David Lee has a knack for splitting the ball, and he can play on both wings and high post.

Zhang Yu has already attracted most of the Celtics' defense on the offensive end, and under the heavy siege of the Green Shirts, he can no longer juggle the task of organizing the team's offense, but David Lee can act as a transit station on the wings and the free-throw line to provide support.

David Lee receives the basketball at all three positions, either by shooting himself or by drawing the ball again to other teammates after attracting the defense again. At this time, Crawford and Wallace can create shooting opportunities if they are ambushed outside the 45-degree three-point line and in the bottom corner, receiving a ball from David Lee.

And these two can break through again when they receive basketball, and then the Celtics' defensive formation will naturally be torn apart by the Knicks' continuous break-through shots, thus revealing the gap.

But today they didn't have a chance to figure out whether this style of play had any effect, the Celtics offensive end, Pierce received a breakthrough from Rondo, hit a 16-foot mid-range shot in the right ribs, the difference between the two teams has become 11 points after this goal, and the rest of the time with the Celtics' defense, it is basically difficult for the Knicks to turn the game around.

Although D'Antoni knew that the game was basically over, he still called a timeout and arranged for David Lee to act as the team's second point of action to share the offensive pressure for Zhang Yu.

After the restart, Zhang Yu continued to choose to break through, and this time his target became David Lee.

After blocking and dismantling with Zhang Yu, the Knicks center will pull down the left and right wings and wait to receive the ball, and Crawford and Wallace will form a triangle with David Lee according to the direction he pulls. It's a tactical run similar to the Lakers' triangle offense.

Zhang Yu gave the ball to David Lee, and the Knicks had three chances at once, David Lee could shoot from the middle, and Crawford and Wallace were one in the bottom corner. The other had a split second three-point chance at the 45-degree three-point line. At this time, half of the Celtics' defensive strength was still concentrated on Zhang Yu, and they couldn't take into account the Knicks triangle at all.

The Celtics plan to divide the Knicks' Zhang Yu and other players, D'Antoni's move is to calculate, if you want to divide, then I will use the other four players except Zhang Yu to defeat you.

In the final six minutes of the game, Crawford and Wallace scored back-to-back points.

The Celtics tried to cut out Zhang Yu and David Lee's passes. Rivers saw at a glance that the key to this set of tactics was David Lee, and once David Lee was missing, Zhang Yu would be separated from the team again. The Knicks' bullshit triangle is useless to stand stupidly on the other end.

No matter what tactics, you must first have the ball in your hand to execute, and the basketball can't be passed, let alone the triangle. A hundred horns are also in vain!

However, the Celtic set-up didn't have much effect this time. Once they disperse their forces to defend David Lee, then the Knicks' outside line will completely leak out. Zhang Yu can directly distribute the basketball to Crawford or Wallace outside the 45-degree three-point line, and there is no need for David Lee to do the transfer, and the Celtics are not enough.

Coach Rivers couldn't think of a way to crack the Knicks' offense for a while, and in the last half of the quarter, the Knicks, who had been suppressed by the Celtics in this game, were a little crazy on the offensive end. Wallace and Crawford's three-pointers went in one after the other, thankfully the Celtics had a big enough advantage before. The Big Four could still score on the offensive end, with the Green Shirts barely holding on to their victory before the end of the game.

The Knicks eventually chased the score to 102-108. The New Yorkers can already press the Celtics in the final stage, but unfortunately they don't have enough time, if you can give them another half a quarter?

It is still unknown who killed the deer.

-- The New York Times

"0:2, the light is dawning in despair."

The final quarter of the second game between the New York Knicks and the Boston Celtics gave New York fans a glimmer of despair, and the Knicks seemed to have found a way to fight back in a desperate situation.

Zhang Yu had 40 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals in the second game, and the Red Rabbit had done well enough to try to turn the team around in the first three quarters by relying on his personal ability. But it turns out that maybe he can win a game with a high score, but that's about it.

The ball quotient of the red rabbit has always been a point that many rabbit honey has repeatedly boasted and emphasized all day long, and Zhang Yu did not live up to expectations, and after finding that this way was not going through in the fourth quarter, he decisively sacrificed his personal data and chose to attract defense to create opportunities for his teammates.

After seeing the media's praise of Zhang Yu, D'Antoni felt extremely unbalanced, these media attributed all the credit to Zhang Yu, but blamed him for the poor defense, and now Zhang Yu has become a little hope in despair, and he, the head coach, has become the culprit of the loss.

However, although the Knicks showed that they can win in the final half of the last game, this does not affect the world's media perception of them.

The fact that the New Yorkers were able to survive in desperation shows that the Knicks have a lot of potential to tap into and that their players still have room for improvement. Especially Zhang Yu, even if the media around the world hates him, they can't help but pinch their noses and admit that the current red rabbit is surpassing LeBron. James, the rabbit, is the most promising basketball player of the 21st century and the best player in NBA history in his rookie season.

But if the Knicks want to get past the Celtics, unless the Green Shirts have an injury, it's still unlikely, and they don't have the strength to complete the comeback. The Knicks' outside line may pose a threat to the Celtics, and the optimistic media believes they can win a game or two at home, but trying to eliminate the Celtics on the outside line is the same as Chinese football can qualify with a draw.

The New York media is now starting to hype the little bully Stoudemire, the Suns' Nash and Stoudemire, and if the Knicks can get these two proud disciples of D'Anthony during the Suns, then New York really has the strength to win the championship.

Nash will face a team option this summer, with the Wind Sons becoming free agents with the Overlords in 2010, at which point the two can jump out of contract and join the Big Four in New York.

New York media broke the news that Yao Ming is also likely to jump out of his contract in 2010 and choose to take a salary cut at the end of his career to join New York, and form the F5 combination of the Megatron League with his teammates in the national team.

Many people don't believe in the news, the Knicks do have money, but salary space doesn't allow them to do so, unless the New Yorkers cut one of Crawford and Wallace, and Yao Ming, Nash, and Stoudmire all take big pay cuts.

So the question is, will Nash and Yao Ming accept a contract of about $10 million?

Will Stoudemire accept a $15 million contract?

Jamal. Crawford's contract expires in the summer of 2010, and he will likely seek a big contract with a multi-million annual salary, and if the Knicks are to pursue Nash and Stoudemire, they will certainly not be able to occupy such a hefty contract with a sixth man that will affect their salary space.

New York fans are well aware that if Crawford is not willing to take a salary cut for the championship, then the best sixth man is likely to leave New York next season, and the Knicks can only offer him an annual salary of 8 million at most, but Crawford may not agree to take a pay cut to stay with the team in his prime.

Gerrard. Wallace has signed a seven-year contract, with a player option until at least 2012, and his contract is $9 million a year.

Even if Nash, Yao Ming, and Xiao Si are willing to take a salary cut for the championship, then simply calculate, Nash 10 million + Stoudemire 15 million + Gerrard. Wallace 9 million + Yao Ming 10 million, the Knicks basically have no salary space to give Crawford a big contract, and they still have to leave about 10 million space to sign some role players, so they can't just play with six people, right?

Either way, the media is certain that the Knicks are bound to have a big change next season, and they may sign some short-term contracts to make room for big fish in 2010. Even David Lee, who has a lot of potential, believes that the Knicks will not keep him, and it is impossible for the New Yorkers to leave valuable space for a player who is not in the plan, and there will be no place for him after Xiao Si comes.

The New York media and fans are confident that in 2010, whether it is Yao Ming or Snash Jr., or even Wade, Bosh and Gorilla...... In short, they will inevitably have a big harvest, because they have Zhang Yu, the strongest rookie in history, as a bait.

Just like the Lakers have Kobe Bryant and the Cavaliers have James, all big-name free agents who want to win championships and veterans who want to hug their thighs without rings must consider coming to the Knicks first when their first choice is to come to the Knicks.

Zhang Yu is different from other superstars, he is a rookie, and he does not need to estimate the team's salary cap for future contract extensions, and the Knicks can use the rookie clause to give Zhang Yu a maximum salary contract on the premise of exceeding the luxury tax, which is very attractive to big-name free agents.

Nash + Jr. is D'Antoni's idea, Yao Ming is the idea of domestic fans, but what New York fans really want is superstars like Paul, Bosh and Wade to join.

With two consecutive losses in the playoffs, he is in danger of being eliminated, but the New York media has a big brain and has already considered the reinforcements for next season.

Just as the New Yorkers were YY, the camera moved to the West, and in Los Angeles, the second largest city in the United States, the Lakers were also in big trouble, and their team came back from a heavy defeat in Denver, losing to the Nuggets by 25 points, falling behind by a total score of 1-2, and not much better off than the Knicks.

Kobe Bryant, who turned the tide in the last game, turned into an iron maniac in this game, playing 44 minutes in the whole game, shooting 7 of 25 shots and scoring 22 points from the free throw line.

Paul. Gasol and Randolph, who returned to the home court to regain enthusiasm, exploded on the offensive end, and the Lama was distracted on the court, and the Lakers team was completely out of form in Denver, and they fell behind by as many as 30 points at one point, almost setting a new record for the largest point margin loss this season.
