() When the basketball touched the rim, the red light on the backboard had already turned on. The basketball that bounced off the edge of the rim did not maliciously provoke the emotions of the audience, but fell into the ball quite neatly.
in the net.
Oh~~~~~
The clear and sweet sound of the net passing through the net silently added two points for the Lakers.
Two points for sure victory!
Two points valid!
The referee made a firm and unquestionable gesture and blew the whistle to end the game. Before the basketball hit the net, the game time was over. Adrian did not leave any chance for the Nuggets to comeback. When
On the big screen, after the Lakers' score was undoubtedly increased by two points, Staples burst into loud cheers! The fans and audience clapped their palms vigorously, and loud applause filled the entire arena.
Agitated, like raging waves.
Adrian even heard someone calling his name!
Killer!
Undoubtedly a killer!
Before today's game started, many people expected that it would be an exciting battle between dragons and tigers, but even they probably didn't expect that the game would drag on until there would be near-wins and near-wins in succession.
But Adrian had a very special feeling after completing the winning goal. He was not very excited, but felt a sense of relief.
"We won." Kobe came to Adrian's side. His face looked a little weird. It showed the relief and excitement of winning the game, but there were also some other strange things.
"If possible, I really don't want to have a second experience." Looking at Kobe with a surprised look on his face, Adrian said tiredly: "Letting the game be delayed to this extent is very harmful to my heart.
Torture. If I could choose, I would rather win easily."
These words are half sincere and half false. They are sincere because Adrian really doesn’t like this situation of dragging the game to the last shot to decide the outcome. Being able to win the game easily and confirm the victory early, Ah
Derian prefers to take advantage of the overall situation, rather than this constant see-saw.
The pretense was because Adrian saw something wrong with Kobe's face. Obviously, Kobe must have had something in his heart about Adrian not handing the ball to him on the last shot. Instead, he chose to take the shot himself.
It's a grudge. After all, the last shot is not ordinary, and the symbolism it represents is extraordinary. No one can guarantee whether Kobe will have some thoughts because of it. Adrian thinks it is better to explain it himself.
Sure enough, Adrian found that Kobe's face looked much better after he said these words.
"No matter what, we won, let's celebrate."
Different from the Lakers' cheers and celebrations, as the losers, the Denver Nuggets naturally felt a bit desolate. They lowered their heads and left Staples amidst the overwhelming cheers.
After the first round of the Lakers vs. Nuggets, the other seven games of the playoffs also came to fruition. In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons easily defeated the Orlando Magic at home with a score of 100:92.
Although the Pistons' top five generals lack Big Ben, they are still not something that the immature World of Warcraft can challenge.
However, the Heat lost to the Bulls 91:96 at home. During the game, O'Neal showed his fatigue. Ben Wallace alone was very effective in defending O'Neal. In the NBA, Ben Wallace is one of the few
The center can fight O'Neal one-on-one, but this confrontation is on the defensive end. At the same time, because of his height, he has almost no possibility of blocking O'Neal. But he can hold his position under the basket and fight with strong strength.
Not giving O'Neal any space to make a comfortable shot greatly restricted O'Neal's performance.
Although in the long run, the multi-million dollar contract given to Ben Wallace by the Bulls will gradually become a junk contract. This is inevitable. Ben Wallace is only tall enough for a small forward.
However, a standard blue-collar player who plays the center position and has almost no other offensive methods except for the second offense after grabbing offensive rebounds will see his performance decline rapidly as he gets older.
But at least in this series against the Heat, because of the presence of Ben Wallace, the Heat's defeat is certain.
This time, everyone understands that O'Neal is really old. He can no longer carry a team forward as he did before. Wade's injury makes the Heat even worse.
The Toronto Raptors also suffered a defeat at home. After entering the playoffs, Jason Kidd, who had a relatively average regular season performance, burst out with terrifying firepower on the spot. He scored 14 points, 12 assists, and 9 rebounds as a luxury three-pointer.
Double data, leading the Nets to slay the Dragons in the away game 91:96.
The Cleveland Cavaliers, led by 'Little Emperor' LeBron James, defeated the Washington Wizards without a fight at home. The Cavaliers' strong defense prevented the Wizards' proud offense from being able to play.
In the West, in addition to the Lakers defeating the Nuggets, the Suns also defeated the Rockets by virtue of their home court advantage. Their running and gun offense faced off against the Rockets' defense. In the end, the Suns had the last laugh with their powerful offense. Stoudemire
Facing Yao Ming, I continued to produce crazy numbers of 27 points and 21 rebounds. A terrifying double-double shocked everyone. He was the best player in the eight-game series. Steve Nash's performance was also outstanding, with 17 points.
His 23 assists were no worse than Stoudemire's, and his 23 assists in a single game almost broke the record for the highest assists in a single game in the playoffs set by Magic Earvin Johnson. The difference was only one.
The terrifying state of the Suns' two leading stars has cast a shadow over the Rockets' promotion path. In contrast, the performance of the Rockets' two leading stars was a little worse. Yao Ming scored 27 points and 12 points.
The performance of three rebounds can be said to be very good, but the five turnovers seemed to be too many. But Tracy McGrady, another Rockets star, was very lost. After Raja Bell and
Under Marion's joint care, the Somnambulists were sleepwalking throughout the game and only scored 13 points, seemingly at a loss.
The passionate collision between the Spurs and the Jazz is still the spark, and the battle of wits and courage between the two veterans is also a topic of concern to the media. In the end, the Spurs relied on their home court advantage and more stable performance to win the first victory and then win the game.
97:93, grabbing the first victory of the series.
The most surprising matchup is the Dallas Mavericks vs. the Golden State Warriors.
The enemies faced off just like they did in history. Nelson led the Warriors to challenge the old team, the Dallas Mavericks, and the American Airlines Center took the lead in an upset. 'Little General' Johnson was well played by his mentor, Nelson, at his home court.
He learned a lesson so that he could understand the huge gap between himself and Coach Qian Sheng.
The game ended at 85:97, and the Warriors won their first victory of the series on the road. Throughout the game, the Warriors took the lead from the first minute and maintained the lead until the end of the game. In the second
At the beginning of the quarter, the Mavericks once tied the score, but were followed by a 7:0 shock wave by the Warriors. In the end, Nowitzki hit the buzzer, and the two sides ended with 38:38.
A dull first half.
In the second half, the situation suddenly changed. Baron Davis, the core of the Warriors, suddenly showed his power and scored 19 points in a single quarter, helping the Warriors establish a ten-point lead. This lead was maintained by the Warriors until the end of the game.
During the game, with substitutions and tactical adjustments made time and time again, Nelson suppressed Johnson, as if whatever changes Johnson made were under Nelson's control, and he had a way to deal with them.
This can't be blamed on Johnson's incompetence. It's really that Nelson knows this Mavericks team too well. Nelson is familiar with all the advantages, all the shortcomings, and all the tactical changes, although there have been some changes in the details of the personnel.
, but this Dallas Mavericks team is still the one built by Nelson.
The Mavericks' defeat at home can be said to be the biggest upset in the eight games of the league's eight-round series. No one expected that the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference would be completely suppressed by the No. 8 seed in the Western Conference at home, so that it seemed as if there was no way to fight back.
However, the Golden State Warriors, eighth in the Western Conference, behaved more like No. 1 in the Western Conference.
Determined, persistent and fearless!
But no one is still optimistic about the Golden State Warriors.
Most people still believe that the Mavericks will lose the first game at home, mostly because of their carelessness. Even the Mavericks themselves think so.
"We were not serious enough. We were too relaxed on the court, which allowed our opponents to seize the opportunity." The Mavericks' star player, the elegant German Dirk Nowitzki, was interviewed by the media.
That's what he said at the time. Although this is just one person's answer, there is no doubt that it also shows the overall attitude of the Mavericks.
Although they lost the first game, their arrogance has somewhat subdued. But obviously, the whole Mavericks team still believes that as long as they get serious and play to their own level, it will still be very simple to defeat the Warriors.
"We were too careless. The Warriors' tactics were very targeted. I was almost unprepared for this, but this kind of thing will never happen again." The words of Mavericks head coach 'Little General' Johnson are undoubtedly evidence.
.
Even in the media, almost no one is optimistic that the Warriors can defeat the Mavericks in the best-of-seven playoff format and complete the 'Black Eight Miracle'.
Since the ‘Black Eight Miracle’ is called a miracle, it is something that will only happen with a very small probability!
Obviously no one thought this would happen in the Warriors vs. Mavericks game. (To be continued.)
