The regular season came to an end, followed by a play-off, so today is a favorite face-slapping fortune teller.
Watching the game is also a picture of a pleasure, really exciting, but also have to hit the face to tell fortunes.
Not much nonsense, let's just do the math.
First, the Nets play the Cavaliers at home
Season record, the Nets 3 wins and 1 loss, the only loss is because Durant is injured, and the Cavaliers side of the lineup is basically complete, the three high system is still there.
The most significant game is the game that the two sides just played on the 9th, the Cavaliers changed various defensive methods to deal with Durant, because Irving was very crotch-pulling, Durant was hit in the second half as soon as he took the ball, and saw that Durant was overdrawn at the end of the third quarter.
But in the fourth quarter Brown, Curry Jr., Mills and Chuang Shen all stepped forward, giving Durant a chance to play without the ball and breathe.
It is foreseeable that in the playoffs, the Cavaliers will still hoard heavy troops to defend Durant, at this time it depends on how much help their teammates can give Durant. Nash must use the god of Chuang, when Allen is not there, the Cavaliers' three-high defensive system is missing a corner, if Mobley goes out to pinch Durant, Chuang Shen has no one to stop under the basket.
Moreover, the size of the Zhuang Shen itself has an advantage over Mobley, and in the last game, there was also a situation where the Zhuang Shen ate Mobley alone. When Durant is in trouble, Nash should not just be superstitious about Owen.
As long as teammates loosen Durant slightly, it won't be difficult for the Nets to think about the Cavaliers. So does the Knight have a chance?
Yes, a game is decided and won, and there is never a game that must be won. The Chance for the Cavaliers is that if Nash uses a small lineup, the Cavaliers must work hard to impact durant, and if Nash uses a large lineup, Garland will use more blocks to attack Zhuang Shen.
Second, the Nets should use Brown to defend Garland and Durant to defend Markkanen, and at this time, Le Vere should have an advantage against Irving or Curry on the front line, and he has to play a role.
Third, the Nets and Cavaliers started on the 13th, with a day off in between, and Owen was in ramadan, and his state was unpredictable. Irving is not in good shape, and it may not be a positive effect on the Nets.
Conclusion: The Nets Cavaliers are eight or two.
Second, the Eagles play the Hornets at home
The season record, the Hawks 2 win 2, 2 losses, the After-Star game against the Hornets won 116-106. Why just talk about this game after the All-Star?
Because the game is close, and both teams are in good shape after the All-Star. The Hawks went 15-9 after the All-Stars, and the Hornets lost 14-8, which is why the two teams have been able to bite the Nets.
This set of matches is probably the most difficult group to guess in the 4 groups of matches, because neither team defends, and the characteristic of the offensive team is that anyone can win when they are crazy, and no one can win if they are crazy.
So that day may be compared to who shot accurately, the Eagles side is the home after all, and the Eagles have played the East Finals and felt that pressure. Really better than the star level, Blow Yang is still stronger than the three-ball one-on-one problem solving ability.
Whether Hayward can come back is still very important to the Hornets, and he has such a transit station on the front line, and both offensive and defensive ends can make the team more comfortable.
Conclusion: Eagle Wasp 5.5:4.5!
Third, the Timberwolves play the Clippers at home
Season record, the Clippers 3 wins and 1 loss. But like Director Lou said, the Timberwolves didn't have Russell in three of those games.
Lu's guidance is more like a psychological hint to the Clippers players, so that the players should not take it lightly. Lue's coaching finale against the Thunder also said something else in an interview: "We have more playoff experience than the Timberwolves and it won't make any difference. ”
These two words are the same purpose, competitive sports are most afraid of nature, when the Clippers hold their own mentality that they should be seventh in the West, it is particularly prone to problems.
But the Clippers do have an advantage, and the Clippers' advantage lies in their defense: The Clippers can put up a set of George + Covington + Batum + Morris Jr. + Hatten's infinite change of defense lineup with centers, and the Timberwolves' lineup does not punish the outside line with particularly strong misalignment ability.
If hatten is too slow or drags space, mann can be replaced by Hatten to play five small, and this lineup has both the ball point, space, single-handed ability and ability to change defense.
If the Timberwolves want to use Towns to punish misalignment, then the Clippers can see who is on the Timberwolves' fourth position, and if it is Van Debiao, then Batum can come over and pinch, Van Debiao has a 14% three-point shooting rate this season, and Beverley can be used as another point to be let go.
If the Timberwolves are not on the fourth position of Van Debiao, it means that the Timberwolves have completely abandoned defense. At this time, the Timberwolves have no defense, the Clippers have attacks and defenses, who do you say has the best chances?
So where are the Timberwolves' chances?
Judging from the 0-2 deficit in the playoffs last season and the classic reversals of the Clippers this season, Coach Lu is a coach who likes to play from behind. He likes to see everything clearly and find the other person's weakness and strike a fatal blow.
But it is easy to lose the lead in doing so, and the Timberwolves, a youth storm-type team, is a bit like the Thunder Three Less of that year. Once you let him rise, the sky is their limit, not necessarily so easy to turn over.
Conclusion: Clipper Timberwolves seven three-three.
Fourth, the Pelicans play the Spurs at home
The season record, the Spurs 3 wins and 1 loss, the only loss was the Home Defeat to the Pelicans on March 19 by 33 points, it is worth mentioning that in this Ingram did not play.
The good news for the Spurs is that Ingram's hamstring injury has not been good, but Coach Willie Green said Ingram's recent truce was in preparation for the playoffs.
With the Spurs' current roster — Murray's upper respiratory infection just returned, the finale playing the Lone Ranger is very average, McDermott can't play, there are fewer important pitchers on the periphery, Walker's back injury is not good — the fighting offensive talent is definitely not enough to fight the Pelicans, so they can only rely on defense.
The Pelicans' iron triangle is CJ, Ingram and Varan, assuming the Spurs can lock them up with Murray, KJ and Boertel, but in the final stages, the Spurs' lack of talent will still be exposed.
In fact, the Spurs did not think about entering the playoffs this year, but it was because the Lakers were too bad, causing the Spurs to see the opportunity to be lifted up, so the current lineup is not prepared for playoffs and playoffs.
When the Spurs can stand on the play-off stage, they have already succeeded.
Conclusion: Pelican Spurs seven three open.
