Heywood completed his task, and he didn't force Yao Ming to squeeze under the basket, who knows if once he uses more strength, Yao Ming will take advantage of the situation to turn around with a flexible movement, and then go directly to the basket, what should he do?

Yao Ming is okay, but Heywood defends Yao Ming like this, although he can block the pass in the direction of Yao Ming, but Heywood can't defend the impact of other players' baskets, especially the effective protection of backcourt rebounds.

Hill began to block with Bow Peak and Allen on the outside, and once the Wizards were trapped, there was naturally one person who could vacate the spot.

Do the Knicks main players who got the vacant seats need to say more? It's good to shoot directly, but if you don't score, Yao Ming is defending in front of others, plus other defenders are not under the basket, will Yao Ming's rebounding be bad?

Of course, Yao Ming can't grab all the rebounds, Haywood can complete the card position in an instant when he is prepared, and let his teammates grab the position, and once Yao Ming uses this point excessively, the Knicks' defensive system is very likely to collapse, but is the Knicks' instant vacancy shooting ability very poor?

Among the Knicks' main force, Malone, who is now a slightly worse shooting ability, can reach a shooting rate of more than 60% when shooting completely empty.

Once the Knicks' main force does not get the package, but makes up for the defense, it depends on the ability of the Knicks, but Hill faces Arenas, even the direct breakthrough after receiving the ball has a high shooting rate, not to mention, for Gong Feng and Ray Allen, it is possible to score directly with a slight space gap.

Of course, if the current Malone does not have the slightest offensive ability with the ball, this tactic will not be able to play, but once Kwamei implements personal defensive tactics against Malone. When Malone wants to move, he will directly break through Kwame, relying on years of skills, either hitting the board and shooting, or jumping up and shooting directly.

This is just an offensive tactic of the Knicks, and it is impossible to really rely on Malone to win the playoffs. Malone is in the running for more playing time, Yao Ming's high position, Gong Feng's offense after holding the ball and Hill completing the block, or the shooting space that Ray Allen and Yao Ming get after blocking and dismantling.

The Knicks, who have two playmakers, Bow Peak and Hill, will never lack open positions, high and low positions, and strong opportunities for misplacement in the offense, especially when the Knicks' five players have strong scoring ability.

In just five minutes, the Knicks used their tough defense to catch the Wizards off guard as a whole. Especially now, when all the Wizards' individual abilities were limited by the Wizards at the beginning of the game, after the end of the first quarter, the Knicks opened the gap to 15 points.

You must know that the Knicks are facing the Wizards, but they are working very hard to defend.

Eddie Jordan has no way to face such a Knicks, and the Wizards are not the defensive team of the past, he can only tell his players to keep blocking and dismantling, constantly creating opportunities for his teammates, according to what he knows about the Knicks before the game. Keep hitting the rebound, and then go down the offense.

The Wizards' four-man offensive combination. It is indeed possible that it will be a master combination in a chaotic battle, and once the situation does turn into the kind of situation that Eddie imagined, there is that kind of extremely chaotic situation, and the Wizards can still win.

However, although Yao Ming and Malone are not fast, the height of the two is a factor that Eddie Jordan ignores, no matter who is on the Wizards team who grabs the rebound. In the first place, you will get a route from either of the two to specifically block the pass.

In addition, the Wizards do not have two of the league's top three-point shooters like the Knicks, who start with a backward defense that shrinks the basket.

After the Knicks actively blocked Arenas' three-point shooting, it was impossible for the other three Wizards to give Kwame too much space to impact, not to mention that it was Kwame who grabbed rebounds, and it was Kwame who hit the basket. The organization also depends on Kwame...... Kwame is truly omnipotent, and it is impossible to maintain a high efficiency throughout the game, right?

The helpless Wizards could only let Carter, Jerry, and Arenas lead the team to complete the single when the Knicks' main team was at rest, hoping to break the blockade from the Knicks when there was room to shoot.

It's a pity that Arenas is not the one who can compete for the league's scoring title later, and he and Jerry have just suffered a serious injury, just returned to the team, and for the playoff spot, they didn't get the slightest time to rest, and it is not easy for them to actively take on defensive and offensive responsibilities in the game, and it is really difficult for these two people to continue scoring under the Knicks' tight defense.

Carter's ball-handling offensive ability is one of the strongest in the league, but he is also the target of the Knicks' key defense, whether it is Hill, or Battier on the bench, Kort after Yao's name is off the court, or Malone, as long as Carter breaks through the offense with the ball, he will always get a double bag defense.

The Wizards have two shooters with strong three-point ability, or to put it more bluntly, if Jerry can ensure his three-point shooting rate in the open position, Carter's style of play is indeed a big threat to the Knicks, but unfortunately Gong Feng has already learned Jerry's three points?

These are just defensive problems against the Knicks, and it is their own defensive problems that really hit the lifeblood of the Wizards.

It is impossible for Yao Ming to maintain high efficiency in the fourth quarter, and it is impossible for Malone to play the whole game, but the Knicks are a full-team offensive team again, and it can also be said to be a team with an All-Star collection, not to mention that the substitutes selected by the Knicks can completely replace the role of their main force in a certain period of time to a certain extent.

Malone went off the court to rest in the first quarter, Bosh can completely replace Malone's scoring task, as for defense, as long as Yao Ming guards the basket on the inside, this is not a problem, Yao Ming is resting, Cott, Gerrard, Battier plays, but don't forget, the Knicks are not just an offensive mode.

Although the fate of Yao Ming and Malone did make the Knicks' defensive efficiency seem to be reduced to a low point, after the score is opened, the Knicks will already win as long as they ensure that their scores can be equal to the Wizards, not to mention that the Knicks may be in the small lineup and exceed the Wizards' scores during this period of time.

If you do this, it does seem to make the game of Gong Feng and Hill a bit too much, and the two are indeed constantly running, but Jay, Battier, Gerrard, Cott, and Bosh are still very energetic and firepower.

Especially Jay thought that he was so embarrassed by the Wizards in the playoffs last season, so he didn't play hard to attack in the playoffs this season?

You must know that Jay's solo offense with the ball, and Bosh's blocking offense is also a major offensive weapon for the Knicks, in terms of the speed of breaking through the first step, Jay is comparable to Carter, Jay is recognized as an absolute champion candidate in 02, his physical fitness, ability to read the game and scoring ability, is not comparable to the Wizards' bench players.

After Jordan left, the veterans who were called up that year either left, or lost their space in the league for personal reasons, the beating of Arenas' big contract, and now Carter joined, the Wizards have actually entered the second rebuilding cycle, but some people on the Wizards are still fantasizing about the glory of the previous year or two, as if they are looking forward to the appearance of a new Jordan in their team.

There is no modesty in the playoffs, and the Knicks fully showed their strong offensive and defensive abilities in the first game, and fully showed their desire for a championship in the first game.

In the face of such a Knicks, the Wizards could only swallow a loss of more than 20 points...... It's also impossible for the Knicks to give the Wizards the slightest hope of victory in the playoffs, and it's impossible to release water in the game so that the Wizards don't perform so badly.

If this 20-point gap can really make the Wizards surrender in the back, that's what the Knicks want. (To be continued.) )
