Chapter 381 380. Opponents that cannot be underestimated in the future

After the intermission, Carlisle sent out Jarrett Jack, Pietrus, Mike Miller, Okafor and Perkins.

On the other hand, Woodson no longer uses the rotation method of letting Pierce play alone while the other two rest and recover their strength tonight. During the rotation phase, the three major stars will play in pairs.

After the start of the second quarter, the Hawks led by Bibby and Pierce played like crazy, suppressing the Bobcats led by Jarrett Jack and Okafor.

As the saying goes, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. This time, the barefoot teams are obviously the Hawks. They are ranked seventh in the Eastern Conference, in the lower half. If they win, they celebrate, and if they lose, they forget it. This makes them fearless. Led by Bibby and Pierce, two extremely competitive players, they attack without hesitation.

However, the Hawks were not discouraged by the 1-point loss in Game 23, and the Bobcats did not become careless because of that big win.

Although Okafor’s overly calm speech gave Felton a headache, it still worked. During the team’s training yesterday afternoon and this morning’s pre-game preparations, Felton kept relaying Okafor’s analysis to his teammates, of course in his own way of getting people excited, saying that the Hawks are the enemy of the future and that they will be beaten into submission… His teammates were excited to hear it, unlike Okafor’s way of speaking, which would leave his teammates silent.

As a chaotic player, Jarrett Jack has a typical chicken-blooded personality. If he were in society, he would be easily instigated by people with bad intentions, but on the court, his personality combined with his playing style is a perfect fit.

Moreover, this opponent has poor defense, which is just right for him to perform.

The Bobcats used him as the main attacking point, Okafor as the auxiliary, with Pietrus cutting in, Mike Miller receiving on the wing, and Perkins containing the defense under the basket. This style of play greatly slowed down the Hawks’ pace of chasing points and overtaking the score.

The Eagles scored 18 points in the first half of the second quarter, but the Bobcats also scored 14 points. The Eagles attacked fiercely for half a quarter and only overtook by 1 point, leading 48-47.

In the second half, the combination of Zhang Yang, Felton, Hill, Millsap and Muhammad came on the court and continued to compete against the Hawks led by Pierce and Joe Johnson. The two teams played with a score of 15 to 14 in the second half.

At the end of the first half, thanks to the sudden cooperation between Zhang Yang and Felton, Felton received the ball on the wing and hit a three-pointer, the Bobcats tied the Hawks 62-62 and entered the halftime break!
After working hard for a whole quarter and finally getting a slight lead, the opponent’s three-pointer finally tied the score… This would definitely be a very unwilling thing for the team that was tied.

But the Eagles players were not in such low spirits. The experience of the last disastrous defeat instead became a mood regulator. They fought hard for the entire second quarter, but lost 2+1 on the last ball. Not only did they fail to narrow the gap in the first quarter, but they were also widened by two points. This time it was considered good, at least they tied at halftime.

After the halftime break, Woodson sent out the starting lineup directly in the third quarter. He took care of the third quarter first and then talked about the rest. If the team collapsed again in the third quarter, it would be useless even if they saved their energy.

Offensively, the three big stars led the team with their personal abilities, while defensively they tried their best to encircle and suppress Zhang Yang.

The three big stars of the Hawks originally sneered at Zhang Yang’s title of “King of the Third Quarter”, but at least they didn’t really agree with it.

But after Zhang Yang scored 10 points in the third quarter in the last game, they recognized this title. Among the active players, the only ones they could think of whose third-quarter performance could match Zhang Yang’s were the two brothers from Class of 96 who were competing against each other in the West.

On the Bobcats side, Zhang Yang still focused on containment, with Felton, Okafor, Jarrett Jack, Hill, Pietrus and others taking the lead in attack.

Felton and Okafor were the main attackers. According to scientific statistics, the third quarter is the quarter with the worst physical strength and touch for role players, not the fourth quarter. By the fourth quarter, they had recovered. In the past, Zhang Yang supported the team’s scoring in the third quarter. This time, Zhang Yang was targeted too hard by the opponent, so the two of them took up the burden, used Zhang Yang to distract the opponent, and continuously attacked the inside!

The Hawks have more outside stars. If they had a center with sufficient rim protection ability, they would theoretically have an advantage in the third quarter, but they don’t.

费尔顿和奥卡福没有掉链子，费尔顿这一节进了1个三分、两个抛投、还有1次两罚中一，出场9分钟拿到8分；奥卡福5投3中拿到6分，在两人带领下，山猫队第三节拿到26分。

The three superstars of the Hawks fought hard for a whole quarter and led the team to 27 points, but only had a 1-point lead.

After three quarters, the score is 89 to 88!

With the score difference of one point, Zhang Yang rushed into the paint and made a layup with the European step to overtake the opponent at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

After the Eagles came back from the intermission, they relaxed their double-teaming on Zhang Yang a little bit, and Zhang Yang seized the opportunity to score.

Horford and Othella Hannington, who came on as a substitute, were very upset. This was not the first time. Zhang Yang played for 27 minutes in the first three quarters and scored not many points, 14 points, plus 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 block, but his shooting percentage was as high as 60%, 10 of 6 shots!
Zhang Yang will focus on success rate tonight, maintain control and create opportunities for his teammates.

The Hawks had to continue to implement the highest level of defense against Zhang Yang, including outside blocking, wing double-teaming, and inside support, and then play hard on the offensive end to compete with other scorers of the Bobcats.

Halfway through the fourth quarter, the score was 102 to 101. The Bobcats scored 14 to 12 in the half, overtaking the Hawks by 1 point!
After the official timeout, both teams replaced their starting lineups and entered the decisive half.

The Hawks attacked, Bibby broke through to close range and made a layup before Okafor could block it.

The choice of shooting position, the timing of shooting, the determination of shooting…the White Devil is showing his power again!

In the offense-defense transition, the Hawks players were ready to block the middle and the basket. Woodson was ready to take a chance. The opposing wing shooter could shoot or not. If he made the shot, they were unlucky. If he didn’t, they would make a profit.

But after Zhang Yang received the pass from Felton one step inside the three-point line, he turned around and jumped, taking a long two-point shot… and it hit!
Not only that, but Pierce was fouled for his hasty jump!
Zhang Yang had been playing very reasonably tonight, but suddenly there was this shot, which caught Pierce completely off guard. After he reacted, he jumped up and hit Zhang Yang on the arm!

Pierce knows too little about Zhang Yang. He keeps an eye on players of his generation and players he has grudges against. If he was like that guy from the same class, who would be jealous of anyone scoring high points and find fault with all the top scorers, he would know that Zhang Yang doesn’t mind giving up power and giving away the shooting right and the ball during regular time, but at critical moments, he would get angry with anyone who competes with him for a shot!
Zhang Yang made the free throw, the score came to 105 to 103, and the Bobcats regained a two-point lead!

After making a contribution on the offensive end, Zhang Yang turned around and decisively attacked when Joe Johnson was making a turnaround jump shot with his back to the ball. He jumped up and cut off the ball that Joe Johnson was lifting with one hand, and then snatched the ball from the ground and threw it to Brad Miller, making another contribution!
Brad Miller raised the ball high and passed it to Felton with a flick of his wrist. Bibby, who was trying to steal the ball, quickly retreated.

Zhang Yang got up and ran to the frontcourt, received the ball and continued to play one-on-one. This time Pierce did not give Zhang Yang a chance to sneak attack and stuck very closely to him. Zhang Yang changed direction and rushed to the right side of the three-second zone. Facing the encirclement of Pierce, Horford and Bibby, he jumped up and shot before being approached… The move was picturesque, and he looked extremely domineering when playing one against three. Unfortunately, he didn’t make the shot, but!

Okafor started from the left elbow area, took two steps to the line of the legal collision zone and jumped, then smashed the bounced ball into the frame through Pachulia!

107 to 103, the Bobcats’ lead reached 4 points!
Zhang Yang and Okafor’s 2+1 shot and dunk were extremely domineering, but they did not defeat the fighting spirit of Bibby and Pierce.

These two players entered the NBA at the same time. When they just started to become stars and the team had just reached the peak of their early careers, they met O’Neal and Kidd. Then the team entered a long trough. They have suffered too many blows. Now that their three outside players have gathered together, it is their last chance to fight at the age of 30. They know they can’t go far this year, but they just want to fight and want to show the spirit of winning at all costs.

In the next few rounds, the Hawks, led by the two, shot 5 of 3 against the odds, including a three-pointer, and outscored the Bobcats 7 to 6, narrowing the score to 110 to 113!

After Zhang Yang received the ball with his back against Pierce, the fans at the scene cheered with all their might.

The game came to an end, with a lead of only 3 points. Pierce, who was the worst at three-point shooting among the three outside players, had a 50% three-point shooting rate in 39.2 regular season games after joining the Hawks, averaging 1.8 three-pointers per game. This point difference was not safe at all, and the Hawks had played very well in the past 5 rounds.

After Zhang Yang and his teammates got into position, he turned around, took a step back, started dribbling, and broke through in a change of direction!

Pierce could no longer keep up with Zhang Yang, but the double-teaming and backup defense of the other Hawks players came faster!

Zhang Yang broke through to the right elbow area, and was surrounded by Pierce from behind, Horford in front of him on the left, and Bibby on the right. Pachulia also moved to the right side of the reasonable collision area to defend his European step.

Horford was ready to defend Zhang Yang’s one-on-four shot, but something unexpected happened, Zhang Yang passed the ball!

Okafor cut in from the left and received the ball. Pachulia quickly moved to the left. Okafor took two steps and slammed the ball into the frame over Pachulia who was moving up!
This time it was not just a dunk. The referee blew the whistle and Pachulia was fouled while moving. Okafor’s goal was valid and a penalty was added!
Seeing Okafor walk to the free throw line, Carlisle, who was pumping his fist excitedly, sighed: “So this is what Jack meant when he said, ‘If I score two points, I don’t lose. If I don’t score, I gain two points and one rebound.'”

Vincent, who was also jumping up and down excitedly, asked, “Rick, what did you say… Oh, that twisted theory of Jack?”

Carlisle: “I used to think he was making excuses for his love of shooting, but now I understand that he was paving the way for him to make the winning pass at the critical moment. In the first few rounds, he was surrounded by three or four opponents twice and still shot. This time, the opposing players thought he would shoot, but he chose to pass the ball and the opponent was not prepared at all.”

Vincent: “That makes sense, but this style of play can only be effective for a player like him, and this little trick will be useless after being used once…”

Carlisle: “No, Jack, this trick will always work.”

Vincent: “Why?”

Carlisle: “Without so many people double-teaming him, or just pretending to double-team him, he can really shoot and make it!”

Carlisle was extremely excited. On the other side, Woodson watched Okafor make the free throw. The score came to 110 to 116, and the difference became 6 points. Woodson leaned back in his chair dejectedly.

The reactions of the two teams’ head coaches were reflected in the game, as Zhang Yang and Okafor connected to score 2+1, directly breaking the Hawks’ pent-up momentum.

If the score difference is 3 points, one goal can catch up. Even if the score difference is 1 points, there is a chance to catch up with it with one goal. 4+1 will do. Even if it is very low, at least there is a chance.

It’s different if it’s 5 points. This score difference is called a hurdle, and it takes at least two goals to catch up. Now the score difference is 6 points, so it takes at least two three-pointers!

When the Hawks attacked, Pierce did not give up. Facing Hill’s defense, he continued to play one-on-one and took a three-point shot… but missed! Hill interfered!

With this score difference, the experienced Hill only focused on Pierce’s three-pointer and ignored everything else!

Horford’s attempt to steal the ball was in vain, the twin towers positioned themselves, Zhang Yang grabbed the defensive rebound, launched a counterattack, rushed all the way to the frontcourt, passed Bibby and Joe Johnson who were on the three-point line, went straight into the paint, and made a flying layup.

There are 37 seconds left and the score difference is 8 points!
At this moment, Woodson also thought of the No. 1 player…

In the last 30 seconds, Pierce threw two balls but neither went in. Hill also responded with a three-pointer and neither team scored.

The game ended at 9:21 pm.

老鹰队方面，乔-约翰逊21投11中，其中三分球6中3，加上4中3的罚球，拿到28分4板3助攻；

皮尔斯23投10中，最后连打三铁把五成命中率给干没了，其中三分球8中2，加上7中5的罚球，拿到27分8板4助攻；

毕比17投9中，其中三分球4中2，加上4中4的罚球，拿到24分7助攻；

霍福德9投5中加上2中2的罚球拿到12分9板3助攻……

山猫队方面，张杨17投10中，其中三分球1中0，加上3中3的罚球，拿到23分5板7助攻3抢断；

奥卡福16投9中，加上6中4的罚球，拿到22分14板3助攻3盖帽；

费尔顿20投9中，其中三分球5中2，加上10中9的罚球，拿到全场最高的29分；
加上贾莱特-杰克的9分3助攻、希尔的8分4板2助攻、布拉德-米勒的8分5板3助攻、米尔萨普的6分7板3助攻……

118 to 110, the Bobcats took advantage in the final moments, narrowly beating the Hawks by 8 points and leading 2-0!

…

…

After the game, Felton, who scored the highest points of the game, attended the press conference. When he came to the physical therapy room and saw Zhang Yang, Felton began to complain about the group of reporters: “I feel that they think we won as a matter of course, but they kept telling me that the Eagles have the ability to turn the tables. It was the same reporter who asked two questions. I wonder if he has a mental problem.”

Zhang Yang: “Being able to make such a guess at least proves that you are mentally sound and understand what they mean.”

Felton: “Why do I feel like this isn’t a good thing to say?”

“Those reporters may want to have the best of both worlds. The Hawks’ stars have quite a lot of fans, and there are many fans of homeless teams who like their stars who are willing to sacrifice for each other. We have a lot of fans as well, so they may want to please fans on both sides. It may also be to avoid making wrong predictions. In the first round last year, Yao and McGrady led the Rockets to a 2-0 lead over the Jazz at the start, but who would have thought that the Jazz would turn the tables 4-0?” Hill, who was standing aside, saw that the topic was going off track from the beginning and quickly changed it back.

Felton: “Isn’t it normal to be willing to sacrifice for each other? Every strong team is like this! It makes them sound so special.”

Zhang Yang: “That kind of fans probably don’t like stars who are willing to sacrifice for each other, but rather like stars with fewer fans, because that makes them seem special.”

Felton: “I understand what you said. I had a teammate like this in college. I like Kidd, Marvin likes Malone, Sean likes O’Neal…but he likes Snow. At first I thought it was his freedom to like whoever he wanted, and I didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. But every time we talked about stars, he would talk about how good Snow was, and that without Snow the 76ers couldn’t beat the Bucks and couldn’t make it to the finals. After so many times, I didn’t want to talk to him anymore…”

Hill: “…”

Well, the disease has become more serious and can’t be cured.

However, Hill liked Felton’s words, “Isn’t it normal to be willing to sacrifice for each other?” He thought that Felton was worthy of being a member of the NCAA championship team. No wonder he was able to conquer the team and become the boss after entering the NBA.

At the same time, he thinks Felton is lucky. If he didn’t have teammates like Zhang Yang, Gerald Wallace, and Okafor at the beginning, or if the backcourt didn’t have the strength to suppress him or compete with him, Felton would probably lose those good habits in college like most high-draft rookies.

Zhang San, Xiao Fei, Xiao Duncan, and the Crown Prince, Hill recalled the shocking feeling he had when watching the Eastern Conference Finals and the Finals last year. Four young and limitless teenagers reversed the situation and defeated the Pistons and Spurs, two strong teams that have dominated the NBA for many years, to win the championship…

Unfortunately, the group only lasted for one year before disbanding due to salary issues.

Zhang Yang will definitely get a maximum salary, Okafor has already negotiated a second-maximum salary, and Felton has already negotiated a contract that averages tens of millions per year…

After a night’s rest, Zhang Yang left Charlotte with the team the next afternoon and came to Atlanta. He rested for another night and came to the Philips Arena to prepare for the game.

Looking at the brand new training facilities in the stadium, Zhang Yang asked curiously, “Are they replacing everything to celebrate the playoffs?”

Hill responded, “They replace the latest equipment every year after the regular season ends. The purchase arrangements have been made long ago, but their leaders probably didn’t expect to make the playoffs this year.”

Zhang Yang: “Oh, it seems so. Every time I come here to play in the new season, I feel something is wrong. It turns out that they change the facilities every year, but I forgot about it after a few months. This time in the same season, I found something wrong… Does their boss have endless money to spend? Grant, you seem to know the Eagles very well?”

Hill: “The father of Hawks owner Steven Price, his father’s sister and his father’s sister’s husband, and my father’s college classmates, I have known him since I was a child, his father’s family and his father’s sister’s family are very rich, their two families’ Reitz Investment Group and Paul Management Group have formed a large consortium, is the top bond issuer on the South Coast.

Steven likes basketball. This team is his father’s property for him to train. But he is a man who only knows how to spend money. When he got the Hawks 10 years ago, this team was still a top-notch team. He also invited me when I changed teams in 2000. Fortunately, I didn’t come here, otherwise I would have been a burden to him. “

Zhang Yang: “Well, you think he will be a burden to you, right?”

Hill: “Haha, I didn’t say that.”

Zhang Yang: “…”

When mentioning the bond issuance consortium, he remembered that in the future Hill became one of the owners of the Hawks and spent 8.5 million US dollars to buy the Hawks together with some investors.

At that time, the market value of NBA teams began to surge. Many sports investors were surprised that Hill and his group of investors could buy a big city team at such a price. It turned out that there were some behind-the-scenes relationships involved.

However, Zhang Yang had that strange feeling again at this time – why did Hill like to show off his family background to him so much?

Mingming usually chats normally with other teammates, only talking about basketball, life, family and interesting things, but when it comes to him, he starts to show off.

Is it because he is jealous of Zhang San’s greater basketball talent? But it doesn’t seem like it!

If you can’t figure it out, stop thinking about it, stop chatting, and focus on preparing for the battle!
…

At 4 pm on April 27th, at the Phillips Arena in Atlanta, the Bobcats and the Hawks started the third game of the series.

两小时23分钟的比赛过后，回到主场重振旗鼓的老鹰队以114比109击败山猫队，拒绝0比3落后！

Tonight, Pierce, who had been suppressed for two games, broke out, making 26 of 14 shots, including 4 of 1 three-pointers, plus 6 of 5 free throws, scoring a game-high 34 points, plus 10 rebounds and 3 assists.

Joe Johnson steadily got 20 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists. Although Bibby’s score was not high, only 17 points, which was less than the previous two games, he was still able to score when it was time to score, and he had a big outbreak in organizing the offense, getting 14 assists!
Pachulia played 39 minutes tonight, setting a new career high. In terms of scoring, he only made 7 of 1 shots and got only 4 points. He was blocked several times by Okafor, Perkins and others, but he got 15 rebounds and had a big outbreak.

加上奥塞拉-哈宁顿的2分2板、霍福德的13分5板2助攻、柴尔德里斯的18分、所罗门-琼斯的6分，老鹰队10人上场只有8人得分，但8人拿到了114分，表现狂暴。

As for the Bobcats, the team offense was much stronger, with all 11 players scoring. Okafor made 10 of 7 shots and 7 of 4 free throws for 18 points, which was not bad, but they only had 6 rebounds, which were snatched away by Pierce and Pachulia tonight.

费尔顿的17分11助攻、布拉德-米勒的11分3板2助攻、迈克-米勒的13分……都还行。

The loss was due to the protection of defensive rebounds and Zhang Yang’s point… Zhang Yang scored 32 points, the second highest in the game, but only made 30 of 12 shots, including 6 of 2 three-pointers, plus 8 of 6 free throws.

In a game, there are times when you play well and times when you play badly. Although he was very unwilling to lose and felt very guilty, his third year in the NBA is coming to an end and Zhang Yang knows how to adjust his emotions.

After a day of rest, on the 29th, Zhang Yang and his teammates once again stepped onto the court of Phillips Arena to face the Hawks in the fourth game of the series.

Zhang Yang’s shooting performance in the last game was terrible. Tonight, he made decisive adjustments… and shot more firmly!
After three games, both sides have figured out the opponent’s style of play.

The Hawks’ offense relies on their players. As Zhang Yang said to Felton and Okafor, no matter how many independent ways the players have to respond to the offense, after playing too many games, there will always be an end.

However, Woodson also saw through the Bobcats’ main offensive style of simple team cooperation. Although the Hawks could not organize a decent team defense, they could still grasp the key points.

At this level, what matters is the individual abilities of the stars.

The indomitable spirit that Zhang Yang displayed tonight inspired his teammates.

首节比分28比25、第二节比分26比28、第三节32比30，有来有回的打了三节后，末节山猫队打出了30比23的比分，在中段击溃老鹰队！
Tonight, Zhang Yang’s number of successful shots was still over 25, but his hit rate was completely different, 27 of 15 shots, including 5 of 2 three-pointers, plus 7 of 6 free throws, scoring 38 points!
However, the highest scorer tonight was still not him, but Pierce’s 39 points, but! Tonight, Pierce was the one who missed the ball. Pierce only made 30 of 13 shots and 4 three-pointers, but the number of three-point shots was 12, plus 9 of 9 free throws to get 39 points.

It wasn’t a bad performance, but in a game like this, Pierce needed to do better.

毕比拿到19分6助攻、乔-约翰逊24分、霍福德10分7板2助攻、柴尔德里斯8分、帕楚利亚4分9板、阿西-劳2分……老鹰队全队拿到106分。

山猫队这边，除了张杨的38分，还有奥卡福的21分13板、费尔顿的18分5助攻、米尔萨普的12分5板3助攻、迈克-米勒的17分……

117比106，山猫队客场以11分优势击败老鹰队，将大比分打成3比1！

Two days later, on May 5, the Bobcats returned to their home court to face the Hawks in Game 2 of the series.

张杨延续了G4的投篮表现，21投11中，其中三分球8中4，加上7中7的罚球，拿到33分。

奥卡福的16分16板2助攻3盖帽、费尔顿的15分9助攻、布拉德-米勒的9分4板2助攻、米尔萨普的16分5板3助攻……也都还不错，全队拿到112分。

But one of the three guys on the opposite side exploded again. The modern Jordan only took 18 shots, making 18 of 12, including 3 of 3 three-pointers, plus 3 of 3 free throws, and scored 30 points!
30 points is not scary, but shooting 67% from long distance and making all three-pointers is exaggerated.

In fact, Joe Johnson’s performance in the first four games was very stable, but too stable. He was only responsible for regular offense, and the key shots were taken by Pierce and Bibby. As a result, the media and fans ignored him when discussing this series. Unexpectedly, he suddenly came up with a fierce wave!
With Joe Johnson’s help, Pierce scored 26 points efficiently, Bibby scored 21 points, Horford scored a playoff-high 18 points, and Childress and Acie Law, who came off the bench, scored 12 points and 10 points respectively…

117 to 112, the three big stars of the Hawks brought the series back to Atlanta!

But this drama always has to come to an end. On May 5, the Hawks returned to their home court and tried to have another outbreak, but they collapsed. The team only made 4 of 82 shots, and the team’s shooting percentage was less than 31%.

Pierce had 25 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists, Joe Johnson had 25 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists, and Bibby had 16 points and 3 assists. The three looked okay, at least they ensured basic performance in scoring, but their teammates just couldn’t make the shots they passed to them. Of the team’s 31 goals, 21 were scored by the three of them, while the others took 33 shots and only made 10!
Later in the game, the Bobcats only defended these three players and the basket, leaving the role players who were shooting open!

The Bobcats’ shooting tonight was not as good as in the first five games, but it was also at their regular season level, making 5 of 83 shots, a hit rate of 39%.

By Game 6, the Bobcats’ advantages in overall strength and lineup depth were fully demonstrated.

张杨今晚只打了33分钟，14投8中，其中三分球7中4，加上4中4的罚球，拿到24分8板3助攻3抢断。

奥卡福18分8板、布拉德-米勒14分8板8助攻、费尔顿15分6助攻、迈克-米勒12分、米尔萨普11分11板3助攻……

105 to 93, the Bobcats easily defeated the Hawks.

After the final whistle, Zhang Yang and his teammates gathered together to celebrate.

6场战罢，他场均30分6板4.5助攻2抢断0.5盖帽，率领山猫队4比2击败老鹰队，晋级第二轮！
Listening to the boos from the fans, Felton said with regret: “If only we had won at home the day before yesterday, we would have advanced to the next round and heard the boos…”

Zhang Yang: “Since we can’t resist, let’s just enjoy it. We are the winners anyway!”

Felton: “That’s right. We beat them so badly that they could only be booed to end the season. But I didn’t expect that we would actually play the Hawks to the sixth game. I’m not used to it. We used to crush them in the first round.”

Okafor interrupted strongly: “Different opponents naturally have different situations. We were able to sweep the Cavaliers because we just happened to completely restrain them. The Hawks can win one or two games against anyone, just like Jack scored 4 points with a high hit rate in Game 38 and the opponent was directly defeated. The Hawks have two players like this. Our future…”

Felton: “Yes, yes, we can’t look down on the Eagles just because we beat them this time. We must pay attention to this opponent in the future.”

Okafor: “…”

The traitor misleads the team and the boss is incompetent!

It is worth mentioning that the Magic and Cavaliers were tied at 4-1, and King followed the path of a senior high school student…
