There is no way, who made the East a little stronger this season?

In the past few seasons, the league pattern has highlighted a trend of strong west and weak east.

But this season is different. The teams in the West that are truly competitive in the playoff level are the Warriors, Jazz, Rockets, Supersonics, Lakers and Trail Blazers.

The rest were more or less a bit bad. The Suns, who were seventh, found that they still had a chance to make the playoffs halfway through reconstruction, so they simply exchanged Kidd for a deal.

The eighth Clippers don’t have so many ideas. They go with the flow all the way in the regular season, win with the flow and lose with the flow. At the end of the season, I saw that I am the eighth place in the West?

The East is very intense. Except for the eight teams that entered the playoffs, the Cavaliers, the Ninth Cavaliers and the Tenth Pacers, they have been fighting for a playoff spot.

Even counting further forward, the Nets wanted to enter the playoffs at the beginning, but helplessly, John Calipari did not realize that he was halfway through:

A madman is not enough, the Nets' foundation is still too bad.

Now, in the Eastern Conference Finals, the Bulls and the Knicks have reached a tiebreak, which is the same.

The strength gap between the Bulls and the Knicks is actually not big. On one side, the outside advantage is huge, and on the other side, the inside advantage is huge.

Anyway, both sides have the only way to win.

In the end, in the tiebreak battle, the Bulls won a little.

In this way, for the second consecutive year, the finals were staged with a 1 vs23 battle.

It is said to be a big battle, but in fact, the gap between this year's Warriors and this year's Bulls is even bigger.

One Tyron Hill cannot solve the problem of the Bulls' inside line. No, to be precise, Tyron Hill's help to the Bulls is only-

When they face some insider teams, they can take a heavy hand because insider Tyron Hill can play like Mutombo.

But against a strong inside team like the Warriors, it would be good if the Bulls' inside line can hold on and not collapse.

In the finals G1, the Bulls' inside line collapsed.

First, Lin Xing rushed to a strong frame at the beginning.

This wave of rushing the frame is also related to his top three-pointer at this time.

Danzi dared not let it go too far, for fear that Lin Xing would directly score three points.

As a result, Lin Xing crossed the steps and after speeding up, he could no longer pass the Danzi easily.

Lin Xing first broke up the Bulls' inside defense, and then Mo Ning followed.

One of the Gemini stars has 29 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals, 3 big hats, and the other has 27 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, 5 big hats.

Plus Rodman's 4 points and 16 rebounds...

In short, the Bulls' inside line was blown up badly, and the Warriors also easily won the first game of the finals with their advantage in the penalty area.

Then there was G2, the Bulls made changes and various contractions on the defensive end.

As a result, Lin Xing seized the opportunity directly and burst out on the outside.

In this game, Lin Xing scored 7 three-pointers and scored 46 points alone, leading the team to win another game.

G3, the Bulls returned to their home court and they got some home whistle.

But the Warriors blossomed inside and outside, but they still led by 11 points without any affection.

In this way, the Warriors won 14 consecutive victories in a single season of the playoffs.

It seems that it is only one game before it can sweep the Bulls and win the O'Brien Cup again.

Another thing that David Stern was unhappy with the Warriors was here, and the Warriors won so well.

Sweep every game, played a lot less games, and the league made a lot less money.

To this end, Stern, the Alliance and the Disciplinary Committee have also made a lot of efforts.

But in front of the warriors who swept everything, these efforts were useless at all.

The strength gap between the Warriors and their opponents along the way is too big.

“It can only be said that the Warriors’ team building achievements in recent seasons have been too significant, and they have no shortcoming at all;

Every position is perfect, the bench is deep, the coaching team is also the top in the league, and the star is the top player in the league..."

"The NBA has to think about it. In the next few years, who can stand up and compete with this Warriors."

After three finals, Stern thought of this year's draft again.

He felt it was a pity, but it was a pity that the Bulls didn't have the chance to participate in the lottery draw in the lottery area.

Just before the finals started, the draw ceremony of the 1997 draft conference had ended.

In short, David Stern believed in the Spurs more, so the Spurs drew the No. 1 pick.

But the 76ers are not bad either. They got the second pick. They have the chance to become a supernova in Iverson + Jerry Starkhouse.

In the original history, the Celtics who won the second-last record with their second-to-last record were even more tragic this time.

They didn't even have a terrible sign, so they only got a No. 4 sign.

The Titanhua sign was taken away by the Grizzlies, and then the fourth one was the Celtics.

After that, the order of signing is basically unchanged compared with the original history.

The signing position has not changed, and the draft players still have some changes.

Lin Xing received news that Vince Carter, who was supposed to participate in the draft next year, announced that he would leave the NCAA two years ahead of schedule and participate in the NBA draft.

For Carter, a college degree is indeed very important.

But in his previous life, he worked in the NBA while completing his senior year credits.

The most changes in this life are that he needs to take a junior in the NBA for one year, and the gap seems to be small.

But for the NBA, the changes are huge.

In the original history, even when he ran for election in 1998, Carter was not very popular or influential, and he was finally selected as the fifth in the first round.

But in this life, influenced by Lin Xing's rebounding, Carter has long become a popular rookie.

With Duncan there this season, he was even considered a chance to compete with Duncan for the No. 1 pick.

Although later, he failed.

In short, with Duncan and Carter in this year's draft, this year's draft is considered a rare year for the draft.

...

The sight returned to the finals, G4, and the league still managed to control the game successfully.

The Bulls barely beat the Warriors by 6 points with a free throw of 17-7 in the final quarter, completing the achievement of refusing to sweep.

However, G5, the Warriors returned to home again and won the O'Brien Cup.
