The Point Guard is Here

The Knicks are very strong, and it's not that they can't function without Fan Xie.

In essence, Vanhey is the icing on the cake for the Knicks.

They did not have Van Heede last season, and they reached the tiebreaker with the Houston Rockets in the Finals. Although the overall strength has declined slightly this season and there is a shortage of personnel, the foundation of a strong team is still there.

After the start of the third quarter, the desperate New York players stubbornly held back the pace of the young Magic.

The bloody Fan Xie had a great impact on the brothers. Although they were laughing and laughing in the locker room, everyone's fighting spirit was more tenacious and vigorous when they arrived on the court.

Meanwhile, the Orlando Magic are eager to close the gap, but haste makes waste.

Patrick Ewing guarded the bottom line of the four major centers. Although he couldn't support O'Neal, it was also difficult for O'Neal to limit his efficient face-to-frame attack tonight. The two sides were equivalent to mutual explosions.

Meanwhile, Starks and Hubert were surprises on the perimeter. Perhaps it was Fan Xi who opened up the second channel of Ren and Du in the second quarter, and his passion was directed to the right place, frequently showing his energy as a passionate defender.

Hardaway, a sophomore, had nothing to do with him. Starks is rough, but he is tough. Moreover, he has played against top guards such as Jordan and Glider for many years, and has much more experience than Hardaway.

At the end of the third quarter, instead of narrowing the score, the ambitious Magic team was seized by the Knicks to expand the score. New York entered the fourth quarter with a 12-point lead.

If this trend continues, the Knicks will lock in the Eastern Conference championship.

Fan Xie was very happy sitting on the bench, and his eyes were full of 'joy' when he looked at Hardaway.

Some of Hardaway's talent is immediately his own.

This feeling... how to put it! !

Cool!

Fan Xi didn't like this kind of feeling of "getting something for nothing". There is nothing better than getting talent out of thin air from others, let alone from someone who hates himself so much.

Mr. Hardaway, the Chosen Son, don't be too sad in the future.

"Hey! Jack, does my jump shot look very graceful, like a bodybuilder showing off his beautiful muscle curves.

"

Starks had a happy chat with Fan Xie after he left the field.

Fanhee was also very happy, telling Starks: "Your jumper looks like Schwarzenegger doing calisthenics."

Starks immediately gave a thumbs up, Fan Xi was still able to chat, and a few words made him happy like a child.

It's just... does Schwarzenegger really look good doing aerobics?

The fourth quarter started quickly.

At this time, the Knicks already had a strong morale buff, and everyone's state was almost as if they had been beaten.

After playing, it is still stable.

And strongly withstood the Magic's fierce counterattack in the first three minutes. With Hardaway, O'Neal, and Grant fully fired, they still maintained a 9-point lead.

For the Magic, there is no doubt that it is desperate.

Wilt Chamberlain on TV is saying: For Orlando, there are no miracles. The New York Knicks blocked them at a high level tonight. But they are still young and the future is theirs.

This is extremely cruel to the Magic fans in front of the TV.

The series has repeatedly tugged at their emotions, sending them hopeful, then hopeless, hopeful, and now hopeless.

Is it really like Chamberlain said, can only look forward to next season?

Is there really no miracle at all?

Countless Orlando fans whispered in front of the TV.

Brian Hill in the arena was also engrossed in the game, hoping that the game would take a turn for the better.

Time passed bit by bit.

Neither Hardaway nor O'Neal gave up on the court. They were both young and hoped to create miracles and bring the final battle back to Orlando.

O'Neal tried his best. He often carried Ewing, Mason, Oakley and others in the paint to smash into the basket abruptly.

He really showed the embryonic form of a super center tonight, and even Wilt Chamberlain praised him, saying that he has the shadow of a dominant center, and over time, he will become even stronger.

Hardaway also tried his best tonight, he didn't want to lose.

After defeating Jordan, his popularity reached an unprecedented peak. A first-team player in the second grade, the only guard who beat Jordan, the player with the highest priced sneakers in the Nike camp, the god of guards in the future... A series of auras fell on him, and he enjoyed unprecedented glory.

He felt he had to defend these honors.

Originally, the combination of him and O'Neal should also be able to destroy the old Knicks, just like Jordan eliminated the Knicks before.

However, that damn bastard Fan Xi appeared.

The player Hardaway hated the most made Hardaway deflated three times in a row. This is the biggest setback he has suffered since his debut.

He couldn't take it.

Especially when he looked at the Knicks bench and found that Fan Xi was looking at him with a smile on his face, he felt extremely insulted. He felt that Fan Xi's eyes looked at him full of offense, just like a man pointing at a dancer in a nightclub.

Resentment formed in the mind of the young genius.

The difficult situation is in front of him abruptly, and he can't break free from the shackles of the current Knicks.

So, this young, sensitive genius was out of balance, and his thinking went to extremes.

His movements started to get ugly.

When Starks completed a jumper in front of him, he actually made a stepping motion. However, the Starks star shines brightly and doesn't step on it.

And he didn't notice that the Chosen One who was praised by the alliance in front of him would be so dirty.

The game moved forward peacefully.

As the game time dwindled, Hardaway became more and more urgent.

He didn't want to lose, and even jumped the wall in a hurry.

When there were 5 minutes left in the game, he finally completed a deadly dangerous move.

At that time, the gorilla Ewing completed a jump shot from the free throw line. injury.

Sure enough, after landing on the ground, Ewing covered his knees in pain and let out a slightly mournful growl. This tough guy was in extreme pain.

The referee blew his whistle and gave Hardaway a defensive foul.

Everyone didn't think in the direction that he was a malicious foul.

The Knicks team doctor quickly came up to check on Ewing.

Although Ewing gritted his teeth and gasped for air, he claimed that he had nothing to do with it and that he could continue the game, it was just a flawed injury.

But after the team doctor's examination, I am afraid that his ligaments have problems again. Quickly let him go back to the bench to rest, and then arranged for a trolley to come in and push him out for inspection.

Ewing left.

The absolute core and spiritual leader of the Knicks is gone.

Although the media has always ridiculed his key ball ability. But his departure due to injury at this time is a heavy blow to the Knicks.

The Orlando Magic really ushered in their turning point.

The Magic fans in front of the TV were so happy, they had no sympathy.

The camera also captured Hardaway's proud smile.

The current Knicks still lead by 8 points, but after Ewing leaves, this 8 points will not be an insurmountable gap.

Fan Xi realized the big deal, and he was very worried that Ewing would be reimbursed for the season.

If Ewing can't play next, and this game is lost, the Knicks have no hope.

The originally good situation took a sudden turn for the worse.

Could it be...is it really so difficult to change history?

Could it be... Is Hardaway really the so-called Chosen One?

Fan Xi clenched his teeth, he just didn't believe it.

He wanted to change his fate against the sky.

Moreover, he discovered... Hardaway's ball just now was intentional, he didn't go for the ball at all.

Such a disgusting person, why should he steal the victory?

Fan Xi was extremely indignant.

He turned to Riley for a fight.

Riley thought about it, and did not arrange for Fan Xie to play for the time being. He felt that he still had an 8-point lead and had a free throw opportunity.

But after 1 minute, he regretted it.

Because Charles Smith replaced Ewing's extra penalty and missed, O'Neal went down the mountain to grab the rebounds. Then with a long swing, Hardaway received the basketball and ran wildly, arrived in the frontcourt, quickly passed it to Nick Anderson, and Anderson caught the ball... Swoosh!

Hit 3 points.

Only 5 points left.

At this moment, Fan Xi had already stood up.

Pat Riley is also hesitating whether to call a timeout, and Charles Smith, who is serving on the court, also thinks that the head coach will call a timeout to let Fan Xie come up.

After losing Ewing, the Knicks players have actually placed their backbone on the young Van Heeed. After getting along with each other this season, everyone has formed the image of Van Heeed being stable at critical moments.

Pat Riley stretched out his hand and was about to call a timeout... Smith, who couldn't wait for the instruction, had already delivered the ball, and at this time... Hardaway shot out from the diagonal stab again, stealing the basketball, and then passed it to Nick Anderson.

Anderson shot again at the top of the arc... Swoosh!

He hit another 3.

Two consecutive three-pointers directly narrowed the point difference to 2 points.

Madison Garden is a blast!

All this came too suddenly.

No one expected that this would happen in less than a minute.

Watching the Orlando Magic players roar on the court, their morale went from sluggish to full of momentum.

beep!

Pat Riley hurriedly requested a timeout.

Fan Xi must be replaced.

At this time, Fan Xi came up with an astonishing idea: "Let's fight and run away. At this time, we can only suppress them with a crazier offensive, otherwise there is no way to suppress their momentum."

Fanhee looked at Pat Riley with sincere and urgent eyes.

He hoped Pat Riley would agree to his proposal.

Jeff Van Gundy on the side quickly expressed his opinion: This is too risky. The fight in the playoffs is defense. We are still leading by 2 points. As long as we play steadily, we will definitely be able to defend.

But Fan Xi couldn't care about anything else at this time. He retorted to Jeff Van Gundy: "We have lost the ability to fight steadily in positional warfare, and we must win by surprise."

This is the first time Vanhee has confronted Jeff Van Gundy head-on.

Van Gundy choked in place.

He was about to fight back.

Pat Riley has made a decision, he is a courageous head coach.

He bet.

Moreover, he used to play show-time.

At that time, the Lakers had the number one point guard in history, Magic Johnson.

Now.

"It's up to you, Jack." Pat Riley patted Fan Xie on the shoulder. Although he didn't say anything serious, his eyes showed infinite expectations: If you can't win this game, it's all over. .

Fan Xi nodded vigorously.

Then, he wants Charles Oakley, Anthony Mason, Hubert, Starks to play with him.

He even put Charles Smith, a middle-range master who can swing the third and fourth positions and can attack independently, on the bench.

He wants to gamble.

Starks and Hubert playing with him are both shooters, Anthony Mason and Oakley have a certain mid-range shooting ability, and are full of athletic power forwards.

To some extent, his run and gun can even be as crazy as the 2006 Suns.

The face is still magic with young sharks.

This time, Fan Xi gambled too much.

no way.

With Ewing's injury unknown, Fan Xi had no choice but Stud.

He wants to change history, he wants to change Hardaway's historical achievements, and he wants to change his upper limit of ability.

How can you get tiger cubs if you don't enter the tiger's lair?

beep!

The whistle sounded.

must begin.

When Vansee, Hubert, Starks, Mason, and Oakley stepped onto the court, the fans, Orlando players, TV commentators, and the audience in front of the TV were all in a daze.

This is a lineup of three small guards and two power forwards.

Even Michael Jordan was dumbfounded in front of the TV.

He had never seen such a battle.

However, in Oakland, there is a fat little old man with bright eyes: Is this going to attack at full speed at a critical moment? Pat Riley is such a motherfucker.

But, can Little Jack take on the responsibility of managing everything?

Don Nelson was thinking about it.

At this point, the Knicks had already served.

With 4 minutes and 26 seconds left in the game, Van Hee launched a quick attack.

Hardaway defended himself.

He has been looking forward to this moment for a long time.

He wanted to imprison Fan Xi completely at the critical moment, cut off his way forward, and kill his demons.

In his opinion, he is a general, and Fan Xi is just a fly.

There is no reason to hold back because of this fly.

Let's end it all tonight.

Hadaway gritted his teeth and stretched his arms in front of Fan Xi.

He just made up his mind... bang!

The basketball went straight through his crotch...he didn't even think about it.

And when he pretended to chase the ball, Fan Xi had already galloped away from him, and Mason, who received the basketball from behind him, immediately passed the ball.

It's a beautiful wall-to-wall fit.

Fan Xi effortlessly passed Hadaway who was trying to kill the demon.

He rushed into the paint in an instant, and went deep alone under Grant's pursuit. When he reached the basket, he suddenly stopped, then looked back at the moon, and the basketball passed to the bottom corner... Hubert rushed to him.

This is a trick that no one expected.

Hubert catches the basketball and makes a quick shot... Whoa!

Three-point hit.

Stabilize the morale of the army!

...

...

There is another update in the middle of the night tonight, to finish writing this series.
