The four groups of duels in the first round of the East are:

The Pacers against the Knicks,

The Cavaliers against the heat,

The nets against the Bucks,

The pistons play the Hornets.

The four groups of duels in the first round of the West are:

Timberwolves vs. nuggets,

Kings vs Mavericks,

Spurs vs Grizzlies,

The Lakers play the Rockets.

The teams of James, Wade and Anthony have entered the playoffs. They meet to celebrate. Of course, James is the one who pays the bill, because his Cavaliers have the best record.

"Damn it, our two teams met in the first round." Wade shook the glass in his hand and said to James, "I don't want to meet you. In that case, we can only have one to enter the second round."

"Ha ha, I'm looking forward to the duel between you two in the playoffs!" Anthony took a sip of wine and said.

"You should win one or two less games and let the Hornets win one more game than you and rank ahead of you, so that we can avoid it." James smiled and patted Wade on the shoulder.

"I hate to fight you. You're such a tough guy." Wade thought of the recent scene of being abused by James alone with James. It was really unpleasant.

"Ha ha, I really enjoy fighting you." James twisted with laughter.

Wade felt that if he was shot with a knife in his heart, he could talk happily. He took a gulp of wine and didn't answer James.

But Anthony immediately threw a knife at him. "I'm looking forward to our trip together in the summer. It will be great and pleasant, won't it, Wade?"

Wade took another gulp of wine and was depressed.

Wade put forward the proposal that the team whose record was poor should be responsible for paying for the travel and vacation together. When he put forward it, the record of the heat and the Nuggets was half the same, but the heat had a little advantage and won one more game than the Nuggets.

Then he confidently proposed a bet with Anthony. After Anthony agreed, he wanted to pull James in to guarantee the bottom.

Unexpectedly, at the end of the season, James's Cavaliers had the best record among the three of them, and although his heat ranked fifth in the East, it was still worse than the Nuggets ranked eighth in the West.

"It will certainly make everyone have a good time." Wade swallowed the wine and said.

"I think of a good way to play. Why don't we bet on who loses and who wins in the first round of the playoffs?" Anthony suggested.

"Go, go, go, stir up discord!" Wade waved.

Anthony laughed.

James turned his eyes and rubbed his face. "It's a good idea to change Anthony's proposal. Why don't we gamble and see who can pass the first round of the playoffs?"

"This can be! Ha ha... "Hearing James' proposal, Wade was happy.

When the heat played against James's Cavaliers, they won or lost. It's really hard to say who won or lost in the playoffs.

However, Anthony's nuggets are against the forest wolves, the largest team in the West. The strength gap between the two teams is really a little big. It's hard for the Nuggets to want black eight, so Anthony thought about the first round, which is probably impossible.

So Wade agreed at once. He doesn't necessarily lose.

Anthony is not stupid, not on the set, refused to agree.

"Do you think you will lose to the Timberwolves and that you are inferior to the Timberwolves? You admit defeat before the playoffs start? Anthony, aren't you a coward? You can't do that. You're still as famous as LeBron. " Wade took words to stimulate Anthony.

Anthony was really not excited. "I won't admit defeat! Bet! Who is afraid of who? Anyway, one of you will not pass the first round. Even if I lose, someone will accompany me. "

"What about those who lose?" Anthony looked at James and asked that James had put forward the proposal.

"In this way, those who can't pass the first round should give a promise to those who have passed the first round and promise to do something for those who have passed the first round." James thought about it and said, "for example, if I win, you have to give me a promise. I can use it or not. It depends on my mood. Of course, this thing will not be a matter of murder and arson, which we are able to do. Vice versa. If I lose, I will also give you a promise to do something for you. "

Wade and Anthony looked at each other. Wade reached out and rubbed his bulging cheeks. Recently, he was much closer to James and was infected by James's action of rubbing his face.

"I have no problem. I don't have to lose anyway. I agree." Wade said first, "when I win, I'll ask you to do something fun, ha ha..."

"I'm ok, no problem." Anthony hesitated and said that he also knew that he was probably one of the losers. Could the Nuggets beat the Timberwolves? He was really not confident, but one of the two people in front of him would be with him, so he nodded and agreed. Anyway, it was not just himself who lost.

"Hey, hey, that's such a happy decision!" James picked up his glass, stood up and motioned for everyone to touch a glass.

"Come on, cheers to our first playoff!" James said.

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

The three people's cups collided. The playoffs are finally coming.

(ask for a ticket count...)
