Nba: This Superstar Is Too Stable

119:117

Winning, the Knicks took a tough home win over the defending champion Lakers, extending their winning streak to 17 games!

Undoubtedly, for the audience, this is a full-on-the-offensive battle, and the game won't be decided until the last second, which also allows the fans to appreciate the counter-attack more. A little nervous.

For Knicks home fans who paid big bucks for tickets, as well as courtside bigwigs and stars, this game is definitely worth watching.

Bai Feng, Stoudemire and Anthony, the three core players of the Knicks, played extremely well and were the keys to ensuring the victory of this game.

Bai Feng scored 31 points and 20 assists in the game, the super-powerful double 20 data, Stoudemire also scored 30 points and 15 rebounds, and Carmelo Anthony scored the highest score for the Knicks.

The three of the home team scored 30+ points. This kind of performance is only three times in NBA history, plus the Knicks this time tonight.

However, it's worth pondering that two other times have also appeared this season!

They are the 33+30+31 of the Rockets Martin, Scola and Brooks at the beginning of the season, and the 33+31+30 of the Big Three of the Heat during the season.

What's more coincidental is that the three games are all the same.

Of course, this may not be a coincidence. In NBA games before this year, there has never been a performance of three people on the same team scoring 30+ points. Perhaps it is also because of the reform of the NBA's official rules over the years, as well as from the Celtics. The three-core mainstream lineup created by the team has formed such a situation.

In short, although the three people with 30+ are not the only ones, they are still commendable!

However, the most striking thing in this game is the super luxurious data of 63 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists by the Lakers star Kobe Bryant!

Kobe Bryant in this game once again turned into a terrifying scoring machine, especially his performance in the second and fourth quarters, which once made Knicks fans sounded the Kobe who scored 81 points in that year. Dare is not good, his own record of 81 points is really broken.

However, it has to be said that the Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni is not a head coach. At the final decisive moment, when the score between the two teams was tight, he decisively arranged the tactics of double-teaming Kobe.

So Kobe didn't get the chance to kill in the end.

The entire Madison Gardens became a sea of ​​joy, and Kobe, who lost the game, didn't walk away without a straight face.

With his head held high, his indifference during the game was long gone. Now he put on a smile and took the initiative to come to the Knicks to express the blessings of the team's "old guys".

He blessed Anthony: "Well done, Cameron, you were really good tonight."

Anthony also smiled: "Fortunately, you didn't shoot that lore, otherwise our winning streak would be gone.

The two of them laughed and shook hands at this time. They can't be called friends, but they can be sympathetic opponents!

Immediately afterwards, Kobe and Stoudemire had a brief exchange.

In the end, he came to Bai Feng, shook hands with him, and said, "Well done, young man, I have already been defeated by you twice, but you have to work hard in the future.

For Kobe's encouragement, Bai Feng nodded and smiled: "Thank you, Kobe, I will try my best."

The Los Angeles leader used his air to end the battle for the strongest "basketball culture."

New York is the winner tonight, the fans are cheering and jumping, and the keyboard warriors can show their superiority on the Internet.

However, after so many years, this rivalry has never been able to be distinguished.

The Lakers are still the team that attracts the most superstars in the entire league, and Rock Park is still overcrowded every day.

As for the Knicks, their miracle is still going on, they have won 17 consecutive victories, and they have killed almost all the strong teams in the league. So, what kind of level can they play in the upcoming playoffs? No one can say. .

Even if there are still a lot of media that the Knicks lack experience and sufficient depth of the lineup, they will be at an absolute disadvantage in the playoffs, but you dare to say that such a Knicks team will never create miracles again?

In the VIP double-team on the top floor of the arena, Knicks owner James Dolan was as happy as a child, jumping up and down, showing his team's achievements to his good friends.

The owner of the Cavaliers, Daniel Gilbert, had envy in his eyes, but also smiled: "James, you have indeed brought in a good team, your vision is also very good, this Bai Feng is of great value.... By the way, my brother Gary might be interested in him, bring him to some events if you have time."

James Dolan smiled: "Yo, Gary is interested in him? Your brother is one of the most famous producers in New York, is this going to pull you into acting?"

"His appearance will be more recognizable on the big screen. Few Asians can look so handsome. It's a pity not to be on the big screen."

"Hey, let's talk about it later. Bai Feng is now a key player in the Knicks' revival. After he leads the Knicks back to the top, I will consider what you said."

Scarlett and Taylor have always been paying attention to the opposite Aomei. Not long after the game, Bai Feng walked up to Aomei and said something to her.

In this way, they can determine the previous thought.

Instantly became unhappy.

The Knicks won the game, and perhaps the two of them became the only two unhappy people in the arena tonight.

The next day, the entire basketball media was fermenting and sensational!

"Bryant's 60+ slashing didn't stop the Knicks' 17-game winning streak, and the Electronx team was invincible?"

"No one can stop the Knicks' winning streak, they've become the biggest miracle of the season"

"The Knicks are about to enter the playoffs with a 20+ winning streak, will the Heat or Celtics be nervous?"

Reports about this are almost swiped on major media websites.

The 17-game winning streak of the Knicks has come to 38 wins and 38 losses, and the remaining 6 games, except for the Mavericks who are going to play the third in the West, are almost all teams with very average strength.

The media's analysis is correct. According to this momentum, it is easy for them to win another 6 consecutive victories, so they will definitely enter the playoffs in the sixth or seventh position in the Eastern Conference.

Whether it is against the Heat or the Celtics, I believe this matchup will definitely be very topical!

However, Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni is not thinking about this.

Early the next morning, he went to the team's general manager Steve Mills to discuss the team's "rotten" record and "snatch" the eighth place in the Eastern Conference. Bulls.

The Bulls are not necessarily weaker than the Celtics or the Heat, but for the characteristics of the Knicks, playing the Bulls is more suitable for them.

D'Antoni proved it with big numbers, and general manager Steve Mills agreed, but he still asked the key question: "The team is winning, how are you going to mess it up? "

D'Antoni said: "There is only one way at the moment, let Bai Feng Xiaosi and Anthony rest!"

Mills smiled: "Do you think if you let them rest, will they be willing? 17 consecutive victories, they are playing well, Bai Feng may be, he is a player who is willing to obey the coach's arrangement, Stoudemire is yours His old partner, he may agree, but do you think Carmelo Anthony will agree? He has just found the feeling recently, and the rest of the schedule will be easier. You let him stop playing, I can guarantee that he will Very upset."

Of course, D'Antoni wants to get this: "But, Steve, for our team to be more likely to make it to the second round. I think we should give it a try."

Mills said: Yes, I don't agree, but I don't want to try this thankless thing, I don't want to end up being a bad general manager.

D'Antoni:

That day, after the team's routine training, Mike D'Antoni still called Bai Feng, Stoudemire and Anthony and told them his thoughts.

Sure enough, Bai Feng and Stoudemire didn't say anything, but Carmelo Anthony was excited.

"What? Coach Mike, what did you say? Take a break?! Why should we take a break? We have no problem with physical fitness, and our physical condition is also very good. Besides, the team is on a winning streak, why do we do it?"

D'Antoni, of course, elaborated on the purpose of the rest.

Unexpectedly, Carmelo Anthony smiled and said: "Coach Mike, I think you are too conservative, I think whether we play the Heat, Celtics, or Bulls in the first round, it is the same, as long as our third brother is in shape, we can play. Anyone can win, watch us play the defending champions, what, you don't have confidence in us?"

Sure enough, as general manager Steve Mills expected.

With Anthony's character, he would definitely not lie to the people.

And he is a big-name star, with D'Antoni's coffee position, naturally he can't be suppressed.

But D'Antoni still bites the bullet and uses the big data of team analysts to try to convince Anthony that the Knicks have an advantage in playing the Bulls over the other two teams.

After some debate, Carmelo Anthony couldn't stand it first.

So, he said: "Okay, Coach Mike, I won't argue with you, let's do it this way, now the team is on a winning streak, 17 consecutive victories, this is everyone's hard work for more than a month, you can't just give up. ...... But what you said is not completely unreasonable, then let's do it like this, now you let us play as much as we like, if our winning streak is broken, how do you want to rest, we will listen to you. "

Hearing this, Mike D'Antoni burst into a wry smile.

This sounds like a compromise.

But with the current state of the Knicks and the more and more relaxed schedule after that, it is difficult to break this winning streak.

If you win another game or two, then there is no point in resting.

However, what else can D'Antoni say? He can only smile bitterly: "Okay, just do as you said.

After coming out of Mike D'Antoni, Anthony happily put his hand on the shoulder of a teammate and said with a smile: "Brothers, am I doing the right thing? You just say, with our state and strength, do we need to take a rest?"

Stoudemire said: "Coach Mike is also for our own good, but I think you're right, take a rest? It's only necessary if you don't have enough strength."

Bai Feng didn't say much, but responded with a "hmm".

Anthony suddenly changed the subject: Hey, Amare, my brothers on the New York Road are doing an event tonight, let's go together... By the way, Bai Feng, you are too young now

It's a bit inconvenient to go anywhere. When you are 21 years old next year, a few will take you with you. "

Bai Feng does not reject the idea of ​​going out with Anthony and Stoudemire, and even has a little bit of longing for it.

However, my age is also an issue.

Of course, even if you don't go out with them, you won't be idle.

The two XDFs, Taylor and Scarlett, made an appointment with themselves again, and it happened to be fine tonight, so I went to meet them.

New York fans have been very enthusiastic recently. After the victory over the Lakers, they were all waiting for the Knicks to end this fantastic season with a 23-game winning streak.

On this day, the Knicks will meet their next opponent at home, the Western powerhouse Dallas Mavericks.

This will probably be the only top-six team in the East and West in their six remaining games.

However, fans do not feel that the Mavericks are a formidable opponent, although the Knicks lost a game on the road against the Mavericks before this season, but that was a long time ago, and at that time Anthony He hasn't joined yet, and Bai Feng is not as mature as he is now.

In their opinion, the Mavericks are old, and the whole team gives people a very "soft" feeling. Although they are ranked third in the West, no one has ever regarded them as a strong team.

Maybe not just New York fans think so, fans around the world probably think so too.

The root of the formation of this impression, of course, has to start from 2006.

In 2006, the Mavericks were in full swing, knocking out the defending champion Spurs in the Western Conference and advancing to the finals. Facing the Heat led by the young Flash Wade at the time, they took a 2-0 lead in the first two games.

Just when everyone thought the Mavericks would win the championship without any suspense, the reversal happened!

The Flash Wade suddenly broke out, and in the next four games, he led the Heat to win four consecutive games, and finally reversed the Mavericks 4:2 to win the championship.

Although there were elements of that year's Finals that didn't seem fair.

But there is one thing to say, Wade's various tough performances, and Dirk Nowitzki's various stealth and soft-handedness at critical moments are also indisputable facts.

If the missed championship in 2006 can also be said to be the reason for the poor mentality of the referee and the Mavericks Nowitzki.

Then in 2007, the Mavericks played 67 wins and 15 losses in the league first, Nowitzki won the regular season MVP, but in the first round, the Warriors led by old Nelson were black eight.

The calf core was officially labeled as a "soft egg".

That is, since that year, the Mavericks have never reached the top!

The annual record is also good, can enter the playoffs, but is no longer the top team in the West.

Into the playoffs, and at most one or two rounds, it ended hastily.

Until this year, the lineup was changed, and the head coach was also changed. Now they are ranked third in the Western Conference, and no one is optimistic about them.

The fans of the Knicks saw that they were playing the Mavericks, and they all felt stable.

"Hahaha, the Mavericks, what is there to be afraid of with a team led by a soft egg? We can win 18 straight games by playing whatever we want."

"I really don't know how a team of the level of the Mavericks reached the third place in the West. Is there no one in the West?"

"I heard that their striker, Caron Butler, has also been reimbursed for the season, so let's play a woollen thread!"

"Stable, stable, this game must be won!"

Everyone is watching the Mavericks, and think the Knicks must be stable in this game.

However, before the game, Bai Feng's preparations were extraordinarily serious!

To this day, he still remembers the unknown pressure given to him by the Mavericks' point guard Jason Kidd against the Mavericks during the team's trip to the West at the beginning of the season.

sense!

After all, that was the first time Bai Feng encountered such a sense of oppression after entering the NBA.

Of course, it wasn't just that time that gave him a sense of oppression.

But the sense of oppression given by players like Derrick Rose comes from the gap in physical talent, which can be clearly felt and seen.

But the sense of oppression that Kidd gave is unknown!
