The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 257 [Sweep to advance]

The Blazers are weaker than the Clippers both offensively and defensively, and they can't win even with Roy, let alone Roy's absence.

In the second half, Camby was troubled by fouls and was replaced. Howard, a substitute, immediately switched to the low post as soon as he got on the Clippers. Ye Feng scored consecutively under Howard's defense.

The fourth quarter entered the garbage time, and both sides replaced the substitutes. Barea and Thornton did not save face for the Blazers, and kept hitting their fragile inside with breakthroughs. The Trail Blazers only scored 17 points in the fourth quarter with Tete and Hayes as three defensive players.

The Clippers beat 128 to 81 by 47 points, setting a record for the team's playoff win.

The commentator said it was a victory for the bench.In this game, the Clippers played 8 substitute players and scored a total of 68 points, while the Blazers had only 10 players who could play, and four came off the bench, Howard, Cunningham, Webster, and Bayless.A total of 18 points were scored, and they were blown away.

叶锋全场攻下38分6篮板4助攻2盖帽，库里也得到了20分，全队7人得分上双。

After the game, Trail Blazers coach McMillan bluntly said that the strength of the two sides is too different. "Our weaknesses have not been filled, our defense is full of holes, we have to recover and really play defense. It is very difficult to beat the Clippers. They only lost 10 games in the entire regular season, but we will To try, to play against the best teams is a tough test for the young players and they are a little bit stuck in this game."

In an interview, Aldridge said: "We lost this game in terms of speed. The Clippers' offensive and defensive transitions are too fast. As long as we miss the shot, someone will definitely make a fast break. And their three-pointers are very accurate. It's too difficult to defend. The Clippers are not a team that only relies on Ye Feng to play, they are very strong as a whole."

Thibodeau and Ye Feng had the same tone. When interviewed by the reporters, they both said they wanted to sweep and advance.

As long as you sweep, the second round will take the initiative, rest a few more days, and wait for work.The Blazers want to win, unless the Clippers themselves are out of order, how could the Clippers be out of order?

The second game was like a replica of the first game. Neither side changed the starting lineup. In the opening 4 minutes, Curry and Ye Feng each made a foul on Camby and knocked him down.Aldridge is "father and mother" on the field, and he is the core on both ends of the offense and defense. McGee and Gortat take turns to defend him, and the effect is good.

阿尔德里奇全场得到了25分8篮板5助攻，这已经高于他的平均水平，可是想独立带队取胜快船无疑是痴人说梦。叶锋这场打了32分钟就拿下了28分5篮板3助攻，比他得分更高。

With little effort, the Clippers won two consecutive home games.The next two games will be played in Portland.

On April 4, the NBA officially announced the first major award-the best coach!With the Clippers' best record this season, Thibodeau was elected without any suspense.In two years, he not only fulfilled his coaching dream, but also reached the top all of a sudden, which made Thibodeau ecstatic and vowed to win the championship this season.Only by winning the championship can he be worthy of the title of the best coach.

At this time, the Clippers have already begun to consider their opponents in the next round.They will play the winner of the Suns or Mavericks.Even if it is an away game, the Blazers can't make any waves.

This time, the Clippers were wrong. The Blazers players did not perform better, but the fans staged an unforgettable scene for the players.

Thibodeau still arranged for McGee and Curry to attack in pick-and-rolls, and Ye Feng moved on the baseline in Love.The Blazers still couldn't break this trick in the third game.

Ye Feng scored 16 points in the first quarter, and the Clippers' substitutes continued to increase the score in the second quarter. It took only halftime to decide the winner.Aldridge has to deal with McGee and Love, so he can't defend Ye Feng. Batum has worked very hard, but the difference in physique between the two is too big. If Ye Feng is in the low post, he can play whatever he wants.You can also choose to hold the ball to your favorite 45-degree angle to shoot.In the first two matches between the two, Batum averaged 8 points per game, which was worse than in the regular season, and both offensive and defensive ends were blown up.

Three minutes into the second half, Ye Feng steals Batum and succeeds in a solo fast-break dunk, extending the score to 3 points. Blazers fans suddenly turn against him.When Ye Feng took the ball again, the voice of "MVP" sounded on the field.

There is nothing more morale-injurious than a fan's defection, not to mention that this is the third game. In theory, the Blazers still have a chance to advance.But the fans know that the Blazers have no chance. If they had known this kind of playoffs, it would be better to lose in the regular season and let the Grizzlies play. At least they would not be ashamed to be swept out.

The Blazers lost to the Clippers 87 to 112.Near the end, the home fans booed everywhere and threw the plastic bats that were supposed to cheer for the home team onto the field to vent their dissatisfaction.

Ye Feng was more worried than happy, because God knows if there will be something very lethal in the middle of these falling plastic sticks.He was right, and after a while, a bottle full of water was thrown down...

After the game, Ye Feng said in an interview: "Fortunately, none of us were injured. This is good news. I have never seen such a violent reaction from the fans before. I like their enthusiasm, but I don't like it." The way they treat people like that. If you do throw things, at least not things that hurt people, throwing plastic sticks is fine."

Thibodeau said: "Anyway, it's really bad to have bottles or other things thrown on the court like today. For us, this is a pretty good away win. I think it will make the players' confidence even better. , we know what kind of strength we have.”

McMillan was speechless in the press conference, and now they lose and lose.

In the fourth game, the Blazers players broke the boat and fought with their backs. Instead of improving morale, the adversity increased the pressure.In the last game, Aldridge also played abnormally.Only got 18 points and 7 rebounds.The Clippers played very relaxed without pressure, and their shooting percentages were also high. They defeated the Blazers 117 to 95.

叶锋在这个系列赛场均31分7篮板4助攻，近乎无解。快船4比0顺利横扫晋级第二轮。

The easy promotion allowed them to get enough rest time, waiting for the winner of the Suns and Mavericks.

主场作战的小牛最终以106比97的比分战胜了太阳队，将双方的大比分扳成了2比2平。这意味着快船至少能多多获得4天休息时间。

Several other series are also in the works.

The Thunder, which entered the playoffs for the first time, returned to the home court to show their prowess. Under the leadership of Durant and Rose, the Thunder defeated the Lakers 104 to 95 at home in Game 29.Bryant only hit 10 goals in 24 shots and scored [-] points.After the game, Jackson bluntly criticized Kobe for playing too alone, which affected the team's internal and external integration.

In the fourth game, Kobe showed his "selflessness" and transformed into a point guard who could pass the ball and never shoot.Durant was unstoppable, and he staged two one-handed dunks in the first quarter. Rose also broke into the inside and pulled the bar for a layup, resulting in a wonderful performance of 2+1.The Thunder played a 10-2 spurt in the first quarter.Leading 33-20.

After that, Kobe still had no desire to attack. The Lakers lost the game happily, and the total score became 2 to 2.

湖人有6人得分上双，但是没有1人得分超过15分。科比只打了前3节，10投5中得到12分。加索尔贡献14分4篮板3助攻，拜纳姆得到12分12篮板3盖帽，奥多姆替补上场得到14分6篮板。雷霆有5人得分上双，杜兰特贡献25分4篮板4助攻，罗斯得到18分6篮板8助攻，格林得到14分11篮板，替补上场的梅诺和哈登各得到12分和17分。

Kobe's failure to shoot not only failed to prove that the Lakers could do without him, but also caused a lot of criticism on the Internet. Many people began to support the Thunder's upset defeat of the Lakers and staged a black seven.

The Nuggets VS Spurs are very fierce, and the "GDP combination" in this playoffs is very healthy and played energetically.In the fourth game, Spurs teenager George Hill broke out and scored a game-high 30 points. The Spurs finally defeated the Nuggets 94-91 after paying the price of two malicious fouls, taking a 3-1 lead in total.

Jiang is still old and hot, and against inside, Duncan is still better than Nene.Parker played poorly against Billups, and Popovich decisively replaced Hill as the starter, which achieved miraculous results.

In the first round of the Eastern Conference, the Magic eliminated the Raptors 4-0 and took the lead to advance. The Cavaliers also defeated the Eagles 4-0. The Celtics led the Bobcats 3-1, and the promotion is in sight.

The only suspense is the Heat VS Bucks, the battle became a 2-2 tie, and both sides won two home games.Of course, the Heat rely on Wade and Mayo in the backcourt, while the Bucks rely on the combination of inside and outside, Jennings, Salmons, and Bogut.

Bogut, who was reimbursed for the season, is still healthy because of the butterfly effect. He played a key role in the series against the Heat, averaging 18 points and 11 rebounds per game, and beat Jermaine O'Neal.In the regular season, he averaged 16 points, 10.2 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 2.5 blocks per game. If he hadn't been injured, he might be selected as an All-Star.After playing in the league for 5 seasons, Bogut finally played at a level consistent with his status as the No. [-] pick and got rid of the hat of a parallel importer.

The Bucks are playing better and better, but the Heat are going to be unlucky.

Now Ye Feng has become an unstressed bystander, looking west, he no longer feels that he has any opponents.Both the Suns and the Mavericks have defensive problems, and the Clippers are not afraid.The Lakers are weaker than expected, probably because Artest, who won the championship, has no fighting spirit. This season, he averaged only 10 points per game, but he has an annual salary of tens of millions. Lakers fans want to kill him.There is Marc Gasol on the inside bench who is very good, but he still can't perform well. He was used by Jackson as a high-post support player, and his statistics are dismal.The possibility of the Clippers entering the finals is as high as [-]%.

What Ye Feng hopes most now is that the Cavaliers or Magic can beat the Celtics to advance to the finals. As long as they don't face the Celtics, the championship is almost in their pocket.
