One Guard

The Mavericks' winning streak ends! The San Antonio Spurs won the first game of the Western Conference Finals! "

"The MVP was finally voted out, and GDP broke Yiyang's rule!"

"The Duel of the Silent Man, Kawhi Leonard wins first!"

"Tracy McGrady: Marvel at Yiyang's performance, but we are stronger."

The news pushed on the mobile phone is all about the Spurs defeating the Mavericks. The aging San Antonio Spurs defeated the Mavericks at home, which undoubtedly made Spurs fans extremely comfortable. The Mavericks and Spurs themselves are mortal enemies. The defeat that Yiyang gave the Spurs at Christmas has now been avenged. The most important thing is that Leonard, the future star of the Spurs, played a performance that was not inferior to Yiyang.

From the team to the individual, from the process to the result. The Spurs' victory in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals can be described as perfect. From the first second to the final whistle, the Spurs controlled the game and prevented the Mavericks from turning over.

The Mavericks, who had been killing everyone in the playoffs, finally met a strong opponent, which naturally caused the media to be in an uproar. The Spurs proved to the world that the Dallas Mavericks and their MVP are not invincible.

"The competition in the Western Conference is so fierce. To be honest, no matter who reaches the finals, the Mavericks or the Spurs, they deserve it. But it is a pity that only one of these two excellent teams can get this opportunity. Palm of the hand, back of the hand It’s all meat, but for now, the Dallas Mavericks are in a bad situation.”

The day after the first game of the Western Conference Finals, TNT TV station launched a special program specifically for this purpose. Stars such as Reggie Miller, Charles Barkley, Shaquille O'Neal, Kenny Smith and Chris Webber were all present, making this show's lineup unprecedentedly strong. Throughout the show, they only talked about one topic - the Western Conference Finals!

Watching the show's ratings continue to rise, the management of TNT TV station is probably laughing. The good ratings of this show are not because of the retired stars, but because of the Mavericks and Spurs, and because of Yiyang. It's their popularity that makes this show attract so much attention!

"You said both teams qualified for the Finals? No Charles, I think you must have made a mistake somewhere. Let me give you an idea of ​​who are the guys who play for the Dallas Mavericks. Chris Kaman, 03 The No. 6 rookie of the year, no one in the United States cared about him, so he had no choice but to become a German citizen and play for the German national team. He had only had one playoff experience in his career before that. As the mainstay of the Clippers at the time, he averaged only one playoff game per game. He scored 10 points and 8 rebounds. In the two seasons before joining the Mavericks, he only played a total of 79 games and was extremely prone to injuries. Dirk Nowitzki, he is indeed a legend. But it is a pity that Ben Dirk's season can only be described as mediocre. Age and injuries have caused this 'tank' to lose its power. It's like you let a Tiger tank from World War II enter modern warfare.

It's certainly vulnerable. Shawn Marion was only in elementary school when he entered the league to play. If such an old guy can still get a starting position outside of the Mavericks, I will write my name backwards. Vince Carter, the best dunk player ever. This kind of players all have one thing in common, that is, they can only live by their past glory, and their reputation is far greater than their strength! Carter still averaged 11 points per game, but if it weren't for Yi, God knows if his scoring average would still be in double digits. "

O'Neill took out a manuscript and talked a lot. Weber spread his hands, looking confused.

"And what? What do you want to say, Shaq?"

"Good question, Chris. Next is the important point. Take notes. The Mavericks' lineup is not ranked among the best in the entire league! They can miraculously achieve third place in the Western Conference. They can miraculously rank among the strong. There is only one reason why the Western Conference has reached the conference finals! It is not because they have been unlucky all season, but because they have the second youngest MVP in the league after Rose! One of the top eight teams in the Western Conference Take any one out, and the lineup is stronger than the Mavericks. The Mavericks have relied on this superstar to get to where they are now. If it were placed ten years ago, there would be nothing wrong with this. But times have changed now. A single-core team wants to kill Reaching the Finals or even winning the O'Brien Trophy is no different from a dream! The Dallas Mavericks have reached their ceiling and want to take it to the next level? No, the Mavericks' lineup simply cannot support them in doing so." Become a commentator After the meeting, O'Neal, who was wearing a suit and glasses and looked serious, seemed to have a point.

Even Cuban has to admit that the Mavericks' lineup fell short of expectations this season, and their results exceeded expectations. But no matter how strong Yiyang is, he has a limit. In the first round, Yiyang was able to use his superstar strength to dismantle the Grizzlies, who were seriously "biased". In the second round, also led by a single core, the better performance of the Mavericks' role players also allowed Yiyang to win a big victory against Durant.

But the Spurs, they have neither superstars nor a team. Even the white-haired old man sitting on the sidelines is a big threat. Yiyang was not facing Duncan alone, nor was he Leonard who was as silent as himself. What he needs to face is the threat of the entire Spurs. There is a threat from everyone, from players to coaches, from starters to substitutes. However, the support Yiyang can get from his teammates is very limited.

"I don't agree with you, Shaq. You said the Spurs are so much better than the Mavericks, but what did the Spurs win yesterday? It's not the overall performance you said, but the super-level three-point shot! If A team can shoot up to 50% of the three-pointers in a single game, and they can win regardless of whether the opponent is the Mavericks! Therefore, your point of view is simply untenable, because the Spurs cannot every game They all shot 50% of their three-pointers in the game. Unless, God really wears a Spurs jersey." Barkley and O'Neal were tit-for-tat, making several other superstars become the background.

"You always argue with me, Charles. No matter what I say, you will contradict me."

"That's right Shaq, because every word that comes out of your fat lips is unreliable." Barkley was not to be outdone, his eyes became fierce.

Of course, the ratings of the show are also rising due to the war of words between the two old enemies.

"Stop boasting, Charles, have you forgotten what a donkey's butt tastes like?" O'Neal unleashed a ruthless move that directly stepped on Barkley's life-long pain point.

"It is precisely because the smell of donkey butt impressed me so much that I dare not look down on anyone now, especially those players from China."

Barkley and O'Neal looked at each other, and lightning seemed to have struck their eyes. Reggie Miller, who was sitting between the two of them, stood up wisely. It was better not to get in the middle at this time.

"God, I was almost cooked by the scorching gazes of these two guys! Hey, is it possible that you are both Kryptonians and have radioactive eyes?" Reggie Miller made a joke to ease the strong feeling. The smell of gunpowder.

"Stop talking Reggie, this is a war between me and that ugly guy! Last time, I lost in a bet. Since then, I never dared to bet on the show again. But today, I think I have to fall down from myself Stand up! Do you dare to make a bet with me, Shaq, or do you want the whole world to know that you are a coward?" Barkley raised his eyebrows to provoke O'Neal.

"What do I have to be afraid of? Afraid of someone who has kissed a donkey's butt? What do you want to bet on Charles? I'll satisfy you."

The program's ratings soared to the highest level of the whole year. Barkley and O'Neal made great contributions to the TV station!

"If the Mavericks lose again in tomorrow's game, or fail to produce a double-double, then I will..."

"You're just going to put on a wig, show your big belly, and then give us a Hawaiian hula dance?" Before Barkley could finish, O'Neal set out his own conditions.

"Hahahahaha, there's no way he can do that. God, what a scene that would be!" Everyone in the studio burst into laughter. But Buckley looked serious, thought for a few seconds, and slammed the table.

"I accept your terms, Shaq!"

Suddenly, fans all over the world who were watching this show made a sound of exclamation. Not only did the Mavericks have to win, Yiyang also had to get a double-double. Without either of these two conditions, Barkley would be embarrassed. In the eyes of the fans, Barkley's hula dance is now guaranteed!

"So what are you going to do if the Spurs lose?"

"The Spurs can't lose. GDP has been in the league since I was still playing. Will they lose to a third-year Chinese guard? Don't be kidding Charles. There are countless great names who have fallen at the hands of the Spurs. There is no shortage. This one too!" Compared to Barkley's seriousness, O'Neal looked relaxed. The San Antonio Spurs are a team that has defeated the "OK Combination" twice. Is the current Mavericks stronger than the Lakers in the OK era? But the Spurs are no weaker now than they were then.

"You haven't answered my question yet. What are you going to do if the Spurs lose?" Barkley persisted. At first, he argued with O'Neal just for the effect of the show, but now, the feeling buried deep in his heart The desire to win seemed to make him serious.

"What do you want me to do? Do you want me to take off my suit and commentate on the game here with the Chinese flag on my head?"

"That's it, Shaq."

"What?"

"It's settled, if the Spurs lose in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals, you'll take off your tight suit, wear the Chinese flag naked, and commentate on the entire game in the studio. I I think the TV station will definitely give you a promotion and a salary increase."

Weber, Miller and Smith were all stunned. O'Neal and Barkley must have played too much this time. Hula and vacuum draped Chinese flag. Either of these two images will make people think a lot.

"I know the strength of the Spurs, Charles. You'd better hurry up and find a wig that suits you."

"I also know your strength, Shaq. Your strength is as much as my hair!" Barkley responded without any sign of weakness.

"Ta!" Seeing this, Yiyang turned off the TV. He pushed open the door to Carlisle's office and walked onto the empty basketball court.

"Go to bed, baby, it's getting late." After sending a text message to Vignali, Yiyang took out a basketball from the iron frame and walked onto the court alone.

"Dong, dong, dong..." In the huge training hall, there was only the sound of the basketball hitting the wooden floor...

Does O'Neal look like wearing the Chinese flag? Probably, quite interesting.
