The Lakers defeated the Spurs, and the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Celtics and Magic games kicked off on the same day. ☆ → top ☆ → dot ☆ → small ☆ → said, www.

The previous first-round series consumed a lot of the Celtics' body, and the Celtics were in a passive position on the court for most of the game, although the Celtics fought back in the final quarter and eventually lost to the Magic 90-95, and the first game at home was not guaranteed, and the Magic led 1-0 overall.

The Magic didn't have an easy win, as they nearly lost their 28-point lead and eventually got through the game. Dwight. Howard contributed a double-double with 18 points and 22 rebounds, and he also had three blocks. Rassad. Lewis had 18 points and 7 rebounds, Turkoglu had 15 points and 5 assists, Alston had 8 points and 7 assists, and Michael had 7 assists. Petrus scored 17 points.

The Celtics struggled to advance to the second round, but now face a tougher shape, but the Big Three are healthy, and their road to defending their title has been bumpy, but judging by the Greens' near-28-point comeback in the second half, the Magic will have to be careful in the next game.

Kevin. Garnett is no longer able to face the top interior this year, facing the young and strong Howard of the Magic team, the 34-year-old Wolves only scored 9 points and 9 rebounds, and did not score rebounds in a double-double. Paul. Pierce scored 23 points, and Rajan. Rondo had 10 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists, and staged a magical triple-double. Allen 16 points, Glenn. Davis 10 points, Kendrick. Perkins had just four points but grabbed 12 rebounds.

Howard almost got a double 20 today, and he looked very excited after the Warcraft game, "I'm very proud. Buddy. If we want to consistently win in the playoffs and eventually bring the championship to Orlando. It is necessary to play the first half of the game at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends. But in the second half we were too underweight. We're going to stay focused the whole game. ”

Magic head coach Stan. Van Gundy said: "People don't know what kind of quality we have, they don't think we're good enough to win the title, but we do. We wouldn't be where we are without Dwight, but the other players want to prove what they can do. ”

The main point guard on the Orlando team today is former Rockets player Alstom, who was traded to the Magic in the middle of the season to replace the injured Denilson. When it comes to his old club, the street ball king is always on the look: "The Rockets are a great team. They have Yao and Marbury, and although they lost yesterday, I'm sure they can go far,"

After the game between the Magic and the Celtics, the first game of the Eastern and Western semifinals was all played, with the Los Angeles Clippers 1:0 Houston Rockets, and the Cleveland Cavaliers 1:0 Atlanta Hawks; Los Angeles Lakers 1:0 San Antonio Spurs, Orlando Magic 1:0 Boston Celtics.

In the playoffs, the semi-finals are now less pronounced than in the first round, with four pairs of teams battling each other. Either side winning to reach the divisional finals is not an upset. The semi-finals were also far more intense than the first round, and the ratings naturally increased. David. Stern was smiling even more than last year.

On May 7, the Rockets, who lost the first game, continued to visit the Stamp Center in Los Angeles to attack the Clippers, the Western hegemon.

In the last game, Yao Ming was not the offensive core of the Rockets, and the little giants were not in a foul crisis, with only four fouls in the whole game. But today, the Clippers consciously put Yao Ming into a foul crisis, and Yao Ming lived up to expectations, and was fouled by Billups and Ji Guoqiu in the first five minutes, and had to rest early.

The inside bench of the Rockets, David Lee and Mutombo may be able to temporarily replace Yao Ming in a certain aspect, but neither of these two can be offensive and defensive like Yao Ming, David Lee has a good offense, but the defense is average. Mutombo still has excellent interior defense and rebounding, but the offense equals 0.

In the last round, the Rockets played against the Trailblazers who only had Aldridge on the inside, and the danger of Yao Ming committing too many fouls was not so obvious, but in the face of the twin brothers, after Yao Ming was missing, the Rockets' interior line immediately had a rhythm of collapse.

The two brothers went on a killing spree inside in the first quarter, and Scola quickly picked up two fouls as well. Without Yao Ming defending in the penalty area, one of the two animals played in the low post, and the other broke through on the outside, and the Rockets' not too weak interior line did not last long, and was caused 6 fouls by the two brothers in the first quarter, two 2 fouls and two 1 fouls, which can only be described as tragic.

The score was 30:22 in the first quarter, the Rockets lost the inside, and the entire defense line allowed the Animal Brothers to play Maginow.

Adelman is helpless about this, the bag is absolutely not good, and the Clippers' two interior lines are in excellent condition, and they can't be covered at all. This situation can only depend on whether the stars of their own team can stand up, but Marbury was caught by the Clippers after Yao Ming was beaten, and it was difficult to make a difference.

In the last round, the Trail Blazers also beat Yao Ming in a few games, but their Blake was really bad, so Marbury played a solo savior several games in a row. But that didn't work today, the Clippers' bag made it impossible for Marbury to break inside, and with Billups' excellent defense, it was difficult for Marbury to play the role of savior.

Originally, there was a lack of internal and external cores, and the Rockets still had an Argentine actor who could attack in the low post, but Scola followed in the footsteps of Yao Ming two minutes later, and the little fox broke through Scola today when he had the opportunity, bullying the Argentine's footstep disadvantage, and causing Scola's two defensive fouls in only half a quarter.

The Rockets' three major offensive points all stopped, and it didn't take long for the Clippers to expand the score gap to double digits in the second quarter.

In the second quarter, after Yao Ming returned to the game, this time he only lasted 3 minutes, and at 8 minutes and 58 seconds in the second quarter, the little giant committed another offensive foul.

Ji Guoqiu performed a rare fake fall this time, and the effect was surprisingly good, and the referee did not hesitate to blow Yao Ming, the third foul in the eye.

Yao Ming finally got angry, returned to the sideline and kicked the bench hard, and then was shown a technical foul by the referee, which was the first technical foul in the playoffs of the Little Giant.

Domestic fans scolded Ji Guo at the moment, but at this time, the amount of domestic animal honey was not inferior to Yao Mi, and the idol was scolded, so he naturally had to fight back, this was the first time that fans on both sides started a war, and the two brothers had a large number of animal black for no reason.

Yao Ming went off the court again in the second quarter, and Adelman frantically replaced the backcourt combination of Boo, Lowry and Weaver. Not defensive at all. I can't prevent it anyway. It's better to fight the offense.

The Rockets' change of lineup had an effect, and Houston had often played in the absence of either Yao Ming or Maddy since the previous seasons, so they developed a tradition of role players often playing better than the main team. First, Wolfer hit mid-range shots one after another, and Boo, Lowry and David Lee added fuel to the fire, and the Rockets bench completed a wave of 13-4 offense, narrowing the gap to 6 points.

After the Clippers called a timeout, Billups hit two three-pointers from the outside. Stabilize the situation.

At the critical moment, David Lee and Xiaobu became the two most reliable points on the offensive end of the Rockets, especially Xiao Heidou, who made Billups very embarrassed by the pull-up jump shot after the two breakaways.

Today's Xiaobu played a star level, scoring 15 points in the second quarter, forcing the offensive firepower of Billups and Crawford, helping the Rockets to lead by 2 points at 58:56 at halftime.

The Rockets were equally embarrassed, with the bench helping them catch up with double-digit points and overtake them, which made them even more incompetent.

The Clippers were also embarrassed. They defended well enough, but the likes of Boo and Weaver were able to shoot. One of the breakthroughs of Little Black Bean was to go up the basketball under the joint defense of the two brothers, which made the two guys who defended for a while very embarrassed.

In the second half, Yao Ming was subjected to a targeted contraction inside defense when he was on the court, and the little giant still did not score on the offensive end. Bob and Marbury were also unable to break through the interior under the Clippers' shrinking defense, but fortunately, Boo's outside touch was still hot, and the Rockets relied on their backup point guard to support the court.

The Clippers team, under the leadership of Ji Guoyi, the angry little fox also shot and burst out, scoring the team's first eight points in the second half, and then assisted Ji Guoqiu to make a foul on Scola .

The Rockets did have a bad year today, and Scola only played a little more than a minute in the second half before committing a fourth foul, which was faster than Yao Ming. And look at Yao Ming again, the little giant has committed three fouls, and it is estimated that he will not last long. Domestic Rockets fans couldn't bear it anymore and scolded the black whistle at home, the Clippers are obviously the godson of the league, and Stern is going to do the Rockets in the semifinals and help his two illegitimate sons to secure the West.

Yes, although the three have different skin colors, domestic fans insist that the animal brother cliff is David. Stern's illegitimate son, didn't he see that all the benefits of this season were taken by the Clippers and the two animals?

Yao Ming was cautious in this section of the game, for fear that he would foul again, but the more careful he was, sometimes the faster the foul came. With 7:02 left in the quarter, Crawford broke through and caused Yao Ming to foul for the fourth time and hit both free throws, and the Clippers immediately completed a 16-5 offensive wave after killing Yao Ming, leading 73-62 and hitting a double-double again.

The Rockets players finally got a little out of control under such a shameless home whistle punishment. Lee then defended Ji Guoyi and maliciously fouled when he broke through to the layup, knocking the little fox over.

Ji Guo fell to the ground in shame and immediately rolled wittily......

Matt. Barnes rushed up and got into a verbal altercation with David Lee, and the two of them each ate a "t" under the scolding. Lee's previous foul on Ji Guoyi also ate a "T", and these two technical fouls were directly sent off the court. Barnes' ruse succeeded, and his provocation cost the Rockets another big man on the inside.

Ji Guozhi only got up slowly at this time, and jumped on the spot twice angrily, as if to see if he was injured. But you can jump as soon as you jump, why do you jump so high, isn't this a lack of beating?

After Mutombo replaced David Lee on the field, he couldn't help but go up and say something when he saw the dead fox's movements, and the players of the two teams rushed forward to greet each other, almost causing another conflict.

Fortunately, this time the referee was highly respected by Uncle Mu and did not pursue it, otherwise the Rockets might have to send another inside line.

The game was delayed for more than a minute, Battier hit a technical free throw, Ji Guoqiu hit both free throws, and then Ji Guoqiu also hit his two free throws, the score became 88:75, and the Clippers led the Rockets by a full 13 points.

The Rockets can only send Scola who committed four fouls on the court, and his partner is Mutombo, but the actor is worried about five fouls and does not dare to use force when defending, so that Ji Guosha's breakthrough is like no man's land, and he can easily score points on the inside line in a row. After the end of the third quarter, the score had become 96:79, and the Rockets trailed by 17 points.

After Yao Ming returned to the court, he consciously strengthened his attack, and even made free throws to suppress the two brothers, helping the Rockets to tie the score at 100:90 in the first 8 minutes of the game.

However, after two rounds, Ji Guoqiu hit a three-point shot, and then after Yao Ming missed an attack, Ji Guoyi elbowed Mu Tombo, who always scolded him for being a rabbit cub, when he grabbed a rebound, but Uncle Mu usually likes to attack other people's throat fillers, and as a result, the most controversial penalty of the game appeared, and the referee counterruled that Uncle Mu pushed people foul.

Uncle Mu was furious, and stepped forward to greet Ji Guosha with dirty words covering his throat, but he was blown a technical foul by the referee next to him.

The Rockets exploded at this time, Yao Ming stepped forward and didn't know what to say, and was once again whistled by the referee for a technical foul, and the little giant didn't understand what was going on, and was also sent off miserably.

Mutombo was angry and shook his finger at the referee, but it turned out to be another "t", followed by Yao Ming.

The little fox was frightened when he saw this scene, and secretly said what kind of rhythm is this? Does the godfather really want to escort it? It's so cool! (To be continued......) R527
