Chapter 337 The second round begins

The match between the Raptors and the Pacers also entered the sixth game. This time the Pacers also defeated the Raptors 101-83 at home, also dragging the game into a tiebreaker.

The time has come to April 30. According to the league's schedule, today's tiebreaker between the Spurs and the Clippers in the Western Conference of the playoffs will also start at 6 o'clock in the evening at the AT&T Center Arena, the home of the Spurs.

The war was about to break out, and Da Zhuang, Ogmen and others also watched the game live on TV.

Da Zhuang vaguely feels that his opponent this time is likely to be the Spurs, but Augmon, Garnett and others feel that the Clippers have a greater chance, and even Vogel is optimistic about the Clippers.

They all believe that the aging Spurs, who have been dragged down by the Clippers until now, must be unable to withstand the Clippers' impact.

But the old and sophisticated Spurs still taught a good lesson to all those who were not optimistic about him. Popovich is indeed an old fox. Carlisle can be said to have lost completely in this game. Not only

We lost to our opponents in terms of score, and we also lost in terms of tactical arrangements and some on-the-spot command.

103 to 96, the Spurs won the tiebreaker.

This will also lead to a meeting with the Timberwolves in the second round of the Western Conference.

The Rockets can only sadly end this season's journey and start their own vacation.

So far, six teams have been confirmed for the eight tickets in the second round, namely the Cavaliers, Hawks, Timberwolves, Spurs, Warriors, and Thunder.

There are still two final places to decide.

The time came on May 1, and the last two tiebreakers of the first round also started at the same time.

The Raptors face the Pacers at home.

D'Antoni was also confident before the game that they were fully confident of defeating their opponents and advancing to the second round. However, during the game, the final result was not what D'Antoni said.

The Raptors defeated the Pacers 89-84.

The Raptors also won the final victory in this series.

Another tiebreaker, closely related to the Raptors, also decided the outcome.

The Heat faced the Hornets at home and defeated the Hornets with a big victory, 106 to 73. The Heat and Raptors met in the second round.

The end of the two games heralds the end of the first round of this season's playoffs, and then the list of matchups for the second round of the playoffs will be released one after another.

In the Eastern Conference, the Cleveland Cavaliers face the Atlanta Hawks, and the Toronto Raptors face the Miami Heat.

In the West, the Minnesota Timberwolves face the San Antonio Spurs, and the Golden State Warriors face the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The two games in the second round of the playoffs kicked off on May 2.

Cavaliers vs. Hawks.

103 to 94. In the end, the Cavaliers led by James had the last laugh and won the game in the first round of the second round, thus making a good start for this series.

The other game is the Warriors in the Western Conference against the Thunder.

The brothers Durant and Westbrook faced off against the Splash Brothers.

The process of this game also made many fans who watched this game say they were addicted. From the first minute of the game, both sides showed a very strong desire to win and a fiery state.

It can be said that the game between the Thunder and the Warriors at Oracle Arena showed a very high level of competition due to the efforts of both parties. In the end, after two overtimes, the Warriors still had the last laugh.

137 to 133, the Warriors defeated the Thunder by 4 points and also got a good start in the second round.

Although the Thunder lost the game, this game also gave the Thunder a lot of confidence.

The time has finally arrived on May 3. According to the schedule, the first round of the game between the Timberwolves and the Spurs will kick off at 6 o'clock tonight at the Target Center.

The Spurs arrived at the Target Center in the afternoon. A trace of exhaustion could be seen on the faces of Popovich and many players. It's no wonder that the Timberwolves eliminated their first-round opponent Dallas on April 23.

Mavericks, from the 24th to May 3rd, the Timberwolves rested for 9 days, while the Spurs struggled with their opponents for seven games in the first round, and each game was consumed by the Spurs.

With a huge physical reserve and only one day of rest, it is no wonder that most people were not optimistic about the Spurs' fate in this round before the game.

Popovich himself said in an interview that this round will be a difficult round for the Spurs.

Within thirty minutes, the three-point shooting rate increases by 30%, and the shooting rate decreases by 1% every minute. (Single guard buff.)

Within thirty minutes, the pick-and-roll ability is increased by 20%, and the defensive ability is increased by 20%. Each successful defense can increase the three-point shooting rate of the two players designated by the host by 1%. (Single forward buff.

)

These are the two buffs that Da Zhuang extracted from the system and prepared for this game.

And this small forward is what Da Zhuang values ​​the most.

After the two sides warmed up at the Target Center, they returned to the locker room before the game started in less than an hour, and the two teams will make final arrangements.

"Good morning, fans, welcome to watch the second round of the NBA 2015-2016 playoffs brought to you by Penguin Sports. The two sides are the Timberwolves and Spurs, which we are all familiar with. This is also a game between the two sides.

For the first round of the second round, we have just got the starting lineups of both sides. Now I would like to ask Zhang Zhi to introduce the starting lineups of both sides."

"Good morning everyone, the Spurs' starting lineup is the same as their starting lineup in the tiebreaker with the Clippers the day before yesterday. Point guard Parker, shooting guard Danny Green, small forward is Leonard, and power forward is Aldrie.

Odd, Duncan is at the center position. This lineup is also the lineup with the highest usage rate by the Spurs this season, whether in the playoffs or the regular season. I believe that when the rotation comes, the Spurs will still choose Ginobi.

Leila leads the team, but there are some minor changes on the Timberwolves side. The Timberwolves' starting five today are Dinwiddie, Middleton, Grant, Jokic and Oden. The only change is at the third position.

, Chen Dazhuang chose Grant today, I guess it was because of Leonard."

"Many people are optimistic about the Timberwolves in this game. What do you think, Zhang Zhi?"

"I am optimistic about the Timberwolves because the Timberwolves are waiting for work. The Spurs played all seven games in the first round. This is really too painful for veterans like Duncan and Parker. In addition, in terms of the lineup, the Timberwolves will definitely occupy the interior first.

It’s a huge advantage, there’s definitely no problem with that.”
