Chapter 1217 - [1 student without a crown, out of the game]
The other series in the West have successively scored wins and losses. The Warriors eliminated the Grizzlies 4 to 1, and it was easier to win.
The fighting spirit of the Grizzlies players is commendable. In the fourth game, Mike Conley and Courtney Lee broke out, avoiding the doom of being swept away at home.
The Spurs defeated the Kings 4-1 and faced no challenges.
Harden became very hard once he entered the playoffs, averaging 28.5 points, 5.5 rebounds and 8 assists, shooting 41.3% from the field and 27.8% from the field.
Leonard’s defensive ability has once again been unanimously recognized by experts. His counterpoint Harden can break through the face defense frame and can also interfere with the shot with an ultra-long arm span. Harden has been deflated again and again, and such a low hit rate has actually been prevented.
Harden only shot 55.6% in the third game, scoring 28 points and 12 assists to drive the team to victory. In the other four games, he was defended very ugly. In the worst of the fifth game, he made 2 of 11 shots, 2 of 9 three-pointers, 4 of 6 free throws, and only had 10 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists.
After the game, many people think that Leonard is a better star than Harden. He not only defended well in the playoffs, but also scored 27 + 7 + 5 on the offensive end. The shooting rate entered the 180 club.
Blowing Leonard also includes George Carr, the former coach of the King who has finished class, and he continues the characteristic of conflicting with everyone.
Carl was still defending Harden when he coached the king. After class, he almost didn’t give face to Harden. Recently, he publicly said that Harden had no leader temperament, and the angry Harden was angry and shouted that Karl was a villain!
The Pelicans and the Clippers played a tie-breaker. They beat the Clippers 108-88 at home and scored 20 points for the first time to advance to the second round.
After the victory, the media trumpeted Anthony Davis’s leadership temperament. Before he was blown into the fourth largest forward in history, it is only a matter of time before Barclay, who has passed the regular season mvp, becomes the third largest forward in history.
In fact, Davis didn’t show any advantage against Griffin, and Chris-Paul against Kyrie Irving also had a slight advantage. The Clippers’ fatal weakness was the center, and Mozgov and Speights were all exploded by Cousins.
In the crucial tie-break, Paul also fell off the chain. He played 40 minutes, only 6 of 19 shots, 1 of 7 three-pointers, 0 of 1 free throws, only 13 points, 4 rebounds and 9 assists.
Austin Rivers faced the sparseness of Zac LaVine who squeezed himself away, 4 of 12 shots, 1 of 4 three-pointers, only 9 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist.
In addition to Cousins scoring 24 points, 13 rebounds and 3 assists, another hero is Raven. He made 7 of 12 shots, 5 of 9 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws to score 21 points.
Paul lost again. He averaged 20 + 5 + 11 per game in the series. Fans can say “Paul is still defeated”. But looking back on Paul’s journey in the playoffs over the years, it is simply a history of sorrow, two second rounds, other times the first round out of the playoffs or not into the playoffs.
When the Clippers won the sixth game, Paul approached Pierce and said, “I will not let your career end here.”
Then Pierce’s career was over, without a crown in his life …
There was a big upset in the east, and the Nets were eliminated by the Wizards 4-3 in the first round.
Since joining the Nets partner LeBron James, Brook Lopez’s nickname has become “Lo’s first board.” He performed poorly in this series, with only 13.6 points, 4 rebounds and 1.7 assists. He shot 47% from the field and 34.5% from three.
In order to facilitate the breakthrough of James’ face frame, Lopez almost always floated outside to catch the ball and shoot. The Wizards start with three players who are good at shooting three-pointers. Lopez must not only pay attention to Wall’s breakthrough for the pick-and-roll, but also to prevent the three-pointer after the ball-free screen.
Most of his energy on the defensive end, Lopez, and the Nets point guard have almost no pick-and-roll cooperation on the offensive end, and rarely rush to the basket, naturally unable to play good data.
After the game, James secretly sprayed the Nets players, saying that the emperor once again led the team by the junk teammates.
James was so desperate at the press conference that he really wanted to go without knowing where to go next. He didn’t expect to see the Nets reach the finals at that time. He didn’t expect to add him to the finals twice, and he couldn’t stand it this year.
Can’t rely on him and Lopez. The Nets have too many weaknesses. For example, the one who is good at attacking with the ball is James. After the end of the game, he has no one who can lead the team to score.
Beverly is an excellent point guard, can defend three points, this series of defense Wall shot only 40%. Of course, it may not be how good he defends. Wall’s average shooting rate has not been high, and he is not allowed to shoot anyone. He can only choose to break through.
The 76ers eliminated the Pacers 4-2. The 76ers were dominant inside and outside. The only advantage for the Pacers was Jimmy Butler. He won the media two times and won high praise from the media, which blew Gary. Nally.
There are too many young players in the 76ers, the rebuild time is not long, and new people are easy to make mistakes. They are easier in the regular season, because the Eastern Conference strong teams won not many games, enter the playoffs need to test the mentality.
Gallinari’s performance in the playoffs is always not as good as the regular season, which is a major weakness of his. Fortunately, Millsap, Kemba Walker and Jokic performed impressively. Although the difference between each game was not big, they still stabilized the Pacers.
Another good news for the 76ers is that the Nets have been eliminated. They have done poorly in defending the stars. There are no defensive experts in the team. The second round is more likely to win the Wizards. The Wizards have no superstars, and the scores are mainly based on the team. The 76ers are not afraid of any team.
The Bucks eliminated the Magic 4-1, making it the easiest team to advance in the East. Paul George suppressed Gordon Hayward one-on-one. The two have similar technical skills, and George wins over physical fitness.
Hayward’s physical quality is relatively good among whites, and there is a star gap with top-level George, and the shooting rate is not high under strict protection. George didn’t have that horrible broken leg. In actual combat, he can stage a reverse 360-degree turn and dunk.
Inside Joel Embiid also had a slight upper hand against Vucevic, and his athletic ability was much stronger.
The Raptors eliminated the Hawks 4-2, and it was not easy to win.
Lillard once again showed his qualities to people ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ became a blacksmith as soon as he entered the playoffs. He scored a lot with 26.5 points and 4.7 assists. His shooting percentage in the series was only 41.1% and his three-point percentage was 30%.
Once Lillard’s performance is bad, the Raptors’ offense will be very unsmooth. They strengthened their defense through mid-term trading, and the main offensive ball reliance is on Lillard and Guy. Guy’s status has also declined, with fewer breakthroughs and more stops in one shot.
The Raptors will encounter the Bucks in the second round. The regular season two teams have a record of 3-1, leading the Bucks. The Raptors have no home advantage and are in a very disadvantaged position.
The second round of the game began, the Lakers have no pressure on the Pelicans at home, 112 to 94 easily made a good start.
Irving performed well, got 24 points and 5 assists under Guo Xu’s defense, but he was clearly in the disadvantage, Guo Xu scored 32 points and 14 assists.
Irving is a point guard with a point guard stature. He is good at scoring by himself, with a general sense of passing. Guo Xu is the best star with a combination of sudden points and shots, which can always drive the team.
The strength of the Pelican’s flanks is not strong enough to prevent Durant, this weakness is destined to their ending. Cousins, who performed very well in the last round, also started to be stupid. He couldn’t single out Adams in the low post and pulled out to face like a defender to break through and shoot.
He made 7 of 16 shots, 3 of 3 3-pointers, 4 of 6 free throws, 18 points and 11 rebounds, and 6 offenses in the final quarter.
That night, the headlines were the Warriors vs. Spurs …
