There are only two games on the NBA playoff stage today, the Chicago Bulls against the Milwaukee Bucks, and the Golden State Warriors against the Denver Nuggets.
The Warriors put Curry back in the starting lineup and eventually beat the Nuggets 102-98 to eliminate their opponents on aggregate 4-1. The same was true for the Bucks, who didn't give the Bulls any more chances and beat their opponents 116-100 to advance 4-1 on aggregate.
For the Bulls, this season has been full of regrets because they could have tried to go further. In the middle of the season, the Bulls, who overcame their uneven personnel, played a dazzling record, once topped the Eastern Conference, and DeRozan was also considered a candidate for the regular season MVP.
But with the end of the season when Langzo Ball's injury season was reimbursed, the Bulls magic was gone. In the last game, the Bulls lost to the Bucks and Caruso was injured. Bulls core defender LaVine said he wasn't ready for the holidays and hoped his teammates wouldn't give up either.
Unexpectedly, LaVine triggered the NBA's health and safety agreement, and today's showdown was directly unable to play. Suffering consecutive blows, the Bulls no longer have the ability to fight, so they are defeated by the Bucks. Under the Tight Defense of the Bucks, DeRozan scored only 11 points on 5-of-10 shooting, and he was unable to return to the sky.
The Bulls have suffered so many surprises this season that LaVine can't play the final showdown reminiscent of George of the Los Angeles Clippers. George also failed to play in the playoffs because of triggering a health and safety agreement, and eventually watched the Clippers be defeated by the New Orleans Pelicans and missed the playoffs.
