Chapter 230 230. See Black Eight Again!

The first round of the Lakers playoffs is over, and the games of other teams are still in progress.

Except for the Lakers and Heat who swept their opponents in the first round of this year's playoffs, they settled the game in twos and threes. It was easy for the Blazers to lead the Rockets 3 to 1. The other five series played so anxiously.

The Spurs and Grizzlies, who took the lead in the game, scored 3-2.

The Spurs suddenly broke out in the last quarter of their second home game and took away the game, but lost in the third game and were led by the Grizzlies 2-1. Just when everyone thought that the Spurs would fall on the Grizzlies again this year, the fourth In the last game, they suddenly broke out again in the away game, beating the Grizzlies 127 to 100 and snatching back the home court advantage.

Immediately after returning to San Antonio to play Tianwangshan, the two teams had a defensive battle. The Spurs returned to the old tactics of ten years ago, using the defensive system formed by Duncan and Leonard to fight against the Grizzlies. In the end, the Spurs relied on In the last 5 minutes, there was a sudden run and bombing, and a wave of 15-6 scoring shocks took the game away, turning the score into 3-2.

The game between the Thunder and the Warriors was equally anxious.

Westbrook should really rest this year. The injury is not yet complete. He is obviously holding Durant back. He is a point guard who needs a lot of ball possession. The way he leads the team is to break through with the ball. Divide the ball, but he obviously can't play the role of attracting double-teams this year. After breaking through, he can only make a strong mid-range shot. Mark Jackson grasped this point and blocked his connection with his teammates. Durant and Ku Even if Li Biao points, he still has to worry about not being able to catch the ball.

Westbrook wanted to prove himself too much, but his knees really couldn't support him to make the same impact as before. Fortunately, Ibaka came back from the line of fire, supported the inside of the Thunder, and grabbed the rebound that Westbrook missed. The Thunder did not fall into a big disadvantage.

After 4 games, it is clear that the Thunder team is much stronger than the Warriors, but the score is 2-2.

The game between the Blazers and the Rockets was basically a game of pressure. Lillard and Harden were basically a pair, canceling each other out, but Aldridge was a BUG. After four games, he averaged 41 points and 13 rebounds per game. After the explosion, if Harden hadn't exploded in the second game and got 26 free throws to send Aldridge off, it is estimated that the Rockets would have been swept.

The playoff situation in the East is also very different. The Heat easily swept the Bobcats 4-0 to advance to the second round. Although the Wizards ranked fifth, they are actually stronger than the Bulls, leading 3-1 easily.

Like the West, there are two teams in the East with obvious advantages, and the other two series are extremely anxious.

The Pacers, who ranked No. 3 in the East, were suppressed by the Knicks' barefoot and unafraid of wearing shoes. After five games, the Knicks grabbed home court advantage 2-[-] in the away game of Tianwangshan.

Zen master agreed not to interfere with the team's play style, but when he saw Anthony's sincere and firm eyes in the office, he changed his mind and sat behind the Knicks bench to make suggestions and help the Knicks seize the initiative.

The game between the Nets and the Raptors was much more interesting. It can be said that it was a full-time scolding battle.

Lowry and Garnett got involved. Lowry said that the Nets were unprofessional and deliberately lost to find their opponents. Instead of excuses, Garnett replied directly, "I just bully you weak."

This is great. Everyone in the Raptors is in a state of fury. They have won two games when people are not optimistic. They are behind 2 to 3. Obviously, they are going to fight the Nets to the end.

……

"Let me just say, Kobe's arena is much better than mine. You all ran to my house, but you didn't come to Kobe's place." After speaking, Liu Ren took a sip of the cocktail made by a professional bartender, showing his enjoyment. expression.

Kobe is so rich, there are more than a dozen Filipino maids at home, and there are bartenders specially invited from nightclubs in the arena. You only need to order, and everything will be done well. What you want to eat and what you want to play It's all arranged.

"Do we dare to tell Kobe to play at his house? I heard that apart from you and Paul, he has never invited any teammates to his house." Nick Young retorted.

"That's right, the sun really came out from the west today, and Kobe actually invited us to dinner at home..." Nash agreed.

Kobe was embarrassed on the sidelines. He would not tell others because there was no Fisher in the team, so there was no need to worry about accidents.

"Ahem, if you're bored, go to training! The Warriors and the Thunder will continue to play for a long time, so don't lose your form!" Kobe shouted angrily after coughing twice, and fled to the court to practice by "leading by example". ball.

Liu Ren ate some food and devoted himself to training. Since the series between the Warriors and the Thunder might be dragged to Game [-], the Lakers would have to wait at least four or five days. He should have been quite free.

But when it came time to take a break, he didn't have the time to be free, and the major sponsors all pointed at him to make time for publicity.

His signature Nike shoes are selling very well, and he needs to do a publicity campaign to make the fire even hotter. Both Spalding basketball and the tavern he has invested in need him to make an appearance, although it is not a very tiring job. , It is enough to drive a car to take pictures, but it is time-consuming.

So he will focus on training for the rest of the time, and can't let himself relax during the few days of rest.

……

Time will not stop for anything, and the playoffs are progressing steadily. After the Lakers and the Heat entered the second round first, other series are also slowly winning or losing.

The first is the Knicks. They returned home in the sixth game with the momentum of winning the battle of Tianwangshan, and they played against the Pacers.

Zen Master is much better than Mike Woodson, who is only suitable for being an assistant coach. He caught the Pacers center Hibbert's slow footsteps and weak strength, and made adjustments that stunned all fans and the media, starting with Anthony. The center, partnered with Stoudemire inside, and used Tim Hardaway Jr., Shumpert and JR-Smith on the back line to play a super-fast offense.

Although Anthony is only [-] meters, he is stronger than Hibbert!The little melon is no longer a little melon, but a fat melon!

The tall and soft Hibbert couldn't hit Anthony in the paint, and he couldn't keep up on the defensive end, so he could only keep running back and forth on the court.

When it came time to rotate the lineup, Chandler made up for the shortcomings of the Knicks' lack of internal strength in the previous few games, and instead made their internal substitutes super strong!A center who had just won the best defensive player played as a substitute. The defensive pressure overwhelmed Scola and Mahinmi!

The Zen master suddenly changed and put the Pacers coach Frank under his feet!
The sixth game became the Pacers' last game of the season. The Knicks beat the Pacers 102-89 at home to enter the second round, creating the sixth black-eight miracle in NBA history!
