The East is out, the West is the West is the top win Tianwang Mountain, 2 data shows that there is no suspense to the Thunder advance

The Cavaliers, the number one in the East, lost to the Pacers, the number four in the East, 105:114 at home, and were eliminated 1-4 in total.

Since its incredible glory in the early stage of the season, it was regarded as a favorite to win the championship, and was once discussed to break the 73-win record. Now that it has been defeated in the second round of the playoffs, what has the Cavaliers experienced?

The regular season and the playoffs are completely different games. For the Cavaliers, there is still a lot to go through.

As strong as LeBron James, they have to go through countless failures, go to the West to obtain the scriptures, and go to college for four years before they can bring the championship to Cleveland.

The Thunder, the number one in the West, were different. They had a good performance last season, but they suffered a hardship in the second round of the playoffs, just like the Cavaliers this season. They were taught a lesson by the experienced Mavericks. That team has players like Irving and Doncic who have rich experience in the playoffs, and the Thunder paid tuition.

In the second round of this season, the Thunder met the Nuggets who had won the championship and were also experienced. Although they still paid the price because of their youth, they have improved a lot compared to last year.

Today's Western Conference Semi-Final Battle at Kings Mountain, the Thunder reversed the Nuggets in the fourth quarter and won a crucial victory.

Although the Thunder are only leading 3:2, and the next game is the Nuggets' home game, data shows that the team that won the Battle of Tianwang Mountain is more than 80% likely to win the playoffs!

There is another data. Let's take a look at the technical statistics of both sides in today's game. The Nuggets have about 44 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals. Murray has 28 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, but only 3 of the three-pointers are 13 shots, Aaron and Gordon have 13 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists, and 1 of 5 three-pointers.

Apart from them, no one scored in double digits. The two released the first release of Lawn, Porter Jr. 2 points, and 0 of 5 three-pointers. Westbrook, who performed well in the first round, scored only 4 points.

The Thunder were just the opposite. Alexander scored 31 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks. All the other four starters scored in double digits, and substitute Caruso also scored 13 points.

This shows that the Nuggets have strong internal and external dual cores, especially the answer to the teacher, but their helpers performed too poorly. If one more person scored in double digits, they might win the game.

And the Thunder's firepower is more dispersed, and it is difficult for the opponent to defend their overall attack.

Relatively speaking, in a long series, the more you play and the energy exhausted both sides, the teams with more points will be more likely to win the final victory.

I hope the Nuggets will win, but they failed to win the Battle of Tianwang Mountain today. It is very unlikely to pass the Thunder level.

Teams with more points are easier to play real team basketball. Last season's championship Celtics took the advantage because they scored more points. Especially in the finals, they scored a lot of points, while the Mavericks only had two reliable scoring points, Doncic and Irving. Once Irving is restricted and the opponent blocked Doncic's pass line, the Mavericks would be struggling. The semi-finals Pacers vs. Cavaliers in the eastern part of the semifinals also verified this argument - in today's game, the Pacers' starting five players scored in double digits, and the four substitutes scored a total of 21 points.

On the other hand, only Mitchell, Mobley and Garland scored in double digits.

According to the current situation, the Nuggets have to advance to win the sixth game and drag the game into the tiebreak, which is played at the Thunder's home court, and the opponent has more scattered offensive points, so it is very difficult to limit all their scoring points. Moreover, there are many young people in the Thunder and good physical strength. They have experienced the failure of last season and have veteran champions like Caruso joining. It is difficult for the Nuggets to pass the level.
