Chapter 1556 The Dust Has Settled and the Era of Great Change Has Begun.

The Lakers' 70 wins are still fermenting. Los Angeles is destined to become a city that never sleeps tonight. Fans are already wearing Lakers uniforms and taking to the streets. As far away as mainland China, fans are massacred on major networks. The major fan associations in Feng are already in a New Year atmosphere.

Overall, celebration was the theme of the night.

Shortly after the game between the Lakers and the Suns, other duels also ended. This also means that this season's NBA regular season has come to an end, and the position of the Eastern and Western teams and the competition for the playoffs have also ended at the same time. All 16 teams participating in the playoffs this season have been decided.

Yesterday, apart from whether the Lakers could win 70 games, the biggest highlight was the fight for the last playoff spot. The Bulls, who finally took the initiative, performed well. They defeated the Lakers 98-89 on the road and had already locked up the playoffs. The Bobcats secured the final playoff spot this season.

The Raptors became the most depressing team of the day. Although they beat the Knicks, their playoff dreams were shattered by the Bulls' victory, and Bosh could go home to fish again.

The Bulls' opponent is the Cavaliers, the only team in the Eastern Conference with 60 wins. James and O'Neal will join forces to attack the championship.

Then came the Magic and the counterattacking Hawks. The Hawks won the last four rounds and defeated the Celtics by one victory. The Celtics were only ranked 4th, which was shocking. .

The Green Army's opponent is Wade's Heat, while the Hawks will compete with the Bucks, the biggest dark horse of the season. As for the Magic, they drew the Bobcats. It is worth mentioning that this is also the first time the Bobcats have reached the playoffs. Race!

In the Western Conference, compared with the playoff spots determined early, the final ranking among the Western Conference playoff teams was the highlight yesterday. Except for the Lakers and Thunder, which locked the first and eighth places in advance, the other teams Team rankings are subject to change at any time.

In the end, the Mavericks defeated their strong rivals and entered the playoffs with the second place in the Western Conference. Although the Suns lost, they occupied the third position with the advantage of one win. The Nuggets won and the Jazz lost. After that, the two ranked fourth and fifth respectively. They will stage the Northwest Derby in the first round of the playoffs.

Ranked 6th and 7th are the Trail Blazers and Spurs. They will fight against the Suns and Mavericks!

It is worth mentioning that this time the eight teams in the Western Conference that entered the playoffs all achieved "50+" victories, and from 2nd to 8th, their number of wins was only 5 games away. In contrast, in the Eastern Conference, the number of wins was only 5 games. The fifth-ranked Heat only won 47 games, which also illustrates the overall strength of the Western Conference.

The last time this kind of event occurred was in the 2007-2008 season, when the eight playoff teams in the Western Conference also achieved "50+" wins.

The Wild West is terrifying.

In this way, the first round of the playoffs has been decided.

East: Cavaliers-Bulls, Magic-Bobcats, Hawks-Bucks, Celtics-Heat.

West: Lakers-Thunder, Mavericks-Spurs, Suns-Trail Blazers, Nuggets-Jazz.

On April 18, two days later, the NBA playoffs will officially begin!

After the game, the entire Lakers team went to a restaurant in downtown Los Angeles for dinner. Just like what Zen Master said, they will not talk about things related to the game tonight. They need to get enough rest first, and then start again. Get into the game.

The Lakers naturally have the confidence to do this. Their season has been a dream. Although they have not been able to achieve the best record again, their 70 wins are already unprecedented. Their achievements have left all teams in the league behind.

And just when the Lakers are enjoying their long-lost leisure time, the major media around the world will naturally not be idle. The regular season has ended. As the 2009-10 season at the intersection of the new era and the old era, this regular season is worth summarizing. There are really too many places.

For example, there are two 70s. There is no need to say anything more when the Lakers won 70 games this season. There is another team that is also related to 70, and that is the basketball team where another Chinese player, Arab League, that Chinese fans are paying attention to. Nets, this season the Nets have been terrible to the end, but they are amazing in reverse. They only won 12 games in the whole season, with 12 wins and 70 losses, which is exactly symmetrical with the Lakers.

Chinese fans were dumbfounded and said: "Chinese players control the upper and lower limits of the NBA!"

In addition, the Pistons, a long-established team that finally missed the playoffs, the Wizards, who were in decline, and the Rockets, who were pushed to ninth place by new forces and missed the playoffs again...

These teams are worthy of a lot of discussion.

However, for ordinary fans, the changes in the team are far less real and direct than the changes in the stars.

"This season is the beginning of change in the NBA." This is what Su Qun posted in his column at the end of the regular season.

Indeed, there is no doubt that Kobe and James are still one of the biggest darlings at the moment, but the beauty of the NBA is this: if you don't hurry up and enjoy it, you will have to make room for others.

When Wade competed with Kobe James and was already a little tired of aesthetics, Durant, who was called the "Iron Man" a year ago because his long-range shooting accuracy was less than 29%, rushed into the spotlight forcefully. After two consecutive years, Durant After the average points per game surged by 5 points, Durant pushed Anthony, who wanted to win the scoring title, behind him, which also made James' statement that "you can win the scoring title if you want" sound less credible.

"Ji Feng is no longer alone." ESPN said.

Ji Feng was relieved two years ago, but the NBA at that time was still an era dominated by the four major shooting guards and the superstars of the late 1990s. At that time, Ji Feng was just an exception, but now, Ji Feng is no longer alone.

This is the season for new players.

The Thunder were reborn under the leadership of young talents such as Durant and Westbrook. The Trail Blazers remained strong even though most of their main players were injured. Jennings led the Bucks into the playoffs. Evans was 20+5. +5+5 becomes the fifth person in history after Oscar Robertson, Jordan, James and Ji Feng...

At the time when Griffin had just repeated Oden's tragedy, we obviously did not expect that the rookie front could have such gains.

This is also a season where the veteran gradually becomes lonely.

The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. This is an objective law, but it is not the point - the wave in front dies on the beach. Only with this can we really feel refreshed.

This is a season where the stars of the previous generation are lonely together. The scene of Iverson kissing the floor of the 76ers is just a foreshadowing of a deeper tragedy. After his comeback, Tracy McGrady is far worse than before, and he seems to be the sinner affecting the Rockets' GDP.

Garnett bowed to his knees. This season after the injury, the Wolf King finally showed his fatigue, losing control of rebounds and missing three mid-range shots.

Duncan is still feared by everyone, but the Spurs' decisive power is no longer what it used to be. Shifo himself has admitted that "it has begun to go downhill."

When McDyess stated, "I can still play for another year," the end date of the previous era was basically set.

Of course, there are those self-involved people. Arenas pointed his gun at his teammates, but he pulled the trigger on the Wizards' long-term team-building concept.

Walker, who had squandered hundreds of millions of dollars, was forced by hundreds of thousands of dollars to return to the game and work hard. Marbury also left the NBA and went to Ji Feng's hometown to start the road of CBA political commissar.

Too many stars are aging, and at the same time, rookies are constantly rising. Of course, Ji Feng has unknowingly grown into a man who controls the rhythm of this league!
