Legend Raiders

Chapter 320 The first day of the playoffs

4 month 20 day.

Two teams in the East and the West began to fight against each other, namely the top-ranked Knicks and Celtics, Bulls and Nets, Warriors and Nuggets, Grizzlies and Clippers.

From the performance of these four teams this season, it can be seen that the top-ranked teams do not necessarily have a very big advantage.

For example, the Celtics and the Knicks. Although the former players are aging and the championship lineup of the year has also shrunk, no one dares to underestimate their abilities.

Let's talk about the Grizzlies and Clippers.

Although the Clippers have Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan, the Grizzlies, known for their toughness, are naturally not easy to deal with.

pity.

The final result tells people that being able to stand at the top of the ranking is really luck and not the first place.

The first is the game between the Knicks and the Celtics. Driven by the Celtics, the Knicks actually fought a defensive battle with them.

And in this game, even Anthony, who has always been criticized for defense, handed in a seemingly acceptable answer sheet.

The final score of the two teams was fixed at 85:78, and the Knicks won their first victory at their home court.

Next are the Bulls and the Nets.

The Nets this season really brought an exciting performance to this team that once gave the Knicks a green leaf.

With stars such as Deron Williams and Joe Johnson, they played very confidently and passionately when facing the Bulls without Rose.

Especially the main players such as Deron Williams, who are the arrows of the team, they did not say that they showed everything they have mastered, but no one in the starting lineup scored single-digit points at all, and the least Andre · Blatche, were able to score 12 points and 5 rebounds.

have to say.

If it weren't for a certain brain-dead manager who made a few foolish operations, the Nets would not say that they would regain their glory, and their record and future would not be so nonsense.

After talking about the East, let's talk about the Lower West.

The first is the Warriors who brought surprises.

In their game against the Thunder, whether it was Klay Thompson, known as "Chinese soup", or Stephen Curry, who has a baby face and has now shown impressive abilities.

They have completely become the true core of the Warriors in this game. Thompson has a good efficiency, scoring 19 points, 10 rebounds and 22 assists on 4 of 3 shots. Curry's performance is a bit poor, with only seven of 20 shots The ball was accounted for, but also scored 19 points.

再加上老牌明星大卫·李的10分14个篮板，安德鲁·博古特的9分15个篮板3次封盖，勇士队的首发发挥的让人十分惊艳。

And because of their dominance inside, they also pointed out the Achilles' heel of the Thunder.

And the Thunder team here.

Although the data is not as luxurious as that of the Warriors, but with the outbreak of the twin stars Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, when everyone else is sluggish, they still let them win with a score of 97:95. To this difficult victory.

after the game.

The Warriors said without hesitation that the next game will definitely revenge the Thunder.

Finally, there is the game between the Grizzlies and the Spurs.

In this game, from the first quarter, the two teams seem to have the final result.

The Grizzlies, led by Gasol Jr. and Zach Randolph, gave people a slightly tired feeling from the beginning, and their confrontation intensity was not as good as in the last few games of the regular season.

So after the first quarter of the game, although the Spurs' offense has never been very sharp, they still won this quarter with 29:21.

However, in the second quarter, the hibernating Grizzlies seemed to have finally found their sense. With their own tough defense and attitude, although they didn't win much in this quarter, they could always suppress the Spurs 30:29.

pity.

The Grizzlies in this game still haven't adjusted after all.

As the second half of the game began, the Spurs completely gave up the smooth offense, but chose to wrestle with the Grizzlies on the defensive end.

Relatively speaking.

From a normal perspective, the toughness and defense of the Spurs and the Grizzlies are still somewhat different after all, but in this quarter they directly tied with the Grizzlies.

Arrived at the last section.

The veteran powerhouse Spurs completely let go of themselves. Not only is the defense tougher, but it is even more powerful on the offensive end.

At some point.

After the Grizzlies collapsed for no reason, they finally scored a not-so-bad 22 points, but the Spurs scored an astonishing 37 points.

You know, the Spurs are not a strong offensive team, but they scored so many points, it can be seen that this last quarter was completely hilarious.

after the game.

The Grizzlies also gave such a bad reason.

Because the few games before the playoffs wanted to move the rankings to the front, this prompted them to play very focused every game, and their bodies were 100% devoted to it.

The final result is meaningless, but everyone knows that the Grizzlies are tired now.

After the first day of the playoffs was declared over, everyone's eyes were on the second day's game.

Because in tomorrow's game, the top players from the east and west will all appear together with their opponents.

The Rockets will start the first round of the playoffs with the Lakers, and the Nuggets will start the battle with the Clippers.

Here in the East is the battle between the Heat and the Bucks, the Eagles and the Pacers.

Regarding this day's game, it was fueled by all the media, and it was marked as a test for the first place in the East and West.

According to the usual script, the top players in the East and West will at least enter the semifinals, or even the finals of the East and West.

So let's not say whether this thing is reliable, but at least it has a high probability of being like this.

at the same time.

At the end of the first day of the playoffs, all members of the Rockets did not choose to watch the game together, but stayed at their homes to prepare mentally and physically for the next day's game.

In the villa.

Qin Tao frowned slightly, watching the game that had ended on TV, as if he was thinking about something.

Zarya and Laidlow were very considerate and didn't make any noise, just lying on his sides silently.

For a long time.

Qin Tao seemed to have figured something out, but he asked a little nervously, "Honey, do you think the rocket may go further?"

Zarya and Laidlow looked at each other, and it was hard for them to say this question.

to be honest.

Everyone knows the strength of the Rockets. The most threatening players in the team are Qin Tao and Harden.

And they were able to play such an amazing record and competition, Qin Tao definitely played an inestimable role in it.

After all, no one thought that the Yao Ming era had just ended and the Rockets, which were supposed to be in the rebuilding period, would have such a terrifying record this season.

No one would have thought that the Rockets had acquired two All-Stars in just one trade with the Thunder!
