When the first round of the playoffs showdowns was announced, fans around the world were buzzing around.
In the first round of the playoffs in ’96, the system before the reform was reformed, and the two teams would play each other, and the first three wins to advance!
And in these 8 groups of games, the most anticipated by the players is the Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Clippers!!
Because this set of duels is too much, too big!!
Jiang Han and Kobe Bryant met in the playoffs again!!
No one would have thought that two young people who came out of the NSAA league would actually compete all the way to the playoffs!
The arrangement of fate turned out to be so interesting…
However, there is another reason why fans are so concerned about this set of matchups.
The reason is very simple.
The Los Angeles Lakers are definitely the biggest dark horses in the playoffs this season!
Their strength can be ranked between 3~6 in the west.
The reason why he was able to slide to eighth in the West was entirely due to Shaquille O’Neal’s injury hazards this season, missing a lot of games in the middle of the season, and O’Neal has only played 51 games this season.
And now, the Shark O’Neal has returned full of blood, and in the 20 games leading up to the playoffs, he played at the level of the league’s No. 1 center!
Averaged 26.2 points, 12. Rebounds, 3.4 assists, 2.9 blocks per game, except for a free throw shooting rate of less than 50% and a slight crotch, the true shooting rate exceeded 60%!
So, no one would define this set of showdowns as idealized West First VS West Eighth!
This should happen in the Western Conference semifinals, or even a set showdown in the Western Conference Finals!
Not long after the news was delivered, ESPN’s expert team also began to open their mouths and make big score predictions for each group of matchups.
And they also put the final finale topic on the game between the squad and the Lakers.
ESPN’s big score prediction was 3:2, and the Mavericks advanced!
ESPN’s team of experts believe the Lakers can cause some trouble for the young Mavericks in the playoffs.
But in the end, it was the Dallas people who advanced with their strength!
“It’s been seven years since the Dallas Mavericks last made the Western Conference playoffs!”
“In the 1989~1990 season, the Mavericks entered the playoffs in the 6th place in the West, and so far, it has been a 7-year itch!”
“The 7 itch has arrived, how far can the Dallas Mavericks go in the playoffs today, I think it will be the Finals?!”
The ESPN expert group has already released a voice, and naturally the old opponents T, NT are indispensable.
However, unlike ESPN, T, NT mainly focuses on the players!
“The itch of 7, how far the Russ Mavericks can go in the playoffs depends entirely on Jiang Han’s performance in the playoffs!”
The signature Jiang Chui commentators Kevin Harlan instantly went up when he mentioned Jiang Han.
“If I give Jiang Han a score for his performance in the regular season this season, I would like to give a full score!!”
“Jiang Han’s stats in 82 regular season games this season are: 48.8 points, 5 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.8 steals and 1 block.”
“With three shooting percentages of 56.2%, 52.3% and 93.2% respectively, he has crossed 10 clubs and opened up 200 club big!”
“He led the team to a 73-win record, I can’t think of a more dominant player!!”
“But I think this is not all of Jiang Han’s energy, and Jiang Han in the playoffs will be even crazier!!”
