Forward to the basket

When you have retreated to the edge of the cliff, there is only one way to go, and that is to crush your opponent head-on.

In fact, there is no need to say much about such things as meeting the brave man on the bottom road, because you have no way to retreat.

The Eagles were in such a situation. They were killed twice in the away game, but after returning home, they still failed to control the rhythm of the game. The defeat in the third game made them stand on the edge of a cliff.

Originally, before the start of the third game, the media in Atlanta were still clamoring that we would come back at home!

Faced with such shouts from their opponents, the Celtics could only smile slightly. They came to Atlanta to make trouble, but they didn't think about whose home court it was. So what if it's your territory?Can you win?

When the Celtics used nearly [-] points of offensive firepower per quarter to suppress the Eagles and couldn't move at all, they had already embraced the victory of the third game, despite the reporters beating their chests on the sidelines.

"Losing the third game is no longer losing a home game, but we will be swept away!"

Now the Eagles are on the verge of being eliminated, but even the Atlanta fans don't expect these guys to create any miracles, and the media lamented on different occasions that they no longer ask for a counterattack.

"One game, as long as we can win one game, maybe we have no other requirements, just hope not to be swept away."

Atlanta's media no longer had the courage to declare war before. All they can do is hope that the Eagles can beat their opponent once at home, even if the win is ugly. They don't ask for much.

After all, this is the first time the Hawks have reached the playoffs in several years, and they really don't want to just go through it.

It was so easy to get in, and then he was going to be swept out like this?And the first out of the playoffs?

I'm afraid no one likes this kind of embarrassing scene. Even when those fans left messages on the Eagles' official forum, they kept saying, "Please guys, we only need one victory now!"

Faced with such shouts, Woodson also wanted to stand up. After all, this was in front of his own house. If he was really swept away, he must have lost his face, but their opponents really made Woodson very helpless.

One game, well, if this task is placed on other opponents, it may not be a problem, at least they can fight for it, but facing the Celtics, Woodson and the Eagles, they are all afraid from the bottom of their hearts.

Not only because the opponent is the number one in the league, but also because these guys completely stunned the Eagles in the first three confrontations. From offense to defense, almost every corner was dominated by the Celtics.

But for the sake of his own face and the expectations of those fans, before the start of the fourth game, Woodson also vowed to the players, "This is our home field! We want to win!"

To be honest, no one wants to face the home fans in such embarrassment, so the Eagles were quite fierce at the beginning of the fourth game. Their offense can be regarded as showing a sharp and fierce side.

Just Joe Johnson scored 11 points in the first quarter, and Bibby also contributed 5 assists. These two guys led the Eagles to start shaking their wings. Looking at this posture, it is really a bit brutal!

But this ferocious impact came to an abrupt end in the second quarter. It's not that the guys from the Eagles didn't work hard, but that their opponents started to attack again after being yelled out by Rivers.

Rivers was upset, and then his men were also upset. Then, the bitter life of the Eagles came. The fat guy was roaring angrily on the sidelines. Garnett and the others They started to risk their lives, even if the Eagles were brutal, they were still helpless and hesitant when they encountered this group of desperadoes.

If they really had a way to contain the fierce charge of the Celtics, then they wouldn't just lose the first three games. They knew what the opponent was going to do, but they couldn't stop them. This feeling is very helpless.

Moreover, in the face of this kind of threat, you have to resist and rush forward, but the result is the same.

The Eagles' insistence became silent before the end of the second quarter, and Woodson's roar was also silent, including the fans in the stands. Finally, they all shut up and watched the defeat quietly.

It was really so quiet, helpless, watching the team being stepped on by the opponent again, the score was tied a little bit, and then pulled away. In the end, the Eagles' habit collapsed, bringing the game to an end.

During this period, there were people roaring, shouting, and roaring in the stands, but most of the time, they remained silent.

Woodson also went through this process, but when he was sitting on the coach's bench and not moving, his team had already raised the white flag of surrender and never caused any trouble for the Celtics. .

Sweeping the Eagles was Rivers' idea, but he didn't expect that it would go so smoothly. He thought those guys could still struggle at home, but the final result was still to complete the sweep.

Only in the first [-] minutes of the fourth game, the Eagles scratched the Celtics with their sharp claws, and then everything calmed down. The final result was also what Rivers needed. The first round of the playoffs has come here until.

The score of four to zero must be dazzling, at least in the eyes of those Atlanta fans.

But Woodson and the Eagles really didn't have any temper, especially in the last quarter, they were completely coping. They really didn't want to be tortured so cruelly by the Celtics anymore.

This feeling is even more miserable than being besieged by the devil in hell. Therefore, Woodson can't stand it, and neither can the Eagles. Their struggle in the fourth game is almost negligible.

It can only be said that it was a struggle in a desperate situation, and it was not a threat at all to the Celtics.

Even Atlanta fans said, "Our resistance is only twelve minutes, that's all."

Although Joe Johnson scored 25 points, his performance will always be criticized by others. This guy who can't be a core leader is destined to be the target of bombardment by others. He, the Eagle King, has failed very much.

Even Josh Smith may be more suitable as a rusher than him. At least that guy can grab the basketball and cut to the basket when Chen Feng slaps him twice, instead of just relying on jump shots to score.

But no one can say that Joe Johnson is not important to the Eagles. It's just that at certain critical moments, this guy is not a reliable leader. He can score, but he can't lead the team to crazily attack opponents.

A guy who lives off jump shots is far inferior to the bald guy who can dunk dunks. This kind of purely mental confrontation, Joe Johnson is not qualified at all. He is not the kind of character who can stand up for a team.

Maybe he can get a good annual salary, but when it comes to the playoffs, where bayonets are popular, his shortcomings are exposed. Maybe everyone in Atlanta is now considering whether this "Eagle King" is qualified.

But discussing these now can't change their fate of being swept out. Joe Johnson will not move in the short term. His jumper skills will definitely be the Hawks' lethal weapon in the next few seasons.

Bibby also scored 17 points and 9 assists, but this core point guard who left the Kings, under the close care of Rondo, has lost his prestige in Sacramento, and even looks a bit old.

However, this comprehensive defeat cannot be blamed on anyone. It is a gap in strength, but also a gap in courage. The ferocity of the Celtics is based on their bravery, which is a kind of ruthless temperament.

It can run through everyone in the team, making them feel their blood is boiling. Every second on the court, they must try their best to put pressure on the opponent, let the opponent collapse, make mistakes, and then accept the fate of defeat.

This is how the Eagles lost, not reconciled, but it can't change anything, that's how they lost.

Woodson led the team to the playoffs, and then, it was swept out by the Celtics.

Maybe they can come back next year, but it's best not to face the Green Shirts again, because those guys who are already crazy about honor will definitely not let go of any chance to sweep their opponents easily.

If you don't want to be like the Raptors, unable to turn around for two consecutive seasons, it's best to avoid these evil stars.

Four victories and an average of 25 points per game. This efficiency made the Atlanta people desperate, but at the same time, many people also understood that Rivers did not actually go all out to score points, he just wanted to defeat the opponent.

If these animals play their lives to score points, uh, win more than 30 points per game?It doesn't seem too difficult.

After all, the firepower net with a hit rate of [-]% at one time, if you really want to cover the Eagles' position, it will only be a matter of minutes, not to mention the confidence of the Atlanta people has long been shattered.

The Eagles can still cope with the defensive intensity in the regular season. In the face of the Celtics' impact, it is almost like a tofu project. As long as they charge a little, these guys will be completely discouraged.

But it is enough to sweep the Eagles out. Similarly, the Celtics also made themselves the first team to reach the second round of the playoffs. The rest of the competitors are still fighting each other middle.

"Now Boston can rest easy waiting for its second opponent, maybe the Cavaliers, maybe the Wizards."

"Compared to their ease, the rest of the competitors seem to be in trouble, and the fight between Cleveland and Washington has shown a fierce state, and the wrestling between the two sides is very fierce."

However, Rivers can now feel at ease to see his competitors working hard on the court, and what the Celtics need to do is to maintain their state, wait for the next opponent, and then continue to kill them!

It's just that compared to the Celtics' easy pass, the confrontation between the Cavaliers and the Wizards has begun to get out of control.

In the melee in the east, only the Celtics are alone...
