Chapter 661: The calf is very old
On the first day of the 2013-2014 playoffs, four teams from each side of the East and West faced off, and it was not easy for the remaining two teams to win, except for the Clippers and the Heat.
After the Grizzlies were Black Eight Spurs that year, it seemed that the team was very interested in playing this "black" role, and after the Black Eight that year, it seems that they are planning to play Black Seven this year!
That's right, it's Black Seven, in this first game, with the offensive firepower of the Thunder, they only scored 88 points in the whole game! Not even 90 points!
Of course, the Grizzlies themselves are not high, that is, 89, but winning one point is enough to win.
In this game, Tony Allen successfully suppressed Durant's firepower, Durant lost his defense and was very uncomfortable throughout the game, and Durant, who is known for his offense, did not score more than 20 points in the whole game, which is indeed a great achievement!
0:1, the Thunder are now behind the Grizzlies, and looking at this posture, the Grizzlies don't mind winning another game in Oklahoma!
The Grizzlies want Black Seven, and the beast battle over there is also on the following grams, the Hawks were defeated by the Bulls, even if the Bulls don't have an inside line Optimus Prime Noah, but as long as Rose is still there, the Bulls are still a first-class team, and this win against the Hawks is by relying on Rose's last-minute layup by three people! Then Korver's final three-pointer was missed, and the Hawks lost the game.
It's not to be expected, but for the fans, this year's playoffs are really exciting, and it's been a long time since I've understood it that way.
And the next day, the remaining 4 games are also quite interesting.
The Western Rockets beat the Warriors, and in the future, these two opponents will be enemies, and now they don't know who can win in the early matchup.
The Spurs beat the Mavericks, needless to say, the Texas Civil War, and the league's arrangement is very interesting, the Texas top three actually played on the same day.
The Eastern Pacers play the Wizards, and the rising star matchup between George and Wall is also very exciting.
Knicks vs. Nets, this is a civil war in New York State, small melons against the Nets "Five Tigers", a contest between two local tyrant owners.
The excitement of this day's game will definitely not be lost to the first day.
San Antonio, AT& amp; At the entrance of the T arena, a luxurious-looking extended bus slowly stopped.
It is not difficult to see from the paint on the car that this is the Mavericks' special car, and this special car with this configuration is also among the best in the league.
The Dallas Mavericks are also not a bad team, although Cuban is not as good as Dolan of the Knicks and the Russian old Maozi of the Nets, but in Texas, an acre of three-point land, Cuban used to be the richest owner! Texas tyrants!
No way? The rocket's Alexander and Cuban are really incomparable, even if Yao Ming's value is ten times faster, it still can't be compared.
Spur? Come on, do you think a tractor seller can be richer than the Kuban?
But why is it said that Cuban is the first tyrant "once"? Because now the Spurs have a new owner, the strength of the new owner is unfathomable, and there is still no way to win against Cuban.
Pulling away, he put his eyes back in front of the arena, Duncan led Qin Yan and Leonard to wait at the door, and Nowitzki and the team on the Mavericks side came down, and they saw the three big men at the door of the Spurs arena.
"Tim, long time no see." Nowitzki and Duncan hug, two old friends always have a lot of emotion to say when they meet, especially two old guys who are already old, and they feel even more emotion when they meet.
"It's rare to compete with you in the first round of the playoffs." Duncan is also very emotional, this is true, because both teams are strong teams, rarely say that they meet in the first round, in terms of previous years' records, the two teams have to play each other in the playoffs at least in the second round or even the Western Conference finals.
Nowitzki smiled reluctantly, it is really a good fortune for the Mavericks to enter the playoffs this year, there is a big problem with their lineup running-in, to put it mildly, whether the Spurs who are strong and strong can win now, King Nuo Tianwang himself has no bottom in his heart.
After a simple pleasantries, the Mavericks also went to the locker room, and the three Duncans returned to the home team lounge to listen to Popovich's final arrangement.
"Today's regular starter, you have been holding back for a long time, so let's vent hard after playing today." Popovich has already explained what he should have explained, and now he just needs to confirm the starting lineup.
The Spurs said there was no problem, and Popovich experimented with a lot of combinations this season, with the regular lineup being the one they were most familiar with.
When the two teams arrived to warm up and the referee signaled for the starters, the regular lineup of the Spurs, who had not played together for a long time, finally reappeared in front of people.
Whiteside, Duncan, Leonard, Qin Yan, Parker.
This is a long time since the Spurs have taken out a complete starter, in the second half of the season, the Spurs' starters are all strange, when these five people come up together, the fans at the scene feel a little nostalgic.
The main force on the Maverick's side also came up, to be honest, Qin Yan didn't pay much attention to the Maverick, and when he saw the Maverick's lineup, he was still a little surprised.
The center is Damon Porter, and this guy is still in the NBA? There's no problem with the big forward being Nowitzki, the small forward, damn, the small forward is actually Marion!
Looking at the shooting guard again, Qin Yan almost laughed, I'll go, Monta Ellis, when did this guy run from the bucks to the Mavericks?
Qin Yan remembered that Ellis was still competing with Jennings for the boss in the Bucks last season, and because he was not convinced, he was said by Kobe to be the "future No. 1 scoring guard" and was beaten up by himself, and now they actually met again in the playoffs, which is really a bit of a narrow feeling.
Ellis also had a complicated expression when he saw Qin Yan, of course he remembered that he was beaten by Qin Yan in the game in the Bucks last year, he thought that this guy's rookie would definitely not be able to reach his peak for a long time, but he didn't expect this person to play better and better, and now he is the youngest MVP in history, and he is also the scoring champion this year.
The starting point guard of the Mavericks is also an old acquaintance of Chinese fans, "Hades" Harris, who is still the league's record of ball possession, was really fast when he was young, and once as the boss of Yi Jianlian, Harris was also concerned by Chinese fans for a period of time.
But there is a big problem with the Mavericks' lineup, that is, they are old, and their starting age is really old.
It has always been said that "Spurs are very old", but now there are actually a lot of new blood in Spurs, let's just say that the two starting lineups on the field now, Qin Yan is 21 years old on the Spurs' side, Leonard is 22 years old, and Whiteside is 24 years old, these three are all young people in their prime!
Even Parker, this guy is only 32 years old, and Duncan is older, 38 years old, the oldest of all the starters.
But because there are three young people, the average age of the Spurs' starters has been directly pulled to 27.4 years old, which is quite a young lineup!
You're looking at the Mavericks' lineup, Noh is 35 years old, Damon Porter is 33 years old, Marion is 36 years old, Harris is 31 years old, and the youngest is Ellis, who is also 28 years old!
The youngest ones are all older than the average age of the Spurs!
Is this embarrassing to say that Spurs are very old? This is obviously the fact that the calf is very old......
