The victory in the first game made the Miami Heat full of confidence.
Facing opponents like the Atlanta Hawks who were not a threat, they continued to exert strength in the next few games.
In the second game, the Heat continued to play at home. This time the Big Three led the Heat to a double-digit advantage in the first half. In the second half, the Heat continued to send out the second team, but the Hawks still had no way to limit the combination of Zhao Feiyang and Ray Allen.
As a result, the second game finally ended with a 9-point gap.
After 2-0, the Heat left Miami for Atlanta.
After coming to the Eagles' home court, the Eagles really wanted to get back in the game. Taking advantage of their home court, the Eagles performed well in the first quarter of the third game. The entire team felt hot and continued to use outside scoring to their advantage.
Of course, the Big Three also worked very hard. Even though the Eagles' offense was quite fierce, they kept holding on to the score and did not let go.
By the second quarter, the Eagles offense looked tired.
Taking this opportunity, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra once again put on the second team. In order to protect the rebounds inside, coach Eric specifically asked Chris Bosh to stay on the court this time.
Therefore, the second team took advantage of the situation to pursue, and after a whole quarter of chasing, they finally successfully widened the score gap.
After the second half came, relying on the advantage established by the second team, the Big Three once again exerted their strength. LeBron James continued to succeed in singles, almost piercing the Eagles' defense.
The Hawks were also anxious because of the huge problems exposed on the defensive end. After many changes, they were successfully pulled away by the Miami Heat.
Although the Eagles players were chasing after them and still tried to chase with long shots at the last moment, their overall strength was too weak and they could be said to be vulnerable in front of the Big Three.
As a result, the game finally ended with 109 to 100.
The big score of 3-0 also made fans of both teams gradually understand the fact that the Eagles simply do not have the strength to compete with the Heat.
There has never been a shortage of "black eight" teams in the history of the league, and some people have successfully defeated the first place as a fringe team. Unfortunately, there are not many such examples.
Most of the time, the eighth-ranked team is a stepping stone to the first-ranked team.
The last game is still played away from home.
There was no suspense in this game, and it became garbage time in the third quarter. The Eagles players were all lethargic and seemed to have given up from the moment the game started, so the game ended smoothly.
The Heat also defeated the Hawks with a score of 103-86.
The ending of the 4-0 sweep is undoubtedly exciting news for the Heat.
After winning the first round, the Heat entered the break.
Before the second round, the players need to take time to rest and ensure that their bodies are in the most stable and healthy state.
Other teams in the Eastern Conference are also playing very hotly.
The Indiana Pacers and Charlotte Hornets battled into Game 5. The two sides were tied at 2-2, and the situation looked very anxious.
However, judging from the match between the two teams, the Indiana Pacers obviously have a higher winning rate.
The Chicago Bulls and Washington Wizards tied 1-3.
After the team's soul, Derrick Rose, was retired for the season, the Bulls have become a leaderless team. Therefore, the game between the two teams was completely one-sided. If the Bulls hadn't struggled hard, they wouldn't even have won that victory.
The Washington Wizards, who won the match point, are also very excited. They have even begun preparing for the second round.
The Toronto Raptors and Brooklyn Nets were evenly matched, with the two teams tied at 2-2.
The gap in their rankings is not big. One is ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference, and the other is ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference.
From the first game, the battle between the two teams entered a fierce stage. The Raptors' "Twin Stars" continued to rely on their combination to put pressure on the Nets. Although Brooklyn's team lineup was messy, they had Deron. Veteran stars like Williams and Paul Pierce.
There are also a group of young role players in the team. Their strength is not too strong but not too bad. They may not be able to beat a super strong team like the Heat, but they are still able to fight against an opponent of the Raptors' level.
The situation in the Eastern Conference is such that it is not a big problem for the Heat, so the atmosphere at the top and bottom of the team is quite relaxed.
It was also the day after the first round of the playoffs that team general manager Pat Riley took the initiative to find Zhao Feiyang.
"Zhao, don't be in a hurry to leave after training...come to my office to talk!"
Zhao Feiyang was stunned by Pat Riley's words.
But soon, he guessed the other party's intention.
After the training, he came to Pat Riley's office.
Compared to Pat Riley's arrogance when they first met, Pat Riley was much more polite this time. Not only did he take the initiative to shake hands with Zhao Feiyang, but he also made him a cup of coffee and delivered it to the table in front of the conference room.
The two sat opposite each other. Pat Riley was very relaxed. He crossed his legs and leaned on the sofa to look at Zhao Feiyang.
"Zhao, you have been with the team for a while...how do you feel? Can you still adapt to the weather in Miami?"
"It's not bad. I like the atmosphere of the Heat better than the weather in Miami."
Pat Riley was very happy to hear Zhao Feiyang say this.
"Of course. This is what it should be! We are a championship-level team that is constantly chasing victory. Compared with a team like the Lakers, which is constantly fighting among themselves, outstanding players like you are obviously more suitable to join us... ..”
As he spoke, Pat Riley suddenly changed the subject, "So, do you have any plans to stay in Miami? I mean, your contract is only for one year, maybe it's time for us to talk about a new contract. Things..."
"Regardless of whether we can win the championship this season, our goal next season is still the championship! This is the goal of a super team like ours, and it is also our destiny... Maybe some players will leave by then, and some will Some new blood coming in..."
"But I can assure you that players like you are exactly what we need... No matter who leaves or is traded, you are an important part of the team and cannot be part of the Heat's championship puzzle. without you......."
Pat Riley finally revealed his purpose.
Zhao Feiyang was not surprised.
He did not refuse, but asked Pat Riley, "Mr. Pat, if I am willing to stay with the Heat next season, what price can you offer me?"
