With 1:50 left on the clock, the Knicks led by three points. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

James was a little unhappy with his defense just now, and if he blocked Lehi's shot, the Cavaliers would have been able to take the lead now.

He dribbled past half the court, looked at the position of his teammates, and was stared at very hard.

He was a little impatient, if only there were teammates who were better at running without the ball, Ilgoskas came up to cover him, James thought about it, and shot directly from beyond the three-point line.

But this is obviously not the way he is good at, James is in a hurry, and he himself is not very clear, why he wants to achieve a comprehensive victory when he meets Lehi, is it influenced by Anthony, or he regards this striker from across the ocean as his worst enemy.

James missed a three-pointer, David Lee grabbed the rebound and handed it to Lehi, who controlled the time after the half-time, not in a hurry.

When the offensive time was running out, Lehi made a breakthrough posture, James stepped forward to defend, Lehi immediately leaned on James with his back, and then handed the ball to Crawford, Crawford hit a three-point shot, and the Knicks took a 6-point lead.

After the Cavaliers called a timeout, James attacked with the ball, and he also faked a real pass, and Ronald Murray hit a two-point shot.

Lehi dribbled the ball outside the three-point line, and the time had entered the last 1 minute, and when there were only 10 seconds left in the offensive time, Lehi did not follow the cover of his teammates to break through, but suddenly pulled up.

Three-pointers put the Knicks ahead by seven points.

Even if James' solo defensive ability is very good, it is impossible to predict what Lehi will do, and when the Cavaliers don't get a good chance on the counterattack, James hits Lehi and causes a foul, time is running out.

James hit one of two free throws, and the Cavaliers chose to forfeit the game.

At 91:85, after the Knicks won this game, they firmly occupied the top four positions in the East.

The next day was a back-to-back away game, and in the closing stages, the Knicks' schedule was not easy, this game Marbury returned, and Lehi and Eddie Curry were rested under the team's arrangement.

There were a few key players missing, and Marbury's comeback didn't last long, and the Knicks were defeated by the Bucks.

On April 16, the Knicks played the Pistons in the penultimate game of the regular season, and except for Channing Frye and Quentin Richardson, the rest of the players planned to play to warm up for the playoffs.

And the two who are temporarily unavailable are also planning to return in the first round of the playoffs.

The Pistons also played with all their main force, but from the first few games, their main team controlled the playing time, and only did not rotate to maintain their condition.

Because even if the Pistons lose, they are ironclad first in the East, 12 wins ahead of the second-place Heat, and there is no pressure at all.

In the first quarter of the game, the Pistons were full of hands, with all but Ben Wallace scoring three points, and the Pistons led by nearly 20 points after the first quarter.

In fact, the Knicks' offense was not a big problem, but it couldn't compare to the opponent's 40 points in the first quarter.

By the second quarter, the Pistons were all benches, and the Knicks also let the bench players play for a long time, but when it comes to the bench players, the Knicks are obviously stronger.

By halftime, the Knicks had only 10 points to lose.

In the second half, both sides sent their main lineups, and the Pistons five did not have the same touch as before, and the Knicks were evenly matched with each other in the third quarter and entered the final quarter with a score of 73:83.

In rotational time, Crawford and Nate Robinson hit back-to-back shots to quickly narrow the score.

In the last few minutes, when the main forces of both sides came up, the score was only 2 points apart.

In the final moments, the Pistons missed several shots, but the Knicks completed the reversal.

On April 17th, it was back-to-back again, and most of the games in April were back-to-backs for the Knicks, but this time they returned to play at home.

The Charlotte Bobcats have long since run out of playoff hopes, and now the team's starters are all youngsters, and they just hope to find one or two good seedlings in it.

When encountering such an opponent, the Knicks naturally solved it easily.

April 19 is the Knicks' final game of the regular season, away against the Nets.

Originally, the Knicks didn't have any ideas, but the Nets have suffered defeats in these games, and after they lost to the 76ers who have no playoff hope on the 18th, the two sides have only one game of record.

In other words, as long as the Knicks win today, they can immediately become third in the East.

So in the final game of the regular season, the two teams are still in a tight match.

Because it's not just a matter of different opponents in the first round of the playoffs, if the Nets lose and the Cavaliers win today, the Nets may fall from third in the East to fifth in the East and lose home-court advantage in the playoffs.

The Knicks are better, even if they lose because of the win-loss relationship, they are fourth in the East, they still have home-court advantage in the first round, and if they can win in the first round, they may have a better chance of playing against the Pistons in the second round than against the Heat.

Of course, this is just a cranky idea, from the first round, the Cavaliers are the most troublesome opponent, and if they become third in the East, how will countless other teams win or lose this year, the Wizards, Pacers or Bulls become sixth in the East, and the Knicks will play better.

Calculated or not, the Knicks' best bet is to win against their opponents.

So from the first quarter, Lehi played directly into the playoffs.

After the game against the Cavaliers, his feeling for the game was once again sublimated, and the confidence that he developed against a monster like James was devastating for other opponents.

Under Lehi's full impact, Richard Jefferson was a little unable to resist.

Richard Jefferson's defense is not bad, a few points better than Carter, but he obviously can't keep up with Lehi in his movement.

With just a pick-and-roll, Lehi could leave him behind.

While Jefferson was defending Lehi with all his might, Carter raised the banner of the Nets' offense, and the interior of both sides didn't get too many good chances after the first few minutes of the game.

The Nets' two 2.13-meter big men, Eddie Curry, were affected, but the Nets' interior offense was not good enough, and the two sides entered the outside showdown in advance.

Lehi sat with his back inside, Jefferson was not as strong as him, he was squeezed back a step, but immediately pounced fiercely, Lehi turned to the bottom line and killed the basket, Kostic reacted half a beat slowly, Lehi had already put the basketball in his hand into the basket.

At 24:20, led by Lehi's 11 points in a single quarter, the Knicks entered the next quarter with an advantage, just like Lehi's attitude, they were bound to win this game. (To be continued.) )
