Chapter 247 This Will Be a War!
·
Zhuan Zhu
G1's 45+ individual performances, G2's triple-double show, and Chen Yan's performance in the first two playoff games caught everyone's attention!
Various media once again praised Chen Yan.
The influence of the playoffs is far greater than that of the regular season. There are only 16 teams participating in the playoffs, and the media's focus on each playoff game is much higher than that of the regular season.
Not only the media, but also many current and retired players in the league are full of praise for Chen Yan!
Wade: "This guy has had a fantastic start to his career that everyone would envy!"
'Glider' Drexler: "I'm a fan and it's a treat to watch him play."
James even joked in an interview: "I don't think he should be called a supernova in the future, but a superstar!"
The active triple-double king Kidd also gave a pertinent evaluation: "That guy is very good. A triple-double is not an easy achievement, especially in the playoffs."
'Magic' Johnson: "Look at this kid, one day he's going to rewrite all the records in his own name!"
Although Chen Yan broke the youngest triple-double record created by 'Magic' Johnson in the playoffs, 'Magic' still praised him very generously.
After returning home after the game, Chen Yan petted the dog for a while. After moving to a new house, Chen Yan also raised two dogs, a Erha and a bulldog.
Then, Chen Yan talked on the phone with his family members and Taylor Swift respectively.
Chen Yan's parents have been watching their son's game in front of the TV. Although Taylor Swift did not come to watch the game, she also followed Chen Yan's development.
Apart from competitions and training, Chen Yan's private life is basically like this, very simple and innocent.
Later, the results of some playoff games were also released.
The Lakers won 101-88 at home, leading the Jazz 2-0 overall.
The Mavericks beat the Hornets 95 to 90 at home, extending the total score to 2-0.
The Wizards beat the Raptors 87-80 at home, and also led their opponents with a total score of 2-0.
Tonight's only upset was born in the game between the Spurs and the Rockets. With Tracy McGrady's miraculous scoring of 6 points in a row at the last moment, the Rockets beat the Spurs 89 to 86 in the away game!
When the final whistle sounded, all the Rockets fans couldn't help shouting: The man with 35 seconds and 13 minutes is back!
McGrady was very happy. When interviewed by the media after the game, he got carried away and said: "I don't think this is an upset. This is our true level tonight!"
In fact, out of selfishness, Chen Yan hoped that the Rockets would win the series against the Spurs.
After all, playing the Rockets is much easier than playing the Spurs.
But this is obviously a small probability event.
Take a look at the Rockets' player configuration!
Yao Mai, Scola, Battier, Hayes... are all honest people.
Looking at the Spurs, Bowen, Finley, Ginobili, and Popovich are all a bunch of old men.
There is also the seemingly honest but black-bellied Duncan, who will do whatever it takes to win the series.
In terms of strength, the Rockets are not at the same level as the Spurs.
A large part of the reason why Chinese fans have the illusion that the Rockets are a strong team is because of Dayao.
The existence of Dayao makes domestic fans know every Rockets player very well. When judging the strength of these players, the fans also look at it with a filter.
In addition, Dayao, another core member of the Rockets, was reimbursed for the season due to injury during the regular season, so even if the Rockets struggled to win an away game, the outside world is still not optimistic that they can cross the Spurs and enter the second round!
The next day, fly to Denver with the team!
The road trip to the playoffs is about to begin!
Both G1 and G2 Suns achieved big victories. The outside world agrees that the Suns' promotion form is very good, and the sound of sweeping is also one after another.
On the plane, D'Antoni specifically loudly emphasized that the players should take a good rest after arriving in Denver, and at the same time reminded them not to be dazzled by the first two victories, and it is not time to celebrate.
The Sun players nodded and said that they also know that Denver has never been an easy place to conquer. There are crazy fans and super high-altitude arenas here.
......
......
April 4, US local time.
Denver Pepsi Center.
The fans wore T-shirts of uniform colors and held high the slogans motivating the team. The atmosphere at the scene was very enthusiastic!
Before the game, the atmosphere in the Nuggets locker room was tense.
Losing this game means that the Nuggets' journey to the playoffs this year is over. No team can come back from a 0-3 deficit. If the team has the strength to come back, it will not end up in a 0-3 situation. up.
In this tense mood, Iverson stood up and spoke again: "Hey! Brothers, forget about our defeat, forget about our pain, forget about all the past, all we have to do now is win this damn game the match of!"
Unlike the speech in the previous game, this time Iverson's call got a positive response from his teammates.
Everyone put their hands together and chanted the team's slogan!
Returning to the home court also allowed them to regain their confidence and courage.
While the two sides walked out of the player tunnel, the big screen also displayed their respective starting lineups.
Suns starters: Nash, Chen Yan, Raja Bell, Diaw, Stoudemire.
This lineup has been used since the regular season and is very stable.
The Nuggets made some changes here. Nuggets coach George Karl removed Anthony Carter and replaced him with a taller and stronger Kleiza.
Although Anthony Carter can sort out the team's offense to a certain extent, his defense is too broken, not tall enough, and not fast enough. It is a disaster for him to deal with the Sun's running and bombing army.
George Karl also made some adjustments in the defensive strategy, starting with Kenyon Martin to defend Chen Yan.
This means that Anthony has to do some dirty work inside on the defensive end.
The Nuggets have reached the brink, and Anthony has also made concessions.
Although Kenyon Martin struggled against Chen Yan, the effect was much better than that of Iverson. At least he could interfere a lot when Chen Yan made a jump shot. If the defense line was broken, it could only be handed over Camby is gone.
Before the jump ball in the middle circle, Anthony stared fiercely into Chen Yan's eyes and said, "This will be a war, and the fans here will tear you apart."
Chen Yan replied with trash talk without hesitation: "It's a pity that you are the ones playing, not the fans."
"Yes, come on, let's see who is ruthless!"
Anthony shouted loudly, this is his territory, Melon is full of confidence!
Before the game started, the smell of gunpowder had already spread.
Various media once again praised Chen Yan.
The influence of the playoffs is far greater than that of the regular season. There are only 16 teams participating in the playoffs, and the media's focus on each playoff game is much higher than that of the regular season.
