The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 186 Eliminate the Knicks

New York, Madison Square Garden.

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

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

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

Whether they can win a decent game and leave, or be swept away by 4:0 and lose all face, it depends on the game.

However, the fans who were hoping that the Knicks could win the game were completely disappointed after only two and a half quarters.

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

Even fans who have confidence in this team will not believe that in the next ten minutes or so, the Knicks can stage a Jedi counterattack.

More and more fans stood up and left the arena in disappointment, which made Madison Square Garden, which can accommodate nearly 20,000 people, empty.

The home fans left the field early, which is undoubtedly another blow to the Knicks' already not very strong momentum.

Seeing that Anthony, Stoudemire and others were a little absent-minded and unwilling to fight, Knicks coach D'Antoni could only sigh.

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

D'Antoni was not struggling, but replaced all the bench lineup and announced his abandonment of the game in advance.

Seeing this situation, Wang Xiao naturally wouldn't make trouble, and took advantage of the situation to replace all the main players here.

The substitutes of the two teams collected their statistics tepidly 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 heavy tone: "Unfortunately, the miracle did not happen. The Knicks are still destined to be swept away at their home court, but the existence of the Big Three represents infinite There is no possibility that they know each other too little this season, and we have every reason to believe that next season will be the stage for them to show their true strengths."

"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... Next season, this team will become the most terrifying opponent...

All in all, even if you win, don't be embarrassed, be a man with your tail between your legs, and don't do things that ruin your character.

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

...

The Knicks were eliminated 4:0, and Wang Xiao got nearly a week of rest time as he wished.

Why is it a week? Because with 4 games over, the East Division's possession is currently as follows.

Wizards 4:0 Knicks.

Bulls 2:2 Nets.

Heat 3:1 Eagles.

Celtics 3:1 Magic.

Except for the Wizards, the other three matchups will require at least one or more games to decide the outcome, and the next round opponent of the Wizards will be the winner of the Celtics and Magic, or , It should be the Celtics.

The Celtics, which have already led 3:1, have a 90% chance of winning. No one is optimistic about Howard, who is fighting alone.

In these four matchups, the most surprising thing is not the Wizards who swept the Knicks Big Three 4:0, but the Nets who fought the Bulls to a 2:2 tie.

Although Rose faced Jeremy Lin several times during the regular season, the Bulls, which won 60 wins, are still recognized as one of the strongest teams in the league. They are ranked seventh in the Eastern Conference and have a winning percentage of 50%. Not on the same level at all.

But the actual result is that at the home court of the Bulls, the Nets lost two games and returned to New Jersey with a score of 2:0. 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, 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.

But for now, 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 there is no accident, the Nets will still be defeated by the Bulls.

...

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

When seeing Jeremy Lin showing his prowess in the playoffs, Wang Xiao was delighted on the one hand, but on the other hand, his heart skipped a beat.

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 play the whole game.

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

In another time and space, Jeremy Lin often suffered from constant injuries after that, and high-intensity games could easily cause his body to malfunction.

Now Jeremy Lin, although his playing style is more inclined to Kidd's floor flow, relying on the overall situation, awareness and technique to play, the possibility of injury has been greatly reduced, but it is not completely immune to injury.

Wang Xiao is not very clear about the effect of the player growth template card on physical fitness or physical strength.

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

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

Wang Xiao tried to ask the system about this, but he didn't get an answer.

To be on the safe side, he still called Jeremy Lin and told him.

Wang Xiao didn't want Rose to be ruined by injuries, and he didn't want Jeremy Lin, a player he trained by himself, to ruin his brilliant career because of injuries.

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