Chapter 331 2011~2012 NBA Championship(1/2)
It shouldn't, it won't, it won't be possible.
This is what New York fans and James fans are thinking at the moment.
It only happens three times. It is impossible for this kind of thing to happen a third time.
And they don't feel like the Knicks have lost their chance.
It's just a 0-2 deficit.
James is not the confused James he used to be.
The experience of last year's finals has allowed him to grow into a historical superstar.
The disadvantage is only temporary.
"The Knicks will start to fight back in New York! The final score will be 4 to 2!"
This comment received responses from many fans.
It’s not that they are stupid, but the Mavericks have a criminal record!
In the 2006 Finals, the Mavericks also had the home court advantage, also 2-0, and in the end, the Heat lost 2-4!
The Knicks' lineup is much better than the Heat's back then!
Before G3 started, Durant came to see Lin Ying.
The Knicks are now at a disadvantage. It will be interesting to go to Madison to watch the Finals.
But Durant looked a little sad when he came this time.
After asking around, I found out that it turned out that Harden's contract renewal situation was not going well.
The free market in July has not yet arrived, but the connection between players and teams is actually always there.
The NBA controls this aspect very strictly, and has punished many people for this matter in history.
But that's actually useless.
For example, because the general manager of a team has a good personal relationship with a certain player, shouldn't he be able to have dinner together?
Who knows if they have negotiated a contract.
Lin Ying also recalled that this year in history, Harden broke down with the Thunder over contract renewal and was sent to the Rockets.
It's just that the possibility of Harden going to the Rockets is not high now.
First, the Rockets' first-round pick is valuable, and second, they don't have Martin's bargaining chip that the Thunder are interested in.
According to what Durant said, Harden still has to leave the team, but it may be to change places.
Lin Ying just said a few words of comfort and didn't offer any advice.
First, the Thunder management probably won't listen to Durant, and second, Harden staying in the Thunder may not be a good thing.
Lu Bu's words are quite right. A man who lives in heaven and earth can't live in depression for a long time.
If you want to create some achievements in the NBA, how can you get ahead by playing sixth man all the time?
Of course this is just a small episode.
They had arrived in Madison while chatting.
This time Scarlett and Swift were busy with their own affairs and did not come together. They sat in the middle and watched the game.
But even though they kept a low profile, they were still discovered early by the photographers at the scene.
One is really handsome and the other is handsome, they are really too eye-catching among the crowd.
"Do you think it'll be a sweep?"
Durant pretended not to see the camera and turned to chat with Lin Ying.
"Disaster."
Lin Ying said one word.
Although because of the decision, Stern no longer treats James as highly as before.
But the ratings of the finals are still very important.
The two previous times James was swept by the Cavaliers had a certain amount of chance involved.
As long as the Cavaliers have a reliable helper, James will not be so miserable.
The Knicks have two reliable helpers.
Sure enough, after the game started, the referee's whistle was very obvious.
This is "Stern's Sanction".
If the Mavericks want to win this game, they must do 5 versus 8.
Nowitzki was whistled for two fouls early in the first quarter and his face was extremely ugly.
No need to guess, the picture that comes to his mind at this moment must be the scene when he played against the Heat 6 years ago.
Going round and round, like reincarnation.
But fortunately, the referees did not exaggerate too much. After all, if it goes too far, the league will be criticized miserably.
So after Nowitzki went down, Yao Ming had a whistle.
Then, the Knicks failed to widen the point difference...
[I gave you a chance but you didn’t use it]
This is not a problem with James or anyone else, but simply a problem of lineup restraint.
The Knicks' defense basically relies on one-man defense on the perimeter, and they will definitely have an advantage against the Lakers.
But when faced with a team with a strong inside line, as mentioned before, Bynum and Hibbert both played like the league's top centers.
Then they met the true No. 1 center in the league.
This is really like when the Mavericks were beaten by the Warriors and restrained to death.
Well, it was Liang Jingru who gave those fans the courage to think that the Knicks could replicate the Heat's 4-2 comeback to win the championship.
What to do?
Then blow it!
Nowitzki couldn't reach out at all on the court. He was originally a defensive weakness and directly sank into a defensive black hole.
So unlike the previous two games where the Mavericks clearly had the advantage, in this game both sides played an evenly matched offensive battle.
"This is too dark!"
Not long after the decisive moment of the fourth quarter, when Nowitzki left the game due to his sixth foul, Durant couldn't help but speak.
On the court, Nowitzki threw a towel in frustration after being sent off!
Lin Ying coughed.
There is actually no way around this.
First, Nowitzki himself is not good at defense and is easily targeted;
Second, if you don’t brag like this, the Mavericks will win!
If you just brag like this, you may blow Nowitzki's FMVP!
But something unexpected happened again.
After Nowitzki was sent off, not only did the Mavericks not collapse, but they became more and more courageous!
In ancient times, throwing a cup was used as a trumpet, but today, throwing a towel is used as a trumpet for counterattack!
With Yao Ming's strong attack in the paint, the Mavericks can shoot more from the outside!
This immediately confused Durant.
Are the Mavericks that strong?
eager.
Lin Ying saw that familiar thing again.
This season they just want to win the championship, no matter who they play, no matter how many of the five are playing!
Champions, they only want champions!
At the beginning, the Knicks were still resisting hard, but slowly, that resistance was defeated by the Mavericks' offensive.
Even James' mentality fluctuated, and he couldn't break into the Mavericks' inside line.
As for outside shooting, after the mentality fluctuates, the more you cast, the less likely it is!
Historically, the Rockets have made 0 of 26 three-pointers. Are they really their cup of tea?
How is that possible!
That Magic Ball team was the only team in the league that could rival the Warriors in three-point shooting that season!
Mentality, really is the mentality!
The Mavericks' desire, and then the desire to play, flooded the Knicks like a tidal wave.
Lin Ying came to a conclusion after seeing it.
Even if he is on the Knicks now, it will be difficult for him to beat the Mavericks.
This is no longer just a matter of strength!
105 to 101!
The Mavericks were trailing by 12 points at most, but they finally completed the comeback and took a 3-0 lead!
To be continued...
