Chapter 183 Eliminate the Knicks

New York, Madison Square Garden Arena.

The game was still going on, and it was only in the third quarter, but most of the fans on the court had already left.

The reason is simple, these fans who came to support the home team have been completely disappointed.

With a 0:3 deficit, the Knicks have basically been eliminated from the playoffs, and this fourth game will also be a battle for the Knicks to defend their dignity.

Whether we can win a game and leave with dignity, or whether we can be swept 4:0 and completely lose our face, depends on the game.

However, the fans who had high hopes that the Knicks could win this game were completely disappointed in only two and a half quarters.

The Knicks trailed by 6 points at the end of the first quarter, trailed by 18 points at the end of the second quarter, and so far in the third quarter, the Knicks have trailed by 26 points at home.

No matter how confident the fans are in this team, they will not believe that the Knicks can stage a desperate counterattack in the next ten minutes or so.

More and more fans stood up and left the arena in disappointment, leaving Madison Square Garden, which could seat nearly 20,000 people, empty.

The home fans left the game early, which was undoubtedly another blow to the Knicks' already weak momentum.

Seeing Anthony, Stoudemire and others on the court looking a little distracted and unwilling to fight, Knicks head coach D'Antoni could only sigh.

When Curry hit his seventh three-pointer of the game, the point difference between the two teams officially widened to 30 points.

Instead of struggling, D'Antoni replaced the entire bench and announced that he would give up the game in advance.

When Wang Xiao saw this situation, he naturally would not add insult to injury, and took advantage of the situation and replaced all the main players here.

The substitutes of both teams kept their numbers in the final quarter until the end of the game.

"it is finally over."

The commentator couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, and then said in a heavier tone: "Unfortunately, the miracle did not happen. The Knicks are still unable to prevent the fate of being swept at their home court, but the existence of the Big Three represents infinite

There is a possibility that they have too little time to know each other this season. We have every reason to believe that next season will be the stage for them to show their true strength."

"At the same time, let us also congratulate the Wizards for successfully advancing to the conference semifinals. There is no doubt that they are indeed a strong team..."

At the press conference after the game, Wang Xiao said some official polite words as usual.

For example, although the team won the game, the strength of the Knicks' Big Three still frightened him... This team will become the most terrifying opponent next season...

All in all, even if you win, you won't be embarrassed, keep your tail between your legs, and don't do anything that would ruin your character.

Wang Xiao's proactive provocation before and after the game can only happen in a game against the Heat. It is purely a personal grudge.



After defeating the Knicks 4:0, Wang Xiao got nearly a week's rest as he wished.

Why a week? Because with the end of 4 games, the Eastern Conference's current position is as follows.

Wizards 4:0 Knicks.

Bulls 2:2 Nets.

Heat 3:1 Hawks.

Celtics 3:1 Magic.

Except for the Wizards, the other three groups of matchups will require at least one or more games to determine the winner. The Wizards' opponent in the next round will be the winner of the Celtics and Magic, or the winner.

, should be the Celtics.

The Celtics, who are already leading 3:1, have a probability of winning as high as 90%. No one is optimistic about Howard playing alone.

Among these four matchups, the most surprising one was not the Wizards who swept the Big Three of the Knicks 4:0, but the Nets who fought the Bulls to a 2:2 tie.

Although Rose suffered several defeats against Jeremy Lin during the regular season, the Bulls, which won 60 games, are still recognized as one of the strongest teams in the league. They are ranked seventh in the Eastern Conference and have a winning rate of 50%.

Not on the same level at all.

But the actual result was that at the Bulls' home court, the Nets lost two games and returned to New Jersey with a 2:0 score. Under the leadership of Jeremy Lin, they actually pulled back two games in a row to tie the score.

Pulled back to a 2:2 tie.

In these four games, Jeremy Lin, who averaged 21 points, 12 assists, 6.5 rebounds and 3 steals per game, performed perfectly.

On the other side, although Rose, the core of the Bulls, averaged 23 points and 6 assists per game, his shooting percentage was only 39%, and he averaged about 4 turnovers per game.

Obviously, Rose once again lost in the duel with Jeremy Lin.

However, it seems that the Bulls still have the advantage. After all, there is a big gap between the Nets and the Bulls in other positions. If nothing else happens, the Nets will still be defeated by the Bulls.



Wang Xiao watched the game between the Bulls and Nets on live TV.

When he saw Jeremy Lin showing off his prowess in the playoffs, Wang Xiao was happy on the one hand, but on the other hand, he felt a slight thump in his heart.

He found that in these four games, Jeremy Lin played too hard, playing nearly 40 minutes in almost every game.

This is not a good sign.

For players with outstanding physical fitness like James and Kobe, it is not difficult to play 40 minutes or even the entire game.

But for the weak physical fitness of Asians, such high-intensity competition is likely to cause a huge burden on the body.

In another time and space, Jeremy Lin often suffered from injuries, and high-intensity games could easily cause his body to suffer from physical problems.

Although the current Jeremy Lin's playing style is more like Kidd's floor style, relying on the overall situation, awareness and skills to play, the possibility of injury has been reduced a lot, but he is not completely immune to injuries.

Wang Xiao is not sure about the effect of player growth template cards on physical fitness or physical strength.

If Jeremy Lin also inherits Kidd's physical strength, then there is no need to worry. Although Kidd is a floor player, his physique is rare among point guards. He has rarely been troubled by injuries in his career.

.

However, if the growth template card does not take into account these aspects, it will be a bit troublesome.

Wang Xiao tried asking the system about this issue, but did not get an answer.

To be on the safe side, he still called Jeremy Lin and gave him some advice.

Wang Xiao doesn't want Rose to be ruined by injuries, and he doesn't want Jeremy Lin, a player he personally trained, to have his glorious career ruined because of injuries.

Jeremy Lin was a little confused about Wang Xiao's inexplicable call, but Wang Xiao solemnly told him to keep it in mind. After all, in Jeremy Lin's heart, Wang Xiao is his most important mentor, even if he is the current head coach of the Nets
