The current Wizards' tactics are to imitate the Olajuwon championship era, and now the Wizards' configuration of players is even stronger than the Rockets of that era.

Jamison, who can play the third and fourth positions, is a good interior partner of Kwame, and so far, the most perfect interior player with Kwame, Arenas and Hughes's abilities are also very outstanding, and even in the media's statement, it is in this Wizards lineup that there is no Kwame with the most critical core, and the Wizards should also be able to enter the playoffs in the East.

Compared with last season's somewhat chaotic ball disputes, after Jamison and Hughes came to the Wizards, it is no longer a problem, the relationship between Arenas and Hughes is complementary, one side plays well, the other side will reduce the number of shots they have, one is based on breakthroughs, the other is based on projection, and the abilities of the two are very complementary.

Jamison needs to shoot an average of shots per game, but he doesn't really need to hold the ball and dribble the ball, so Kwame's ability is the most perfect interpretation in such a lineup, and it is also a group of selections in the best team at the end of the season, breaking O'Neal's long-standing monopoly on the center position.

Before the game, the Knicks knew that this game was not going to be easy to play, and the first problem they faced was how to defend Kwame.

In the end, the result of the discussion was also inconclusive, so Yao Ming could only work hard, and he defended Kuame alone, and before this game, Mill and other coaching staff took an in-depth conversation with Yao Ming for the first time, and Yao Ming finally expressed his support for the coaching staff.

This is a game where Yao Ming's playing time may reach more than 40 minutes, and in a season's game, the Knicks have adopted a strategy of protecting Yao Ming, and for the first time in front of the whole team, they have shown their heavier use of Yao Ming, which also reflects the importance that the Knicks attach to Yao Ming, as well as the deepest trust.

During this time, most of Yao Ming's training has stopped, except for the various stretching preparation activities and ball feeling exercises that must be required every day, all other physical training is finished before the game against the Pistons.

With the deepening of the Knicks in the playoffs, Yao Ming's playing time has risen from 24 minutes to 35 minutes now, and if Kwamei performs extremely well today, Yao Ming's playing time will break through the 40-minute mark for the first time this season, and the Knicks' cautious use of Yao Ming can be seen, but at the level of the Eastern Conference Finals, there are not many cards that the Knicks can use in their hands, and Yao Ming's strategic weapon has of course also reached the moment of attack.

Yao Ming wanted to meet Kwamme who was two years younger than him, especially when Yao Ming's memories of the NBA included the memories of Olajuwon's Finals, which increased Yao Ming's desire to win the game.

It's just that what no one expected was Gong Feng's pre-game preparation in this game and Gong Feng's expressionless expression.

In the Knicks' team, no one has ever seen Gong Feng show such a look, that kind of expression of desire to win to the limit, that kind of preoccupied look, that is, in the finals last season, Gong Feng completed his tasks with a smile on his face throughout the game, and did not show such a look.

While Kwamei wanted to prove herself, in fact, how could the hurdle in Gong Feng's heart in the past ever dissipate? When the Wizards selected Kwamei and did not choose Gong Feng, this item is not something that Gong Feng will easily put down.

Otherwise, how could Gong Feng fight against his old master last season, without releasing water in a single game, and even do everything he could for it?

Otherwise, how could Gong Feng not want to be swept out by the Wizards in his second season, and use all his hole cards at that time?

Yes, Gong Feng's coming to the Knicks is Gong Feng's second glorious moment, but if the hurdle in his heart can be easily erased, it really takes time to accumulate.

can collide for three consecutive years, the first time is incompetent, the second has an absolute advantage, only the third time, the two sides seem to be standing at the same height, and more importantly, this is the final of the East...... In the Eastern part of the NBA, there is no better stage to decide the winner of the two.

It's just that in the first game, Gong Feng didn't behave too abnormally, just played according to his normal performance, and Kwamei did the same.

Although the record of the two teams in the regular season is 2-2, it is the first time they have met in the playoffs, especially after the Knicks came to the playoffs and changed a lot of playing styles, and the Wizards players played well in the first two rounds, the first stage of the first game is actually a time for the two sides to test each other.

Although the Wizards with Kwame can play fast, although the counterattack is very sharp, the Wizards are still a team based on positional warfare, although the counterattacks of Arenas and Hughes are very sharp, both of them have made great progress this year, but most of the time, the ball is still in the hands of Kwame.

After the opening, the competition between the two sides was carried out in the case of muscle collision, and after targeted defense, the offense of both sides did not open at the beginning, the Knicks side was very surprised by the speed of the Wizards' interior defense, and the Wizards' side showed a very good performance of Kwame's restrictions.

Yao Ming's single defense ability is overlooked, and the Knicks put Yao Ming in the regular season as the defensive responsibility of protecting the basket, and rarely let Yao Ming directly play against the opponent's main interior scoring point, a responsibility that is Bosh most of the time.

In the end, there are only three or two centers in this league who have the ability to play Yao Ming, but there are not few capable power forwards, and Bosh's growth is also what the Knicks are most concerned about this season, and even the competition between Bosh and Dior in private is also allowed by the Knicks.

Of course, it seems that the two have their own strengths, and the Knicks are not in a hurry to split a winner for the two at this time.

As for the Wizards' second scoring point, Arenas, is also the focus of the Knicks, and the defense of Hughes is simpler, that is, to defend his breakthrough and give appropriate shooting space, but for Arenas and Jamison, the defense is full of pressure, increasing the difficulty and timing of the two's shooting.

Although the Knicks' defense is well targeted, the Wizards are also a team with a lot of experience and ability in the end, and it would be too much to underestimate the Wizards if they could be ranked fourth in the league in today's situation.

The Wizards' many small tactical cooperation is still very good, especially after Kwame and the outside player's several blocking and pick-and-roll tactics, when the whole team's offense can be integrated, the Knicks' defense can't fully predict this situation.

The same is true for the Wizards' defense, even if the Wizards' defense is considered to be the first-line level of the entire league, and the rebounds are ranked first, but the core lineup of the Knicks, who has been together for three years, how can it be easily restricted, and when all the players of the Knicks have baskets, the Wizards are more of a disturbance to the Knicks.

In such a confrontation situation, from the beginning of the confrontation to the fourth minute of the fourth quarter, the superstar needs help, but the reason why the superstar is a superstar is also to play at a critical moment. Gong Feng's data is not very good, but no media person thinks that Gong Feng will not be able to reach the status of an NBA superstar in the future, just because the most critical point is that in key games and key rounds, Gong Feng's role is to be as dazzling as the sun, so that no one can ignore it in the slightest.

At this point, Kwame also did a very good job, and in the case of complete physical and mental overdraft, this is the time to prove himself.

In the bench lineup of the two sides, the Knicks have the advantage, but the comparison of key players, after the Knicks' main team plays, even if they rest for five or six minutes more than the opponent, they do not have an absolute advantage.

In terms of physical strength and physical fitness, Kwamei is completely famous, and in terms of athleticism alone, it is a big capital for Kwamei to gain a foothold in the NBA.

Although Hill is in the prime of life, he is also in peak condition this year, but the player who defends him is the most physical.

Bosh's physical energy consumption is more, Yao Ming is off, and Kwamei is still on the field at that critical moment, Bosh is the main force to defend Kwamei, even if Yao Ming is on the field, Bosh is also the main force to help defend Kwamei. (To be continued.) )
