I’m Really Playing Basketball

   Chapter 433 Love Me Mai and Xiao Zhan

  As a team with 73 wins in the regular season this season, the Bucks were eliminated by the Bobcats led by Chen Xiao and caused a great sensation.

  Like O’Neal and the Suns, they swept the Los Angeles Clippers 4-0 early in the first round. O’Neal and the Suns are now waiting for the results of the Los Angeles Lakers and Memphis Grizzlies.

In the first round of the playoffs, the most intense game played in the West was the fourth Timberwolves against the fifth Dallas Mavericks. The Timberwolves led by Garnett and the Mavericks led by Nowitzki played in the first round of the playoffs. It was dim for a while.

  In the end, the Dallas Mavericks still won the Tianwang Mountain.

   In addition to this duel between the Mavericks and the Timberwolves, the duel between the Lakers and the Grizzlies was also quite fierce.

  Ke boss and Ji boss, the two former teammates and current opponents, met in the playoffs, shouldn’t they have a winner?

The performance of   Kee in the postseason playoffs is definitely a return to the top level.

So after five games between the Lakers and the Grizzlies, the Lakers only led the Grizzlies 3 to 2. The 3 to 1 did not become 4 to 1 but became 3 to 2. The boss of Kee was super superb in the fifth game. NS.

  After the Bobcats and the Bucks, they just ended the game with the Grizzlies. Some lazy Lakers defeated the Grizzlies in the G6 game almost like a chicken.

In this G6 game, Kobe made 20 of 35, 5 of 8 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, and scored 50 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists in the game. Finally, he led the Lakers to eliminate the Grizzlies, the boss of Kebei. Team.

  The boss played quite well in this game, 9 of 14 and 13 of 13 free throws. The game scored 31 points and 14 assists.

  It can be seen from this game that the two are still separated.

  Ki boss wants the boss of science can’t give it.

  The base boss that the science boss needs can only provide part of it.

  So the two are really husky together, and lion and wolf.

  The reason why the boss and the Lakers played so hard in this game, of course, was because the Bobcats eliminated the Bucks' butterfly effect.

  Let’s put it this way, the 73-win Bucks this season puts a lot of pressure on all teams in the league. Although many teams in the league did not make any effort in the regular season this season, it was 73 wins!

  In the history of the NBA, when have you seen a team with such a record?

  And the Bucks are not only excellent records, but the five small tactics are also really difficult to play.

  In this case, many people actually think that this season is really the Year of the Bucks.

  Since this season is the year of the Bucks, it doesn’t matter if you fish yourself a little, right?

   Anyway, just take your time, don’t worry, and wait for the situation to change.

  But, I really didn’t expect that the current situation changed so rapidly that the waists of many teams flashed.

  For example, the three best teams in the West, the Spurs, the Suns and the Lakers.

  These three teams are the second-tier teams in the league this season, second only to the Bucks. These three teams and the other five teams in the East are also called the ‘Lu Xia Ba Zi’.

  Now that the deer are gone, don’t they have the opportunity to have a horoscope!

Under this circumstance, let alone the Lakers who can easily advance, mainly in the promotion and running-in, even the Eastern Magic and Nets, Cavaliers and Raptors, if they can advance quickly, the four teams actually want to be fast. A little promotion.

  Just, obviously, the four teams need to wait.

  Because the third opponent of the Magic in the East is the Nets, and the fourth opponent of the Raptors in the East is the Cavaliers.

  Neither of their opponents can play well.

  For the Magic and the Nets, the Magic’s outside players headed by Tracy McGrady were all destroyed by the Nets in this series.

  The outside line of the Nets is really strong!

   Joe Johnson, Carter, Richard Jefferson, Marion, Martin...

  Let’s put it this way, if Joe Johnson is replaced by Ray Allen, the Nets are invincible.

  The five-forward Nets did not find a good coach, and did not combine all the power of the five forwards, otherwise this team would definitely be a super strong team in the league.

   But even if you don't fully display the strength of your five forwards, the Nets' combat effectiveness is definitely not to be underestimated.

Although the Magic has Duncan's inside advantage, the Nets' defensive rotation is even faster than the Bucks, and every player has good defensive ability. Although Duncan's offense is more concise and quicker than Randolph's offense, let's be honest. , Duncan's offensive ability is not easy to hit the Nets.

  So this round of the series is really grinding!

  It is difficult for two teams to score more than 90 points in a game.

  Of course, although this round of the series is not covered by the Bobcats and Bucks series, it is not very popular, but this round of the series is extremely enjoyable!

  The other set of duels in the first round of the Eastern Conference, Nash and Milicic, Josh Smith, Lagarbelle, Pippen Paterson, the Raptors and the Cavaliers led by James also played very well.

  Both teams can run very well. At the same time, both teams have their own problems.

  The problem with the Raptors is that Nash is always a defensive weakness. In this round of the series, James really brought the lineups of Brent Barry, Mo, Korver and Chandler crazy pick-and-rolls to beat Nash.

  As the king of the pick-and-roll, Zhan, this round of the series really caught Nash and threw up Nash.

  Because the current Xiao Zhan is not focusing on business, he began to practice shooting. His strength is stronger than the 2006 Xiao Zhan in history. He is definitely not the James who even Barea dared not play.

  On the Cavaliers side, it is still an old problem.

  The team's center offensive ability is not very strong. Chandler and Jen’s pick-and-rolls are powerful, but they are not as powerful as Nash and Milicic’s pick-and-rolls.

  Moreover, the Cavaliers have to maintain a lineup of one star, three shots and one boxing champion on the court, which puts too much defensive pressure on Xiao Zhan and boxing champions.

  Mo, Korver and Barry’s defenses are actually quite average.

  So, Xiao Zhan played in this series is very, very tired.

   Therefore, these two matchups were the same as the Timberwolves playing the Mavericks in the West. In the end, after six games, they both played 3 to 3.

  This level of intensity, it's almost impossible.

  The fiercest of these three sets of fierce duel is of course the Raptors and Cavaliers this round.

  On May 6, 2006, the Magic and the Nets took the lead in the tie-break.

  Orlando, the locker room of the Magic. The Magic, who is preparing for a tie-break with the Nets, is receiving the final injection of chicken soup from the team's head coach Dogrives.

   "Guys, the Bucks have been eliminated. Wonder Boy is now on the Bobcats again. This season, this is our chance to win the final championship!"

  Because the Bucks were eliminated, the head coach of the Magic recently, Dougryves, was really like a chicken blood.

   Quite excited.

  Because after the Bucks were eliminated, the most promising is the Magic.

  After Chen Xiao left the Cavaliers, the Magic was the most promising team before the start of the season.

  It's just that this team's performance in the regular season this season is a bit disappointing.

   However, even so, compared to the Heat and Spurs Suns, the Magic team is still the most championship-like.

  After all, they really won the championship!

  As long as McGrady can be healthy, McGrady + Duncan + Ginobili is indeed quite invincible.

  It’s just that, playing the Nets in the first round is still too tiring for the Magic.

  Seven games, every game is tough, every game is huge consumption.

  Especially for Magic outside players such as McGrady.

  So, for Tracy McGrady, who was injured in the playoffs before, being able to stay healthy throughout the series is also questionable.

  However, this is the future. Let’s say that at the moment, the Magic and the Nets are in the tie-break of this round of the series. The Magic still have a very difficult victory over their opponents at home 97-91.

  In this game, Maizi had the best performance of the series, 11 of 23, 2 of 5 three-pointers, 6 of 9 free throws, 30 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists.

  This is a real spell.

  The whole game lasted 48 minutes.

  You know, McGrady is facing Carter, Marion, Richard Jefferson and Joe Johnson in this game.

In fact, Dougreeves didn’t want Mai to play the game, but all of the Nets’ starters were players with excellent offensive and defensive performances over 2 meters. There are not many such players in the Magic that can match the points. Ginobili and Parker are. Very good, but not right, Turkoglu can barely match.

  The only outside line that can completely hit the layup is McGrady.

  If McGrady goes down, Duncan’s pressure will be too great, and maybe he will be caught and beaten by the Nets, which will lead to a foul crisis.

  So in this round of the series, wheat is defending the opponent's sharp knife on the defensive end. Whoever feels good, who is in good shape, who is defending, and who also protects Duncan.

  Only Maizi can do this.

  So, after 7 games in the entire series, Maizi averaged 46 minutes per game, which was longer than Chen Xiao's (Chen Xiao only played 3 quarters in one game).

Moreover, Maizi is not simply standing on the court, defending against sharp knives, but also to defend Duncan. At the same time, the offense must be the main attack. Facing the Nets' five super defensive front lines, Maizi's offense has an advantage. After all, , Maizi's tall and hand captain is the same as Chen Xiao, and he can draw it from the start, and no one can prevent it.

  So, in this round of the series, there is no problem with saying that wheat is tired and becoming a dog.

  Distressed my Mai...

  This is also the reason why many people worry about whether Maizi's body can survive.

  Playing in the Nets, this round of the series is really too difficult.

  After the Magic finished playing the Nets, I felt that I might as well play the Bucks.

  It can only be said that the Magic in the regular season has not been able to compete for the second place in the Eastern Conference. This is a great disadvantage.

  They and the Nets have been shopping here for 7 games, and the Heat have already easily advanced 4-1.

  After the Magic were promoted, the next day, the Timberwolves and Mavericks' tie-break results were also released.

  In the end, the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Timberwolves 120 to 114 at home.

  Garnett made 13 of 24 in this game, 22 free throws and 16 free throws. The game scored 43 points, 16 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks.

  Larry Hughes was 9 of 18 and scored 24 points.

  Caron Butler made 6 of 11, 2 of 4 three-pointers, 9 of 9 free throws and scored 23 points.

  Szebiak was 4 of 8 and 4 of 7 three-pointers and scored 12 points.

  David Lee scored 10 points in 4 of 9 games.

The starting player of the Timberwolves scored 111 points in this game.

  The Timberwolves team scored 114 points, that is to say, the Timberwolves' substitute scored 3 points in this game.

  The Mavericks on the opposite side scored 20 points...

  The gap is too big.

  In the end, Garnett led the Timberwolves back to the sky and lost to the driver-led Mavericks ~www.NovelMTL.com~ The Mavericks are indeed strong now.

  In history, the Mavericks are No. 1 in the Western Conference this season.

  In terms of overall strength, it is indeed stronger than Timberwolves. After all, Sprewell of Timberwolves leaves directly for free.

  Fortunately, Kassel has no loss for Butler.

  If the Timberwolves have madmen this season, chances are they can really pass the Mavericks.

  However, everyone thought that the Timberwolves, who must be a rookie, could have a good record this season.

  Chen Xiao thinks that his idol Garnett is very good this season.

  And on May 7, the tiebreaker that Chen Xiao and the Bobcats are most concerned about is of course the tiebreaker between the Cavaliers and the Raptors.

  The winner is the opponent of the Bobcats in the second round.

  And the final winners are... the Raptors and Nash.

  Looking at the TV with both hands clutching his jersey and wiping sweat, Xiao Zhan looked unwilling, Chen Xiao felt very distressed.
