nba playoffs have ended. The four teams, Timberwolves , Mavericks , Celtics and Pacers , have become the top four in the league this season. Among these four teams, only the Celtics played the easiest way. They swept their opponents 4-1 in both rounds of the series. Their star Tatum only averaged 24 points per game, but he was able to lead the team. Repeated battles and victories. There is no way, the Green Army has too many players with independent offensive capabilities. Brown, the second leader, has good athletic ability. His shooting in this year's playoffs is also very stable and very efficient. Players such as White and Holiday can also absorb some of the ball rights and help Tatum share the pressure. In the second round of the playoffs against the Cavaliers , Tatum scored 18 points + 25 points + 33 points + 33 points + 25 points in 5 games, for a total of 134 points.
Although the points per game average is not high among the core players, Tatum is still the undisputed leader of the Green Army. In this year's playoffs, he not only scores, but does everything, and also takes the lead on the defensive end. In the second round of the playoffs, Tatum averaged 26.8 points, 10.4 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game. In 5 games, he ranked first on the team in total points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks. He became the 2016 Finals After LeBron James, he is the first player to rank first on the team in these five statistics in a single round series. Of course, there are many stars with more explosive scoring power than Tatum. In this year's playoffs, Edwards is eye-catching, scoring 40+ points in a single game many times, and can often prove himself at critical moments. Played like a superstar.
So far in the playoffs, Edwards has averaged 28.9 points, 6.2 rebounds and 5.9 assists per game, becoming the third player in NBA history to average at least 25+5+5 per game at the age of 22 and enter the conference finals. The first two players were in 2001. Kobe Bryant and James in 2007. After 7 games in the second round of the playoffs, Edwards scored 43 points + 27 points + 19 points + 44 points + 18 points + 27 points + 16 points respectively, for a total of 194 points. When he feels good, Edwards can score easily when he wants to, but his performance in the series is still a bit unstable. He failed to score 20 points in three games. Sometimes his shot selection is not good. Of course, this is also the way to become a superstar. It is the only way to go. As the boss of the team, it is a good thing to dare to try at critical moments and not be submissive.
Edwards led the Timberwolves and eliminated the defending champion Nuggets . It has to be said that compared to last season, the Nuggets' dominance has declined a lot. The second-in-command Jamal Murray no longer has the tough attributes in the playoffs, and the three-pointers of the role players are collectively inaccurate. Only Jokic His status is still online, and he is struggling to lead the team. In 7 games of the second round playoffs, Jokic scored 32 points + 16 points + 24 points + 35 points + 40 points + 22 points + 34 points respectively, for a total of 203 points. During this period, he averaged 29 points and 11.4 rebounds per game. 7.9 assists, 1.6 steals and 1 block. Teacher Jokic has always been a team player and has few chances to finish by himself. However, in the series with the Timberwolves, Jokic also broke the boat and stopped paddling. He greatly strengthened his offensive aggressiveness and used it whenever he had the chance. Score by rushing to the basket.
Overall, Jokic is indeed the most powerful star in active service. After all, he has won the mvp three times in the past four years, but unfortunately, he is not enough to lead the team to create a dynasty. In the second round of the playoffs, Tatum scored 134 points, Huazi scored 194 points, and Jokic scored 203 points. So what about Brunson? Very outrageous. Brunson is worthy of being the player who has shown the most extreme scoring ability in this playoffs. In 4 consecutive playoff games, he scored more than 40 points in a single game, and scored in 5 games in the two-round series. 40+. In the second round of the playoffs, Brunson scored 43 points + 29 points + 26 points + 18 points + 44 points + 31 points + 17 points respectively, for a total of 208 points. Among them, g2 Brunson suffered an injury and played less than one session, and also left the game early due to injury in the tiebreaker.
Under such circumstances, he can still become the player with the most points in the conference semifinals, which is really amazing. Judging from the game, Brunson's hard-hitting ability is very strong. Although he is not tall, he is a heavy defender. He still has a good body and strong confrontation and core strength. He can often rush into the basket and score in confrontations. Even if he doesn't score, he has a high probability of causing damage and can stand on the free throw line.In addition, Brunson's mid-range is also quite accurate, which is also an important reason for his explosive scoring power. It's just a pity that this year's Knicks are plagued by injuries, and Brunson is not immune. They have stopped in the conference semifinals for two consecutive years. I really don't know how strong the Knicks are, who are completely and healthy. . Who do you think will win this year's championship?
