Chapter 497 497. Take a while! Enter the Western Conference Finals! (8800 words)(2/3)

Randolph responded: "The warden said watching the live broadcast here is more enjoyable."

"What does it feel like?"

"How do I know what it feels like? Why don't you just ask your boss?"

"?" Kwame Brown was confused, why did Mr. Butcher get angry again?

Randolph ignored this heartless person. He was very nervous now. He looked at Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu, who was eating fried potatoes, could also see that he was nervous.

Today, the official will announce the three best lineups!

Soon, the live broadcast started.

After an incompetent start, Stu Jackson, one of the NBA vice presidents, began to announce the All-NBA lineup, starting with the rookie lineup.

Rookie First Team: Ben Gordon and Luol Deng of the Bulls, Howard of the Magic, Andre Iguodala of the 76ers, Okafor of the Bobcats.

Rookie second team: Childress and Josh Smith of the Hawks, Al Jefferson of the Celtics, Nenad Kostic of the Nets, Jameer Nelson of the Magic.

Randolph walked next to Liu Xiu and said: "The best rookie lineup looks much better than the best rookie of the month every month!"

"Yes, this year's rookies only look at the Eastern Conference, which is actually quite good. Among this year's Western Conference rookies, Anderson may be the only one who has the potential to become a top rebounder and top defensive player."

Varejao, who was joining in the fun next to him, was immediately shocked when he heard the warden's words - it turns out the warden thinks so highly of me!

After hearing this, Randolph looked at the All-Rookie Team list again and said in surprise: "Not one of the top ten rookies this year is from the Western Conference!"

After hearing this, other people also looked at it, and sure enough, it was not there! So everyone started to discuss this.

Is this matter important? Of course it's not important, but just sitting together watching football and chatting, that's it.

Randolph discovered that this year's top ten rookies were all on Eastern Conference teams and felt that Bel was proud of him.

Next, there is the best defensive team.

Second defense: Kidd, Wade, Kirilenko, Garnett, Ratliff, Camby, Camby and Ratliff are tied.

First defense: Larry Hughes, Bowen, Artest, Duncan, Ben Wallace.

This first defense made the little flying squirrel say, "Every time Jordan comes, he will run away."

The current All-Defensive Team is selected by the coaches, and the value of the award was changed more than a decade later. The reform made the media vote much higher.

But there is still something that makes the Trail Blazers players complain - Camby was actually selected for the second defense.

Camby's strength is nothing to say, but he is obsessed with statistics. He seems to be very strong in C, with a lot of rebounds, blocks, and steals. He does have top-level frame protection ability, but the actual defensive effect cannot be said to be good.

Trail Blazers players have personally played against each other in the playoffs and feel that Kenyon Martin plus Nene or Byron Russell has a better defensive effect than Kenyon Martin plus Camby.

Finally, here comes the grand prize - Best Team!

Third team: Wade, Ray Allen, Marion, Randolph, Artest, Ben Wallace, with Artest and Marion tied for the vote.

Stu Jackson read the names one position after another. When he read "Zach Randolph from the Portland Trail Blazers," Randolph let out a long breath, and then laughed so loudly.

Liu Xiu, who was still nervous, said: "You are really hopeless. You will be satisfied with just three battles?"

Randolph's eyebrows twitched, his mind was spinning quickly, and he responded: "It would be good to be on the best team. I'm not the scoring leader. Being on the best team is already very prestigious. Warden, what do you think?

Wouldn't it be embarrassing if the scoring champion didn't make the first team?"

"I understand, I will convey your words to O'Neal, Iverson, and McGrady."

"...Mom, mess with Vaco!"

Randolph suddenly remembered that the three brothers had all had the experience of winning the scoring title but not all at once.

The little butcher, defeated easily! Liu Xiu watched the TV screen showing the game highlights of the players from the third team, and his heart was filled with worry.

If the next lineup doesn't see that man's name, or if he sees his own name, it will be very painful in either case.

Without giving him too much time to worry, the highlights of the third-team players were played, and Stu Jackson began to announce the second-team roster.

The center position was announced first. When he heard the word "fatal", Liu Xiu applauded gently.

During the voting two days ago, news came out that Xiaobawang was not placed at the center position in the voting for the best team.

There are always some weird operations in the league at this time of year. For example, if a player who is highly praised by the league is more likely to be selected as an All-Star if he is at the forward position, then he will be a forward in the All-Star voting, but if he is at the center position, it is easier for him to be selected.

If he is selected into the All-NBA Team, then he will be the center in the All-NBA Team voting. Even the same player can be a candidate for two different positions in the All-NBA Team and the All-Defensive Team in front-foot and back-foot voting.

There were rumors before that he was a forward as the dominant player in the All-Star voting, but he would be moved to the center position in the All-NBA voting, making it easier to compete for the second team.

When the news of the voting came out two days ago, Liu Xiu didn't really believe it, but Bill Duffy told him that it was very possible.

Because Yao Ming is not the only spokesperson for Chinese basketball, but in the stage of developing the Chinese market, the NBA needs a Chinese player representative with a great and upright image in the Chinese market.

Liu Xiu didn't understand what Bill Duffy said at the time, but later he realized that he was scolding him!

I must cure this agent if I have the chance. I don’t know who I learned from, and his mouth has become poisonous.

Immediately after the names of other second-team players were read out by Stu Jackson, the restaurant was boiling!

Liu Xiu was not selected for the second team!

The All-NBA second team list, guards: Iverson, Kidd, McGrady, forwards: Garnett, James, Amar'e Stoudemire, center: Yao Ming, among which Kidd and McGrady have the same vote.

James and the Bully had the same vote.

This time it was Liu Xiu's turn to stand up! Erlang's legs were raised unconsciously.

Liu Xiu high-fived his teammates and boasted a few words, looking very calm and not caring about fame and fortune.

Looking at the second and third team rosters, Liu Xiu thought of one word - let a hundred flowers bloom!

For every best-team player, Liu Xiu can clearly picture the player's playing style, personality and other characteristics in his mind.

There are also players such as Kobe Bryant, Carter, Arenas, Billups, Reid, Peja, Jermaine O'Neal, etc. who all have their own characteristics.

Soon, the highlights of the second team players finished playing and it was the first team's turn.

There was no surprise of not being selected for the best team. Both Iverson and Kidd were in the second team. When he saw the names of these two people appearing in the second team, he knew that he was safe!

Stu Jackson read out this year's first-team roster: Nash, Liu Xiu, Nowitzki, Duncan, O'Neal.

Liu Xiu's system prompt came in response.

"Congratulations to the host for being selected to the NBA 2004-2005 regular season All-NBA first team, and will be rewarded with 50,000 healing points.

The remaining healing value is 189972."

Liu Xiu could no longer hold back, jumped up, high-fived and hugged his teammates in celebration.

In excitement, Liu Xiu thought of something!

There's new trash talk when playing against Kobe - you didn't make the All-NBA team in your prime!





"I think Kwame deserves to be on the best defensive team. We get along day and night, and I see his efforts and progress. He is the most solid support in the game. It is incredible that he was not selected for the best defensive team."

"Do you think Ratliff and Camby are not as good defensively as Brown?"

"Didn't I make it obvious enough?"

"..."

This was an interview that could become a hot topic, a very effective interview, but the reporter still suffered a lot.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Xiu accepted an exclusive interview with ESPN Sports. The content of the interview was naturally related to the newly released best lineup.

Liu Xiu didn't talk much about his selection for the first team, and kept steering the topic in the direction of Quarandorf and complaining about Kwame Brown.

Without spending a penny or using any brains, you can better maintain the relationship within the team. Liu Xiu is very willing to do this kind of thing.

And he was telling the truth, that's how he felt.

Reporters love and hate Liu Xiu. They dare to say anything, but they don't say anything when they don't want to say it.

In the evening, the battle report came from the Eastern Conference. With Iverson soaring 37 points and 15 assists to hold off the game, Korver scoring three three-pointers and a buzzer beater at the last moment, the 76ers played a game at the last moment.

The wave went 9-0 and defeated the Pistons 95-94, bringing the score to 1-2.

Liu Xiu feels that Iverson is even better in the playoffs than in the regular season!

Weber made Liu Xiu feel embarrassed.

The Kings' team doctor didn't lie either. Webber has really recovered from his injury. Webber played 78 games this season, the highest attendance rate in his career.

However, the avalanche of athletic ability caused by injuries cannot be recovered after the injury is healed.

Not everyone is called Duncan. After Webber's athletic ability declined, his playing style that relied heavily on physical conditions saw his efficiency drop significantly.

The data was not bad. In the regular season, he averaged 19.5 points, 9.4 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game, but his shooting percentage was only 43%. In the playoffs, he averaged 17 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists per game, and his shooting percentage was 39%... Injuries are worse than tigers.

At 7:40 pm, players from the Mavericks and Trail Blazers entered the Rose Garden Arena one after another, and Game 5 of the series between the two teams was about to begin.

The Rose Garden Arena is extremely noisy tonight!

The fans booed the Mavericks more heartbreakingly than in G1 and G2, and cheered the Trail Blazers players even more fervently.

The warden said that he was considering his opponents for the next round. The fans who came to the scene did not feel inappropriate, but felt extremely excited.

The warden in their minds must be so overbearing!

As fans, they do their best to do what they should do - boo their opponents and cheer for their own players.

There was no communication between the two teams before the game, and they each took the time to prepare for the game.

Liu Xiu felt like he was getting excited. He liked this kind of pressured competition. They must go all out. They could be arrogant, but they couldn't be careless. If they really lost, they might be overpowered by the opponent.

He looked across the way, knowing that the Mavericks must be fighting with their backs against the odds.

If you lose and are eliminated and go home, you must give it a try.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the referee blew the whistle to start the game. Kwame Brown beat Ratliff to win the jump ball. The game started, and the Trail Blazers attacked first!

After pushing the ball backwards, Kwame Brown yelled "I am ADT!" and rushed towards the opposite side.

Trail Blazers starting lineup: Payton, Liu Xiu, Outlaw, Randolph, Kwame Brown.
