After the first game of the Eastern Conference semi-finals, the low ratings made Stern's head hurt.

No team scored more than 75 points in the whole game, which Stern did not expect.

He overestimated the bottom line of the Bulls and Pistons!

However, in recent years, even if you look at the entire NBA history, it is the most tightly defended years.

The NBA's score is not actually the lower the older it is.

It was probably from 1997 to 2003 that the NBA's average score per game dropped to a freezing point, with an average of only about 95 points per game.

Before 1997, the average score per game was above 100 points per season.

The decline in scores this year has been particularly significant.

Because the three-second offensive rule was introduced this year, and the illegal defense was cancelled before, the center position was constantly restricted and weakened.

The former center forward squatted into the penalty area, which was a one-on-one abuser, with high efficiency and many points.

Nowadays, the center can only attack from the edge of the penalty area. And if you have some strength, you usually have two or three people around you, and you will be double-teamed as soon as you get the ball.

Gone are the days of super centers.

But while the center was weakened, the offensive efficiency of the outside stars was not improved, which led to the overall average score per game in the game.

Look at the five major points guards, which one is not a iron wall?

Iverson's shooting percentage is more than 30% all year round, and Kobe is in a state of mind O'Neal can beat the board. People often say that if Li Ang was given a Kobe, he would not know whether he would win the championship or not, but the rebounding king would definitely be able to directly monopolize it.

Although Mai scores high, the hit rate depends on his mood. And the hit rate in the second half is usually beyond imagination.

And Li Ang’s three-pointer may not even be able to frame the frame!

Only Carter is slightly better.

Therefore, low scores are actually not just a problem with the Bulls and Pistons, but a common problem in this era.

It’s just that the score between the Bulls and Pistons is quite prominent.

Stern was thinking that if this continued development, the entire league would probably be affected.

In the future, everyone will really learn from the Pistons. If you can’t afford to sign a superstar, you will sign a defensive blue-collar worker. The whole five defensive people will be on the court, and it will be hard for anyone to come.

If the scores in each game are about 70 to 80 in the future, will this business still be done?

Stern must unblock the outside players so that they can score more easily.

Of course, this also needs to look at the results of this season.

Although Stern thinks the probability is not high, if the Pistons really hit the Finals with defensive hits and cause trouble for the Lakers, it will inevitably trigger a defensive wave in the league.

By then, he may have to let the NBA enter the next version.

It was unexpected that Li Ang and Yao Ming were killed. The playoff showdown between the two Chinese actually subtly affected the NBA's rules change.

The day after the match with the Bulls, Li Ang woke up and felt his whole body was very heavy.

It's really exhausted.

That boy, Atai, has made great progress in martial arts over the years.

Moreover, this rule is really suitable for attacking defenders like Atai.

Although it was a hard game, yesterday's game code proved that it is indeed possible to win the game with the Bulls.

In the next few games, such tactical ideas will probably be used all the time.

When Li Ang thought about having to torture each other for several times like this, he was exhausted both physically and mentally.

After getting up, Li Ang turned on the TV and watched yesterday's sports news.

When talking about the game between the Bulls and Pistons, the host probably talked about Li Ang's blood-staining field and finally robbing Yao Ming.

I didn't mention anything else.

It seems that this round of the series is indeed very unpopular by fans and TV stations.

For most of the rest of the time, the host was talking about the battle between the Spurs and the Lakers yesterday.

In comparison, the game between the Lakers and the Spurs is indeed much more exciting from a visual perspective.

Li Ang also watched TV and found out that the Lakers actually lost yesterday.

The person I am not waiting for will not come again?

Although Li Ang knew that the Lakers were defeated by the Spurs in the original history, for some reason, Li Ang still hoped that the Lakers could win and win the finals all the way.

When did the Lakers' consecutive championships start? It started with a 4-1 defeat to the Raptors in 2001!

So now, Li Ang really wants to end the Lakers' three consecutive championships in person!

Doing things requires a beginning and an end.

It starts with me and ends with me.

Moreover, if the only three consecutive championships in the 21st century are beaten to abort the bad boy, it will be satisfying to be the bad boy.

How could such a good thing be cheaper for him Deng Erlangzi?

You have to hold on to the volute. Before the finals, you must keep the Lakers' chastity.

When Li Ang had just woken up, Kobe had finished his morning training.

When O'Neal walked into the training hall, he looked at Kobe who was sweating profusely, and he was stunned: "When did you come?"

Kobe smiled slightly: "Have you ever seen San Antonio at 4 a.m.?"

Kobe thought to himself, Shaq must have been moved by my spirit.

Shaq's heart: What kind of mental stimulation is Kobe being so mentally irrelevant? He just lost one game, it won't be.

After losing the first game, Kobe was very unwilling to accept it.

This year is the most critical year for the Lakers to win three consecutive championships. As long as he wins another championship, he can establish a dynasty.

He didn't even have three championships, why do he have the nerve to be as good as Jordan?

Why do you have the nerve to sit and look at each other?

If winning the championship is about falling in love, then now it is equivalent to a critical moment for each other to test the depth.

If you don’t take the initiative to fight for it at this time, are you waiting for someone to sit on it?

The champion will not be able to sit on it by himself!

Kobe's belief is extremely firm. He is willing to give everything to win!

He must end Li Ang on the stage of the finals!

If Li Ang looks at himself in the future, he will have to call him Brother Snake!

The playoffs were very fast, and everyone had almost no time to breathe, and the second game of the series followed one after another.

Before the second game between the Spurs vs. Lakers in the Western Conference Semi-Finals, Kobe told his teammates that in this life, some things will disappear if they say nothing.

For example, three consecutive championships.

The three consecutive championships are like birds. If you don’t catch them, you won’t know where to fly.

If a man has no bird, is he still a man? So, everyone must keep this bird and this championship in Los Angeles!

After winning three consecutive championships, the brothers are all famous in history!

The Lakers' role players were all screaming, and three consecutive championships were extremely tempting for anyone.

So in this game, Kobe scored 39 points in the whole game, with a shooting percentage of 43.5%. O'Neal also scored a large double-double with 21 points and 16 rebounds as always.

The most important thing is that the Lakers' role player came alive today. Fisher scored 14 points, Horry scored 13 points, and Devin George scored 13 points.

The Lakers were all soldiers, defeating the Spurs 110-95 away, turning the total score of the series into a 1-1 draw.

At the same time, the Pistons also turned the total score of the series into 2-0 at Auburn Hills Palace Stadium.

In the second game, the two teams continued their defense-first game style, with the overall score of 85 to 78.

Yao Ming tried his best to score 24 points and 9 rebounds, but Arte and Francis were lost in the Pistons' strong defense.

Atai made 4 of 13 shots in the game, scoring 13 points with a shooting percentage of 30.8%.

Francis scored only 12 points with 4 of 11 shots, with a shooting percentage of 36.4%.

On the other hand, Li Ang scored 20 points with a shooting percentage of 53.3%. Although the score was not the highest in the game, the victory was due to high efficiency.

In addition, Li Ang also sent 9 assists today, most of which were assisted on Big Ben.

Today, Li Ang repeatedly broke into the penalty area to attract Yao Ming and distributed it to Da Ben on the side. Ben lived up to expectations and scored a large double-double with 17 points and 20 rebounds from 7 of 8 shots.

In addition, he also contributed 1 steal and 3 blocks.

2 to 0, the pistons have the advantage!

But in the third game of the series, Jamal Crawford suddenly pulled up, tilting the victory balance.

Crawford made 6 of 7 shots in an extremely limited time, including 3-pointers for 4 shots, scoring 15 points.
