This time, even the loyal Spurs fans had to lower their heads because they knew that time had left deep enough marks on the three old men.

GDP is getting old after all.

In the end, the Warriors easily defeated the Spurs, a veteran and traditional team, by 15 points at home 107:92.

Since then, after the two sets of playoffs in the first round of the Western Conference, the Trail Blazers and Warriors, ranked first and second in the league, all got off to a good start.

Over there in the east.

Aviation Center Stadium.

In the match between the Men's Dragons and Bucks, DeRozan and Lowry seemed to have hit a ghost today. One made 6 of 20 shots, the other 2 of 10. Incidentally, they also affected wing Terrence Ross, who shot 3 of 11.

The three scored 15 points, 7 points and 6 points respectively, and the combined total was just over 30.

In contrast, the Bucks players performed normally. Middleton scored 18 points, Ersen Lyasova scored 15 points, and Antetokounmpo also had 12 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists.

In the end, the Menglong lost to the Bucks, whose record was lower than theirs, 83:91 at home.

Wizards vs. Bulls matchup.

Although Paul Pierce, who played dead during the regular season, scored 20 points and 4 rebounds in the first game, and tried his best to help other young people, he could not stand up to the Wizards' backcourt duo of Bill and Wall, who both went undercover.

No, the behavior of both of them cannot be said to be undercover, it can be said to be undercover behavior.

Beal was better, scoring 16 points on 6-for-23 shooting... although this is relative.

Because as the boss, Wall is much more outrageous.

He made 5 of 18 shots from the field, and completely lost his confidence in the final quarter. The top player of the team did not dare to take a shot, and the final score was fixed at 10 points.

In contrast, Nene, a ten-year veteran who was selected by the Knicks with the No. 7 pick in the first round of the 2002 NBA Draft, worked hard to score 12 points and grab 13 rebounds, which made everyone awe-inspiring.

However, it was a pity that the outstanding performance of the two veterans Pierce and Nene still could not lead to the two sinkholes of Wall and Beal. In the end, the Wizards lost to the Bulls at home 93:103, 10 points.

Bulls here.

Although the Bulls management did not bring in Pau Gasol as in the original history, they chose to take a gamble after the Christmas game.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The right way is to give it a try and turn your bicycle into a motorcycle!

So they brought in Josh Smith, the "former Eagle King" who had just been waived by the Pistons.

Since Josh Smith had two years left with the Pistons and was worth $26 million, after being waived, the Pistons used the extension clause to spread his salary over the next five seasons.

That is to say, in the next five seasons, he will only occupy 5.2 million salary space of the Pistons salary cap each season.

In this way, the Bulls management completely had no worries. When competing with Mosaic under the one-year contract conditions proposed by Mosaic, they gritted their teeth and chose to increase their investment and reached a formal contract with Josh Smith.

At worst, it's just a waste of millions of dollars.

What is unexpected is that Josh Smith, who signed a two-year contract to join the Bulls, was recognized by the coaching staff and became the Bulls power forward after only 5 substitute games.

Played 55 games this season, averaging 12 points, 6 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.4 blocks and 0.9 steals per game.

The owner of the Bulls uniform, who signed this versatile warrior with a two-year special contract worth less than 5 million, couldn't help but shout:

Ouch, it smells so good!

In this time and space, the inside combination of Noah and Smith is naturally inferior to the inside offensive ability of the combination of Noah and his wife in the original time and space; but the Bulls' defensive ability, when Jiba, Smith and Noah are on the court at the same time, is enough to support the Bulls in one fell swoop.

Ranked among the league's top defensive teams.

In fact, as long as Josh Smith focuses on the defensive end, and then reduces his poor shot selection and inexplicable fanaticism for long shots, this guy's ability is definitely worth a contract with an annual salary of tens of millions.

It’s a pity that you have to do it yourself!

In the end, with the strong defensive deterrent of Smith and Noah, a defensive elite Jimmy Butler on the wing, and the former MVP Rose who has not completely degenerated into a role player, the Bulls suppressed the Wizards throughout the game.

There is no suspense either.

Compared with the Western Conference, the trend of the first round of the playoffs in the Eastern Conference is obviously the opposite.

In the two games in the Western Conference, the upper side suppressed the lower side, which is normal performance; in the two Eastern Conference games, the lower side defeated the upper side, which is not normal.
