After a first-round win over the Celtics, the 76ers went into rest. After all, the rest of the game is still going on, especially now that the Heat are out, and the situation is even more confusing. The Bucks take on the Pacers, the Knicks play against the Magic, and as for the Raptors, their opponents are the Hornets. In this way, the original ending was all reversed.

Playoff games for the Bucks and Pacers. Although the current twin stars of the Bucks are very remarkable, without Reed, they can't make up three musketeers, and their strength has dropped a lot. On the other hand, the Pacers have strong and growing players on the inside, and there is a killer Reggie Miller on the outside who makes all teams fearful. This lineup is strong everywhere.

In this series, the performance of "Big Dog" is average, and so the war of two killers begins, with both Gentleman Ray and Reggie Miller being first-class shooters. In a game between the two sides, the two sides went back and forth, constantly shooting three-pointers, shooting in the middle of the game, and finally played three overtimes in a row, and finally Reggie Miller made a winning three-pointer and won the victory.

In the next game, Junzi Lei also began to exert his power and won two games.

The score came to 2-1 and the Pacers were in danger. It was at this point that Miller stepped up again. In the crucial battle that followed, Miller scored 45 points to give the Pacers another valuable victory.

With a score of 2:2, the most crucial game is here again.

It's still Miller vs. Junzi Lei, Miller shoots three points, Junzi Lei also makes a three-point shot, Miller shoots, Junzi Lei breaks through, so the score has been rising alternately. The "big dog" on the inside line is ready to help Junzi Lei, but O'Neill Jr. looks at it very strictly. No way. Only the gentleman Lei was left to fight alone.

Of course, at this time, the gentleman Lei was also young and vigorous, and he was not afraid of Reggie Miller at all, and directly confronted Miller. But that's exactly what Miller wants. Miller is going to die, and he needs someone to fight him so that his winning rate is higher.

After Gentleman Ray took the bait, Miller began his own plan. Miller knew that the machine's trash talk was useless, so he used a more serious one—action provocation.

Miller kept using his body to make Jun Zilei's fouls in the offense, and fought fiercely in defense, making every attack of Zizi Lei go wrong. and with the small actions that he relied on for a living, Miller suppressed the young and vigorous gentleman Lei at this time.

The Pacers struggled to make it to the second round.

Then there was the Knicks vs. the Magic. The Knicks have a clear advantage. After Theo Ratliff joined. The last piece of the puzzle in the New York Knicks' starting lineup was filled. So the Knicks are very powerful. Against the Magic. Although the Magic team tried their best to fight back under the leadership of Maddie, it still didn't make a big deal, and finally lost the game 1:3 and went home for vacation.

Then the Raptors turned on the Hornets. It was a very good game.

The Raptors are almost at their strongest right now. And so do the Wasps. This era was the Charlotte Hornets' last glory. Because in another year, they're going to move, to New Orleans. Hazy is still Carter's master. Antonio Davis continues to guard the interior, and there's a bad guy Charles Oakley. When it comes to Oakley, everyone knows it, and Yao Ming's evaluation of him is: "He fights more than he plays." This New York ghost with two arms and arms is a kickboxing enthusiast in the eyes of fans, a heinous villain in the eyes of opponents, and a big brother who can be fully trusted by his teammates. Oakley didn't really want to turn the basketball game into a boxing battle, but when his teammates were bullied, this bloody man would never sit on the bench and "hang it high". Oakley's frosty steel expression and never-say-die iron spirit believe it speaks for itself.

Oakley's most famous fight was in the first round of the 1998 playoffs between the Knicks and the Heat. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Oakley, but his teammate Larry in the Knicks? Johnson angered the Heat's Mourning, and when Mourning pounced to make a move with Johnson, Oakley stepped up to defend his teammates (actually "Big Mom" Larry?). Johnson didn't need his protection at all, because in one of the 1997 fights, Johnson used a boxing move that made Mourning unable to fight back). In this tense situation, Knicks coach Jeff? Van Gundy staged the classic scene of hugging Mourning's thigh to protect his players.

And the Charlotte Hornets are also the strongest lineup, Mashburn plus PJ Brown plus Byron Davis, even if the Bucks come, they are not afraid, not to mention that they still have Derrick? Coleman. Derek? Coleman could perhaps become one of the best power forwards in the world. When he first debuted, Derek's talent shocked everyone; People describe him as the next Carl? Malone or Charles? Buckley. Sports Illustrated even made this prediction: "Derek will be the best power forward." "Derrick is a standard power forward, he's 208cm tall, he's very strong, and he's good at rebounding; Derrick has solid skills under the basket and has a long-range shooting skill.

In the 1990 draft, the Nets, who held the top pick, did not hesitate to choose Derrick? Coleman, Gary? Payton can only settle for the top spot. Derek's basketball talent is truly enviable, as he averaged 18.6 points, 10.3 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game during his rookie season and was voted Rookie of the Year with an undisputed performance. Derek's game continued to improve, and since his third season, he has averaged "20+10" for three consecutive seasons, and he has become a well-deserved first-class power forward in the league, and has been selected as an All-Star twice. In Derek? Under Coleman, the Nets improved rapidly, reaching the playoffs in the 1992-1993, 1993-1994 and 1994-1995 seasons. The complacent Derek is always lazy in training and is absent from training under various excuses. He is also an out-and-out drunkard, often drunk to the dark, and Derek's state began to decline due to lack of self-discipline in his life. But the New Jersey felt that Derrick was not a qualified leader and repeatedly violated the team's discipline. Derrick moves to the Philadelphia 76ers. Leaving the Nets is Derrick? A turning point in Coleman's fortunes, in the 1995-1996 season, Derek suffered a serious injury and played only 11 games; During his recuperation, Derek was still not disciplined enough, his weight increased dramatically, he became a fat man, and his competitive form dropped sharply. Then the data continued to decline. However, he was still a good power forward with 8 points and 5 rebounds, but that was forgiven given given his less than 20 minutes of playing time.

And so the confrontation between the two teams began.

Mashburn deserves to be the successor of Jordan that year, the demigod has no advantage in front of him, although Carter is very good at dunking, but Mashburn will always use the mid-range shot and the legendary back turn jumper from Jordan to solve the battle, although Carter likes to dunk very much, but a dunk loses more physical strength than shooting, and Mashburn's defense is not bad, in this way, Carter can't have a little advantage. On the inside, Antonio Davis and PJ Brown are on the inside, both of them are very good at physical fitness, but Antonio Davis is better at offense, and PJ Brown is better at defense, such an offensive and defensive combination is constantly fighting on the inside. Derek? Coleman was injured during the regular season, but returned to the team this playoffs, showing why he has the talent to be the top pick. Coleman is quite brave, and he can shoot everything inside and outside, as if he dreamed back to 1994, and even if he is as strong as the bad man Charles Oakley, he can only be stopped by fouling. In this way, the Raptors lost to the Hornets in an upset and missed the second round of the playoffs.

At a time when the Eastern Conference playoff standings were changed beyond recognition, the Western Army playoffs were also in full swing. The Lakers undoubtedly beat the Trail Blazers without Rashid Wallace, the San Antonio Spurs beat the Timberwolves, the Mavericks troika beat the Utah Twins, and the Kings beat the Suns, so that the first round of all the playoffs is over and the second round begins.
