Exited 1-4 in an upset! Becoming the biggest pseudo-strong team in the NBA, getting farther and farther away from the championship, the four giants should be disbanded

In this year's NBA playoffs, many teams performed worse than expected. The worst-scoring one was undoubtedly the Lakers. They were eliminated by the following in the first round and had almost no strength to fight back. The Lakers' lineup's ability to fight hard is indeed poor. The core duo of James and Doncic is full of ball quotations, but the old one is slow. The strength of the third-door Reeves also revealed their true colors as soon as they started. The Lakers' inside shortcomings are too serious, and there is no qualified starting center. It is also expected that they will not go far in the playoffs. The Celtics' performance this year is also disappointing. As the defending champion, they have only stopped in the second round. To be honest, the dominance of the Celtics is indeed not as good as last year. Even if Tatum is not injured, it will be difficult for them to compete for the championship again. The ability of the second-in-commander Brown seems to have reached the upper limit. Former All-Star players such as Pope and Holiday have also suffered a tragic defeat. If the Celtics do not make a lineup change, they will face the risk of salary explosion next season. Unfortunately, the Celtics failed to open their dynasty. Of course, this year's playoffs, the most disappointing team with the biggest gap should be the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cavaliers are as fierce as a tiger in the regular season, with a high winning rate of 64 wins and 18 losses, and have always ranked first in the Eastern Conference. Their offensive firepower is extremely amazing, with an average of 121.9 points and an offensive efficiency of 121.9, both ranked first in the league. The shooting percentages of both events are also among the top two in the league. There are also many players selected for the All-Star lineup in the lineup, including before the trade deadline, the Cavaliers also recruited DeAndre Hunter, one of the best sixth candidates. Before joining the Cavaliers, Hunter averaged 19 points and 4 rebounds per game with the Hawks this season. During the regular season, the Cavaliers also had a very scary point in that they created super long winning streaks many times. At the beginning of the season, they broke the team's history record with a 15-game winning streak, and scored another 12 consecutive wins + 16 consecutive wins in the middle of the season, and their condition was unstoppable. Continuing the regular season state, the Cavaliers will definitely have a chance to compete for the championship this year. However, the pace of the playoffs has become faster and the confrontation has strengthened, and the Cavaliers will eventually be revealed. They were swept by the Dark Horse Pacers 1-4 gentlemen in the second round. In this way, their highlights of the regular season data and results have also become the largest pseudo-strong team in the NBA this year. The hard strength of several All-Star players in the starting lineup has been overestimated. To be honest, Mitchell is still very good, averaging 29.6 points, 4.7 rebounds and 3.9 assists in the playoffs this year.

At the same time, Mitchell also scored 48 points in the second round of the second round, which is also the highest single-game scoring record in this year's playoffs. Mitchell's scoring ability in the playoffs and his performance at critical moments has always been unnecessary. However, as the boss of the team, he still has some flaws, which are mainly reflected in his physical talent. His height is indeed too short, making his defensive ability relatively average. In addition, Mitchell is more like a pure scorer, and he will be slightly worse in organizing and driving teammates to score. This is why, even though Mitchell has outstanding personal data in the playoffs, he has never played in the division final. Of course, the Cavaliers' biggest problem is not Mitchell, but the other core players, Garland, Mobley, and Allen's performance this year's playoffs are all disappointing. In particular, Garland averaged 21 points per game in the regular season and fell to 18 points by the playoffs. In the series against the Pacers, Garland averaged only 14 points and 4 turnovers per game, with a shooting percentage of 34.2%, and 16.7% of three-pointers, and a terrible efficiency. Like Mitchell, Garland is not tall, and he is thinner than Mitchell and has limited core strength, so his efficiency often declines seriously in the playoffs. In fact, there is another player in the league that is very similar to Garland. Dangelo Russell, who used to play for the Lakers, also has limited physical talent and played well in the regular season, but the playoffs are at a disaster level. He has neither static talent nor athletic ability. The limit of such players is too low. Therefore, Garland has also become the primary target of the Cavaliers' transactions this summer offseason.

Draftstack reporter Ary said that in the exchanges with the entire league, a team was repeatedly mentioned by team executives, agents and people from all walks of life in the league, believing that it might become a catalyst in the trading market, and that is the Cavaliers. Not only Garland, but Allen has limited abilities and is likely to be traded. The key is that Mobley's rookie bonus is about to end. His five-year, $224 million contract will take effect soon. The Cavaliers need to leave some space to ensure that their main players can stay in office for a long time. Now that the Cavaliers's Champions window is approaching, a difficult decision is coming. Will they keep their core lineup and pay luxury taxes, or will they cut costs? However, the All-Star Big Four probably still has to part. Garland and Allen have to go at least one of them so that they have the chance to go further in the playoffs.
