As Mo Xi thought, the 76ers relied on Iverson's super scoring ability to win a game, but once the Knicks adopted a more targeted and tougher defense against Iverson, Iverson couldn't play that kind of explosive game.

Iverson was limited to 24 points in Game 4, which also led to the 76ers not being able to break through the Knicks' steel defense. In the face of the Knicks' suffocating defense, and Mutombo couldn't limit Mo Xi well, coupled with the Knicks' many scoring points, on the territory of Philadelphia, the Knicks unexpectedly but unexpectedly won the fourth game. He had 28 points, 11 rebounds, 7 assists and 1 block, and almost had another triple-double in the playoffs. Sprell was solid, scoring 21 points, Houston had 18 and Arenas played 30 minutes and also scored 18 points.

The Knicks' offense is not so much a model of team offense as a multi-point blossom formed because the single point is too strong.

The 76ers were cornered, and even more unfortunately, the next crucial game was played at Madison Square Garden in New York.

Once again, the black-clad assassins came to New York in the midst of everyone's disapproval. The last time something like this happened was in Los Angeles, from Los Angeles to New York, from West to East, and if the 76ers win, that's a beautiful thing.

But the premise of all this is based on the 76ers winning.

It's a battle between a traditional center against a defender of a new era.

Mo Xi and Iverson had a wonderful matchup, although the two were in different positions and did not have a direct offensive and defensive matchup, but the fans still watched heartily, which was a few points better than the All-Star.

In the first quarter, the two began to exert their strength, Mo Xi cut 11 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, and Iverson scored 14 points and 1 assist; In the second quarter, both men were a little restrained, scoring 7 points each; In the third quarter, the two began to strengthen the firepower of the confrontation, and played most of the quarter, Mo Xi scored 15 points, and Iverson scored 12 points.

However, at this time, the gap between the Knicks and the 76ers gradually revealed, except for Iverson, the 76ers no one scored a double-double at the moment, although Snow, McGee and Mutombo were either eight or nine points, but they could not match the state of full bloom on the opposite side. The 76ers trailed by eight points after three quarters, and although there was still one quarter to go, it was clear that the 76ers were only half a foot away from death.

In the fourth quarter, Mo Xi and Iverson both chose to play directly without resting, one of the two needed to be strong, and the other needed to stabilize the morale of the army, and the rhythm on the court was also moving towards a scene that no one expected.

This is really a very exciting fourth quarter, Mo Xi showed his unparalleled low post back body skills in these twelve minutes, Rao is Mutombo was also deeply shocked, Mo Xi and O'Neal can be said to be the most classic center representatives, the skills of the two are difficult even for ordinary defenders, although O'Neal's shooting is a little watery, and the biggest difference between these two people is that O'Neal is the most typical power center, and Mo Xi, although he also has good strength, excellent technology, But it is not a power or skill center, but a new style of play, a speed center.

It's not that Mo Xi is fast enough, it's just that Mo Xi's reaction is fast enough. One turn, one inward, one backward...... Mo Xi's movements are extremely fast, even if Mutombo can keep up with the first wave of offensives, then Mo Xi can make the next round before Mutombo reacts, the next round of attack, using his reflexes far beyond ordinary people, Mo Xi really developed his own offensive style, resolute and decisive, sometimes strong and sinking like Shu Dao to open the way, or like red leaves falling into the water.

Mo Xi's performance is dizzying, but if the Knicks want to win, it depends more on the performance of others, which is what Iverson never expected, at a critical moment, the Knicks' outside firepower exploded in an all-round way.

"Houston was again receiving the ball from beyond the three-point line, and in the face of Aaron McGee, he shot straight away! Again, his second three-pointer in the fourth quarter......

With the help of Thomas's cover, Sprell switched positions with Houston, and regretted a magical back pass, Sprewell took a step outside the three-point line after receiving the ball and pulled it directly, which was the third three-pointer he hit in this game!

The Knicks are going crazy, especially in this last quarter, they don't play like the iron-blooded Knicks in my impression, but like the sho time of the year, ah, of course, they are also from the same school. ”

The commentator frantically commented on the game, constantly complaining, in the fourth quarter, the Knicks seemed to be playing a 2k game, the team's shooting rate was as high as 60%, and several outside players frequently hit three-pointers.

Iverson felt a little confused, could all this be arranged by fate?

Mo Xi came to the corner position to receive the ball, after receiving the ball, he directly half turned to the side of Mutombo, held the ball in one hand, and then smashed it hard, with the same dribbling action as a guard, directly shook off Mutombo, and then a 76ers player who turned around and opened the defense, Mo Xi was empty in front of him at the moment, leaving only a basket.

At this time, Mo Xi gave up the way to finish the offense with an easy attack on the basket, and instead jumped directly to Houston, who had already been ambushed in the bottom corner.

As a mid-range shooter, the corner three-pointers are no different from the average two-point in Houston's eyes.

Houston made a decisive shot and hit another three-point shot.

With two minutes left in the game, the 76ers trailed by 18 points, and Van Gundy simply replaced several key players such as Mo Xi off the court.

In the end, the Knicks defeated the 76ers 113-98 and directly advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals.

This time, Iverson took the initiative to hug Mo Xi and said, "Brother, keep moving forward, take my share, at least lose to the champion,." I'm going to feel better. ”

Mo Xi patted Iverson on the shoulder, nodded and said yes.

A championship, how many people's dreams.

In the Knicks, the two veterans hugged their shoulders, Ewing and Johnson were a little embarrassed, this is almost the last few years of the two of them, one less game, and the two of them are only left with the last luxury. Seeing this Knicks now, Ewing felt a burst of confidence.

Many people feel that Ewing is not worthy of the title of the four major centers, only from the data point of view, Ewing's performance can indeed only be regarded as a first-class center, far from great, but sometimes, the game itself is much greater than the data.

Looking at the yellow man of thirty standing proudly in the middle of Madison Square Garden, Ewing suddenly smiled, as happily as he had scored his first goal that year.

Although this is only the Eastern Conference Finals, Ewing firmly believes that this is the beginning of a legend.
