The fourth quarter was played in an extremely tense atmosphere in Madison Square Garden, the Knicks fell behind by a large score, and Van Gundy could not come up with any effective methods for a while, so he had to ask the team to strengthen the defense while increasing the offensive efforts on the inside. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In fact, Houston has a good hand in this game, but Houston is a pure shooter, which requires opening up space and someone on the inside who can attract firepower for him.

After a short break, the Knicks' full lineup returned to the court.

The Knicks, who returned to the court, adhered to the aristocratic quality of not being more than you do, and gritted his teeth and attacked a wave of interior as soon as he came up.

Ward sent a high lob to Mo Xi, Mo Xi used his body to push the defender inward, Rao is so, Mo Xi still received the ball close to the waist position, it is easy to be caught here, and it is not easy to pass the ball out again.

Mo Xi thought about it for a while, and suddenly used force under his feet, resisted the opponent, and pushed strongly towards the penalty area.

The bucks were a little caught off guard, and the man in the bag didn't follow up in time, allowing Mo Xi to advance to a position close to the three-second zone, and then took a wrong step with his feet, half turned, half of his body leaned against the opponent, and then grabbed the ball with his right hand, drew an arc from the side of his body, and turned to hook his hand.

The ball slides smoothly into the basket.

The Bucks didn't care about this, and launched a fast attack directly, Casal caught the serve and ran directly to the front court, who expected, at this time, Sprewell had an idea, and waited for Casal in the half court early, and the two collided head-on, Sprewell actually created a defensive trap for the other party, and Casal, who was unaware, crashed into it.

"Drop~"

Casal unknowingly committed five crimes.

George Karl slapped his thigh angrily off the court, Casal is good, but sometimes he is always too careless, like the situation just now could have been avoided, but the Bucks have been playing too smoothly, Casal is unaware of this.

Van Gundy is very excited, he seems to have faintly found the key to victory, you know, in all positions, the Knicks are no worse than the Bucks, and even on the inside, the Knicks still have an absolute advantage, but in point guards, the Knicks' two point guards can only be said to be good, but it is an absolute shortcoming for a team that aims to win the championship.

The Knicks attacked again, this time still giving the ball to the inside.

Mo Xi did not attack this time, because Johnson had already cut in, Mo Xi passed directly to Johnson, and Johnson received the pass and made a layup directly.

The pace of the Knicks in these two rounds is a little fast, not Van Gundy's arrangement, but Ward can't control the rhythm on the court, plus his teammates are not willing to be magically turned over by the Bucks like this, and speed up the pace to chase points, so Ward, who is not good at controlling the rhythm, broke away from the position of commander, or rather, his teammates have instinctively distrusted him.

The Bucks attacked, this time Casal was very careful, after all, there were already five fouls, the Bucks failed to play a quick offense, and the Knicks' defense was naturally a little clueless.

Casal burst the ball and gave the ball to Glenn Robinson, who burst again and handed it to Ray Allen, who dribbled and threw his hand through Morning's cover.

But at this time, Johnson also followed Manning to come up, and he pounced directly to make up for Ray Allen.

Ray Allen missed the shot, because the Bucks replaced Manning, and the rush for frontcourt rebounds weakened, and Mo Xi took advantage of his height advantage to win the rebound, and the Knicks quickly switched offense and defense.

Johnson received a pass from Mo Xi and passed directly to Sprewell, the Bucks rushed to Sprewell, Sprewell directly hit the basket, and when he was halfway through, he suddenly turned around and passed back to Houston, Houston received the ball outside the three-point line, adjusted slightly, and shot three points directly.

The basketball turned a white wave in the Nets, the Knicks hit another three-pointer, and in just a few minutes, the Knicks closed the gap to three points, and the Bucks were suddenly beaten.

George Karl hurriedly called a timeout, the current situation made him uncomfortable, but he could only switch to three forwards to force a rebound in the frontcourt, but this is not the biggest dead hole for the Bucks, the Bucks' biggest problem at the moment is the foul on Casal.

Casal has 12 points and 10 assists in this game, if the Bucks win, Casal is undoubtedly the biggest contributor, but now, he will also be the biggest shortcoming of the Bucks.

In desperation, George Carr could only tell Tokasar to be careful.

Fortunately, Casal is also an old man, knows the situation on the field, and also knows the importance of protecting himself, so he nodded and agreed.

On the other side, Van Gundy, although he also knew that Casal was the biggest breakthrough, but he didn't know what hole cards he had in his hand to beat Casal, he knew that after George Karl came back from this pause, he must strengthen the impact of frontcourt rebounds, but Johnson can't be replaced, how is this good, Van Gundy, who was forced to do nothing, simply replaced Ward, who was inactive in a game, replaced Camby, forcibly enhanced the protection of rebounds, and Johnson is not impossible to defend the No. 3 position.

However, Van Gundy did not expect his helplessness to turn out to be a turning point in the game.

Ward is a team player, good at defense and projection, and in both aspects, Sprewell is stronger than him, two rounds down, Casal was almost beaten by Sprewell, if it weren't for Ray Allen seeing that the situation was not good, he stepped forward to help Casal as a wave, but I am afraid that Casal was already sitting off the court at this time.

The Knicks have focused their offense on Sprewell, constantly creating opportunities for Sprewell to single out Kasar.

Mo Xi was involved on the inside, suddenly pulled out, and removed the inside, Houston ambushed the bottom corner, Johnson and Camby also pulled to the strong side, and Sprewell singled Kasar on the weak side.

Casal knew that this was the Knicks dealing with him, but he had nothing to do, so he had to rely on his own judgment.

But sometimes, in the face of the five criminals, you don't have to beat him down, but you can take advantage of the opponent's timidity to brush up a wave of points.

Sprewell broke through with a fake move directly, Casal slid backwards, but only took a step back, and saw Sprewell suddenly make a step-back jumper, Casal hesitated, did not go over to defend, and Sprewell hit easily.

George Karl shook his head off the court, and Casal was not to blame, after all, even the best defenders in the field would be a little overwhelmed in this situation.

Since it can't be done once, it is natural to have to do it again.

The next wave of the Bucks' offense the Knicks failed to defend, but in turn, the Knicks organized another wave of singles against Cassar, which caught Casal off guard this time, because the Knicks directly played a switch, and Johnson carried Cassar on his back.

Casal ate Johnson's elbow and felt a pain in his body, at this moment, Johnson forcibly crushed Casal to advance to the inside, Casal was wrinkled by Johnson, and was forced to the inside by Johnson, and was forced to commit a foul.

"Drop~"

With two minutes left in the game, Casal fouled six and the Knicks trailed by just two points after Johnson hit one of two free throws.

However, in the remaining two minutes, the Bucks' resistance was very stubborn, and the Knicks only forced the score to tie the score, unable to go further, and the two sides went into overtime.

This is also the first time to play overtime after entering the league, but the opponent's performance is that Mo Xi failed to experience the feeling of overtime, the two sides entered the time trial, and there was no Casal's threading needle, the Bucks' offense fell into chaos, and in the entire overtime, although it was only a short five minutes, the Bucks played very badly, and five minutes later, they handed over a 4:14 report card.

In the end, the Knicks 111:101, after a series of twists and turns, defeated the Bucks, the "giant killer". The turmoil over the center has also come to an end.
