Johnson ran to the stands to confirm whether Fisher's move had expired, and finally came back with his head in frustration.

Fisher killed them with the old Curry last year.

The Mavericks lost, losing to the Lakers in F4.

Although the score of 3-4 shows that the strength of the two teams is not much different, and Fisher's final winning goal is of great luck, the Mavericks still lost.

Their road to defending their title came to an abrupt end.

Sun Hao's expression also showed helplessness.

No matter how hard he can do it, he will never run to play the inside.

And he also knows why the Lakers in history have reached the Finals.

Even though there are many internal conflicts, they can defeat most of their opponents by relying on their talent alone.

If it weren't for the Pistons, the Lakers would have won the final title that year.

The game has ended, and fans on the scene encouraged the Mavericks' players with applause and cheers.

The Mavericks members also reached out to respond.

Losing is not the end of the world.

They also lost before last season.

At worst, I just want to win back next season.

And know where to lose, and targeted reinforcement, there is also a great chance of winning back.

Johnson looked very upset.

He was determined to prove himself, but unfortunately he failed in the end.

After seeing it, Sun Hao went over to comfort him a few words.

For a new coach, it is good to be able to take the team to this point.

And after experiencing this failure, Johnson should know that his stubborn personality is not a good thing, and he should also discover some of his tactical shortcomings.

I believe he will make some changes next season.

That's how failure is the mother of success comes from.

"It's frustrating to fail to defend the title, but we'll win back soon, and what can't beat you will eventually make you strong."

At the post-match press conference, Sun Hao made a sound.

No one thinks what he says is arrogant or something, because he has done it before.

Of course, although Sun Hao said so, fans’ complaints in the forum after the game are indispensable.

"Hurry up and get old Nelson back. I'm really tired of Johnson's misplaced singles!"

"Johnson is more suitable to be an assistant coach than a head coach. The Mavericks rely on Sun and Dirk this season!"

"I am a Chinese fan. I think you are right. There is a book called "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in our country. If you compare old Nelson to Zhuge Liang, then Johnson is Ma Su."

"Johnson is too young after all. I don't think he is an incompetent coach, but he is obviously not suitable for the current Mavericks."

"Old Nelson, come back quickly, we are all waiting for you!"

...

It is obvious that the fans' responsibility for losing is all blamed on Johnson.

It was on the second day that a reporter threw these comments to Sun Hao.

"Avery is a very talented coach. He has contributed a lot to the team in the series against the Spurs last year. He has also led us to achieve very good results in the past season. Losing is not the responsibility of one person, it is for everyone in our team."

Sun Hao defended Johnson in front of reporters.

No one is better suited to the Mavericks than Johnson before Old Nelson returns.

What he hoped was the same as before, Johnson could rise up after failure and prove himself again.

Of course, those are all things next season.

At least after losing, the subsequent draft and offseason will become very important.

...

The Mavericks and the Lakers played vigorously in the Western Conference semi-finals.

By the time they finished seven games, the remaining groups of games were already finished.

In the Western Conference, the Timberwolves also had 7 games, defeating the Spurs 4-3 hard to make it close to the Western Conference Finals.

This is also the first time their team has reached the Western Conference Finals.

Garnett, who has been deeply involved in 58 memes in the past two years, has been really proud this season.

In this way, the two sides will be confirmed in the Western Conference Finals, the Lakers VS Timberwolves.

Both sides played seven games in the semi-finals, and fortunately no one would be absent due to injury. This Western Conference Finals will definitely be played with Mars.

In the East, the Pacers struggled to defeat the Nets after a 4-3,7-game battle.

The two teams played extremely fiercely, but the game scene wouldn't be too good.

According to fans, Stern once appeared in the first game of the series opening game, but never appeared again since then.

On the other side, the Pistons beat the Wizards 4-2.

Although Yao Ming has a great advantage in the matchup with Da Ben, Arenas is not Jordan after all, and he has not reached his personal peak yet.

And Anthony, who was in a downturn in the first round, broke his rookie wall in this round.

After 6 games, he averaged 19.6 points per game, with a shooting percentage of 44%.

Such performance made Detroit fans optimistic about the team's prospects again.

So, two teams with a strong gunpowder smell in the regular season met in the Eastern Conference Finals.

On one side is the evolutionary version of the Pacers led by Carlisle, and on the other side is the Piston Six Tigers led by Brown.

In terms of excitement alone, the Eastern Finals may be more eye-catching than the Western Finals.

Before that began, however, the league announced the ownership of the third batch of awards.

Best lineup, and MVP.

Best defensive team: Bale, Kobe, Artest, Garnett, Ben Wallace;

Best defensive second team: Kidd, Bowen, Kirirenko, Duncan, Yao Ming;

The Hundred-Power Head went further. After Bell was selected for the second team last year, he finally entered a while this year.

Yao Ming was selected for the defensive lineup for the first time.

The first team of the best team: Sun Hao, Kobe, Garnett, Duncan, O'Neal;

The second team of the best team: Kidd, McGrady, Peja, O'Neal Jr., Big Ben;

The three best teams: Reed, Kassel, Artest, Nowitzki, Yao Ming;

Compared with last season, the competition for the Best Team can be said to be more intense.

Nowitzki was forced to the third formation by O'Neal Jr.

And from this we can also see that the pattern of the east and the west is changing.

Of course, the most important thing is that Sun Hao was selected into the Best Team for the first time in the fourth year of his career!

For him, this is definitely a big breakthrough in personal honor.

After the best team, the honor that all fans are most concerned about is announced, the regular season MVP.

In the end, Garnett was elected as the regular season MVP for the first time in his career with a vote rate of nearly 35%!

In the past season, he has averaged 24.2 points, 13.9 rebounds, 5 assists, 1.5 steals, 2.2 blocks per game, and only 2.6 turnovers.

And his shooting percentage reached 50.5%, which is an extremely outstanding stat for power forwards.

It is no exaggeration to say that Garnett's performance this year can really be described as perfect.

In addition, the Timberwolves' record this year is the best in the West, so the MVP is worthy of it.

But he won wasn't easy either.

Sun Hao ranked second in MVP, who received more than 28% of the votes.

If the Mavericks had not lost the regular season record and Garnett's perfect performance, this MVP would be his.

In addition, Duncan and O'Neal Jr. both received nearly 15% of the vote.

This can be said to be the most fiercely competitive session in recent years.

While fans were still discussing the results of these awards, the eastern and western division finals had already started.

On the east side, the Pacers and Pistons gave fans a game of "You thought this score was low, but I could actually be lower."

72 to 67, the two teams rebounded 40+, and only one person scored 20 points, Anthony and O'Neal Jr.
