The results of the first day of the playoffs were undoubtedly shocking, with all the teams with lower rankings winning in four games.

If one or two games is said to be accidental, but all four games are like this, it is definitely not explained by chance.

As it turns out, the playoffs and the regular season are two completely different battlefields. Teams that rank higher in the regular season only gain home advantage in the playoffs. Apart from this, it does not represent anything else.

Those high-ranking teams that thought they must have been stable all paid the price for this.

Under this surprising result on the first day, people were even more looking forward to the performance of 74 defeats the Grizzlies.

Can they continue to kill all the players in the playoffs? Or will they be upset like the four teams yesterday. No matter which result, it will attract countless fans to watch the game!

The Grizzlies' attractiveness now is like boxing champion Mayweather, and every game he has attracted much attention. But this does not mean that everyone who watches his game wants him to win.

Watching the Grizzlies lose is also a fun place for many people.

Bill Simmons emphasized the strength of the Mavericks before the game started. "They are definitely not easy to mess with. The competition in the Western Conference this year is very fierce. Therefore, although the Mavericks did not rise to eighth place in the West until the last day of the regular season, they are by no means weak teams in the traditional sense of playoffs."

"The Mavericks have won 50 wins this season. In the past few seasons, it is definitely the fifth and sixth level of the West. Although Nowitzki and others are old, they still show good shape. Moreover, many people may have forgotten that the Mavericks are the only team in the season that has defeated the Grizzlies twice in addition to the Thunder! In addition to the last game of the regular season, the Mavericks also won the Grizzlies once in early February."

Simmons once again sang against the Grizzlies before the game started, but this time, he obviously learned a lot of lessons.

He only explained the facts without adding too much fuel to the fire, nor did he black Link too much. It seems that after repeated failures this season, Simmons also knew the outcome of the opposition to Link.

He doesn't want to be slapped in the face again and again by Link, unless he waits for a turnaround!

The Mavericks have never been so popular since winning the championship in 2011. Just because they became opponents of the Grizzlies, they instantly gained unprecedented attention.

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban naturally would not miss this kind of eye-catching opportunity. Before the game started, Cuban showed great confidence when interviewed by reporters.

"I know, the Grizzlies have an incredible 74 wins this season. They have done a great job and done perfectly all year. The only mistake they made is to get the Dallas Mavericks into the playoffs. Soon, they will find out how outrageous they are."

Cuban has always been a big mouth and is famous for often squirting at referees. But in addition to referees, Cuban never shows mercy to his opponents.

Last month, he also publicly stated in an interview that "I hope the Lakers will continue to be so bad."

Cuban is very nice to his players and employees, but he is not that kind to his opponent.

At 7 p.m. on the 20th, an hour before the game began. Players from both sides appeared in the Federal Express Arena to start warming up for their first step in the playoff journey.

People thought the Grizzlies would be in a particularly relaxed state today, but when warming up, everyone on the Grizzlies were meticulous. The warm-up was carried out very systematically and seriously.

The fans were a little surprised. The Grizzlies have won 74 wins. They are the best team in the regular season in NBA history, no doubt about it!

But their attitude was as if the Grizzlies were the eighth highest in the West.

"It seems Mark Cuban is right, the Grizzlies seem to be a little nervous. Yesterday, four teams with higher rankings all lost in the game. Today, the Grizzlies have significantly increased their vigilance."

On the commentary stage, .t's three live treasures are ready. As the most highly-anticipated team, .t naturally sent their most popular commentary team to explain the Grizzlies' game.

On the court, some reporters also found Link and asked questions about Link and Cuban.

But Link, who has always been slutty, refused the interview this time. He shook his head at the reporter and immediately returned to the warm-up.

People were expecting a beautiful verbal battle between Link and Cuban, but this expectation has now completely failed.

The whole grizzly bear gives people a very tight feeling.

Everything seemed to be back in 2011, back to the scene of the Western Conference Finals. As a challenger, the Grizzlies were carefully preparing for the game.

But this is just the first round of the playoffs, not the Western Conference Finals.

Even Cuban was surprised. He had already prepared several arguments to snatch the Link back and forth, but he didn't expect the Grizzlies to be really cautious.

Could it be that they are really scared?

The Grizzlies' performance before the game has made people imagine. Every team has a nemesis. Maybe this nemesis with 74-win Grizzlies is the Dallas Mavericks?

Finally, at 8 o'clock in the evening, the referee ended the fans' painful waiting.

He threw the basketball high, and the arms of Haitian veteran center Dalemport and Gasol were intertwined.

On the Mavericks, the starting lineup is really old. Starting center Delham Porter will turn 33 in half a month, starting power forward Nowitzki is 36 years old. Small forward "hacker" Marion is 36 years old, point guard Jose Calderon is 33 years old. The youngest Monta Ellis is 29 years old.

In terms of the age of the starting lineup, the Mavericks are actually older than the Spurs!

Always have the disadvantage of the Mavericks, but it is their advantage.

All of them have rich experience in major competitions. Dalemport played four playoffs this year, and Monta Ellis was even a participant in the Warriors' Black Eight Mavericks back then. Needless to say, their experience in 2011 is a wealth that cannot be bought with money.

After the game started, the Grizzlies competed for the first attack, and the Mavericks began to retreat very steadily. Playing the playoffs was as normal as eating and sleeping for those guys.

After halftime, Conley took the ball, Iguodala came out to catch the ball and then broke through with the cover.

Sure enough, Nowitzki immediately made up for defense, and he did not allow Iguodala to easily break through Elis.

Ellis' physique is definitely unable to withstand Iguodala, so the Mavericks have long dealt with this.

Don't forget that in addition to players, the Mavericks' head coach Rick Carlisle is also a coach who has always been underestimated. His control over the game and the formulation of game plans are definitely the top presence in the league. Apart from his slightly weak on-the-spot command, Carlisle has almost no shortcomings, both offense and defense.

If I had not prepared in advance, Iguodala would definitely be caught off guard by this situation. After all, in the regular season, Iguodala would definitely not be able to enjoy double-team treatment.

A player who has never been double-teamed suddenly faces a tough double-team and will definitely be a little stunned.

But Iguodala did not. The moment he came up with Nowitzki's double-team, he calmly punched the basketball through the crack and pushed Randolph into the crack!

For this possible situation, the Grizzlies have practiced countless times in the past two days! Iguodala doesn’t need to think too much, but you will know what to do next.

After Randolph got the basketball, Dalemport rushed forward. He was a fat man who could score 19 points in the Heat's single quarter. It would be a heavy price to let him go.

Randolph was not in a hurry to shoot or deal with the ball. Instead, he passed the ball behind his back like an old man who went to the court to exercise.

Link got rid of Marion like lightning and cut it up. After receiving the basketball, he took two steps and directly hit the basket!

Marion had just been tangled with Link on the outside for a long time, and I have to admit that Marion's defensive skills are very good. In such intensity as the playoffs, it is not easy for Link to get rid of Marion's entanglement.

But Marion's athletic ability has always been severely degraded. When Link flashed out of the space, Marion had no chance to catch up with him.

These two excellent passes completely cut the Mavericks' defense. Carlisle couldn't help clenching his fists. He could see that the Grizzlies were prepared!

They weren't complacent about the 74 wins in the regular season, and the guys knew clearly what they wanted!

Dallas people think they will face a slack, arrogant, and full of loopholes in defending champions. But the fact is exactly the opposite!

After receiving the basketball, Link kicked it violently, and rushed into the air like a helicopter!

Marion, Dalemport and Nowitzki could only look up and they could not work in the air now.

"boom!"

Link waved his left arm hard and dunked the basketball into the frame! As soon as the playoffs began, Link gave the Grizzlies a good start with a one-handed slap.

"With a beautiful offense, the Grizzlies were calm in the face of danger and patiently found a scoring opportunity! Indeed, yesterday, four teams with higher rankings were counterattacked. But don't forget that the Memphis Grizzlies are unique! They are different from all other teams, and the experiences of other teams may not necessarily happen to them!"

Hubby Brown was really worried about this game when he saw Link being so serious at first. But now, after the Grizzlies played such a wonderful attack, Hubby Brown was relieved.

The Grizzlies are so serious before the game, not because they are afraid of losing, but because they are afraid of not winning beautifully!

After scoring the goal, Link roared at the stands. He just wanted to destroy the Mavericks now, rather than having any painless verbal battle with Cuban.

Trash talk? There will be some, but that's after the Grizzlies killed the Mavericks cleanly.
Chapter completed!
