The strongest basket king

Chapter 199 Unbearable

The Clippers and Grizzlies took the lead in the first round of the second game in the West. This time the Clippers had a much harder time winning the game, relying on Paul's lore to win the game.

The Grizzlies are very adaptable to the game and desperate enough, but they still need someone on the bench to stand up, maybe just need to perform a little better, and they can counterattack.

As a hard bone in the playoffs, the Grizzlies have very strong mental attributes, and the Clippers do not have enough toughness, and they may encounter trouble in the next game.

Facing the same opponent, any team will adjust, which is why Xiang Chu dare not relax in the slightest.

In the East, the Bulls went up and down, and won the Nets by leading the suffocating defense and team efforts.

The fourth-fifth duel is inherently unpredictable. Facing a ruthless role like the Bulls, the Nets may not be fully prepared.

The duel between them is also a duel between strong points of play and overall play.

Several strengths of the Nets can be regarded as the All-Star level, but due to various reasons such as age and injuries, they are only the weaker ones in the All-Star level.

If they can't exert their full strength, they are likely to capsize.

The playoffs are a battlefield for stars, but it is also a battlefield for ruthless players. If you are not strong enough in the fierce confrontation, just wait for failure.

In the second game between the Spurs and the Warriors, something happened.

They were very close in the first game, but the Spurs hit more shots from the outside.

This time the Spurs' outside line was a bit out of flame, but Curry and Klay Thompson were still sharp. Klay Thompson even scored 34 points and 14 rebounds, including 8 three-pointers. As a player in Xiang Chu's class, Klay - Thompson is also worth looking forward to.

The Warriors regained the home court advantage, which added a little uncertainty to this group of duels.

The Warriors this season really gave the league a lot of surprises, and their growth is really rapid.

The Nuggets are strengthening on the basis of having already entered the playoffs, so in this respect, they are not as impressive as the Warriors' big turnaround. The key is that they did not rely on any big deal to achieve their current achievements. People admire.

In the second game between the Knicks and the Celtics, the script did not change at all.

The two sides are still at a slow pace, or Anthony beat the pack to get a 30+ harvest game.

The Celtics can't get up fast at all now. They are actually at a disadvantage in playing like this. They don't have the absolute strength of Anthony.

Pierce couldn't score as well as Anthony even at his peak, let alone Pierce's ability has declined now.

The rotation lineup, they can't play JR, so if the Celtics want to win, they must increase their own offensive threat while limiting the performance of the Knicks, which is relatively difficult anyway.

On the same day, the Heat took the Bucks lightly again.

It is difficult for the Celtics to beat the Knicks, and it is even more difficult for the Bucks to win against the Heat.

The Bucks' most powerful outside line has been overwhelmed by the Heat, what else can they come up with.

The answer is no. Among all the playoff teams, the Bucks must be the worst team. Unless there is a problem with the Heat themselves, the Bucks have almost no chance with their strength.

On April 4, the Nuggets finally ushered in the second game of the first round of the playoffs, and Faried returned.

The Nuggets' starting lineup has not changed, it is still one big and four small.

First of all, they played well in the first and fourth juniors, and secondly, Faried has to observe his status when he comes back, and he can't just let him go up to fight against Gasol.

The Lakers' starting lineup has not changed, but their strategy has been slightly adjusted.

Howard launched a fierce attack from the beginning, and the Lakers understood that Warcraft may not necessarily have physical strength after holding back, so it is better to start recklessly.

If they can make Xiang Chu's foul, they will make a profit.

But now it is more difficult than imagined. Howard's efficiency against Xiang Chu is not as good as playing.

In the past few days, Xiang Chu has played against Howard in many simulated games. Both on the offensive and defensive ends, the details have been done much better.

Under his leadership, the Nuggets took the lead from the start.

Iguodala stepped up from the outside and grabbed the open three-pointer, but the others were still slow, especially Fournier, which disappointed George Karl.

Coming to the playoffs, Fournier did not have the efficiency of the regular season.

If he can't adjust in time, the chances he will get next will be reduced.

He can become the starter because he can open up space for Xiang Chu. If he can't hit the outside line, it doesn't make much sense for him to play, and his defense is not very good.

Howard can also score under continuous offense, but it doesn't help the team much.

He made Xiang Chu a foul, but Xiang Chu also made him a foul.

Howard vowed in an interview before the game that the Lakers would win, but it is difficult for him to do so now.

Howard's strong play had no effect, and D'Antoni signaled Nash to dominate the game.

D'Antoni still has expectations for Nash, and Nash is also working hard, but he really can't do it now.

He can't get rid of the defense to score, and the threat of passing the ball is relatively weakened.

But the Lakers still resisted, relying on their three-pointers.

Blake, Artest, Morris, Jamison, the Lakers really used their lives.

Their performance off the bench was a bit stronger than on the field, which is why their score was not stretched.

It's just that the Lakers' most fundamental problem has not been solved, their own offense and defense against Xiang Chu.

The old Miller's ability to seize opportunities for the Nuggets is still good. In the second quarter, Ty Lawson also came to the touch, and the Lakers had a hard time supporting them.

After they focused on the perimeter, Howard became a blue-collar again, and he was still a blue-collar who couldn't win rebounds.

Howard's performance is really disappointing. He has no problem as a team's inside starter, but he is not qualified to lead a team to win the playoffs.

I don't know if he has degenerated, or D'Antoni really can't use him well.

At the end of the half, the Nuggets led by exactly 10 points.

Xiang Chu's performance completely suppressed Howard. If no one from the Lakers stands up, the Nuggets will have another harvest in this game.

Their confidence is getting stronger and stronger. With Xiang Chu's playoffs, they really feel that the rhythm is in their hands.

In the confrontation with Xiang Chu, Howard became more and more like a blue-collar player. The biggest card of the Lakers can be said to have been abolished in half.

In the second half, Xiang Chu played even stronger.

After he can make a lot of technical moves in the low post, it will be more difficult for Howard to limit him.

In just a few minutes, Howard had already fouled 4 times and got a technical foul for arguing with the referee.

D'Antoni simply replaced him and completely played a small lineup.

However, the Lakers' small lineup is not afraid of the Nuggets at all.

Without Kobe, their small lineup can only shoot from the outside, and Xiang Chu can rest assured to defend outside, and the Lakers can't stand it again.
