Basketball Fanatic: Genius Is on the Left

Chapter 395: Expansion will fail

Looking at the data comparison between the two sides in this field, we know that what Barkley said is true.

The Celtics were completely behind in this game, with a 16 percentage point difference in hit rate and 13 fewer shots.

The only thing with more statistics than the Knicks turned out to be mistakes. It was a situation that even the most loyal fans of the Green Army couldn’t hold back.

In terms of scoring, the Green Army scored the highest with Pierce's 19 points, Ray Allen only scored 11 points, Rondo scored 8 points and 10 assists, and even worse was the inside line. Big Baby and Perkins scored 14 points together. , the substitute Eddie House scored 9 points, so after the game, the two were also considered to be the biggest blamers of the Celtics' defeat.

In short, G1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals was a game that Knicks fans couldn't believe even after watching it.

Many fans who failed to catch up with the live broadcast for various reasons thought again the first time they saw the news: "Damn... Have the Knicks been so strong?! Bloody abuse of the Celtics?!"

Even this line affects the odds of winning the title...

Before the start of the semifinals, the Knicks had the 6th championship odds, only higher than the Mavericks and the Rockets, and the Celtics 3rd, second only to the Cavaliers and the Lakers, but now, the Knicks This game directly knocked down the odds of winning the championship, replacing the Green Army to become the third place in the championship odds list, while the Green Army dropped to fourth.

Although this thing is over, it has no reference value, but it also shows how shocking the Knicks played in this game.

And this kind of shock is undoubtedly a great stimulus to the New York ball market. Two days later, the tickets for G2 had already been sold out, but after this game, people were panic buying again. Some tickets even sold 50,000 The sky-high price of the US knife really shocked people.

Even if this is New York and people are stupid and rich, it's amazing enough to come up with such tickets in this day and age.

This news spread to China, and it was no surprise that it caused heated discussions. Many people ridiculed New Yorkers for having too much money and nowhere to spend, but some loyal fans were still envious. After all, it is the dream of many people to go to Madison to watch football, and now There is Zuo Li sitting in town.

From the ratings broadcast by CCTV the next day, it can be seen that the Knicks and Celtics have been able to compete with the Lakers in the focus of the Rockets matchup, and the number of viewers is also a small loss, mainly because the Lakers and Rockets The domestic audience is too high and there are many fans, but this also shows the speed of the rise of the Knicks and Zuo Li, and they have been able to rank among the top three in terms of attention in China.

And the New York media never disappoints in this aspect of the fire. Before the game was over, some media had already played the slogan: "Knock out the defending champion!".

After the game, the title further developed into scalp-tingling slogans such as "We are the champions", "New York City of Heroes" and so on.

Many people are worried that if the media says so, it will be another round of slaughter, and whether the Knicks players will be arrogant and inflated.

Will the Knicks be proud? Can!

of course!

In this world, there is no team that is not inflated. In any competitive sports field, this sentence applies.

This is human nature, and it is difficult for even the calmest person to remain calm in the face of honor.

In fact, the Knicks themselves swelled in the locker room before the media influenced the Knicks.

The Knicks, who played too smoothly, even D'Antoni felt a little bit disregarding the Celtics.

After the game, the locker room celebrated wildly, and it was almost time to open champagne.

"They can't do it without Garnett, we're the best!" -- Randolph.

"They fell before I could exert force, and they can't do it either, the Eastern Conference, it must be in the Eastern Conference!" - Dragic.

Victory is naturally happy, but in times of safety, Zuo Li still smells a hint of crisis.

As the dialogue between Dragic and Randolph just showed, the Knicks have won too much, which can easily lead to complacency!

"What are you thinking, man, it's celebration time! I want to get you a bottle of champagne, now it's celebration time!" Little Ewing looked at Zuo Li in a daze, and came up to hug Zuo Li and said.

Only Zuo Li, the two-life old Jianghu, remained a little calm, and when everyone proposed to have a dinner to celebrate the victory, he said: "Guys, this is only the first game, let me disappoint, although we have the advantage, but We haven't won the final, and they're the defending champions, and from what I've learned about Pierce and Ray Allen over the years, they're not going to let it go."

This makes sense. The excited players nodded in agreement, and the dinner was canceled. D'Antoni also stood up to calm everyone down. Go home and rest early to prepare for the next G2.

But from the slogan "Let's kick them home" before leaving, although this is very true, and everyone has agreed to it, it is estimated that no one will listen to it now.

As a result, the expected two-game winning streak did not appear, but ushered in a big defeat.

If the Knicks voted in the first game and did not have it, this is how they voted and did not have it.

The basket seemed to cover them, the first 7 three-pointers were all made of iron, and even the first 6 shots from the left stand were only 3-for-1, barely maintaining a 50% hit rate.

In this state, the Celtics finally showed their iron-blooded defense to the world. The Knicks did not score more than 80 points in the whole game, and finally lost 78-96, also with a disadvantage of 18 points, and the big score became 1- 1.

Ray Allen scored 7 three-pointers in a single game and scored 28 points personally, almost tying the record for personal three-point shooting in a single game in the playoffs~www.readwn.com~ Pierce 20 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists, Rondo 4 points and 16 With an assist, the big three with the old and new directly knocked Madison out of his voice.

On the Knicks side, only Zuo Li scored 20 points and 11 rebounds, Randolph scored 15 points, and David Lee scored 10 points. Dragic, who played bravely in the last game, only scored 3 points, and was beaten by Germany at the last moment. Anthony enabled.

In short, this game knocked the Knicks back to the prototype.

At this time, there will be fans to comfort their companions: "The same 18-point difference, come and go, the two sides are five to five, it's okay, it's okay, continue to cheer in the end."

It's just the next game, will it really be as optimistic as the fans think?

On May 9th, the Celtics who returned to their home court in the North Shore Garden were more calm and more... brutal!

In this game, the Knicks regrouped and wanted to regain their home court advantage. In the opening, Zuo Li first completed a back play inside, which caused Perkins' thug, and then pulled out to shoot a three-pointer. The state was very good.

But at this time, the Celtics suddenly changed, Tony Allen came on the second position, and the inside and Pierce made a crazy attack on Zuoli.

Zuo Li could only keep throwing the ball, but the Knicks missed 4 shots from the outside. The Celtics seized the opportunity to play a wave of 10-0, and the Knicks only scored 18 points in a single quarter!

The Knicks generals became impatient, so the action became bigger and bigger. Randolph was soon called for a continuous foul because of the excessive action, and he had to leave the court for 3 fouls before halftime.

Zuo Li completely lost his assistance in the interior, although he played hard and fiercely, allowing Perkins to leave the field with 6 fouls in 6 minutes of the fourth quarter.

But the huge gap of 17 points still allowed the Knicks to lose and leave this crucial G3.

2-1.

The Knicks were already standing on the edge of a cliff.
