After returning to Portland with a 0-2 score, the Trail Blazers players were surprised to find that there were a lot of fans who spontaneously came to welcome them home, and everyone had a face full of joy, not to mention banners and flowers, as if the team was now leading 2-0.

The rookies who had just joined the team for a season didn't understand this, and Ayers even secretly asked Ye Feng: "Ye, what's the situation?" Shouldn't they be upset with our poor performance? God testify, I thought it would be nice for them to come and scold us at the airport, but now it seems that there is no frustration on the faces of the fans, which is a bit of an incredible, I don't understand it. ”

Ailes's voice was a little loud, even if he secretly asked Ye Feng in private, the voice was not much smaller. Before Ye Feng could answer, Miller, who was walking in front of them, turned his head and said with a smile: "The fans are the cutest group of people, in their opinion, we can reach the finals with such strength, which is already considered to have exceeded the pre-season goal, I bet that even the most die-hard fans never thought that we could actually get to this point this season." They came to meet us at the airport because they thought we were already playing well and even though everyone wanted to win the championship, they didn't think we could be asked to do more. ”

Miller's words moved Ayers a little, and the big guy suddenly became excited, constantly waving to the fans on both sides. Seeing that he looked like he had been beaten with chicken blood, Ye Feng rolled his eyes at Miller, Miller shrugged his shoulders indifferently, he felt that what he said might be a bit exaggerated, but most of it still made sense, Ayers was beaten with chicken blood like this, what could he do? And that's not necessarily a bad thing, at least he can play harder on the court.

That's why every playoff team wants to try to fight for home advantage, and the feeling of playing at home and playing away is completely different for a player, there will be more people supporting you at home, and there's always a thought in your heart that you can't let down the fans who like you. So except for a few odd ones, the vast majority of players perform better at home than on the road, and the team's home record is generally better than the away record.

The NBA playoffs have been completely best-of-seven since 2003 (the previous first round was a best-of-five system), and the current home-and-away arrangement is 2-2-1-1-1-1, which means that the team with a good record will play two games at home, and then the team with a poor record will play two games at home, and the next three games will be two teams in turn, and the most critical seventh game will be played at the home court of the team with a better record, which is more conducive to their performance. If you have the best record in the league, you'll have home field advantage until the finals.

In fact, Trail Blazers fans have long been unhappy with their opponents, and they believe that part of the reason for the team's dysfunction is because the Celtics fans put a lot of pressure on their opponents at home. So under the planning of the fan organization, they are ready to turn the entire Rose Garden Arena into a hell for their opponents. Of course, they did the same, slogans and whistles were trivial, and some were even ready to bring small trumpets into the arena as props to distract opponents at critical moments. Fortunately, the Trailblazers still have discipline, and the security guard at the door helplessly and politely refused to allow the fans to bring this kind of big killer into the stadium.

The atmosphere at the Trail Blazers' home stadium was also very enthusiastic, but this was for the Trail Blazers players, and when the Celtics players came on the court, the boos were so loud that people couldn't even hear the referee's whistle. While the fans won't be making such loud noises during the game, they have proven themselves and will not be stingy with their saliva if the need arises.

From the moment the ball jumped, Trail Blazers fans began to boo the Celtics players, and as long as they had the ball, the noise could be several decibels higher. Although the Celtics players are experienced, they did not consider the influence of the fans before coming to the away stadium, in their opinion, the overall strength of the Trail Blazers is still a little lacking, just swept the opponent 4-0 to win the championship, but the Trail Blazers' home atmosphere made them unexpected.

On the contrary, the Trail Blazers players showed great strength, Ye Feng and Miller hit two three-pointers in the opening game, Aldridge also hit a shot, and the Trail Blazers quickly opened the situation 8-0. Everyone has a fire in their hearts, and after a day of rest, everyone's shooting feel has returned to a normal level, and it is logical to play a dream start under the advantages of one another.

And in the cheers of the fans at the scene, the five starters of the Trail Blazers played almost 12 percent of their combat power, not only scoring continuously on the offensive end, but also resolutely stepping forward to bite the opponent's key players on the defensive end, seemingly not caring at all whether they would be fouled by the referee. Rondo is relatively better, born in 1986, he is only 24 years old this year, whether it is physical fitness or strength, he is not left behind, and the suffering is in the Big Three, they are all veterans, and they are relatively easy to play if the Trail Blazers don't play hard, but now they are gradually feeling powerless.

Among them, the biggest influence was Ray Allen on the outside. Needless to say, Pierce's tricks of using his big ass to play back-to-back singles will never go out of style, and Garnett is also a passionate and scrappy player, with only Ray Allen being the most vulnerable. Batum didn't rush to attack this game, but put pressure on Ray Allen on the defensive end, causing him to be disrupted by two consecutive three-pointers, and finally bounced off the frame.

If it weren't for the bench players who recovered some points, the Celtics might have trailed by 10 points in the first quarter, but even with the bench players, they trailed the Trail Blazers by six points in the first quarter 22-28. This was a surprise for the Trail Blazers, who were going to fall behind in the first quarter of the first two games, and this time they were able to lead their opponents and have to say that they have a concrete manifestation of home-court advantage. Watching the crazy performance of the fans, all the players of the Trail Blazers were full of power.
