After the Grizzlies eliminated the Timberwolves, the NBA playoff first-round showdown has all come to an end, and the famous basketball commentator Su Qun also expressed his views on the second-round series, he believes that the Suns and Warriors will play a Western Conference final, while the Eastern Conference, due to embiid and Middleton injuries, Philadelphia will be swept by the Heat, and the Bucks will also grab 7 to lose to the Celtics.
In the Suns vs. Lone Rangers, Su Qun was more optimistic about the former, giving him a 4-1 forecast. The Suns won all three of the regular season encounters, but it's important to note that all three of them occurred before the Lone Rangers traded Porzingis. And now that Doncic has more Dinwiddie around him and Bronson, who broke out in the first round, the team's attack has become stronger.
However, considering that the Suns Booker has returned, Paul is also in hot form, so in this round of the series, Su Qun is still more optimistic about the Suns being able to qualify.
In the Warriors' series with the Grizzlies, Su Qun is also optimistic about the former, and he predicted a 4-2 score. Although the Warriors were eliminated by the Grizzlies in the playoffs last year and are 1-3 behind in this year's regular season, the warriors are in the same state as in the past. In particular, the three brothers of Splash are in good shape, and the offensive firepower is fierce. However, The Grizzlies' Bain and Brooks are also very accurate pitchers.
In this series, whoever can shoot more accurately on both sides will have more hope of laughing to the end. With Morant shooting 4-of-20 from three-point range in the first round, the Warriors are likely to use it to develop a strategy.
In this series between Philadelphia and the Heat, the reason why Su Qun will give the Heat a 4-0 sweep prediction is because he feels that Embiid is out indefinitely and it is difficult to come back, and Embiid does not play, which will also make this series completely lose suspense.
After all, Embiid does not play, Philadelphia only has Harden left a core, while the interior can only use Jordan Jr. or Millsap, which will make it difficult for them to compete with the Heat.
The Celtics vs Bucks duel is considered by Su Qun to be the most unpredictable group duel in the second round. The two teams drew 2-2 in the regular season, and the Green Army swept the Nets in the first round of the playoffs, and the restriction on Durant was very successful, and the alphabet brother also had to have the help of outside shooters in the absence of Middleton around him to pass the level.
But in the end, Su Qun is still more optimistic about the Green Army, because the Celtics will have a home advantage in the seventh game, and it is possible to advance to the 4-3 score.
