The final was well advertised, flyers were everywhere throughout New York, and tickets sold out early.

On the poster, the Knicks crew advertises the fourth crown. Some people on the Internet also found a video of Zhou Xuan's interview when he won the championship last season.

On a similar day, it was also June, and the Knicks launched another attack on the championship. Now Zhou Xuan can't keep a low profile even if he wants to. Modest, people will only say that he "pretends".

In the last training session before the game, Zhou Xuan was interviewed by Chinese reporters.

The reporter asked him to talk about his thoughts and secrets of surpassing 72 wins in both seasons.

Zhou Xuan said: "My goal is not to surpass anyone, but to win every game, and this is the secret of my success." If I can win all the races, I will naturally outperform everyone. ”

The reporter said: "Now you are the object that many people want to catch up with. Jabari Parker said that he will aim to beat you in the future, will you feel the pressure? ”

Zhou Xuan said lightly: "There is pressure to be motivated." If I win comfortably every time, what's the point? The best part of the game is watching the competition. I miss the feeling of scoring a lot of goals in a season. Now we're too strong, we don't have a chance to kill and the fans will have less fun. ”

He didn't seem to take the Clippers to heart at all, and he looked like a master and lonely. Journalists love to hear these things the most, and they give people confidence in the Knicks' future.

The Clippers players were much more low-key in the interview, only saying that they would fight with all their might, and after watching the interview, the Knicks players had the upper hand psychologically. Of course, they won't let that stop.

On June 4, the first battle between the two sides began.

CCTV5 not only predicted the winner or loser before the game, but also predicted Zhou Xuan's number.

Zhang said: "When Zhou Xuan defeated the Clippers to win the championship last season, he averaged a record of nearly 20 assists per game, and the Clippers had no way to defend his passing, so I don't know what to do this time." ”

Yu Jia said: "The Clippers have definitely been working on this question for the past few days, and today we know the answer." ”

There were many star fans in the audience, "Avengers 2" was released, and several stars went to the home stadium to watch the game and greeted Zhou Xuan. He likes science fiction movies and knows these guys well.

Marvel also arranged a role for Zhou Xuan, not a superhero, but a short cameo, which officially started with "Avengers 2".

This is "forgive me for my life of bohemian and uninhibited love cameo" Stan Lee old man mentioned yì. For Marvel fans, he is a constant "easter egg" in superhero movies. If Zhou Xuan makes a few cameo appearances in each movie, it will definitely make fans feel more interesting. There are only a few seconds of scenes, which will not delay Zhou Xuan to play basketball, and the filming location is still in New York.

Chloe Moretz and Zhou Xuan's parents also arrived at the scene, very close to the location of Donnie and the others, and the city was lined up, becoming a beautiful landscape.

Knicks starters: Zhou Xuan, Leonard, Parsons, Bosh, Jefferson.

Clippers starters: Paul, Redick, Smith, Griffin, Jordan Jr.

Jordan Jr. jumped the ball to win and the game began.

Griffin gave Redick off-ball cover on the side, and Jordan Jr. in the middle pulled out to cover Paul and block Zhou Xuan. Paul misplaced the ball for Bosh and gave it to Redick, who ran to shake off Leonard.

Jefferson defended it, Redick received the ball and broke through the middle, one step past Jefferson, and a pull-up jump shot near the free throw line. 0 to 2.

The Knicks attacked, both inside lines went to the side to cover, helping teammates run on the perimeter, and Zhou Xuan in the middle played against Paul. The Clippers also changed their defenses in time, and last year they suffered a loss of running back, allowing the Knicks to shoot a lot of three-pointers.

Zhou Xuan continued to dribble under his hips, took a step to the right, turned his head to look at Leonard, who was running to 60 degrees on the right side, but the ball was thrown high to the basket.

At the same time as the two were misplaced, Griffin followed Leonard, Bosh squeezed through Redick's air cut, Jordan Jr. couldn't retract, and Bosh scored with both hands to dunk the basketball. 2 to 2.

The Clippers attacked, or Redick's counterrun, singled out Jefferson, dribbled back under the crotch to open up a little distance, stepped back to jump, and the ball hollowed into the net. 2 to 4.

Jefferson's defense is not very good, and he can't change defenses yet, otherwise Redick will be able to shoot when he catches the ball, and he is averaging 15 per game this season. 2 points, 42 three-point shooting. 4%。 As a well-known pitcher in the league, Redick played a strong role in the Clippers system.

Clippers coach Doc Rivers applauded his disciples on the sidelines. He is a person who is good at learning from experience, and he has taken a lot of powerful tactics that the Clippers are not good at defending, and used them in the game, he always believes that what Zhou Xuan can do, Paul can also do.

The Knicks attacked, Zhou Xuan asked his teammates to pull away, and Jefferson blocked Parsons on the bottom line, helping him get rid of Smith and run to the right side. Smith chased very fast, Jordan Jr. didn't go out of the basket, Zhou Xuan dribbled the ball to the left side, jumped up and sent the ball to the middle during the run.

Jefferson squeezed Jordan Jr. deep into the basket, took the ball and turned around, forcing the opponent to throw the ball in. Little Jordan was crushed and didn't jump. 4 to 4.

Zhang Reasonable said: "Zhou Xuan assisted his teammates twice in a row, Paul's biggest drawback is his height, no matter how close he is, Zhou Xuan can pass the ball out of his head with a toe or a slight jump." ”

Yu Jia said: "The Clippers' offense is not bad, let's see if we can prevent it this time." ”

This time, the Knicks changed the defense, and Leonard and others did not follow others. There are only two guards on the Clippers who are sure of three-point shooting, and it is not convenient for these two to reach the bottom line, otherwise they will be counterattacked once they miss the shot.

Paul and Griffin played blocking and dismantling, Bosh changed defenses, the ball crossed to the middle, and Griffin faced Zhou Xuan. He slammed his back into Zhou Xuan and turned to the left, although Zhou Xuan was not knocked away by his elbow in time, he also lost his position, and Griffin jumped the ball in. 4 to 6.

If it weren't for the Knicks' scoring too much, the Clippers might have become the league's favorites, averaging second-best points per game this season. Except for Guan Erye's sense of being better than Liu Boss, who is good at crying nose, any second child is easy to ignore.

The Knicks attacked, and Zhou Xuan organized in the high post to face Paul. The side player covered, the little Jordan on the left was slow to change the defense, Jefferson was not good at defending alone, he didn't dare to lean too far out, this time there was a vacancy, Zhou Xuan passed the ball to Parsons on the left, it was still a high ball. Even if it was a sideways pass, he didn't give Paul any chance to make a steal. With a slight toe tilt, the ball is fast.

Parsons received the ball and made a quick stop and scored a three-pointer. Smith chased quickly, but could only jump to interfere. 7 to 6.

When he returned to defense, Zhou Xuan gave Parsons a thumbs up expressionlessly. He's very proud, he's found a knack for assists, as long as his teammates can shoot, and he's a short guy defending himself, he has a way to keep sending assists, and Paul definitely can't stop him.

The Clippers attacked, Paul and Jordan Jr. blocked and dismantled, Zhou Xuan chased and Jefferson formed a package, Paul could only pass the ball to the side, and Redick was caught up by Leonard.

This is the gap between Paul and Zhou Xuan, they all know where to pass, Zhou Xuan grasped the timing just right, accurate to 0.01 second, teammates can shoot when they receive the ball. Paul sometimes passes a little slower, and the defender bypasses the screener to catch up, and there is no good opportunity for direct shooting and misalignment.

Redick passes to Griffin, who singles out Jefferson and punches inside, Bosh backs down, and the two big men clamp Griffin under the basket and force him to pass. Jordan Jr. couldn't attract the defense on the outside and was let go.

Griffin made a mistake looking for Paul, Zhou Xuan reached out and poked lightly from the side, touched the basketball, turned around and ran to the front court. With just one glance, he could see that Parsons would receive the ball before Smith.

The two chased basketball together, and Smith was one step away.

Parsons received the ball and threw it to the front court, Zhou Xuan threw away Paul with a single fast break, the two had similar speeds, Paul couldn't catch up, and Zhou Xuan scored in basketball. 9 to 6.

The Clippers attacked, Jordan Jr. immediately cut inside after blocking and dismantling, Bosh blocked Paul's breakthrough route, and Jefferson retreated. Paul habitually glanced at the side, and after Griffin gave Redick off-ball cover, Zhou Xuan switched defenses to block Redick. Leonard went to defend Griffin, misplaced, but kept someone in front of him defending.

Paul dribbled under his crotch to the bottom line, distanced himself from Bosh, stepped back and made a jumper, and popped out of the frame under interference, Jefferson stuck Jordan Jr. and grabbed the backcourt rebound, and Zhou Xuan went down quickly.

This is the most hated situation for the Clippers, Paul is obviously the attacking side, too far away from Zhou Xuan but can't, it is easy to be thrown away and counterattack.

Jefferson passed, Zhou Xuan faced Redick, took the ball and turned to receive the dribble behind the back, Redicla fouled, this foul was very timely. Zhou Xuan had already seen Leonard in the process of turning, the latter was ahead of Griffin in speed, and he could go to the basket directly after receiving the pass.

Parsons sent a throw-in, Zhou Xuan got rid of Paul under the cover of Bosh, jumped to get rid of Griffin, jumped up in a quick stop inside the three-point line on the right side, and Griffin jumped on the side to block.

Zhou Xuan jumped in the air, half-turned and sent the ball to the middle, the speed was not fast, it was a high ball. Bosh turned and took a step just enough to reach a high jumper. Paul was squeezed to the side, and there was nothing he could do, and the ball hollowed into the net. 11 to 6. Zhou Xuan had his fourth assist.

The Clippers attacked, Bosh defended Paul again, the latter crossed to Griffin, Zhou Xuan opened a step and a half distance, put Griffin to shoot, and prevented the breakthrough, so it was better than the muscles being squeezed away by him. Griffin glanced at the frame, holding the ball with both hands and shaking it, and Zhou Xuan didn't step forward. Griffin makes a jumper and the ball misses.

Griffin is not Bosh after all, his mid-range shooting is better than before, with a shooting rate of about forty percent, and he can't score every time. Bosh retracted, and Jefferson Karen helped him get the rebound.

Zhou Xuan retreated to get the ball and fell into the battle.

Two big men cover off the ball on the side. Zhou Xuan took the ball and dribbled under his crotch, and suddenly pulled it up in the middle and threw it, Paul's center of gravity lowered, and he jumped a little slower, and he didn't cover it. The ball bounces into the frame.

14 to 6, Zhou Xuan's personal 5th point.

In the opening three minutes, the Knicks hit six consecutive shots, and the Clippers still couldn't do anything, and Rivers asked for an early timeout.
