As Chris Paul's nemesis, why is Deron Williams so strong? If you know that he practiced wrestling as a child, you probably know better.
In the early days with the Jazz and Carlos Boozer to play Sloan coach blocking, twice eliminated Yao Mai's rockets, let Delong into the vision of the countrymen, and now Paul is still competing for a championship ring of his own as the main force, and Delong has long faded out of the jianghu.
In fact, several years ago, Delong was also very close to the championship. In 2017, Delong was cut by the Mavericks, he quickly joined the Cavaliers, and later the Cavaliers reached the Finals, but the Warriors with Durant were too powerful, and the anger of losing the title in 2016 filled their hearts with a flame of revenge, and finally the Warriors easily defeated the Cavaliers 4-1 to win the championship, and Delong played the Finals and was so close to the championship, but it was so far away.
As the 2009 picker, Griffin was named an All-Star six times and the All-Team five times, and was known as the White Warcraft that year (he was black, of course). In the first few years of entering the league, Griffin can be described as flying, giving people a visual impact of great enjoyment, making people feel that he can do everything, at that time even the sharks claimed to educate their sons to only watch three people in the league play, in addition to Kobe Bryant and James, the other is Griffin.
The Clippers' Big Three, made up of Griffin and Paul and DeAndre Jordan, have never made it to the West Finals, especially when they led 3:1 overall in the Western Conference Semifinals in 2015 and led by 19 points at home at g6, when they suddenly collapsed in the fourth quarter and were successfully reversed by the Rockets. In fact, the Rocket Hairband Gang was a drill of the extreme version of the five small lineups, and the Clippers were successfully attacked without any defense. Later, the Clippers were beaten by the Warriors.
After being traded to the Pistons, Griffin also had a good performance, last year joined the Nets, followed by Aldridge also joined, once made people feel that the Nets' lineup has been invincible, that season has been an early finale, did not expect Harden and Irving to be injured in succession, and finally fought with the Bucks Bayonet only Durant alone in the fight, Griffin very unfortunately missed a very good opportunity to win the championship. Of course, in the 2021-2022 season, it may be the best and perhaps the last chance to win the championship for Griffin and the Big Three of the Nets, as well as Aldridge, who has rejoined the Nets. Can they succeed, and do Griffin and Ade have championship lives? We'll see!
Do you remember Anthony Walker, the fat touto who threw three points on the Atlantic coast? Anthony Walker was one of those players who had good stats but was called a cancer because he liked to throw three-pointers too much, and sometimes he was not so accurate but still went his own way and would hurt the team.
But Walker also has his advantages, 206 tall he claims to be able to play five positions, if in today's small ball era, like three-pointers he may be a hot character!
Fathead Anthony Walker's attributes were considered a championship-free player at the time, especially after he was traded to the Dallas Mavericks. One of the biggest things he contributed to the Mavericks was being traded from the Hawks as a bargaining chip to Jason Terry, and Walker returned to the Celtics and was soon traded to the Heat.
Being traded so frequently shows that many teams have lost patience with him, and they are not optimistic about him, and they all think that he is a cancer. The main thing is that his defense is terrible, except for the rebounding card position, everything else is a bit out of standard.
However, in the Heat, Anthony Walker was transported.
Maybe Miami is his feng shui treasure.
Wade and O'Neal led the team to the Finals, the Sharks needed to work on the inside, Wade also had to kill the basket, fat head was very happy to throw his three points on the outside! And in that finals, Fat Touto played well, he averaged 14 points and 5.5 boards per game, making great contributions to the Heat's victory.
Before that, after that, Anthony Walker was considered a jerk, and perhaps until now, there are still many people who don't realize that he has also won a championship.
Jeremy Lin, who doesn't know?
But he's won championships, you know?
Not a CBA champion, it's an NBA!
As a loser, Jeremy Lin debuted in the Warriors and became famous in the Knicks, where he staged the magic of "Lin Crazy". Since then, Jeremy Lin has been to a number of teams, have had a good performance, until 2019, has passed the peak of his contract with the Raptors, under the leadership of Leonard, this Raptors through thorns, and finally in the finals 4-2 defeated the Warriors who have reached the finals for five consecutive times to successfully reach the top, Jeremy Lin as a team member, justifiably won his own championship.
Regarding the Oppen Hill Palace incident that year, everyone only remembers the protagonist Ben Wallace and Artest, who was considered to be very provocative at that time, think of Stephen Jackson, who was known as "Martial Saint", how did he get the prestige of "Martial Saint", when Artest was lying in the referee's seat calmly, some fans threw drink cups on Artette's back, he was completely enraged, rushed to the stands to beat the fans, but was pulled by many staff. This scene is a complete anger to the brothers Stephen Jackson, he jumped into the audience, continuously chased the trouble fans, that skill is quite athletic, left and right, but played more than 30 games of suspension.
It can also be said that Reggie Miller and O'Neal Jr. dreamed of winning the championship.
Such a tough player is simply a thorn in the head, unless he can reform himself.
In 2007, Stephen Jackson was traded to the Warriors, such a tough player, seamless connection with the Golden State Gang, in the first round of the playoffs series between the Warriors and the Mavericks, Jackson averaged 22.8 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game, and in the 6th game of defense Nowitzki only scored 8 points, helping the team create a black eight miracle. The Warriors coached by Frankenstein Nelson set the best example for the Warriors that later Curry, and Stephen Jackson took the league's No. 1 Mavericks, who had 67 wins in the regular season, with a three-point 8-for-7 gig.
Since then, Jackson has wandered around many teams, and has returned to the Spurs to play with the team in the Western Conference Finals, eventually losing to the Thunder.
Such a player with many problems on and off the court, he has long been a winner in life with the championship ring in hand! He averaged double figures in the Finals as early as 2003 when he played for the Spurs, helping the Spurs beat their old club, the Nets, to win the championship!
The story of the Windy City Rose is already clear to many people, Derek Rose is the 2008 champion, he is the hope of the Bulls revival, since he entered the league bulls have improved significantly, in 2011 he became the youngest MVP in history, the original career of a bright young man but once faded out of the league due to injury.
In 2012, the Bulls, the no. 1 bull in the Regular Season in the East, were staged by the 76ers in the first round of the playoffs because of Rose's absence; in the 12-13 season, Rose missed the entire season due to injury; since then, Rose has always been plagued by injuries, and his knees can't withstand such a high-intensity game, especially when he was traded to the Knicks in 2016, many people thought rose was scrapped.
In 2017, Rose was sent to Cleveland to join forces with Tyrannosaurus James to fight for the championship, but they met the Warriors who had Durant and the Splash Brothers, as well as Dream Green and Iguodala, how could they possibly beat it?
It was Rose's only Finals so far.
Rose was then traded to the Jazz and then cut by the Jazz. At that time, no one would have thought that Rose could return to the top. But Rose didn't give up, signing with the Timberwolves and scoring 50 points in the Timberwolves' game against the Jazz! No one who has the impression of being cut can get 50+ points. After the game, Rose was left in tears of excitement, and he did not give up on himself when everyone had given up on him.
Rose has since joined the Pistons and returned to the Knicks, where he has had several performances in limited playing time.
The story of Derek Rose tells us that even if the whole world abandons you, don't give up yourself!
As for whether Rose can still win the championship, maybe it really doesn't matter that much.
