Before Irene was born, Ke Yan first received a big gift from the league. Since the Knicks' record was not as good as D'Antoni's, he missed the "Best Coach" award, but unexpectedly won the "Best General Manager" award.

As soon as the news came out, Ke Yan himself was quite surprised. He chose to take up the position of general manager concurrently just to "take over all the power" to avoid other voices in the team. As a result, he did not win the award for his work as a general manager, and this part-time job actually outperformed other professional general managers.

Manager, gained professional recognition.

It's like a screenwriter writes a great script, avoids a stupid director from blindly bringing it in and directs it himself. As a result, he doesn't win "Best Screenplay" but wins "Best Director".

"I am very happy to win a trophy before my daughter is born. I would like to thank the journalists who voted for me on behalf of my daughter. Thank you very much." Ke Yan's acceptance speech was simple and heartwarming, full of happiness, and was also praised by fans.

They described it as "I have never seen Ke Yan so gentle."

After the press conference, all the Knicks players, who had taken a day off, returned to the training facility and began to warm up.

Tomorrow they will go to Cleveland to face the first game of the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Hamblen was still there, constantly preparing information about the Bulls, and analyzed the opponent's offensive and defensive advantages and disadvantages one by one, including the current state of the Cavaliers players, whose three-point shooting was unstable, and whose free throws were poor.

A huge hidden danger, Hamblen has done everything in detail and comprehensively.

Unlike Hornacek, Snyder will leave the team one day in the future and start his own business. Hamblen has a clearer understanding of his own abilities. He knows that his upper limit may be "Pippen in the coaching field."

", to be Keyan's right-hand man to win the championship. So at work, he worked more on more trivial things to share Keyan's pressure.

On the training ground, Ke Yan, who has always been "loose on the outside but tight on the inside", increased the intensity of training and even spoke in training classes.

"After the first round of G3, I announced at the press conference the issue of penalty standards in last year's Eastern Conference Finals. Everyone knows this. What everyone doesn't know is that after my speech, the team's management once

He came to me and hoped that I would be merciful to James." Ke Yan said, and he couldn't help but laugh.

"Haha~" All the players were also happy. Ke Yan's comments about James could be edited into a compilation album.

"But I'm very strange? In order to 'please' James, we can't even strive for victory?" Ke Yan has already saved face for Jimmy White. If his original words are spoken out, it will most likely have a worse impact!

"To put it bluntly, without James, I am still a championship coach. I have built the Hawks from a state of poverty into a championship team. I am also capable of helping you achieve the same achievements as Paul and Joe Johnson, even better than them.

Higher. I have defeated James so many times that I can’t even remember it. Even if he comes to New York, he just comes to defect to us!"

"Keep a normal mind and a calm mind. There is nothing to worry about."

...

Quicken Loans Center in Cleveland.

"Welcome to the NBA 09-10 season, the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Cavaliers vs. the Knicks at home!"

The live DJ gave an exciting shout, followed by deafening shouts and screams from the Cleveland people.

In fact, the team's home color is dark red, so all the fans wore dark red jerseys to cheer for the home team in tonight's game.

Because there have been a lot of "scandals" between the Knicks and James, Cleveland fans are not friendly towards the Knicks. There are a lot of abuses, and some even directly attack Ke Yan's soon-to-be-born daughter. This also makes Ke Yan very angry and determined.

The idea is not to give the people of Cleveland good luck.

Cavaliers starting lineup: Mo Williams, Anthony Parker, James, Jamison, O'Neal Jr.

Knicks starting lineup: Curry, Matthews, Gallinari, Love, O'Neal.

A midfield jump ball, amidst the roar of Cleveland fans, O'Neal counterattacked the Sharks and grabbed the first wave of the ball.

When the Cavaliers attacked, James held the ball past half-court. He did not immediately launch an attack inside, but prepared to pass the ball to Mo Bu.

Curry instantly picked up the ball and wrapped his body around Mo Bu's pass, denying him an easy chance to shoot.

Jamison asked Mo Williams to set up a pick-and-roll, and Love did not choose to switch defenses because Mo had strong shooting ability, but his physical fitness was relatively average. He could only make pull-up jumpers when he got space, and there was little threat of breaking into the penalty area; conversely,

Jamison has a variety of offensive methods. If he switches defense, he can attack Curry at will.

Taking advantage of the time gap when George Hill was in the pick-and-roll, Mo Bu unexpectedly chose two points from the mid-range without passing the ball. Even if Curry couldn't keep up, he still jumped up to defend. The ball was successfully interfered, and the Cavaliers' first wave of offense hit the ground running.

.

Love retreated to the penalty area and protected the rebound. Curry held the ball through half court, and everyone spread the ball and kept an eye on him.

When Love came to the frontcourt, Curry handed the ball to Love, and then he ran around Love without the ball and handed it over. The moment the pass was completed, Love caught half of Mo Bu's body passing the ball, and Curry

He also grabbed half a position, easily passed Jamison, and scored with a throw.

The Cavaliers attack, three players spread out, James and O'Neal Jr. play a pick-and-roll in the middle. This is the simplest and most effective tactic, but it is of little significance, because O'Neal doesn't even follow, he just sticks to the basket and allows James to hit the ball.

Shot from distance.

O'Neal's defense overly underestimated James. At least at the free throw line, James' mid-range shots were accurate.

The Knicks attacked, and Ke Yan made a gesture on the sidelines. After Curry picked and rolled, Jamison was attracted to defend, and he passed the ball from behind to Love who followed up. Jamison turned back to defend, and Love had already cut into the basket.

O'Neal Jr. defended, and Love distributed the ball. O'Neal caught the ball from the left baseline, took a dribble, went around to the basket, turned over and dunked.

The Cavaliers' offense was still initiated by James. He passed the ball and made a 70-degree jumper from the left side and hit a three-pointer, 4 to 5.

The Knicks attacked, Curry broke through and was double-teamed, and separated from the outside. Gallinari shot a three-pointer from the open space on the left, which missed the basket. Jamison grabbed the rebound. Jamison dribbled directly across the half court and faced the frame.

Suddenly, he failed to score the ball.

In history, Jamison is the saddest "Mr. 20,000 points". Whether he actively seeks to join the Cavaliers or joins the F4 Lakers in 2012, Jamison's original intention is to "hold on" and strive for a championship.

Ring. But as time went on, James left; as time went by, Howard also left. Jamison just passively shouldered the heavy responsibility of scoring at the end of his career, and abruptly "brushed" to 20,000 points.

Looking back, Curry faked a sudden shot from the top of the arc in the penalty area, and made a long-range three-point shot. The shot was made suddenly. Mo Bu was completely unprepared for the pass.

Compared with Wade, who "works alone", James' teammates are obviously better. The Cavaliers management tried their best to recruit the best teammates within their abilities for James, which finally made James no longer need to fight against a team of people on his own.

.

The Cavaliers attacked, and James cooperated with the former "number one power forward in the Eastern Conference." After moving to the fifth position, O'Neal Jr. "moves the tree to death, and the person moves to life", using his own footsteps to trick O'Neal and score a layup.

Although Ke Yan tried his best to "protect" O'Neal this season, it has to be said that the Shark's degradation rate has exceeded his expectations. Unless he can stand up against a weak opponent inside, it is basically a pitfall to be a starter at other times.

A few rounds later, Ke Yan replaced O'Neal with DeAndre Jordan. As a result, an accident occurred in the first round. During a defense, Matthews was pushed away by James, lost his center of gravity and hit DeAndre Jordan's knee.

, directly caused Jordan’s injury!

Knees are the lifeline of athletes. If Jordan really gets a knee injury, Ke Yan will be scolded.

Fortunately, the test results reported by the team doctor were pretty good and Jordan could walk normally. However, for insurance reasons, the team directly asked Jordan to withdraw from the game.

There is no doubt that for the Knicks, Jordan's withdrawal is a big blow. Jordan is the cornerstone of the team's interior defense. On the bench, whether it is Jeffries or Dorsey, they are all inferior to him.

Far from it.

As a last resort, Ke Yan had to arrange for O'Neal to re-enter the battle, dealing with it briefly, and at the same time quickly thinking of countermeasures.

The Shark's mobility has seriously declined, but he still has size, tonnage, and a good defensive position. Facing James, he resolutely squatted under the basket, which was somewhat intimidating.

After the first quarter, the Cavaliers led by 6 points at home 30:24.

In the second quarter of the game, Ke Yan adjusted the rotation. Curry continued to play, leading Holiday, Matthews, Tracy McGrady, and Jeffries to launch a counterattack.

After "reaching" the second round of the playoffs for the first time in his career, Tracy McGrady was forced to be "reused" and played power forward in the second team. Not only did he have to defend JJ Hickson in the paint, but he also had to take on offensive duties.

Pull the role of "Organization + Space Point".

The Knicks' second lineup features a nimble player. Except for the small forward, all other positions are significantly more mobile than their opponents.

Tracy McGrady held the ball through half the court and cooperated with Curry in a "fake hand-off" to deceive Hickson, who was not paying attention on defense. He easily turned around and hit a mid-range shot from the free throw line. This set of cool moves made the TV

The Chinese fans in front of the stadium chanted "Ye Qing Hui".

On the offensive end, he can occasionally show his talents. On the defensive end, Tracy McGrady can basically only do the task of "top defense". This is why Ke Yan has never reused Tracy McGrady. However, JJ Hickson is a big brush in Ke Yan's eyes.

As expected, Ke Yan did not disappoint. After the pick-and-roll, he resolutely followed the pass. The reaction helped the Knicks "block" James' breakthrough route and forced James to hand the ball to him.

After catching the ball, Hickson turned his back flexibly, followed up with a throw, and hit the ball accurately.

He is the type who has great statistics but makes his teammates uncomfortable on the court.

When the Knicks attacked, Holiday used his speed advantage to break into the penalty area. After containing the defense, he passed the ball to Tracy McGrady outside the three-second zone. Tracy McGrady tried to make a throw, but after James raised his center of gravity, he pushed the ball to the outside horse with one hand.

In the hands of Hughes.

"Beautiful transfer of the ball! Look at Matthews, hit! Although he is playing the power forward position, many of Tracy McGrady's skills are still the actions of an outside player, which makes the Cavaliers' defense have lingering fears!"

The Cavaliers attacked, and the Knicks came up to attack James. The latter took the initiative to pass the ball to Delonte West. West received the ball and rushed to the basket, facing Jeffries' long arm and scoring the ball.

With Jordan gone, Tracy McGrady plays power forward, which is "collapse therapy" for the team. The first is to bet on offense and the success rate of the offense; the second is to see if the 3-and-4 defense after the line attack can block other Cavaliers players.

output.

In the first two rounds, Hickson and West seized opportunities respectively; but in the subsequent games, their accuracy declined.

Both players have their own shortcomings. Hickson plays for "Statistics" and has obvious offensive direction; West's mid- and long-range shooting is unstable and his mental quality is not good. He shows timidity in the game and dare not take outside shots.

The Knicks gradually caught up with the score. Mike Brown reacted quickly. Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately passed Mo Bu and brought Jamison and other main players onto the court.

"After three days of separation, you should look at each other with admiration." This sentence is very appropriate to apply to Mike Brown. After being tortured by Ke Yan for many years, Mike Brown's progress has far exceeded that of his previous life. The appearance of Mo Buchuan and Jamison can just hit the target.

The Knicks' defensive weakness.

Ke Yan also took the "top and bottom" approach to the extreme, replacing Tracy McGrady with Gallinari, pushing Matthews to the power forward position, and bombarding the Cavaliers' defense with faster-paced offense.

After halftime, the Cavaliers led the Knicks by 5 points 62:57.

"Although the Cavaliers are leading now. But if you look at the scores on both sides, this is a high-scoring game, more like a Knicks game. It means that the rhythm is still driven by the Knicks. Logically speaking, the Knicks

There was no one inside, so the Cavaliers had a huge advantage in beating the Knicks inside, ball after ball, but they just couldn't slow down, which depends on the head coach's ability." Zhang Liang analyzed.
