"It's a season that will go down in history."

TNT and ESPN used the same headline to describe this past regular season.

Like they say, there are 6 super teams at the same time and there are two players who average triple-doubles per game, and that's the season that goes down in history.

And, of course, there's the much-anticipated playoffs.

With the regular season standings determined, the Eastern and Western playoff matchups are also released.

The eastern side.

Cavaliers vs Heat.

This is the most talked-about match in the first round of the Eastern Conference.

Wade and James, two old friends, James and Whiteside are both Heat veterans......

For the Heat, who stumbled through the playoffs on their final winning streak, they had to face the best team in the East.

Knicks vs Pacers.

Anthony and George, two of the league's top small forwards.

With the departure of David West and Hibbert, the Pacers are no longer as brave as they once were, and George's future with the Pacers is bleak.

If he can't make a breakthrough this year, George is likely to leave Indiana to develop him after his contract ends.

Raptors vs Hornets.

This is the second season in a row that the two sides have met in the playoffs, and the Raptors' trash brothers need to prove themselves, as does Walker.

Especially after a peak season, his playoff performance will directly determine his next contract.

And whether the Hornets can make it to the second round is also likely to determine Walker's final stay.

Hawks vs Bucks.

Brother Alphabet played the most improved player-level performance.

The young man who had cast envious glances at Tang Tian on the sidelines was now growing rapidly, but he still needed to prove more.

This side of the west.

Rockets vs Mavericks.

The Cavaliers and Heat in the East are the most talked-about first-round matchups, while the Rockets and Mavericks are the most talked-about group.

There are five super teams in the West, which means that two of them are bound to meet in the first round, and in the end, the Rockets and Mavericks are the two favorites to win the championship early.

One is a superstar staple, the other is an all-star team, and whoever wins in the end can win.

Spurs vs Trail Blazers.

The Trail Blazers have continued to have a productive season, but they are undoubtedly the victims of the superteam, and the first round against the Spurs is also a bad one.

Warriors vs Clippers.

Griffin suffered an injury this season and has been in a slump since his return, and the Clippers have little hope of breaking through the Warriors.

Pelicans vs Thunder.

The regular season clash between the two teams is still fresh in their minds, and if fans can't get enough of it, what will now be presented to them is an entire series.

With two days to go until the playoffs begin, the Pelicans sit first in the league and have home-court advantage over all teams.

They were relieved of the fatigue and rested for two days to prepare for the upcoming playoffs.

"Thunder, Don, it seems that your topic of truth and falsehood will continue forever."

In the first training session after the regular season, Bojan was joking about Tang Tian.

"He doesn't care about that anymore."

Without waiting for Tang Tian to speak, Dio said on the side.

Tang Tian glanced at Dio and pointed at him with a smile.

Sure enough, the old guy knew him.

The Pelicans are aiming to defend their title this season, and it doesn't really matter who they are against in the first round.

It's pretending to say it, but if you don't say it, the first round is for them to find their state.

In fact, after this season, he was thinking about whether his consistently high ball possession rate would hurt the team.

Although the data is good, the MVP selection will also have the upper hand.

But Jokic's visible regression this season, Davis's stagnation, in addition to the penalty scale, is also related to his high ball handling.

He's really the best on the team, and he's the most efficient way to play with the ball, but basketball is a five-man sport after all, and the first round is an opportunity to adjust.

The playoffs haven't officially started yet, and the league has announced the first two awards of the season at this time.

One is the best manager.

As a result, Kerr received 31 percent of the vote, beating out Stevens and Lue to win the Coach of the Season award.

It was also the first time in his coaching career that he was elected.

From leading the team to win the championship on his debut to leading the team to 73 wins, Kerr's performance in the past two years has been getting better and better year by year, but he just can't win the best head coach.

This season he finally got his wish.

However, in addition to his own performance, he was elected this season thanks to Stevens.

After all, the latter was elected last season, and this season will basically be automatically filtered.

Otherwise, with the Pelicans' 70-win record, Stevens would be the one who was ultimately elected.

But no matter what, it took the Warriors three seasons to finally get the honor that the Pelicans got in one season.

The best head coach went to the Bay Area, and the Most Improved Award went to Milwaukee.

Alphabet brother Giannis Antetokounmpo was elected for this award with an outstanding performance, with more than 50% of the vote.

However, this is obviously just the beginning for him, and the goal of this big-year James is to impact history and hit the position of the first person in the Tang Tian League.

Both Kerr and Antetokounmpo chose to present the awards at the time of the playoff opener.

They obviously want to continue the "award law" that Tang Tian created at the Spurs to create a good start to the playoffs.

Two days later, the playoffs officially began.

The Knicks, Pacers, Raptors and Hornets in the East, and the Pelicans, Thunder, and Rockets and Mavericks in the West took the lead.

The game between the Raptors and Hornets starts first, and the Pelicans and Thunder last.

At this time, the happiest people are the fans, who play four playoff games a day, and there are games every day.

The Pelicans finished training early, and Tang Tian also watched the first game of the Raptors and Hornets with Davis in the locker room.

The Raptors have Lowry and DeRozan, as well as Serge Ibaka and Valanciunas, but the Hornets only have one clearly premium Batum other than Walker.

On paper, the Hornets have no chance of winning.

However, after the game started, the scene was different from what the fans imagined.

In the first half, the Raptors led the Hornets 50-35, and Lowry and DeRozan combined for 25 points, and everything was still as expected.

But in the second half, the Hornets' Walker suddenly fell into a rampage, and the Raptors were completely lost in his sudden shooting and defensive counterattack.

In the Hornets' counterattack, Lowry and DeRozan were both invisible.

Walker scored 20 points in the quarter, and the Hornets also erased the difference in the first quarter.

In the final quarter, Walker continued to play bravely, and finally led the Hornets to defeat the Raptors 93-83 and successfully completed the following gram.

The Trash Brothers, as always, scored 25 points in the first half and only scored 10 points in the second half.

And Walker exploded with 43 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, and no one could stop him.

"Kemba is playing like Iverson and it's going to be nice for us to play with him."

Davis let out an inexplicable sigh.
