Win 1 point, win 9 points, the most helpless team in the playoffs! You can t twist your arms, you should accept reality

This season, the NBA has entered the finals, and the two youth teams of the Thunder and the Pacers have reached the end. However, the difference is that the Thunder has become a popular team recognized by the league and the media, while the Pacers have become the lower-dog and are not favored at all. An intriguing data. When the Pacers were still leading 2-1 when the first three games of the finals were finished, the US media "BR" gave the Thunder's chance of winning the championship still more than 78%. You should know that the team that won 2-1 in the finals in NBA history has a probability of winning the championship of 81%. Four words describe it: overturning Tiangang! Of course, from the perspective of regular season performance, the Thunder completely crushed the Pacers; from the top limit of the team's core leadership, Alexander's playoff data is obviously better, and he was elected as the MVP this season and was crowned the No. 1 player in the league.

In terms of team talent, the Pacers cannot compete with the Thunder. The Thunder's lineup around Alexander + Holmegren is basically a lottery show, and it has indeed reached the stage of fruition. But it is also undeniable that under the protection of the league and the referees, the Thunder, especially Alexander, have become the public enemy of the league. From Bay Area media to New York reporters, from Timberwolves with team reporters to Yahoo column reporters, they are criticizing the referees for favoritism towards the Thunder. When the Thunder fell behind 1-2 in the score, the league even showed off its killer weapon Foster as the referee. This year's playoffs, the Pacers never won the game called by Foster and the Thunder never lost! There is a question worth thinking about. If the finals want to be more intense, the league will definitely help the weak.

Who is the weakest in the finals? In the first four games of the finals, the Pacers were wronged + helpless. In the finals G1, with Halliburton's buzzer-beating victory, the Pacers took away a victory from the Thunder's home court. By the time of the G2 battle, the referee did not hide his "love" for the Thunder and called out various fouls for the Pacers. Just like the Thunder used to fight against the Nuggets, the Thunder opponents no longer dared to make moves easily, even if it was a basic confrontation! By G3, the Thunder played two good goals in the first three quarters. However, in the fourth quarter, when Matherine and Halliburton broke out, Alexander, who had no free throws away, disappeared in the last quarter! In the end, the Pacers won 9 points! Suddenly, he found that Alexander without a whistle still couldn't do it, so Foster changed his strategy in G4.

The first three quarters were given Jewish + Homgren + Caruso's free throw opportunities until the fourth quarter, when Alexander's free throw manufacturing machine was launched and the Pacers lost 7 points. There must be many fans questioning: The Pacers played badly in the last 3 minutes of the fourth quarter, especially Matherine lost three of four free throws, which was too bad for morale. But what you are ignoring is that Alexander played two singles in the last two times, one walking + two elbow pushing people, Foster was just under his nose and ignored them! Pacers face two fire pits: if Alexander is allowed to charge and not match the corresponding confrontation, Alexander will easily score, after all, he has the ability to score in singles; once he applies a little confrontation, just like playing against the Timberwolves, Alexander's exaggerated actions will still win a free throw opportunity.

How can I fight this? Alexander relies on free throws and lacks the ability to support and organize, which is not the key to changing the finals' winning and losing balance. Any team has shortcomings, and there are no absolutely perfect stars. But it is obvious that the punishment and care Alexander received is something that his opponent's core will never get! To make a simple comparison, Halliburton only had three free throws in the first four games of the finals. It can be said that he lacked strong attack ability, but this is too few! In addition, in three of the four games, Dortmund elbowed Halliburton. It was supposed to be malicious fouls, and the referee didn't swear once! In the first four games of Caruso's finals, there were 10 steals in total. Not to mention the first three games, there were 5 steals in G4 in one game, and at least three fouls by the thug. Slow motion is not a lie!

The walker is very aggrieved! The Thunder is obviously the stronger side, why does the league still favor the Thunder? That can only show one problem. The Pacers team has already scared the league. The Thunder did not take any advantage from the Pacers in the first four games. This is based on 8-for-5. Alexander has an absolutely solid cylinder, and the entire Thunder team has its own immune foul attributes! Of course, the Pacers have their own shortcomings and do not have absolute offensive strengths. Sika is one, but they often can't touch the ball in the fourth quarter. They just play too equally and lack altitude limit. What the Pacers got was that the referee did not brag about the violations several times, but what they lost was a fair competition opportunity.

The arm cannot twist the thigh! The league is determined to support Alexander this season. James, Durant, and Curry are really old. Jokic, Tatum, and Edwards are leading the team. Every family has difficult scriptures to recite, and Alexander is indeed the most suitable. It also represents the small club and the mass base at the bottom of the league, just like the original Bucks. In my opinion, the Pacers should surrender as soon as possible, you really can't compete with the alliance. If the league wants to promote Alexander, then continue to support it, and the bubble will eventually burst. Obviously, the Thunder are not worthy of the championship this season! If virtue is not worthy of one's position, there will be disasters; if talent is not worthy of responsibility, there will be burdens.
