"The Lakers have won two in a row at home, which is very good."

"Bryant saved the first game, and Shaq killed the second."

California has entered May, and even the Suns have become more dazzling, but this still can't resist the enthusiasm of fans to discuss American professional basketball. If North Carolina is the heart of the NCAA, then Los Angeles is equally important for MLS. Regardless of the number of fans, the fanatical love of basketball, and the spending power are among the best in American professional basketball.

"Did you watch the game between the Jazz and Houston?"

"No, then you have to take a good look, the two sides are currently drawing 1-1, and the outcome of this round of the series is difficult to predict."

While the Lakers won two in a row at home, Houston traveled to the Utah Plateau and fought two games on the home court of the Jazz.

This is the first group of historic teams to appear in the American professional basketball team this year, which has attracted a lot of attention and heated discussions. Whether it is the Lakers vs. the SuperSonics in the West, or the Bulls vs. the Atlanta Hawks on the East side, or the Heat vs. the Knicks, they all bring far less influence than the playoffs of Houston and Jazz.

Just looking at the number of stars is pretty straightforward, Houston has Olajuwon, Barkley, Drexler, Jim Jackson. The Jazz have this year's new MVPs Karl Malone, Stockton, Hornacek.

The line-ups of both teams on paper can be called Galaxy Battleships.

Although Houston was caught off guard by Kevin Johnson when he met the Suns in the first round, the veterans who gradually regained their form in this round of the series still reaped the victory in the end. Even though Kevin John's talent is the best thing to turn the sky around, he still can't compete with these superstars in Houston.

Houston, who has regained its competitive form, is the strongest team in the league to start in this era where interior is king. They have an inside combination of two superstars, which can be called a Buddha blocking and killing the Buddha and killing the gods. Coupled with the group of outside forwards with an average height of around 2 meters, Houston has become the most likely team to win the championship.

Many players are imagining how Kobe Bryant and Jordan will fare against a Houston team that has built a roster system entirely for them. When Houston traded Jim Jackson on a season-hiatus basis, their interior and exterior defensive pairings were perfect for defensive forwards.

There is Olajuwon on the inside, and even Jordan and Kobe Bryant dare not easily challenge Olajuwon's interior defense. The three outside line have very different styles and characteristics, but they all have high height and strong confrontation swing people, who can take turns to consume the physical energy that oppresses Jordan and Kobe, block their shots, and let them only choose to break through. And once you choose to break through, there will be Olajuwon and other tall players in rotation to attack.

Such a defensive system is the grave of all the top swingmen in the league! If the Lakers and Bulls' two standout outside scorers fall into the cage of Houston's defensive system, Houston can easily win the game thanks to the offensive advantage of multiple superstars.

Houston's defense didn't show much in the first round, and it was even a bit embarrassing. That's because Kevin Johnson is a nightmare for big defenders who can easily break through any defender on the perimeter in Houston. Then he finished before Olajuwon's wandering bag arrived. A small player like Kevin Johnxun is Houston's dead end.

In the second round, Stockton's play also became the key to whether the Jazz could win.

In the first game, Stockton and Malone's blocking and pick-and-roll tactics played vigorously. With the Jazz's Devils home court bonus, Houston didn't get used to it throughout the first half. The low pressure of the plateau, the Jazz's physical defensive style, and the tidal wave of Stockton and the new MVP suppressed Houston without breathing.

Houston's offensive and defensive rhythm didn't find until the second half, but it was too late by this time, and Stockton, who was getting more and more comfortable, sorted out the Jazz's entire offense, and even in the second half, Olajuwon and Barkley took turns taking over the game, and the score was still maintained at about 10 points.

G1: Houston 87:98 Jazz. Stockton had 21 points and 12 assists, and Malone had 27 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists.

Olajuwon had 21 points, 13 rebounds and 3 blocks, and Barkley had 19 points and 10 rebounds.

In the second game, Houston pulled one back at the home court of the Jazz.

It was Drexler who stepped up this time, although Houston's defensive system was of little use against the Jazz. But their height advantage can still be realized in the offense, and Drexler's defender is Brian Russell. Drexler had 17 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists in just half a game on his head.

The Jazz's weakness is still outside defense, and this shortcoming has begun to be seen by more and more people. Even though the Jazz have the best defensive team level of Stockton, his defensive influence is limited to small guards, and in the face of Lakers and Houston without traditional small guards, Stockton does not say block ball carriers, and he can't even fully guarantee that he will not become an offensive gap. Stockton, who consumes too much energy on the defensive end, is not brave in the first game on the offensive end, scoring only 7 points and 8 assists in the whole game.

G2: Houston 101:93 Jazz. Drexler had 27 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists, and Olajuwon had 18 points, 16 rebounds and 6 blocks.

Malone scored a game-high 31 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists, and was powerless.

The western side is in full swing, and the eastern side is also vigorous!

Lost! The invincible Chicago Bulls lost to the Atlanta Hawks at home in G2, Chicago!

No one thought that the Atlanta Hawks, as a civilian team, would be able to defeat the Pistons 3-2 and win a victory at the Bulls' home court to equalize the score! Steve Smith had 27 points, Murchibreroke had 26 points, Uncle Mu had 19 points and 15 rebounds, and Leitner had 18 points. 4 people smashed the bull's defense!

Jordan, on the other hand, was unexpectedly in a slump, scoring only 27 points, 16 rebounds and 6 assists on 12-of-29 shooting. Every time Jordan rebounds and double-doubles, it means that he is playing very hard! But I still lost!

Atalanta and Wilkens made headlines straight after this game.

Although it was only one game, even if they lost all of them, the Eagles were enough to prove themselves.

The confrontation between the Heat and the Knicks is a confrontation between iron and blood, and Ewing and Oakley against Mourning and PJ Brown!

There are strong men on both sides!

G1 Knicks 88-79 Heat. Alan Houston had 27 points and Ewing had 24 points and 16 rebounds.

Hardaway had 21 points and Mourning had 20 points and six rebounds. It can be said that in this game, the Knicks relied on the play of the stars to win the game. Ewing proved himself to be old and strong, and Alan Houston made a name for himself.

G2 Knicks 84:88 Heat. The game between the two sides was scorching for a whole time, and the collision and defense between meat and meat were the main theme.

In the end, Tim Hardaway took over the game strongly in the final quarter, scoring 34 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists to take away the victory. None of the other players in the game scored 20 points, and the win also gave Tim Hardaway some convincing first-team scores.
