preface:
Soon the NBA is about to usher in the most high-profile playoff battle, but in the playoffs this stage is full of uncertainty, everything is possible, so the simple way of fighting superstars in the regular season has not worked in the playoffs, you know, the playoffs are not only the stage of superstars, various factors are intertwined here, only the teams with all aspects can fight for the final championship.
The soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first
For a team that aims to lift the championship trophy, if you wait until the playoffs to start to prepare, then there is no doubt that you will lose at the starting line, and the teams that are really preparing for the playoffs will generally be ready before the start of the playoffs, which is why at the end of each season, each team is constantly taking turns off its main players, after all, the final stage of the regular season and the beginning of the playoffs are completely two intensities of the game, and at the end of the season, anyone will relax. However, once you enter the playoffs with this relaxed state, you will undoubtedly not be able to adjust, but if you choose to take a break, you can practice in the training class in advance and become familiar with your first-round opponents, which is more conducive to the preparation of the playoffs.
Some teams are very stubborn, before the start of the playoffs still do not plan to take a break of their own main player, the final result is to lead to the team cloud, which can take this season's Lone Ranger as an example, the Lone Ranger tomorrow morning to determine the position of the upper half of the West, and the rival Warriors in the case of the big score ahead of the Pelicans, the Lone Ranger has no chance of the third place in the West, but the Lone Ranger not only does not let the main force rest, but let the core of the team play the whole field, and eventually lead to the strain of Doncic's hamstring, This strain does not matter, it is likely to make him miss all the games in the first round of the playoffs, and for the Lone Rangers, their own strength with the fifth-place Jazz is between Bergon, and once the main player is absent, the impact on the team is irreparable.
So most of the teams have actually begun to prepare for the playoffs after locking up the playoffs, and will not fight for the regular season, take the Suns, they have established the league's first position early, so at the end of the season, fully prepare for the playoffs, completely take a break from their own main players, so that they have a chance to breathe, so that they can come up with better performances in the playoffs, compared to the operation of the Lone Ranger is incomprehensible, if the early stage can not be prepared, It's hard to believe that a team can do well in the playoffs because what everyone else is doing, you can't maverick.
See the tricks, leave the back hand
For the playoffs, it is certainly not only the confrontation of the players, but also the confrontation of the head coach, because each team must play at least multiple games, which will be familiar to them, if seven games are played, basically a team can adjust the room is gone, the bottom card is also all shown, there is no room for maneuver, and this time it depends on the head coach's on-the-spot command and tricks, so the playoffs are also the stage of the head coach, only the kind that can reflect after the end of the game, Only by adjusting the head coach of his deployment in time can he lead his team to a higher peak.
In addition, the playoffs are also the stage for the Wonders, there are many players may not be known in the regular season, but once it comes to the playoff environment, when it comes to the need to play on their own, it may burst out of greater energy, take DengTai-Jones in the sixth game of the 2016 NBA Finals as an example, in just a few minutes of his play, he won several points for the team, and even caused Green's foul, and also helped the team win the sixth game of the Finals. Jones is not a regular rotation player on the Cavaliers themselves, and it is okay to say that he is here to make up the numbers, which means that every team will have backhands, and these backhands are often the key to determining the outcome of the game.
So a championship-level team, first of all, there must be enough players who can play, to have enough lineup reserves, these players do not necessarily have to play in the regular season, but in the playoffs may bring unexpected surprises, any team will not show all their hole cards in the regular season, if all the bottom cards are shown, then this team will definitely not be a championship level team, the real championship team will have a backhand, such as the Warriors in 2015, The Warriors were very cautious about using the five small lineups during the regular season, but even the finals were put on such a lineup at the beginning of the game, which surprised opponents.
The team's "sixth man"
The playoffs are too much pressure for some players, and in addition to the importance of the game can bring pressure to these players, fans can also play a great role, and fans are known as the real "sixth man" of the team, in the history of the NBA, there are many moments of fan merit, such as the Utah Jazz vs Chicago Bulls Carl Malone was ridiculed postman not to work today, resulting in a complete collapse of mentality, and finally missed the championship, this is the power of the fans.
Therefore, the playoffs are also a moment of competition among fans, every year there will be a lot of fans to grab the camera, looking at the mountain tsunami of fans, any away player will be timid, but once they appear timid, it is likely to tilt the balance of the game, which is also the key to the home-away advantage.
epilogue
On the playoff stage is definitely not a one-man or two-person war, it is a team, it is a contest between cities, so the playoffs will become so wonderful, will be so eye-catching, soon the playoffs will start again, fans can feast their eyes, which team can laugh this year? We'll see!
