Kidd rested for more than four minutes in the first quarter.
So at the start of the second quarter, Kidd returned to the court, along with Wei Guo.
Kidd dribbles...
Facing Wei Guo's defense, he dribbled with his left hand, changed direction, and squeezed towards the basket while sticking close to Wei Guo!
If it were me...
Wei Guo's mind raced. "How should we attack now?"
This thought only took a moment, and Wei Guo immediately shouted, "Haplin, watch out for Kiddles outside the three-point line."
As expected...
Kidd flicked his wrist and made a behind-the-back bounce pass, trying to get the ball into Kidd's hands.
But Harpring had already moved toward Kiddels, so he easily intercepted the ball.
"I've been seen through again!!!"
Scott was greatly shocked.
When Kidd broke through Wei Guo's defense, Wei Guo actually predicted Kidd's passing choice accurately.
Kidd was dumbfounded. What the hell was going on? Was Wei Guo a tapeworm in his own intestines? How did he know I was going to pass the ball to Kidds beyond the three-point line?
Just now...
If it weren't for Wei Guo's reminder and Harprin's timely follow-up, Kiddles would have easily gotten an open three-point shot opportunity.
Including the first quarter, this has happened three times now, and Kidd's mood can no longer be described as just depressed.
Halprin intercepted the ball and launched a fast break, but he wasn't fast enough, and Kiddell caught up with him. Halprin didn't hesitate and immediately passed the ball to Wei Guo.
Wei Guo dribbles very fast!
Breakthrough...pass...dunk!
33:21!!
The 76ers are now leading by 12 points.
Such a match...
The 76ers played methodically, while the Nets were disorganized and lacked any strategy, so the outcome of the game was basically predetermined.
Wei Guo kept giving Kidd space to shoot, but Kidd was afraid of Wei Guo's defensive range and was frustrated. In addition, his shooting was not consistent, so he could not lead the team to a comeback through his own offense.
......
The second quarter ended.
The third quarter has ended.
"Beep!!!"
The match ended with the referee's whistle.
109:71!!
The 76ers defeated the Nets by 38 points at home, winning Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
Match statistics:
Wei Guo: 19 points, 8 rebounds, 16 assists, 2 steals, 1 block
Allen Iverson: 33 points, 1 rebound, 3 assists, 3 steals, 0 blocks
Kidd: 17 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, 0 steals, 0 blocks
This statistic is unbelievable: Kidd played 37 minutes and only managed one assist.
After the game, Kidd was still depressed until he figured something out, which made him feel a little better.
What did he figure out?
The league has never had a player like Wei Guo before, especially in this year's playoffs. In the first round against the Pacers, Wei Guo targeted Jermaine O'Neal; in the second round against the Celtics, Wei Guo targeted Pierce; and now he's targeting him again.
This is something he has to go through...
Who told him to be the Nets' star player? Wei Guo was targeting the star player.
Actually, Kidd misunderstood Wei Guo. Wei Guo was targeting him only because his stats in the previous game made Wei Guo feel too uncomfortable. If Kidd had known that Wei Guo had obsessive-compulsive disorder, he would have scored an extra point and an extra assist to make a triple-double of 10+10+10 to make Wei Guo feel better.
......
Even someone who doesn't understand football can tell.
The Nets have lost all hope of winning, and returning to their home court won't help either.
Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals:
97:81!!
The 76ers narrowly defeated the Nets by 16 points.
Wei Guo: 16 points, 10 rebounds, 13 assists, 2 steals, 1 block
Iverson: 27 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, 0 blocks
Kidd: 16 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, 0 steals, 1 block
Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals:
119:85!!
The 76ers defeated the Nets by 34 points.
Wei Guo: 17 points, 19 rebounds, 16 assists, 3 steals, 2 blocks
Allen Iverson: 30 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, 0 blocks
Kidd: 29 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists, 0 steals, 0 blocks
In this fourth game, Wei Guo recorded a massive triple-double of 15 points, 15 rebounds, and 15 assists, a feat achieved by very few players in the league.
........
The Lakers and Kings are still locked in a fierce battle.
The score is currently tied at 2-2, and at least two more matches are needed to determine a winner.
When interviewed by a reporter, Wei Guo was asked which team he was most looking forward to facing in the finals.
Wei Guo's answer was very straightforward: Lakers!
Although this is Wei Guo's first year with the NBA, he also knows that the team lost to the Lakers in the Finals last season, and this year is the 76ers' revenge journey. Wei Guo is looking forward to helping the team defeat the Lakers and win the championship.
and...
Wei Guo wants to defeat O'Neal.
Although he limited Kidd's defense in the Eastern Conference Finals, and even averaged a triple-double of 18 points, 11 rebounds and 14 assists, Wei Guo always felt that he should be a center.
Only by battling O'Neal in the paint can you get your adrenaline pumping.
......
After hearing that the Lakers were the team that the Kings were most looking forward to in the Finals, the Kings took the pivotal Game 5 in one fell swoop.
2:3!!!
The situation has already turned against the Lakers.
Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals will be played at the Lakers' home court. If the Lakers lose the game, they will be eliminated.
Kobe and Shaq went all out, both averaging over 40 minutes per game. Shaq recorded a double-double of 41 points and 17 rebounds, while Kobe was not to be outdone, scoring 30 points and 10 rebounds. Thanks to the performances of Shaq and Kobe, the Lakers dragged the Western Conference Finals into a decisive Game 7.
This match was incredibly fierce.
The Sacramento Kings have a flashy style of play, making their game highly entertaining, and every player possesses excellent passing ability. The Los Angeles Lakers, on the other hand, have a powerful combination of Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal.
In this closely contested game, the Lakers held a two-point lead until the very last moment of regulation time. Kobe Bryant drew a foul and made both free throws to take the lead. The Kings then resorted to fouling tactics, and Shaquille O'Neal made one of two free throws. At this point, the Lakers still had a two-point lead. However, Bibby made both free throws on his last possession to tie the game and force overtime.
O'Neal played brilliantly in overtime, ultimately leading the Lakers to victory and advancing to the NBA Finals.
In this game, both O'Neal and Kobe played for more than 50 minutes, and both scored 30+10, leading their teams to victory.
There were many regrets in the Game 7...
For example, Bibby later recalled that they missed too many shots because the Kings were very strong that year and they were confident of beating the Lakers.
Can...
There aren't many "what ifs" in basketball.
