Another group of 3-1! The Eastern Conference semi-finals were upset, and the two dark horses are expected to meet in the Eastern Conference Finals

On May 13, the NBA playoffs continued, with the Knicks defeating the Celtics 121-113 at home, leading 3-1 to get the match point ahead of schedule. In this game, the Celtics took the initiative early, and once opened to 14 points in the second half, but the team was in trouble later. Brunson led the team to chase points continuously and overtake, directly widening the score gap in the last quarter and finally won the victory.

In this game, the Celtics continued their previous momentum and entered the state early. White hit a series of shots from the outside to help the team take the initiative on the field, and then took the initiative on the field, taking the initiative on the field, taking the lead in the first quarter. After that, the Celtics have always taken the initiative on the court, and once led by 14 points in the third quarter. However, after that, the Knicks counterattacked, Brunson scored points one after another, and other players were able to contribute. They overtook the game after the third quarter. In the final quarter, the Knicks were so powerful that they directly opened the score difference, while the Celtics were unable to catch up and eventually lost the game.

For the defending champions, in addition to losing the game, they also had a major blow, that is, the core Tatum was accidentally injured in the end. During a no-confrontation, he suffered an ankle injury, then fell to the ground in pain, and then returned to the locker room in a wheelchair, which looked quite serious. This time, he performed very strongly. He played for 39 minutes, made 16 of 28 shots, 7 of 16 three-pointers, scored the highest 42 points in the game, and had 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals. Unfortunately, he suffered an injury this time.

As the Knicks won again, the big score has reached a 3-1 lead and got the promotion point ahead of schedule. In the Eastern Conference semi-finals, the first four games were scored 3-1. What is even more surprising is that the other team was not optimistic about the lead, and the Pacers led the Cavaliers 3-1. You should know that after the Eastern Conference semi-finals were released, the outside world generally saw the number one Cavaliers and defending champion Celtics, but unexpectedly, the situation is indeed one-sided.

You should know that the leading situation of the two teams is synchronized. In the first two away games, they all won and returned to home court with a big score of 2-0 lead. Then they lost in the home game G3 competition. After adjustment, both teams won the home game G4 and both won the match point in advance. As two dark horses in the Eastern Conference in this playoffs, I didn’t expect to meet in the Eastern Conference Finals, which is a bit surprising.
