NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 338: Tie-break, final madness

This game has become the absolute hottest topic today.

But the Knicks are not ashamed.

Because they haven't lost the series yet, they are still tied 3-3, but they are forced into the final battle.

Tie-break is always good-looking!

The league officials and many commentators and reporters on the sidelines were all smiling. No matter who of these two teams advanced, they were already extremely popular.

Many people were initially worried that the Knicks were too young and would be swept into the Eastern Conference Finals, especially after they lost the first two games.

To be honest, more than 70% of insiders, including David Stern, prefer the Knicks to enter the Finals.

After all, the NBA is not the NCAA, it is a business league. When a team relies on teamwork to win the championship, the commercial value is actually not enough.

When the Big Three were first formed, they had already been crowned the world's loan champions. How could this story be as good as the Knicks' story about the veterans' immortality and youthful inspirational storm?

Moreover, even Magic, the old club of Warcraft Agent, is silently cheering for the Knicks. Goodbye, the boy has his bow fully drawn and is not afraid of time and wind. Which big shot in the industry who has been with Happy Beast doesn't hope that Warcraft can finally achieve success?

!

And if we make it to the finals, it would be even better if we defeat the Lakers and win the championship.

Again, business alliance.

If a team keeps winning championships, that's not a good look either.

Therefore, if the Lakers win three consecutive championships this year, it will actually be a historic moment for the Lakers themselves, but it will not be a good thing for the league. That's why dynasties are so difficult, because the league will always support other strong teams to rise to the top.

In addition, there is a saying for Warcraft agents to beat the Lakers, revenge! Adidas VS Nike, now there is a super god VS Nike...

Lakers fans have become fixed. Winning the championship will not mean that there will be a new batch of fans. Fans will always have confrontation and topics to watch, such as the yellow-green battle.

If a new king emerges, there will be a new group of teams that support the championship. Whether it is the Heat or the Knicks, it will be better than the Lakers continuing to win the championship.

But this is all a thing for another day. Now Stern will not deliberately manipulate the game. All he can do is make the referee a little more sensible, but not too much.

Today Stern is not saying that the Knicks must lose, but he wants to make the game more exciting.

Because he also feels that the Knicks can win.

Even if he loses this game, he still feels this way.

However, it is obvious that the general managers of both sides were afraid that he would cause trouble. They called him to ask what the league's attitude was. They were too worried that something would happen. When they arrived at the scene, they were very close to David Stern, and they were afraid that there would be some "little move."

CP3 is the eternal god. If the league wants to walk out a team, even the King of Heaven will not be able to stop it.

"Wish you all the best in the tie-break." Therefore, David Stern also expressed his blessing to Max in the end.

"Thank you, it will go well."

…

Jiang Chao also didn't expect that he would come to Miami again a few days later.

After being eliminated in the first round last year, he once again experienced a tiebreaker in Miami.

Wade is still here.

But Beasley next to him was replaced by James, and O'Neal became Bosh.

The memory of death haunts Jiang Chao, but don't let it get to this point again this year.

I have no time to play this time.

Moreover, except for reporters such as Li Shishi who had to follow the news front line, several girls were afraid that their hearts could not bear it, so they did not follow Jiang Chao.

Because now that the season has come, they have completely developed a relationship with the team, and they don't want to say that they hope that the team loses and then Jiang Chao will accompany them wholeheartedly.

There are really many fans whose female votes are like this.

I just want my boyfriend to be with me all day long. Basketball is nothing. I want to end it as soon as possible!

Now that we have come this far.

None of them want to see the Knicks fail here, it's such a pity.

Girls have poor mental endurance. What’s more, if they lose the tiebreaker in the American Airlines Center Arena, which has the loudest decibels, wouldn’t it be a heart attack?

But Li Shishi is much better. She is originally a generous Dongbai girl, and as a news reporter, she has never seen any big storms during her internship. What she needs is emergency management ability!

Scarlett also came directly from the "La La Land" Chicago seminar. She is a long-time Knicks fan. In recent years, she has become accustomed to seeing the Knicks fail at critical moments, so her mentality has long been relaxed.

And she went to see it with expectations. The Knicks haven't made it to the Finals for a long time. As the only Knicks diehard among these girls, she definitely wanted to see it to the end!

Whether she wins or loses, she has to witness it herself.

All right……

In fact, I am very favored. I felt so comfortable with Jiang Chao that night when I came to Miami. We haven’t had a 1V1 mode for a long time, and Jiang Chao also found the feeling he had at the beginning, widowed sister, YYDS!

People watching football also need to relax before the game.

The first person to physically reduce fire still feels the same as before!

…

G7

Game day.

really.

Due to excessive consumption in G6, wire reports said that Wade did not participate in training games, his knees had a certain degree of water accumulation, and his ankles were also severely worn.

This is Wade who only rested for 2 minutes.

James and Bosh didn't rest for a minute.

Although there is no report on their physical condition, it is 100% affected by G7. Too many professional players on both sides have retired and become front office staff. Everyone knows the loss of playing 48 minutes in the playoffs.

The longest playing time for the Knicks was Harden's 38 minutes, which can be said to have some room left.

According to fans, even if the Knicks are really desperate like the Heat, they will not lose in G6.

This may be a smoke bomb given by Riley, but the fact is that Wade did not participate in the joint training, and Haslem also suffered some chest injuries after guarding Howard for six games, but he did not follow the team doctor's diagnosis and treatment.

, I want to talk about it after the tiebreaker.

The future mascot of the Heat should not say it, but he is really tough for the team.

Here, Dr. Carter from the Knicks worked tirelessly all day long to give the players physical therapy in turn to ensure that everyone was in top condition. The Knicks have not had any serious injuries since the playoffs, and this team doctor deserves most of the credit.

The second most important thing is the recruitment of the young coach. He has been restrained from using the two All-Star insiders, especially YAO. As long as Yao Ming is not injured, the Twin Towers will always be a threat.

The ESPN home page banner is:

"The death of James or the ascension of a new king?"

The photo is of Curry and James. There are differences among them. Some people say that it is better to use Harden and James to confront each other, because Harden was the real leg during the Knicks' three-game winning streak.

In the end, the editor-in-chief said that Jiang Chao’s photo was the only option. He was the real leader of the Knicks, and everyone else had to step aside.

Whether Curry or Harden, or George, who was very effective in defending James except for the 40-point game, and Yi Jianlian, who can compete with Bosh in the inside, they were all led by Jiang Chao.

In his second year at the helm of the Knicks, will he take the Knicks to the Finals???

Heat fans were annoyed when Jiang Chao entered the stadium. This boss is here again... not a good thing.

And it's the second row, right behind the players. It gives me a headache just looking at it.

The Knicks have given the league too many surprises in the past two years, and they don't want the magic and madness to reappear at this critical moment.

Riley applied to the league specifically because of Jiang Chao that the boss and fans would not be allowed to enter the coaching bench or even the locker room. The league stated that there would never be a scene like Jiang Chao teaching an elevator kill on the spot.

But you can still enter the locker room, otherwise you would be considered a bad team owner?

As a representative of the super media, Li Shishi wore an orange Knicks hat and stood out among the red clothes and white hats. At home at the American Airlines Center, it seemed extremely difficult to take away such a victory.

Jiang Chao put on a Knicks jersey for the first time, without a number or name, and with a white jersey on the sidelines to help out. Today, he is purely a fan, and he wants to witness the miracle of his home team!

Scarlett is wearing Curry's jersey. She just wears a jersey and plays with it and disappears. It's very tempting.

"Make the impossible possible, come on, Knicks!"

Curry has already put on Curry's second-generation black, blue and orange color matching boots, and when he warmed up, he directly made a big windmill dunk to cheer up.

Even though Curry often fails to dunk in games, in fact, his dunks are quite elegant in the air.

In actual combat, I am just a good person and fun-loving.

"Let's go!"

"Go!!"

"I hope it's the death of James!!!"

Jiang Chao specially prepared earplugs this time, and put two of them on Li Shishi and Scarlett.

They came to watch the game, not to hear the noise.

And before putting it on, I naturally cheered for the visiting Knicks players. Curry's new shoes match the away jersey very well, and have a low-key luxury feeling of Blue Clouds.

The explanation here is a bit murderous and heartbreaking.

When the players were warming up, he deliberately said that Yi Jianlian and YAO will be free agents next year. If the Knicks stop there this season, the Knicks may not be as strong next season.

Because many teams have already announced that they are going to grab Yi Jianlian, a Chinese player whose rookie contract has expired. Everyone in the market has seen it, and the cake must be divided.

Moreover, the contract between the agent and Okur has also expired, and Okur has been named by the Jazz to be taken away next year, so everyone is waiting to see the Knicks joke in the off-season.

David Lee is in contract year 1, and I don’t know if he will opt out of the contract. Anyway, there are a lot of people in the market who want this stocky rebounder.

Once the veterans leave, Howard will almost be a pure rookie with a maximum salary of 5 years.

Therefore, the media's bad-mouthing of the Knicks is really a great psychological tactic, making Knicks fans panic.

Because in fact, Okur and the Knicks are very friendly to each other, and they have not said that they are negotiating contracts now. The agent has not bothered the team management at all. Now is the time to review the records of the players and the team, how can they go there?

affect the future of the team.

For players, one more finals or even a championship resume is much more important than earning a few million more next year.

The media has forgotten something.

No one in the Knicks group has ever won a championship ring!

This desire comes from top to bottom!

"Awesome."

Jiang Chao doesn't mind that all of them know about the contract issues the Knicks will face next season.

Because he doesn't care at all. Even if he makes a comeback now, he still has 10 years of God's perspective. Do you really think I'm out of ammunition?

But it’s nonsense when they say it now.

At this time, all the Knicks generals can hear it. Isn’t this sabotaging the morale of the military???

Before the game, coach Stevens directly shouted to James from afar:

"You scored 40 points on us in the last game. If you can continue to score so many points in this game, we will be convinced!"

Old psychological warfare.

It means that if you continue to fight alone, it will be over. Let’s see if we can do anything to you?

The unified strategy of Jiang Chao and the coaching staff is to start Beverley directly against Wade and put pressure on him. If you are sick and it kills you, aren't you unable to participate in training games?

According to Wade's character, if he wasn't really too tired, he would show his weak side???

Then Curry would be the first substitute, and then Hebei would start, consuming Wade from the beginning of the first quarter.

And under the young coach's advice, George actually started the game. It was regarded as a pseudo-start. It did not allow James to play comfortably from the beginning, which meant that all the offensive firepower from the outside was given to Harden alone, with Huo and Okur inside.

constant.

No double-teaming, if you keep playing alone and score 40 points, I will lose!

It's obvious that they won't let you play smoothly at the beginning, send out a young and energetic defensive lineup, and start from the inside!

It’s enough to have Harden on the outside who can support him!

"Okay, okay, put on your earplugs, the game is about to begin."

During the kisscam here, they even deliberately approached Jiang Chao. Jiang Chao waved his hand directly, "What are you doing in this away game? I want to watch this tiebreaker."

Scarlett put on earplugs. This was obviously to mess with their mentality while on the field. However, when it comes to such a crucial game, they have no intention of playing. They are not here to participate in the kisscam, but to expect the team to win.

.

The anchors from Tianchao, Pickles, Neon, and ESPN are all sitting in the live broadcast booth, and the chatty thief can create a sense of tension.

Especially the Brazilian commentators, who started to talk before they even scored a goal.

The game begins!!

The Knicks' small change did not disrupt the Heat's position. Beverley, like Wade on the Heat, is a very easy target on the defensive end.

So in the beginning they were targeting each other, with Beverley and Wade being the only ones open.

Because their three points are not accurate...

Especially Wade, it was as if someone had lowered his head after that game, and it was really obvious that he had a serious knee problem, and his running and jumping were visibly slower.

The two fought against each other, obviously not expecting to bear an unbearable burden at the beginning.

Just kidding, this is a tiebreaker!

This is not a simple first game of the playoffs. Every goal is crucial. My hands were so nervous at the beginning.

The two teams did not score in the first 2 minutes.

Kidney fighter Mourning said on the commentary desk:

"This is the defensive lineup, it feels like I did in 1997!!"

"It's really fun to watch!! But it's not a good thing for the home team, they are a little tight!"

As a famous player with the Heat, Mourning said that he never had such a bad start in the last century.

"There's too much pressure. Howard was a little stiff today, and his opponents seemed to know how to guard against him."

Haslemo is now under the control of Master Cheho, which makes Howard extremely uncomfortable and feels like he has been unable to exert his strength.

In this situation, the young commander took the lead in changing the formation!!

After guarding George for a few rounds,

Bosh also obviously played too hard in the last game. He couldn't move his feet this time, and his jump shot was blocked by Yi Jianlian.

Bosh, it’s just Xiao Yi Jianlian!

Curry, who came on the bench, got the ball from the defense, caught the ball and threw it long to Harden, who was rushing to the frontcourt. Harden looked back at the moon in three steps, then accelerated in two steps to face Bosh and succeeded in a one-handed dunk!

The iconic one-handed chop with one hand looking back at the moon!!

Harden is a veteran of this trick. He looks at the opponent's route in the air. If you chase him, I'll make a backhand layup.

If you don't catch up, I'll push the ball in!

This is one of the characteristics of Harden's dunks. He likes to look back at the moon and glance behind him. Sometimes his opponents are fooled by him and think someone is following up behind him.

The appearance of Curry and Yi Jianlian officially started the Knicks' counterattack!

There haven't been a few rounds yet.

Harden's long layup was slapped on the backboard by Bosh. James took the ball to the frontcourt and passed the ball to blue-collar center Haslemo in seconds for an easy layup!

In a smooth triangle blocking tactic, Howard stepped back and hit GG!!

This is the top game!

Jiang Chao put on his earplugs and felt the smell of gunpowder in the air, which was tense every moment.

The most exciting thing about the NBA is the ups and downs of the game. There are any possibilities until the last 0.1 seconds of the game.

The two sides battled until 19:19 in the first quarter.

The second quarter became the stage for two key men of the two eras!

Curry scored 14 points in a single quarter and James scored 16 points in a single quarter. It is obvious that he has slowly found his form.

This is the replacement library!!!!

Jiang Chao even thought the young marshal was awesome because he and Curry joined the team at about the same time, so the young marshal was completely able to keep such an offensive master on the bench for 5 minutes!

But once on the stage, it will be really devastating!

Originally, no one was good at three-pointers, but he raised his hand to make three-pointers as soon as he came up.

Originally, the Knicks' transition was not smooth because Beverley and George's passing was mediocre, but after Curry came up, he directly gave Harden a cake. The coordination between himself and Harden was amazing.

This reminded Jiang Chao of the fact that before time travel, the US media selected James as the best clutch player in the 2010s, and Curry and Irving as the best clutch players in the 2020s...

These three people are among the stars with the highest scoring success rate in the last 2 minutes of the game in later generations!

And it’s based on long-term performance over a 10-year period.

But looking at individual years, Thomas was far ahead in one year.

These people are absolute masters of comebacks and key shots.

There have been many great comebacks at critical moments in the history of the NBA. The most impressive ones are the Miller moment and the McGrady moment. Two powerful key players left the most classic comeback game in the history of basketball.

But McGrady and Miller are not among the top key scorers. Although Miller has made 42 key goals in his career, he is still not ranked high in NBA history.

Not to mention Tracy McGrady, who averaged only 4.62 points per game in the fourth quarter of his career, shot only 42.3% from the field, and only 33.1% from three-point range.

Although Jiang Chao knows that many fans have the impression that Irving is particularly cheating, in fact, his key ball ability is not inferior to Durant's.

A game like this is very suitable for Irving to perform.

Irving was the No. 1 pick in 2011. In the past eight seasons, he averaged 22.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.3 steals per game, while shooting 46.2% from the field.

In the fourth quarter, he averaged 5.21 points per game in his career and shot 44.7% from the field.

Curry has averaged 4.62 points per game in the fourth quarter of his career and shot 46.8% from the field.

James averaged 6.32 points per game in the fourth quarter and shot 47.8% from the field. Durant averaged 5.50 points per game and shot 45.5% from the field in the fourth quarter.

The key player around the 2020s is Curry. In the small ball era, Curry was so powerful that he couldn't find an opponent. He was sweeping the entire army! Single defense simply couldn't guard him.

Curry averaged 6.43 points per game in the fourth quarter of his career and shot 41.7% from the field.

If the time is reduced to the 17th and 19th seasons, Curry averaged 8.31 points per game in the fourth quarter and shot 41.1% from the field.

Curry would also be the leading scorer in the fourth quarter ten years later. No player in his generation had Curry's key scoring ability.

And James happens to be the king of the final quarter in this era, but unlike Curry, all of his key goals are basically scored in the paint.

All-out James, all-out James, refers to the last quarter of every key game. The number of James' breakthroughs and fast breaks has soared sharply compared to the first three quarters. It was the same in the last game. Don't you have to rush all out until the critical moment?

When it comes to the king of the final quarter, Curry and James are both considered now. So, let’s give it a try tonight!!!

End of three quarters.

Score 73:73!

All the tactics have been completed and I am extremely anxious.

Even the commentators were sweating on their foreheads. They said they didn’t feel this way when commentating on the Western Conference games. The Eastern Conference was too cruel.

There is even a feeling that a team from the Eastern Conference can win the championship!!

The Lakers are obviously not as strong as last year this year!

But now let’s see who can become king in the Eastern Conference.

The time has come to prove who is the king of the end!

And will Wade still complete the final kill like G2????

Or is it that Curry completed the redemption of G2 and became the savior in the final quarter?

Can Harden continue the Magic Ball legend and have another 7-second offensive climax after his three-game winning streak was interrupted??????

Can Howard prove that he can suppress little Emperor James and firmly control the rebounds?

Can Turk Drew invite himself from 2 years ago?

Will Wade's knee be closed for the game? A shot in his career???

Will veterans Yao Ming and Okur rely on experience to become the X factor and suddenly break out???

Can Chalmers' three-point shooting return to G1 level???

Can Bosh's Dragon King Roar still drive the rhythm????

How many times can Matthews, Beverly and Danny Green’s super defensive lineup be seen in defensive rounds???

Fans and commentators are looking forward to the last 12 minutes of G7 with great appetite!

The TV screen also showed Jiang Chao’s previous interview with NBA officials:

"At this time you have to ask yourself if this is your only chance in this life!"

The final shot shows the Eastern Conference Championship Trophy, which has been moved to the scene today, as well as David Stern and a number of officials.

There is no draw in basketball, it’s a decisive victory!

Accompanied by the super passionate dance of the Heat cheerleaders, who almost jumped out of their skins.

The fourth quarter has begun!
