The first round of the playoffs:
west:
Mavericks (1) vs. Suns (8), Spurs (4) vs. Lakers (5),
Nuggets (2) vs. Trail Blazers (7), Kings (3) vs Timberwolves (6),
east:
Nets (1) vs Magic (8), Pistons (4) vs 76ers (5),
Wizards (2) vs Celtics (7), Pacers (3) vs Hornets (6).
.
After a two-day break at the end of the regular season, the playoffs started one after another.
The Nuggets easily swept the Trail Blazers 4-0. There were no surprises in the process. On the contrary, it was easier and more enjoyable.
Throughout the series, the Nuggets averaged a margin of 24 points per game against the Trail Blazers, and each game became garbage time in the second half of the third quarter.
Li Nan's performance is very stable, averaging 25.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 6.5 assists. He hasn't made much effort yet, and he is not needed in the game. The teammate played too hard, he just needs to sit on the bench and watch.
In the other games, there were surprises and no dangers. The high-ranked teams defeated the low-ranked opponents.
east:
The 76ers led by Iverson were killed by a group of "grassroots" players.
After the game, Larry Brown and the 76ers officially announced a peaceful breakup!
The 76ers owner really likes Iverson. In the end, his choice was to keep Iverson and abandon the team's chief engineer Larry Brown.
Larry Brown hugged Iverson before leaving.
"Do it for yourself, kid."
Child, Iverson is still a child in the eyes of Larry Brown, a stubborn child.
Iverson looked forward to it for so many years, and finally squeezed Larry Brown away. However, after Larry Brown left, Iverson suddenly felt a little sad.
No one will care about him anymore, no one will care about him anymore.
"Oh~~~~"
.
The Magic team led by McGrady fought hard for 7 games and finally lost 3:4 to the No. 1 Nets in the East, and the Black Eight failed.
McGrady single-core led the team to the playoffs at the end of the regular season, and also crushed Li Nan by 0.4 points, Kobe 0.5 points, and Iverson 0.5 points, becoming the scoring champion this season.
Although unfortunately lost in the first round of the playoffs, McGrady's performance was still very good.
Averaged 34.5 points, 4 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game. McGrady saved the team several times at critical moments, otherwise the Magic would have been killed by the Nets 4-0.
But, in the end, two fists are hard to beat four hands. What's more, the Nets Kidd, Nowitzki, Kenyon Martin, Jefferson, the strength of the foursome is still a bit powerful.
Orlando fans still love McGrady.
However, Orlando fans are not satisfied with the management.
"We have the best shooting guard in the league, why can't we find a strong helper for Tracy?"
The Magic's management is also unspeakable.
Why didn't we find it, isn't Grant Hill a good helper?
However, I can't say this.
Are they going to force us to sell Grant?
But, who wants such a Hill?
It's really hard for the Magic to strengthen.
"Oh~~~"
There was another sigh.
.
The Pacers defeated the Hornets 4-0, and the Wizards also eliminated the Celtics 4-0.
In the regular season, the Wizards "mixed" with the Celtics. In the playoffs, the two sides also rubbed brilliant sparks.
Of course, it was the spark that the Wizards used experience to push the Celtics to the ground.
Jordan is not as fierce as 40+ during the regular season, but he used his experience to blow up the mentality of the head of the Celtics small forward Paul Pierce.
Before the start of the game, when Jordan shook hands with Pierce, he used Pierce's hand as a gripper without paying attention.
"Boy, you are still too young."
Pierce didn't score a goal, so Jordan said: "Boy, didn't you say it? This is your age now? But why are you still so useless?"
Jordan scored a goal on Pierce, and he aimed at Pierce in front of him: "You almost covered me, come on, boy."
The ubiquitous trash talk on the court made Paul Pierce unable to enter the game at ease.
And Jordan bullied him for a while, and Pippen came to him again. The two old guys joined forces, Pierce's mentality exploded in this series, completely lost himself.
The Celtics' core players performed poorly, but the Wizards had Yao Liang to stand up.
Yao Liang, a second-year student, played very confidently. He completely beat the Celtics insider Tony Barty in the paint.
With an average of 31 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists and 4.2 blocks per game, Yao Liang completely dominated the game.
Relying on Yao Liang's excellent performance in the interior, and relying on Jordan and Pippen's talk, the Wizards easily reached the second round of the playoffs.

west:
The Kings defeated the Timberwolves 4-0 ~EbookFREE.me~ without giving their opponents any chance.
The Mavericks defeated the Suns 4-2 to advance. The process was a bit thrilling, but the Mavericks still broke through.
Of course, Mavericks fans know that now is just the beginning. No one had too much hope for the Mavericks.
After all, the Mavericks are so violent at any time, no one dares to trust them too much.
.
The most amazing thing is the Spurs vs. Lakers game.
Many experts think the Lakers will defeat the Spurs. It turned out not to be!
The Spurs knocked out the Lakers 4-2 in the first round.
After the game, the media also came out to make trouble.
"38 shots? 37 points? Kobe like this is of no use to the Lakers."
"If Shaq doesn't practice free throws well, then he may just be the strongest center among people in his life. Without results, you are nothing. History will forget you!"
"The contradiction of the OK combination is already very obvious."
"After this season, the Lakers will definitely make a choice, Shaq or Kobe?"
The Lakers fans have begun to prepare for the rally and parade. Some support Kobe, some support O'Neal, and some feel that the management is incompetent and fail to find a better help for the OK combination.
More people are smiling from behind.
The OK combination, the strongest OK combination was KO by the little-known Spurs. This is definitely great news for other teams that have advanced to the second round.
