After the Timberwolves were eliminated! US media updated the latest chance of winning the championship: the Knicks are only 3%, the Thunder is unique

On May 29, today the Thunder defeated the Timberwolves 124-94. They eliminated the Timberwolves 4-1 with a big score and advanced to the finals. It was 13 years later that Presti returned to the finals with the new Thunder Three Young Masters. However, the East now has no more of the Jen Wai Heat than the Jamway Heat. Their opponents will be between the Pacers and the Knicks. There are only 3 teams left to compete for the championship. Under such circumstances, the US media has also updated the latest probability of winning the championship. Let's take a look.

Knicks' chance of winning the championship is 3%. They are now behind the Pacers 1-3. Although they still have a chance to eliminate the Pacers, there is no hope. The Knicks' two games give people the feeling that they have been led by their opponents. In order to keep up with the Pacers' rhythm, Thibodeau chose to rotate 10 people and play in the double towers. He is not good at using a multiplayer lineup, and these players are not adapted to not playing in the playoffs before, which makes the team's previous system not smooth.

Knicks are not without a chance to win the Pacers. They actually have a chance. In the G3 series, Towns scored 20+8 and led the team to win the victory. They should reuse Towns. In the fourth game of the series, Towns was double-teamed by his opponents, and his teammates got many good opportunities. However, as long as Brunson was present, it would be difficult for the ball to fall into Towns' hands. Brunson's singles ability is indeed excellent, but it is impossible to defeat the Pacers by himself alone, so he should give Towns more ball rights.

In addition, I think Hart should return to the starting lineup. After Miro came up, the team's frame protection and rebound protection were indeed better, but as long as the opponent played quickly, the Knicks could not bear it at all. Miro ran for 2 minutes and his defensive efficiency also declined greatly. Thibodeau has been playing with Carlisle's system recently, but he forgot their own advantages. I think it is on the verge of elimination. It is better to let go and show their due playing style and rotation to fight against the Pacers. The probability of winning the championship is 17%, which means that the two teams in the East have a total probability of winning the championship is only 20%, which is completely inferior to the Thunder in the West. The Pacers are probably given by the US media for Carlisle's sake. The Pacers and the Thunder are very close teams. The offenses of both teams are top-notch. They both have excellent lineup thickness. It is precisely because of the thickness of the lineup that the core of these two teams can still preserve their physical fitness at critical moments.

The only advantage of the Pacers against the Thunder may be Sika. It can be said that Sika is misplaced against the Thunder. It depends on whether Chet can limit him. There is no advantage in facing the Thunder in other positions. It is estimated that Nemhard and Halliburton will become Alexander's targets for the roster. If we look at the thickness of the lineup of the two teams alone, the Pacers are indeed not as good as the Thunder, but they have Carlisle.

Everyone has seen Carlisle's ability. In terms of tactical targetedness and on-the-spot adjustment ability, he is better than Degnot, and he has more experience. Carlisle brings a mediocre team to its current height. If you give Carlisle a super giant, you really can't imagine what kind of height the Pacers can reach. After many years, the Pacers are expected to return to the finals, and Harry will also replace Reggie Miller as the league's biggest villain.

Thunder

Thunder is considered to have a 80% chance of winning the championship. It is understandable that the Thunder's overall strength is too strong. In the second round, against the Nuggets, they forced them into a tiebreak, and in the other two rounds, they eliminated their opponents in a total of 9 games. The Thunder's defense is too terrifying, which is something the Pacers do not have. In the next round, Halliburton faces the Thunder's leadership defense, and it is estimated that it will be very uncomfortable to play. The Thunder is a perfect touchstone team.

Randall, who performed well in the first two rounds, completely defeated the Thunder. Huazi also felt very uncomfortable. Except for players of Jokic, other players seemed to be unable to bear the defense facing them. Moreover, after experiencing the Nuggets' tiebreak, the Thunder now seems to have no shortcomings. After playing against the Nuggets, Alexander's field control ability has improved. In addition, the Thunder will also break the joint defense, and they seem to have no shortcomings.

The Thunder have won 80 wins this season, the third team in history to achieve it, the previous two teams were Curry's Warriors and Jordan's Bulls. If Alexander leads the Thunder to win the championship this season, he may surpass Westbrook and Durant to become the first person in the team's history. At the same time, he will also join the ranks of top teams at the same time, and receive more recognition and discussion. In addition, after the end of this season, Jewish and Chet are likely to receive a maximum salary contract renewal. Many of the Thunder have now made a lot of money to prove themselves.
