    The Nuggets were clean and tidy, and basically didn't use much energy. They knocked the Grizzlies to the ground directly. And his opponent in the next round is the winner between the Mavericks and the Rockets, who are fourth in the Western Conference.  After playing two away games first, and then losing two more home games, the two sides are about to start the battle of Tianwangshan in the next game. The two sides are playing in full swing.

    The opponents are inseparable, but for the Nuggets, it has little impact on them. For them, it is the same for both the Rockets and the Mavericks. Their goal this year is the championship. This firm heart  There will be no wavering due to changes in opponents.

    Anthony has a more far-sighted vision than others at this moment. He knows the winner of the series between the Rockets and the Mavericks. The previous development is the same as in history. If nothing happens, the Mavericks will win.  After two games, they successfully advanced to the first round and became their opponents in the next round.

    When the Mavericks are their opponents, the two sides will definitely be in a battle. Anthony doesn't care about this. Speaking of styles and lineups, the two teams are very similar, and both have very deep bench depth. The Mavericks' Fan Hoo  Well, Stankhouse, Devin Harris, and Daniels are all very capable substitutes. It will be an interesting confrontation for the Nuggets.

    But compared to these, Anthony is more concerned about Nash. In the series against the Nuggets, Nash's performance can be said to be very good, averaging 18 points and 12.7 assists per game, shooting close to 60%, All-Star  statistics, but now, if he faces the Mavericks, he will face his good teammates in the past, the other two of the Mavericks' three guns, Nowitzki and Finley, and his mentor Nelson.  For Nash, it would be a lie to say there was no impact.

    At this time on the court, Anthony was sitting off the court, watching the "Son of the Wind" galloping back and forth on the court. The ball flew back and forth in his hands like magic. The whole team had a sense of wonder under his leadership.  The feeling of flying up when playing, I have to say, this is the charm of Nash.

    "Hey, Melo, what are you thinking about? I see that you have been a little absent-minded all morning." Just when Anthony was looking at Nash in a daze, someone suddenly reached out and patted him on the shoulder. When he looked up, he saw that it was Mu  Tombo, this veteran's playing time this season has been very limited, but it cannot change his status as the leader of the locker room. If the team has a veteran, it is like having a treasure. This sentence cannot be wrong.

    "No, it's nothing. I'm just tired. Let's take a rest." Anthony smiled and said.

    "What? The first round was much easier than expected. You shouldn't be tired. Could it be that you were squeezed dry by a woman?" Mutombo said jokingly.

    Anthony smiled and shook his head. He wanted to say that he was really troubled by women's problems now, but he immediately said with a smile: "I don't have that kind of energy. This is the playoffs. Who knows what will happen in the next game?"  It¡¯s not going to be a full game.¡±

    "It's very good to have this awareness." Mutombo nodded with satisfaction when he heard Anthony's answer, but immediately, he said with a bad smile, "But a balance between work and rest is still needed, and you can't be left out because of the game.  Got a woman, haha"

    After Mutombo finished speaking, he laughed heartily, and along with his wrinkles, he gave people an extraordinarily kind feeling.

    Anthony looked at Mutombo speechlessly. Perhaps it was because the series was so easy. Even Mutombo was beginning to be interested in making fun of others.

    "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Let's talk about it. What are you worried about? Is it a team matter or a personal matter? If it's a personal matter, just pretend I didn't ask." Mutombo is, after all, a man of the league.  For someone who has been fighting for so many years, his vision of seeing people is still very accurate.

    At this time, Anthony turned to look at Nash who was running on the court, then turned his head and said in a low voice: "Uncle Mu, maybe you have never experienced this feeling. You say a person, if he is in the playoffs  Is it possible for him to face his former mentor and one of his closest friends without being affected?"

    Mutombo was silent for a while, and did not immediately answer Anthony's question. Instead, he looked up at Nash on the court, then turned around and said, "Are you talking about Steve?"

    Anthony had no intention of hiding anything and nodded.

    "Actually, you don't have to worry at all." Mutombo's answer surprised Anthony. "It's true that Steve is a more emotional person, but he is also a very professional person.  Players, you have to believe this.

    Hearing Mutombo¡¯s words, Anthony smiled bitterly. This statement is probably a one-sided statement.The above thoughts, plus some comforting words, maybe these are the polite words of a veteran.

    Mutombo saw Anthony's unconcerned expression, and he said seriously: "Mello, you still have to believe what I said, even though I haven't really experienced what Steve may be going through now.  But in the past two years, when Allen and I were on the same team, we were on the verge of the playoffs. It was in the last few rounds. We played the Nuggets. You weren't there yet.  When I came to the Nuggets, they were also working hard for the playoffs. I was also facing my mentor and teammates at that time. In that game, if I remember correctly, I remember I scored 12 points, 15 rebounds, and 4 blocks.  The data was one of my better performances that season.¡±

    "Actually" At this point, Mutombo patted Anthony's shoulder meaningfully and said, "In the big environment of the league, teammates become opponents, and mentors become opponents. There are too many things to count.  From my understanding, your outstanding performance is the best for them, because it is a form of respect, isn't it?"

    Anthony listened to Mutombo's words, and the worry in his heart could not help but fade a lot. Uncle Mu was right. As a former teammate, if he played very poorly after changing teams, maybe as a teammate and friend, then  That's the last thing he wants to see. With Nash's emotional intelligence, he must know this.

    Seeing Anthony's enlightened look, Mutombo patted him on the shoulder again and said: "Don't think too much. Thinking too much consumes your brain, and the Rockets and Mavericks haven't finished playing yet, maybe  Our opponent suddenly became Houston, so wouldn¡¯t your worries be unfounded?¡±

    Anthony smiled and nodded. At this moment, Coach Karl signaled him to come on and run tactics, and he stood up.

    The series between the Rockets and the Mavericks was the same as Anthony's encounter. The Mavericks won the Battle of Tianwangshan under a controversial call, and then won another victory on the road, eliminating the Rockets in one fell swoop. Successfully  They advanced to the second round, and their opponent was the Nuggets, who had already prepared for it.

    The two teams, both of which had very strong offensive firepower, immediately attracted the attention of the fans. In the already hot football market, it was really hard to get a ticket. The fans squeezed out their scalps just to watch the two sides.  Confrontation battle.

    Of course, these have nothing to do with Anthony or the Nuggets. For them, the only thing they have to do is go on the field and play a wonderful game.

    On the day of the game, during training, Anthony keenly noticed that something was wrong with Nash's mood. Although he didn't show it too much, it could be seen from his not particularly excited state. In fact,  This is also human nature. What Mutombo said is certainly correct, but after all, people are not machines, but animals with emotions. It is really unrealistic to be completely unaffected.

    At this time, the only thing Anthony could do was to step forward and pat Nash on the shoulder, and then whisper in his ear for a while to let him relax. It would be useless to say more at this time.

    Just like that, for Nash, a former teammate and a mentor are walking on a single-plank bridge together at this moment. He can either walk over it by himself, or fall down, there is no other way to choose.

    Because the Nuggets lead the league in terms of record, they have home court advantage against all playoff teams. This series against Dallas will naturally be no exception. The first game of the second round will naturally be in  Held at the Pepsi Center.

    But before the game started, for the Nuggets and local Denver fans, there was another thing that was more worthy of celebration. Just before the game started, the league announced the ownership of the regular season MVP. The result was also in the eyes of most people.  As expected, Anthony, who led the team to win the first place in the regular season, averaged 30.6 points, 7.8 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game in the regular season, becoming the first player in the history of the league to win the regular season title in both his rookie and second seasons.  mvp player.

    In the long history of the league, Anthony has achieved something that has never been done before. Not only has he surpassed many current players, he has even surpassed many ancient gods. This is definitely a great achievement for a league player.  Achievements, generally speaking, a young player will talk about how talented and potential he has, but what Anthony is doing now is that when people think he still has these, he has already converted them into immediate combat power.  His future, in everyone's eyes at this moment, is truly immeasurable.

    The MVP award ceremony began before the game. Under the deafening cheers of the fans at the scene, Anthony suddenly raised the trophy after expressing his gratitude to the fans, friends, coaches and teammates.

    The surrounding spotlights flashed, and the fans' cheers echoed through the arena at this moment. This series has not yet begun, but the Nuggets' momentum has reached an unprecedented height after this award ceremony.  .  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Cheers of ?? resounded throughout the arena at this moment.
