Chapter 937 Entering the finals for the 6th time in a row

The Raptors defended their home court, which did not cause any disturbance in the outside world.From everyone's point of view, if you have a team with Yingxiong's 5 consecutive championships and are playing at home, if you can't win against a youth team that has lost Irving and Hayward, what are you doing to compete for the 6 consecutive championships? What about domineering!

Therefore, only the Raptors themselves understand that this young army is not easy to deal with, and their defense is so good.If this team has the offense of the Golden State Warriors, then this round of the series, it will really not be easy.

On May 5, the Raptors VS Celtics Eastern Conference Finals G16 will continue to be held at the Air Canada Center Arena, the home of the Raptors.

DeRozan, who was hit with a nosebleed in the last game, underwent an MRI test after the game, and his nasal bone was fine. Without accident, he can play in G2 of the Eastern Conference finals.This is good news for the Raptors. You must know that although he is unstable, he is the team's No. 2 scorer anyway.

In this game, the Celtics made a change. They mentioned Aron Baynes to the starting lineup, and partnered with Al Horford to form an inside lineup.

In this game, from the beginning of the game, other Raptors players who performed poorly in the last game began to show off.Not only DeRozan, but the starters Siakam, Jeremy Lin and Ibaka, and the substitutes Lowry and CJ Myers all played outstanding games.

The Celtics were caught off guard. They originally hoped that Baynes could help Horford protect the inside line. Unexpectedly, once the opponent opened the outside line and switched to attack, they couldn't stop it.

The Raptors took the initiative from the very beginning of the game, blooming more points, and the point gap was slightly widened.At halftime, they had a lead of more than 20 points.

It was originally a tense Eastern Conference Finals G2, but in this case, it turned into a unilateral massacre by the Raptors.

In the second half of the game, the Raptors still performed steadily. Under the control of Yingxiong, they did not give their opponents any chances and successfully maintained the score advantage until the end.

In the end, the Raptors made another victory at home and won G2 in the Eastern Conference finals, thus rewriting the big score of the series to 2:0.

After the game, there were not many news about the match between the two teams, but there were lively discussions about Ying Xiong's next move.Of course, everyone is still concerned about the outcome of this round of the series, but everyone thinks there is no suspense about the outcome.You know, the last time Ying Xiong lost a series was in the Eastern Conference semifinals of the 2012-2013 season, when he lost to the Miami Heat, which had the Big Three at the time.

Five years have passed in a flash. During these five years, Ying Xiong won five consecutive championships.Today, he is mentally and technically mature, and no one believes that he will lose to the young Celtics.

On May 5, the Raptors VS Celtics Eastern Conference Finals G20 will be moved to Boston's North Shore Garden Arena.This game is an early decisive battle for the Celtics who are 3:0 behind.They face the same situation that the Raptors' opponents in the first two rounds faced at the time -- carry on or go home?
The Boston North Shore Garden Arena is a well-known arena in the entire NBA league. It has witnessed the glory and trough of this giant team.Today, this team, which is looking at rebuilding, has entered the Eastern Conference finals, which really makes those ten thousand bad teams envy.

Neither the Celtics management nor the fans care so much about whether the team can enter the finals, because the possibility is too low after all.What they saw was the talent of this team and the coaching ability of young coach Stevens.For them who hold a lot of draft picks, the future is bright!

With a lot of draft picks in hand, the young people in the team are leveling up on the dynasty team that has won five consecutive championships. This feeling is only the Celtics in the league.

In this game, the Celtics changed again. They played "one big and four small". In the starting lineup, only Horford was left inside, and the four outsiders were Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Sma Te and Rozier.

Strictly speaking, the Raptors are also a small lineup, and there are no big men over 210cm on the court.But their average height is not low, more than 2 meters. Except for Jeremy Lin who is less than 2 meters tall, the other 4 people are all over 2 meters tall.

In this game, the Celtics played fast offensive basketball as soon as they came up, shooting decisively from the outside with a high shooting percentage, and played a small climax at the beginning.

The fans in Boston's North Shore Garden Arena are very excited. Even if they don't believe that the home team can cross the Raptors in front of them and enter the finals, it is good to be able to make this 5 consecutive championship dynasty team suffer.

However, the Raptors' lag was short-lived. Soon Ying Xiong and Jeremy Lin played a small climax and immediately caught up with the score.

The small lineup of the Celtics has the hidden danger of insufficient interior height. The Raptors are such a team with rich experience. Naturally, they immediately seized this defect of the opponent, frequently killed the penalty area, and quickly controlled the field. situation.

In this game, both the youth team at home and the coach of the youth team, Stevens, gave their all. However, due to the huge gap in strength, this kind of recklessness can only be resisted for a while, and there is no continuation. sex.

In the end, the Raptors defeated the opponent in an away game, rewriting the big score of the series to 3:0, and basically booked the tickets for the sixth consecutive finals.

The Raptors led 3:0, and still did not cause too many ripples. There is no way, since this round of the series has never started, not many people are optimistic about the young Celtics team.Everyone generally believes that they have already exceeded the task by reaching the Eastern Conference Finals.The Eastern Conference finals should be learned from the five champions. As for the finals, let's talk about it later!
On May 5, the Raptors VS Celtics series G22 will continue at the North Shore Garden Arena in Boston.

In this game, although the Celtics were also very tenacious, they were not as crazy as the previous 3 games. After all, players are also human, and human beings will have their own ideas.Most people will not try their best for something that they already know that there will be no results.

The Raptors won G4 calmly, swept their opponents with a big score of 4:0, and advanced to the finals for the sixth consecutive time.

After the series ended, Ying Xiong said in an interview: "I have the opportunity to play in the finals for the sixth time in a row. This is my luck as a professional basketball player. I will do my best to win the championship!"

Raptors coach Devin Casey said: "It is an honor for me as a coach to be able to coach such a player!"

The Raptors took the lead in entering the finals, and their opponent in the finals was the winner between the Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets.At present, the score of the Western Conference finals is 2:2. It is really hard to say who will enter the finals.
