Chapter 1744 The Playoffs Begin
The playoffs have begun, and Tang Qian is very used to this. For the NBA, it is because the NBA is in the United States.If the NBA is in another country, he will go to other countries to learn from it.It's just the highest basketball hall, nothing more.So he has never had any nostalgia for the Mi Empire. Regarding this aspect, he has always felt that the Taizu was right, and the imperialists will never die.Since it is sports, don't talk about politics. If you talk about it, it is not pure sports.Don't cover yourself with a sports shell, either.

The first flirt is cheap.

It's that simple.

The Lakers game was scheduled for the second day of the playoffs. On the first day, many teams decided the winner.For example, the Raptors defeated the eighth Wizards in the Eastern Conference without accident, but the trash brothers did not perform well in this game.Both DeRozan and Lowry performed averagely, with a maximum of only 17 points, and Lowry even recorded only 11 points.In terms of diving in the playoffs, the Raptors' outside superstar can definitely be ranked first.If it weren't for the Congo slugger Ibaka making a winning move tonight, then the Raptors might be cold in this game.Ibaka performed well tonight, scoring 23+13+2+2 data, while shooting more than 72% from the field and 75% from three-pointers.Yes, it was that scary, so in the end the Raptors beat the Washington Wizards 114-106.

Won the first victory.

At the same time, the high-profile game in the East, the Cavaliers VS Pacers, also began.They are fourth and fifth in the Eastern Conference this year.Tonight started with a fierce killing.In this game, the Pacers showed an extremely tough attitude as a dark horse.You have to know one thing, that is, before the Pacers, there was no national attention at all.If you think about it this season, how pitiful is just one live broadcast across the United States?Only his brethren in the playoffs, the Washington Wizards, have such miserable treatment.After George left, everyone felt that there was nothing good about this team.I feel that it is impossible to cause any major trouble to the Cavaliers.

You look at their roster, a bunch of mediocre guys and crap contracts, what's the salary cap for this year, remember? 9909 million dollars.As a result, look at it, the total team contract salary of the entire Pacers is only more than 9300 million US dollars.In other words, what is the poor ghost line this year? 8918.4 million US dollars.In other words, they have just surpassed the poor ghost line.This team is basically going to come here this year.As a result, it wasn't just a mess, they almost pulled the "Emperor off the horse" in this year's playoffs.

The fight was really impressive.

And it is such a group of players that no one is optimistic about. In this game, under the leadership of the African Panthers, they played a suffocating defensive basketball.Yes, defensive basketball.They kept testing the bottom line of the referee's whistle in this game, and then used it to frantically encircle LeBron James on the opposite side.Because everyone knows now that the Cavaliers are James' one-man team.Suppress him, and basically the Cavaliers will be cool.

After all, the entire tactical system of the Cavaliers is built around James, a group of shooters, but their offensive ability is not good.If No. 23 cannot pass the ball and feed the cake, then the team's offense will be paralyzed sooner or later.In fact, the game started from the first quarter, even if the winner was decided.Yes, it is that fast.Because the Pacers suppressed their opponents with a score of 33-14 in the first quarter.Still absolutely suppressed.James was caught by their defense and only scored 2 points in a single quarter.Still free throws.The hit rate in sports battles, all shots are hit with iron.Single quarter hit rate... 0%.

See what they do?What a classic.Tang Qian watched the highlight replay of this game for a while, and thought, oh shit, the Pacers learned the style of play of the Lakers last year very well.Not to mention the resemblance in spirit, at least six or seven points in shape.What do they use to restrain them?Look at some of the changes their head coach did McMillan.The defensive end is one, choke No. 23 LeBron James on the opposite side, and then try to expand the defense. If you can make up for the interference, just interfere.Anyway, they have to pinch their offensive starting point.Of course, it is not easy to do this, so their physical strength is very high, and it can even be said that it is not the physical strength that should be in this era. James was extremely uncomfortable when he came up in the first quarter.I don't know, I thought I was dreaming back to ten years ago, and I was fighting against Boston and Detroit.

On the offensive end, they played extreme fast push. In fact, the Pacers are a weak point this season. However, they can't hold back their decisive play tonight and their brave state tonight. The three armies are desperate.You have to know that the Pacers' original time and space score in this year's playoffs almost fell below 100 points.In this era, it is simply the offensive firepower of squeezing toothpaste.But in the first quarter, they did the opposite and caught the Cavaliers by surprise.Who knew that a team that didn't play very fast in the regular season would play crazy fast in the playoffs?Especially the African panther, Oladipo.A star who has always been considered a bit marginalized, the biggest honor so far is an All-Star substitute this year.Such a person, in the eyes of everyone, is an excessive product of the Pacers, but he led the team to the playoffs, still in fifth place.In this game, his three-point shooting percentage in the first quarter was as high as 75%. If you think about it, this Nima Curry can't catch up with the horse, okay?Where did James and the Cavaliers expect him to be so fierce?So under his leadership, the Pacers immediately opened up the score difference, leading the Cleveland Cavaliers by almost 20 points in the first quarter.At the same time, the Cavaliers made 0% of their three-pointers in this quarter.Yes, it is 0, not a single ball can go in.

And you have to know that the Cavaliers are a three-point team. In the past few years, they have been among the top shots in the league.Coupled with the worst defense in the history of the Cavaliers this season, it can be imagined.It's not surprising that it's like this.

Even if James stood up and scored 12 points in a single quarter in the second quarter, with a shooting percentage of more than 7%, it was still difficult to reverse the huge decline in the first quarter.In the first half, the Cavaliers only made a poor 14.3% of their three-pointers. Do you think they can still play?The Pacers made more than 50 percent of their 28.6-pointers in the first half.Even though their own feel declined in the second half, they still resolutely completed the task of defending James. In the second half, James shot 40%, which is completely black.The Cavaliers conceded almost 8 three-pointers in the game, but only scored 18 of them, and the shooting rate was so low that it was scary.In this game, the African Panthers Oladipo led the team to an [-]-point victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers.This made Tang Qian feel that after watching the game, let me go, James won't kneel in the first round this year.

That's really a pity.

Originally, I thought about joining forces with him in the finals.

PS: The situation has been bad in the past few days, and everyone knows it. In this regard, I think Mr. Yang is right. Write if you can, and don’t if you can’t.have nothing to say.Obey the arrangement.Then I wanted to write, but it was too dark, and there was nothing to say.
