May 4, 2008, Detroit, Auburn Hills Palace Stadium.

Before the start of the series, no one expected that this round of the series would actually reach the point of tie-breaking.

And this tie-break, it's not that the two teams are chasing me and quickly biting one person to fight to the current situation, but the 76ers broke out strongly, and it looks like QWER is going to take away a wave, but the opponent didn't lie down after the combo, and in turn a set of combos waited, bringing the game back to the average again.

Today, both sides are bloodless, one-on-one heads-up without reinforcements, no luck, no luck to rely on.

The only one who can rely on is yourself.

"The 2008 playoffs were an eye-opener!"

Today, with the exception of the Philadelphia and Detroit games, there are no other games being played at the same time. The first round of the playoffs is drawing to a close, and most of the matchups have come to an end. The series is still ongoing, and only the two sets of matchups in the East should have been the most distinct strength and weakness.

The second Pistons in the East vs. the seventh-seventh 76ers in the East, and the No. 1 Celtics in the East vs. the eighth-largest Hawks in the East.

The battle between the two groups, which was considered by critics before the game to be over in six games, was actually dragged to the seventh game.

"For two days in a row, TN will bring you exciting races! Two groups of seven battles, Mars collides with the earth, absolutely not to be missed! ”

Kenny Smith sat on the edge of the court at Auburn Hills Palace, previewing the live broadcast of the next two days, feeling the terrifying sound that could kill people in the stadium, and the expression on his face actually became a little nervous.

"It's terrible, how long has it been since there has been such a terrifying noise in the Palace of Auburn Hills?" Smith recalled: "The last time I felt the boundless anger of the Motor City fans was when the Pistons played the Cavaliers in the playoffs last season, right? ”

"More than that!" Barkley shook his head and said: "LeBron did play a classic series with the Pistons, but the two teams didn't have too many grievances before. If you want to hate it, both Detroit and Cleveland should hate that stinking and shameless bald head. The enemy of the enemy is the friend, and if I want to see it, Detroit and Cleveland should simply ally become friendly and mutual aid cities. Ha ha! ”

The "stinking and shameless bald head" that Barkley referred to was certainly not himself, but the old rascal who couldn't put a ring on a single hand.

THE FEUD BETWEEN THE PISTONS AND JORDAN IS WELL KNOWN, AND THE MOST REMEMBERED MOMENT OF THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS BEFORE THEY WELCOMED LEBRON WAS THE SHOT, BUT THEY WERE THE BACKGROUND. Behind the classic picture of Jordan jumping up and raising his arms and shouting is the sad figure of the Cavaliers players hiding their faces and falling to their knees.

"So, now Detroit's malice towards the Chinese kid has surpassed LeBron's?" Smith asked.

"Absolutely, MYBOY is mad at the Pistons at every turn, and if I were a Pistons player, I would hate him." Barkley said with a fat head: "We met in the playoffs for two consecutive years, and I was just taken away by a big word from a Chinese kid last year." This year, it's back in this set. And it's a series bet! It's so enjoyable, hahahaha! ”

Chen Mu's style is deeply loved by Barkley, whether it is from the perspective of being a fellow Philadelphia player, or the identity of the position of a power forward, as well as the arrogant attitude of "Lao Tzu is a person who has the ability to beat me", all of which make Barkley love Chen Mu to the bone marrow.

It's just that Barkley is more direct, and Chen Mu is relatively tactful. But at most, this is just a slight difference between Eastern and Western cultures, and in essence, these two guys are really very similar.

Barkley likes to talk about it, and that's something everyone knows. And Barkley's mouth cannon is different. It's not just a matter of saying things like "Lao Tzu is going to be like that".

Barkley's mouth cannon, that is a combination of mouth cannon, arrogance, provocation, ridicule, and brainlessness, and does not talk about routines at all.

Chen Mu's provocation was added to Barkley's foundation. It belongs to the unique forbearance of Orientals.

There was a lot to watch in the first round of the playoffs this season, but most of the games set the tone within four games, and the final result went that way.

Like the Lakers and Nuggets. It seems to be a strong dialogue between the offensive teams, but the defensive gap between the two teams is very large, and the inside attack power is not the same. And. Kobe Bryant is still the unsolvable scoring machine.

In the end, the Lakers swept 4-0 to advance, which was more domineering than everyone predicted. Iverson's loneliness, the look in his big eyes after the series, is even more unbearable to watch.

With the strong promotion of the Suns, the form of the West has been basically clear, and the Lakers and the Suns, two super teams, dominate the West and compete for the qualification to enter the Finals, which seems to be a sure thing.

In the east, however, the situation has become a little more delicate.

LeBron and his Cavaliers are making the playoffs, and as a superstar worthy of being called a playoff player, LeBron's regular season statistics this season are appalling, but the team's record is average, and even regressed from previous years. However, in the playoffs, it still showed the dominance of the new era, and LeBron led the team to advance, waiting for the winner of the Pistons and 76ers.

In the other set of matchups, the Heat's O'Neal and Wade combination is still strong. Although O'Neal is no longer as brave as he used to be, Wade's progress is obvious to all, and it will not be difficult to enter the second round.

The results of these two groups in the middle of the east came early, but it was the two groups that were considered to be the least suspenseful before the game, but they hit the tie-break moment.

"Boston was actually dragged to the seventh game by Atlanta, it's not disrespectful to Atlanta, it's just that this result, I guess most people didn't expect it, right?"

Barkley has a deep affection for the East, and analyzed it with emotion: "Before the game, we felt that the Big Three would have a good advantage against either of the Hawks. However, the Hawks have created a lot of trouble for Boston with their tactical diversity and infinite defensive switching strategy on the front line. This group of duels came to the seventh game, which seems to be a bit of an incredible situation, but if you think about it carefully, the strength and integrity of the Eagles have indeed reached a considerable height, and it is not an accident that they can fight to this time. ”

"So you think the eagles have a show?" Smith knew Barkley's hatred for the Celtics and asked teasingly.

"It's no play, the Celtics will pass tomorrow, the Eagles can't beat them." Barkley shook his head, and said it categorically.

"And what about your 76ers?" Smith smiled, Barkley looked silly, but his brain was actually very flexible, and it was indeed not so easy to fall into the pit he had dug out.

"76 ......"

When asked about one of his parent teams, Barkley really showed a hesitant look on his face, and said in a deep voice: "I guess I will lose." ”

Estimated will lose.

Barkley's words are also the common sentiment in the hearts of most fans who are following this battle of focus.

The Philadelphia 76ers have indeed done beyond imagination, and it can be said that since getting Chen Mu, Philadelphia has been firmly moving forward step by step, and can surprise people every season.

But this time, it's almost the end.

"To put it simply, the reason why Philadelphia will lose is simple, the Pistons have a good momentum."

Barkley's concluding remarks, needless to say, everyone already knew the meaning of his words.

When the series came to Game 5, the 76ers, who led 3-1, had a great chance to finish the Black Seven. But they didn't manage to take it, both away and at home, and they lost.

Looking back at the situation, the 76ers were ahead by a large score, and one more win could advance, just completed two consecutive wins, one of which was a rare slaughter in the history of the playoffs, and the momentum was fierce, and it was not difficult to win.

But if you don't grasp it, you don't grasp it, the 76ers paid the price for their youth, and they lost two games in a row in a state where all the players fluctuated and their skills and tactics were thoroughly eaten by the opponent, and the momentum was suddenly robbed by the Pistons.

Now, Game 7 of the playoffs, a battle of life and death, losing two games in a row, low morale, and an away disadvantage......

Everything seems to be moving in a direction that is not good for the 76ers.

"In terms of playoff experience, the Pistons also have a lot of advantages." Smith added.

"Grab seven, you know an egg." Barkley shook his head disdainfully: "The tie-break is completely different from the ordinary playoffs, and you soft eggs who stop eating as soon as you encounter a tie-break won't understand." ”

“……”

Smith was speechless, and in the playoffs, Smith, known as the Jet, had a number of classic performances. But all of his career tie-breaks, all of which were tied together, couldn't compare to the thrill of Avery Kiss of Death.

That's the bad thing about teammates who are too good at forking.

And what about Barkley? In 1993, when he was in the Suns, he once scored 44 points and 24 rebounds in the seven-tie-break against the supersonics, and was called the best seven-man performance in history by many people.

Of course, this is because Jordan has less than seven dozen.

In terms of individual performance and understanding of the tie-break, Barkley sprayed Smith, that was no problem at all.

"The Pistons are not only experienced in the playoffs, but they have experienced this kind of thing like a seven-tiebreaker, and several of them have experienced it. And what about Philadelphia? Not to mention a playoff rookie like Lowry, Iguodala, who has the most experience in the starters, has never experienced a tie-break. This will be the winner of the game. ”

Barkley said with rare seriousness: "Chen is a playoff player, at least in the rebounding category, but is he a steal-breaker?" The pressure of the whole world, or less, the pressure of the whole of Philadelphia is pressing on his shoulders at the moment, can he still be hard? ”

"We'll see the answer in a moment."

Grab seven, life and death battle.

Chen Mu came to a crossroads, and in front of him was the first battle in his life, winning or losing, in the next two hours, there will be a difference.

Auburn Hills Palace shook the sky, Philadelphia 76ers, entered. (To be continued.) )
