Good morning friends of the NBA! Today the league has 2 playoff games, which is expected to produce two teams that advance to the second round of the playoffs. There is a gap in the strength of the Bulls and the Bucks, who previously relied on DeRozan's outburst to win the next set, and the Bucks are at home, and I believe they will not miss this opportunity to advance to the second round. The last game the Warriors made a mistake in the last moment, missing the opportunity to sweep the Nuggets, and Curry also expressed his determination to advance today in an interview yesterday, expecting the Warriors to win at home today. Let's take a look at some of the hot news outside the market that deserve attention:
1. Fat Tiger sun "Naruto" theme portrait. Today Fat Tiger updated Twitter and posted a portrait created by Kishimoto, the author of "Naruto". He wrote: Anime has always inspired me, and Naruto's motto is to always believe in yourself.
2, the United States Yang Yi: Harden wants Rivers to leave class. When Yang Yi participated in a show, he said that if the 76ers did not perform well, Rivers would be dismissed and D'Antoni would come to take over. It's clear that Harden is the one who wants D'Antoni to be the head coach, so he's doing poorly.
Redick retorted: "I don't agree with you, Harden is very keen to prove himself, he knows his history in the playoffs, he knows he doesn't have a championship yet. I think his problem is that he hasn't fully recovered from a hamstring injury and isn't the best Harden right now.
3. Williams: James actually wants to play a lot. Today James released a video of himself dancing on vacation on an island in the Maldives. Former NBA player Jay Williams commented: "It looks like James is enjoying his vacation, he's tweeting and commenting on every game on TV, in fact this guy is very miserable, next year he wants to go to the playoffs, that's all his task.
4. Wei Shao emptied the social media content. Wei Shao today cleared his entire Instagram account of the entire content. Previously, he deleted the relevant content of his Lakers, Wizards, and Rockets careers, and today he cleared all the content. However, Wei Shao still retains his Laker cartoon avatar, and his Twitter content has not changed. Fan Comment: Is this the rhythm of breaking up and removing the ex?
5, melons leave the Lakers may go to the Nets. NBA reporters wrote about melon prospects. He wrote: Anthony will play at least one more season, and his first choice will definitely be the Lakers, because living and playing in Los Angeles is very comfortable, but if the Lakers can't solve the problem of coaching and player lineups, Anthony is not unlikely to leave the Lakers.
If you leave the Lakers, Anthony is very eager to return to his hometown to play, and the Knicks and Nets have a chance. Given the Knicks' overstep of players in the same position, the Nets' chances are the biggest. Anthony could play a three-point shooter role around Durant and Irving.
6. Caruso will be absent from the G5. According to Mingji, Caruso will miss the fifth game of the series for triggering the concussion agreement. Note: LaVine was also absent from G5 for triggering the Alliance Health and Safety Protocol. Fan Comment: The Bulls' journey this season is over.
7. D'Antoni: The Nets are in a weird situation. D'Antoni said the Nets' situation this season has been so bizarre that they've had so many things this season that they struggled for a month for a play-off spot. The Nets need a chance, and they haven't proven to people what they can do. New York City is in too much of a hurry, and I hope the Nets get a chance next season.
8, Van Jordan is unlikely to play in the G6. Today the Raptors officially updated the team's injury report, in which Van Jordan is unlikely to play in the G6 due to a left hip flexor strain. Note: Van Jordan is already absent from the G5.
9. The first brother will be reviewed after 1 week. Today the Warriors officially announced that Iguodala will be reviewed in 1 week after a left cervical disc injury. At the same time, he will also be absent from today's G5.

14, today's Warriors starting will be death five small. According to Mingji, the Warriors are expected to have Curry, Klay, Poole, Wiggins and Green start in today's game. Fan comments: Death Five is used to close the game at the last moment, and the opponent has plenty of physical strength at the beginning, so it may not be too effective.
15 Malone: The people who say Jokic is a data MVP are fools. Recently, some people in the outside world call jokic a "data MVP", to which Malone said, I don't know what to say to these fools, Jokic is a great player, just because he can't face the three-man dunk to hate us? Curry and Bird are both historic players and Jokic's role in our team is incredible.
