127:69!
58 points! !
In the visiting team's locker room, a certain 183 man who did not want to be named saw this 58-year-old tragedy and couldn't help but think back to that night in 2009.
That day, that night, different opponents, but the same point difference!
I remember that in 2009, the Denver Nuggets defeated the New Orleans Hornets by 58 points 121:63, tying the record for the largest playoff point difference set by the Lakers 54 years ago.
At that time, everyone agreed that it would be difficult for any team to touch this mysterious number for at least the next twenty or thirty years.
I never thought that less than 6 years later, someone would tie the record of 58!
This is an exciting night for all basketball fans, except for a certain depressed 183 man.
…
After the game, only head coach Rivers of the Clippers attended the media interview. At this time, someone has to come out to shoulder the pressure. Griffin is the Clippers management's default next team leader. At this time, only Rivers can be allowed to come out and take the blame.
Regardless of the reason, the Clippers are a playoff team after all, but they lost to their opponents by 58 points. This is absolutely intolerable.
When facing the camera, Rivers did not shirk his responsibility. Instead, he replied to the media over and over again. The responsibility lies with me!
For the Trail Blazers, Wang Zelin, who had a triple-double of 32 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists, did not add insult to injury. He responded to some remarks in front of the media and left the game in a hurry.
If Wang Zelin had not experienced reaching the top before winning the championship, he would definitely not miss the opportunity to shine after the game.
But now, neither he nor Lillard nor Aldridge have much enthusiasm for post-game interviews.
Moreover, this was not the first time that the Gunners were frustrated when facing the Trail Blazers. They also lost the passion they had at the beginning.
What's more, Scarlett is still waiting anxiously in the parking lot and plans to go back with him tonight to see the cat doing some backflips.
…
…
The first game day of the Eastern and Western Conference semifinals ended with more to watch than people imagined.
James had a near triple-double with 39 points, 13 assists and 9 rebounds, completely destroying the Raptors' front line, leading the Cavaliers to a 109:102 victory over the Raptors at home, winning the series with a total score of 1-0!
Later, Wang Zelin, who had 32 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists, led the Trail Blazers to sink the Clippers at home, and also achieved a total score of 1-0 in the series!
Of course, none of the above is as exciting as the news that Paul suffered another 58 tragedy!
As for what happened when Paul obviously didn't play?
Sorry, in the eyes of the media, the Clippers are Paul's team, so what's the difference between the Clippers' 58 tragedy and Paul's?
Therefore, Paul and his Clippers are on fire again.
Some NBA stars, including some who went to Hawaii for a fishing vacation, also expressed their condolences on social media when Paul suffered another 58 tragedy for the first time.
Their reasons are also very good. After all, Paul is the chairman of the NBA union. To a certain extent, they are also caring about their boss.
Ahem, I don’t know how many people here are sincere and how many are just watching and joking.
Anyway, most of the melon-eating people in this lively discussion said: This melon is so sweet, I love it!
…
After the first game of the series, the Trail Blazers had no team training the next day, and players were stopped from additional training.
In the morning, he sent Scarlett away, and at noon, Wang Zelin called Jokic, the famous killer of Happy Water and a voiceless Internet addict, and the two played video games at home all afternoon, which is known as the combination of work and rest.
There is no training for the Clippers. After the last game, the Trail Blazers need to rest, and the Clippers players need to take a good break even more than they do.
The Clippers are resting in the hotel. They were so embarrassed yesterday that they still have the energy to go out and have fun today. The coaching staff is also focusing on studying the Trail Blazers' weaknesses and trying to find breakthroughs in the game.
On this day, when Griffin learned that Paul was still unable to play in the second game and had to wait until the third game, he was already silently preparing to lose the victory in the second game.
At the same time, he was also seriously thinking about what Wang Zelin said yesterday, and he was reflecting on his basketball path over and over again.
…
On rest days, Wang Zelin had a very relaxed time. Coach Terry called three times a day to specifically tell him to pay attention to the amount of training, and he himself followed it strictly.
As a professional player, he knows very well how important rest is for basketball players!
Especially in the playoffs, where every game is a must-win, adequate rest after the game can minimize the occurrence of accidental injuries on the field.
On the 6th, I played video games during the day and watched the other two teams in the semifinals at night.
However, what he is most concerned about is this matchup in the Western Conference.
Strictly speaking, this opportunity for the Warriors and Mosaics to participate is of great significance.
In the eyes of the outside world, this is the first meeting between the two sides in the playoffs in more than 10 years since entering the 21st century; and in Wang Zelin's heart, this is the first conversation between Curry and Harden on the big stage in their 2009 careers. In the past few years, the dialogue between the two has influenced a generation of fans.
Of course, later on, due to the growing gap in honor between the two, the so-called 2009 duo gradually evolved into what many fans call "Beiqiao Feng and Nan Murong."
But as a latecomer, Wang Zelin can't help but be a little excited to witness the beginning of a glorious NBA history.
At the same time, what makes him even more excited is that he is not only a witness to this period of history, but also a destroyer who destroys this period of history.
…
After a big battle, the Warriors at home defeated the Mosaics 110:106 and won the first game of the series!
Caused by the previous crushing game of the Trail Blazers, today's showdown between the Warriors and Mosaic is obviously more suspenseful and more intense.
In this campaign, Harden was the star of the Warriors. He tried his best to score 28 points, 9 assists, 11 rebounds and 4 steals, a near-triple-double. In the final quarter, he had a superstar moment where he scored 10 consecutive single points in ten minutes, but his efforts were not enough. Didn't help Mosaic win the game.
A key point in this game is that Howard, another core member of the Mosaic team, accidentally collided with his teammates when running in the first quarter. Although he quickly returned to the game under the treatment of the team doctor, his condition was inevitably affected. In the end, he only scored 7 points and 13 rebounds, and committed 5 fatal turnovers.
For the Warriors, Curry scored a game-high 34 points, plus 6 rebounds and 5 assists; Klay Thompson scored 15 points, Green scored 13 points, 12 rebounds and 8 assists, a near triple-double, and Barnes scored 14 points. .
On the bench, Livingston also contributed a vital 18 points.
The other end.
The game between the Eagles and Bulls is also over.
What no one expected was that the Bulls maintained their lead throughout the game as a guest in Atlanta, and finally defeated the Hawks 102:95 away from home.
In this game, the Bulls did their best on the defensive end, allowing the Eagles to only score 35 points in the second half!
Among them, former MVP Derrick Rose, who made 11 of 26 shots, 3 of 6 three-pointers, scored 25 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal, was elected the best of the game.
Especially the 9-0 offensive wave in the final quarter, which was teamed up with Butler, completely shattered the Eagles' hopes of a comeback.
After this game, the Bulls defeated the Eagles, and the winning rate of promotion in the series increased significantly. The probability of promotion of the two teams changed from 28 to 64 before the start of the game!
If the Bulls are allowed to step on the Hawks' corpse and reach the Eastern Conference Finals, Mike Budenholzer, who just won his first career Coach of the Year award, is likely to suffer a huge backlash!
How powerful the media's praise was before, how miserable he will fall next.
But fortunately, it's only the first game of the series, and it doesn't mean that the Bulls will really be in trouble.
But what is clear is that the Eagles coaching staff will have their hands full in the next few nights, and there is no telling how much hair will be lost.
…
Soon on May 7th, the Trail Blazers continued their post-season trip to the mountains, still at the Rose Garden Tavern, at 19:00 in the evening for the second game of the Western Conference semifinal series.
The Clippers made a lot of adjustments before this game. After all, Rivers is a championship coach and has some real skills.
In the pre-game arrangement, he made several modifications, reducing inside singles, seeking more reasonable offense through pick-and-rolls, and... asking Griffin to catch up with the ducks and imitate Wang Zelin in the previous game to provide high-position support.
To be honest, Griffin, who just hit a season-high average of 5.3 assists per game this year, is not without this ability. It’s just that before Paul was injured, a lot of the ball rights were concentrated in Paul’s hands, and Griffin had never been able to make a real impact. Played a playmaker.
But this is no longer possible.
Now everyone understands that the Clippers can't beat the Trail Blazers in superstar basketball, so they simply reduce the comparison in this aspect and change it to a more reasonable battle.
Maybe, in the minds of all the Clippers, their primary goal tonight is not to win, but to try to lose less points in this way.
After all, after the last game, everyone could see the huge strength gap between the two teams.
After the game started, the starting lineups of both sides remained unchanged. Lillard, Matthews, Batum, Aldridge and Wang Zelin of the Trail Blazers; Rivers Jr., Redick, Barnes, Griffin and DeAndre Jordan of the Clippers.
After a few minutes of playing, Coach Terry noticed that the Clippers had adjusted their offensive strategy for this game.
Let Griffin be the playmaker?
interesting!
Seeing Griffin, who frequently held the ball in the high post, Coach Terry touched his chin in surprise.
However, it is only a little interesting.
He does not believe that Griffin, who hastily rushed to the shelves, can catch up with Wang Zelin in terms of tacit understanding with his teammates and personal organizational skills.
As a result, the fans at the scene saw an extremely strange scene on the field.
Wang Zelin and Griffin are like a pair of mirror-image brothers, their playing styles are so similar.
But as the game continued and entered the second half, after the Trail Blazers suddenly increased their defensive intensity, Griffin, who had been playing smoothly in the front, suddenly made a series of mistakes. The most outrageous goal was to pay tribute to Odangdang and pass the ball to Odangdang. He walked to the sidelines to watch the battle, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
At this time, in the eyes of others, Griffin, who was still providing support from a high position, was no different from Dong Shi.
However, for some reason, even though Griffin made repeated mistakes, which further caused the only 8-point difference between the two sides to quickly expand to double digits in the first half, Rivers seemed to be sure that the Clippers would be able to play this way. It's like winning a game, but it's life and death without making adjustments.
In the end, the Trail Blazers won the G2 game at 114:91, easily gaining a 2:0 advantage in the series.
In a corner where no one noticed, when the game ended, Rivers looked up at the scoreboard and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's okay, it's okay, we only lost by 23 points!"
Good guy, this guy has no intention of winning tonight at all, he only wants to not repeat the same mistakes as the last game!
However, looking at Griffin who had not left the game after the game, Rivers felt a little bit of distress in his heart, but it quickly dissipated without a trace.
Tonight, Griffin played 34 minutes and scored 23 points and 10 rebounds, plus an extremely eye-catching 11 turnovers, completing an extraordinary triple-double!
Poor child, his mentality is probably broken now!
