【Aiden in English】

Playoffs are a time of greatness. The regular season doesn’t matter! At this stage, winners are made, champions are crowned, and legends are formed.

After tons and tons of confusion about the seeding, my team inferred that we were the first seed. How did we know? Well, we may or may not be matched up with the 10-0 team. However, this line-up should not be taken lightly in the quarter-finals, as our opponents were filled with a bunch of three-point shooters.

As the game starter, it appeared as if it would be a blowout. We played amazing defense around the perimeter, not allowing any open looks. Our offense, even without any threes, thrived on fast breaks and lay-ups. The opposing team did not seem to be able to stop our inside game. In addition to points in the paint, there were fouls and free throws. These not only slowed down the pace of the game but also let us take command of the tempo.

At halftime, things were looking extremely bright, as the lead was slowly pushed over twenty points.

In the playoffs, anything is possible. If the Giants can win two Superbowls from being the sixth seed, the Warriors give up a 3-1 lead, and the Patriots come back from a 25-point deficit, then our opponents can still easily turn around

This is basketball, so all it takes is a few threes to put you back in the game. Being up by only twenty over a three-point shooting team is not lead to being comfortable with. And unfortunately, we did.

In a blink of an eye, the fourth quarter gave the opposing team hope. At once, their offense came alive, fueled by our laziness and offensive rebounds. Because of these second chances, they quickly closed the gap to nine points. Worry spread through the bench and our players like a plague, and the beginnings of doubt started to seep in.

Luckily, our point guard thought differently, and he swiftly finished up the game with two easy lay-ups. We ended just like the way we started, with our foot on the gas pedal.

The next game would be the semifinals, which ups the bar much more. We would be playing the dark green team, which somewhat worries me. If there were one team that picked apart our defense, it would be them. A team of three-point shooters, passers, and most big men. However, we have a victory over them in the regular season, but as I said, the regular season doesn’t mean anything in the playoffs.

季後賽可謂籃球的精彩時刻，常規賽並不重要！在這個階段，比賽實施淘汰制，勝者榮登冠軍寶座，傳奇由此誕生。

聯賽排名錯綜複雜，我隊自個推測位居榜首，何以見得？沒錯，咱整個戰績離十戰全勝紀錄相去不遠。然而四分之一決賽陣容切勿掉以輕心，畢竟對方有不少都是三分球投手。

隨着季後賽首輪開戰，我隊大出風頭，採用中距離密集防守，決不留下任何缺口。雖然隊上缺少三分球射手，但我們快攻上籃主動出擊，對方見狀束手無策。除了禁區得分，還有對方犯規和罰球，這麼一來不僅影響到比賽速度，而且還讓我隊掌控場上節奏。

打到半場時，局勢看起來相當明朗，我們慢慢領先對方高達廿多分。

季後賽中任何事情都有可能發生。如果紐約巨人能從第六名種子隊連續拿下兩個超級碗、金州勇士三比一先贏後輸、新英格蘭愛國者在落後廿五分的戰績前反敗為勝，那麼我們的對手也能鹹魚翻身。

籃球比賽就是這樣，只要稍微多得幾個三分就會扭轉乾坤，對於擅長三分球的對手來說，廿多比分差不難拉平，可惜我們沒讓他們得逞。

眨眼工夫，第四節一下子給對方帶來希望，由於我隊拖泥帶水搶不到前場籃板，他們進攻一度打得虎虎生威，因為像這類第二次機會的出現，對方把比分追回到僅有九分之差，焦慮由場內蔓延到場外，我們每位成員頓時感覺兵臨城下，心裡緊張得好像十五個吊桶打水七上八下。

幸好我隊控衛自有獨到見解，兩次輕鬆上籃迅速了結這場比賽，讓我們再現開賽時所向披靡的威風氣勢。

下一場球賽將是半決賽，雙方比分咬得更緊。我隊要與深綠色球隊交鋒，難免令我忐忑不安，在這個節骨眼上唯一能瓦解我們防守的恐怕首推那幫傢伙，他們的三分球手、傳球手、關鍵人物中鋒個個身懷絕技。然而，我們畢竟在常規賽中打敗過他們，但是正如開頭所說，常規賽沒法與季後賽比。
