Chapter 102: In the process

The Cavaliers vs. Hawks, Magic vs. Wizards. They are the first matches to decide the winners and loses in the two groups, with the same four sweeps and will fight in the next round.

The other two games in the East were not so smooth or the gap was huge. The Celtics vs. Philadelphia 76ers' game, from the beginning of the series, the Celtics' Big Three showed a huge gap in strength and even experience. The Celtics, led by the two home giants, easily won, and the scene was overwhelming like an NBA-level team against an NBDL-level team. Even the media claimed that this was a completely one-sided game. The Philadelphia 76ers showed their shortcomings when facing the experienced Celtics.

Most media believe that the Celtics will win the game with a score of 4:1, and some radicals even think that the Celtics will sweep and advance like Magic and the Cavaliers.

But after returning to the home court of the Philadelphia Seven Sixers, the Celtics suffered a stubborn block. Even so, the Celtics still won the third game. However, in the fourth game, Ai Igudara's final three-pointer made the Celtics lose the opportunity to sweep 4:0.

By this time, the game had not yet been beyond the expectations of the media.

The Celtics still have an absolute advantage. Although they did not sweep, most people think that returning to the Celtics' home court, the Celtics will never let such accidental things happen again at the North Shore Garden Stadium. But the result is always so unexpected.

At TD North Shore Garden Stadium, the Celtics lost 20 net, and the total score was scored 3:2 by the Philadelphia 76ers. At this time, the media couldn't help but pay attention to this Philadelphia 76ers. However, although the Philadelphia 76ers burst out with energy and won two consecutive games, the media is still optimistic about the Celtics' advancement.

One is because the Celtics have the Big Three, Ray Allen, Pierce, and Garnett. No matter which one of them is, they have the ability to end the game at a critical moment. Another reason is that in history, there has never been a situation where the playoffs are three games behind and the final reversal.

But the Philadelphia 76ers do have a chance.

Game 6 was called the Battle of Kings Mountain by the media. If the Celtics win, then it is naturally the Celtics advanced. But if the Philadelphia 76ers continue to win, they can drag the Celtics into the Battle of Grab 7. Once they are dragged into the Battle of Grab 7, the outcome will be difficult to predict at that time.

Overall, the series is determined by strength. After all, both sides have to fight for seven games at most. They are already fully familiar with their opponents. At this time, the one who competes is naturally the strength. The one with the advantage in strength is more likely to win. But in a specific game, it is not calculated like this.

Once dragged into the tiebreak battle, it will be a decisive battle that determines the outcome.

There are too many variables in this kind of decisive battle, and a slight change in the field may change the balance of advantage. Not to mention how serious the seven battles are to consume physical strength. The Celtics are another team that veterans form the core. Once they are dragged into the tiebreak battle, even if the Celtics finally advance successfully, due to physical exhaustion and the veterans not getting enough rest time, it is also unfavorable for the Celtics' championship path.

It is precisely because of this that the Celtics' away game vs. Philadelphia 76ers' battle at the King of Kings has attracted the attention of many media.

The game was very difficult, and both teams were on the defense and started a blacksmith at the Vachovia Center, home court of the Philadelphia 76ers. Until the last three minutes of the game, the 76ers maintained a slight lead in the score.

If it weren't for the last moment, Ray Allen's three-pointer burst, hitting three consecutive three-pointers to overtake the score and widen it. The Philadelphia 76ers have a high possibility of dragging the game into the 7th game.

The Celtics finally made it.

At the same time, their opponents also appeared in advance. After five fierce battles between the Detroit Pistons and the Toronto Raptors, the Detroit Pistons finally sent the Dragon King Bosh and the Toronto Dragon Cubs led by him back to the beach fishing ground with a total score of 4:1.

In this way, the first round of the Eastern Conference is over, and the opponents in the second round have been established, Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Orlando Magic, Boston Celtics vs. Detroit Pistons. The winners of the two sets of matches will enter the Eastern Conference Finals, compete for the Eastern Conference championship throne and tickets to enter the finals!

In the West, all four groups of games were won and lost one day later. As the Rockets lost the final tiebreak at the Utah Jazz's home energy center stadium 78:85, the Rockets' games this season ended. It also continued the history of their first round of the playoffs.

In addition, in the West, the Los Angeles Lakers vs. the Denver Nuggets, the Los Angeles Lakers successfully advanced with a record of 4:1.

The Denver Nuggets had a chance to make a comeback. After losing to the Los Angeles Lakers in the first game, the Golden Double Guns suddenly broke out in the second game, and they teamed up to score 74 points, defeating the Los Angeles Lakers with a total score of 108:100, and grabbed a victory at the Lakers' home court.

Unfortunately, in the third game between the two sides, Allen Iverson, who was in the backcourt's double-gun gun, sprained his ankle in a layup and was unable to continue participating in the game. Cameron Anthony was unable to support himself and lost three games, ending the Denver Nuggets' playoff trip.

In the series between Hornets vs. Mavericks, the Hornets did not change their dark horse nature. They first achieved two consecutive victories at home, and then visited Dallas to achieve a record of one win and one loss. Back at home, the Hornets did not give the Mavericks any chance and won cleanly. In the end, they also eliminated the Mavericks with a score of 4:1 and advanced to the second round of the Western Conference playoffs.

In the game between Spurs vs. Suns, the Spurs' GDP combination was well run, but the Suns, which forced the shark O'Neal, had adverse reactions, positional battles and running and bombing tactics. O'Neal was finally proved to be completely compatible with the running and bombing tactics. Stodmeier's injury made the Suns even worse. The final record was 4:1 and the Spurs' three-horse horse, which had a stable record and tacit understanding, ended up losing the Suns and entering the second round of the playoffs.

After the game, almost the first time, news came from the Suns' management that they terminated their contract with meritorious coach D'Antoni.

The situation in the west is almost no different from Zhang Kong's previous memory. His influence is currently limited to the east.

At the same time, far away at the other end of the world, the Eastern Kingdoms also focused more attention on the Cavaliers because of the Rockets' retreat.

At this moment, in the dormitory building of Communication University of China's game major, several young people were wearing big trousers, vests, and slippers, leaning in front of the computer and watching the latest reports of the Circle Channel.

On the bed, there were some very rough cards made.

After commenting on the Rockets vs. Jazz, Sun Zhengping said: "Then the first round of the NBA playoffs will be over, and four teams in the east and west will advance. The two teams that our Chinese fans and friends are most concerned about are Houston Rockets and Cleveland Cavaliers. So, after seven battles with the Jazz, they were eliminated by the Jazz 4:3. Another team that our Chinese fans and friends are very concerned about is the Cleveland Cavaliers where our Chinese player Zhang Kong is located, but swept the Atlanta Hawks 4:0 to advance to the second round. In the second round, the opponent they will face is the Orlando Magic, and Zhang Kong will once again have a direct confrontation with Dwight Howard. So, coach Zhang, which team do you think has a better chance of advancing to the Eastern Conference Finals?"

"Well, I think, both teams can advance by sweeping, which means that both teams are very strong and in good condition. Let's take a look at the lineups of the two teams. The lineups of the two teams are very reasonable... The tactics are used very reasonably... The promotion is very reasonable..."

"Hey, Sanpang, which team do you think the Cavaliers or Magic will win?" After taking a bite of instant noodles, a young man wearing glasses and acne-faced face was full of acne.

"It must be a knight, Zhang Kong is invincible!" A fat man who was 1.9 meters tall and weighed more than 300 kilograms and had a fat face and said with admiration: "What 'Warcraft' Howard, when he met Zhang Kong, he would definitely be dealt with like a kitten!"

"You can't say that, Howard is also quite strong."

"That's a big deal. When the Cavaliers played against the Magic last time, howard was beaten up!"

"That's the regular season. Besides, experience is more important in the playoffs. Monkey, what do you think."

"I think it's difficult for the Magic to win the Cavaliers, but it's not easy for the Cavaliers to win the Celtics. I guess I, Kay, must be the Eastern Conference champion!"

"Tsk, the Celtics were knocked out by Zhang Kong in the regular season! It was Zhang Kong's blocking final kill!"

"That ball is luck, it can't count."

"What kind of luck is luck, it's also part of strength, okay?"

"Do you play in the afternoon?"

“There is class in the afternoon.”

"What if he doesn't matter, he's just an elective course. I ran away. In the afternoon, I made an appointment with the guys from the Foreign Language Department. I have to teach them a lesson today."

"Okay, you all run away, I'll run away."

Just as the few people were chatting enthusiastically, the door of the dormitory was suddenly pushed open. When the few people suddenly looked back, they saw a tall foreigner walking in with his department head. Then they frowned. The unique smell of the boy's college dormitory mixed with underwear, smelly shoes, smelly socks and used toilet paper was absolutely dizzy.
