After the mad slaughter of the Magic, the Knicks have pushed themselves across the board and become the public enemy of the entire league

The Knicks will face a tough week ahead of them, with three strong teams – the Boston Celtics and the Texas Spurs and Mavericks.

The pre-game was full of news predicting the game between the two sides, and experts believe that despite believing that the Knicks' firepower has reached unimaginable levels, there is still a possibility of losing to the Celtics, and the team's style of restraint is important

It's not that the Knicks don't have weaknesses, they just don't expose them

ESPN basketball experts analyze the lineups of the Knicks and Celtics

Lagarondo Derrick Rose: Rondo is one of the fastest players in the league, Rose is the most balanced point guard in offense and playmaking, and neither the two nor Chris Paul have been able to secure who is the first point guard

Ray Allen SJR Smith: Both are shoot-oriented scorers, Ray Allen often defends the opponent's outside main attacker, and the game experience is far better than Smith, and the Celtics have the advantage

Paul Pierce James Harden: In this game, the Knicks have a very high probability of starting Harden, and Pierce has a physical advantage against others other than Li Feng, and Pierce has the advantage in individual ability

Kevin Garnett s Li Feng: Garnett, the core of the Cousins' most suspension, will definitely be handed over to Li Feng to face

Garnett, who is becoming more and more demonic, is not the wolf king who relied on bouncing to eat back then, Li Feng can't limit Garnett by relying on physical fitness, of course, on the offensive end, Garnett, who is beginning to get old, is also powerless against Li Feng

Kendrick Perkins Greg Monroe: Perkins is a very good blue-collar player, the Celtics don't expect him to attack, his role is to resist the opponent's strong interior line, and he can also follow the out

Monroe has an absolute advantage in other aspects except for tonnage, with stronger rebounds and mid-range shots, and Monroe has an advantage in this position

It's unlikely that the Knicks will send Kirilenko to start again

In addition to the player comparison, there are similarities in the playing styles of the two teams, especially on the defensive end, where the Celtics know how to defend the Knicks

Fortunately, the bench competition against the Knicks has the advantage

However, the game did not rely on the lineup, and most of the Celtics' positional attacks this season were launched from Garnett's cover on the line, and then through Ray Allen's running and Pierce's one-man attack, the opponent was finished

First up is Pierce, who will face either Harden or Li Feng's defense

Pierce has always had a steady career and never seems to be young or old, he's the nemesis of the light defender, but his advantage is lost against two better swingmen fighting for muscles, and Pierce's seemingly calm exterior is a non-tackle

Pierce gives the impression that when you are silent, you are silent, and when you are crazy, you are crazy

Then there's Garnett Celtic's own worst weakness

2008 was the end of Garnett's peak

Garnett used to be very attacking, turning and leaning back after a big stride, raising his hands high and hitting high shots, which is why Garnett has occupied the top star position in the league for many years, and he used this trick to almost cry his opponents

But now Garnett's shooting is far from his prime, and everyone who plays knows that if the opponent doesn't defend your shot with all his might, then the strategy is more taken care of by passing the ball and the like

On the defensive end, Garnett's long arms interfere a lot with the penetration of opponents' short passes, but the Knicks don't eat this either

Those who are familiar with the Knicks know that the Knicks don't cooperate at all, and their cooperation is that the big man pulls out to cover, and the task of grabbing the frontcourt rebound is generally not handed over to Li Feng

The interior players are constantly pulling out, which will drive the aging Garnett crazy

Secondly, the Celtics are weaker forward than before

The Celtics had the best ball-handler defender James Posey

Posey also has a three-point output in crunch time, which is the most terrifying thing about him

This kind of defender has a big role in restricting the outside line, but there is no such person on the Celtics team this year, not only is Posey missing, but the best off-ball defender Tony Allen has also gone to the Grizzlies

Once the Celtics start fouled, they're in for a bad luck

The expert's analysis was so detailed, which saved Taberdu a lot of effort, and he made arrangements after reading the media's analysis

The more this happens, the more Tyberdu has to change formations

In the dressing room before the game, Taberdu asked Ibaka:

"Sergi, if you are asked to defend Garnett in the finals, can you defend him?"

Ibaka laughed:

"Of course you can, I'll treat him to Congolese hot pot"

This kid is too confident

Tyberdu shook his head and said:

"You are honest in defense, don't keep thinking about covering him, follow up and interfere with his shooting"

Ibaka nodded

Tyberdu looked at James Harden again and said with a smile:

"James, you play shooting guard this time, but you play against Pierce on defense, do you know how to play?"

Harden Road:

"I'm stronger against Pierce, he's already weak"

The position of Harden and Li Feng is actually blurred, he defends Pierce, Li Feng defends Ray Allen, Ray Allen is an elegant scorer, his specialty is running and shooting, but if the defense is very elegant, he will be unlucky to meet Li Feng, he can't defend with a move back, and when the time comes, Harden will also have a physical advantage in playing Ray Allen

The starting guard is still Derrick Rose, Rondo is fast, but Rose also has a defensive method, and shooting can always be Rondo's dead end, as a point guard, Rondo has only shot a total of 80 three-pointers in the regular season this season, and only 20 in the playoffs so far

In the regular season, only Barkley was the only one who shot from the field, and he was very direct in his evaluation of Rondo:

"If he can have the same level of shooting as Garnett, I think he must be above the Big Three."

Barkley is definitely exaggerating, but it's also a direct reflection of how bad his shooting is

In the center position, Tyberdu sent Greg Monroe to take charge of playing against Perkins

Perkins left the basket, his scoring ability is very poor, he can shoot, but he is not accurate, Monroe can completely prevent him from killing him As for the offensive end, of course, Monroe still pulls out the mid-range shot and withdraws the Celtics' interior line

Before preparing to play, Li Feng stood in the middle of the locker room and said:

"Brothers, we've won 24 in a row, and it's not impossible to win 33 in a row, if we lose, a season's hard work will be in vain, and I believe everyone can't stop this from happening, right? What I want to say is that our strength is absolutely superior, and now there can be no more accidents, out of this door, we have to do not just play ball, but work hard, don't leave any regrets for ourselves, we have to create miracles! Win! ”

"Victory!"

The Knicks players collectively yelled and walked out of the locker room

The ratings for the opening game of the Finals surpassed that of the Knicks and Heat

The Li Feng and James duel has gimmicks, but it's not as engaging as this year

This time the stars gathered, on one side is the aging Big Three, and on the other side is the young and energetic Knicks, who are rising rapidly

No matter who you support, there is a lot to watch, and no matter who wins the championship, you will not be disappointed by the fans

The Celtics winning the championship is the most brilliant glory of the veteran, and the Big Three are one year older, and if they don't win the championship this year, the chances of Pierce's contract will expire this season, and whether it will be renewed is also a topic of concern

It's actually redundant to discuss this, Pierce has been in the Celtics since the beginning, he is an icon of Boston, even Garnett is an outsider

If he retires here, it will be more meaningful, and he will not leave the country for an extra few million yuan in his annual salary

Before the game, the starters of both sides stood on the court, and Garnett glared at Li Feng Leng and said:

"How did you hit the outside? Don't dare to play against me? ”

Li Feng smiled:

"You're about to retire, why am I embarrassed to bully you, let's play with Sergi, he has long arms, be careful not to be covered"

Garnett gritted his teeth and glared at Sergi beside him

"Defend me, are you worthy?"

Garnett wanted to put some pressure on the rookie, but Ibaka didn't care at all and responded with a smile:

"I haven't covered you yet, so when I'm done, you can stare at me like this."

Garnett was speechless

The young man with the best mentality in the Knicks is Ibaka

This guy is simple-minded.,On the court is to play.,I rarely think about anything else.,At most, when you have a chance to dunk, think about what tricks to dunk beautiful.,Other than that, it's all about conditioned reflex.,He's a guy like Sakuragi Hanamichi in the comics.

It is also an important reason why Tyberdu sent him to start, he dares to fight and will not play abnormally

With the attention of hundreds of millions of fans, the game began

After Ibaka won the jump ball and Garnett's speed was no longer comparable to that of his youth, the Celtics returned quickly and the Knicks fell into a positional battle

Rondo got to Rose's side and waited for a steal

Rose is very steady and slow to protect the ball, but always relies on his body to keep the ball within his bounds

The opening was to play Li Feng, and the Celtics didn't dare to let Ray Allen defend him, Pierce came up, and Ray Allen went to talk to Harden

Li Feng pulled to the periphery to ask for the ball

Rose passed the ball to him and headed for the bottom right corner, while Monroe also pulled outside the three-point line on the right, and Garnett followed

Garnett came out as a pick-and-roll, and Perkins didn't defend the pick-and-roll very well, dealing with Searle on the inside

Monroe is not responsible for blocking and dismantling, he just pulls out the inside line

Harden covered Li Feng in the middle, and Li Feng dribbled the ball horizontally in the high post with his back, got rid of Pierce, and misplaced against Ray Allen

This is the situation that Rivers is most afraid of, he thinks of the possibility, and Tyberdu also thinks of it, and the two have worked together for a year and know each other

Lei Allen had no choice but to change Li Feng

Li Feng entered the penalty area from the right side, leaned on Ray Allen with his back, dribbled to the inside line, easily squeezed into the penalty area, turned to the middle and at the same time Harden pulled out the outside line, keeping Pierce away from Li Feng and creating a singles opportunity for him

Li Feng turned to the middle, Ray Allen was knocked out of position, turned slowly, Li Feng took a step towards the basket, Perkins hurriedly made up for the defense, jumped up and blocked

Li Feng took the ball and shrank in the air, did not force it, and sent the ball out of the air after a feint, he turned around in the air, leaned on Perkins, and gently sent the ball to the basket with his right backhand around the opponent's body

Ibaka has been told by Taberdu thousands of times before he comes on the field, his attention is very concentrated, he catches the ball steadily, and he jumps up and scores with both hands!

Ray Allen's defense Li Feng has suffered from his height and it is even more impossible for Guy Baka, the Knicks gave the Celtics a dismount at the beginning, Weavers frowned, if the Knicks return to play like this, it will be troublesome, Celtic can only change the formation, the first joint defense in the next round

The Celtics attacked, and Li Feng targeted Ray Allen on the perimeter

Rondo dribbled to the front of the league and passed to Pierce, who in turn passed to Garnett, who singled Ibaka in the low post

Although Ibaka has a slightly larger tonnage, Garnett's strength is not bad, and the confrontation is superior

He dribbled the ball against Ibaka and hit it with his back to the inside

Ibaka pushed hard, not retreating too fast, and Garnett turned to the middle and made a trick, stepping back and throwing a jumper

Ibaka turned slowly, covered Garnett and colored, the ball went in!
