On April 17, the first round of the playoffs was cut!
One of the most watched series is the Nuggets vs. Lakers.
Double MVP battle F4!
Experts believe that the Lakers will have a greater advantage. Most of their guesses are 4-2. The Lakers beat the Nuggets.
However, after comparing, I realized that double MVP is not that simple.
In the first six games, the two sides fought a 3-3 tie, each of which only kept their own home court. Li Nan and Jordan, who played with all their strength, actually pushed the incredible F4 to the tiebreaker!
In these six games, the two sides played equally and fiercely.
When the first game came up, 73-72, the Nuggets beat the Lakers by one point away.
This game is a chaos. Both sides played very fiercely and both wanted to give their opponents a blow. However, the two sides made too many mistakes and fouls, and the referee's whistle did not stop much. The hit rate of both sides is even more terrible.
In the whole game, the two sides were either hitting or on the way.
At the last minute, the Nuggets beat the Lakers with Li Nan's two free throws 1 point away.
Li Nan, 9 of 23, three points, 2 of 6, 13 of 13 free throws, scored a game-high 33 points, plus 6 rebounds, 8 assists, 5 steals, and 3 turnovers!
Jordan, 4 of 17, relying on 7 of 8 free throws, scored 16 points and 5 turnovers!
Mutombo, 4 of 11, 10 points, 16 rebounds, 5 blocks
Lakers,
Kobe, 4 of 19, 8 of 9 free throws, 17 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 7 steals, and 0 turnovers!
O'Neal, 7 of 17, 6 of 14 free throws, 20 points, 17 rebounds, 5 turnovers, 5 fouls.
Payton, 4 of 10, scored 11 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists.
Malone, 3 of 14, scored 7 points and 11 rebounds, 4 turnovers!
F4 scored 55 points together, lost to Li Nan + Jordan + Mutombo's 59 points.
.
In the second game, 84-90, the Lakers kept a home court.
Kobe played 45 minutes, shot 24 times, scored 40 points, and led the Lakers to keep the home court.
Inside, O'Neal only had 7 points and 6 rebounds and only 9 shots.
Malone and Payton continued to slump.
.
In the third game, the Denver Nuggets played at home.
90-110
The Lakers ate a sap as soon as they arrived at home in Denver.
Li Nan looked at 36 points, Jordan scored 30 points, and the two teamed up to kill F4 from afar.
.
However, soon, the Lakers found their way back in Game 4.
95-93
Karl Malone and Gary Payton broke out. The former scored 30 points and 13 rebounds, and the latter had 14 points, 8 rebounds and 9 assists in a triple-double.
Kobe scored 7, 16 points for 22, and O'Neal scored 6, 13 points for 11.
.
In the fifth game, the battle of Tianwangshan returned to Los Angeles.
97-78
Old Jordan broke out and scored 35 points. Li Nan scored a triple-double with 28 points, 10 rebounds and 14 assists.
.
In the sixth game, Denver Plateau is at home.
107-99
In the previous five games, Kobe did not cooperate many times, but today, Kobe finally left something temporarily.
Then, F4 showed great power and became completely different.
Kobe scored 30 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists and 3 steals in a triple-double.
O'Neal had 29 points, 15 rebounds and 4 blocks.
Malone had 20 points and Payton had 15 points.
The Lakers scored 94 points in F4, defeating the Nuggets' defense in one fell swoop, turning the big score into a 3-3 tie.
.
On May 2, the seventh game of the series moved to Los Angeles.
For this seventh game, experts have their own opinions.
Michael Wilbur of The Washington Post supported: "The Lakers!"
"When the regular season started this season, everyone had seen it. When F4 was really one-sided, their combat effectiveness was strong and no one could stop it. In the sixth game that ended before, Kobe deliberately Unintentionally sending a few wonderful passes also brought the Lakers back to the "peak". As long as they want, there is no opponent they can't beat. And the Nuggets, they can only rely on Lee, although Michael can help some, but, We have to admit that he is really old. As long as the Lakers limit the performance of other Nuggets players, there is no suspense in this game."
Sam Smith of the Chicago Tribune thinks: "Nuggets!"
"We will always support Michael's team. Michael is the of basketball. With him, there is the possibility of miracles. Moreover, Lee is also good at creating miracles. Although the rest of the Nuggets are really immature , But, with them two, we have confidence. And the Lakers, we have all seen this is a broken team. They just deal with things on the court. Their direct barrier is how impossible is it It can be eliminated. Now in the game, Kobe's shots are all 20+, and Shaq sometimes doesn't even have 10 shots. There is already a strong signal in this. I believe that this playoffs is over, the Lakers There must be big news~EbookFREE.me~Lacy Banks of The Sun thinks: "The Lakers will advance to the next round. "
"Kobe's'proactive show' in the sixth game is a signal. His self-esteem is as strong as Kobe, and he also made a compromise. This is what he wants to win! Isn't the goal of the OK combination to win the championship? , From 1996 to the present, 8 years! In 8 years, the Lakers have only reached two finals, not a championship! It must be scattered, but they all value and desire this championship very much. On the contrary, the Nuggets don’t have such strong ideas. Lee has 4 champions and 4 FMVPs, Michael has 7 champions and 7 FMVPs. The two are actually not so keen on championships. Take a look at the Nuggets' lineup this season , We know that the Nuggets actually don’t have any desire to compete for the title. Comparing the two, the Lakers want to win more, and you and them are naturally more determined. The victory in this game definitely belongs to the Lakers."
Kent McDill of the "Herald" supported the Nuggets before the series started.
"Nuggets!"
"Not only in this series, this year's championship is likely to be the Nuggets. Anyone who has watched the Nuggets regular season should know. How does the Nuggets play? The role players play first, the role If the players can't beat, if Michael plays again, if Michael can't, then Li will appear. This season, Li has won 10 times 50+ and 5 times 60+. These games, they all won! This game, Li will definitely Focus on scoring. I believe that the Lakers can't stop it at all. And the Lakers, to be honest, the Lakers management must have made certain decisions. We can see the distribution of the ball this season. The information in it. This way the team that is about to fall apart will not go far."
