In G6, Duncan made 14 of 27 shots and 5 of 9 free throws. He scored 33 points, 15 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal, 1 block, 2 turnovers and 3 fouls.
And Li Ba scored 6 points, 7 rebounds, 6 blocks and 3 steals in the fourth quarter. In 48 minutes, he made 3 of 3 shots and 2 of 3 free throws. He scored 8 points, 28 rebounds, 2 assists, 8 blocks, 5 steals, 1 turnover and 2 Foul data.
Throughout the series, he averaged 5.8 shots in 44 minutes per game, plus free throws, averaging 12.3 points, 22.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 4.5 steals, 6.3 blocks, 1.7 turnovers and 2.3 fouls.
"Fuck, you kid actually averaged 20+10 in the playoffs?" On the Suns bench, Dayao almost bit his tongue with Li Ba's data.
"If the uncle hadn't been cheated by Duncan in the fourth game, the statistics would have been more beautiful." Li Ba said proudly.
"Duncan is also great, 25.8+11+5.6, I think he lost in rebounds, almost 5 less than last year's average per game." Dayao said.
"This is the defense that I value the most. Of course, I have to take advantage of it." Li Ba said.
At this time, the reporters gathered around and interviewed on the spot.
Zhang Lili asked: "Hammer, what do you think of Duncan?"
Li Ba thought for a while, and then said in Mandarin: "Ordinary in one hand, great in the other? Maybe he can't be called great now, but I think he will be worthy of the word in the future."
"Hey, Hammer, you are discriminating against English." Immediately some media protested.
"Okay, let me say it again." Li Ba had no choice but to say it again.
"Ordinary in one hand, great in the other?"
The media felt the meaning of this sentence and felt very vivid. Duncan is a player of this style.
"Hammer, do you think you are qualified to judge Tim?" A reporter from the San Antonio Sports News asked.
"Eligibility? Hehe!"
Li Ba sneered, stared at the man and said, "I am qualified to judge Tim Duncan from the scene where he made a suicidal counterpoint to me. I think so, what do you think?"
The reporter faltered, shrugged and said nothing.
He has nothing to say, what else can he say if he can force Duncan into a matchup that way?
"Hammer, congratulations on entering the second round. Then facing the Lakers, are you confident of reaching the Western Conference Finals?" Barkley smiled playfully.
"The Lakers are now waiting for work. They have a huge advantage in physical fitness. It is very difficult for us to enter the Western Conference Finals. But we will not give up. We must experience more cruel games before we really have the strength of the championship. Just as the Spurs put us We are confident that we will drag the Lakers to G7." Li Ba said seriously.
"Will you take care of Shaq's paint area?" Barkley said with a grin.
"As long as I want."
Li Ba opened his mouth, and directly blew the cowhide to the sky, and he didn't pay taxes anyway.
"Ouch, Hammer, let's take it easy!" Zhang Lili reminded quickly.
"Don't be afraid. Teacher Zhang, I can lose anything, but I can't lose with my mouth." Li Ba said indifferently.
"..." Zhang Lili was speechless.
"Damn it, the No. 68 pest is bragging, I'll smash him on both offense and defense!"
Los Angeles, the Lakers headquarters, a conference room, O'Neill roared with wide eyes.
"This rookie is really a big pest, we should find a way to eliminate him, he is too much trouble in the paint area!"
Payton next to him was both angry and helpless.
Regarding his ring, Li Ba's words made him extremely annoyed and worried.
To be honest, he has some regrets. If he joins the Suns with Malone this season, the ring will be much more stable than the Lakers.
He has studied the Suns. There is a lack of Malone at the 4th position and a point guard with strong defensive capabilities at the 1st position. If the two of them are in the Suns, the Suns will definitely be a perfect team, both offensive and defensive. If he can't fulfill his wish this season, he wants to try the Suns next season.
"Shaq, no kidding, I hope you blast him on the offensive end, contain his defense, don't let him participate in help defense too much, let alone let him dominate our paint area, that should be your territory."
Phil Jackson said.
"Then I have to be able to get the ball."
O'Neill looked at the sky with both eyes, and said calmly.
Jackson heard the words and glanced at Kobe, who spit out a sentence: "I'm not a point guard."
These words almost made O'Neal jump up. He really wanted to ask, you are not a point guard, so why is the ball always in your hands?
"I think the hammer should be traded here, what do you do?" He muttered.
Kobe was a little stunned. He stood up and looked at the boss Buss. He said straightly with a straight face: "If that rookie comes to the Lakers, I will leave."
Xie Te, he wanted to scold someone. After being a younger brother for so many years, it was hard for Shaq to get old, so he had a chance to take the position. Now he wants to get a hammer. Is this because he wants his younger brother to retire? He didn't believe that Hammer would treat him as his younger brother when he came, and he definitely wouldn't believe that it was a pest ten times more troublesome than Shaq.
"Okay, Kobe, Shaq was just joking, no one said he was going to be traded!" Phil Jackson said with a bit of a head.
Behind the boss old Buss and general manager Kupchak some look at each other.
They were still thinking about trading the hammer, and they never gave up on this idea, because the hammer who is good at defending and Kobe who is good at attacking are too good together, just like the most solid shield and the sharpest spear, Kobe and O'Neal's battle for the ball It will not appear between the Hammers and Kobe at all.
But looking at Kobe's reaction now, it's too difficult, and it's all the fault of the "boss". Isn't dual-core not enough?
However, if Kobe and Hammer choose one of the two, of course Kobe should be chosen. This is for sure. After all, Hammer is not American, but yellow-skinned, and even Chinese. The social status of the Chinese here is really low.
If it weren't for this disadvantage, to be honest, the Hammers led the team to the playoffs with an absolute team core in their rookie season, and eliminated the Spurs to enter the second round. This year's best rookie may not be so suspenseful.
At the moment in China, Li Ba led his team to eliminate the Spurs and enter the second round, and the major media began to stir up a lot of hype.
CCTV was no exception, once again directly on the news at 7:00 p.m.
The next day, May 2, the second round of the Western Conference between the Timberwolves and the Kings started.
The series between the Suns and the Lakers will start on May 3, giving the Suns two days to rest.
This morning, the league announced a series of regular-season honors.
Sixth Man of the Year, won by Antawn Jamison of the Mavericks.
Most Improved Player, won by Zach Randolph of the Blazers.
The best coach award, Frank had been eyeing this award, but it was not given to him, it was given to Hubie Brown.
This season, Hubie Brown led the Grizzlies to a 61% winning percentage in the regular season, ranking only after the Suns in the regular season.
"We have a winning percentage of 60.975%. What's the difference between this and 61%? Don't they even understand rounding?"
During the phone call to Li Ba, Frank complained in a dissatisfied tone.
"It doesn't matter, Frank, next season we will try to achieve a 70% winning percentage, and try to give you the best coach." Li Ba joked.
The last thing announced was the most important honor of the regular season, and it is also one of the symbolic honors for a superstar to become a superstar, the most valuable player of the regular season.
The winner of the MVP in the 0304 season was the Timberwolves leader and wolf king Kevin Garnett, who led the team to the league's first record.
After receiving this rare honor, Garnett is said to have shed tears.
This is also the first time he has won this honor in his career, and of course it will be his last time including the future.
