Chapter 309 Moving On
In the game between the Clippers and the Rockets, the Rockets were forced to the edge of a cliff and then pulled back a round.
The Rockets defended Griffin well in this game. They had a slight advantage at the beginning, and then maintained it until the end. The Clippers failed to grasp several opportunities to overtake.
It was the Rockets' substitute players who stabilized the situation. Jeremy Lin played well and scored 20+.
In fact, Jeremy Lin is also very good as the sixth man. His problem is that he is not stable enough.
From being undrafted with difficulty finding a job to Linsanity, who is well-known throughout the league, to now that the team is a bit disgusted, Jeremy Lin's mentality may have also been affected to a certain extent.
After all, he is different from Xiang Chu, and he doesn't have enough confidence.
In the fifth game between the Raptors and the Nets, Lowry broke out and scored 36 points, which gave the Raptors a big advantage at the beginning.
After reacting, the Nets continued to chase points under the leadership of Joe Johnson.
In the fourth quarter, the Nets played an extremely smooth offense and once caught up with the score.
But Lowry and DeRozan stabilized at the last moment and helped the Raptors win the match point.
The other teams that played indistinctly may have some special factors, but the strength of their group is really close, and professionals like Xiang Chu can't predict the direction of the game.
The time has entered May, and the sixth game of the first round has also begun. The opponents of the Nuggets' second round have not yet been determined.
Xiang Chu has also relaxed a little in the past few days, and interacted with fans on social media.
Relax while training hard, and he advises others to do the same.
There is another advantage of the days without competitions, that is, you can live at home every day, and you don’t need to fly or stay in a hotel. People are much more comfortable.
The Thunder, the second team in the West to end a battle, did a good job of defending the Blazers in Game [-].
In fact, after they found a way to limit Aldridge, they took advantage. They don't need to completely limit the opponent. As long as Aldridge only scores about 20 points per game, the Thunder will be much easier.
Aldridge can limit, but Durant basically has no solution, this is their confidence.
With Durant once again scoring the highest score in the game, the Trail Blazers regrettably lost.
The gap between the Blazers and the top teams in the West is actually defense, but Lillard has been growing since entering the league, and they are worth looking forward to next season.
The Spurs and Grizzlies tied at 3:3, and they were going to tie the game. This is something no one had thought before. This may be the charm of the playoffs.
Of course, many fans scolded the league for deliberately controlling the field, just wanting to play a few more games to make money.
The real strong teams scoff at this statement, and competitive sports must have strength to win.
The Grizzlies also had an X factor in winning the Spurs this time. Mike Miller played the most exciting individual performance in the playoffs, and the Spurs also lost a bit aggrieved.
The game between the Eastern Pacers and the Eagles was also a tiebreaker as many people predicted before the game.
The fans must have guessed based on the strength of the Pacers, but the game was actually very thrilling.
The Eagles took the lead until the last few minutes of the last quarter, almost pocketing the victory, but the Pacers Paul George and David West withstood the pressure and scored consecutively at the last moment, turning the score abruptly.
For the Eagles, Teague and Millsap played almost the whole game well, but they softened in the last 2 minutes. This may be the gap in the strength of the stars, and they were a little bit stunned.
On May 5, the Nuggets' opponents in the second round were finally determined.
The Clippers narrowly beat the Rockets through four quarters and entered the Western Conference semifinals.
The Clippers played well in this game. Paul, Griffin, Redick and Crawford worked hard to win the Rockets supported by Harden and Howard.
In terms of feeling, the Rockets actually have a chance, and their tactics did not bring out the strongest strength of the team.
In other words, their core players and lineup did not fit perfectly.
Playing the Clippers in the second round is not very ideal for the Nuggets, and the Clippers' lineup is more threatening to them.
But they will not be afraid. If they want to go further in the playoffs, they must step down one by one powerful opponents, no matter who they are.
In the sixth game between the Raptors and the Nets, Lowry, who had killed all sides in the previous game, felt cold. This time, the Nets had an early advantage and maintained it until the end.
The Nets changed their starting lineup this time, but it didn't actually affect the game.
The main reason is the outbreak of Joe Johnson and Pierce at the beginning, as well as the sluggishness of the Raptors.
In the second half, it was Deron who supported the situation, and the Raptors didn't get a chance to chase points at all.
The score of the two sides also became 3:3, and another set of tie-break games appeared.
At this time, the progress of the game has accelerated, and the three tie-breaks have started one after another.
The tiebreaker between the Spurs and the Grizzlies was completely different from what everyone imagined, and it was completely different from the previous six games.
It felt like the Spurs were fainting before, but they suddenly woke up in the tiebreaker.
They had an absolute advantage from the beginning of the game. GDP started with Parker, and all three played well.
In addition, Danny Green, Leonard, Mills, Diaw and other players also played with all players. Only this game can show that this is a contest between the second and seventh in the Western Conference.
They have a lot of people and strength, and the Grizzlies took half a day and the Spurs solved it with a three-pointer.
In fact, it is to control the rhythm. Xiang Chu can't understand why he didn't do it before. Maybe it's because the old players need to relax first.
The life-and-death battle between the Eagles and the Pacers is also different from the previous games.
The Pacers also showed the aura of No. [-] in the East at this time, preventing the Eagles from being able to move an inch on the offensive end.
On the Pacers side, Paul George scored 30+11, and the audience was unstoppable.
With the addition of defense and star effect, and complete suppression on rebounds, there is no suspense for the Pacers to win.
Looking at the comparison of the combat power of the two sides, I don't know how they reached the seventh game.
The only thing that looks like a tiebreaker is the Raptors vs. Nets.
The two teams entangled from beginning to end, and the whole army fought with their lives until the last second.
In this game, no one has performed exceptionally well, and no one has performed sluggishly. The two sides are fighting against each other.
The Nets took the lead by relying on the performance of the bench in the first half, but only by single digits.
In the third quarter, neither side took advantage. In the final quarter, Lowry and DeRozan led the Raptors desperately chasing points.
In the last few seconds, the Raptors also caught up to only 1 point, and steal the opponent to get the ball.
At the critical moment, Pierce showed a strong psychological quality and blocked the shot. As a result, the Nets became the last lucky ones to enter the second round of the playoffs.
The second round of the playoffs will start with the Nuggets and Clippers.
Denver, the Pepsi Center gymnasium, there was a lot of voices, and Xiang Chu moved towards the top of the mountain again.
This time, he will definitely go further.
