king of defenders

Chapter 1533 First round, sweep

When the first quarter ended, the Nets still led by 11 points.

Entering the second quarter, the Nets continued to expand the point difference. The strength of the Nets over the Eagles is not only Meng Yun, but also the bench lineup and experience.

The Hawks lack playoff experience, the bench lineup is not strong enough, and the bench depth is not enough to compete with the Nets.

The reason why a strong team is strong is that they are still strong in the playoffs. The Eagles are not yet a strong team. Attacking gives people a feeling of being stretched, and there is not much to do.

But the Nets are different. Their main lineup is strong enough, the depth of the bench is sufficient, and the bench lineup is still competitive enough.

This is a strong team that can go further in the playoffs.

When Meng Yun returned to the court, Coach Pierce hesitated, and finally did not replace Trey Young. If Trey Young was replaced, the team's offense would be greatly affected. It's also not good for growth.

"This is something he has to experience in his career. If he didn't meet the Nets or Meng Yun today, he will meet other teams and players in the future. Others will still regard him as a defensive player. Loopholes to target." Coach Pierce looked at Trey Young, "He must learn to overcome these, learn to play in this situation, and defeat his opponent."

on the field.

Trey Young was very calm, he was trying to adjust himself, he was still being targeted on the defensive end, other Eagles players were trying to help him, and Trey Young was trying to make contributions on the offensive end, so that To make up for their own disadvantages on the defensive end.

After getting through the initial anxiety and hesitation, Trey Yang also realized that he had to go through these and find solutions to the problems. Only in that way can he make progress.

He thinks about it. Making it to the playoffs this season is already considered a mission. They are unlikely to go far in the playoffs. The Nets are the first in the Eastern Conference, and they are only the eighth in the Eastern Conference. The lineup, the strength gap is there.

In this day and age, star groups have become the norm, and the teams that can become the No. [-] team in the East and West are almost all superstar-studded, so unless there is something unexpected, such as a serious injury to a certain team, otherwise the black eight in the playoffs situation is almost impossible.

Since it is impossible to win this series after all, then simply regard this series as a kind of experience.

After figuring this out, Trey Young has become a lot calmer on the court. Although he has nothing to do on the defensive end, he still has a way on the offensive end. He catches the pick-and-roll and throws off Meng Yun, and then he has a lot to manipulate. Space, assist teammates, break through throws, or form a dislocation, use your good three-pointers to score, etc.
When Trey Young recovered his form on the offensive end, the Eagles gradually stabilized the situation and did not let the point difference continue to expand.

But that's all.

The Eagles couldn't catch up with the score. The Nets always held the initiative. Meng Yun firmly controlled the situation on the field and didn't give the Eagles a chance.

Until entering the last quarter, the Eagles were unable to catch up with the score, and the point difference remained at about [-] points, a relatively safe score for the Nets.

In the last few minutes, the Nets broke out collectively. Except for Meng Yun, others also stepped up to score, further expanding the point difference to 16 points.

The game has lost its suspense.

In the end, the game ended and the Nets beat the Eagles 122:110.

Meng Yun scored 29 points, plus 13 assists and 8 rebounds. Zhuang Shen scored 16 points and 12 rebounds. Harrell scored 24 points, but his height was a disadvantage, whether against Collins or Capela All suffered, and the problem of weak frame protection ability was also exposed, and the opponent scored a lot of points on him.

For the Hawks, Trey Young scored 24 points and added 7 assists. Collins played well, scoring 27 points and 8 rebounds. Capela had 13 points and 11 rebounds.
The first game of the series between the two sides ended here.

A day later, Game [-] of the series kicked off.

In this game, the Eagles are obviously more experienced than the first game, but the situation has not changed. The Eagles are still suppressed and always at a disadvantage.

In the end, when the game was over, the Nets won again.

Afterwards, the two sides came to the home court of the Eagles for the third game of the series. After the Eagles returned to the home court, they showed a strong fighting spirit, but it didn’t work. The overall strength of the Nets was stronger. Meng Yun scored 33 points. Harrell scored 27 points, Anthony 20 points, and Dinwiddie 21 points. The four of the team scored in double figures, easily defeated the Eagles, rewritten the series' big score to 3:0, and won the match point.

This is the gap in strength and the crushing of experience. The young Eagles still have a long way to go. This series is just training for them, nothing more.

The result of the fourth game of the series was the same as before. The Nets did not take it lightly. They did not give the Eagles any chance. Since they can sweep the opponent, why not?
Under the leadership of Meng Yun, the Nets defeated the Eagles again and swept the opponent with a big score of 4:0 in the series, ending the series.

The Hawks reached the playoffs for the first time in several years, and in the end it was just a round trip.

Several young players such as Trey Young and Collins were disappointed. Their first playoff trip ended like this. They did not win even a game. They felt regretful, unwilling, and also lost and sad. Young , always have to experience some setbacks.

The Nets are the first team in the East to advance to the second round because they are the first team to start the playoffs.

Immediately afterwards, the Celtics also swept the opponent Pacers 4:0 and advanced to the second round.

The match between the Heat and the 76ers was relatively intense, and they played until the sixth game, and finally defeated the 4ers 2:76 to advance to the second round.

The Bucks and Raptors have also reached the sixth game. The Bucks have not strengthened this season. Their lineup is already complete. Not enough chips to recruit players at the All-Star level.

The Bucks are still very strong, but the competition in the Eastern Conference is too fierce, and the strength of the Nets and Heat has increased, so they fell to fourth in the Eastern Conference.

After six games, the Bucks successfully advanced to the second round.

The first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs is all over. In the second round, the Nets will face the Bucks and the Celtics will face the Heat.
