Chapter 223 Sending the wrong text message
On April 24, the Los Angeles Clippers defeated the San Antonio Spurs at home.
The Clippers scored in double digits at home, Ji Guoqiu scored 13 points, 16 rebounds, 7 assists and 4 blocks, Ji Guomiang scored 21 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks, Billups scored 19 points, 7 assists, Artest scored 22 points, 6 rebounds, and Mobri scored 12 points.
Parker of the Spurs was successfully defended by the Clippers in this game. He scored 21 points on 7 of 17 shots, Duncan scored 18 points and 13 rebounds, and Ginobili scored 17 points.
The Los Angeles people were very imposing from the beginning. Although Artest was a little overly excited at the beginning and played five-barrels in a row, the Clippers created the lowest score in a single quarter in the first quarter. However, in their own home court, the Clippers' defense was still excellent enough. They only scored 14 points in the first quarter, but the Spurs did not widen the gap to double digits, which created conditions for their subsequent counterattack.
**Vic said at the post-match press conference: "We have been prepared to lose away long ago. 1:2 is bad, but we have encountered something worse than this. There are seven playoff games, and we will gain the upper hand again if we win one away game."
Dunleavy said after the game: "The Spurs are built around Duncan, everything they do is based on Duncan, which is why they are strong, and Duncan has been at the top for a long time. The Spurs have cornerstones, but the Clippers also have their own aces, Billups and Artest are enough for Parker and Bruce. Bowen is busy, and the twins can bully the less in the interior. We beat the Spurs in the regular season, and we know we can fight against them, and will it help us to beat the Spurs in the regular season? I don't know. But it at least makes us understand that we are one of the strong teams in the West. We have always had confidence in ourselves. It's very important."
Three hours later, the Phoenix Suns vs. New Orleans Hornets also decided.
At the pre-match press conference, a Phoenix reporter asked head coach Mike D'Antoni to say something to those fans who almost gave up their hopes. Unexpectedly, D'Antoni didn't care at all. Although the Suns were behind the Hornets 0-2, D'Antoni still joked confidently: "Even if you let them go, we have 6 million people, and there are still many fans waiting to watch our performance."
But after the joke, D'Antoni began to become serious. He said that he fully realized the seriousness of the situation. However, D'Antoni was not a pessimistic person. He said that although he and the team had already stood on the edge of the cliff, the only thing they had to do next was to try to get back from the dangerous situation. D'Antoni said firmly: "We will defeat the Hornets tonight. This is the common goal of the whole team. I have never doubted winning this series."
D'Antoni is still stubborn, but no matter how tough he says, the cruel reality is there. In the seven-game series, only 13 teams successfully turned the tables behind 0-2. But the Suns don't want to understand these history. Or they don't want these things to affect their mentality.
In the first two games of the two teams, the Suns who played away were both in the lead and were beaten back. Today, at home, they didn't even have a chance to lead, and they were in a passive position of being beaten.
The Phoenixes were full of confidence and thought they could move back to their disadvantage when they returned to their home court. As a result, the weak defense made the Suns passively chase from beginning to end. They were beaten 39:29 by the Hornets in the first quarter, and at most they were 25 points behind!
In the end, the Suns lost to the Hornets with no suspense without any suspense, becoming the first team to fall behind 0:3 this year's playoffs.
Chris Paul scored a game-high 35 points, 18 assists, 5 rebounds and 3 steals, David West scored 27 points and 12 rebounds, Stoyakovic scored 22 points, Chandler scored 11 points and 14 rebounds, and the Hornets beat the Suns with 20+ away games.
In NBA history, a team that has never turned around with a 0:3 backdrop, the Phoenix Suns have really fallen into a desperate situation and can't help but admit it.
Amal Stoudemire scored 30 points and 11 rebounds, Steve Nash scored 16 points and 9 assists, Barbosa scored 20 points, and Shaq O'Neal scored 15 points and 6 rebounds.
On the 24th, the third round of the East and West matches will be over.
Lakers vs. Mavericks — 2:1.
Jazz vs Rockets – 2:1.
Clippers vs. Spurs — 2:1.
Wasp vs Suns – 3:0.
Eastern:
Celtics vs. Hawks—2:1.
Pistons vs 76ers—2:1.
Knights vs. Wizards—2:1.
Magic vs Raptors - 2:1.
Most teams in the league that returned to home have won their home games, and only the tragic Suns were beaten 3:0 by the Hornets. When the twin brothers were talking to Nash, they could clearly hear that Nash was in a bad mood. The Wind Son was blown away by Chris Paul in these three games. His data was also not bad, but it was far from Paul's performance of 30+ in three consecutive games.
News has been revealed in the media that the Suns executives are very dissatisfied with D'Antoni's failure in the playoffs for so many years, especially this year, when even the young Hornets can't handle it. There has been rumors in Phoenix. The moment when the bearded is eliminated by the Hornets is when he is dismissed.
D'Antoni, the former best coach, is about to lose his job, but this is the Suns' business. After the third game, Dunleavy gathered all the coaching staff members again to discuss the tactics of the fourth game.
Old Dunleavy is more self-aware and knows that he is not as good as **Vic than on-the-spot arrangements and tactical arrangements, or even player rotations. But as the saying goes, diligence can make up for the shortcomings. Three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. He can use more careful pre-match arrangements and use his team to be stronger than his opponents to suppress the Spurs.
They did a good job in the last game, and no matter how smart you are, you can't make up for the shortcomings in your own team.
After Old Dunleavy won this game, he thought of more arrangements for the Spurs, such as in the fourth game, where he was preparing to adjust his starting lineup.
Old Cat Mobley played less than twenty minutes in the last game, but scored 12 points, which was quite efficient on the court. It proved that he still had the ability to be the main player of the team.
The Spurs' backcourt combination this year, especially their starting lineup, has a lot of articles to do. Although Bruce Bowen has strong defensive ability, he must deal with Artest, which poses more threatening, so in fact, the Spurs' defense ability at the second position is not good.
Michael Finley is old and his single defense ability has declined very quickly. Mobley happens to be the team's most powerful singles player at present. If Old Cat is put into the starter, I believe **Vic will have a more headache. What Old Dunleavy wants is **Vic!
There is another advantage in sending the old cat Mobri to the starter. It just so happens that James Percy can use his defensive ability to the Spurs' best sixth man, the Argentine Demon Sword Ginobili.
Old Dunleavy didn't know that before the playoffs began, what **Vicci was most worried about was that the Clippers helped the old cat to the starter. Old Dunleavy was still complacent about his wise martial arts at this moment. Unexpectedly, he thought about this after the third game, which was quite late.
On April 25, the fourth game of the first round of the East and West Rivers began!
In the Western Conference, the Lakers vs. Mavericks and Jazz vs. Rockets, these four teams will compete in their fourth game in the first round.
"Huh... I'm scared!" Ji Guochou sat in front of the TV. The fourth game between the Lakers and the Mavericks was about to begin, but Ji Guomo was seeing his brother trembling with his hands. He held his Nokia phone with his face frightened!
"What's wrong? Did Sister Feng call you? I heard that he came to the United States to look for Obama."
"You're talking nonsense. Feng Jie hasn't made her debut yet and Obama hasn't come on stage yet, but the troubles are no worse than this."
"What's more terrifying than this? Tell me out and let me see it."
Ji Guoqiu threw his Nokia phone over, which scared Ji Guomo!
"It's so bad. I sent the text message to Emma Roberts to Kristen's phone!"
Ji Guomo said that, he almost vomited out the Red Bull he had just drunk again.
"So, it's a problem for mobile phones nowadays without dual-stop. Don't look at me. The situation is so serious, I can't do anything about it. Please beg for your own blessing!"
Ji Guochou was no longer in the mood to watch the game, and he was so anxious that he was so anxious...
"Don't be sloppy, calm down first, what message did you send her and what content is?"
As soon as Ji Guomeng finished asking, the giant panda's cell phone rang...
"It's over. It's really Christine. She's called back so soon. What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?"
After Ji Guochou saw the call number, he almost threw his phone out again...
"Actually, it's nothing. I think you can take this opportunity to dump the Twilight Girl directly."
"Don't dump you!"
Ji Guochou saw that the ringtone of his cell phone rang for almost a minute and had not stopped, so he could only answer it helplessly. The speed of Panda brother's brain turning had reached the highest level of his career. Even the key math problem he had not answered in the college entrance examination in his previous life was answered by him at this moment.
"Hey, my dear..."
"I just received the text message from you. Did you send it wrong?"
Ji Guomomoto heard Christine's words telepathically and almost spit out Red Bull again, and said to himself: "Boss, you are so ugly. The girl has made an excuse for you automatically. You are simply a love saint. Please allow me to kneel down and talk to you."
"SMS, what kind of text message... Shuang, did you move my phone just now?" Ji Guoqiu heard Christine's words and science shouted at his brother.
Ji Guomo was once again promiscuous when he heard this: "Boss, you are so smart. Could it be that our IQ was all divided when we split up the family?"
Kristen's voice was relieved from her phone: "No wonder you didn't watch the game with me. It turned out that you wanted to accompany your brother to say hello to Fox, let's have a meal together tomorrow."
Ji Guochou was about to comfort him, but the sound of shredded radish suddenly came from outside the door...
"Giant Panda, the game is about to begin. I brought a piece of cake and it was freshly baked."
Ji Guochou quickly covered the microphone with his hands, and then gave Ji Guomomiya a wink.
Ji Guomeng felt very upset at this time and cursed in his heart: "Bastard, he looks the same, why are the treatment so different?"
Ji Guochou cursed in his heart: "Don't talk nonsense, go and hold on there quickly, don't let her in!"
Ji Guomomi had no choice but to stand up and walk to the door, and use his sarcasm to Emma Roberts. He made the little radish burst into anger in just a few words!
After a minute, when Ji Guomeng walked back to the living room, Emma Roberts had just made the cake on his face.
Ji Guochou glanced at him. At this time, Brother Panda happened to finish the call with Christine. He seemed to have not seen the cake on his younger brother's face. He put the phone in his pocket and let out a breath. Then he seemed to remember something. He walked to the oven and picked up the cake he had just copied, took another bucket of juice, ignored his younger brother again, hummed a tune and walked towards Emma Roberts' home.
"Bastard, even if you don't comfort me, I have a handsome face full of cakes to help you with the aftermath, at least half of it will be left for me!"
"You're already covered in your face, what other cake you want? Eat yourself!"
Soon, Ji Guomo was telepathically seeing two dogs and women flirting next door, and suddenly felt that it was too bad to go out for a performance today, and no one even accompanied him to watch a competition.
The Lakers and Mavericks, Rockets and Jazz played their fourth game in the first round respectively.
After the Mavericks scored a game at home in the first home court, Dallas people's enthusiasm rebounded and the start of today was relatively smooth.
However, the Mavericks were in trouble in the second quarter and the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.
After the start of the second quarter, the Mavericks only made two goals in 5 minutes and 12 seconds. The Lakers scored a 15:4 wave under Gasol's leadership.
In the second half, Terry and Nowitzki stepped forward, and the two hit frequently and scored a 12:0 wave. Then the Lakers seemed to be stunned and were already 10 points behind halfway through the third quarter.
Kobe was finally angry, and Pan strengthened his attack. With 4 minutes and 32 seconds left in the quarter, he made three-pointers in a row; then forced a breakthrough and caused a foul, making two free throws; Kobe then completed the aerial relay with Gasol twice, leading the Lakers to a 14-0 wave, and overturned the score again.
The Lakers were affected by the atmosphere at home in Dallas in the last game, but today, led by Kobe, who suddenly broke out in the second half, the Lakers completed a major reversal.
Kobe Bryant scored only 2 points in the first half, but he started to show off his power in the second half, scoring 27 points, 9 assists and 5 rebounds in the whole game, Gasol scored 19 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks, Radmanovic and Vujasic each scored 10 points and 5 rebounds, Odom scored 8 points and 8 rebounds, Ariza scored 10 points and 6 rebounds, and Bynum scored 8 points and 8 rebounds.
The Mavericks lost control of the situation at the last moment, and Jason Kidd was even expelled from the fourth quarter for a malicious foul.
Chapter completed!
