In the life-and-death battle between the Clippers and the Warriors, both sides gave full play to their respective advantages.

However, it was the Clippers who had the last laugh, and Jordan Jr.'s winning block + dunk proved that it is safer to repair both inside and outside than to block the outside line with a full mood.

'I feel like after all that's been going through it, the team needs this win. Chicken Soup coach Doug Rivers said after the game, "It's been a difficult week, and it feels like two months. Now all we need to do is smile, laugh, laugh and I'm very proud of our players. ”

In the last game between the Spurs and the Mavericks, GDP broke out in the first half, directly leading the Mavericks by more than 20 points, and that relaxed appearance seemed to be a fake game before.

They didn't give the Mavericks any chances in the second half either, with spoiler Monta Ellis completely strangled by the Spurs.

The best thing about the Spurs is that they increase the defensive intensity without affecting the offense.

The only one in the tie-break was the Nets, Joe Johnson was as efficient as ever, Pierce made a fatal block in the final moments, and the Nets eliminated the Raptors 104-103.

"I was just in the right place at the right time," Pierce said, "and I saw him get rid of defenders and I stepped forward to cover it. My hand touched the ball - the game was over. ”

The Heat waited for several days, and the opponent for the next round was finally decided, and that was the Nets.

The Heat are also familiar with the Nets, and basically came up with targeted tactics in an instant.

Watching the game during this time, the coaching staff didn't sit and wait.

The first round of the second round was played by the Pacers and the Wizards, Hibbert had a hard game and then ate a snack, and Paul George was also very uncomfortable with Ariza's defense, so the Wizards once again went down and won a hard away game.

The Wizards made the playoffs for the first time in 2008 and were pleasantly surprised by their performance.

"Let me calm down and think about it, I'm 20 now, I've made the playoffs, I've achieved some of my dreams, so why not embrace it?" Bill, who scored in double figures in the final quarter, excitedly said after the game, "Why don't you take on a higher challenge and make yourself happier?" That's what I'm doing right now, it's a lot of fun. ”

Despite losing a home advantage, George has a lot of confidence in his team, "We can't put ourselves behind, we have to play a better game and the start of the class is the same. George said.

In the game between the Thunder and the Clippers, Paul had a burst of hands, hitting eight three-pointers in a row to set a new personal record, which also made the Thunder's defense feel desperate, because Paul is best at passing, and being able to cut points and assist is equal to doubling the Clippers' offensive power.

"When a person's touch reaches this point, all you need to do is flash to the side and let him keep firing." Griffin got a game after the game.

The Clippers' victory was not only a tidal wave of offense, but they also did a good job of limiting the double less.

But obviously, taking down the Thunder is not something that can be done with a big victory.

On May 6, the energetic Heat finally welcomed their second-round opponent at home.

Unlike the Bobcats, the old guys of the Nets have seen big scenes, and they don't know how much energy they will burst out at that time, so the Heat must crush them hard.

The current lineup of the Nets is already the strongest lineup except for Lopez, who is still not back.

And like the Heat, it's one big and four small.

Joe Johnson plays three, guards are Deron and Livingston, Pierce plays four against James, and Garnett sits inside.

There has been no change in the main lineup of the Heat, and everyone has adjusted to the best condition.

At the beginning of the game, the Nets made James miss with a successful defense, and they came menacingly, as if the first-round battle of seven games did not affect the physical strength.

Pierce, in particular, is always the strongest against James.

However, the Heat quickly adjusted, no matter how excited Pierce was, the years were unforgiving, and he and James already had a gap in strength.

If the Nets want to rely on Pierce to get James alone, that's impossible.

The Heat took James as a starting point and played very team basketball, and the ball was always able to pass to the open space.

The Nets, on the other hand, could not prevent the emergence of empty spots.

Zhang Xiaotian also received a pass from James and hit a three-pointer, but his main focus now is on defense, Joe Johnson, the opponent's first point, he must try to limit it.

Even if it can't be completely restricted, it will consume a lot of money.

Joe Johnson was not very comfortable with Zhang Xiaotian's defense, always having to fight physically when he was off the ball, and he complained to the referee a few times.

But Zhang Xiaotian's defensive moves have been polished for two seasons, and he is no longer so prone to fouls.

Overall, Joe Johnson is having a hard time receiving the ball comfortably right now.

After receiving the ball, it was difficult for Zhang Xiaotian to restrain it, but it was not so easy to catch the ball, and he made Joe Johnson play hard.

The Nets' defense was also very targeted, and everyone didn't get many good chances in the first half, the Heat led by 3 points, the Big Three all pressed the opposing players, even Bosh rebounded over Garnett, Delon had a slight advantage in the No. 1 position, and Joe Johnson also performed on the offensive end, but the Heat were in control of the situation in the first half.

At the beginning of the second half, the Heat's defense was further strengthened, but the Nets couldn't increase the intensity.

Originally, their physical strength was not as good as that of the Heat, and they had just grabbed seven for a short time, so they definitely couldn't keep up with the Heat.

Under the Heat's defense, they can score on two strong points.

And it's not certain that Joe Johnson can stick to the end with this strong point, even if he can maintain efficiency all the time, his efficiency today is not as good as the first round, and the Heat have already earned it with only Zhang Xiaotian's single defense.

When a team's first scoring point doesn't attract more defense, it gets tough on the offensive end, and the Nets can't just limit James.

In the playoffs, the Heat have accumulated enough energy, and there is no need to honestly follow the rotation.

In the third quarter, the bench only played for a moment in the final moments, and at the beginning of the fourth quarter, they put on the strongest offensive lineup, and the Big Three added Xiaotian Garay Allen.

The Nets didn't expect the Heat's resoluteness, coupled with the fact that their main body was not so strong, so they could only resist with a bench lineup, hoping for some changes.

It's a pity that they encountered a powerful Heat, and the Heat led by double digits, and the main team did not rest in order to solve the game in one go.

In the fourth quarter, the intensity of the Heat increased again, and Kidd's face changed on the court, but there was nothing he could do.

In just a few minutes, the gap between the two sides came to 20 points.

The Nets didn't force a change in the main force either, and Kidd chose to retreat tactically.

The opponent is the Heat, with a 20-point lead, and they can't play at all.
