Conley caught up at this time, and the Knicks went together to defend Conley. Conley, no matter how strong he was, couldn't be used as a three, and he made a quick pass to Guy on the wing, who was open at this point.

It was a great opportunity and Guy hit the ball and could certainly turn the tide of the situation.

But Guy's body can't adapt to this kind of high-intensity game, he has too many injuries, high-intensity games for a while, and immediately the state comes down, Guy is only good for the first few minutes of the game, and the back is dangerous, and it is the same at this time. Guy threw a three-pointer out and missed!

At this moment, the Grizzlies' heart was half cold, and sure enough, Guy missed the three-point shot.

On the Knicks' side, Vucevic grabbed the rebound in the backcourt, and directly made a strong pass, and the basketball went directly to Smith on the halfway line.

Smith took the ball and dribbled past Quincy in one step, and when Quincy chased behind, Smith pulled to the wing, turned around and passed the basketball to Li Feng, who followed up.

When Li Feng rushed over, Randolph barely followed, and came over and pulled Li Feng with foul moves.

He pulled Li Feng this time, and the referee's whistle sounded, but Li Feng still flew up.

Half a step inside the three-point line, Li Feng flew up and went towards the Grizzlies' basket.

Jordan jumped from the free throw line, and Li Feng was a little farther away from the free throw line, so he flew straight over.

Suddenly, all the fans and all the spectators saw that Li Feng was like a bird, flying over the entire court, starting to take off from near the three-point line.

The fans in the audience were dumbfounded, and countless people were stunned at this moment, and at this time, Li Feng reluctantly made a move. Basketball is a bit out of hand! It slammed into the basket.

Li Feng flew over the court and dunked, and at this moment, Madison Square Garden was really crazy, and the fans in the audience were crazy.

"Boom, boom!"

Madison Square Garden opened, the fans screamed wildly, and the Knicks players were all screaming like crazy.

On the side of the domestic broadcast studio, Director Sun, Director Zhang and Director Li were synchronized, and the three of them shouted together: "I, grass!" ”

Li Feng is too amazing this time. The whole stadium shook in shock, and the stadium went completely crazy.

The morale of the Knicks can no longer be described as high, it is simply crazy, crazy, in this situation.

The Knicks' defense was also even crazier, Conley just came over, and the Knicks immediately made three more saves.

Conley passed the ball to Quincy again, but Quincy also missed the shot at the home of the Whistling at this time.

This time, when the Knicks swept in another fast break. The Grizzlies are gone.

In the second half, the Grizzlies showed a gap, and Li Feng threw an extremely powerful punch, and under this punch, the Grizzlies fell to the ground.

On the one hand, the Knicks' heavy punches are too heavy. On the one hand, the Grizzly Bear's ability to resist hitting is really not good.

Li Feng attacked the basket continuously, and after the last shocking leap dunk, he defeated the crazy Grizzlies in the third quarter in one fell swoop.

The Knicks took advantage of the situation to win the game, and Li Feng scored 31 points in the third quarter. He scored 54 points in the game, bringing his average to 38.9 points per game, 3.8 points higher than Kevin Durant's 35.1 points in second place. Firmly in the league's leading scoring position.

At the same time, the Chicago Bulls lost to the Nets who returned from David Lee in Brooklyn, and the league leader position was also dominated by the New York Knicks, who have won ten in a row!

Next, the Knicks also started a six-game streak on the road, and the first opponent was the Indiana Pacers!

The Pacers are now third in the East, but he's also being chased by the Heat, and he can't relax right now.

The Pacers' goal this year is to win the championship, so against the Knicks, the Pacers will definitely not give up, and they are also going to win.

At this point, everyone was under pressure, and then the Pacers and the Knicks collided in a hurry. In such a game, neither of them can give up, which is destined to be a tough battle. There is such a tough game, and the players find it very troublesome.

However, fans and media were very excited, and ESPN booked the broadcast rights of the game early to do a national live broadcast.

The major media also started to build momentum early, and two days before the game, the Indiana media interviewed Paul George, asking George what he thought about the game.

George told reporters very frankly:

"The Knicks have played respectably this season, they're a strong and tough team. Li Feng is also a good player, but the victory must be ours because we are more determined. ”

George wanted to correspond, and Li Feng also said in an interview in New York:

"The Pacers are a strong team and they have a lot of great players. Experience is more abundant than ours, but all of this is not a reason for us to fail. We will win, because we will not back down. ”

Li Feng and George said the same, they both respected each other, but said that the victory must be ours.

Such a statement also made a comparison between the good deeds, listing various comparisons to see Li Feng and George's respective data, as well as the influence on the team.

In terms of statistics, Li Feng is superior, after all, the Pacers are different now and in their previous lives, Granger's injury has little impact, and George must be limited by his shots.

New York and the Pacers are also two teams that have a good time, the Pacers are old and mature, and New York is young and vigorous.

Two teams, two stars, for a game. Such a game is definitely going to be eye-catching.

At 10 p.m. the next day, the two teams began their official clash at Indiana's Consec Arena, which was packed to the brim.

After a simple opening ceremony, the starting lineups of the two teams were lined, and on the Knicks' side were point guard Dragic, scoring guard Rose, small forward Li Feng, power forward Monroe, and center Cousins.

The starting lineup of the Pacers is point guard George Hill, shooting guard Paul George, small forward Danny Granger, power forward David West, and center Roy Hibbert.

The Knicks' lineup is more about hardness and strength, and the scoring mainly relies on three outside lines. The inside line is pure blue collar.

The Pacers' lineup is extremely balanced, with both inside and outside, off-ball offensive players, ball-handling offense, outside long-range shots, and interior offense. The Pacers as a whole embodies balance, it is an all-pervasive balance, the team has no shortcomings at all, and this strength is out.

The starters of the two teams came out, and Joan Barry, who commented on today's game, immediately said on the commentary bench:

"Today's game has finally begun. Both the Pacers and the Knicks are now teams in the East. The lineup is also characteristic, and we will enjoy two different styles of play in such a game. ”

Magic Johnson, who was sitting next to Joanbari, also said:

"Today's game is definitely a highlight in the East, the two teams are likely to meet in the playoffs, and if they meet the winner of today's game in the playoffs, they will become a winner and loser, and put psychological pressure on each other."

"So in today's game, both teams had no way back. They all have to win! The Knicks and Pacers are tough teams, so I'm really worried about something unexpected happening in today's game. ”

Magic Johnson rarely spoke a big truth, and what is even more rare is that Magic Johnson spoke very reasonably.

At this time, Joan Barry also agreed:

"That's right, so today's referee is Crawford. The league is also afraid of accidents in such an important game! ”

Joan Barry and Magic Johnson chatter in the commentary box. On the pitch, the bald guy Crawford blew the whistle.

Cousins and Hibbert stood in the center circle, and the two men began to scramble for the ball.

Mentality changes everything, Hibbert is positive in mentality, and even more rapid in action. In the opening game, he immediately pointed the basketball to his teammate's side.

The Pacers got the ball first, George Hill came over with the ball and pressed the rhythm very slowly, Dragic gave George Hill a little pressure on his side, and George Hill immediately transferred the ball to Hibbert who ran up. Hibbert doesn't take risks with the ball either. After waiting for the ball for a while, he gave it to George Hill, who then took the ball and passed it to David West at 45 degrees on the right. David West was hoisted to Granger, who was on the waist with the ball.

Granger only made a slight move on his side, and the Knicks immediately hit hard, and at this time Granger passed the ball back to David West, and David West passed back to George Hill!

The Pacers didn't rush when they came up, they had a lot of backshots, and when they encountered trouble, they didn't rush hard, but sought the cooperation of their teammates. At this time, the maturity of the walker is fully revealed.

It's just that others are so mature, and what is even more rare is that George Hill can have such a mature performance as a young player, which is a bit demonic.

The Pacers transferred the ball on the Knicks' half court like this, the Knicks were a little hairy, and the Pacers' time was about the same, and the Pacers still didn't rush alone in the last few seconds, but David West and Granger made a cross cover, Granger came up to get the ball to attract enough defense, and suddenly distributed the ball to David West, who ran to 45 degrees, and David West made a jumper.

Defending his Rose height was completely lacking, but David West's opening game today didn't warm up and missed the shot.

Although the game is only the first round, the offensive characteristics of the Pacers are already reflected, teamwork, patience, and tacit understanding.

The Pacers missed the shot, the Knicks immediately rebounded in the backcourt, and Dragic advanced with the ball. At halftime, he blocked with Cousins, and then Dragic saw that there was no offensive opportunity, and passed the ball to Cousins, who was not an offensive player, and he transferred the ball to Li Feng in a wide range.

Li Feng took the ball before breaking through a step, and suddenly found that the Pacers' defense seemed to be a joint defense, and it seemed to be a big net, so he moved the Pacers' defense and immediately came from all directions, at least 3 people were taking care of themselves at this time.

Li Feng was surrounded and could only pass the ball to Rose, who was in the bottom corner, and Rose was a little anxious with the ball, and shot a three-pointer.

As far as Rose's three-point shooting percentage is concerned, the three-point shot is naturally off.

The Pacers didn't score points in the first round, and the Knicks didn't score points in the first round.

But not getting a point is not the same as not getting a point, the Pacers didn't get a point, it's pure bad feeling. The Knicks didn't score points, and it was the ball that was forced by the Pacers to go to the most difficult point to shoot.

The Pacers had previously used their strongest chain defense of the season against Li Feng, and it was a strategy to deliberately let go of Rose in the bottom corner.

At the end of the day, Rose missed the shot, and the Pacers were united on offense, patient and conscientious, and serious on defense. Rigorous and strategic.

The Pacers' chain defense this year is one of the strongest in the league. The characteristic of this defensive style is that it deliberately forms a state of encirclement for the opponent's strong points, and deliberately relaxes the opponent's weaknesses to a certain extent.

This defense is simple to say, but when it comes to operation, it requires a high degree of execution and a high degree of tacit understanding, and it also requires a high level of athleticism from the players. It's hard to achieve this defensive effect, but once you do, you can contain the opponent to a great extent.

Now the Pacers have done it, so they're the best team to defend this season, and the Pacers are also one of the Knicks' strongest opponents in the playoffs.

In the second round, the Pacers pushed in, and David West had been communicating with George Hill while he was pushing.

The Pacers and Spurs traded for George Hill. George Hill plays point guard, and there is a lot of distrust in the media and the outside world about George Hill, and they don't think he can handle such a huge ship. At this time, David West helped George Hill a lot, both in public and in private, and David West gave George Hill a lot of confidence.

Now at the end of the season, everyone has seen that George Hill is fully compatible with the team in the playmaking guard position. And George Hill performed very well among the Big Three, and many of the performances were eye-catching compared to George and Granger.

After George Hill and David West communicated, David West was very active in the Knicks' half. He first went to the right corner to cover, sent Hibbert safely outside the three-point line, and then immediately went to the waist to cover and send Granger up. After the most daz, David West pulled outward.

At this point, Granger ran over with a cover, and everyone in the Knicks felt that George Hill was going to pass the ball to Granger.

The Knicks just walked towards Granger when George Hill suddenly started and broke straight to the Knicks' basket.

George Hill's breakthrough was timely. The Knicks' defense was just open in the middle, and Monroe was the only one on the inside.

And Monroe's height has slowed down a bit, and George Hill took advantage of such an opportunity. Leaning on Monroe, he made a pull-up layup and easily put the basketball into the Knicks' basket.

George Hill scored the first point in the opening game, which was unexpected, but it also made sense that the Knicks focused on the Big Three defensively, and George Hill naturally had more opportunities.

George Hill scored points, the Knicks got the ball under the basket, and the Knicks saw that the Pacers were too patient in the half.

They immediately accelerated the speed of offense and defense to play a chasing offense, but in terms of retreat, the Pacers also achieved an extreme, the whole team not only retreated quickly, but also maintained a good formation.

Despite his youth and body, the Knicks couldn't find a place to talk for a while, so they could only get to the Pacers' halfcourt and turn to the position.

Rose controlled the ball, Li Feng and Monroe hurriedly gave Rose a double cover at 45 degrees, although Rose got a three-point opportunity through the double screen, but he didn't have the feeling of three points and passed the basketball to Li Feng.

As soon as Li Feng got the ball here, he immediately noticed that the three people around him were aiming their eyes at him.

At this time, Li Feng was sure that he was sure and sure that as long as he moved, the Pacers' chain defense would definitely suppress himself.

At this time, Li Feng hesitated, just when Dragic cut into the penalty area, Li Feng hurriedly passed the ball to Dragic. Dragic got the ball in the Pacers' box and wanted to force a throw.

However, the Pacers' restricted area, with Hibbert as a meat shield to fill the space, and David West, who has long hands and feet outside, to help defend the gaps, Dragic wants to play extremely difficult. He just made a move, and these two people flanked back and forth. The affected Dragic's shot was extremely abnormal, and at this time Hibbert simply picked up a rebound under the basket.

The Pacers' defense is really strong, and their protection under the basket is definitely the best in the league.

As soon as the game started, the Pacers used their experience, patience, and unity to make the Knicks' toughness and physical strength feel like they had nowhere to play.

It's a bit similar to playing for the Spurs, but the Pacers players are a little different from the Spurs players. The Spurs' players are completely aged, and the Pacers' players are old, but they are not aging, and the Pacers' players at this time are getting older, but they are still in the state before dusk.

Therefore, the walker at this time has both experience and tacit understanding, as well as strength. This feeling is a level stronger than that of the Spurs.

The Pacers were mature and patient defensively, getting the ball off the baseline and going into the Knicks' half.

The style of the Pacers is once again reflected, holding the position unhurriedly, and pressing the rhythm just right. Pass the basketball to Granger on the right and let Granger single on the right.

Granger faced Rose today, and he was not a small challenge.

However, Granger is not in a hurry, and the pace of his play does not seem to be fast at all, not fierce at all, but it is also very efficient. What you often see is that Granger isn't fast, he doesn't jump very much, but he just shoots the ball. This result is the most recalcitrant manifestation of his rational use of his body.

Now that he met Rose, who was faster than him, Granger came up and pressed to the baseline, and suddenly a big turn pressed in, and then threw a shot with his right hand.

Granger turned past Rose, but his shot was interfered with by Rose. (To be continued......)
