On the 7th, the Magic defeated the Celtics and led 2-1.

What followed was the third game between the Clippers and the Nuggets. The Clippers challenged the Nuggets away from home.

The Clippers were in poor shape in this game and missed many open opportunities.

This is what the three-point team is like. When the touch is good, it is easy to beat the opponent, and when the touch is not good, it is easy to beat yourself.

In contrast, there is no such stable team that focuses on attacking inside.

The Clippers are not a three-point team in the strict sense. Zhang Zhiyuan and Maggette both made many breakthroughs.

However, their team relies more on three-pointers.

Once the three-pointers are not accurate and the efficiency cannot be improved, they cannot win. Their poor defense can always allow their opponents to score points steadily.

Other teams have a good chance of winning if they score 100 points, but not the Clippers. They must score more than 110 points to win, because they lose an average of 108 points per game.

This kind of loss of points ranked last among the thirty teams.

In the end, the Clippers lost their first away game.

105 to 109, the Clippers lost by 4 points.

In fact, Zhang Zhiyuan can defeat his opponent as long as he uses some props and improves his strength.

But he didn't do that, there was no need.

Anyway, you can definitely advance if you play against the Nuggets, and you can earn more ticket money by playing one more game.

Winning a game by relying on luck made Anthony feel better. He said he would defend his home court and regain his advantage.

In contrast, Billups' interview was much more low-key. He said he still needed to work hard and never mentioned Bao Ying.

Zhang Zhiyuan went into bullshit mode during the interview. He said that he lost on purpose because he was afraid that the fans would get tired of winning too much, so he deliberately lost one or two games to give the fans a change of taste.

Although this statement was immediately obvious to be nonsense, being able to joke about it so easily and calmly clearly showed that he was very confident.

After this game, most people are still optimistic about the Clippers.

On the 8th, in the fourth game of the second round, the Cavaliers defeated the Hawks again, sweeping their opponents 4-0 and leaving no face for their opponents.

After all, not everyone is as confident as Zhang Zhiyuan.

Even if James has a strength advantage, he doesn't dare to let go. It would be more secure to advance as early as possible.

Lakers vs. Spurs, in Game 4, the Spurs came back.

Duncan risked his life for the sake of face. He played 42 minutes and scored 37 points and 14 rebounds.

Kobe failed to continue his heroics in the last game, and the Spurs still have home court advantage.

Therefore, Phil Jackson gave up this game tactically and did not try his best.

3 to 1, the Lakers still have three match points, a huge advantage.

On the 9th, the Magic played against the Celtics.

This game featured a game-winner and a counter-winner. First, Lewis used a free throw to kill his opponent and take the lead by one point.

The Celtics' Glen Davis received a pass from Pierce at the last moment and hit a mid-range shot to defeat the Magic.

Tied 2 to 2.

The media commented that the Magic's performance at critical moments was very poor because they had only played 10 games in the playoffs and they had already been defeated three times.

It could be said that they were unlucky once or twice, but this happened three times, which is enough to show that their defense and mental quality are not good at critical moments.

Of course, it could also be luck.

On the 9th, the Clippers did not give the Nuggets another chance.

Zhang Zhiyuan broke out in the first quarter, scoring 15 points in a row, forcing the Nuggets to shrink their defense.

Then the Clippers blossomed from the outside and established a double-digit advantage in the first quarter.

Next, the Nuggets were in chaos, and the game was spent in just three quarters.

In the end, 126 to 99, the Clippers won the fourth game, leading 3 to 1, and already had one foot in the Western Conference Finals.

On the 10th, the Lakers faced the Spurs at home. The Spurs quickly surrendered and gave up resistance in the third quarter.

The Lakers advanced to the Western Conference Finals first.

No. 11

, the Magic and Celtics continue to fight fiercely.

In the end, the Celtics won this crucial victory, leading 3-2.

The biggest contributor to this game is still Glen Davis, nicknamed Big Baby, a second-year second-round pick.

He only averaged 6.5 points per game in the regular season. No one expected that due to Garnett's absence in the playoffs, this guy would seize the opportunity and output like crazy.

He is currently averaging 16.5 points per game in the playoffs, which is 10 points higher than in the regular season.

Most players' playoff data will be slightly lower than the regular season, and the general view is that the playoff data is more valuable.

It can be said that after this series, Davis' next contract should be very generous.

The question is, do the Celtics still have the salary space to give a big contract?

On the same day, the Clippers returned home and defeated the Nuggets 4-1, advancing to the Western Conference Finals and meeting the Lakers.

Kobe fans got what they wanted. Zhang Zhiyuan and Kobe finally met on this important stage. As long as they beat Zhang Zhiyuan in the Western Conference Finals, they would have very strong factual evidence to prove that Kobe is stronger than Zhang Zhiyuan.

Naturally, they won't pay attention to lineup factors, they only care about the results.

After all, this was not the 2005-06 season. At that time, they really liked to emphasize the lineup issue.

The game between the Lakers and Clippers was scheduled for four days, giving the media plenty of time to build momentum.

Kobe chose to practice extra during these four days, stay in seclusion, cut off contact with the outside world, and reject all outside interference.

The counterpart is Zhang Zhiyuan, who is letting himself go as if he is already on vacation.

On the 13th, he supported Ariana Grande's concert.

Said the concert was a bit flattering to her. At this time, Girl A was not well-known. She only performed in a jazz band. Those who came to listen to the music and watch the performance were not necessarily her fans. In other words, she did not have that many fans.

However, when the news came out that Zhang Zhiyuan would participate in this concert, the entertainment industry suddenly became a sensation.

They want to know how Zhang Zhiyuan met Ariana, their relationship, and why Zhang Zhiyuan suddenly went on stage to sing...

The most important thing is that the media also revealed that Ariana is only 17 years old.

Hey guys, the hot spot is here.

Among the many speculations, one media outlet actually guessed the truth.

Zhang Zhiyuan went to support Ariana, most likely he was stimulated.

Because a few days ago, Swift was revealed to have a new boyfriend, and she even sang on the same stage with her new boyfriend.

As Swift's ex-boyfriend, Zhang Zhiyuan would probably be hard-pressed to remain indifferent to this kind of news.

Therefore, it is very possible to deliberately praise other female singers and make Swift angry.

This media made a guess. There was indeed a reason why Zhang Zhiyuan went to help out, but there was another reason why Zhang Zhiyuan was going to explore the music industry first.

I just have four days of rest and can go have some fun.

He and Ariana didn't know each other, but it just happened that Ariana had a performance on the 13th, which was a coincidence.

Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have deliberately chosen a 17-year-old girl. It would only be for the eyes but not for the food, and it would easily get into trouble.

When Zhang Zhiyuan offered to help out, Ariana's manager naturally agreed with both hands and feet. This was simply more surprising than winning five million.

It is conceivable that after this concert, Ariana will become popular, and the media will not stop until they stir up their scandal for ten and a half days.

On the 12th, Zhang Zhiyuan and Ariana met, but the little girl was so excited that she couldn't even speak.

What surprised her even more was that Zhang Zhiyuan also wrote two songs for her.

Zhang Zhiyuan only memorized those classic songs, so what he brought out were all classics.

After singing it once, Ariana almost went crazy.

After practice, Ariana couldn't help but gossip: "Are you here to help out on purpose to make Taylor angry?"

"Yes."

Zhang Zhiyuan said.

Ariana was somewhat disappointed when she heard this. She also imagined that Zhang Zhiyuan saw her performance by chance and fell in love with her beauty.

Obviously, this fantasy is a bit silly. There are many more beautiful and sexy women in the United States, and they are all lining up to seduce Zhang Zhiyuan. How can I get her turn?

"But I can still help you stir up scandals. It will only be good for you."

Zhang Zhiyuan said.

On the 13th, the concert starts.

The theater, which usually has attendance of less than three performances on weekdays, was full at this time.
