Johnson and Deron, Lin Ying still led this team to the conference finals!

And after 11 playoff games, Lin Ying averaged 35.1 points per game, which was even more exaggerated than his scoring performance in the regular season.

This is a performance that vividly explains what single-core is.

Shortly after the game between the Nets and the Hawks ended, the results of the other three groups of semifinals in the Eastern and Western Conferences were also released.

The Cavaliers are strong after a season of running-in. They defeated the Celtics 4-1. They only lost one game in the first two rounds.

But the bad news is that Josh Smith had his arm removed while fighting with Celtics insider Olynyk in the paint, and his arm was dislocated and ended for the season.

This casts a shadow over the Cavaliers' championship journey.

However, from the perspective of Lin Ying, a time traveler, this is already an acceptable result.

Historically, the Cavaliers also faced the Celtics this year, but it was in the first round.

Then it was Olynyk who removed Love's arm during the scramble.

A similar thing is happening now, except that the target has changed from Love to Smith.

In contrast, the Cavaliers at least retain the core lineup of the Big Three and are still very competitive.

Of course, this will be good news for the Nets. Without Smith sweeping around the basket, Lin Ying's scoring in the paint will become easier.

The Nets' chances of defeating the Cavaliers have obviously increased.

In the Western Conference, the Warriors defeated the Lakers 4-1.

This result is unexpected by many people.

But something that happened after the game gave a good explanation for this result.

The Lakers immediately announced that they had fired head coach D'Antoni.

The Lakers' defense throughout the series was appalling, allowing the Warriors to average 115+ points per game.

Although this Warriors team is the kind of team that can't help scoring points, the Lakers' defense is indeed a bit poor.

The Lakers' coaching selection for the new season will once again be a topic of concern to fans.

The semi-final matchup in this group was unexpected, while the other group was fierce.

After seven intense games, thanks to Durant's last-minute fadeaway from Duncan, the Thunder defeated the Spurs with a total score of 4-3 and advanced to the Western Conference Finals!

In two consecutive rounds, Durant contributed a decisive victory, and both were tiebreakers. This is the ultimate expression of his personal strength!

Even Buckley couldn't help but sigh at such a performance.

"If the Thunder can finally win the championship, Durant's name will be on par with Lin Ying."

It is worth mentioning that after being killed, Duncan seemed to have suddenly aged ten years.

Although he had been holding his anger for a whole season, it was finally released by Durant.

It was when he got up and walked to the locker room that he felt that he was getting older.

This result perfectly explains the saying: The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front, and the waves in front are beaten to death on the beach.

The NBA will be a world dominated by young people in the future!

In this way, the showdown in the Western Conference Finals is announced, Warriors VS Thunder!

Both teams are good at attacking, so the game will definitely be exciting.

…

The two sides in the East-West final have been determined, and the games will start one after another in two days.

But at this time, something that fans are concerned about will also be revealed.

MVP selection for the 2014~2015 season!

There are basically three people who have the loudest voices this season.

Curry, Durant and Lin Ying.

Among the statistics of the three, Curry is the weakest, averaging 23.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 7.7 assists per game, but he has the bonus of the Warriors' 67 wins.

Lin Ying's statistics are the most beautiful, averaging 34.1 points, 8.1 rebounds and 6.5 assists per game. This is no joke, but the Nets' 57-win record is also the worst among the three.

As for Durant, he averaged 32.7 points per game, 7.2 rebounds and 5.4 assists, and the Thunder's 61-win record was right in the middle.

Each of these three people has enough reasons to be elected MVP. It depends on how the fans define the meaning of MVP.

There are a thousand Hamlets in everyone's heart, and those thousand reporters will definitely value different things.

The final results are out, and the person elected as the MVP of the 2014~2015 season is... Lin Ying!

*Attached is the MVP voting results.

Lin Ying:30.6%

Durant:28.8%

Curry: 21.5%

James:8.23%

…

Although the victory was a bit thrilling, I still won.

After winning, Lin Ying also completed three consecutive MVP awards!

At this point, Lin Ying surpassed Jordan!

Throughout the entire history of the NBA, there are only three people who have accomplished this.

Two giant inside players from ancient times, Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain, and the other one is the "pressing king" Larry Bird.

Lin Ying became the fourth player in NBA history.

This also sparked heated discussions among fans on social media.

"Tell me louder, who is the legend?!" A comment from "Classic Lin Ying's No. 1 fan".

"Living legend! Well deserved, and Durant and Curry are also worthy of MVP. They made Lin's three consecutive games even more legendary!"

"A new era has arrived, and the battle between these three people will be very exciting for a long time to come!"

"LeBron is not old yet. If they want to become famous in this era, they have to go back a little bit!"

"Haha, if LeBron can't win the championship this season, I really can't think of anyone who would have the nerve to say such a thing."

"Let's see, the Cavaliers will win the championship this season! If they don't win, it must be Olynyk's fault!"

"Tsk, this hasn't even started yet. Have you already started looking for someone to take the blame?"

"It's so funny, look at how bad the Nets are now, did we ever say anything?"

…

Half a month later.

The East-West final is over.

The Nets lost to the Cavaliers 2-4 and stopped in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Lin Ying averaged 41.5 points in 6 games and performed as well as last season's finals, but the gap in overall strength between the two sides could not be made up.

Moreover, after Jokic's outstanding performance in the previous round, he was targeted miserably in this round.

Basically, it’s how Lin Ying feels in 1V5.

But the basketball game is not a one-person sport after all.

At the press conference after the game, Lin Ying attended with Karl.

"The departure or injury of Joe, Deron and others is the reason why the Nets lost their dynasty?"

A reporter asked Lin Ying this question.

This is also a very real problem.

With such a broken formation, Lin Ying still won two games at the hands of the Knicks.

If Johnson is still there and still in the same form as last year, and Deron is not injured, the Nets have a great chance of winning the series.

"It would be a bit false to say that this is not the reason, but that is not the main thing. This is not the first time I have experienced this situation. These are things that we will encounter on the road to the championship, and we are not the only ones who encounter it.

Some of our opponents are also absent due to injuries.

We will reflect and summarize after the game, and our goals for next season will remain unchanged."

Lin Ying's words triggered a new round of discussion on social media.

Especially compared to what Cavaliers fans said before, it seems very ironic.

However, what fans are discussing the most at this time is not the Eastern Conference Finals.

Because the game in the Western Conference Finals can only be described as "wonderful" and "up and down."

Before the Western Conference Finals started, most people were optimistic about the Warriors, and even thought the Warriors would easily defeat the Thunder.

Because the Warriors advanced easily in the first two rounds, while the Thunder struggled in two consecutive tiebreaker rounds.

In contrast, the superior and inferior judge.

But the progress of the game completely exceeded everyone's judgment.

In the first game of the Western Conference Finals, the Warriors played smoothly in the first half. At halftime, they already led the Thunder by 13 points.

But the situation suddenly changed in the second half, and the "Yong Three Crazy" did not start fighting. Instead, it was the Thunder's side, with Westbrook and Durant firing continuously.

And the most terrible thing is that the "Death Five" is useless against the Thunder, because when the Warriors let Green play five, the Thunder can use Ibaka to play five!

This kind of completely matched lineup makes the Warriors unable to go crazy.

In the end, the Thunder made a huge comeback in the second half, defeated the Warriors 108-102, and won G1.

In G2, the Warriors were pushed to the edge of the cliff and then broke out, defeating the Thunder and regaining a victory.

The game seemed to be evenly balanced again.

But no one could have imagined that in the next two Thunder home games, Durant would be like the god of death, unstoppable.

He scored 40+ in both games, leading the Thunder to a direct 3-1 lead over the Warriors!

After these two games, many people realized one thing:

Although the Thunder team encountered bumps and bumps along the way, they have been fighting fiercely with strong opponents, and their state has been fully stimulated.

Especially Durant, who won two tiebreakers in two rounds, and his entire state is at the peak of his career.

Up to this point, the series has been exciting enough.

But, it’s not ups and downs enough.

G5, the Thunder’s match point game.

Although it is the home court of the Warriors, the Thunder are trying hard to win the game here.

But the Warriors are also gritting their teeth. If their 67 wins are taken away 1-4, this will not only be victory and defeat, but also a matter of face.

The two sides fought extremely fiercely, and at the end of the three quarters, the Thunder only trailed the Warriors by 4 points.

It was a close contest, but in the last quarter the Thunder's biggest problem began to be exposed.

Durant's physical issues.

Just like when he played against the Nets before, Durant was out of energy and Westbrook was forced to take over the offense.

Then two key mistakes allowed the Warriors to take away the game.

The score on the court was finally fixed at 111 to 120, and the Thunder unfortunately lost.

The statistics after the game are very interesting. The shooting percentages of the core players on both sides are not high.

But Westbrook contributed 7 turnovers alone!

The classic "Best Defensive Player" meme went online after the game.

The Grizzlies and Spurs, two of the strongest defensive teams this season, couldn't guard Durant, but Westbrook did it.

"The only person in the world who can guard Durant is Westbrook!"

Then in G6, the Thunder expected to win the series at home, which was also their best chance.

But in this game, the "G6 soup" came. Thompson made 11 of 18 three-pointers and scored 41 points in a single game!

Curry also made 6 three-pointers and scored 31 points. The two interpreted what "Splash Brothers" are!

After losing in G6, the Thunder were beaten to a pulp, and the Thunder were in a sluggish state in the last game.

And what's worse than the slump is that Durant wanted to win, but he fought so hard that he fractured the metatarsal bone of his right foot and was reimbursed for the season!

But in the end, the Warriors defeated the Thunder 96-81, completed an epic 1-3 reversal, and advanced to the finals!

This night, this series, Thunder fans can't let go of this in their hearts for a long time.

This is their best chance to return to the finals and even win the championship.

But in the end, because of Westbrook's defense and Thompson's explosion, it all came to nothing.

Moreover, I feel very distressed.

Because Durant really tried his best, but still couldn't do it.

Looking back at Durant's NBA career, he was very close every time, but missed every time. It can only be described as tragedy and misfortune.

After learning that Durant was injured, Lin Ying took Yang Shuyi with him on a plane to Oklahoma City.
