The Cavaliers who entered the Eastern Conference early did not rest for too long. They began to watch the games of other teams seriously and have reached the present. In addition to the Warriors who broke out early because of Curry's comeback in the West, the other four teams are also very likely to become the Cavaliers' opponents.

Not to mention the Raptors and Heat who are likely to meet in the next round, the Spurs and Thunder, who are anxious to play in the West, are definitely in the strength to compete for the championship. The West is strong and the East is weak. Among the four top teams, there are three in the West.

However, the Cavaliers are now focusing on the Heat and Raptors in the East at the beginning. In fact, at the beginning, they didn't expect these two teams to answer for so long. The Raptors played for a long time in the first round. It may be because they didn't have enough experience in the playoffs. They were swept out by the Wizards 4:0 last season and were also beaten by the Pacers for 7 games this year.

But this time, the Raptors also played in Game 7, which is 57 wins this year. They faced opponents with more than 40 wins twice, especially the Heat in the second round. There was a big guy with an annual salary of 20 million yuan sitting off the court wearing a suit and watching you play the game.

In the seventh game, they finally completed a hearty victory at the Raptors' home court, but for the Raptors, it was not perfect. This was simply to drag down the Heat's physical strength to complete the final victory. Everyone knows that the core of the Heat is the 34-year-old Wade. The continuous flights of the home and the home in the last three games greatly affected his physical strength.

They are a team with 57 wins and think they are the only team in the East that can compete with the Cavaliers. Raptors fans have always believed this, but the two tiebreakers in the first two rounds made them feel that they are a little overestimating their team.

The first game of the Eastern Conference Finals was still in the Cleveland superstar. Unless you meet the Warriors, the Cavaliers can always maintain their home advantage, because the second-place Spurs in the league have been sent away by the Thunder.

Originally, the Spurs were ahead of the Thunder with a score advantage of 2:1. Aldridge beat all sides and felt that he was as unparalleled as Nowitzki in 2011. He scored 38 points in 18 of 23 in the first game, and scored 41 points in 12 in the second game. But the Thunder immediately changed his defensive strategy, one-on-one in the middle distance, and once he hit the bottom line, he immediately doubled.

Aldridge's ability in mid-range distance is almost the same as Nowitzki back then, but he was completely defeated in his ability to shoot. In the 2014 finals, VP Leonard was obviously at a disadvantage in the duel with Durant. The aging of GDP made them lose three consecutive games after this.

The Warriors and the Thunder's Western Conference Finals were a day earlier than the Eastern Conference Finals, and at the Oracle Arena in Oakland, the 73-win Warriors lost their first game victory.

This made the Cavaliers who were still training frown. It seemed that it was hard to say who their opponent in the finals was.

"Hey! Guys, pay attention to the game in front of you first. The Raptors are not a team that is easy to deal with." Blatt clapped his palms, feeling dissatisfied with the Cavaliers who have been paying attention to the game in the West.

The combination of Lowry and DeRozan is definitely the top three defenders in the league. Apart from the Warriors' pair of perverted Splash brothers, they don't think they will be weak.

But to say that, the Cavaliers, including James, did not take it seriously. Not to mention the strength gap between the two teams, nor to mention the Raptors' state in two consecutive rounds, just talk about the Cavaliers waiting for the Raptors who had just finished their 14th game in the playoffs in Cleveland, which is also an absolute physical advantage.

The first commentator of the Western Conference Finals was the TNT team, and the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals was the ESPN. Former Warriors head coach Mark Jackson and former Rockets head coach Van Gundy Jr. became today's commentator partners, and among them, the third player Rachel was inserted.

Rachel has always been famous as a 2k game anchor. At the same time, she also works as a reporter at espn, but she is more involved in interview work. This time, espn actually made her a game commentator, and more importantly, it is a game like the Eastern Conference Finals.

It is obvious that as TNT is becoming more and more popular, ESPN also wants to make some changes. In the past, ESPN made some famous head coaches or some very famous commentators in the league, but TNT's commentators were all previous historical players, Kevin McHale, Reggie Miller, Chris Weber, Isaiah Thomas, all of which are famous historical superstars.

Especially after O'Neal and Barkley partnered, these two live-fire superstars were good at self-deprecating and immediately became the most popular commentary partner in the league. None of them, and if ESPN wants to make progress, it must make a breakthrough now.

In the previous All-Star Game, the celebrity game first made a little bit of attention, and then, because of the jokes of the Four Heroes of Fengchen, Rachel and Lin Sen had another competition after the All-Star three-point competition. The result of this competition is not important, but what is important is that it made Rachel more famous among the fans. This also made espn make this decision, allowing Rachel to join the commentator seat of the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals.

"Rachel, Lin is your old acquaintance, what? Do you have any expectations for his performance today?" Van Gundy said jokingly. The current commentator does not only need analysis and mercilessness like before, and wishes Lin Sen would be beaten up in this game.

"Oh? It seems that Rachel has done a lot of preliminary work, especially Lin's information. However, this year's Cavaliers' match against the Raptors were a long time ago. Lin's progress speed, Lin now and Lin at that time, can you still treat them as the same person?" Mark Jackson said with a smile.

"Jonas is Lin's most hated center type, and his form has been hot lately. Even Lin now, I still think he will play hard."
