The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

During the interview, some reporters also asked Wang Xiao if he had the confidence to eliminate the Wizards and advance to the Eastern Conference Finals.

Faced with such a question, Wang Xiao did not give a positive answer, and this was also regarded by the media as a sign of his weakness.

"It seems that facing the dynastic team that was built by himself, this legendary coach is not sure of winning. I don't know if he will regret it. After all, he left a team that is extremely competitive and has the potential to continue to win. A championship-caliber team."

Some sunspots who didn't like Wang Xiao cheered even more, as if Wang Xiao was finished.

"Hahahaha, are you stupid now? Let you pretend like a fool! Let your team do it, you deserve it!"

"Just relying on a few strong stars of the Wizards to lie down and win three championships, I don't know why. I even tried to leave the thick legs of the Wizards, but in the end I was beaten by the thighs of the Wizards. It's embarrassing enough."

"It will be difficult for Wang Xiao to win the NBA championship in the future. After all, not every time he is lucky enough to select a capable star, leaving the Wizards is the biggest failure of his entire coaching career!"

There are always jumping clowns who will jump out at this inappropriate timing to find a sense of existence, but such jumping clowns are only a minority, and the vast majority of people are rational and have their own analytical ability.

Although Wang Xiao's Bucks seemed helpless against the Wizards, how many teams in the entire league can play back and forth against the Wizards?

To put it bluntly, the team he built has already achieved absolute dominance in the league. It is by no means an ordinary team that can compete. Last season, the team won 73 games in the regular season and won all the playoffs. The record has fully proved this point.

If you leave the Wizards aside, the Bucks have definitely been successful this season. They have an excellent record in the regular season, and even eliminated the veteran Atlanta Hawks in the playoffs. As a rebuilding team, if this If it is not considered a success, then more than half of the teams in the entire league can be directly defined as failures.

Not to mention, this is the first season of this young Bucks team. In the next few years, with the further growth of these potential players, the Bucks will become stronger.

...

On May 5, the second game of the second round was still at the home court of the Washington Wizards.

In this game, Antetokounmpo Antetokounmpo suddenly broke out and dominated the inside of the Wizards. He scored 27 points, 16 rebounds and 7 assists in a quasi-triple double in the whole game, and even suppressed the opposite Renner. Germany, but the Wizards still had the last laugh in the game.

Antetokounmpo once experienced the experience that both James and Durant have encountered, the kind of helplessness that even if you are omnipotent on the court, you still cannot help the team win.

After returning to Milwaukee, the situation did not improve. In the third game that followed, at their home court, the Bucks struggled to resist, and still lost the crucial third game, allowing the Wizards to get the match point.

When the total score came to 0:3, the series had lost its suspense. After all, there has never been a situation in the entire league history where a 0:3 deficit can pull back four consecutive games.

On May 10, in the fourth game of the series, the Bucks, half of their body hanging on the edge of the cliff, staged an extremely exciting game at their home court.

Antetokounmpo, Oladipo, Jokic, Middleton and others all played the best performances of their careers. They cooperated with each other tacitly and felt very hot. At the same time, the touch of the Wizards' outside shooters dropped to freezing point. From Curry to Thompson, George's long-range shots were all inaccurate. Under the ebb and flow, the Bucks struggled to get back a game at home, making the score 3:1.

However, the fans of the Bucks were not happy for long. The Wizards who returned to the home court simply cut the melons and vegetables and fixed the total score at 4:1.

So far, the Milwaukee Bucks' journey to the playoffs has stopped in the second round.

The Wizards advanced to the Eastern Conference finals, waiting for the winner of the other two teams in the Eastern Conference.

The other group of games in the East is the Cleveland Cavaliers against the Brooklyn Nets, and the situation is basically becoming clear at this time.

Jeremy Lin is very good, both offensive and defensive, and also has a strong ability to control the field and connect teammates.

But against the Big Four Cavaliers, it still seems to be alone.

At present, the score between the two sides is 3:1. The Cavaliers have already held the match point, and the score will soon be changed to 4:1.

In this regard, Jeremy Lin was also very helpless. In the last game, he scored 28 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists, but he was unable to lead the team to victory.

With several years of training in the league, Jeremy Lin's skills and body have reached the peak state, and when the potential of the growth template card has been fully tapped, he has reached the peak of growth.

Jeremy Lin at this stage has skills similar to Kidd's, and at the same time has his own excellent ability to break through with the ball. Compared with Kidd at his peak, his scoring ability is better and more versatile.

But even so, Jeremy Lin's weakness is still exposed. As a top superstar, his passing ability is comparable to only a few players in the entire league, but in terms of scoring, Jeremy Lin still lacks the explosive power that a top superstar in the league should have. .

This is a problem with most traditional point guards, and Jeremy Lin, who inherited Kidd's growth template card, is the same.

Kidd's highest scoring season in his entire career was only 18.7 points per game, and his career scoring average was only 12.6 points per game.

In contrast, Jeremy Lin's scoring is much higher. After several seasons in the league, Jeremy Lin's career scoring average can reach 19.4, which can almost reach the threshold of averaging 20+ per game.

The reason for such a high score is mainly due to Jeremy Lin's own ability.

Regardless of Kidd's growth template card, Jeremy Lin himself has a good scoring ability. The man who caused a storm in New York in another world is not in vain.

It's just that Jeremy Lin's own technical characteristics are relatively extreme. Like Rose, he is easily injured during a fast breakthrough. Once he loses his explosive power due to injury, the threat of breakthrough will be greatly reduced.

Since Jeremy Lin became famous, he has been injured frequently, and his performance has been worse year after year.

But Jeremy Lin who used Kidd’s growth template card doesn’t have to worry about this problem. Kidd’s strong physique makes it difficult for Jeremy Lin to be injured. At the same time, because he has enough strength, Jeremy Lin doesn’t need to be very fast when he breaks through. Opponents can often use their strength to squeeze into the inside and score.

It can be said that the current Jeremy Lin perfectly combines his own and Kidd's technical characteristics and becomes more perfect.

However, even so, it is still not enough. Neither Kidd nor Jeremy Lin are far from being good scorers, which also makes the Nets have no resistance when facing the Cavaliers.

When Howard, who is still at the end of his peak, is guarding the basket, and James is watching from the flanks, ready to help defend at any time, with Jeremy Lin's ability, it is really difficult to score in front of these old hooligans, and losing the game will become Take it for granted.

In this way, the two teams in the Eastern Conference finals have been determined, and as in the previous two years, it is still a one-man show between the Wizards and the Cavaliers.

Although this has been the result for several years, the audience still can't get enough of it, especially this year, with the Wizards without Wang Xiao, can James seize the rare opportunity to cross this mountain to win the first championship of his career? became the focus of fans' attention.
