On April 19, the games that started on the same day had a total of 4 games, two each in the East and West, West: Los Angeles Clippers 10895 Utah Jazz, Sacramento Kings 98107 Los Angeles Lakers, East: New Jersey Nets 10996 Milwaukee Bucks, Indiana Pacers 100103 Boston Celtics.

If, according to the ranking of the regular season, there is an upset game in the east and west, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Sacramento Kings away from home, which is not an upset, the Los Angeles Lakers did not perform well in the regular season this season, but no one will underestimate them, they can only be regarded as normal play in this game, the Sacramento Kings should be ranked fourth in the West according to the record, but due to the rules of the league, they won one less game, but because of the division, they became third in the West, In this regard, it can only be said that their luck is too bad.

The Indiana Pacers, who are third in the East, lost at home to the sixth-ranked Boston Celtics, which is an upset, but the difference in strength between several playoff teams in the East is not obvious, winning or losing is normal, this season's playoffs, the league has been restructured, and the first round of the playoffs has also been changed to a best-of-seven system.

On April 20, the last four games also began, West: San Antonio Spurs 9686 Portland Trail Blazers, Dallas Mavericks 9896 Minnesota Timberwolves, Detroit Pistons 9499 Washington Wizards, Philadelphia 76ers 9890 New Orleans Pelicans.

On this day's game, there was a real upset, the Washington Wizards, the eighth in the East, defeated the Detroit Pistons, the first in the East, away from home, allowing people to see the possibility of the Black Eight, the Washington Wizards, the more mature Jermaine O'Neal on the inside, and Michael Jordan, the basketball god on the outside, their lineup is in the East, and it is definitely a strong team, but due to various internal reasons of the team, their regular season record is not good, but I didn't expect that in the first game of the playoffs, they broke out a big upset.

Local time, on April 21, the national media gave all the limelight to the Washington Wizards, the media was frantically shouting about the Black Eight Miracle, fans were expecting Michael Jordan to create a miracle again, of course, the Detroit Pistons are not a soft persimmon, the basketball style here is itself known for its toughness, the former Detroit Bad Boys Army has also swept the NB, Bill Lang Beal is the biggest villain in NB history.

On this day, the Los Angeles Clippers played again, defeated the Utah Jazz at home 10895, and took a 20-lead lead, for this result, no one was surprised, the Los Angeles Clippers have such strength, they faced the dying Utah Jazz, still maintained two sets of lineups to play, in the final stage of the game, just physically, they had the absolute upper hand, they played very stable throughout the game, and did not give the Utah Jazz any chance.

On the same day, the Sacramento Kings 11991 Los Angeles Lakers, the two teams played to 11 in a total score, the New Jersey Nets 8588 Milwaukee Bucks, the New Jersey Nets also lost to the opponent at home, so that the big score came to 11, the Indiana Pacers 8977 Boston Celtics, the big score of the two sides, brought to 11, after the end of the day's game, only the Los Angeles Clippers took the lead with an absolute advantage, and the other teams were all tied on the big score.

On April 22, the San Antonio Spurs 8476 Portland Trail Blazers, with a big score of 20 leads, the Dallas Mavericks 99103 Minnesota Timberwolves, the big score of 11, the Detroit Pistons 8977 Washington Wizards, the big score of 11, the Philadelphia 76ers 9085 New Orleans Pelicans, the big score of 20.

The Washington Wizards, who have always been optimistic about the potential of the Black Eight, also lost the game away from home, making the two teams tied, the Indiana Pacers and the Boston Celtics also began a tug-of-war, overall, this season's playoffs are much more exciting than in previous years, and there are not many one-sided games.

Fans prefer to watch a close matchup, so the first round of the Los Angeles Clippers playoffs, the ratings are not high, they only took four games, swept the Utah Jazz with 40, ended the first round of the playoffs early, and became the first team to enter the second round, and at this time, all the other first-round battles are not over.

Sacramento Kings 22 Los Angeles Lakers, this series between the two teams is unexpectedly good-looking, the Princeton tactic is actually a variant of the triangle tactic, the two teams are very similar in terms of playing style, so that this series also starts, and it becomes evenly matched.

New Jersey Nets 22 Milwaukee Bucks, four games later, the two teams tied again, Indiana Pacers 13 Boston Celtics, back to the home of the Boston Celtics, the Boston Celtics in the cheers of the home fans, two games in a row, made a match point, as long as one more game wins, the Boston Celtics will be the black six, enter the second round of the playoffs.

Then, in the game on the second day, the San Antonio Spurs 40 Portland Trail Blazers became the second team to enter the second round of the playoffs, the Dallas Mavericks 22 Minnesota Timberwolves, it turns out that the small ball tactics still have a big weakness in the playoffs, and the Dallas Mavericks, who were full of scenery in the regular season, were caught by the Minnesota Timberwolves on the defensive weaknesses and forced to tie.

Detroit Pistons 22 Washington Wizards, this is a very interesting game, the performance of the Washington Wizards has fluctuated greatly, a good and a bad one, people are frightened, but the Detroit Pistons have been playing very tenacious, especially Richard Hamilton, in front of the old club Washington Wizards, playing very resolutely, the competition between the two teams continues, will there be a black eight miracle? We have to wait for more.

Philadelphia 76ers 31 New Orleans Pelicans, there is not much suspense in this series, after the New Orleans Pelicans returned to their home court, although they won a home game, but it was only that the time of death was slowed down, and the Philadelphia 76ers, who had already won the match point, were obviously better in terms of team strength. To be continued.
