NBA Headquarters, New York.

David? Stern took a sip of coffee and said to Vice President Adam? Silva said: "In the seventh game, we must make sure that the referee does not take sides, and there is never a situation like last season's finals, which is about the reputation of the league. ”

Silva nodded: "I understand, everything depends on the strength of both sides, which team do you think will win?" ”

"Nix. It's not that I want to see the Knicks advance, it's that they get better and better, and the Heat players have a lot of psychological pressure than the Knicks players. Stern said lightly: "The Knicks have good coaches, good players, and a smart core, and they can adjust in a favorable direction." LeBron? James has never proven himself to be responsible in crunch time, and he is always lost when the team needs him most. ”

"I feel the same way, and James's personality is really disappointing."

In the 2007 Finals, the 2008 and 2009 playoffs, and the 2010 Finals, James was always disappointing, and at first he didn't have good teammates, only crab steps, and people could forgive him. Later, there were Mo Williams, Yao Ming, and Jamison, and there were no teammates to deceive the ghosts. And he actually ran to Miami when the Cavaliers were willing to build a lineup with him as the core, disgusting a group of people.

Yao Ming jumped out of the contract, the Cavaliers can vacate salary space as long as they don't keep anyone, and with James as the signboard, they can completely bring in a good helper. Jamison is a very strong veteran, and after the contract expires, he can renew the Cavaliers with a low salary, or he can free up salary space, it can be said that the Cavaliers will be a very competitive team in the past few years, even if it is not good this season, it will rise next year. James still chose to leave, not at all responsible. Cavaliers fans were so angry that they burned their jerseys.

In contrast, Zhou Xuan has brought the Knicks back into the spotlight, and he also has super popularity in New York, which can compete with the Los Angeles Lakers, which is a win-win situation.

The only thing Stern regrets is that the Lakers are also starting to decline. As soon as "Zen Master" Jackson leaves, I don't know what will happen to Lu Dao next season, otherwise New York VS Los Angeles will definitely attract attention.

In the fateful seventh game, fans gathered outside the arena as early as two hours before the start of the game. Many people wore Zhou Xuan's No. 99 jersey, and it was like a festival for fans.

Many celebrities in the entertainment industry also came to New York to join in the excitement and booked a front-row seat, which was a good opportunity to increase exposure. American country music diva Taylor? Swift said in an interview that he wanted to write songs for Zhou Xuan.

Zhou Xuan complimented Taylor a few words after knowing it, and a Chinese fan immediately reminded him on the Internet: "Don't let the fox girl (Taylor gave birth to two fox eyes) write songs, it means that she is going to break up with you." ”

Taylor likes to write songs about his romance, and it is said that he has a boyfriend who has a nervous breakdown because of it. Of course, this is just a joke, Zhou Xuan and Taylor have no intersection at all.

Also, there are attentive fans who found Scarlett? Johnson also went to the home stadium to watch the game and chatted with Zhou Xuan, and it was also rumored that Zhou Xuan went to the crew to visit Scarlett. Although later it was taken by Robert Jr.? Downey overturned the scandal, and many people still feel that these two people have an inside story to dig up. Especially when the two have to make movies together in the summer.

Emma? Watson is making a movie, he hasn't been to the Knicks' home court in the playoffs, and there are some rumors of a relationship between the two. Zhou Xuan made a special clarification that Emma just doesn't like basketball.

In short, this time the Knicks' home atmosphere is unprecedentedly high, full of gimmicks.

The Knicks haven't made it to the Finals since 1998. Interestingly, that playoff game was made to the Finals with Ewing injured and was also a case where they were not favored along the way, and the Knicks seem to have a tradition of upsets.

A reporter interviewed Zhou Xuan before the game. It was a blonde female reporter, good-looking, named Fiona, who asked, "Stephen, are you confident that you will win today?" ”

'Of course I have confidence, I don't want the first three games to just work hard to improve the experience of the players. We're going to get to the final and win the championship. Zhou Xuan smiled.

"You're always confident, can you ask what your secret is?"

"I love basketball, it's not a secret, if you want to be successful, you have to do what you love, what you love. Only by pouring enthusiasm can we achieve the ultimate. Zhou Xuan smiled: "In addition, I think no matter what you do, you must believe that you can do well, many people say that Chinese physical fitness is not good, it seems that if you are not a black player, you can't play the NBA, but the success of Nash and Nowitzki has long proved that basketball is not the world of American players." They can do it, and so can I. ”

didn't put on a show, Zhou Xuan appeared in the finale and high-fived his teammates one by one. The fans cheered together.

CCTV5 Su Qun said: "Finally came to the key battle, before that, it is estimated that not many people would guess that the Knicks would use such a way to fight the Heat to the seventh game." It was a significant tie-break. ”

Yang Jian said: "Many Chinese fans said that Zhou Xuan single-handedly led the team to the seventh game. Zhou Xuan himself didn't like this argument very much, and in an exclusive interview with a special reporter, he still attributed everything to the team's credit, and he was just one of them. It's true that the Knicks play as a team, especially on the offensive end, and everyone knows what they have to do. ”

Su Qun said: "This season, the Knicks have two good assistant coaches, which is also an important factor in achieving a breakthrough in the record. D'Antoni excelled offensively, with defensive changes largely due to Woodson and Malone, with the three Mikes complementing each other at work. In contrast, Spoelstra is too young, and the Heat's coaching staff is not as experienced as the Knicks, and they rely too much on the Big Three. ”

On TNT's side, Barkley smiled: "If the Heat win, the Big Three will reach the Finals in their first season together, and this season will be relatively successful." It's just that their way may make more stars form a team, otherwise it will be difficult to win the championship. If the Knicks win, their names will go down in history again. ”

Smith smiled: "Zhou Xuan has won the youngest MVP in his first year with the Knicks, and he seems to have been born to break records." ”

The two starters stood on the court, and the Knicks had five: Zhou Xuan, Andre Miller, Matthews, Gallinari, and Stoudamire.

Heat five: Chalmers, Wade, James, Mike Miller, Bosh.

The small-ball tactics tasted the sweetness, and Pekovic and Anderson played in the second quarter, which can also ensure offensive firepower. The Heat calculated this and directly sent a pitcher to play small-ball tactics.

Wade stared at Zhou Xuan, he didn't want to lose in a humiliating way, he had to guard against everything he said this time. Zhou Xuan's eyes were still light, thinking about how to give full play to the strength of his teammates.

The game got on, with Stadameyer winning on a jumper and the Knicks attacking first.

Wade defended closely, Andre Miller controlled the ball, Zhou Xuan and Gallinari ran to the left side without the ball, Matthews and Stoudeyer covered the run in the bottom corner, rushed from the left side to the right side, and vacated the left side. This kind of Hawks offensive run Knicks play every game and open up space.

After Matthews got rid of it, Bosh immediately switched positions and let James guard the basket.

Mike Miller followed Zhou Xuan and stayed on the left side, and Andre Miller passed the ball to the middle.

Gallinari misplaced Wade, withdrew from the three-point line after receiving the ball, and made a dry jumper, Wade jumped up to interfere and went in, and the three-pointer went in. 3 to 0.

The whole stadium cheered together, and judging from the previous games, the role players played too much.

The Heat attack, James arc top organization, Matthews main defense. Matthews was tortured by James a lot, the coaching staff still trusted him, and there was no better choice in the team.

Wade and Bosh blocked in the middle and broke through to the inside. Stoudeyer changed defense, Wade took the ball and changed direction, and the pull-up jump shot scored. 3 to 2.

Basketball is a team sport, and offense needs to be coordinated, especially on the defensive end. But as soon as Wade broke through, there was no one on the Knicks side to help defend, and Stoudeyer's single defense ability was also very average. Interior defense has always been their biggest flaw.

The Knicks attacked, and Zhou Xuan and Gallinari blocked and coordinated as soon as they passed the half, attracting James to switch defenses and pass the ball to Gallinari.

The Italian won the ball on the right side, and Matthews again covered the ball with Stoudemire and ran into the bottom right corner.

Bosh went out again, and Gallinari hoisted it high to Stadameyer in the low post. Smalls singled out Mike Miller, squeezed a step, and scored a cricket kick without waiting for Bosh to come up. 5 to 2.

Kenny? Smith saw through the Knicks' strategy. "In the opening game, Zhou Xuan's running position attracted the defense, but the main attack was his teammates. The Heat didn't dare to let Zhou Xuan go. ”

Barkley said: "I think the point that Spoelstra emphasized is that there must be someone in front of Zhou Xuan, and the off-ball cover can be changed quickly, so it will be difficult for the Heat to help defend under the basket." ”

If James keeps the low post, then Mike Miller has to defend against it, and a misalignment is easy to form a situation where Zhou Xuan singles out Miller on the weak side. James and Zhou Xuan, as long as the baseline is not covered by the ball, Miller can't defend Stadameyer under the basket. Defensively, the Heat's small-ball tactics weren't successful.

The Heat attacked, James broke through the middle, and the Knicks compressed the defense. James split the ball, Wade got a chance from beyond the three-point line, and made a jumper. During training, he and James both focused on three points, and the shot was very resolute, and Zhou Xuan was blocked and didn't even jump.

It's a pity that the 30% shooting rate is a bit insufficient, and Wade's first shot ended in iron. Stoudeyer won the rebound in the backcourt, and Zhou Xuan retreated to receive the ball.

ESPN Van Gundy sighed: "If Wade could be more accurate on the outside, he would be a near-perfect player." Today, the Knicks started with a compression of the defense. ”

"Magic" Johnson said: "The Heat also know that they need three points to win. In the last three games, they can't shoot from the outside, and when they are on the pitcher, the Knicks will guard the perimeter again. The lack of low-post offense is the Heat's Achilles' heel. They can't solve this problem. ”

Van Gundy smiled: "The Knicks are all people who can shoot, even if Zhou Xuan doesn't catch the ball on the weak side, they have someone who can attack." If the Knicks are on the fence, I think it's likely that a new record will be set today. ”
