The results of the first day of the playoffs were undoubtedly shocking, with four games, all of which were won by the lower ranked teams.
If we can''t explain it by accident, we can''t say that all of them are accidental.
The playoffs and the regular season proved to be two completely different battlefields. Teams that rank higher in the regular season simply gain home court advantage in the playoffs. It doesn''t mean anything else.
The high ranked teams who think they must be stable have paid for it.
The result of grizzly''s first day was even more unexpected.
Are they going to be able to go on killing all sides in the playoffs? It will still be the same as the four teams yesterday. No matter which result, it will attract countless fans to watch!
The Grizzlies are now as attractive as Mayweather, the champion of the game, and his every game is in the spotlight. But that doesn''t mean that everyone who watches his game wants him to win.
Watching the Grizzlies lose is also a lot of people''s fun.
Bill Simmons stressed the strength of the Mavericks before the start of the game. "They are definitely not easy to get into. The competition in the west this year is very fierce. Therefore, although the Mavericks rose to eighth place in the Western Conference until the last day of the regular season, they are not the traditional weak team in the playoffs
"The Mavericks have won 50 games this season, which is the fifth and sixth place in the Western Conference. Although Nowitzki and others are old, they still show a good state. What''s more, many people may forget that the Mavericks are the only team to beat the Grizzlies twice this season except thunder! In addition to the last field of the regular season, the Mavericks won the Grizzlies once in early February
Simmons once again played against the Grizzlies before the game, but this time, he obviously learned a lot.
He only stated the facts, not too much embellishment, not too much hellink. It seems that after repeated failures this season, Simmons also knows the end of the fight against link.
He doesn''t want to be beaten by link over and over again, unless he waits for a turnaround!
The Mavericks have never been so high-profile since they won the championship in 2011. Just because they became the Grizzlies'' rivals, they immediately gained unprecedented attention.
Mavericks owner Mark Kuban naturally won''t let go of this eye-catching opportunity. Before the game started, Cuban showed great confidence when interviewed by reporters.
"I know the Grizzlies have won an incredible 74 wins this season. They''ve been doing great all year and doing it perfectly. The only mistake they made was to get the Dallas Mavericks into the playoffs. Soon, they will find out how wrong they are. "
Kuban has always been a big mouth, often spray referees, that is famous. But in addition to the referee, Kuban has never been merciful to his opponents.
In an interview last month, he also publicly said, "I hope the Lakers will continue to suck like this."
Kuban is good to his players and staff, but he is not so kind to his opponents.
At seven o''clock on the 20th, an hour before the game. Both players showed up at the FedEx stadium to warm up for the first step of their playoff journey.
People thought the Grizzlies would be very relaxed today, but during the warm-up, the Grizzlies were meticulous. The warm-up was quite systematic and serious.
Fans are a little surprised, grizzlies but won 74 teams, they are the NBA history of the best regular season team, not one of them!
But their attitude is as if Grizzlies are the eighth in the West.
"It seems that mark Kuban is right. The Grizzlies are really nervous. Yesterday, four higher ranked teams were defeated in the game. Today, Grizzlies are obviously on the alert. "
On the stage, t.n.t''s three living treasures are ready. Grizzlies as the most popular team, t.n.t naturally sent their most popular interpretation team to explain the grizzly game.
On the court, there are also reporters to find link, ask link and Kuban related questions.
However, link, who has always been coquettish, refused the interview this time. He shook his head at the reporter and immediately returned to the warm-up.
People expected link and Kuban to have a beautiful war of words, but this expectation has been completely defeated.
The whole grizzly bear is very tight.
It''s like it''s back in 2011, back to the Western Conference finals. Grizzlies, as challengers, are carefully preparing for the war.
But this is the first round of the playoffs, not the Western Conference finals.
Even Kuban was surprised. He had prepared several speeches to spray link back and forth, but he didn''t expect that Grizzlies were really cautious.
Are they really afraid?
The Grizzlies'' performance before the game makes people daydream. Every team has its nemesis. Maybe the killer of the 74 win over Grizzlies is the Dallas Mavericks?Finally, at 8 p.m., the referee ended the fans'' painful waiting.
He tossed the basketball high, intertwined the arms of veteran Haitian center Dale Porter and Gasol.
Mavericks, starting is really old. Starting center Dalembert will turn 33 in half a month, and starting power forward Nowitzki is 36. Small forward "hacker" Marion, 36, and point guard Jose Calderon, 33. Monta Ellis, the youngest, is also 29 years old.
In terms of the age of the starting lineup, the Mavericks are actually older than the Spurs!
It''s always the Mavericks'' disadvantage, but it''s also their advantage.
All of them, they all have rich experience of competition. Daimlport played four playoffs before this year, and Monta Ellis was even a participant in the black eight Mavericks. They did not need money to buy wealth in 2011.
When the Grizzlies fight for the right to attack, the Mavericks start to retreat very steadily. Playing the playoffs is just like eating and sleeping for those guys.
Conley held the ball after half-time, igordala came out to catch the ball and then broke through under cover.
Sure enough, Nowitzki immediately made up defense, he did not let igordala easily break through Ellis.
Ellis''s physique is certainly not able to carry igordala, so the Mavericks have already dealt with it.
Don''t forget, the Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle is also an underrated coach. His control of the game, the formulation of the game plan, is absolutely the league''s top existence. In addition to the slightly weak on-the-spot command, Carlisle has almost no shortcomings and is both offensive and defensive.
If not prepared in advance, igordala would have been overwhelmed by such a situation. After all, in the regular season, igordala is definitely not going to get the package.
A player who has never been entrapped suddenly faces a tough package, which is bound to be a bit of a daze.
But igordala didn''t, and he calmly put the basketball through the crack and gave it to Randolph the moment he came up with the bag!
The Grizzlies have practiced countless times in the past two days for this kind of possible situation! Iguodala doesn''t have to think too much about what to do next.
After Randolph got the basketball, daimlport rushed to it. That''s a fat man who can knock down 19 points in a single section on the head of the heat. If you let him go, you will pay a heavy price.
Randolph is not in a hurry to shoot or handle the ball. But like an old man who goes to the stadium to exercise, he passes the ball to the back at will.
Two steps to get rid of the basket after Lyon cut the basket like Marlin!
Marion just and link in the outside line entangled for a long time, have to admit, Marion''s defensive skills are very excellent. In the intensity of the playoffs, even if link wants to get rid of Marion''s entanglement is not easy.
But Marion''s ability to move has been seriously degraded, when link flashed out of space, Marion had no chance to catch up.
These two excellent passes, the Mavericks defense completely cut apart. Carlisle could not help clenching his fist. He could see that grizzly bear was prepared!
They''re not complacent about winning 74 games in the regular season. The guys know exactly what they want!
Dallas people think they''re going to face a slack, proud, leaky defending champion. But in fact, the opposite is true!
After receiving the basketball, link slammed into the air like a helicopter!
Marion, Dalembert and Nowitzki can only look up. They can''t work in the air now.
"Boom
Link''s left arm swings hard, buckles the basketball into the frame! At the beginning of the playoffs, link opened the Grizzlies with a powerful one handed chop.
"Beautiful attack, grizzlies in danger, patiently found the scoring opportunity! Indeed, four higher ranked teams were all attacked yesterday. But don''t forget, Memphis Grizzlies are the only one! They are different from all other teams. What happens to other teams may not necessarily happen to them
Hubie Brown was worried about the game when he saw link so seriously at first. But now, after the Grizzlies have played such a wonderful attack, Hubie Brown is relieved.
Grizzlies are so serious before the game, not because they are afraid of losing, but because they are afraid of winning not beautiful enough!
After the goal, link yelled into the stands, and now he just wants to destroy the Mavericks, rather than fight with Kuban.
Rubbish? There will be, but that''s after the grizzly has cleaned out the calf.
The League first, 12 games ahead of the second place, refuses to roll over!
