Minnesota’s four major teams in this year's four playoffs

Recently, the NHL and NBA regular seasons have come to an end. Teams that missed the playoffs began to prepare for the next season, and the teams that have advanced into the playoffs naturally have to fight for championships. Among these teams, the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Wild Team both advanced into the playoffs. In addition to the earlier MLB and NFL, the Twins and Vikings also came from Minnesota in October. In January, they scored their respective league playoffs. This made Minnesota appear for the first time in history. The four major league teams all scored in the playoffs and attracted a lot of attention.



In the United States, or North America, the two major countries, the NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL, as the four professional sports leagues, represent the highest level of sports in football, basketball, baseball and ice hockey, and are well known to sports fans. In the United States, there are 13 cities or regions, and there are teams in these four major leagues (Canada has its own rugby sport, so there is no NFL team). The 13 cities or regions are: New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco Bay Area, Chicago, Dallas, Washington, Philadelphia, Boston, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Denver, Miami, Phoenix, and Detroit. With the exception of Houston and Atlanta without the ice hockey team, the 13 urban areas mentioned above basically covered the most populated areas in the United States. It's not hard to understand that there are many teams with more fans.

Although 13 cities may seem a lot, due to the competitive environment, financial factors, and even luck and chance, teams from the same region can achieve success at the same time (we'll define the playoffs as successful for the time being). Much more. Let's take a look at the following statistics: At what time, these cities have had four teams participating in the playoffs. In addition, it should be noted that football, basketball and ice hockey are all New Year's competitions, and the baseball season takes place in the natural years. To avoid controversy, we take into account both the first and second baseball seasons of the year of the year, but even so, Most of the events that can take place are only happening in two regions. As for which two regions, the latter will be introduced.

This article focuses on the four teams mentioned in the Minnesota region. Minnesota’s ability to do this, as the second-lowest of the 13 areas, seems to be difficult. Among the four teams, the Timberwolves, the most well-known Chinese fans, have never made the playoffs until this season after the 03-04 season star Kevin Garnett won the regular season MVP. Breaking the 13-year playoff drought has really encouraged fans. In baseball, the Shuangcheng team had missed the playoffs for six years before qualifying as a big black horse in 2017. The NFL League of Nations North Zone where the Vikings are located has long been suppressed by the giants Green Bay Packers. In the 21st century, the National League’s Northern Division has also made fewer cuts and missed more. In the 2017 season, the team moved into the new indoor stadium and became the top team again with excellent defense. Unfortunately, he eventually missed the Super Bowl on his own court. In contrast, only the youngest wild team was the most successful. This team, established in the 21st century, has been the NHL playoffs for the sixth consecutive year this year. Before this year, Minnesota’s most brilliant moment was in the 02-03 season when the Wild Team and the Timberwolves made the playoffs at the same time. The Twins City team made the playoffs in both 02 and 03. The Beijing team was temporarily at a low point.

In fact, this year, the four teams that joined the playoffs are not alone in Minnesota. They have made headlines because most of their teams are uncompetitive. This year's achievement of this point is commendable. With the exception of Minnesota, Boston, which is also familiar to everyone, has achieved this. In the NBA, the Celtics still scored second place in the Eastern Conference in the wake of injuries to Gordon Hayward and Kyrie Irving. In the NHL, the Bruins have already topped off in the first game of the playoffs. The MLB's Red Sox is also the winner of the division in 2017, and according to the current situation, they are very hopeful to win the championship for the third time in a row this year. Not to mention the NFL's Patriots, their classic battle with the Philadelphia Eagles on the 52nd Super Bowl in February may now still leave many fans unsure.

In fact, throughout history, Boston is indeed a real sports city. Since the establishment of the NBA and the NHL, the Celtics and the Bruins have been giants, making up the majority of the playoffs, not into the postseason. The match was accidental. In contrast, the more famous Red Sox and the Patriots "dragged." Because the two alliances are more competitive, so compared to the Celtics and the Brown Bear, the Red Sox and the Patriots are both Count the number of playoffs less. In the 21st century, after the Patriots became giants and the Red Sox had also completed its revival, the Boston Four teams had entered the playoffs for years. In general, in the 1985-86, 94-95, 03-04, 07-08, 09-10, 12-13, 16-17 and the current 17-18 season, the four teams entered the playoffs All of them have been implemented in Boston. It may be common for local fans to think about it.

Another city worth mentioning is New York City. Thanks to the number of teams (two baseball teams, two football teams, two basketball teams, and three ice hockey teams), the fourth team has entered the playoffs in New York. It is also very common. With the New Jersey Devils catching the final line of the NHL playoffs, the New York area has had at least one team into the playoffs for 51 consecutive seasons. In contrast, football, which is the fiercest competition, has dragged on. Since ancient times, New York has been in 1968-69, 69-70, 85-86, 97-98, 98-99, 00-01, 01-02, 02-03, 05-06, 06-07, 09-10 and In the 10-11 season, a total of 12 teams in the four major leagues have entered the playoffs. Only a few teams in the basketball and rugby world have failed in recent years. New York’s situation has only diminished.

The "round-up" situation in other cities is much less. The number of teams in the Los Angeles area is also large, but because of the loss of a football team for 20 years. In the 70's and 80's, the Los Angeles team was all-powerful in the four major leagues, but at the same time only five times in the playoffs, not equal to Boston and New York. The glory days of other regions are even fewer.

Now that the NHL playoffs have begun to compete, the NBA playoffs will begin immediately, and fans from Minnesota and Boston may face happy troubles. Boston fans may already be accustomed to it, and Minnesota fans will certainly be very encouraged. Can the Wild Team and the Timberwolves deliver surprise fans in the playoffs? let us wait and see.
