Zhang Yu really hopes that someone can help him now, and in the first two games between the Knicks and the Celtics, he deeply felt the pain of being targeted, and felt the powerlessness of Kobe Bryant who led the team alone and James was swept by the Spurs.

David Lee came out to block and dismantle, and immediately pulled to the left wing after covering, and Kenyon Martin was still standing in this position a second ago, and the old champion started to insert into the basket at the same time when David Lee and Zhang Yu blocked and dismantled......

Zhang Yu dribbled to the right side, which was a deliberate pull on the Celtic defense and left the opponent weak.

The Knicks' positional offense, which has changed from the same today, is also a little unpredictable at the moment, strengthening the changes in the offense, and the Celtics players immediately feel tricky.

Kenyon. Martin instantly exploded beyond Garnett, and this time he inserted unexpectedly, throwing off the wolf king one step away.

Zhang Yu's pass to the ball arrived, Kenyon Martin jumped into the air first, and the basketball was just right to pass to the latter's hand.

What Kenyon Martin had to do to receive the basketball couldn't have been easier, pressing his hands hard and pouring the basketball into the basket.

With a score of 58:50, the Knicks staged a wonderful aerial relay on the first offense in the second half, which immediately detonated the "Madison Square Garden", and the New York fans issued earth-shattering shouts to cheer for their home team!

Coach Rivers was starting to feel troubled, and the Knicks had a good first half, leading them by six points, and he didn't feel too worried at halftime, just like D'Antoni himself was worried. It won't be good, sooner or later the second half will run out of character, and then it will be the moment of Celtic's counterattack.

But the Knicks' first offense of the second half showed interior coordination. But Rivers feels very bad, this kind of offense is far more efficient than outside shooting, and it will also drive the player's outside touch, the so-called combination of inside and outside is what it means.

On the offensive end, the Celtics' offense was far more versatile than the Knicks, with Ray Allen taking advantage of the outside and shooting a three-pointer at the top of the arc......

"Bang!"

No matter how accurate Ray Allen is, he can't hit every goal. In the first half, the killer Lei has already shot 3 of 4, and in the second half, if you go down accurately, do you still want friends?

David. Lee and Perkins wrestle under the basket. The New York center is also quite hard, Kendrick. Perkins weighs 285 pounds, 40 pounds heavier than David Lee, at a glance. The size of the two is a full circle apart.

Garnett and Kenyon. Martin also has the advantage in the race for rebounds. The height and arm span of the two men, the Knicks power forward's touch height difference is at least 20cm higher than that of the Wolf King.

New York fans saw that their interior players both lost their advantageous positions, and they knew in their hearts that this rebound could not be saved.

Gerrard. Wallace disagreed, he was the Knicks' main player in the rebound grab, and Wallace rushed from the outside, rushed to the basket to help run and jump, and jumped far higher than Kenyon Martin and Garnett. Reach out your arm and grab the rebound over the head of the inside player under the basket, then hug it to your chest.

Zhang Yu stepped forward to answer. Crawford was already on the verge of a rebound, and the Knicks immediately launched a quick counterattack as soon as they grabbed the rebound.

As early as the first game, the Knicks were already using the fast break to force the Celtics players to give up the frontcourt rebounding scramble. Just like this time, the Celtics' two interior players are all scrambling for frontcourt rebounds under the basket, and once they miss, the Knicks' fast break will be overstretched.

Gerrard. Wallace passed the basketball to Zhang Yu, and then accelerated to keep up, and the Knicks were fast-breaking!

Celtic's Rondo, Ray Allen, and Pierce retreated in time to play three in the frontcourt.

The number of offense and defense on both sides looks the same, but the fast break is the Knicks' old business, and it is also the foundation of their foothold, how can the same number of people defend it?

Zhang Yu transported to the front court this time, flashed past Ray Allen, and relied on his height advantage to beat Rajan under the basket. Rondo, basketball scored, and also made the Celtics' fourth big man a foul, two plus one!

The cheers of "Madison Square Garden" have not stopped since the second half, and the sound wave after wave echoes in the entire arena is the heartless shouts of New York fans!

Rondo protested to the referee under the basket, and in the end he obviously stopped and didn't touch Zhang Yu, how could he be a thug?

The referee was unmoved, the league had already greeted in advance in this game, and tactfully proposed: pay attention to the home penalty scale to ensure that the game is exciting and fair!

What does the alliance mean, even a fool can hear.

The implication of "wonderful" is to let him try to make a judgment in favor of the Knicks, and if the overall score becomes 0:3, then what else is exciting about the game? And the so-called "fairness", of course, is not to go too far and give people a handle!

As for why the playoffs are so dark, and there will be so many 0:4 situations, this question is easy to explain, see Adou Legend, what can be done if some teams really can't help it? In addition to pig teammates, sometimes you will encounter a paranoid like Kobe, who will give you a lore in the last few seconds, or a championship team like the Spurs, to prevent you from scoring a single-digit score in a single quarter, and the referee can only do his best, and he can't let the referee go into battle shirtless and help you shoot a three-point shot, right?

With 5 minutes and 20 seconds in the third quarter, the score was 72:62, and the Knicks maintained a 10-point lead.

Zhang Yu has already scored 20 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists, and in the third quarter, he didn't score too much in the block, and he had already sent three assists halfway through the quarter.

Coach Rivers called a long timeout for the second time in the third quarter, the purpose of which was naturally to stop the Knicks' pick-and-roll cooperation.

"We canceled the joint defense in the third quarter and resumed man-to-man defense from 18 feet out. Tony, after coming on the court, lead the bunny to the inside, and when the basketball reaches the paint area, he immediately uses the bag to defend, and we set a trap on the inside to surround him! ”

The game restarted with the Celtics attacking by Garnett beating Kenyon. Martin succeeded.

The Knicks attacked, Zhang Yu dribbled and attacked, stopped at the top of the arc to observe, and the little rabbit immediately found that the Celtics' defense had changed, resuming the Fù man marking, biasing the inside line, and weakening his defense on the outside, this is to turn the defensive arrangement around, and instead defend the other Knicks players, and let him shoot on the outside?

"If you want me to make a three-way shot, then I'll give it a try."

Zhang Yu was not hypocritical at all, and immediately shot decisively on the outside......

Tony. Allen put a step and a half away, which was effective for James, but it was like no defense for Zhang Yu.

"Huh!"

Zhang Yu's three-point shot is the fourth time in this game that he has shot outside the three-point line, counting the shot this time, he shot 3 out of 4, and the shooting rate was extremely high!

Rivers doesn't think it's a good idea, he's a good coach, but it doesn't mean he can come up with a solution right away, he needs time to think about it, he needs to discuss with the coaching staff, and even listen to the players to make the right setup!

Charles. Barkley saw that the Knicks were already 11 points ahead of the Celtics, and said with a pleasant face: "I think everyone knows now why players who have played in the Finals, even role players, can have a salary 30% higher than players of the same level, and that's why!" ”

Kenny. Smith also said: "That's right, every step forward in the playoffs is equivalent to a tempering of the players, and the tempered players are equivalent to passing the guò test." ”

Charles. Barkley laughed: "That's a good analogy, but in addition, the tests of the playoffs can greatly improve the ability of players. Take the Knicks, now let them play the Heat again, I don't think the Heat will win a single game. Even if they do it again with the Cavaliers, it will still be the Knicks who will win, and they are now much better than the previous two rounds. ”

Zhang Yu made Coach Rivers' face hot with a three-pointer, and the three-pointer was like a slap in the face of the Celtics coach.

Celtics fans saw the team's defense, and scolded Rivers for being brainless, Zhang Yu's three-point shooting rate of more than 40%, how could he put a step and a half, did he think this was defending James? These fans forget that in the first two games, they also praised Rivers as a new generation of championship coaches who surpassed Popovich and Zen Master.

By the end of the third quarter, the score had become 85-74, and the Knicks led by 11 points into the final quarter.

'Don't be careless, our opponent is not easy to beat this time, the first two games have shown that, keep focusing, we can't lose again.'

D'Antoni will still not be reassured, 11 points seems like a lot, but it is not a red line of enough insurance, this game is too important for the Knicks, there is absolutely no way to make a difference, and the lead of 20 points cannot be relaxed.

In the fourth quarter of the bench, the Knicks sent a semi-main and semi-bench lineup: Nate Robinson, Zhang Yu, Wilson. Chandler, Kenyon Martin, Birdman Anderson.

Zhang Yu and Ken Yang. Martin was substituted in the final three minutes of the third quarter, and D'Antoni's intention was to let the two play for five minutes in the fourth quarter, then switch down for three minutes of rest, and then switch to the two for a showdown in the final four minutes.

Rivers made a wrong step and did not expect Zhang Yu to play at the beginning of the fourth quarter, and did not make relevant arrangements for this.

Celtics player on the field: Rajan. Rondo, Tony. Aaron, Paul. Peirce, Glenn. Davis, Mickey. Moore.

The Knicks didn't have David Lee on the court, Kenyon. Martin and Birdman Anderson don't have mid-range shooting ability, and the old champion doesn't have any mid-range shooting ability, but his stability is too poor.

Kenyon. Martin scored 8 points today, and the old champion's offensive desire is still very high, whether there is a chance to cut to the basket, which involves a lot of defensive energy from Garnett, which is one of the reasons why the Celtics' defense today is not as solid as the first two games.
