On May 5, Beijing time, the second round of the NBA playoffs continued, with two games throughout the day, which were the top of the East and West and the fourth place against the regular season. The second team in the east and west returned collectively, the old three overturned the car, failed to win consecutively, the big score became 1-1, the second game at the top of the list, to pay enough attention to it, with a 2-0 advantage to go to the away game, the feeling is not the same. Whether it is the Heat or the Suns, their current strength is stronger than their opponents, and the first game can see the trend of the series.
At 7:30 a.m., the Heat played against the 76ers
Embiid was absent, Philadelphia was indeed defeated, the whole game was suppressed by the Heat, Harden could not lead more players to score, he had no say in this new team, unlike the Rockets, he was an absolute team leader. The Heat are getting better and better, even if Butler doesn't play much, other players are playing well, and the First place in the East is so unpretentious, but the strength is not bad.
Philadelphia wants to break the game, must be inseparable from Harden, although his overall strength is not as good as before, win or less he can not. Harden needs to add more breakthroughs to tear apart the Heat's defense and create opportunities for other teammates, and Philadelphia will have a chance as long as more players are driven to score. Once stuck in Harden's singles mode, the Heat's defense will be very targeted and will be very effective in limiting Philadelphia's offense.
Overall, the Heat will most likely win a second home game and head to Philadelphia with a 2-0 lead. Adebayor can still score on the inside and take beautiful stats before Embiid's comeback.
At 10 a.m., the Suns played against the Lone Rangers
Doncic played epic data, it is still difficult to hide the defeat of the Lone Ranger, facing the Suns team, the first team in the league with regular season records, the other players of the Lone Ranger are dumbfounded, the tactics are very simple, that is, Doncic singles, throwing the pot, such a lone ranger do not say play the Suns, even if you play Jazz again, maybe you will not be promoted.
If the Lone Ranger wants to win, he needs to be like the Grizzlies, not only to have a super scoring point, but other players also have to stand up, and the biggest difference between Doncic and Morant is that he shoots too many three-point shots to create opportunities for other players by impacting the inside line like Morant. The technical characteristics also determine the difference in team tactics, facing the Suns team that integrates attack and defense, the Lone Ranger needs to enrich his scoring methods.
Of course, the Suns will not let the Lone Ranger score so easily, the first game, Paul basically did not have the power, the Suns is a big win. The Lone Ranger wants to control the game, and asks Paul if he agrees, this rhythm master who can control the game, not only can lead his teammates, but also attack the stronghold himself. The Suns are currently the team with the highest probability of winning the championship, and the strength is here, even if it can't sweep the Lone Ranger, it is 4-1 easy to qualify.
