In the Western District playoffs, the voices on the Internet are generally operating “avoid the sun in the first round of the playoffs”.

At present, it seems that the fourth seed in the Western District is almost the Suns. The Suns have a combination of Kevin Durant, Chris Paul, Devin Booker, and Deandre Ayton. The fifth seed in the Western District will play the Suns in the first round of the playoffs. This is indeed not a good thing.

The 6th, 7th, and 8th seeds in the West may be better than the fifth in the West, because the Suns are more difficult to deal with than the No. 1 Nuggets, No. 2 Grizzlies, and No. 3 Kings. From the perspective of lineup and offensive and defensive integrity, this is very close to the truth.

But how scary the Suns are depends on the opponent. If the Lakers and Warriors advance to the playoffs, these two teams have a chance of winning against the Nuggets, Grizzlies, and Kings. If they play the Suns in the first round, I think the Lakers vs. The Suns, or the Warriors vs. the Suns, are all five or five waves. The Suns are not sure of winning, and it is difficult for the Lakers and Warriors to pass.

Basically, I think the Lakers are not afraid of the Suns, nor are the Warriors, and the Suns are not afraid of the Lakers or the Warriors. This is true. Really strong teams, teams with the strength to compete for the championship, are not picking opponents, and they don’t care about home court advantage. They just want to win key games and important series.

Therefore, discussing sound and sound volume on the Internet is really boring and goes too far. This is the favorite topic of villagers and netizens to join in the fun. At present, the fifth Warriors, sixth Clippers, and seventh Lakers in the Western Conference all have to work hard to win. If they win the fifth seed, they will “kill the Suns” in the first round of the playoffs, and they are hiding.

The Clippers may not be the opponent of the Suns. This is my prediction. It is the Clippers that should be afraid, not the Lakers or Warriors. Another fact: The West is really worried about the Lakers or the Warriors coming up with more teams. American football critics have already begun to discuss who will win the first round of “Lakers vs. Suns”? If it is “Warriors vs. Suns”, which team is more likely to advance.

Former NBA player Channing Fyre, who currently serves as a ball commentator, is more optimistic that the Lakers can beat the Suns.

The Lakers’ confidence lies in defense and lineup integrity. The Lakers have played 15 wins and 6 losses in the last 21 games, with a winning percentage of more than 70%, and their defensive efficiency ranks first in the league. When Anthony Davis and LBron James are healthy, Austin Reaves has star skills and statistics, D’Angelo Russell is another support for the Lakers, plus defensive end Jared Vanderbilt, Hachimura Lei, Troy Brown Jr. The three forwards are defensive The leading player can change defenses infinitely. Dennis Schroder has the best sixth man skills and versatility. The Lakers also have an outside insurance Malik Beasley. In terms of lineup and integrity, the Lakers really have the strength to win the championship.

Who in the West is afraid of the sun? It’s definitely not the Lakers, and it won’t be the Warriors. Other teams should be afraid.

After Kevin Durant joined the Suns, they won all seven games, scoring more points and grasping key shots, which perfectly filled the plight of Chris Paul’s physical fitness and age decline. It is a fact that the Suns are more difficult to target and defend on both offensive and defensive ends.

The Suns are full of lethality and murderous intent. The combination of superstars and recent developments are at the championship level. The only thing that is not perfect for the Suns is the “lineup depth”. .

For the Lakers, it is the best strategy to reach the top six in the Western Conference and directly advance to the playoffs without playing the playoffs. The same is true for the Warriors. As for who is going to play against whom in the first round of the playoffs, it really doesn’t matter that much. Internet discussions and the volume of voices are all “noise” and it doesn’t matter at all. A team that really has the strength to compete for the championship and the capital to win the championship will play everyone the same in the first round. This is the domineering and real king of the championship.

My predictions for this year’s Western Conference playoffs:

1. If the Suns beat the Lakers in the first round, the Lakers will advance five or five times.

2. If the Suns face the Warriors in the first round, five or five waves, I am optimistic that the Warriors will advance.

3. The Lakers will at least reach the Western Conference Finals this year.

4. The Warriors’ defensive matchup will only count after Andrew Wiggins returns to the team.

5. For the top four seeds in the Western Conference, two teams may lose in the first round.
