Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

On May 25, it started to rain lightly in New York. The rain started in the early morning and continued until the evening. The water mist covered Madison under the night with a gray veil. Against the backdrop of the neon lights, it still looked beautiful.

With a hint of fantasy and mystery.

However, unlike the hurried pedestrians on the streets on rainy nights in the past, the flow of people in New York tonight is still gathering around this legendary arena. Umbrellas, cloaks, raincoats... colorfully gathered into a sea of ​​people.

Needless to say, the New York Knicks will play again tonight.

However, unlike the hustle and bustle of the past, tonight, the atmosphere in the crowd was a little quiet, even a little solemn.

Not only because of the unexpected rain, but also because of the importance of tonight's game.

Tianwang Mountain, see Tianwang Mountain again!

In the NBA best-of-seven playoffs, the outcome of the Battle of Tianwangshan will greatly affect the outcome of the series. This is a key battle related to the match point. No team can afford to lose the game. In the NBA season

In the history of the playoffs, the team that wins Tianwangshan has a promotion probability of as high as 82%.

The Western Conference Finals that took the lead last night also allowed people to see the cruelty of Tianwang Mountain. Even at the last second of the game, before the whistle blows, anything can happen, and when you feel that you have a chance to win, it is often...

The most dangerous time.

New York fans naturally hope that the Knicks can successfully win at home, but they also have to bear the consequences of failure in their hearts.

If this game is lost, the Knicks will definitely face a dilemma full of debuffs, which is something that Knicks supporters do not want to see anyway.

As the regular season champion this season, one of the best teams in the playoffs so far, and having experienced an incredible victory, Knicks fans should have been full of confidence.

However, as their opponent, the Celtics have never been an easy team to deal with.

As the team with the most championships in NBA history, the Celtics are famous for their tenacity and have staged comebacks in the playoffs many times. As representatives of Boston, the blood of workers seems to be integrated into their souls.

That's a built-in team spirit.

Tough, unwilling to admit defeat, durable and unbeatable are their labels.

Historically, I won’t mention how they tortured the Lakers in several finals and made stars like Baylor, Chamberlain, and West miserable and retired without any honors. I will only mention the recent past.

In the 2008 playoffs when the Celtics won the most recent championship in their history, the Celtics twice staged the drama of winning Tianwangshan and then winning the championship.

In the first round of the 2008 playoffs against the Hawks, they won Tianwangshan and avoided the Black Eight Miracle. The Big Three led the team to a 99-65 victory over the Hawks in the tiebreaker, showing people their determination to compete for the championship.

; And in the Eastern Conference semifinals that year, the Celtics once again staged such a drama, winning all their home games against the Cavaliers, and finally defeated the Cavaliers 97-92 in the tiebreaker to advance.

The most powerful thing is of course the Celtics' Tianwangshan winning rate of 82.8%. It has been proven countless times in history that the Celtics are better at beating Tianwangshan. They are used to entering the next game with a lead.

Coupled with ESPN's pre-game predictions, two-thirds of the people were optimistic about the Celtics' victory. Of the 24 commentators and reporters, only 8 were optimistic that the Knicks could win at home.

Therefore, many fans in Madison Square Garden before the game were not very optimistic.

But Zuo Li said...

"It's stable this time!"

"You dare to believe ESPN's poisonous milk? I can only say that your hearts are really too big. ESPN's predictions are not very accurate. Moreover, are those guys experts? They are not just clowns who are just trying to gain popularity.

What?"

Zuo Li has never been interested in ESPN's predictions. The commentary is okay, but other than the commentary, everything else is pure clowns, including the so-called historical rankings. As for pre-game predictions, haha, they can

If the prediction is accurate, it will be a fart.

As for the Celtics' winning rate in Tianwangshan, that is of course a fact. The Celtics are indeed very good at playing G5 after 2-2. In history, they have only lost 4 times out of 40 times. This winning rate is really exaggerated.

However, starting in 2009, to be precise, when Rivers came to the Celtics, this style began to go astray.

Before Zuo Li crossed over, Green Army fans begged G5 Tianwangshan not to win, because the Magic led 3-2 in the 2009 Eastern Conference semifinals but were overturned by Howard, the 2010 Finals led the Lakers 3-2 and were overturned by Kobe, and the 2012 3-

Leading the Heat by 2 and being overturned by James, but what Zuo Li didn't know was that in 2018, they were leading the Cavaliers 3-2, and they were overturned again...

It can only be said that a buff like Rivers's own comeback attribute is really unbelievable and directly poisons the Celtics' DNA.

So if fans are sitting in front of the TV and praying that the Celtics can win away from home, it seems that they should ask them to lose to see if this curse can be broken.

Haha, just kidding.

History is just history. No matter how coincidental it is, no one will give up the victory in front of them. Zuo Li is not prepared to deliberately lose at home just because he wants to try this buff. Tonight, he comes with the belief that he will win!

Although Zuo Li only played for two seasons, he is no stranger to Tianwangshan. In his previous life, he also experienced the baptism of Tianwangshan many times. In this life, he also played against Tianwangshan with the Lakers, Celtics, and Magic, winning 2 times.

The 1-loss record proves that Zuo Li's ability to withstand pressure is still very good.

And tonight, everyone also understands that in the battle of Tianwang Mountain, there is no room for any mistakes, and we must try our best to win the game.

And without too much mobilization, these Knicks players are full of desire to win the game, and they are not lacking in confidence now. Now that they have reached the Eastern Conference Finals, one step forward is the finals stage that countless people dream of. The players

Of course, no mobilization is needed. Reaching the finals is of great significance to the players in all aspects.

At the beginning, the management injected maximum vitality into the Knicks. The carefully prepared VCR made the fans scream in surprise. After the exciting appearance, the Knicks also put in a different starting lineup.

Bellinelli, who had started every game before, was replaced by Danny Green, playing double small forward with Chandler. This is what D'Antoni prepared for the Celtics' excellent perimeter.

However, Barkley still has doubts about Danny Green. After all, the rookie Danny Green did not perform very well before. He feels that it is a bit risky to send him as a starter at this time.

But on the first ball of the game, Barkley had nothing to say, because when he jumped the ball left, Danny Green and Pierce had their arms wrapped around each other, and they both fell to the ground!

As the commentator screamed, the two refused to give in to each other on the ground, and then fell down again!

"This is war..."
