On May 2, Beijing time, there are only two games in the NBA playoffs, the first game (7:30): Celtics vs. Heat, and the second game (10:00): Clippers vs. Mavericks!
Green Kai is looking forward to the promotion
Game 1: Although the Celtics lost G2 at home, but in the two games they came to Miami, Green Kai did not give the Heat too many chances, winning two games in a row, 104-84, 102-88, scoring in two consecutive games did not let the Heat exceed 90 points, leading 3-1 in the overall score, and has taken the lead in getting the match point, and only needs to win tomorrow's game to advance to the next round.
Boshen is absent from G5
Green Kai, who returned to the home court, could not make similar mistakes in G2, with players such as Otter Rabbit, Brown, and White having to take the lead, and Porzingis was unable to play in the G5 game due to a soleus muscle strain in his right calf. The Heat are a very tenacious team, but the injuries in the team are serious, Butler and Rozier are not able to play, and Hards is also injured and will be out of G5 tomorrow. For the Heat, the remnants of the lineup have been fought so far, and it's good to go all out. In the past two games, the Heat have not been able to open up the outside firepower, and they hope to regain their feel on tomorrow's road trip.
The Battle of Mt. Tenno
Game 2: The Clippers and Mavericks are the only series in the West where the first four games are evenly matched, and the only suspense left in the first round of the West, as the Nuggets eliminated the Lakers 4-1, the Thunder and Timberwolves both easily passed 4-0 in a sweep, and the Suns and Pelicans were embarrassed to go out.
Xiaoka is absent
Leonard didn't play, and the Clippers won G1 and G4 instead. We know Leonard wants to help the team, but only a healthy body can make the team go further, and coach Lu has confirmed that Leonard will continue to miss the G5 Tianwang Mountain game. Without Leonard, Harden and George have to let go, the last G4 two both broke out and scored 66 points, of which George shot 11 of 19, 7 of 10 three-pointers got 33 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, Harden shot 12 of 17, and 4 of 5 three-pointers contributed 33 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists.
The Lone Ranger avoided a losing streak
Tomorrow's battle against the Kings, the Clippers have home-court advantage, and they want to turn the advantage into a victory. In addition to the play of Harden and George, Wei Shao's shooting percentage in recent games is very low, in addition to contributing on the defensive end, he also needs to improve the efficiency of shooting, Mann, Powell, Zubac, Coffey's feel is equally important. The Mavericks rely on Doncic and Irving, the two cores can't just take beautiful statistics, and they need to continue to break out and lead the team to win.
