The NBA playoffs are in full swing, and the teams have launched the most fierce competition for the championship, and the playoffs are also in chaos so far! The Timberwolves led the Nuggets 2:0, but their home court was continuously attacked by the Nuggets, and the two teams tied 2:2, and the Nuggets' hopes of turning the tables increased greatly! The Thunder and the Mavericks, the Knicks and the Pacers are also 2:2, and the series is very suspenseful! Only the Green Army leads the Cavaliers 3-1, and the promotion may be very large, and in general: the Green Army has no opponent in the final round, and the Nuggets' hopes of a comeback have greatly increased.
Thunder 2: 2 Lone Ranger!
In the series between the Thunder and the Mavericks, the Thunder won the first game, but in the second and third games, they were completely pressed and beaten by the Mavericks, and the Mavericks completely controlled the rhythm, and this round of the series also fell to the Mavericks.
Sure enough, in Game 4, the Mavericks still pressed the Thunder and once established a huge lead of 14 points! But at the last moment, Alexander struggled to support the team, and the Thunder finally opened fire on the outside, and the team completed a big reversal, won the fourth game, and tied the score at 2:2.
Equalizing the big score means a lot to the Thunder! If they lose the 4th game again, they have almost no possibility of turning the tables, but they can grit their teeth and win the 4th game, but they have regained the home advantage of the series, and more importantly, it has boosted the huge confidence of this young team and the hope of winning the series!
Overall, in this series, both the Mavericks and the Thunder have a chance, it depends on whether the Thunder can break through their lack of defense, or Irving Doncic finds his form.
Nuggets' hopes for a comeback have increased greatly!
As the defending champions, the Nuggets suffered a major blow in the semifinals, losing 2 home games in a row, and the team's situation is precarious! Fortunately, in the next two home games of the Timberwolves, the Nuggets won them all, and strongly pulled the big score to a 2:2 draw, and had a good chance to complete the comeback.
The Timberwolves' lineup is really restrictive for the Nuggets, they can run and jump, have good physical fitness, and have an advantage in interior height, which makes their defense unsuitable for the Nuggets! But as the series deepened, the Nuggets gradually found a way to deal with the Timberwolves, and the team blossomed more and played their own offensive system well! On the other hand, the Timberwolves are still good defensively, but the restrictions on the Nuggets are not so good, the key is that their offense is really bad, and if the team does not solve the offensive problem, it is not an opponent for the Nuggets at all.
In general, the Nuggets, who have won 2 games in a row, have an obvious upper hand in morale and mentality, the team's ceiling is higher, and the stability is better, while the Timberwolves are too young, the team's morale is suppressed, and it is difficult to find it back.
Knicks 2:2 Pacers!
The Pacers and the Knicks played a 2:2 draw, the two teams are really chess opponents, the strength is very close, and whoever wins this round of the series is no exception! However, overall, the Pacers' lineup is healthier, with more potential and explosiveness, while the Knicks are really too dependent on the main team, coupled with too many injuries, the team's physical strength and tactical changes have also been very problematic, and they are likely to be eliminated by the Pacers.
The Green Army goes straight to the finals!
4 semi-finals, 3 2:2 draws, the only absolute advantage is the Green Army, they have won 3:1, achieved 3 match points, and the 2 teams have a significant gap in strength, the next game is the home of the Green Army, the team has a good chance to take away the opponent 4:1, directly into the East Finals!
In fact, in general, the strength of the Green Army occupies a clear advantage in the East, which can be described as a dominant one, after entering the Eastern Finals, whether they meet the Pacers or the Knicks, the advantage is still obvious, it can be said that they have no opponents in the East, and there is basically no much suspense about reaching the Finals.
