The first thing to start is the playoff opener of the Warriors against the Mavericks, this game everyone is very concerned, I want to know if the Warriors can maintain the dominance of the regular season in the playoffs, the Mavericks are also a very good touchstone for the playoffs, although the Mavericks are basically not possible to black eight, but they are not bad, you can test the gold content of the second record in the history of the Warriors this year.

To the disappointment of many and the excitement of many, the Warriors continued their invincible regular-season dominance against the Mavericks, blasting out an absolute 112-85 advantage in the first game.

"Wow, the Warriors are very powerful, we have a difficult time in the West." After watching half of the game, Liu Ren felt the strength of the Warriors compared to the regular season, and said worriedly and excitedly.

"Why can't it be the 183 masked man who enters the Western Conference Finals, I am more looking forward to playing against the Clippers, we have never played against each other in the Western Conference Finals, the Thunder is also very likely, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the School Bag Warriors also have an advantage in some aspects" Kobe Bryant disagreed.

Kobe Bryant really learned badly, as long as he mentioned things related to basketball, every sentence was stalked, but he didn't know that he had learned badly.

However, what Kobe Bryant said is not a big problem, the Clippers and Thunder also have the strength to beat the Warriors, but ...... Liu Ren feels that they are still a little worse than the Warriors, and the Warriors' mentality is better than these two teams.

The Warriors didn't surprisingly beat the Mavericks, and the rest of the focus was on the Grizzlies and Spurs, who have played each other three times in the playoffs since 2010.

The clash between these two teams is indeed an eye-catcher, and the black and white bears against the Spurs' six stars are bound to be a great matchup.

However, the boss of one team did not focus on that, but on the series of fifth and fourth in the East, which began at the same time.

James never prayed for another team that they were going to win, but he started praying today.

James is eagerly awaiting the Hawks to beat the Celtics.

In terms of rankings, the Celtics are not as good as the Hawks, but in terms of records, the Celtics are undoubtedly a big cut behind the Hawks, and the Celtics are much better than the Hawks.

The Hawks were once the most successful team to imitate the Spurs, with 60 wins last season, the best of any team that has imitated the Spurs in recent years.

But the boom and the fall are the eagles, and they suddenly climbed to the top of what they can climb now, and then suddenly return to the way they were, not even as good as the original.

The Celtics are strong, the roster is deep, the Hawks are aging, and injuries are beginning to increase, although they have added Bazemore, a talented young swingman, but they can't stop the degradation of their outside core Teague and the aging of shooting guard Sefrossa.

James expects the Hawks to beat the Celtics is really too difficult, maybe the Hawks can beat the Celtics once or twice in a series, but the Hawks are really not the opponent of the Celtics, not to mention that although the Hawks are fourth in the East, they don't even have home-court advantage against the Celtics.

Although the Hawks relied on team play and the Celtics to play until the fourth quarter were still anxious for a while, the biggest shortcoming of the Hawks is that they do not have a player with a certain top technical ability, and the Celtics have, the flexible fat man Sallinger is like the Spurs' Dio in previous years, and he led the Celtics to play a wave of very alternative offense at a critical moment, defeating the Hawks in one fell swoop.

Lebon bulged his cheeks bigger than the cheeks of the Knicks, and this rhythm was going to play the Celtics in the second round.

To say that the most feared team of the Eastern Cavaliers is not the Knicks, but the Celtics!

Every time the Green Shirts see him, they see him the same as when they see the enemy who killed their father, and every time they use the strategy of injuring the enemy by 800 and injuring 1,000 themselves, and the team that can't beat him will desperately cripple him.

Why was the Cavaliers so tragic in last year's playoffs, helping the NBA set the record for the highest revenue for a single team in the playoffs? Isn't it because the Cavaliers played the Celtics in the first round and were injured by the Celtics' self-harming style of play, and the Cavaliers have been reimbursed for several seasons.

James said it was very uncomfortable, why did this Celtic ghost go away?

……

……

The first day of the game was generally the same as expected, the Warriors beat the Mavericks, the Celtics went down to the Hawks without pressure, the Knicks and the Hornets defeated the Hornets by superstar advantage after a bloody battle, and the Spurs beat the Grizzlies at home, and the two teams played the lowest point difference in the first round, beating the Grizzlies 88-82 to win the first playoff game.

Everything was expected, which couldn't help but feel a little boring, not a surprise at all.

But surprises, when you expect them to happen, are actually not surprises.

The real surprise is the kind of thing that suddenly erupts when you've completely let go of your expectations and are ready to accept something that is going on as normal as it ends.

On April 19, the second game day of the playoffs, the Lakers hosted the Trail Blazers first.

is still as plain as water, Liu Ren took the lead in standing up and taking the ball, not at all like the regular season, the first game broke out fiercely, and it was a first quarter of 11 in 8, and 22 points in a single quarter, so that the Trailblazers were stunned, this is not according to the routine! The difference between the style of play in this playoffs and the regular season is simply too great!

In fact, this is also the first time that the Trail Blazers have met the Lakers in the playoffs in recent years, if it is the Spurs or the Clippers, the Warriors, these teams that have played directly with the Lakers in the past two years, you will know that this is the real way of playing for the Lakers, and all other players are foils, that is, Liu Ren takes the ball to attack, and others run to grab rebounds.

This style of play is purely based on the individual ability of the players, and if it were not for the team that Liu Ren has an absolute opposition advantage, D'Antoni would not play like this.

Of course, if Liu Ren has an absolute opposition advantage, then the game will be easy, and the physical strength of others can also be saved in the match against the strong opponents in the next two rounds.

The Lakers easily defeated the Trail Blazers without much effort, Lillard scored 36 points, but 30 shots, Liu Ren was miserably defended, and without Aldridge's help, he had no room to resist when he met Liu Ren.

106-90, Liu Ren scored 44 points in the whole game, leading the Lakers to defeat the Trail Blazers without suspense.

When fans saw this, they didn't have much hope for the first round of this year, which can be described as uninteresting, and the exciting series that they were looking forward to were the Clippers vs. Thunder, the Spurs vs. the Grizzlies, and now it seems that it will be very tense and intense, and the other games are as predicted before the game...... Bored......

But......

Surprises often come so suddenly, after seeing the Lakers' perfect dominance in the playoffs last season, people have just lost the desire to watch most of the series in the first round, and the Cavaliers and Raptors are sure to beat the Pacers and Hornets, after all, both teams were swept by each other in the regular season this year.

However, what will happen in this world, the earth is round, and the moment something happens, we can determine what the outcome of the matter will be.

Just when people didn't expect the game before the Cavaliers met the Celtics, the Pacers won the first playoff game in the first round of the playoffs and won the first playoff game in Cleveland!

Immediately after, the Hornets beat the Raptors in Toronto in Game 1 of the first round!

After two consecutive grams, no one paid attention to the battle between the Clippers and the Thunder, which should have been the focus of attention......
