Chapter 1162 71 wins, catching up with myself two years ago

On March 28, the Knicks defeated the Grizzlies at home.

Stoudemire was absent due to injury in this game, but Randolph and Xiaojia created enough trouble for Zuo Li. Zuo Li once shot below 50%.

However, in the second half, the Knicks were full of firepower from the outside. Curry, Klay, and Danny Green hit three-pointers one after another. The Grizzlies had to expand their defense, and then missed inside. The Knicks opened the score 16-0.

98-91, the Knicks won the game by 7 points.

After the game, Randolph praised Zuo Li's performance: "No one is better than him. He is the best player of this era. We tried our best to defend him, but he still scored 37 points. 15

Rebounding, that's who he is, I've known it for a long time, and I hope our two teams have a chance to meet in the playoffs."

Randolph's words are still very convincing. The Grizzlies' inside line is outstanding this season, and Garfield is considered to be the player with the best chance of challenging Zuo Li for the title of Best Defensive Player.

But even the Black and White Bears, who are considered the best interior combination this season, were not able to completely restrict Zuo Li, which shows Zuo Li's ability.

Of course, Zuo Li also responded to Randolph and praised him as one of the top three players in the league at this time.

There's nothing wrong with that. Even Duncan Sr., Dirk, DaGa, and Bosh can't say they can suppress Randolph this season. If not for injuries, the Grizzlies could have done more this season.

Of course, the two people's words were considered to be business bragging. After all, there is no need to say more about their relationship.

So what reporters are more concerned about is the Knicks' next plan. As more and more games are won, the legendary record is mentioned again and again.

"Zuo Li! Are you confident that you can break 72 wins and 10 losses?!"

This is the first question asked by almost all reporters after the game.

At this time, Zuo Li's answer was still: "We'll see and let nature take its course."

Even if he had an idea at this time, Zuo Li didn't dare to say anything. After all, utilitarian milk is not advisable, and poisonous milk itself is a taboo in competitions. Many people in history have been ruined by his own mouth, so keeping a low profile is the best way.

.

As for those outsiders who are not optimistic about others, Zuo Liguan can't do it, so he doesn't care about it. He can only ensure that his own people don't favor him.

Therefore, in the Knicks locker room, he also repeatedly emphasized that he should not answer similar questions from reporters if he could not, and do not give opportunities for poisonous people to take advantage of them. Especially those big players like TNT, it is best not to accept interviews from them!

But then, Zuo Li had no choice but to face this problem!

As the Knicks once again defeated the Hornets at home on March 30, the March games came to an end.

The Knicks once again achieved a record of 16 wins and 1 loss in a single month, and Zuo Li once again won the honor of Eastern Conference Player of the Month from Lao James.

This is also Zuo Li's fourth Best of the Month this season. He has also become the first player in history to win at least four Best of the Month in each season for three consecutive years.

The five seasons have not yet been completed, and Zuo Li has already won the best award for 17 months.

However, compared to the team's record, these are small honors. What everyone cares more about is the results of the last 11 games.

Currently, the Knicks have won 64 of the first 71 games, ranking first in the league with an absolute advantage of 7 games, and are also the first team to reach 60 wins this season. Putting aside the shortened season last season, Zuo Li's career

Achieved 60+ wins in all four years.

However, this number is not safe for the Knicks who want to surpass the Bulls' record. They only have 2 games left with error tolerance.

And their schedule is not friendly. In the last 11 games, they have to face challenges from the Celtics, Pacers, Bulls, Hawks and Heat.

These are all Eastern Conference playoff teams with good strength, and they are definitely not willing to become a stepping stone on the Knicks' record-breaking road.

So the difficulty is evident.

No, the Knicks got off to a bad start in the first game in April. The Bulls, with Rose back in action, defeated the Knicks 96-90 at home, handing the Knicks their eighth defeat.

The reason for the defeat in this game can be seen from the score. The poor touch and the passionate defense of the Bulls team allowed the Knicks to score nearly 90 points.

Rose was very excited after winning. Although he also hoped that Zuo Li could break the record, he is the leader of the Bulls after all, and protecting his team's former honor is what he should do as a leader.

However, after the game, Rose specially comforted Zuo Li:

"It's okay. Just think of it as putting some pressure on you. There's still a chance, right?"

If that's any consolation...

Zuo Li rolled his eyes and ignored Rose. He originally thought that this season might be over again. It was obvious from this game that the Knicks were still inevitably feeling tired.

So Zuo Li suggested starting a rotation of rest, that is to say, not forcing him to break the record.

However, unexpectedly, the rest did not stop the Knicks. Next, they defeated the Hawks without Curry, defeated the Celtics without David Lee, and again with Nash and Lu Wei.

Defeated the Pacers without the most important player on the bench...

In three consecutive tough games, the Knicks actually won them all while taking active breaks!

"A man of great skill is bold!"

The media and professionals were all convinced.

I originally thought the Knicks were showing off, but they turned out to be so strong!

We are the ones keeping it!

Zuo Li: Haha...I am also being conservative.

He didn't expect that there would be a three-game winning streak that was full of gold. Then, it would be impossible if he didn't fight?!

After all, the Heat are the only tough opponent left in the last 7 games!

And they still have one game of error tolerance!

On April 8, the Knicks defeated the Wizards, Zuo Li scored 40 points and 16 rebounds!

On April 10, the Knicks defeated the Bucks with 18 points, Zuo Li scored 44 points and 18 rebounds!

On April 12, the Knicks defeated the Hawks by 14 points, with Zuo Li scoring 40 points and 18 rebounds!

On April 13, the Knicks narrowly defeated the Cavaliers by 2 points in back-to-back away games. Zuo Li scored 41 points and 15 rebounds!

"40+15 in four consecutive games! Zuo Li! He carried the Knicks with his own flesh and blood, an earth-shattering seven-game winning streak, with three games left, 71 wins and 8 losses! Only one game away from the legendary record

!”

"Zuo Li! Super awesome!!!"

…

Amid the exclamations of the whole world, Zuo Li and his Knicks finally reached this stage.

When the Cavaliers were defeated and the number of wins on the big screen became 71, fans all over the world burst out with the most enthusiastic exclamations!

"Finally! Finally! Is this moment finally coming?"

"The great Zuo Li! The great Knicks! In the last two games, let's win him in one go!"

"I'm convinced! Zuo Li, the real emperor, who else? He has 71 wins in two seasons in five seasons in his career!"

…

Every fan is sighing, every fan is excited, and almost everyone feels that this time, the Bulls' record cannot be maintained!

One more win and the Knicks will tie the Bulls' record. Two more wins and the Bulls' record will be forever. At this moment, there shouldn't be any Knicks player who won't work hard!
