Guard With a Knife
Three hundred and five: [The last game to decide the outcome]
Under the leadership of Doug, all Knicks players stopped all interviews with reporters. Although the entire sports circle was criticizing them at this time, in fact they had no voice, and they did not comment at all.
And the Knicks club did not make any statement, as if this matter did not exist.
This undoubtedly made the media lively.
Their criticism came in waves.
When the entire Miami Heat arrived in New York City, that question was asked of just about every important person down to the head coach.
When these reporters asked questions, they consciously guided Snoopy in the direction of framing Snoopy. They hoped to hear some "evidence" from the Heat. It would be better if they could say 'I've seen Snoopy as an unprofessional player'.
However, they didn't get what they wanted.
"In fact, such networking activities can't explain anything? Professional sports players also need to relax properly, especially when the playoffs are approaching." Spoelstra told reporters seriously: "Actually, I also Saw those videos. Nothing out of the ordinary. Any high school reunion in America would have been busier than this one. That doesn't mean anything." \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e
At the same time, when the reporter asked him about his prediction for this game. Spoelstra revealed a news that surprised the reporters: "Tonight we will rest some of the main players, you know. The playoffs are coming, we need to give veterans and main players better physical reserves .”
"Of course, we will strive to win on this basis!"
Spoelstra's last sentence seemed to reporters to be complete nonsense.
Although it is said that teams that have already locked their playoff rankings usually take some rotations in the last few games to store their energy.
However, shouldn't the Heat be extremely jealous when they meet the Knicks?
"Honestly, I'm so angry!! Snoopy is so disgraceful that he throws this kind of party and doesn't call me? He disappoints me, why didn't he ever have this kind of party when he was in Miami?" \u00261t; i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e
Michael Beasley, once Snoopy's greatest rival, faced the camera in a huff.
Dwyane Wade, standing next to him, also added: "Yes, Snoopy has to apologize to us."
When Miami players responded to the incident in such a tongue-in-cheek tone, it caused a lot of trouble for reporters who tried to make use of it.
The game that night was even more disappointing to the critics.
Spoelstra really practiced his rotation policy. He put Dwyane Wade, Jermaine O'Neal, and Haslem on the bench at one time, and let the second pick Michael Bi Slee led a group of substitutes to happily swipe the data.
A crucial game was abruptly turned into a team training mode by them.
In the end, Michael Beasley happily scored 34 points. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e
And Snoopy also happily and easily scored 22 points, 11 rebounds, 15 assists and 2 blocks!
And the Knicks won the final victory with a big score of 132:112.
At the same time, the Chicago Bulls lost to the Charlotte Bobcats!
Such a result even fell below Donny Walsh's eyeballs.
ESPN even played the title: What is the significance of such a victory?
Many basketball experts even began to question whether the Miami Heat colluded with the Knicks to play match-fixing.
However, such doubts have not been accepted by many people. Because the Miami Heat have locked the fifth place in the East, they only have 3 games left at this time, and no matter whether they win or lose, they will not affect the final ranking. So... in this case, a rotation break is a very reasonable arrangement.
As for whether the Knicks were deliberately allowed to win, it's hard to say. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e
After all, Snoopy and the Heat have a close relationship,
Even though Miami traded Doug, the relationship between the two sides did not get very stiff. In addition, the Chicago Bulls directly eliminated the then defending champion Miami Heat in the playoffs in 2007, which led to the parting of the Shark Flash team, and the Miami people somewhat hated it. Of course, the most important thing is... If the Heat advance to the second round, their opponent will be the winner of the eighth and first place.
But these are all speculations, and the reality is that ... the Knicks beat the Miami Heat. Moreover, after the game, some reporters took photos of Doug having dinner with Dwyane Wade, Michael Beasley, and...Scarlett Johansson.
Afterwards, Dwyane Wade claimed: "I think Scarlett is very suitable for Snoopy, and they will definitely become the happiest couple."
Michael Beasley also said that he could tell that Scarlett Johansson liked Snoopy very much because she gave Doug a heart-shaped steak herself. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e
However, Doug himself did not make any response to this. Scarlett Johansson also returned to Los Angeles that night. This makes the gossip signal have to be interrupted here.
Two days later, the Knicks beat the 10th-place Pacers in Indiana.
Although the Pacers have no rotation, but in terms of strength, they are no longer as brave as they used to be, and they are still in the process of rebuilding.
Then, the Knicks went to Atlanta.
At this time, various authoritative predictions from major basketball media believe that...the Atlanta people will definitely give the Knicks a head-on blow.
But sadly... here's the fact: The Hawks also rested.
The Atlantans, who are already firmly ranked fourth in the East, obviously don't want to make a big move. They put Horford, Joe Johnson, and Josh Smith all on the bench. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e
So, in this game, the Knicks won easily again!
The major basketball media are going crazy.
Some sharp basketball experts even began to criticize the rotation policy of various teams. They originally thought that the Knicks would usher in a devil's schedule and miss the playoffs.
But the current situation is that the strong teams that have locked in the playoffs have taken turns to let go all the way, allowing the Knicks to continue to refresh their victories.
Compared with the Bulls who struggled to beat the Milwaukee Bucks, the Knicks are like riding a helicopter and advancing all the way.
After the game against Atlanta, the Orlando Magic, second in the Eastern Conference, also adopted a rotation policy.
Now the Eastern Conference seems to have reached a certain consensus. They seem to be determined to let the Knicks break into the playoffs with the eighth position in the Eastern Conference and let them go to the Boston Celtics! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e
In the past regular season battles, Snoopy has proved that he has a certain probability of overturning the strength of the Boston Celtics.
Therefore, whether it is fifth or fourth in the Eastern Conference, or the Orlando Magic, which aims to win the championship, they are willing to take a rest for this.
After all, when the Chicago Bulls faced the Boston Celtics this season, their record was 0 wins and 4 losses. There was simply no way to make things difficult for Bostonians. And Snoopy once blatantly slapped the Big Three in the face. Based on this situation, of course it is necessary to put someone who can fight in to restrain the strongest Celtics!
However, the Los Angeles Lakers, who have made a comeback this season, obviously have no such concerns. The Lakers players, mainly Kobe Bryant, only have one thing in their heads, and that is to enter the finals as the Western Conference champion. The Walters, they want revenge!
So, when facing the Knicks. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e
Without restraint, they all mobilized and launched the most complete offensive.
However, today's Knicks are obviously not the dough they knead at will. The game was extremely tense from the very first second, and the defense and body collisions of both sides suddenly rose to the playoff level. Almost every attack was a hob-like style of play.
But in the end, the Los Angeles Lakers had the last laugh.
They used the zone defense to force Snoopy to execute jump shots with the ball in the middle distance. As Doug missed two consecutive jump shots, Kobe Bryant seized the opportunity to play two waves of counterattacks and completely sealed the victory in the penultimate minute of the fourth quarter. .
After the game, Kobe Bryant praised Doug: "His progress is extremely rapid. He scored 18 points tonight and shot 45 percent from the field. This is very rare. You know He started the season as a backup center for the Heat. So, if the Rookie of the Year vote was in my hands, I would vote for Snoopy."\u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e
Phil Jackson also praised Doug: "He caught the Lakers' tactical loopholes twice on the court, and he almost killed the game in the third quarter. This kind of keen observation ability is not possessed by Derrick Rose. Yeah, so my answer is the same as Kobe Bryant. I'd vote for Snoopy too."
However, their praise did not affect the media's ridicule of the Knicks. At this time, the sports media has an inexplicable feeling of revenge. They are full of criticism for the Knicks' previous victories, which are no different from those given away by charging phone bills. So after this game, they all expressed their heartfelt speeches: This is the true level of the Knicks.
But...is it really that bad to be able to fight the defending runner-up until the final two minutes? .
At the same time, the Knicks and direct rivals the Chicago Bulls have finished the same ranking, they have achieved a record of 37 wins and 44 losses. But because of more home wins, the Bulls rank higher, and the Knicks are still ninth.
However, the home and away wins and losses are no longer important. Because they are each other's last opponents.
The last regular season game will directly determine the victory of the two teams.
When such news came out, basketball fans were all excited. It hasn't happened in many years that the last game determines the last playoff ticket.
"Honestly speaking, I even doubt that the nba has a script. You see, they were tied in the first 81 games. Moreover, the opponent in the last game was the opponent. There is no more coincidence than this Already," Bill Walton murmured on ESPN's Playoff Prediction show.
"Isn't the most coincidental thing ... Snoopy and Derrick Rose are competing for the best rookie at the same time as the playoffs?" Reggie Miller emphasized: "Anyway, this weekend at the United Center The last regular season game of the 2008-2009 season will become the focus of the collective attention of fans all over the world! Whether it is the victory or defeat of the team or the honor of the individual, it is all here!"
...
