Chapter 349 Who will fight in the next round?

Relatively speaking.

The Eastern Conference is tighter than the Western Conference series, and it feels more evenly matched.

And after talking about the situation in the east and west, it is natural to talk about the current situation of the Rockets.

Since they swept the Lakers, except for some trouble with the team award, they had a good day that day.

to today.

That was the last day of April, before their opponents showed up, Qin Tao and the others naturally continued to rest.

But just like during the game before, the whole team responded not to go to nightclubs or go out. During the break, everyone basically stayed at home honestly, or went to the arena to train in order to maintain their state.

Different from others, Qin Tao is very happy now, and stayed in the villa to celebrate with Zarya and his daughter.

"But to be honest!" Zarya stopped her happy smile and said more or less seriously: "If the Rockets, under your leadership, can not only break through the second round, but also reach the semi-finals, not to mention the final Who will be in the Western Conference Finals, just such a record will bring you unimaginable value!"

The same is true of Christine Laidlow on the side. She nodded and said: "I agree. Besides, the initiative is completely in our hands now, and the Rockets dare not make any exaggerated articles on the issue of trading."

The smile on Qin Tao's face subsided a little, and he knew better than these two about this issue.

After all, as far as the current situation of the Rockets and his role in the team are concerned, no team will ignore them.

At least anyone with a discerning eye knows that without Qin Tao, the Rockets really don't know if they can break through the first round.

However, Qin Tao doesn't want to get too entangled in the issue of business and his own transfer.

Because now he needs to focus all his energy on the playoffs, instead of being complacent and thinking about his future now.

After pondering for a while, Qin Tao said: "Regarding this matter, I don't think it's time to discuss it yet. I need to focus on the court, not on places that I can't touch yet."

Zarya and Laidlow don't know this, but one of them is a manager for the first time, and the other cares about it. Naturally, they don't want their men to miss the opportunity to manage or even show their best selves.

But think about it. With what Qin Tao is showing now, even if he misses these off-court factors, he will definitely attract a large number of teams in the summer. Why can't he find the team he likes?

Moreover.

Don't look at this thing as a bit arrogant, but if you think about what they are holding the Rockets, then naturally this problem does not exist.

So the next "meeting meeting" gradually developed into a lively chat.

But what they are doing naturally won't be out of their profession for too long. With Ledlow's curious question, who Qin Tao hopes their opponent will be in the second round, this topic has suddenly entered into a slightly professional analysis.

"As far as the Clippers and the Nuggets are two teams, if I were to choose, I would choose the Clippers instead of the Nuggets. After all, their lineup is poor, and we also beat them 2:1 in the regular season."

Zarya spoke her mind without thinking.

Laidlow thought about it for a while, and seemed to combine the things discussed by his colleagues at the time, and finally said solemnly: "If I had to choose, I think it is more valuable to go to the Nuggets, although doing so will make the Rockets exist. some risk."

Zarya was shocked at the time: "Honey? Aren't you joking?"

Qin Tao agreed very much, but still said something different.

"As for these two teams, I still prefer the Nuggets!"

"Because after we played against them separately, I think the Nuggets are more resilient and their style of play is more suitable for winning."

His strong support made Zarya immediately ask: "But if this is the case, shouldn't the Clippers headed by Chris Paul be stronger? At least what effect and power will the superstar have? Those who cannot be ignored, such as you!"

Qin Tao smiled awkwardly, and said somewhat embarrassedly: "Although I admit this, if you seriously analyze the Clippers' style of play, you will find a very interesting thing."

As he spoke, he blinked, and found out the only secret from the child, his indescribable pride.

What a ghost.

Zarya and Laidlow immediately rolled their eyes: "Don't tell us, what you found is that they rely too much on Chris and Blake's tactics?"

Qin Tao was stunned, he had no idea that the two of them were so smart.

joke.

In this case, as long as you watch the game a little more, everyone knows it, okay?

What's more, their performance in the previous few games of this series has been directly magnified countless times, okay?

The two of them simply stated the result directly, without mocking him, just smiled meaningfully at him, touched the wine glass in their hands, and drank each other contentedly.

This made Qin Tao lose his face a little, but the fact is like this, who told him not to pay attention to the situation in the east and west after rest.

Fine.

Qin Tao's temper has stabilized a lot now, and he directly stated his reasons without saying anything else.

"If the Clippers become our opponent in the end, to be honest," Qin Tao said with a very calm expression: "I will lock Blake Griffin, and Patrick Beverly will be in charge of Chris Paul on the outside, even if he cannot completely defend live, then we'll let him get the points."

So confident?

Zarya and Laidlow looked at each other in surprise, saying that they don't care about the Clippers, right?

then.

Laidlow couldn't help but seriously said: "Confidence is a good thing, but don't forget that the Clippers have a lot of former All-Stars."

"For example, Chauncey Billups, Caron Butler," Zarya immediately said, "and Matt Barnes, who is very fierce in defense, but you beat him enough, and is known as the strongest player in the last ten years." Jamal Crawford, one of the super sixth men, and even Lamar Odom who followed Kobe to create brilliant, so."

Qin Tao did not respond immediately, but waited and said seriously: "It is undeniable that these players have played incredible games, but with all due respect, winning is not just about accumulating stars."

After Qin Tao finished speaking, he poured whiskey for them both without explaining, smiled and went to the bathroom.

Zarya and Laidlow looked at each other, feeling a little confused at first, and then their expressions gradually became clear.

Make sense.

Although accumulating stars has gradually shown amazing benefits, everyone knows that if the team cannot sort out the lineup, the final result will be heaven and disaster.

do not forget.

The Lakers and Heat are the most conspicuous portrayal of this season.
