Beijing time on May 11th, the NBA playoffs are in full swing, yesterday's game Celtics was upset lost to the Cavaliers, the Mavericks also successfully defeated the Thunder, it can be said that after the G2 game, the playoff situation of the two teams has also changed a lot, after all, the next game Cavaliers and Mavericks will return to their home games, when the Celtics and the Thunder will face great challenges, especially for the Thunder, if the Thunder can not adapt to the physical confrontation intensity given by the Mavericks, Then it is quite difficult for the Thunder to defeat the Mavericks, and after the Mavericks and Cavaliers have completed the rebound, the Nuggets and Pacers also need to bottom out.
At 7 o'clock, the Pacers hosted the Knicks, and in the end the Knicks were sorry to lose to the Pacers, although the Knicks were missing Anunoby, but in this game the Knicks came off the bench with a strange soldier like Burks, and DiVincenzo also played an excellent performance, in this game DiVincenzo also hit down 35 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, but unfortunately Brunson's performance in this game was not good enough, and at the critical moment Brunson also made mistakes, and the hasty shot shot also directly appeared three shots, In the end, the Knicks were powerless. Although the Pacers won the game, judging from the course of the game, the Knicks played too hard, and even if Nembhard didn't hit a three-pointer in the final moments, then the Pacers really might not be able to win, so the Pacers couldn't rejoice too early.
At 9:30, the Timberwolves faced the Nuggets at home, and the defending champion Nuggets beat the Timberwolves by 27 points at the end of the game, when the two teams played such a result, it was still unexpected by many people, after all, from the G1 and G2 games, the Nuggets were really beaten by the Timberwolves without temper, but in this game, the Timberwolves' defense had problems, Murray played an explosive performance in the game, not to mention, Porter also had an excellent performance in the game, not to mention that Gordon seized the opportunity to hit three points here, That's why the Nuggets continued to expand their lead, and at the same time, the Timberwolves' offensive state in this game was too bad, missing three-point shots from the outside and hitting the inside line did not get the effect it should have, so the Timberwolves suffered a fiasco.
However, in today's game, the referee's blowing penalty has caused a lot of controversy, first of all, the referee has some problems in the game between the Knicks and the Pacers, the most obvious of which is that Hart counterattacked and was blocked, but judging from the replay, Hart's layup has already touched the board first, so Turner's block is undoubtedly the interference ball, but unfortunately the referee did not say this, and the follow-up Pacers' interference ball was also seen clearly, it can be said that this ball has a great impact on the Knicks, After all, the Knicks should have taken the lead at that time, but the referee's blowing made the Knicks passive.
In the game between the Nuggets and the Timberwolves, the referee's blowing penalty caused a huge controversy, after all, the referee directly changed the scale of the blowing penalty on the court in this game, you must know that in the playoffs, the referee still encourages the team to have physical confrontation, but the referee in this game did not blow the penalty like this, and it can even be said that the blowing scale of this game is very different from the previous two games, and in the face of such a situation, the Timberwolves have no way to play their own defensive intensity, after all, as long as the Timberwolves give the Nuggets a little physical confrontation, Then the referee will blow the penalty immediately, so the Timberwolves are also in foul trouble in the game, so the Timberwolves have no way to come up with their own defensive aggressiveness, although the Nuggets did rely on their strong offense to win the game in the end, but there is a saying that the referee's blowing scale is very unfavorable to the Timberwolves.
