On April 1st, April Fool's Day, the Knicks sat at home and faced the Cleveland Cavaliers, and finally won big!

Garnett was named Player of the Week after three straight wins, averaging 22.7 points, 10.7 rebounds, 7.0 assists, 1.7 steals and one block per game this week as he helped his team win over the Lakers and Pacers.

In fact, the best performer this week was Duncan, who not only led the team to three consecutive wins, but also averaged 27.5 points, 11.3 rebounds and 2 blocks per game. But there are unspoken rules for awards, and Duncan has just won the best of the month, so it is naturally not appropriate to compete with others for the best of the week. So Kevin Garnett picked up a bargain and won the Weekly Award for the first time in his career!

On April 4, the Knicks came to Indianapolis to fight the Pacers again!

Li Wei and Bird are old enemies, and countless Indiana reporters compared the records of the two teams before the game, sneering.

Li Wei said lightly: "I really don't know where your confidence comes from, last year the Knicks were the bottom of the league, and they were still able to beat the Pacers, and this year we have a better record, this one will definitely win!" ”

"Coach Lee, you were eliminated by the Pacers last year!" A reporter reminded.

"Even if we are eliminated by the Pacers in the playoffs, the battle between Bird and me is that I win more and he wins less!" Li Weidao.

On the online forum, Knicks fans and Pacers fans also quarreled again.

Pacers fans: "We will lose on the court because the players are too tired in three games, and the Pacers will definitely win this game!" ”

Knicks fans: "Your dad is still your dad!" ”

Pacers fans: "In all fairness, the Knicks are really inferior to the Pacers, they were eliminated by us last year, and this year they are worse without the big Z, and they may not even make the playoffs, and we are the first in the East!" ”

Knicks fans: "Your dad is still your dad!" ”

Pacers fans: "Is that all you mud fans say?" ”

Knicks fans: "Your dad is still your dad!" ”

Pacers fans: "Fake, let's see after the game, who's the dad!" ”

Unlike the last three days and three games, the Pacers had a day off before this game, and Bird and his coaching staff also laid out tactics against the Knicks.

"Rick, the Knicks' center position is very weak, you are the main attacker in this game, you have to blow them up!" Bird Road.

"I'll do my best!" Rick Schmitz said.

The height of the Dutch giant is 2.24 meters, which is about 20 centimeters taller than Big Ben, and playing Big Ben alone is like a 1.8 meter guy hitting a 1.6 meter guy on his back!

If Fat Ao Fat attacks, Big Ben can barely defend himself, then Rick Schmitz attacks, Big Ben is too tragic.

In the last game, Schmitz was too tired and didn't play much, but in this game, in the face of the Knicks' weak inside, he was confident to blow up the opponent!

Li Wei also knew that Schmitz was difficult to defend against this point, and when Big Ben couldn't stand it, he used Da Yao to top it for 7 minutes, then Garnett pushed it for 6 minutes, and Nowitzki pushed it for 5 minutes!

Although Schmitz is tall, he is not the strength type of O'Fat, so both Garnett and Nowitzki can rely on their height to defend themselves.

Rao is the Knicks coaching staff and Li Wei tried their best, but the inside line was still blown up by Schmitz. He played 23 minutes and scored 24 points on 12-of-18 shooting!

Fortunately, today's Knicks' outside feel is really good, Houston shoots wildly, and then smacks wildly, and one person scores 30 points alone, Maddie and Hornacek are also gods!

Bird, like Li Wei, is a guy who cares a lot about preserving the physical strength of the players. In the fourth quarter, the Pacers trailed by 10 points, and he still didn't send Schmitz on the court, and when Schmitz had rested enough, he couldn't change the outcome.

The Knicks won the city, winning four in a row!

After this battle, the Pacers also fell from first place in the East to second place in the East!

On the online forum, Knicks fans: "Your dad is still your dad!" We've said a long time ago that your dad will always be your dad! ”

Pacers fans: "......"

On the other hand, Li Wei did not fight with the media of Bird and Indiana. The form of the shrinking season is very grim, and he has been thinking about how the team can make the playoffs.

'I feel like the team is on the right track. Chuck Daley Dao.

"Let's hope so, Dirk's performance is still not consistent enough." Li Weidao.

Byron Scott said, "Haha, you're asking too much. You can't let a rookie play at an All-Star level, right? In the past ten years, there are only 4 people who can make it to All-Star in their rookie season! ”

Mike D'Antoni said: "Four rookie years All-Stars in this decade? David Robinson, Shaquille O'Neal, who else? ”

Scott Brooks said, "Hill and Duncan! ”

Mike D'Antoni patted his head and said, "Oh, Grant Hill! Look at me, I actually forgot that this guy who was the king of tickets in his rookie year! ”

Li Wei smiled: "Byron is right, it is difficult for a rookie to play well, it is because I am too demanding, and Dirk is very good." ”

The Knicks are really on track. On April 6, after Li Wei took a break from several main players, the Knicks still defeated the Magic, and on April 7, they defeated the Hornets in back-to-back games!

Six wins in a row!

On April 9, the Knicks defeated the Eastern Conference powerhouse Hawks, winning 7 in a row!

On April 11, the Knicks defeated the Nets with Marbury, winning 8 in a row!

In this game, Li Wei came off the bench in garbage time, and it happened that Nets center Jason Williams had an argument with Big Ben on the court and was blown a technical foul by the referee!

Nash was about to go to the free throw line to make a free throw, and Li Wei hurriedly said: "Don't you take a penalty, I'll come this time!" ”

Nash smiled and gave up the free throw to Li Wei.

Li Wei stood at the free throw line, took a deep breath, and then steadily hit the free throw and scored 1 point!

On April 13, the Knicks defeated the 76ers, who had a lot of momentum, and won 9 in a row!

However, on April 14, the imposing Knicks actually lost to the Wizards who were not in good shape in back-to-back games, which was a big surprise!

"It's really unfortunate that after we shouted the slogan of 21 consecutive wins, we ended it with 9 consecutive wins!" Byron Scott said.

Chuck Daley said: "It's unfortunate, I thought I could fall short in 20 games like last year! To make matters worse, it was the Wizards who ended our winning streak, and they are now at the bottom of the East! ”

Li Weidao: "It doesn't matter if the winning streak is ended, but losing to the third-to-last team in the East is a wake-up call for each of us. You can't be sloppy in any game, or you're going to lose. From the end of the game, everyone has to cheer up and strive for 21 consecutive wins, do you have confidence? ”

"Yes!" All the players responded in unison.

After the loss to the Wizards, the Knicks' record became 19-20, and the 18-19 Raptors finished ninth and 10th in the East, respectively.

The next 11th place is the Charlotte Hornets with 17 wins and 20 losses. In 8th place in front of everyone is the Cleveland Cavaliers with 20 wins and 18 losses, and the Milwaukee Bucks in 7th place are 22-16!

"The competition is so fierce, and many wins can make the playoffs, and if you win one less, you won't be able to play." Xia Cuirong looked at the ranking and sighed.

"yes, it's so intense, it's good that the Bulls, Nets, and Wizards are falling behind this year, otherwise it's even more intense." Li Weidao.

Xia Cuirong flipped through the information in her hand and sighed lightly: "Let's not talk about the Bulls, the Wizards exchanged Webb for Mitch Richmond, which seems to be a loss." But how could the Nets, who are so good, suddenly get worse? They even robbed Stephen Marbury in March! ”

Li Weidao: "Injuries, their main point guard Cassel only played 4 games before being traded, and backup point guard Eric Murdoch was also absent for almost the entire season. ”

"Pity him for a generation of famous marshals, and he was fired like this." Xia Cuirong smacked her lips, then reached out and knocked Li Wei's head and said, "Husband, you led the team worse than Calipari at the beginning of the season, I should have fired you early like the Nets management!" ”

Li Weidao: "Your Excellency, President, please spare your life, you are small enough to lead the team into the playoffs!" ”

"Haha, that's up to you." Xia Cuirong said.

"Yes!" Li Wei then carried her to the next room and behaved well.

On April 16, the Knicks traveled to Detroit to face the Pistons. Grant Hill didn't shoot very well despite a quasi-triple-double, and Garnett's defense was successful. At 95:80, the Knicks win!

On April 17, the Knicks returned to their home court to face the Raptors back-to-back, and Li Wei finally scored his first victory against Charles Oakley!

"Charles, this time I finally won!"

"Okay, it's cheaper for you!"

Oakley hugged Li Wei and then walked out. As he walked through the tunnel, he took a deep look at the Madison Square Garden, where he had played for ten years.

How many decades can a person's life have?

It's still his favorite place!
