For the Knicks, who won the first game, it was time to breathe a sigh of relief.

But it's not time to be completely relaxed, only when you win the championship, it's time to be completely relaxed.

In an interview after the game, Chen Jiyuan was asked by reporters: "Were you and Howard spewing trash talk to each other at that time?" ”

After all, when Chen Jiyuan and Howard were together at that time, neither party's mouths were idle, and it was obvious that the two of them were spewing trash talk.

However, the well-known thing is that the relationship between Chen Jiyuan and Howard is quite good. They even trained together. Although the two men have been competing for the best center position in the league, the two have never shown any hostility towards each other.

All along, it was the respective fans who were hostile to each other.

When Chen Jiyuan was asked this question, he seemed very indifferent, "That's right, we are indeed talking trash to each other." Trash talk itself is part of the game. ”

And the reporter went on to ask: "Will this make your relationship different from before?" ”

"No, no, no." Chen Jiyuan shook his head and vetoed: "Of course, this will not affect our relationship. We're still friends off the pitch, but when we're on the pitch we all do the same thing, which is to help our team win. Both of us will do whatever it takes to help the team. ”

"Therefore, the two of us will definitely go toe-to-toe on the field, and we will still do everything we can to beat each other. But that doesn't affect our relationship off the field. Off the field, we're still friends! ”

And Howard was also asked about this when he was interviewed, and Howard's answer was similar to Chen Jiyuan's, after all, although Howard and Chen Jiyuan were-for-tat when they were on the court, they didn't have so many grievances.

It's just that the relationship between the two people is definitely not as good as the two people say, although the grievances on the field will not continue to the field, but who can say that they don't care at all?

In fact, at this point, the current alliance is already good, and in the previous alliance, few enemies are embarrassed to speak.

At that time, the relationship between the stars on the rivers and lakes was really bad.

For example, Thomas didn't pass the ball to Jordan in the All-Star Game, etc., and there was a real hatred between the stars at that time. When it comes to the game, people don't talk trash. Just get started, just do it.

Regardless of whether the relationship between Chen Jiyuan and Howard has deteriorated, Chen Jiyuan and Howard answered very correctly and reasonably when dealing with the media.

Between Game 1 and Game 2, the Knicks and Magic had a day off. And on the day they rested, it was the start of the game between the Cavaliers and the Celtics.

It's going to be a really tough game for the Cavaliers. After all, the Celtics are the existence of the hegemony level of two consecutive championships, and it is not so simple to overcome this difficulty and rush to the finals.

In this world, the biggest change from Chen Jiyuan's original world is Garnett, and I don't know why, Garnett was not injured, which made the Celtics triumvirate brilliant, otherwise, in that world, after the Celtics triumvirate won the championship in the first year, he couldn't participate in the playoffs in the second year because Garnett was injured, and he didn't even get the Eastern Conference championship, and in the third year, because Garnett's state was not as good as before, he lost to Kobe Bryant in the finals and lost to the old rival Lakers.

But in this world, a healthy Gane has brought too many things to the Celtics, making the current Celtics really strong.

In addition, Rondo has gradually grown this season. This makes the Celtics even more difficult to deal with.

The first game between the Cavaliers and the Celtics was in Boston, where the Celtics had the home advantage.

The little emperor James came up and was given a dismount by the Celts. suffered a very painful defeat.

In this game, James was restricted quite badly. Although he had a quasi-triple-double of 24 points, 8 assists and 8 rebounds, he shot only 8-of-23 from the field. 2-of-8 three-pointers. 6-of-8 from the free-throw line.

The hit rate is a little lower.

And what's worse is that no one on the team can stand up to help James.

The so-called Tsar combination, but this emperor is powerful, but the shark is useless.

On the inside, the big shark is obedient to Perkins's obedience.

The big shark's dominance in the inner line is long gone, not to mention, the big shark used to be most proud of his own pimple meat. And now, in the face of Perkins, who is also covered in pimple meat, the big shark is a little too much to eat.

Perkins' muscles are really strong, and the last thing he is afraid of is the inflexible, but powerful inside line of the big shark.

O'Neill's age has caused him to move quite slowly. So that's why it's hard for him to open up on the offensive end. Although in many cases, O'Neill is also able to use his physical strength to bully his opponents. However, now it is not possible to face Perkins.

Although JJ Hickson has grown, he is still a little less than enough in front of Garnett, even if JJ Hickson is very energetic, but he can only score a 10 points and 8 rebounds. And this statistic is a little bit different from Garnett's 19 points and 12 rebounds.

Daniel Gibson played even worse against the Celtics. He was 3-of-11 from three-point range and scored just nine points. It should be that the Celtics' defense of Daniel Gibson is quite successful, or that Rondo's defense of Daniel Gibson is still quite successful.

The Celtics spent most of their time letting Rondo defend Daniel Gibson. Rondo is tall and has long arms, and he is still quite a threat on the defensive end. This is the main reason why Daniel Gibson is so bad.

The Celtics are under the leadership of the Big Three, and the Cavaliers' defense of the Celtics is actually not bad, but it is only quite bad at Ray Allen.

Since Ray Allen came to the Celtics, he has basically taken on a large part of the team's three-point shooting weight, and Ray Allen has changed from the original ball-handling offense to the current no-ball running three-point shooter, which can be said to be a considerable sacrifice for the team.

And Ray Allen's sacrifice is still quite worth it, after all, the team is now two consecutive championships.

In terms of outside defense, James focuses more on Pierce, but he can't defend Ray Allen.

Although Mo Williams was also trying his best to defend Ray Allen today, neither Mo Williams nor Daniel Gibson could stop Ray Allen.

Ray Allen scored 28 points today. 7-of-10 three-pointers. It's just such a guy, and he has no tricks for the Cavaliers.

In the end, the Celtics beat the Cavaliers with a score of 124-98. Won the first game on their home turf.

James was furious in the post-game news interview. After all, the team played so badly, if James could still joke happily with reporters, then James would have to be sprayed to death.

The Cavaliers lost the first game, but the Knicks didn't have time to care about other people's games. All of them are going all out to prepare for the next home game on their side.

In many cases, the home battle of the playoffs can be related to the victory or loss of the entire series. That's why teams are quite serious about home advantage in the playoffs. Of course, if you really have an advantage in strength, then the home advantage is actually like that.

Before this game against the Magic, neither Britney nor Ivanka came to Chen Jiyuan. At this time, a calm mind can play a better strength, so at this time, it is best not to let basketball accidents interfere with Chen Jiyuan.

Although Britney tried not to interfere with Chen Jiyuan, her team's playoffs, of course, were watching every night. Both home and away.

Ivanka is the same, Ivanka just wants to quietly support Chen Jiyuan, hoping that Chen Jiyuan can win.

The second game at home came as scheduled.

The Knicks' starters are still Chen Jiyuan, Love, Sessions, Iguodala, and Stephen Jackson.

The Magic's starters are Howard, Lewis, Nelson, Petrus. Carter.

Although Gortat played as the team's interior center in the last game, Howard became the team's power forward, but one game did not allow the Magic to change the starting position.

After all, even if Lewis plays well, Lewis still has a three-point shot. This life is more or less enough to help Howard.

In the first quarter of this game, the two sides played back and forth.

Chen Jiyuan won against Howard when he jumped the ball. The Knicks attack first.

After half time, Chen Jiyuan jumped directly, but the feeling was not good.

The ball pops out of the frame.

The Magic made a quick switch and Carter burst in, and although he didn't score, it caused a foul on Love.

Carter made both free throws,

From this foul, Carter seemed to have found only the rhythm he wanted. After that, Carter actually made all 5 shots in the first quarter and scored 15 points in the first quarter. This has happened a lot in the past, but this is the first time since Carter came to the Magic.

What's more, in the playoffs, such a crazy Carter naturally received huge boos from the fans.

However, on the Knicks' side, although Chen Jiyuan's hand is not very good, fortunately, his teammates are still powerful, and the defensive end is also good.

Therefore, after the first quarter, the score of the two sides was 21:20.
