Whether it is the status of the two of them or their personal data performance, Wang Feng can achieve full coverage of the former, although people admit that Tre. Yang will definitely be a top superstar in the future, but at least there is still a huge gap with Wang Feng for now, and even if Tre is a top superstar in the future. Yang really grew to the peak, and it was not so easy to reach Wang Feng's standard.

In the Cavaliers' game against the Hawks, it was widely expected that the Cavaliers would emerge victorious, and the process would not be too difficult.

Both teams are single-core teams on the surface, and the Cavaliers don't have to worry about being suppressed due to the lack of strength in the roster.

And so it is.

On April 14, the opening game of the first round of the playoffs began.

The Cavaliers host the Atlanta Hawks.

In the first playoff game, the Cavaliers got off to a good start with a hearty victory.

At 121:106, the Hawks were suppressed by the Cavaliers throughout the whole process, without any chance to counterattack or turn the tables.

The starting lineup of the Cavaliers in this game is still a small-ball tactical lineup with Love as the center, while the starting lineup of the Hawks is point guard Tray. Young, quarterback Bogdan. Bogdanovic, small forward Deandre. Hunter, power forward John. Scollin, center Clint. Capella.

This is a set of starting lineups with a relatively comprehensive offensive and defensive lineup, and the offensive end is dominated by Tray. Young is the central initiator, Bogdanovic and Hunter both have three-point shooting ability, and power forward John Brown. Scolin is also a well-known spatial interior player, averaging 21.6 points per game in the regular season for the Hawks in the 19-20 season, and last season with Trae Young's outburst shots, but still averaging 17.6 points per game in the regular season, shooting more than 55% from the field and nearly 45% from three-point range.

While having excellent offensive ability, the Hawks relied on Clint on the defensive end, who started with defense and rebounding with the Rockets and played a valuable game. Capella.

Capela's rim protection ability is definitely the top level in the league, and his average of 11.1 points, 11.9 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game this season is slightly lower than the previous Rockets period, but this is the data he got in his average of 27.6 minutes per game, which shows that his rim protection efficiency is extremely efficient, which is only higher than the Cavaliers' similarly positioned center Jarrett Allen.

This starting lineup is also the reason why the Hawks can stand out in the East and successfully reach the playoffs.

Although the East is slightly less competitive than the West, the competition for playoff spots is just as fierce.

Ninth in place is the lack of core leader Jimmy. Butler, but still tenaciously maintain a good competitiveness of the Miami Heat, tenth is the Charlotte Hornets, and the eleventh New York Knicks, the record is very close to the Hawks.

The Hawks can stand out in the competition and competition with these teams, but unfortunately they can't face the Cavaliers.

The Hawks gave the much-anticipated Trey. Young played quite badly against the Cavaliers, playing 35 minutes with only 9 points, 1 rebound, 5 assists and 5 turnovers, shooting 27.3% from the field.

Not to mention a performance that turned the tide, it is not too much to call such a performance an undercover agent for the Eagles.

Trey. The reason why Yang is so miserable is inseparable from the Cavaliers' targeted defensive tactics.

Wang Feng attaches great importance to this playoffs, so he will take the initiative to send out all risks that may affect his completion of the system upgrade task.

The only core of the Hawks is Trey. Yang, it's also very simple and direct to deal with, Wang Feng himself to defend Trey. Yang is good!

Trey, who is 1.88 meters tall. Yang himself does not have an advantage compared to Wang Feng in terms of physique, and he is completely crushed by Wang Feng in terms of speed, bounce, and explosion, and the only thing that has a slight advantage is speed and agility.

Trey. Young's speed and agility are above 95, which is also his capital in the NBA, but due to physical fitness, his speed is still slightly inferior to Iverson, Wall and other players who are really good at speed.

Wang Feng's speed and agility are both 94, and Bitre. Young was slower, but by no means completely out of reach, and the crushing of the power bounce made Trey a bit slower. Yang's slight lead is not obvious at all, not to mention that Wang Feng also has a number of top-level defensive badges, especially the existence of the purple Hall of Fame-level defensive shock badge, which is the biggest nemesis of all projection-oriented players.

This caused Wang Feng to keep an eye on Tre throughout the whole process. In the case of Yang, the latter was completely unable to perform at a normal level of results.

And this result also made Atlanta fans a little difficult to accept for a while.

Everyone knows that Wang Feng is very strong, but his own star is so unbearable when facing the other party, it is difficult for anyone to accept it.

Even if you can't get a comparable result, at least it shouldn't be too bad, right?

9 points, 1 rebound, 5 assists, 5 turnovers, this is too exaggerated, right?

"It turns out that it's not advisable to have short players as the core of the team, Trey. Young has also had many vivid examples before, Thomas Jr., Paul failed to lead the team as the core of the team to achieve outstanding results in the playoffs, and even Iverson only played in the Finals once in his entire career. ”

"The regular season looks like Trey. Young and Doncic seem to be able to complement each other without falling behind, but when it comes to the playoffs, the drawbacks of height will be infinitely magnified. ”

"If the Hawks want to go far in the playoffs in the future, they have to think about bringing in at least a man who can play as Tre on the offensive end. Yang shares the second core of the pressure. ”

"They have a lot of great role players on the team, such as Scollin, Hunter, Capela and others, but it's obviously not enough. Yang is not Wang Feng, and he is not strong enough to be fine even without helpers. ”

A media comment's is quite pertinent, but such an evaluation can only wait until next season to find a chance to confirm it.

On April 17, in the second game of the first round of the playoffs, the Cavaliers still did not give the Hawks any chance at home, 120-99, and won again by a large score.

After two days of adjustments, Trey. Young's form did not improve, and he only handed in an answer sheet of 11 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists in the second game, although it was slightly better than the first game, but it was still seriously failed.

On 2-of-12 shooting, only 16.7% shooting percentage and a whopping 6 turnovers were completely set off Wang Feng's toughness on the defensive end.

The Eagles didn't fail to make tactical adjustments, and they tried a number of methods, including but not limited to pick-and-roll screens, to get Trey. Young played an off-ball cover inside cut, but it didn't work.

As the sole core of the team, Trey. Yang only scored a total of 20 points in the two games, compared to Wang Feng, who easily scored 28 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists in the first game, and then cut 32 points, 10 rebounds and 13 assists in the second game, and averaged a triple-double of 30 points, 10.5 rebounds and 10.5 assists per game in the two games.

……

The two home courts easily won the score of 2:0, and the momentum of the Cavaliers will take advantage of the victory to chase after the victory, and defeated the Hawks 119-103 on the away side of the G3 series on April 20, turning the total score into 3:0, and successfully getting the match point, but also basically confirming the promotion to the second round.

Back at home to Trey. Young finally recovered slightly, finishing with 24 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists on 6-of-14 shooting, shooting 42.9% from the field and hitting 10 free throws.

Yes, getting some form back is only a secondary reason, Trey. Yang was able to barely put in passing stats, relying on the credit of the home whistle.

The league doesn't want the playoffs to be too one-sided, with lots of garbage time not benefiting ratings, and Trey. Yang will also lose a lot of fans due to poor performances, which will affect the sales of jerseys.

As a result, Trey, who was whistling at home. Yang had at least a slight physical contact, and there would be a whistle immediately.

Wang Feng was fouled twice in the first quarter of the game, and immediately understood what this meant. Young made physical contact, giving up one of the big magic weapons of the outside defense, Death Entanglement, and only relying on the deterrent eye defense to limit Tray. Yang hit rate.

But even so, the Hawks couldn't escape the fate of losing, just to let Trey . Yang lost a little more decently.

Wang Feng, who performed "tepid" in the first two games, focused on the ball-holding offense due to the inability to fully invest in the defensive end in this game, and his score was significantly improved compared with the previous two games, scoring 43 points, 16 rebounds and 8 assists in a single game.

With 3:0 already in the situation, the Eagles are already destined to be in the first round.

On April 22, the fourth game of the first round of the playoffs was still at the Philips Arena in Atlanta, the home of the Hawks.

The result was no different from the first three games.

127:104 is still a big victory.

In none of the four games, the Cavaliers scored less than 120 points in one game, and the Hawks did not score more than 110 points in a single game.

The huge difference in strength between the two teams is like a chasm, leaving Eagles fans without even the slightest hope of a comeback.

This game, Trey. Young again had 25 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists, but the price he paid was 10 turnovers in a single game.

Four games of the entire series, Trey. Young averaged just 17.3 points, 4.8 rebounds and 6.5 assists per game, shooting 31% from the field and averaging seven turnovers per game.

In his fourth season and second playoff appearance, Trey Murray Brown has played in the playoffs. Young's performance proves that he still has a long way to go.

The Cavaliers, who easily swept the Hawks 4-0 to enter the second round, can have a longer time to wait for the second round opponent to be released.

The Cavaliers' second-round opponent is the winner between the Milwaukee Bucks, who are fourth in the East, and the Philadelphia 76ers who are fifth.

Bucks vs. 76ers, this is the most intense series of several matchups in the first round of the playoffs.

Both teams are favorites to win the championship and both have MVP-caliber players.

The Bucks' Antetokounmpo and the 76ers' Embiid are both on the regular season MVP list this year, while the 76ers' outside core James is on the list this year. Although Harden has not yet won the regular season MVP crown because of Wang Feng, he is also recognized as a top superstar with MVP-level strength.

In the process of the Cavaliers having begun to rest and prepare, the two teams have just fought to a 2-2 draw, and both sides have won two games at their respective home courts, and the crucial battle of Tianwang Mountain is about to come.

In the battle of G5 Tianwang Mountain, the Bucks team led by Brother Alphabet was slightly better and won the crucial battle of Tianwang Mountain 118-112.

On the other side of the 76ers, Embiid had 25 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists, and Harden had 24 points, 4 rebounds and 9 assists.

Although the performance of the two is not bad, they are also decent, and they do not show the momentum of the power king.

But this can't be helped, Harden's attributes in the regular season dragon playoff bug are no longer a day or two, and it has long been the norm to always pull his hips when it comes to playoff performance.

And Embiid was directly opposite Brother Alphabet in this game, and his performance was indeed slightly worse than Brother Alphabet.

The Bucks, who won the battle of Tianwang Mountain, were not happy for long, and then in the G6 series, the 76ers stubbornly won the game, leveling the score to 3:3, and the tie-break battle came.

The Cavaliers watched the live broadcast of the two teams' tie-breakers throughout the team.

In the end, it was the Bucks who had the last laugh.

Brother Alphabet played 41 minutes in the tiebreaker, scored 44 points, 20 rebounds and 6 assists, and almost single-handedly overturned the 76ers.

Watching the whole game, the whole Cavaliers team didn't speak for a long time.

Most of the players were shocked, especially a few younger players, who were suppressed by the fierce confrontation in the tiebreaker.

"Is this a playoff-level matchup?"

They all seriously doubt what would happen if they were on the field, and they would be knocked apart directly, right?

The scene of Brother Alphabet turning over the 76ers like a monster made them unable to calm down for a long time.

"Our next opponent is the Bucks, this team is too strong, and sure enough, they didn't use their full strength in the regular season, this series is not easy to play......"

Looking at his teammates with somewhat serious faces, Wang Feng laughed.

"What? Scared? It's just a remnant Bucks, so there's nothing to be afraid of. ”

One of the Big Three, John. Wall has not returned from injury so far, and only the two core Bucks team of Antetokounmpo and Middleton are much worse than the same period in another time and space, after all, Wall's salary has caused the Bucks to have a lot less powerful role players than in another time and space.

Facing such a Bucks team, Wang Feng was not afraid at all.

To be exact, it's not a question of fear at all.

Since stepping into the NBA professional arena, Wang Feng has been pressing Brother Alphabet, and the other party has never defeated him in all aspects, and after so many years, there is a faint feeling of blood suppression.

Wang Feng will not have any pressure and psychological burden on his brother, and it is even a matter of course to defeat the other party.

Of course, Wang Feng also understands that he must despise his opponent strategically, but he must attach the greatest importance to it tactically, and he does not want to capsize in the gutter.
