Chapter 343 Boring Eastern Conference Playoffs?
Compared with the Western Conference, the Eastern Conference is somewhat dull. The Celtics and the Eagles are a set of matchups without any suspense. After all, the 66-win Celtics have won ten more games than the Lakers, who are No. [-] in the Western Conference. It has already been considered by many people to be the most promising team to win the championship this season. If it weren't for the fact that the data of the Big Three of the team is not much different, and there is no absolute core to be found, then this year It is impossible to have such a strong team's head player on the regular season MVP rankings.
The second-ranked Pistons in the Eastern Conference against the Raptors is also a set of matchups that are difficult to suspense. After all, although the Pistons are old, the precipitation and baptism of the years have made them very calm and sophisticated on both offense and defense, with a record of 59 wins. Tell the world that they are still the Detroit Pistons, no one will believe that they will be overturned by a young team like the Raptors in the playoffs, neither Chris Bosh nor Marion Can have such strength!
And the Bobcats against the Wizards. This is even more interesting. The outside world generally believes that this will be a very interesting battle. After all, both the Wizards' Arenas and the Bobcats' Gao Tian are offensive masters, and their favorite is Offensively, the only doubt is whether Arenas, who has recuperated for 69 games, will play. He only played a dozen games this season due to a knee injury.
Influenced by the team leader, the Wizards and the Bobcats are both offensive teams. The Bobcats rank fourth in the league in offensive efficiency, while the Wizards rank eighth in the league. The only difference is that although the Bobcats have poor defense, their There is no problem with their defensive attitude, so their defensive efficiency is No.15 in the league. The Bobcats' defense can barely rank in the middle of the league, but the Wizards are different. They averaged 96.6 points per game and 96.2 points per game. This shows how the Wizards' defense is.
Many people think that the Bobcats are really lucky, because they are a good opponent in the cruel and fierce playoffs. At least they will not be in desperation at the beginning, they can still have the opportunity to struggle and think, this is really a rare and valuable experience for the Bobcats next schedule!
The ratings of this game should be the highest in the first round of the NBA playoffs. After all, most fans like to watch offense the most, and the battle between Gao Tian and Arenas will definitely attract the attention of many neutral fans. , the defense wins the game and the offense wins the fans is no joke.
The most tragic and suspenseful series will undoubtedly be the fourth Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference against the fifth Magic. Howard, who won the rebounding title for the first time in his career, led the Magic to the team's best record in recent years. Because of some luck, they can only rank fifth in the Eastern Conference, but no one would think that the Magic will be weaker than the top teams in the Eastern Conference. Their progress has been rapid, and their strength is still obviously rising at the end of the regular season. In the end, they are only one game short of the fourth Cavaliers. In terms of strength, they are indeed no match for any team!
Needless to say, the Cavaliers, although after O'Neal's arrival, the team was far from performing as it should because of O'Neal's and James' possession of the ball and other issues, and even their winning percentage is not as good as when James led the team. However, O'Neal suddenly began to integrate into the Cavaliers' system when there were [-] games before the end of the regular season. From that time to now, the Cavaliers have only lost three games. How strong is the Cavaliers, so although the Cavaliers are only ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference, their strength is no worse than other teams.
After all, James and O'Neal in the playoffs are definitely not comparable to them in the regular season. How will the two of the top ten superstars in the league with the strongest performance join forces in the playoffs?How far can they go?
Many people are optimistic about the combination of the Cavaliers, but the only pity is that they met the Magic in the first round. It's not that the Cavaliers can't beat the Magic, but for the Cavaliers, the Magic are really two extremes!
Looking at the main players of the Cavaliers, LeBron James and Shaquille O'Neal, there is no one in this lineup!
But looking at the rest of the Cavaliers, if you don’t pay special attention to the Cavaliers fans, you won’t even know the rest of the Cavaliers’ starting players, because most fans won’t see the Cavaliers’ names on any list. For the four Cavaliers, such a lineup is too shabby, but there is no way, James and O'Neal have brought such a lineup to the present.
The Magic’s star players are Howard and Lewis. Compared with James and O’Neal, their apparent strength is simply weak, but if you look at the rest of the starting and bench players of the Magic and the Cavaliers, they are not on the same level at all. In the playoffs, it is really too difficult to win a round of series only by relying on stars. It requires extremely strict physical fitness for the leading stars, so experts from ESPN and TNT believe that this round of the two sides The series will go to the tiebreaker, and the key factors that determine this round of the series are the physical fitness of James and O'Neal and the Magic's outside shooting percentage!
Can James still average 40 minutes per game in the playoffs against the Magic's outside pursuit and interception and maintain the season average?
Who will be better in the matchup between O'Neal and Howard?
Can the magic perimeter, who averaged 25.3 three-pointers per game and hit 38.4 goals with a 9.8% shooting rate, still have such a performance in the fierce playoffs?
This round of the series may not be as good-looking as the series between the Bobcats and the Wizards, but whether it is in terms of excitement or unknown suspense, this round of the series is far more worthy of fans' attention than the series between the Bobcats and the Cavaliers Whether it is the matchup between the young O'Neal and the league's new star center Howard or James' performance in this round of the series, it will attract a lot of attention. The game process may be a bit dull or even ugly, but the result of the game is definitely enough to attract people's attention. !
And while the fans were arguing endlessly online and cheering wildly for their home team, finally after the votes of American and Canadian media reporters and basketball commentators, the result of the regular season MVP was announced!
The instant the result was seen, there was an uproar on the Internet, and even the fans of the Celtics and Lakers who had been yelling on the Internet were quiet for a while, because this result was indeed beyond the expectations of many people. Think of such a result.
