Chapter 528 Reappearing the legend?
In this way, the teams in the Eastern and Western Conference finals are very obvious.
In the East, the Heat played against the Pacers, and in the West, the Nuggets played against the Grizzlies.
If it is expected that the Eastern Pacers and Heat can enter the Eastern Conference Finals, then the Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals against the Grizzlies is really unexpected. ,
The Nuggets have always been weak, and only the two years when Billups and Carmelo Anthony worked together were considered a strong team in the league.
But never made it to the finals.
The Nuggets, which are now being rebuilt, suddenly entered the Western Conference Finals. This is in the Western Conference. The eliminated teams include the Clippers, Spurs, Thunder, Lakers and other super teams.
The Nuggets' trade this season has also been praised by the media.
TNT news:
"Being able to trade Iguodala and Darko is definitely the most successful choice for the Nuggets in the past ten years. In the draft ten years ago, the Nuggets uniform team was very happy that the Pistons chose Darko with the second pick. But now it seems that they may choose Carmelo Anthony, which is better for the Nuggets."
"Andre Iguodala performed better than expected. He played well on both ends of the floor."
Fox News:
"Maybe, this year the Nuggets can really complete the legend of the Kings and win the championship quickly after rebuilding."
In the eyes of all fans and media attention, the East and West finals have begun.
West, no problem.
The Nuggets have a great advantage against the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies are strong inside, but the Nuggets' strength lies in their comprehensiveness. They have won four games in a row and won each game by relative advantage.
The Grizzlies were helpless.
There is a lack of superstars on the outside who can attack with the ball, and the skills of the two players on the inside have some overlapping skills. This has affected the strength of the Grizzlies in the eyes.
In the East, the Heat played against the Pacers, and there was no big problem.
When the Pacers are in good shape, they can slightly restrict the Heat, causing certain difficulties for the Heat, but overall, the Pacers cannot withstand the repeated bombing of James and Wade.
In this way, the finals will be determined.
In the finals of the 2012-2013 era, the Nuggets played against the Heat.
As soon as the list came out, the media began to predict the finals of this season.
"The Nuggets have sprung up and are expected to replicate the legend of the Kings."
"The Big Three of the Heat draw their salaries from the bottom of the pot, and fight to the death to defend the honor of the Big Three."
"Darko: I'm ready, this is my favorite battleground."
"The battle of the strongest kings in 03, Darkomilicic's redemption!"
"James: We want nothing but victory."
……
On June 2013, 6, the first game of the finals began.
The Heat host the Nuggets.
In the first game of the finals, both teams played very hard and implemented tactics as much as possible. At this time, the gap between the two teams came out.
The Nuggets are both internal and external.
Darko acts as the axis, high-post support and offense-oriented, Gallinari, Iguodala assists, and other role players also play impressively.
The Heat are based on the Big Three.It should not be said that the two giants are at the core.
James' efficiency in the first game was mediocre, because Iguodala's defense was in place, which greatly restricted James.
When Iguodala first entered the league, the upper limit was also very high, but now, many people think that he is just a role player.
The 76ers also swept Iguodala out last season.
But when it came to the Nuggets, Iguodala performed very well and was all-around offensive and defensive. Perhaps the biggest problem for Iguodala was that he couldn't do his best on the offensive end, and he always felt worse.
But with the Nuggets, that's not a problem.
In the first game, the Nuggets played very well tactically. They suppressed the Heat and exhausted the Heat in the away game.
After this game, the direction of the media changed again.
TNT news:
"Dakota is a superstar, the first brother locks up James, and the Nuggets are expected to replicate the legend of the Kings."
Fox News:
"The most incredible championship in NBA history. If the Nuggets win the championship this season, it will become the most incredible championship in NBA history. If the Kings' championship was won after accumulating for a year, then the Nuggets really won it."
"The core of the team, Iguodala and Darko, were almost sponsored by two other teams and given to the Nuggets. This is very rare in NBA history."
……
After the first game, experts are generally optimistic about the Nuggets.
No way, Iguodala was too successful in defending James. James shot just over 22% in the first game. He scored 8 points, 6 rebounds and [-] assists, which was a new low in the playoffs.
incredible!
If this goes on, the Nuggets are really very hopeful to win the championship.
But at this time, Qin Yang met a reporter on the farm and expressed his opinion:
"I see the Heat winning the championship. The reason? There is no reason. Whether the team can win depends on other factors besides tactics."
Qin Yang's words also aroused heated discussions.
6 month 9 number.
The second game of the finals begins.
In this game, James changed his play. Bosh and James began to play pick-and-rolls. James avoided Iguodala before attacking.
The Heat's offense suddenly opened up.
Not only that, Gallinari encountered Wade's tenacious defense, 16 of 4 in the game, and the Nuggets didn't want it.
In their second home game, the Heat suppressed strongly and did not give the Nuggets a chance.
The two teams drew 1-1.
After the tie, the experts changed their tone again: The Heat have a high probability of winning the championship, and the Nuggets lack the championship temperament.
Anyway, you are happy.
In the third game, the Nuggets returned home and played very tenaciously. Dakko's defense was very strong, but in the fourth quarter, Wade and James made consecutive attacks. With 3 minutes left, Dakko made six fouls and left the field. Then in the last 3 minutes, the Heat reversed the point difference.
2-1.
The Heat made the press.
In the fourth game, the Nuggets played against the Heat at home. For the Nuggets, this game is a battle of heaven and earth. If they lose, there is almost no possibility of winning the championship.
The Heat also want to win the game as soon as possible.
The two teams fought fiercely and persisted until the fourth quarter.
For the first time in the fourth quarter, the two teams tied, Darko scored the last goal, and the two teams fought hard for overtime.
Overtime.
Both teams were exhausted, and at this time a real giant appeared.
Bosh, who has been sprayed by fans for more than two seasons, stood up. At the critical moment, Bosh made two consecutive shots, post-up singles, and misplaced shots.
That's not counting, Bosh blocked shots on the defensive end, got rebounds, and took away the Nuggets with a wave.
3-1, the Heat won the match point.
In the fifth game, return to the Heat's home court.
Everyone believes that the Heat will undoubtedly win this game.
But at a critical moment, Darko broke out.
"The only thing I've learned around Bruce is never give up until the last minute."
