Chapter 674: The Los Angeles Derby in the Playoffs(2/2)
The main reason is that Ross was injured and retired in the second game.
Rose's injury directly made the series lose its suspense.
In addition to regretting Rose's injury after the game, the fans were just lamenting the luck of the Mavericks.
In this way, another set of matches in the Western Conference semi-finals will be confirmed, and the Warriors will encounter the Mavericks.
According to previous statements, if no major accident occurs, the Warriors will advance and will most likely advance to the division final easily.
Compared with the West, the East plays in the first round basically in a stable manner.
The Knicks, Pacers, and Bulls all easily eliminated their opponents and advanced to the second round.
The most popular game between the Celtics and Wizards in the Eastern Conference was also unexpected.
Yao Ming led the team to tie the Celtics 2-2, but in the battle of Tianwang Mountain, he suffered a knee injury while confronting Garnett and was reimbursed for the season.
The post-match examination showed that Yao Ming's condition was not particularly optimistic.
This also scared Sun Hao.
Although his appearance had a great butterfly effect, it was not normal for Sun Hao to be scared when he saw Reed next door being seriously injured.
It was Yao Ming after all.
After calling, Yao Ming's situation was not as bad as in history, but it was not light. He was expected to lie down for two or three months this summer.
Yao Ming's contract just expired this summer, which is obviously not good news for him.
However, Sun Hao could only persuade Yao Ming to relax.
After all, from Sun Hao's perspective, Yao Ming in history has retired at this time, and it is already a good thing that he can still play basketball.
After two days of rest, the semi-finals of the East and West Parts officially started.
The Lakers' game was scheduled on the second day, and they became visitors on the first day.
On this day, the Knicks and Bulls, Warriors and Mavericks encountered each other.
After the final game, the Knicks narrowly defeated the Bulls, while the Warriors were upset by the Mavericks!
It was only the first day that there was a big melon to eat.
Fans who had previously said that the Mavericks relied on luck were slapped in the face in this game.
Moreover, fans who have watched this game can feel that this upset is not the so-called Warriors' misperforming performance, but the Mavericks' playing better.
Chandler at the peak state obviously suppressed Oden, who was still growing up. Nowitzki's previous experience of playing the No. 5 position under Johnson also made the Mavericks not so passive when facing the Warriors' death five-year junior.
In short, it is different from the first round. It is not that easy for the Warriors to pass the Mavericks level.
This is a good thing for other teams.
Warriors who are determined to dynasty will encounter difficulties in the second round, and even if they can advance in the end, it will consume a lot. This is good news.
The next day, the Los Angeles Derby was in the high expectations of the fans.
The two teams are in Los Angeles. Although they have been in a shrinking season, they have played three games in the regular season. They are very familiar with each other.
In the first game, the Lakers lost to the Clippers 101-114.
Sun Haokong scored 51 points.
Sun Hao's regular season game was earth-shaking, but on the other hand, Sun Hao scored 110 points, and the Lakers narrowly won after three extra hours, which shows the strength gap between the two teams.
With the healthy Howard, plus the healthy Kobe and Gasol, although the Clippers look very similar to the "Lakers' New F4", they are much stronger in terms of strength.
However, in the second game, the Lakers won 114-110!
Sun Hao scored 61 points!
The third 60+ in the playoffs this year!
This made the fans faint.
It's really 60+ worthless?!
And this is not the era of small balls! What's more, the defense of the opposing Clippers is not weak at all!
While the fans were cheering wildly, some people noticed that Sun Hao had leg cramps after the game.
The intensity of the playoffs is that the Clippers are like the Clippers, and even if they are hit hard, they will not be able to bear it.
Sun Hao beat him like a god, but he was not a real god after all.
In the next two home games, Sun Hao gritted his teeth and led the team to win one at home. After four games, he tied 2-2 with the Clippers.
The two sides ushered in the Battle of Tianwang Mountain in the derby.
The absolute focus battle, but the excessive consumption of the Lakers made Sun Hao's wrist swell.
Although Sun Hao recovered quickly with the help of the team doctor and the "system", because the time from the beginning of Tianwang Mountain was too close, Sun Hao could only play with injuries.
He didn't even play during the warm-up before the game, so he asked the team doctor to make ice compresses for him all the time.
This scene was photographed by the on-site photographer, and the fans were worried and distressed.
The worry is because it is unknown how much strength Sun Hao can play, and that basically determines the Lakers' winning or losing tonight.
I feel sad because Sun Hao has paid too much for the Lakers from the regular season to now this season.
