Chapter 182 [Although defeated but still glorious, horror record]

This lore dunk made Carter attract countless fans. No matter how the media praised him, it would not be too much.

In Yang Rui's previous life, Dwyane Wade entered the fans' field of vision with a playoff lore and started a legendary life.Wade is only the first game against the Hornets in the playoffs, and Carter's lore is more valuable.

In addition, Carter won the best rookie in the regular season, and the limelight completely overshadowed the Lakers' Kobe Bryant.Fans recognized him as Jordan's successor and hoped he would be a step closer.

However, Raptors players are reaching their limits both mentally and physically.

In the fifth game, even if Yang Rui carefully arranged the tactics, the Raptors were still suppressed by the opponent at the beginning.

Fast break tactics require physical strength to complete. After playing an overtime game, the Raptors players consumed a lot of physical strength, and they could not make up for it in one day. They could only fight against the Heat.

Kevin - Cato, John - Thomas this series was frozen by Yang Rui.Both of them are strong insiders. Against the Heat's two highly mobile insiders, Pat Riley seized the weaknesses of the two and attacked.

Brad Miller is inexperienced, has poor rebound control in the playoffs, doesn't shoot resolutely, and doesn't help the team much.

In addition to the injured and absent Di Brown, the Raptors mainly have 9 people left in rotation, Bai Bowen is still a pure blue-collar, and there are only three reliable insiders.

Both veterans are tired. Their playing time in these two rounds of playoffs has increased to more than 30 minutes, and their strength is not as good as Mourning and PJ Brown.

The Heat's road to promotion is easier than that of the Raptors. Coupled with Riley's extremely slow defensive style, the Heat only shoot about 70 times in a game, and the players know how to distribute their physical strength.

People are still reminiscing about Carter's wonderful goal, and the Heat won the match point neatly 101 to 84.

The Raptors without the sharp fast break are not the most offensive team.

Returning to the home court in the sixth game, Yang Rui's agency counted in, let McGrady start, arrange for the core players on the outside to make bold shots, and compete with the opponent for talent, and arrange tactics for Cato in the second quarter, let him rely on his height and weight to storm the basket, not effectively.

Cato has a certain scoring ability. He averaged 14.5 minutes per game in the Blazers playoffs last season and scored 6.5 points and 3 rebounds.But this game was too important, he couldn't let go and didn't play at the level of training.

Carter, Tracy McGrady, and Billups feel average from beyond the three-point line, causing the Raptors to be weak on offense.

DiBron was absent, and the Raptors did not have a particularly fast defender to defend Tim Hardaway. By shrinking the defense to the penalty area, Hardaway made three three-pointers.

90 to 103, the Raptors lost at home and stopped in the Eastern Conference finals with a total score of 2 to 4.

David Stern wanted the Raptors to make it to the finals, so they got a little favor in this game, leading 34-20 in free throws.It's a pity that McGrady felt too bad today, and he made 12 of 5 free throws to make people a little speechless.

Throughout the playoffs, McGrady did not perform well at the free throw line, averaging only 8.8 of 5.5 free throws per game, and the shooting percentage was 62.3%.He increased his breakthroughs in the playoffs and increased his lethality, but lost to his touch.

At the press conference, Yang Rui calmly faced the defeat and smiled: "There is nothing to be depressed about, everyone has done a very good job, we have one more win than the Western Trail Blazers. , and he didn't win a championship as soon as he entered the league."

The reporter asked: "Which team do you think will win the championship?"

"Of course the Spurs." Yang Rui doesn't believe that the Heat can win the Spurs, even if the history is different from his previous life.

The Blazers were embarrassing enough this year. With more Pippen in the lineup, they only won one more game than Yang Rui's previous life to avoid being swept away.

The Blazers seem to be strong, but in fact they have similar weaknesses to the Lakers. They lack three-point shooters. The most reliable three-pointer is "Little Flying Squirrel" Damon Stoudamire.

Pippen was a blacksmith on offense, and his playoff performance was disappointing.He shot 41.3 percent from the field and 27.3 percent from 5.5-point range, averaging just 1.5 of [-] [-]-point attempts per game.

When the Spurs entered the playoffs, it was like a hang-up. They averaged 93.2 points per game and only lost 84.1 points. Duncan and Robinson turned the entire restricted area into a no-fly zone.It's impossible to beat the Spurs without a pitcher on the team.

Yang Rui didn't go home immediately, and went to have a late-night snack with Stana Katic.

Eating Singapore's special red bean ice, he received a call from Nina Dobrev.

Nina is probably the happiest person in Toronto in this playoff game. It doesn't matter if she loses.She said excitedly, "Jerry, do you know how many cookies I sold?"

"How many?"

"[-] boxes, I have already broken the record of the Girl Scouts. A radio reporter is going to interview me tomorrow. Can I mention your name, thank you?" Nina was very excited on the other end of the phone.

"sure……"

Hearing this number, Yang Rui was surprised. In eight home games, Nina has been selling biscuits, which has created a terrifying record, which is equivalent to that all fans have bought a box. The original record was only [-].

"Hahaha, I will say a lot of good things about you."

After hanging up the phone, Stana asked curiously, "Women?"

"You've seen that kid selling biscuits on the sidelines. I met me with nosebleeds twice, and the third time I was hit by a doorknob with a big bag on my head. In order to compensate, I suggested to the management to let her sell it at the home court. Cookies."

"Oh." Stana was clearly relieved.

Yang Rui smiled and said, "Don't worry, I can show you my phone number. There are only three women in total, except you and two children. Otherwise, I wouldn't have an affair with Tom."

Stana laughed: "Is he always out of Toronto to avoid scandals?"

"It's for work, and he wants to give us space to be alone. His hard work has been wasted by us. Don't you go back to school today?"

"No, I'm about to take the exam... This semester is very important, don't force me, okay?" Stana said with a blushing face.

"Well then, when you are on vacation, go on vacation with me."

"Hey, when did I promise you to go on vacation?" Stana smiled, "I'm going home."

"Then go to your house for vacation, it's easy."

In any case, Yang Rui will ask Stana to go out to play this summer to further the relationship.It's normal to not be able to fall in love with a child. This is an adult, and it's just too tragic that he can't be intimate all the time.

It's just that Stana is an academic bully with a conservative personality, which is not the same as most American girls.

At the moment of confusion, she would always persuade herself not to be hot-headed, to remain calm, sober and prudent is the most important thing, and stealing the forbidden fruit has to pay a price.Her view of love is to set aside quite a long time to test the other party. She doesn't want to believe that the other party will really be responsible for her. To be safe, she will not eat the forbidden fruit first.

Moreover, she thinks that since shameful things are so tempting, they must be beautiful and enjoyable, and the most beautiful things must be done at the end.She definitely has the patience, every time Yang Rui makes such a request, she will politely refuse, or find an excuse to drag it over.

Yang Rui is going crazy, what is his life?
