Chapter 476: Lack of Virtue SMS

The Lakers beat the Hornets at home, and on the other side, the Portland Rose Garden was full of people, and the first round of the first-round playoffs of the much-anticipated Rockets vs. Trail Blazers was held here, and Portland fans have not seen their own team's playoffs for a long time. 『≤『≤,

It's a pity that Portland fans didn't see a victory, but Yao Ming's best performance in the playoffs in seven years of his career in this game, and the little giant scored 24 points on 9-of-9 shooting in the first half, leading the Rockets to lead by 18 points into the second half. In the third quarter, Marbury and Scola teamed up to score 20 points, Yao Ming did not play in garbage time in the last 18 minutes of the game, and finally the Rockets beat the Trail Blazers by 27 points at 108-81.

The Little Giants are now the No. 1 center in the West, or the No. 2 center, and it's no longer clear after Brother Panda's season, but considering the weight of MVP and the best defensive player, Ji Guoqiu has become the No. 1 center in the league today.

However, Yao Ming was like a god today, hitting 100 shots in the first half and scoring 24 points in the half, setting a personal playoff record. It's a pity that Yao Ming was affected by a foul in the second half, played less than 6 minutes, and didn't score again. In addition, Yao Ming also grabbed 9 rebounds and blocked 2 times.

After the Rockets traded Maddy, another outside core Stephen. Marbury also had a good playoff appearance, and his breakthrough and long-range shooting reminded Rockets fans of the old Fergus, and the two did have some similarities in their playing styles in some places, with the transformed Lone Wolves scoring 19 points and nine assists on the sidelines, becoming the second contributor to the Rockets' win today.

After Morey's game, it is said that he has offered Marbury a three-year, $36 million contract. The latter gladly accepted. Just wait for a new contract to be signed in the summer. Continue to shine in the rocket. According to some sources, Marbury was originally waiting for the base salary to join the Clippers after the contract expires. But even he didn't expect him to be so comfortable with the Rockets, and said that he was happy to play here and would not consider leaving in the summer.

Indeed, it can be seen that Marbury is having a lot of fun with the Rockets, you know. He is now playing his own value again, and the league's team that lacks a point guard will not skimp on 12 million this summer, but he has no interest in even thinking about it, which shows that he is also a lover. In the Rockets, Yao Ming, a big man without the slightest shelf, made Marbury, who was very injured in New York, feel very comfortable. In the regular season this season, Marbury averaged 18.2 points, 8.6 assists and 1.1 steals per game for the Rockets.

The Trail Blazers lacked experience and were defenseless in their first playoff game. Brandon. Roy scored 21 points and was the only player in the Trail Blazers' starter to score 20 points. Second-leader Aldridge didn't make a difference on the inside. Only 10 points and 6 rebounds were on the books.

In the East, the Bulls won a surprise home win over the league leaders, and a thrilling overtime chance to get through the battle. Champion Xiu Derek. Rose had 36 points and 11 assists in his playoff debut. Gordon scored 20 points, and Joakim. Noah had 11 points and 17 rebounds, and Tyrus. Thomas 16 points, John. Salmons 12 points.

LeBron. James had 40 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists. Brand left the game in the third quarter with an injury and only had 13 points and 5 rebounds, while Ilgoskas had 12 points and 10 rebounds. West & Mo. Williams scored 12 points each.

Although it was Rose's first game today, he looked very sophisticated, and he scored 12 points in the third quarter to help the Bulls take the lead.

The old captain was hit by a knee in a defensive game in the third quarter by a breakaway Rose and had to leave the court for treatment. After the game, the Cavaliers got bad news, the old captain will have to recover from an injury for two weeks, and he will definitely not be able to return in the first round, and if the Cavaliers can make it to the second round, Brand is likely to miss the first two games.

As soon as the playoffs began, the Cavaliers lost their interior pillar and were robbed of one at home, and the situation became very dangerous. The Cavaliers should think carefully now, their next game is bound to change, injuries are fiercer than tigers, once they encounter injuries, it is not impossible for the league to be blacked out, and the Cavaliers' playoff journey immediately becomes uncertain.

In another first-round matchup in the East, the Orlando Magic faced the Philadelphia 76ers, and the 76ers completed an 18-point comeback in the second half. Andre. Iguodala hit the winning shot to finish with 20 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists. Williams 18 points, Andre. Miller scored 15 points, and Thaddeus. Young 14 points, veteran Doyer. All of Marshall's 11 points came in the fourth quarter.

"Warcraft" Dwight. Howard had 31 points and 16 rebounds. Lee 18 points, Rashad . Lewis 15 points, Raff. Alston had 15 points and five assists.

The Magic have only once passed the first round of the playoffs in the last 12 years, and this year they have high hopes for the playoffs. Van Gundy was full of confidence, "If we don't get deep enough into the playoffs, then he and I are the most likely to be fired," Van Gundy even joked before the game.

Therefore, the Yankees just don't know how to save character, they are not so easy on the court, the Magic was stubbornly sniped by the 76ers, and the 18-point lead was actually overturned by the 76ers, and the good situation was lost in vain. As soon as the East came up this year, the two teams with home advantage suffered counterattacks one after another, and the situation became very suspenseful.

Ji Guoyan was the happiest at the moment, the gorilla was unlucky, he was so happy that he hurriedly sent an anonymous text message after the game, and ridiculed James, I don't know if the latter was angry when he saw the text message? Anyway, every time he loses, he will receive a bunch of congratulatory text messages, so now the dead fox will quickly send a text message to greet him when he sees that his unhappy guy is losing.

He doesn't know, among the stars in the league now, I don't know who started first, in short, every time everyone loses, they will receive a bunch of greeting text messages. So when James unexpectedly lost, Ji Guoyi, Kobe, Pierce and others immediately picked up the mobile phones specially used to send harassing text messages, and sent cordial greetings to the gorillas, hoping that the Cavaliers would continue to work hard and continue to lose.

"Two from Los Angeles, two from Boston, and even Miami...... These bastards. I'm an idiot! "James saw the text message in the locker room after the game. Who sent the text message, do you still have to think about it? Those two bastards in Los Angeles. Who else but Kobe Bryant and Dead Fox would be so boring? There are also the Dead Cheeks, who are so lacking in morality, and Miami doesn't have two teams.

Back in Los Angeles, the Thunder are said to have arrived in the City of Angels early, and outside the hotel where they stayed, Clippers fans who lacked the same morality as their core teamed up to go and sing the March of the Volunteers, in order to influence the Thunder's preparations. Cheering for his team, many people were arrested by the police for coffee. But the Los Angeles police didn't embarrass them, just made a show and let the coffee go.

Durant has been among the best in the team and in the league this season. In addition, the All-Star Weekend rookie game came home again, but the next day he won the Horse Shooting Contest crown, which was the only individual honor that Little Bag won this season.

Last season. Under his leadership, the Thunder was defeated repeatedly, but repeatedly defeated. However, this season, the team has strengthened, especially after spending a lot of money to get Artest, Durant can finally lead the team to play a bright role in the new home of Ohio City. Durant, the leader of the team, worked hard last offseason to gain 8 pounds at one point, and although the weight gain is still only 220 pounds, Durant's offensive ability will test the defensive ability of the Clippers' backcourt players.

Ji Guoyi had a strange expression on his face before the game, and said to the media: "The Thunder has a lot of potential new stars, and we want to bully them fiercely while they haven't grown up yet!" ”

Naturally, the Oklahoma media was not willing to die Fox so arrogantly, and some reporters fought back, thinking that Derek in the East. Rose has already set a benchmark for the Thunder, so don't look down on eighth, and the Clippers also bloodied the Spurs in eighth place last year.

Ji Guoyan showed a disdainful expression when he heard this, stretched out two fingers, and said, "Do you know what it means to defend for a while?" We have two! ”

In this game, as Ji Guoyi said, the defending champion taught the Thunder a good lesson with defense.

The Clippers did not change their starting lineup for the regular season today: Billups, Afralo, Garcia, Ji Guoyi, and Ji Guoqiu.

The Thunder sent: Westbrook, Durant, Artest, Jeff. Green, Collisson.

The Clippers' twin towers had a clear advantage, with the two brothers scoring two points each in the opening game to help the Clippers take the opening lead. Then, after a few minutes of stalemate between the two sides, the Clippers began to strengthen their defense, and they allowed the Thunder to score only four points in the last six and a half minutes of the quarter, and only two points in the last four minutes, while they themselves relied on strong attacks and continuous counterattacks to score 28 points in a single quarter, and finally ended the first quarter with a 28-12 lead, and the Thunder scored less than half of the Clippers.

Defensive counterattack + inside high shot, the outside line occasionally shoots two cold arrows, the two defensive giants of the Thunder team can't see any power at all, after all, the core of the Clippers is the inside line, Artest can only spread his hands in the face of the two brothers' use of height to win the play, saying that he is only 200cm, not the person who does this job.

In the second quarter, the trio of Dragic, Crawford and Barnes extended the deficit to 16 points, and the margin lasted for more than half a quarter, and the Clippers still led 38-22 in the final six minutes. But then the Thunder began to wake up, and Durant learned to use his height to force Garcia and Barnes.

The Clippers did not use Ji Guosha to defend Durant, everyone speculated that the Clippers would do this, but the elder Dunleavy did not feel that he had to use his trump card to play the Thunder, the fox brother was prepared for James, Durant was not eligible for this treatment for the time being, and the Clippers used Garcia and Barnes to take turns to defend Durant.

Durant's normal range, that is, more than 20 points in a game, this damage the Clippers don't care at all, not to mention that the Thunder except Durant, no one can contribute to the output of stable dìng, especially Westbrook in the playoffs completely lost the style of the regular season, in the face of the 32-year-old Billups, Westbrook couldn't play his sharp breakthrough at all, Mr. Key used his rich experience, coupled with the timely filling of the inside, easily strangled this stunned green who could only break through and had no basket.

At the end of the half, the score was 58:33, and the Clippers took half a game to make the game lose suspense, and the 25-point gap made the Thunder players look like ashes.

The Thunder players only played half a game before they suffered a devastating blow, and it was not terrible to fall behind by a big score, but the terrible thing was that the Clippers didn't make much effort at all, but they strengthened their defense, and as a result, they killed the Thunder alive just by counterattacking. It's hardly like a heavyweight game, it's more like an NBA team playing an NCAA team.

In the second half, the two brothers and Billups actually sat on the sidelines, and the old Dunleavy was very faceless, and after leading by 25 points at halftime, he directly announced that the game had entered garbage time, and we won't play with you.

The Thunder players are young and vigorous, and they are so despised that they suddenly turn their negative feelings into motivation, hoping to break out in the small universe to fight back.

It's a pity that in the face of absolute strength, the Thunder's small universe exploded a hundred times in vain, and the Clippers bench lineup still did not fall behind in the face of the Thunder's main force, and the two teams have been tugging in the second half. As a result, the tug-of-war ended in the final quarter, and the difference was still 20 points. Many Clippers fans feel that the game is not interesting without the presence of animal brothers, and many fans left early, and those who don't know think that the Clippers were abused.

At 102:85, the Thunder struggled to chase the deficit to 17 points and couldn't go any further, and the Clippers easily won the first game, with both brothers and Billups both playing only 20 minutes.

Ji Guoqiu had 10 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks, Ji Guoqiu had 12 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block, Billups had 5 points and 4 assists, and Crawford had 25 points.

Durant had 20 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, Artest had 16 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, and Westbrook had 10 points and 3 assists.

In the face of the young Thunder, the defending champion Clippers relied on a strong defense and gave the opponent a dismount in the first quarter, and finally won the opponent with a score of 102-85. The twin brothers, who played at home, only played half the game, and their individual numbers were ordinary. Durant scored 20 points on 6-of-22 shooting, Ji Guoyi and Durant, the two young scoring champions, did not compete head-to-head, the former only shot 7 times, but hit 4 times, and the shooting percentage was far better than Durant.
