Popular recommendation:

As the Knicks eliminated the Magic 4:2.

Another group of games in the Eastern Conference semifinals will soon be decided.

The Cavaliers led by James still failed to withstand the impact of the Celtics' Big Three.

After defeating the Celtics 124:95 in G3, the Cavaliers took a 2:1 lead.

But in the next game, the Celtics did not give the Cavaliers any chance. In the next three games, they easily won the Cavaliers with 97:87; 120:88; 94:85.

Especially in G5, at the end of the game, the Cavaliers trailed the Celtics by 32 points.

At the end of the first quarter, the Cavaliers still led by three points at 23:20.

But after changing to the rotation lineup in the second quarter, the Cavaliers' rotation lineup failed to withstand the Celtics' defense. Especially in the second half of the second quarter, Garnett took the lead inside and made a wave of mid-range shots, directly catching up with the Celtics. And opened the score.

At the end of the second quarter, the Celtics entered the second half with a 50:44 lead of six points.

Entering the second half, the Celtics' defense was stronger, and each round was basically accompanied by a lot of physical contact. The Cavaliers couldn't find any touch in their shots due to their enhanced defense in the second half.

They can only rely on James to score alone.

But the Celtics used the time in the third quarter to keep firing. The Celtics were fully opened up in the third quarter, and the game ended in the third quarter, 80:63!

The Cavaliers entered the fourth quarter behind 17 points!

The Celtics didn't give the Cavaliers any chance in the fourth quarter.

Garnett continued to attack inside, Ray Allen and Pierce continued to fire outside, and the score gap was getting wider and wider.

With only four minutes left before the end of the game, Mike Brown replaced James and announced his surrender!

G6 returned to the Celtics' home court, and the Cavaliers did not make waves. In the end, they were eliminated by the Celtics with a big score of 4:2.

After the game, James was a little dazed. The mountain of the Celtics was too difficult for him to overcome alone.

Since the formation of the Big Three, the Cavaliers have fallen under the same team for two years.

Duncan said that the future is his own, is he lying to himself?

What kind of future is this? Every year in the playoffs, three old hooligans will take turns to rub against each other.

At this moment, James really can't see any hope of reaching the top in Cleveland.

After the game, players from both sides shook hands.

In the end, Garnett left James with a sentence like in history: "Don't let loyalty kill you!"

These words echoed in James' mind for a long time.

Yes, it's time to think about your honor!

Garnett probably didn't expect that his unintentional sentence would have a huge impact on James.

Lian Dao watched the entire semifinal match between the Cavaliers and the Celtics. After watching the game, Lian Dao also remained silent for a long time!

"Strong, really strong!" This was the Celtics' first feeling for Lian Dao.

Not only is the defense strong, but the offense is also very strong!

The Big Three, who pretended to be dead in the regular season, seemed to have evolved after entering the playoffs. The dominance at both ends of the offense and defense made Lian Dao not only take a deep breath after seeing it.

After the opponents in the Eastern Conference finals were determined, D'Antoni didn't have a good strategy against the Celtics. You must know that facing the Celtics in the regular season, they often gave up selectively.

But, this is the Eastern Conference Finals!

Moreover, the Celtics' interior is more difficult to limit than the Magic. The Magic only has one Howard strong. Lian Dao can also come to the interior to limit the defense, but the Celtics' interior is overall strong. , Garnett in the fourth position does not need to say more, their strength in the fifth position is not inferior.

Both Rasheed Wallace and Kendrick Perkins are stronger than the Knicks' current fifth position in terms of technology and experience.

And it is impossible for Lian Dao to go inside this time, Gallinari is not Pierce's opponent!

D'Antoni needs Lian Dao to limit Pierce's performance on the outside!

…

In the west, the Sunstorm eliminated the Spurs 4:0 early.

During this trip to the playoffs, Popovich also deeply realized that Duncan's benefits were not much left by him. Even if Duncan still has a great advantage in the fourth and fifth positions in the future, but But it's far from being invincible.

Popovich is also determined to seek new breakthroughs. Looking at the young Parker and the relatively young Ginobili, Popovich chooses to shift the core of the team's offense, while constantly looking for a new generation of rookies who can succeed Duncan. players!

The defending champion Lakers, wrapped in an invincible posture, also swept the Jazz 4:0.

Deron Williams averaged 22 points and 8.8 assists in four games, playing bravely, but Deron became more and more dissatisfied with Jerry Sloan's tactical arrangements in the game.

The offense that he could handle by himself, but the old man wanted to pass the ball by himself. Even if it was a goal, he still didn't get any praise from Jerry Sloan. On the contrary, he was reprimanded by Jerry Sloan for not knowing the cooperation of his teammates.

Always put the old pick-and-roll tricks on his lips, really an antique!

He wanted to be a superstar like Kobe, but Jerry Sloan wanted him to be a selfless traditional point guard like Stockton.

If he was fledgling before, Deron Williams could still do it obediently.

However, to try the fun of offense, Deron Williams, who was sought after by all the fans, didn't want to play any troublesome pick-and-rolls according to the coach's arrangement.

He just wants to go to the basket alone, put the ball into the basket, and enjoy the cheers and pursuit of the fans in the audience!

But this is Utah City, one of the few teams in the league where the head coach is bigger than the star player.

If he doesn't want to sit on the bench, he can only play according to Jerry Sloan's arrangement!

It can be said that this playoffs planted a seed in the heart of Deron Williams to leave Utah City!

…

"Sickle, I look forward to meeting you in the Eastern Conference Finals!"

Lian Dao lay on the bed, looking at the text message on the phone, feeling a little uneasy!

What the **** does that mean?

The mobile phone number that sent the text message was an unfamiliar number, Lian Dao had never seen it before, and he was very sure that there was no such number among his friends.

But seeing the special remarks below, Lian Dao understood.

“Greetings from Kevin Jagged Garnett!”

Um? What does this mean, a psychological offensive before going to war? It still means blatantly looking down on the Knicks. Or, see the Knicks as a mob leading to a championship?

Moreover, this tone, are you sure it is Kevin Garnett who keeps talking trash during the game?

This guy greeted Duncan's mother directly when Duncan made a free throw You must know that Duncan's mother passed away when he was 14 years old.

This means that Duncan learned psychology. If he were to switch to other grumpy players, Garnett would be punished high and low, and after the game, he would still be dead!

When Lian Dao was playing against the Celtics, he had seen this guy's trash talking. Of course, he didn't dare to talk too embarrassingly to Lian Dao.

After all, O'Neal and Bogut had been lying in the hospital for a long time before that.

Although Garnett is called a "hard guy", but this family is a typical bullying and fearing the hard, otherwise it would not have happened in history. After greeting Anthony's wife, Anthony gathered a group of people and blocked him in the locker room. He dared to open the door, and then was blocked by Anthony on the team bus and dared not get off.

He is also worried that he will follow in Bogut's footsteps, so for Lian Dao, he will not offend him if he can. You must know that Lian Dao is famous for his vengeful character in the alliance!

Also, how did this guy get his phone number, it seems that I don't know him very well?

Although the two participated in this year's All-Star Game, Lian Dao and Garnett did not say more than ten sentences in total. The main reason was that the three giants of the Celtics were united together, and they did not like Lian Dao and their new generation at all. rookie.

Lian Dao didn't worry too much about how Garnett knew his mobile phone number. Many people in the league knew Lian Dao's mobile phone number, so Garnett only needed a little research to know Lian Dao's number.

Not to mention anything else, James and Lian Dao exchanged phone numbers.
