If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 206 The first to advance
"Facing the Thunder's defense, Fernandez made a mistake."

"Yi Jian's long pass assisted Lowry for a layup."

"The Blazers' pick-and-roll, Miller gave the ball to Aldridge, and Aldridge shot Yi Jian...and missed."

"It was the Blazers' turn to attack again, and the Blazers still gave the ball to Aldridge, and Aldridge was going to hit Yi Jian with his back. He was much tougher today...Oh, my God, just hit the hat, Yi Jian is too tough! "

"Small fight big, Yi Jian defended to the three-point line, and it was a big cap, Yi Jian's defense was invincible!"

After the game started, the Blazers seemed to want to get tough, but they really couldn't.

Whether it is Aldridge or the outside offense, they are a little bit worse in front of the Thunder's defense.

On the contrary, their defense, which was pretty good at first, can't do well now.

Yi Jian and Durant each scored, and it was difficult for the Blazers to limit.

The rush in the first quarter did not rush, but was killed by the Thunder. The Blazers players were a little depressed.

When it came to the rotation period, Thunder substitutes Dragic and Matthews played very well again, and the Blazers couldn't stand it again.

Not only in terms of basketball skills, the key is that the mentality is about to collapse.

Aldridge is still gritting his teeth and persisting this time, but the efficiency cannot be high.

He didn't dare to play back anymore, he just pulled out the pick-and-roll and shot directly, and the ball became a bit hot in the end.

If it weren't for the fact that the rest of the team couldn't get up, Aldridge really didn't want to persevere, and he was really bitter.

In the first half, there was basically no suspense in the game.

In the second half, the Blazers desperately shrunk their defense, and their defensive efficiency was slightly better, but their offense was not good, which also made it impossible for them to catch up with the score.

The Trail Blazers' first home game just passed in a hurry.

In the third game of the first round, the Thunder successfully won the match point.

After the game, Trail Blazers coach McMillan said angrily: "They played aggressively, but we completely defeated our opponents on the rebound."

"We made too many mistakes in the game, either turnovers or mishandling of the ball, which cost us. We let Yi Jian play an MVP performance, and Durant also contributed a lot in the series."

Thunder coach Brooks said, "They spent a lot of time defending Yi Jian and Durant so that the rest of us would get enough opportunities. Obviously, we seized the opportunity."

The Thunder's defense is also very good. In fact, they have been doing well in this series.

Yi Jian said: "Defense has become our habit, we are pursuing high goals, so these are the things that must be done."

After the game, Durant talked about his shooting. He said: "I only need to shoot a ball to warm up my hand. This is how I feel every time."

Returning to the home court is not an opponent at all, but the Blazers are unwilling to accept their fate.

They didn't want to be swept by the Thunder, Roy chose to come back.

In fact, this is really unnecessary, but Roy doesn't want to make himself regret, he wants to fight.

However, although Roy, who came back from the fourth game, worked hard, his efficiency was not high anyway, and the Blazers were still swept away.

The media basically believe that Roy’s return is a risky act. The return of a hero, fighting with injuries can boost the morale of the team and defeat the confidence of the opponent. However, this move is like a double-edged sword. A little carelessness will hurt yourself .

Facing a team like the Thunder, Roy's reluctant return will not help the team, but will easily hurt himself.

But Roy did not regret it. He said after the game: "I am very happy to play, but I can't play at my level, my jumping ability is not enough, but at least I can go into the summer healthy and finish with my teammates. this season."

The Trail Blazers ended the season, while the Thunder went forward bravely and took the lead in advancing to the second round.

In the west, no other team is so sharp.

In the East, there are teams that have done it, and it is an ambitious comeback Magic.

Last season gave the Magic confidence, and they are also heading for the championship in the playoffs.

It's just that their style of play still has obvious advantages and disadvantages, and whether they can do it depends on luck.

However, they still showed the dominance of a strong team in the first round, facing the defensive team Bobcats mercilessly.

The Bobcats were also restrained when they encountered the Magic, and the Magic defended well, and for a team like the Bobcats that likes to hit the basket, Howard is too threatening.

The Bobcats were stunned by Howard in this series.

There is no way around this. The Bobcats have three strong points, Westbrook, Wallace and Jackson. Only Jackson has an outside basket, and the other two are all rushing inside.

To be honest, Westbrook actually performed well in the playoffs and dared to challenge Howard, but the other way around is also brainless.

Teams that can defend meet, and when a team is still attacking, the result is already clear, not to mention that the style of play is still restrained.

Yi Jian is taking everyone to comment on each series. In addition to continuing to strengthen the status of the team, he also hopes that everyone can improve some golf quotients.

"The Lynx's tactics are really too rigid. If some of the older famous coaches don't keep up with the development of the times, it will be a kind of imprisonment for the team."

"However, the Bobcats have nothing to do. If they knock Howard down, there may still be a chance. A team that only defends to extremes will hardly go further in the playoffs."

"But if they practiced their shooting well, the result would not be so tragic. How many opportunities they have wasted from beyond the three-point line, they dare not shoot, and they just hit the iron...As professional players, how can they be so bad at shooting? We have to learn from it. Lesson, you must practice shooting well."

Now that Yi Jian is commenting, there must be a lot of echoing voices around him.

It's not that everyone is flattering, but that Yi Jian's ideas have gradually become the team's ideas. Under his influence, everyone's views on basketball are getting closer and closer.

There is no suspense in the Eastern Cavaliers and Bulls group. There is an essential gap in strength between the two sides. Even if the Bulls' young players Rose and Noah perform well, it is useless.

However, the Cavaliers did not sweep, and the Bulls relied on Rose's outburst to pull back a game at home.

It can only be said that the Cavaliers ordered a little more, Williams was completely suppressed by Rose, he and Jamison were also unstable on the offensive end, and O'Neal was no longer Noah's opponent.

When several strong teams in the East have insiders who can help defend James, the Cavaliers are really not so easy.

No matter how they change the lineup, the fundamental problem is still not resolved.

Overall, the east is still stronger and weaker.

Their three strong teams with relatively good strength are both offensive and defensive, and they will solve the problem in five games at the latest.

In addition to the Cavaliers and Magic, the strong team in the East is naturally the Celtics.

The Celtics' record in the regular season was a little worse due to injuries, but they were still big brothers in the playoffs.

In the West, there are actually fewer teams that can be called both offensive and defensive.
