While the semifinals in the West were in full swing, the semifinals in the East were just as intense.

The game between the Pacers and the Knicks was considered a close game at the beginning, but in the first game of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Pacers showed super control, suppressing the opponent's play and firmly controlling the game on the court throughout the game.

93:83 The Pacers won Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals.

In the second game that followed, it was the Pacers who also controlled the tempo.

At the beginning of the first quarter, Chris, who started to work first? Mullin, the old guy, scored four points in a row with two shots in the opening game.

Not to be outdone, Ewing's turnaround jumper also made it difficult for Schmitz to defend.

Throughout the first quarter, the two sides were 22-21, and the Pacers only led by one point.

After the start of the second season, the Pacers gradually increased their defensive efforts, and at one point the Knicks did not score a point in 3 minutes.

The Pacers scored six straight points, which forced Van Gundy to call a timeout.

But after the timeout, the Knicks still couldn't solve the offensive problem.

By the end of the second quarter, the Pacers had a seven-point lead.

43:36 Pacers lead into the second half.

At the start of the third quarter, the Knicks tried to start a counterattack, but after Miller hit two three-pointers in a row, the Knicks' counterattack was completely suppressed.

This suppression lasted until the end of the game.

The 85:77 Pacers took the lead with a score of 2:0.

The third game at the Knicks' home court was also a defensive battle, with players on both sides taking defense as their first goal seriously.

The advantage of the game in the first quarter was still the Pacers, and Cassel had a wonderful performance in the first quarter of the game, and the continuous mid-range shooting allowed the Knicks not to expand their defensive circle, so that the Pacers' interior players also began to perform, Dale? Davis and Schmitz scored back-to-back inside shots.

At 22:19 at the end of the first quarter, the Pacers ended the first quarter with a three-point lead.

After the start of the second quarter, the Knicks' adjusted defensive strategy strangled the Pacers' inside and outside connections, limited the Pacers' offensive power, and only allowed the Pacers to score 4 points in the last 5 minutes of the second quarter, which was suffocating.

The Pacers also adjusted their deployment after halftime, but they still couldn't break through the Knicks' defensive circle.

The Pacers, who have always been suppressed by the Knicks, there is nothing good to do.

Only one defeat was possible at the Knicks' home court.

The Pacers, who had learned the hard way, began to attack aggressively in Game 5.

The Pacers shot 12-of-16 from three-point range throughout the game, and the Knicks were caught off guard by such an astonishing shooting percentage.

As soon as the first quarter began, the Pacers put on a strong offensive stance, and Miller threw the ball in when his opponent covered his face.

Such a goal greatly boosted the momentum of the Pacers, who scored 32 points in the first quarter.

The unprepared Knicks were stunned and scored only 21 points in a single quarter.

The Pacers played their momentum, while the Knicks continued to be suppressed.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Knicks tried to fight back, and Larry? Johnson, Stackhouse and Alain? Houston tried to counter with shots, but couldn't turn the tide when the Pacers were well marked.

After halftime adjustments, the Knicks at the beginning of the third quarter had some turnarounds, but it was Reggie again? Miller stepped up and hit two three-pointers in a row, completely crushing the Knicks' counterattack.

After the start of the fourth quarter, the Pacers continued to suppress the Knicks' offense, not giving the opponent a chance at all, and the more spicy Pacers had the last laugh, and the Knicks could only accept a defeat.

118:107 The Pacers got the match point.

Looking at the cheering pacers, the Knicks could only secretly swallow their sweat and prepare for the next battle of life and death.

Game 5 continues on the Knicks' home court.

At the beginning of this game, the Pacers were already in full swing, and the Pacers, who had already won the match point, did not want to miss any opportunities, nor did they want to give their opponents any chances.

From the first quarter, the Pacers have firmly controlled the rhythm of this game, and the Pacers' orderly defense and tacit cooperation all show the strength of the Pacers.

And the defensive system that the Knicks rely on to survive has also lost its effectiveness in front of the Pacers, and the Knicks can only rely on their individual ability to score limited points on offense.

The score was 25-20 in the first quarter, and the Pacers led by five points.

After entering the second quarter, the Pacers continued their lead, and the backcourt composed of Mullin, Miller, and Kase completely suppressed the Knicks.

47:38 The Pacers led by nine points heading into the second half.

The Pacers players were also very excited at halftime, and it has always been their dream to have the opportunity to challenge the powerful Bulls.

After the start of the second half, the Pacers were like tigers out of the slaughter, biting the Knicks, who were no longer able to resist.

At the end of the game, the Pacers defeated the Knicks 99:88 to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals.

While the Pacers and Knicks were in the thick of the battle, the Chicago Bulls also welcomed the Hornets who defeated the Hawks to advance to the semifinals on their home court.

The Bulls' defense was still suffocating, and the score of 83-70 in the first game made the Hornets, who were strong in attack, realize how terrible their opponents were.

At the start of the second game, the Hornets uncharacteristically battled with the Bulls on defense.

From the first quarter, the Hornets players went crazy and began to limit the Bulls' offense, Jordan was limited, Pippen was limited, Kukoc was limited, and Kerr was limited.

Even Rodman was greatly challenged when it came to rebounding.

At the beginning of the first quarter, the Hornets led their opponents by two points at 20:18.

Such a thing makes the fans at the Bulls' home court uneasy.

After the start of the second quarter, the Bulls tried to launch a counterattack, but today's Hornets started to defend with an iron heart, and the Bulls fought an inch.

But the bull is a bull after all, and after slowly adapting to the opponent's defense, he started his counterattack little by little.

However, the hit rate of both sides today is not very good, both are around 30%.

This is a little helpless, there is no way to defend both sides, and it destroys the feel of both sides.

The two sides spent the second quarter of the game in the iron. 36:35 Hornets lead by one point.

After halftime, the Hornets and Bulls continued to battle.

In the second half, the shooting rate of both sides still did not improve, and they still spent time in the iron.

This also shows from the side that the defense of the two sides is tight.

At the end of the third quarter, the two sides were tied.

59:59 The two sides are back on the same starting line.

After the start of the fourth quarter, there was still little change between the two sides, the shooting percentage was low, and both sides spent time in frequent iron.

However, there was a great moment towards the end of the game, when with 9.6 seconds left in the game, Rice hit his most important three-pointer of the game.

78:76 Hornets lead by 2 points.

Originally, the Bulls had the hope of killing the opponent, but at the last moment, Kerr's three-point shot missed, and the Hornets snatched a victory on their home court.

The Hornets players began a wild celebration on the field.

Seeing this scene, Jordan's eyes flickered.

The Hornets, who returned to their home court, seemed to have lost their clear thinking in the third game, whether it was offensive or defensive, and the problem was not resolved.

The Hornets, who have been in chaos since the first quarter, have no way to stop the Bulls' tidal attack, and the Bulls' triumvirate is like a flowing cloud, making it impossible to guard.

By the end of the first quarter, the Hornets trailed by eight points at 27:19.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Bulls continued to put this huge pressure on the Hornets, and the Hornets were cornered step by step.

The rebound ball is unprotected, and the shot on which it depends is missing.

The Hornets were dying, and the second quarter ended at 52:42 with the Bulls already leading by 10 points.

At halftime, the Hornets still didn't solve the problem of whether it was offensive or defensive, and continued to mess up.

And the Bulls still controlled the tempo on the court, so that any counterattack by the Hornets did not have an effect.

76:62 The Bulls stretched the score to 14 points at the end of the third quarter.

After the start of the fourth quarter, the Hornets, who had lost confidence in the game, began to abandon the game.

At the end of the game 103:89.

The Bulls tied the score at 2-1.

This game was a huge blow to the confidence of the Hornets.

In the next fourth game, the Bulls once again mastered the situation on the court.

After the start of the first quarter, the Hornets began to attack with determination, which was different from the confusion of the previous game between offense and defense.

The Hornets opted for a determined offense in this game.

From the first minute of the first quarter, the Hornets went on offense.

But is there any threat to such an attack? Not at all, and in the face of the Bulls' formidable defense, the Hornets shot less than 30 percent from the field.

With Rodman and Longley effectively controlling the rebound, such a game is child's play.

The Hornets repeatedly missed shots, and they shot desperately, and the rebounds generated by a large number of shots were almost all controlled by Rodman and Longley.

The pair grabbed 11 rebounds in the first quarter.

Effectively protects the inside line of the bull.

At the beginning of the second quarter of the game, the Hornets were still shooting desperately, but today it may be that the Hornets have a bad overall hand, and they still miss shots repeatedly like in the first quarter.

Rice even angrily slammed the basketball hard to the floor and received a technical foul.

Seeing this situation, the Bulls players are very happy, who doesn't want to win the opponent easily.

After halftime, the Hornets still couldn't recover their touch, and they were still playing iron.

By the end of the game, the crazy Hornets had scored only 80 points.

It's really unbearable, 94:80 In the chaos of the Hornets themselves, the Bulls won again.

The Bulls got the match point.

In the crucial fifth game, the Hornets still didn't seem to be able to recover from the slump in the previous game.

The shooting still didn't go in, but the Hornets strengthened the breakthrough in this game, and in the first quarter of the game, they played well with the Bulls.

But starting in the second quarter of the game, after the Bulls strengthened their defense against the Hornets' breakthrough, the Hornets were once again contained.

There was no way, the shot missed, the breakthrough failed, and the Hornets fell into a dead loop.

The Bulls were always in control of the tempo of the game.

By halftime, the Bulls had a 10-point lead.

After halftime, the Bulls' control became stronger and stronger, and the Hornets could only fail step by step.

At the end of the game, the score was fixed at 93:84, and the Bulls defeated the Hornets to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals.

So the Eastern Conference Finals are the Bulls Pacers.

A classic showdown is about to begin.

The confrontation between God and the man who opposed him began.
