The rest is just noise

The Knicks' murderous press forced the Blazers to rotate early.

Pat Riley replaced his core players.

But the killings of the Murder Press do not end there. Even in the face of the entire main force of the Trail Blazers, the Murder Press can still achieve results.

When Riley realized that being beaten passively was not good, just like the Celtics back then, he ordered the players on the field to counterattack the Knicks with a full-court press.

When the Celtics used a full-court press to respond to a full-court press, it caused a lot of trouble for the Knicks at first. But the Knicks quickly adapted.

Because the Celtics' personnel structure is not suitable for a fierce full-court press.

The Blazers are different. Their luxurious wing group is a guarantee of pressure, and their full-court press can maximize their advantages.

Riley discovered that he was really an idiot.

The team is obviously modeled after the Knicks, so why not learn everything?

He has never learned the trademark of Murderous Press.

The Trail Blazers' full-court press had an effect on the Knicks.

The two sides fell into a fight for each other. Seeing that the Knicks' previously established advantage was about to be taken away, Louis requested a timeout.

Three minutes before the end of the first quarter, Louis replaced Ainge, Stevens and Kemp and replaced Stockton, Miller and Ewing.

The Knicks are back, facing the Blazers who are eager to kill them.

Moreover, the Blazers, who decided to use the press against the press, found that the Knicks put away the murderous press, as if they had admitted defeat.

However, the Trail Blazers soon discovered that their full-court press was not so effective in front of a team with multiple ball handlers and high tactical skills.

Stockton has good dribbling skills. Although he cannot withstand the pressure of the Trail Blazers, he can accurately pass the ball to Wilson in the gap.

Because the Blazers were just improvising and had never practiced the full-court press, the tacit understanding and adaptability among the players were very poor.

The Knicks found a solution on the spot, and Wilson repeatedly dribbled the ball through the half court.

The tragedy maker could only sigh: "Except for the Knicks, I have never seen any team that can kill a game with full-court press."

"Before the Knicks, few teams used the full-court press as their ultimate move."

"Yes, the full-court press is usually a strategic weapon with an overwhelming advantage." The tragedy expert explained, "Only when you have an absolute advantage in physical talent and strength confrontation, can you use the full-court press to destroy your opponent.

The NBA is the number one basketball league in the world. Although the teams are divided into strong and weak teams, the gap between the players is not that big."

"Yes, it is really surprising that the Knicks' full-court press can be successful and become their best strategy."

Breaking the Blazers' murderous press is only the first step.

The Knicks' subsequent offense also shocked the audience.

Fans in Memorial Stadium were disappointed with the game because the Blazers' physical defense was not as effective as it could have been.

Stockton dribbled through and passed to Rodman, who then passed to Miller.

Miller made a three-pointer and scored.

Stockton was unguarded on the outside, so he hit a three-pointer from the top of the arc and made it.

Wilson encountered heavy defense, and the Trail Blazers treated him one-on-one with Jordan and Clifford Robinson double-teaming him at any time.

However, when Wilson encountered a double-team for the first time, he used a move that shocked everyone and used a behind-the-crotch backhand dribble past Robinson. Although he did not get rid of Jordan, he dribbled with a freehand rhythm and completely ignored the Flyers' defense.

Here, collect the ball, pull it up, aim at the basket, voila!

At the end of the first quarter, the Knicks, with full firepower from defense to offense, scored 36 points in a single quarter, leading the Trail Blazers by 14 points.

Wilson had 15 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists in a single quarter, leading the game in all statistics, and suppressed Jordan in the matchup.

This was the first time since the start of the series, and it was also the only game in which Wilson and Jordan had played against each other so far that it could be said that he defeated Jordan.

His attitude is very clear, if you lose in the second game, you will get it back in the third game.

Whether it's the home court advantage in the series or the outcome of his matchup with Jordan.

He burned like a flame, with full offensive and defensive intensity. He was the first to lead the murderous press, and then acted as an arrow in the process of breaking the Blazers' full-court press.

Before the start of the second quarter, Riley yelled irrationally: "If Benjamin comes to our inside again, I will see blood!"

Not only the Blazers players heard Riley's words, his voice was so loud that even the Knicks heard it.

Louis looked at the opponent with a smile and said loudly: "If Benj bleeds because of the Trail Blazers' defense, you have to make sure that they bleed more than Benj in the next game."

Today's Trail Blazers may surpass the Knicks in their playing style and physical intensity.

But they have yet to win a game using this style of play.

However, their opponent, the New York Knicks, really used this style of play to oust the Celtics dynasty from their throne.

When necessary, they will go back to the past.

If that's the only way to win, they'll get back to their old self.

In the second quarter, Louis let Wilson rest for a few minutes, and Ewing led half of the main team against the Blazers' second team led by Barkley.

Although Barkley is difficult to defend when attacking with the ball and the basket at the elbow, the Knicks won't have a headache if it's just him.

The Flying Pigs are the big and small kings, and Jordan is undoubtedly the king.

Because when Barkley is on the court alone, he can be targeted. The Knicks can't guard him, but his defense can't guard the Knicks either. He may even become prey on the Knicks' offense, just like during the Warriors dynasty.

Curry is always targeted like Teemo in League of Legends.

The difference between these types of targets is that one is targeted because of the hatred value, one is because attacking him is effective, and the other is because attacking him can win.

Barkley is the last one. As a three-and-four swing, his defense is essentially a headache for the team.

As long as he is on the court and Jordan is not, the Knicks' offense can be divided into two types.

One is an inside attack with Ewing as the core, and the other is an f-league pick-and-roll at the top of the arc with Stockton, Miller and Maxwell as the main players to find Barkley.

Even if Barkley's shooting percentage in the paint is as high as 60%, the Knicks can easily fight back.

Riley discovered that Barkley couldn't lead the second team.

The second team surrounding Barkley is Brian Shaw, Porter, Jerome Cosey, and Nance. Except for Porter, these four players have no outside shooting threats.

Therefore, the Knicks can surround Barkley with three or four players without any lower limit, as long as one person is left to take care of Porter.

Although Barkley was brave, he still shot 60% when challenging the Knicks' double-team, but the Knicks' response shot rate was also over 50%, and included nearly half of the three-pointers.

Barkley was supposed to show off his talents, but the Knicks targeted his weaknesses for half a quarter. Not only did the point difference not narrow, it widened by 4 points.

The pioneers made one wrong step and another wrong step.

When they traded for Jordan, Louis also traded for Wilson.

After one and a half quarters of games, the Knicks had established a clear advantage, while the Blazers' momentum gradually dissipated.

Barkley couldn't get enough energy and began to tire when he tried to exert his strength again. When it was Jordan's turn to take over, the "law" was approaching again.

In the last game, Jordan used his strong personal ability and determination to win to break the "law", but tonight, the entire Trail Blazers team was suppressed, and the unfavorable situation affected Jordan's mentality.

The mentality of having problems also affected his performance in dealing with Jordan's Rules.

The pioneers are in a difficult situation, but they still have dreams.

Their dream is to shut down Wilson.

Wilson encountered double teams when attacking with the ball, but he was not afraid because his ability to break double teams is much better now.

The Trail Blazers' double attack is not as scary as the Knicks' because the Knicks' three-point threat is too strong, which prevents the Blazers from using a pure double attack. When Mason, who is responsible for the double attack, chooses to be closer to delaying the pursuit when guarding the pick and roll.

Behind Mason, Clifford Robinson was being held back from the three-point line by shooters such as Miller. Even if Mason and Robinson were already one of the best defensive front combinations in the league, they couldn't compete with Ewing.

Compared to this kind of super center.

Therefore, when the Trail Blazers' double-teaming was applied to Wilson, not only did it not work, but it allowed him to get through. The same thing, Stockton and Chris Jackson can do it. If the double-teaming cannot lock the person,

Then defense becomes meaningless.

The Trail Blazers, who claimed to want to see the blood of Wilson who was driving to the basket, let alone see the blood at this time, they couldn't even touch Wilson's body, and he rubbed his body and passed right through.

It seemed that it was not a double-team, but more like an experiment to come to Wilson's side to prove that he was completely unable to keep up with the opponent.

Jordan was troubled by the "law", and the Blazers gradually slumped, while Wilson, like a male monkey in heat, took the ball when he saw a Blazers player.

Once, Anthony Mason finally seized the opportunity to violently collide with his body, but he elbowed him away. The impact he exerted was instead used by Wilson.

Mason fell to the ground, and Wilson brutally dunked with his hands spread out.

Wilson deliberately pulled down the basket before landing to express that he was still unsatisfied.

This game was completely ruined.
