After nearly a month of contention, the NBA playoff semifinals G4 scramble is over, with the big score of the three-group series tied 2-2 in the East-West 4 semifinals.
Only the Warriors vs. Grizzlies are 3-1 in this group of showdowns, and the Warriors with a 2-1 lead in the big score will withstand the pressure of the G4 to play the next game, but the G5 will play at home to the Grizzlies.
In this case, the situation in the East and West is gradually becoming clear, with three teams showing their champions.
Group 1 Showdown: Warriors vs Grizzlies (3-1)
At the beginning of the series, there was no one-sided optimism for the Warriors, who were not ranked as well as the Grizzlies during the regular season, who had home-court advantage.
Even after the end of G1 and G2, the outside world still believes that the Grizzlies will bring big trouble to the Warriors, for the simple reason that in the first two games of the series, the Warriors scored a big score of 1-1, but the performance was not satisfactory.
It wasn't until the G3 Warriors delivered a 30-point victory that the outside world began to realize that this group of duels was the least suspenseful of the four groups of showdowns in the semifinals.
In particular, the G4 Warriors trailed by 47 minutes and did almost everything wrong, but in the end, after winning the game with Curry and Chasing Dreams, they also completely pronounced the end of this round of suspense.
Even if G5 will be played at home to the Grizzlies, Morant will most likely return, but the Warriors still have an absolute advantage.
On the one hand, because the Warriors' performance in G4 is very bad, there is a high probability that they will rebound in G5, and on the other hand, the Grizzlies may not be more competitive after Morant's return than when Morant is absent.
Group 2 Showdown: Suns vs. Lone Rangers (2-2)
Trailing 2-0 in the first two games, the Lone Ranger returned home and pulled two consecutive games to tie the score to a 2-2 draw.
If you look at the strength of the lineup alone, the Suns are still the team that occupies the absolute quality, and the G5 will be played at home to the Suns.
But in terms of the absolute ability of the star, Doncic is the best player in this round, and the current series has changed from 4 wins in 7 innings to 2 wins in 3 sets, the uncertainty has increased significantly, and the Lone Ranger has every chance to complete the upset.
Group 3 Showdown: 76ers vs Heat (2-2)
The 76ers' situation is similar to that of the Lone Rangers, except that the 76ers lost their first two games, mainly due to the absence of core Embiid.
After G3 Embiid returned, the team immediately won, and Harden returned to the peak of his dream in G4, handing over performances similar to those of the Rockets.
Judging from the competitiveness shown by the two teams, unless Embiid is once again plagued by injuries, it will be difficult for the Heat to complete the turnover, even if the G5 will be played at home to the Heat.
Group 4 Showdown: Green Army vs Bucks (2-2)
Compared to the previous group of duels, the Bucks and Greens are undoubtedly the two more competitive teams in the East, making this group of duels the most intense group duels during the semi-finals.
In the case of full health, the defending champion Bucks should have a certain advantage, because the core players such as Alphabet Brother have experienced the baptism of the finals and are better in terms of experience and mentality.
Helplessly, Middleton, the second leader of the Bucks, suffered from injuries, resulting in the Bucks' lack of a trustworthy endpoint at a critical moment, and also exposed the fatal shortcomings of the alphabet brother's lack of projection ability.
Therefore, from the current status of the divisional finals, the Bucks, Green Army and Warriors are obviously more champions.
Not only do the three teams have excellent squad depth, a seasoned coaching staff configuration, and at least one trusted star at the crucial moment.
The Warriors are in the best shape, not only with a neat lineup, but also with an advantage in the number of absolute stars, and if the Green Army can beat the Bucks, it will be the situation that the Warriors are most happy to see.
