Blake Griffin is in doubt to play the second game after injury in the first game.
Griffin, who has averaged 24.5 points (FG 46.2%) and 7.5 rebounds (5.4 assists) in 75 regular games in the season, he has averaged 70 games in regular league and has been in the playoffs for Detroit Pistons. Griffin has been the most impressive player in recent years, with Griffin's prospect of winning the All-NBA team in the first place. ( Griffin has no history of selecting an all-NBA team since joining the NBA third team in 2015)
Griffin's first injury may have been foreseen. Already Griffin repeated his colon and trips with a left knee injury from the last minute of the regular season. Griffin's second appearance on the 17th April is uncertain. Griffin is likely to miss the entire series. Detroit has already won the first game on the 15th at the Fifa Forum.
Detroit will find it harder and harder to find a clue to perform well if Griffin misses second game in an unfavorable situation.
In addition, the Boston Celtics and the Houston Rockets, who have won their first game, challenge their home win in the series. The Boston Celtics are the first team to win the first game of the season with kyrie Irving 20-point (FG 35.3%) 5 rebounds 7 assists to win the Indiana 84-74.
Houston also threw a three-point shot with 15 (3P, 36.6 percent) in the first game, defeating Utah Jazz defensively and winning the game 122-90 With James Harden on the wingside, PJ Tucker and Eric Gordon.
Utah, who made many changes against Houston in the game, except for Donovan Mitchell The injured players are expected to be out of the game as well, since the deficiencies are lacking.
