…

129 to 100.

The Nets defeated the Celtics with a big win.

Lin Ying, Durant and Bradley all scored 20+ points in three quarters, and 6 people on the team scored in double figures.

For the Celtics, Thomas Jr. scored 16 points and 6 assists, Butler had 21 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals, and Howard had 12 points, 15 rebounds and 2 blocks.

During the handshake ceremony after the game, Lin Ying saw that Butler was in a very depressed mood.

If Jordan's frustration was just as a spectator when they played against the Hornets in the first round, then Butler was a participant.

But the same thing is that both of them lost and were unconvinced.

Lin Ying reached out and hugged him, touched his head, and said to him:

"It's a process of growing up."

Butler was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

Lin Ying's basketball experience is very rich. He also experienced this kind of internal conflict in the Nuggets, and it was much more serious than what Butler experienced.

"Shadow, how about we really try to get him back to Brooklyn?"

After finishing the handshake, Durant turned to Lin Ying and said.

It can be seen that Butler's performance tonight impressed him.

"Kevin."

Lin Ying stopped and looked at Durant seriously,

"Jimmy's ambition, you should feel it.

He wants to be a leader."

…

Another 4 to 0.

The Nets showed enough dominance.

But unlike when they played the Hornets, the Celtics put more pressure on the Nets.

Especially in G3 back in Boston, the Celtics seemed to have reached a tacit understanding, and the three cores played like a real team.

In that game, the Celtics only lost by a single-digit margin, and it was the closest they came to victory.

Then, just as Lin Ying expected, the Nets were forced out of their state.

By G4, the Nets were on full fire, ending the suspense of the game before the third quarter was over.

Then, the Nets waited for the results of the next round of games.

It was one-sided on the Nets side, and the remaining matches were very intense.

As far as the Eastern Conference is concerned, after four fierce battles, the Raptors and Cavaliers tied at 2-2.

At this time, I don’t know whether I should say that the Raptors are truly outstanding this season, or that the Cavaliers have declined due to Love’s problems.

The situation is similar in the Western Conference. The Warriors and Clippers, and the Spurs and Lakers all tied 2-2.

In the four-round semi-finals, three groups of Tianwangshan battles will begin.

…

"The good news is that we will probably have to take a whole week off. The bad news is that your plan seems to have been ruined."

Durant smiled and said to Lin Ying.

Lin Ying's "plan" refers to relying on Butler and the Celtics' tenacious resistance to help them get into better shape.

The state has been achieved, but the state needs to be maintained in the game. It was fine for three or four days, but nothing was found this week.

"Plans cannot keep up with changes."

Lin Ying said with a smile.

They did know before the game that there were some conflicts within the Celtics, but they didn't expect it to be so big.

"So, we can only eat snacks and lie comfortably on the sofa to watch their Battle of Tianwang Mountain."

"Why do I feel that your words are a bit itchy?"

Lin Ying turned around and said.

Now the two of them are lying in the private cinema of Lin Ying's home, preparing to watch the live broadcast of two games in a row.

One is the Cavaliers vs. Raptors, and the other is the Warriors vs. Clippers.

The two games were played one after another, so they spent the afternoon at leisure.

After graduation, friends not only work in the same place, but also play and watch football together. This is indeed a fairy-level enjoyment.

"Do you think the Cavaliers will lose?"

Durant said as he picked up a squid ring.

While they were chatting, TNT's live broadcast had already started. All the Eastern Conference games started first, and some home advertisements were still being shown.

Lin Ying shook his head.

"The Cavaliers have won all their home games, and this game is also the Cavaliers' home game."

Then he gave a very good reason.

"What about the Warriors and Clippers?"

Durant put down the squid ring in his hand and asked.

"Clippers."

Lin Ying thought for a while.

"Why is this? This is the Warriors' home court."

"Because I want the Clippers to win."

Lin Ying said.

Durant was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help laughing.

This reason is stronger than the previous one.

"Ying, you told me about flag."

Durant reminded.

"We are different."

Lin Ying waved his hand.

While he was talking, the game on the field had already begun.

Lin Ying and the others were enjoying the fight between the two teams while eating snacks.

This feeling of almost watching a play is really good.

However, their fun did not last long because the suspense of the game ended early.

The Cavaliers played an absolutely high-quality performance on both offense and defense in Tianwangshan, winning the game in three quarters.

Although he was a little reluctant, Durant had to admit that Lin Ying's body began to smell like sea.

"There's still one more game."

Durant said.

It wouldn't be surprising if the Cavaliers beat the Raptors, but it would be surprising if they lost to Tianwangshan.

Even knights like that are not qualified to be their opponents in a sense.

As for the Western Conference, although Curry is absent, judging from the previous four games, the Warriors are still stronger than the Clippers.

The beginning of the game did develop like this.

Curry was replaced by Barbosa.

Barbosa doesn't have Curry's three-point ability, but he does fit in well with the Warriors' style of play.

The Warriors started off well, even in the first half.

Then, the situation of the game changed drastically in the third quarter.

Cole directly used a small-ball lineup at the beginning of the third quarter, trying to widen the point difference in one breath.

But Deron and Griffin continuously attacked the basket and directly committed Green's fourth foul.

Rivers' IQ has taken over the high ground.

Without Curry, Green was forced to leave the game again, and the Warriors' offense was instantly paralyzed.

This has also become a key factor in determining the outcome of the game.

In the end, the Clippers defeated the Warriors 113-103 and directly got the match point.

After the game, Durant was a little confused.

Even God is Lin Ying's servant, cooperating with him to show off?

Lin Ying was also a little surprised, but still said calmly:
