Nba: This Superstar Is Too Stable

This may be the most positive and exciting year for New York fans in nearly a decade.

The Knicks got out of the quagmire and succeeded in rebuilding, but unexpectedly made it to the playoffs in the rebuilding year, and went all the way to the Eastern Conference Finals!

I thought that the Eastern Conference finals against the Heat would definitely lose.

But after the first four games, the tenacious Knicks played 2:2 with the Heat by virtue of their star performance and luck.

Even though they were defeated in Miami in the Battle of Tianwangshan, the fans in New York still supported the team that gave them unlimited hope!

New York has perhaps the largest number of fans in the entire league, and the most frenzied.

Perhaps the only one who can compare with them is the fans in Los Angeles.

Obviously, a Madison Square Garden cannot accommodate a large number of New York fans, and the open space outside the stadium is also limited.

The vast majority of Knicks fans still can only choose to watch the game live at home or in other places. Their enthusiasm is no less than those who go to the scene to watch the game, but the tickets are too expensive.

Of course, they also opened up another battlefield.

In the community, forums and even social networks, Knicks fans are of course engaged in fierce arguments with Heat fans, and it can even be said - a "scolding war"!

"Where is the superior dog of the Heat? What about the 4-0 sweep? We have won two games now, and we will win the sixth game soon, and we are going to play the tiebreaker with you, how do you say?"

"That is, there are those so-called experts who say that the gap in strength is too large, 4:0, at most 4:1, does it hurt?"

"Trash Heat fans don't bark. It's so hard to beat an unformed lineup like us. What if we lose this year? Can you still beat us next year?"

On the other hand, the Heat fans are naturally not to be outdone.

"Don't brag, should you lose or you have to lose, the Big Three exert their strength in the second half, and you will be gone."

"A group of pseudo-fans, you are so arrogant, don't you know that the Heat are the force in the second half? I guess you won't be able to laugh in a while."

That's right, the Heat are a really strong team in the second half.

Shortly after the second half of the game, Chris Bosh took the lead.

In the 15 minutes of the intermission, he seemed to find his touch. After playing, he made 2 consecutive mid-range shots.

Forcing Turiaf had to top the defense out, so that Bosh will have the opportunity to impact the basket.

After 6 points in a row by Bosh, the Heat took the lead.

The Knicks, on the other hand, played steadily. Since the teammates were in good shape today, Bai Feng stood at the top of the arc and dealt the cards.

After Anthony started making one in the second half, he started hammering again.

But fortunately on the other side, Stoudemire was in good shape, and he was in a pick-and-roll match with Bai Feng.

However, next, the Heat began their strategy of frequently hitting the basket.

Since they had already played like this in the first half, both Turiaf and Stoudemire of the Knicks had accumulated a lot of fouls. At the beginning of the second half, when the Heat attacked again, they did not dare to defend. too fierce.

After Wade and James scored consecutively, the difference was widened again.

On the other hand, the Knicks' hit rate declined.

At this point, the fans at the scene couldn't help but get a little anxious.

"No, our hit rate has started to drop. Bai Feng should stand up, right?"

"Bai Feng, it's up to you to fight, get up!"

"Looks like I have to watch Bai Feng again tonight!"

Everyone is looking forward to Bai Feng, but Bai Feng doesn't seem to have the desire to rush up and attack on the court.

At this time, D'Antoni was sitting on the coach's bench with his hands on his chest, recalling the conversation between him and Bai Feng just after halftime.

At the end of the intermission, D'Antoni and Bai Feng chatted for a while alone after talking to the team about the precautions for the second half.

At that time, D'Antoni said sincerely to Bai Feng: "Bai Feng, the game has already reached this point. To be honest, we have completed the task of this season, but everyone definitely wants to win. You are on the court in the second half. Play as you like, it's up to you."

D'Antoni is completely delegating and encouraged Bai Feng.

In fact, he also understands that even if he doesn't say anything, Bai Feng will take on the responsibility of leading the team on the court.

From past games, D'Antoni has seen Baiquan lead the team to victory more than once.

Therefore, he trusts Bai Feng very much.

Bai Feng nodded, but said: "Coach, I think this game, if we want to win, we have to rely on stability!"

At this time, D'Antoni was thinking about this sentence.

"Just hold on."

Well, this is indeed Bai Feng's style all along, but the premise of stability is to have an advantage.

In addition to the Knicks, the Heat are the underdog.

Therefore, in this round of the series, most of the time, Bai Feng is no longer the steady play mode he used to play.

He allowed himself to be more actively involved in the offense and made a strong performance of 40+ in order to lead the team to victory.

Really stable, maybe it's just G1.

However, the premise of that game was that the Knicks were well-prepared, so that the Heat were unexpected, stabilized the rhythm and dragged the Heat into the rhythm of the Knicks when they were leading all the time. Victory.

But tonight's game is completely different.

The rhythm is not in the hands of the Knicks. Since the Heat won Tianwangshan, they seem to have found a way against the Knicks.

Constantly impacting the basket, the Knicks seem to be not weak, but the rim protection that is actually very bad is completely exposed.

Moreover, the situation is still backward, how to "stabilize" it?

But Bai Feng on the court really played like this. Even if his teammates missed consecutive shots, he no longer actively participated in the offense like G4 did.

For a time, D'Antoni couldn't understand.

However, on the next answer.

The Knicks failed to attack. The Heat won the rebound and planned to launch a fast break. Bosh's pass to James was a little careless. Bai Feng found the opportunity and went straight to steal it. Riyaf, the latter easily abused the box to score.

In an instant, the scene that had been silent for a long time exploded again.

The Heat attacked, and this time, the Knicks' defense began to shrink.

LeBron James is trying to shoot from the perimeter, but still strikes.

When the Knicks attacked, Bai Feng called Stoudemire for a pick-and-roll. Seeing that Bosh didn't defend after the pick-and-roll, he made a decisive three-pointer.

Swish!

hit!

After winning 5 points in a row, the difference was recovered in an instant, and the fans at the scene cheered again.

"Come, come, is Bai Feng's performance coming?"

"No, looking at his position, tonight's Bai Feng doesn't seem to have any plans to do it by himself. He has returned to his previous steady style of play."

"...No matter what style of play, as long as you can win, that's fine!"

Is it better to play steadily? Or is it better to score with passion?

In terms of viewing, it is definitely the latter.

But in the playoffs, viewing is second, whether the team can win is the ultimate foundation.

Even in this round of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Heat, Bai Feng has both styles of winning and losing.

You can win with the robustness of G1, but lose when G2 starts a personal attack.

G3 is a prudent style of play and established a huge lead but encountered Wade's comeback and lore.

G4 Bai Feng stood up again and gave the opponent ten lore.

As for G5, it is an atypical game, and there is not much reference value.

Looking at such a record, it's really hard to say which style will be better.

The situation on the field is confusing.

The Heat was in a downturn for a while, and someone from the Knicks stood up. Carmelo Anthony seemed to be the most active player on the Knicks tonight, but he was accurate for a while, not for a while, not in bad form , It should be that the ups and downs of mentality and physical fitness are somewhat severe.

On the Heat side, Wade is also ineffective from time to time.

Playing at the Knicks home, you can get far less whistle than in American Airlines Arena.

It mainly depends on the referee's whistle-blowing scale today.

The two sides have come and gone, but the score has been biting each other, forming a tug-of-war.

What broke the deadlock was the rotation of the two sides.

The Knicks' rotation is so bad, they're always getting blown out by the opposing team at rotation time.

This seems to have become a commonplace question.

In this round of the Eastern Conference Finals, they also performed very stable for most of the time.

Except that G3 broke out and suppressed the opponent, but in the end the Knicks were overturned.

Tonight, they once again dragged down the Knicks' main lineup.

In just 4 minutes in the third quarter, this rotation actually only scored 3 points, while the opponent scored 12 points!

This kind of performance is called pulling the hips.

Of course, this rotation can't be completely blamed, after all, the strength of the players is very weak.

Compared with players such as Chalmers, Joel Anthony, and Mike Miller in the Heat's rotation, the level gap is too large, and they should play such a scene.

The main reason is that the management of the Knicks, of course, they do not have much responsibility.

This season was supposed to be a rebuilding season, to get a big-name star like Anthony at the trade deadline? Wrong? Yes!

When the team rebuilds and engages in transactions, it must give priority to the main frame. After the main frame is determined, it starts to strengthen.

No one will replenish the role players outside the framework from the beginning, so the Knicks this season, it is too late to strengthen the team.

So, they're really not wrong.

If I really want to find someone wrong, I can only say that the fault is that the Knicks played so well that they didn't expect them to enter the playoffs, but they went all the way to the Eastern Conference Finals.

‥…for flowers

Can you believe this?

But the fact is that they not only reached the Eastern Conference Finals, but also fought with the mighty Heat Three to G6.

Although it seems that there is a lack of change, the Knicks, who have not enough depth in the lineup, have run out of ammunition and have no way to compete with the Heat.

Now the scene is also behind, failure is very close to them.

But the fans still relentlessly cheered them on at home!

Harsh New York fans did not ask the Knicks to do more at this time, just because the Knicks have given them too many surprises this season, as well as a bright and infinite future.

Even if you lose tonight, you will still be honored!

In order not to leave regrets, D'Antoni directly changed into the main lineup at the beginning of the fourth quarter, obviously, to let them play the last quarter.

The bench lineup is completely unpredictable, let them

An extra minute on the field will only make it worse.

And this fourth quarter, perhaps the last 12 minutes of the Knicks' playoffs this season.

Stoudemire, Anthony and Bai Feng, as well as JR Smith and Turiaf, as the main body of this Knicks team, dared to work hard in the playoffs and played their glory!

D'Antoni used four words: "No regrets."

Let them play to their heart's content.

Although physical fitness will be a problem, if you lose the game and are eliminated, what is the use of keeping physical fitness?

Youth, is to wantonly sweat.

Youth is about having the courage to try and fail.

Youth is to find the true self in the limit.

D'Antoni is a guy who knows how to help young people grow.

.....0......

Seeing such a substitution, the Knicks fans burst into cheers!

As soon as he played, the Knicks achieved results. Anthony came up as a storm, and the Heat's bench lineup had no way to deal with him.

On the other hand, seeing this, Coach Spoel also cautiously chose to suspend at the first time, and also replaced all the main players.

Obviously, for the Heat, this victory is also very important.

Although the advantages are obvious, they do not dare to be too big. They must firmly hold the victory of this game in their hands and do not want any accidents.

Otherwise, if they lose G6, the game will go to a tiebreaker!

Even in the tiebreaker, the Heat have a greater chance of winning at home, but this round of series has been played for a long time, and going to the tiebreaker will be a huge drain on the team

.

After that, the Heat will play in the finals. Although the opponent Mavericks doesn't look strong, and they were once their defeat, they still can't take it lightly.

In this way, the main lineups of both sides are back, ready for the best showdown!

The Heat attacked, and as soon as they came up, Flash Wade relied on the pick-and-roll to break through to the basket, and a European step layup scored 2 points.

On the Knicks side, Anthony's hit is regrettable.

In the Heat's round, Wade broke through and compressed the Knicks' defense again, and passed it to Bosh, who had a chance to pull out the outside line. The latter even hit a three-pointer!

In an instant, the enthusiastic atmosphere of the fans at the scene was reduced a lot.

The score also came to 75:84, and the Knicks were already 9 points behind.

Chris Bosh isn't a 3-pointer, but when he's feeling good, he's able to take the occasional one.

However, although his ball is only a three-pointer, it is devastating to the Knicks' defensive strategy.

As the Heat kept hitting the basket, the Knicks' defense was shrinking and shrinking again, leaving only Bai Feng on the perimeter to guard Bibby.

LeBron James has been confirmed to have a very poor hand tonight. He made four or five three-pointers, and none of them were able to hit.

Wade's long-range shots aren't good either, and he's just hitting a few sporadically from the mid-range.

In this way, the space of the Heat team's lineup is extremely poor, unless they replace Mike Miller to play a big or a small, the sense of space will be opened, and the outside threat will be greatly increased.

But the price paid is that the Knicks can't match the defensive end at all.

So in fact, the Heat did not play well today, and the Knicks have an advantage.

The reason why the Heat took the lead was due to the absolute advantage of the rotation in the first half and the end of the third quarter.

But now, Bosh, who was completely released from beyond the arc, is also on, and the effect is completely different.

The Knicks' shrinking defense will face a dilemma.

Once you start to choose to guard Bosh from beyond the arc, the restricted area will become empty, and James and Wade can easily break to the basket and score.

At this time, Bai Feng still kept his composure and confirmed his thought again.

"Yes, the Heat still have a big lead, and Wade's performance is fully worthy of a superstar... But we can't panic, we must continue to play steadily, because

Before long, they will definitely have problems!
