On May 12, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs continued, and today the Cavaliers sat at home to welcome the challenge of the Celtics, the Celtics were obviously more prepared for this game, they gave up the pinch Mitchell, let him go to singles, and then cut off the connection between him and his teammates, although Mitchell is powerful, but it is impossible for one person to play a team, and the Cavaliers also lost to the Celtics 93-106.

36 million playoffs average 12 points per game! The Green Army's 4-for-3 was considered a great value at the beginning, but now it looks like a big loss

In this game, Mitchell scored 33 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals, and so far in the playoffs, he has scored 30+ in 5 games, and only he and Brunson have done it in the league, and he has proved his ability to play tough battles. However, his teammates are too weak, Garland shot 6 of 15 from the field, 1 of 6 from three-point range, got 15 points, 3 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 block.

If it weren't for Mobley's strength enough, the Cavaliers would have surrendered their guns a long time ago, and Mobley showed his advantage on the inside, he shot 7 of 11 from the field, and 0 of 1 from three-point range to get 17 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal, after the start of this series, Mobley has scored 17+ points in 3 games, and only one game scored 17 points in the game against the Magic, what does this mean? Does it show that Mobley has evolved?

No, the reason why Mobley played well is because the Green Army's interior line is too bad, Kornet's mobility is limited, if he plays, he will be beaten by Mitchell's various point lists, although the old Horford still has gas in the tank, but he is here at this age, his movement speed and physical fitness are severely limited, this game Horford shot 1 of 7 in the game, 0 of 6 three-pointers got 2 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists, not to mention that Horford played badly, he is 38 years old, and he can do his best on the defensive end.

Speaking of the Green Army's interior line, we have to mention Porzingis, if there is Porzingis, the Green Army's interior rotation may be better, although the defense will not be much improved, but the offense has at least improved, and Porzingis is still young, he has physical fitness, but Porzingis has missed 4 playoff games because of a calf injury, because of his absence, the Green Army has not been able to play at the level it should be.

Although the luxury of the Green Army's lineup is comparable to that of the Galaxy Battleship, their lineup is not invincible, if they reach the Finals, they may not be afraid of the Thunder and Mavericks, but if they meet the Timberwolves or Nuggets, they will inevitably be deflated, because the Green Army's internal disadvantage is too great, even if Porzingis returns, it is impossible to make up for it.

In the playoffs so far, Porzingis has played in games, and he has averaged only 12.3 points, 5 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.5 blocks per game. It's not normal, because Porzingis doesn't have a lot of balls, he just plays very inefficiently, so far in the playoffs, Porzingis has shot 39% from the field, the interior killing efficiency is very bad, and many times he can't resist the inside line, and can only shoot three points.

Looking at the current Porzingis, I don't know if Stevens will regret the original deal, if they keep role players such as Smart and Lowe, and only bring in Holiday they may be stronger, Porzingis played for the Wizards last season and averaged 23.2 points, 8.4 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game, the main reason is that he has absolute possession of the ball, relying on the performance of unlimited firing rights, and in the face of a bad team like the Wizards, the opponent does not need to defend seriously to win, let him brush.

You must know that Porzingis was traded to the Wizards, but the Mavericks swallowed Bertans' garbage contract, and they also treated Porzingis as a garbage contract at the beginning, but the Green Army now treats him as a treasure, such data is not a star at all, and Porzingis's annual salary this season is as high as 36 million, his performance and his injury risks, Boshen is a proper premium contract.

And before that, the Green Army also renewed Boshen in advance with a 2-year 60 million contract, and it is estimated that now Stevens will regret it, if the Green Army can't win the championship this season, White is facing an early contract extension in the offseason, and Tatum is also facing an early contract extension, in this case, the team may try to trade away Porzingis to free up salary space, but if you want to send him away, it is estimated that you have to take a bargaining chip, after all, he is too premium.

In order to get Porzingis that year, the Celtics sent Smart, Gallinari, Muscala and a second-round pick, and got a second-round pick and a first-round pick from Porzingis and the Grizzlies through a three-way trade. For now, the deal is a loss for the Greens. Speaking of which, what do you have to say about the current Celtics? Welcome to leave a message to discuss.
