Four hundred and sixtieth IX opponents in the west

Updated: 2013-05-08

When the Cavaliers were swept out by the Celtics, the situation in the East was relatively clear. Anyway, these Boston animals didn't care whether the Pistons became the opponent or the Magic entered the Eastern Conference Finals.

Anyway, you are playing games and want to make it to the finals, you have to win at least four games. As for your opponent, is it so-called?

If the Magic team is at most, Howard will be defeated again. To deal with such a team that focuses on shooting, the Celtics' fierce defense will be the opponent's absolute nemesis and can firmly control the opponent's hit rate.

If you encounter Detroit, Furth can talk about revenge with Sanders. Last season, the Celtics suffered a loss and were successfully reversed by the Pistons in Detroit.

Can the Celtics remember this hatred? Boston's livestock have always been this tradition, and you will be repaid if you have hatred!

Although Garnett and the others hadn't come last season, Chen Feng did not forget the bad feeling when he stood on the sidelines and watched the team be eliminated. Similarly, he did not forget that he had already made a harsh statement and wanted to counterattack the Pistons!

"I'll just beat us up and let it go? That's right, I'm so sorry! I must be beaten back!"

This is what Chen Feng said privately when he watched the other two teams in the Eastern Conference fighting. It can be seen that this kid is still worried about losing to the Pistons last season. He has never forgotten this revenge.

However, the Celtics put enough pressure on Detroit last season and played until the final game to decide the outcome. Moreover, their personnel matching is not as thick as it is now, and their experience is more than just a little worse.

If this were to be said now, Rivers would definitely not give the opponent this opportunity. At least in terms of control of the situation, the Celtics rarely faced opponents at this moment. Even if the Pistons have a lot of experience, it would be useless.

The comparison of strength can make the experience advantage disappear. Just by judging from the regular season record of Boston and Detroit this season, the Pistons' weakness can be clearly seen.

The Celtics have the advantage at home and away games. Even if some people say that this is the Pistons' intentional avoidance, it is useless. The Celtics now have the advantage at home, and there is no need to say more about the fierceness of the North Shore Garden Arena.

Even Pistons head coach Sanders himself admitted that it was too difficult to win in Boston.

Detroit was not as weak as it is last season, but they were still a little scared by being beaten. As for now, the group of wild beasts in Boston are definitely more ferocious, and their fangs are sharper!

Although the Pistons could have overturned the Celtics strongly last season, the Detroits themselves know how heavy the price they paid in the end. If they don’t consume too much, can they lose to the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference Finals?

In their desperate battle with Boston, they had almost exhausted all their energy, and they took advantage of the Clevelanders in vain. Otherwise, last season might have been another battle between the Spurs and the Pistons.

But this season's Pistons still have to overcome the Magic's hurdle, and the Celtics have already started to rest early, sweeping both rounds of games, and this kind of pressure is not something that ordinary people can bear.

So, no matter whether the Pistons enter the Eastern Conference Finals or the Magic can pass this level, when they have to face the Celtics, they will feel invisible pressure because this opponent is really terrible.

When Garnett and Ray Allen joined Boston, the scale of strength had already tilted. The Pistons were left far behind by the Celtics in the regular season, which undoubtedly proved the real existence of this gap.

Although the Pistons are second in the Eastern Conference, there are more than a dozen wins between the two teams. This is not a gap, but it is not that easy for the Detroits to narrow the gap between each other.

Moreover, they failed to defeat the Magic with a four-to-one score. Detroit lost again at home. Although he lost five points in the end, this made many Orlando fans start to clamor for a counterattack again.

"We are at home in the sixth game! The score will definitely equalize! Then, we won twice at your home game. Even if we delay the seventh game, will the Detroits dare to say that they must guarantee victory?"

This is a post on the forum by an Orlando fanatic supporter that has won numerous echoes.

In fact, what's right, after all, the Pistons lost two home games. Although the score is still ahead, who dares to predict what will happen in the remaining two games?

If we can equalize the score at home, it is hard to say that the outcome of the seventh game is a matter of reversal. After all, it depends on a sense of excitement. Whoever can play crazier will be the winner.

For teams like Magic who survive on shooting, once they make three-pointers or mid-range offense go crazy, who can guarantee that they won’t play a very scary high score? The Pistons’ weakness is offense.

When your defense cannot curb your opponent and the offense has no ability to destroy, then there is no need to play this game.

The Magic relied on three-pointers of 13-for-24 shots to break the Pistons' tough defense. Their fire outside the three-point line was considered to crippling the Detroiters' most proud defense.

But how long can this powerful offensive shooting rate last? Can they ensure that they play so smoothly in every game?

At least Van Gundy couldn't give such a guarantee, so he could only say to the reporters, "We will do our best to fight. As for the result, I'm afraid even God can't guess it, so I can only say it's unknown."

This fat guy is still very rational. He didn't start screaming to make a comeback just because he scored a point. After all, the defensive obstacles created by the Pistons for the Orlando are still difficult to overcome.

You can't expect a gust of storm to solve everything. Even if the sixth game is a home game, Van Gundy is not sure whether he can win or not really depends on God's will.

It can only be said that these Orlando people did not intend to give up just like this. They were still fighting, while the Celtics team members continued to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight without responsibility, waiting for their next opponent to arrive.

The game in the Eastern Conference was quite calm, mainly because the Celtics were too fierce and swept two times in a row, which made many things lose their suspense. Even the media no longer likes to predict the results of these guys.

"There is nothing to predict. Now even if you tell me that these guys can sweep their opponents in the Eastern Conference Finals, I don't feel that anything is wrong. Their strength is so strong, who can stop it?"

This is not envy, jealousy, but a very accurate statement. The Celtics' outrageous performance in the playoffs has caused many people to have such thoughts, and these animals cannot be stopped.

At least this is the case in the East. Maybe the opponents who came out of the West can only wait for the snipers to attack these guys in the finals. The Eastern Conference's strong men are now a little overwhelmed when facing Boston.

Compared to the smoothness of the East, the West has been a bit of a desperate fight since the first round, but in the second round, this situation began to become more and more intense. All the games will almost be fought until the last moment.

Especially the confrontation between the experienced Spurs and the upstart Hornets has even carried out this fierce execution to the end. In the first four games, the New Orleans Hornets did not let the home court fall, and the Spurs also saved their victory at their doorstep. The 2-2 score makes it impossible to see who has a better chance to reach the Western Conference finals.

One is the second in the West and the other is the third in the West. Such a confrontation must be a madness of sparks.

And the fact is the same. Whoever has the advantage at home can defeat the opponent, but no one expected that the Hornets' attack could cause such a big trouble for the Spurs.

Especially in the first game, David West overwhelmed Duncan, who was known for his stability in the inside offense. His fierce attack caused a lot of trouble for the Spurs' defense.

30 points and 9 rebounds, which made Duncan look dull, but the Spurs' sophistication also got a perfect interpretation in the second game. Under Duncan's defense, West, who had a big hit in the first game, only scored 10 points and 10 rebounds in the second game, but Paul, who took over the game, began to explode.

One person shut down and the other person topped the top. This is why the Hornets finally won in the first two games. When West was so defensive that he could not take action, Paul began to lead the team with 30 points and 11 assists.

New Orleans are very fierce at home, but in San Antonio, they were also tortured by the old bones of the Spurs. In terms of playoff experience, it is obvious that those old guys have the advantage.

Especially Duncan and Parker, who were a little bored in the first two games, began to burst out with strong offensive firepower after returning to home, and Ginobili led the bench bandits to show their power.

After two failures, they immediately counterattacked twice on their territory. This is the rule of the Spurs. They will not let their opponents go wild in front of them, even if you are a new high-ranking team in the West!

After the current four games, the showdown between the Spurs and Hornets has become a situation of two wins in three games.

Anyway, judging from their previous game, this confrontation may be played for seven games, and it is still unknown who will win. Whether it is the experienced Spurs or the new generation of Hornets, they have their own advantages.

In addition to the fight between the pair, the Lakers and Jazz are also hard to tell. After Los Angeles swept the Nuggets in the first round, this time when they met Sloan's team, it was also a match for the game.

The main reason is that the "Zen Master" and Sloan are old enemies. From the Bulls era, they fought until Jackson arrived at the Lakers. These two old men also fought for more than ten years.

The two-to-two score also proves that the struggle between them must continue. Anyway, no matter who can reach the Western Conference Finals, it will be a battle of dragons and tigers.

However, before this, these guys must defeat their opponents. Such a fierce battle will make the Western battlefield a place for more people to pay attention to.

Because there is still suspense here, the confrontation will become crazy. The Lakers, the re-emerging champions of last season, the new generation of Hornets, and the tough Jazz, will stage their own Jedi counterattack.

As for whoever can make it to the finals in the end, they may encounter the strongest opponent, and the struggle between the east and west will continue to be written.
