The first round of the West was more intense than expected, because the teams in the West were very strong.

The Mavericks vs. the Trail Blazers have a lot to watch, and the Trail Blazers also won a game against the Mavericks in the regular season, Lillard and McCollum played well, and this round of the series is also time to test the two players.

In fact, most of them are aware of such a trend, and the last few years have been the era of point guards.

With the development of NBA rules and tactics, point guards who are good at shooting three-pointers and breakthroughs are becoming more and more popular, and in recent years, a number of point guards including Qin Yang, Curry, James Harden, Westbrook, Derrick Rose, Kelly Irving, etc. have played more and more well.

They were followed by Lillard, Kemba Walker and others.

There is a lot of talent on the point guard.

But in fact, the development of the point guard has also led to the development of the forward player.

Today's strikers are very simple, they can defend, they are good at receiving the ball, it doesn't matter if they are not good at holding the ball and playing alone, you don't need to do it at all.

For example, McCollum, Klay Thompson, Bradley, etc., all play very well next to the point guard, which is also a change in tactics.

The backcourt combination of Lillard and McCollum played very well and received a lot of attention.

When discussing the two teams, TNT News made a prediction: "In this series, there is not much suspense, the only suspense is how Lillard and McCollum will play and whether they can get a home victory." Otherwise, it's too sad for the Trailblazers. ”

The Warriors vs. the Grizzlies are also very interesting.

Fox News makes a news review:

"This is the most direct collision between the tactics of classical NBA players and modern NBA teams, and this series may determine the future tactical development of the NBA."

Of course, this is purely for the sake of attracting fans to watch.

A series, how can it be so important.

However, the tactics of the two teams are really very different.

The Grizzlies play a decent interior line, and Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol are both players in this category, and the outside point guards don't shoot much and play at a slow pace.

The Warriors are the opposite, the Death Five lineup resounded through the league, playing a terrifying score, so that the lineup is mostly three-division and pass-and-cut coordination, and the interior is ...... It's all gone.

This kind of tactical matchup is actually very attractive.

The Rockets vs. the Thunder are also very interesting.

The Thunder three young men fought side by side a few years ago, and the draft vision of the Thunder uniforms once made people wonder if they had crossed back.

Rookies for five or six years in a row have almost always chosen one of the best players in the year's pick.

Later, I found out that they just had a good vision, and in terms of team building, they obviously did a very poor job.

The Thunder Three Lesser of the Megatron Alliance fell apart in the blink of an eye. This time, the two teams faced each other, more like former brothers turned enemies, and they competed on the field.

But this statement by the media is complete nonsense.

Westbrook's relationship with the other two is obviously not so good, Wei Shao is very good, has an excellent character, plays very hard, but lacks a root in his brain, and Harden is a nightclub maniac, and the two do not have too deep friendship except for on the court.

The Spurs vs. the Clippers are not small.

The Clippers faced a crisis this season, Paul was injured, and in the face of an unfavorable situation, the new owner trusted the team's coach Doc Rivers.

Qin Yang didn't know why?

Rivers is clearly not a good coach and is good for nothing other than a championship with the Celtics.

Tactical coordination, defense and offense are average.

Such a coach caused dissatisfaction with the Clippers.

On the eve of the All-Star break, a person familiar with the matter even revealed that Paul had the idea of wanting to trade himself, but was finally persuaded by the team.

But if there is no breakthrough in this year's playoffs, next year will be the year of Paul's departure.

The news spread to the League, and Paul was once besieged by the media, but he did not deny it.

In the first round of the playoffs, the Clippers played against the Spurs, which is not easy to say. Although the Spurs have weakened, the combination of Leonard and LaMarcus Aldridge is strong, and with Rudy Gay, the Clippers are likely to lose.

In this case, in the first round of the playoffs, the West will have a lot to watch.

On April 16, the first round of the playoffs began.

The Mavericks host the Trail Blazers.

It's an unusually suspenseless battle.

Durant was very active in the regular season, and in the playoffs, Durant was very excited, and he broke out directly, playing 32 minutes in the first game, with 31 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, leading the team to victory, Qin Yang got 22 points, 16 assists, 3 rebounds and 2 steals in a decent manner, leading the team to victory.

Qin Yang didn't do anything else, suppressing Lillard all over the court.

Lillard ...... Honestly, no.

Although the shooting is excellent, it is not particularly good, and the shooting percentage drops significantly when encountering strong defense. Not only that, but Lillard's mentality is also problematic, and his performance in the playoffs is not stable enough, often missing three or four shots in a row, which hurts his teammates.

Qin Yang didn't have a chance to perform, and the Mavericks won.

In this game, Lillard was 5 of 17, got 12 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, and his performance was miserable.

The Mavericks led by 22 points at halftime and almost went into garbage time.

There is no suspense in such a game.

On April 18th, the second game began, still at the home of the Mavericks, and the Trail Blazers really fought this game. Both Lillard and McCollum went crazy.

McCollum, in particular, took the ball after the pick-and-roll, and hit the Mavericks called a timeout.

At half-time, the difference between the two teams did not widen.

But...... No eggs.

In the third quarter, Qin Yang broke out in the first quarter, scoring 19 points and 6 assists in a single quarter, leading the team directly into garbage time, and the Trail Blazers wanted to reverse in the fourth quarter, and were directly pressed to the ground by Durant and rubbed and rubbed.

After this game, the Trail Blazers' morale was gone.

Lillard was in great shape, with 34 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists on 12-of-26 shooting, while McCollum was in supernatural form, with 41 points, 8 rebounds and 1 assist on 16-of-26 shooting.

With this data, the two are not confident that they will be able to play again.

But the three quarters still go into garbage time.

That's how strong the Mavericks are.

At the post-game press conference, Qin Yang praised Lillard and McCollum: "Some people say that they are a weakened version of the Splash Brothers, but I don't think so, in fact, I think they are as good as Curry and Klay Thompson, and in this game, their performance shocked me." ”

The big red sedan chair was carried by everyone, but Qin Yang didn't panic.

In this game, the backcourt combination of the Trailblazers played brilliantly.
