In the second game, the Knicks relied on home-court advantage at home and won the game again.
Changed the aggregate score to 2-0.
In Game 3, the Knicks traveled to the home court of the Indiana Pacers.
This time, the Knicks were unable to maintain their win and were returned to play at home, with the in-form Indiana Pacers winning the game.
However, in this game, the two teams played back and forth.
There is no one-sided trend.
Although the Knicks lost their home-court advantage, they still maintained a great threat to the Indiana Pacers.
The two teams are constantly overtaking each other.
In the end, in the fourth quarter of the game, the Indiana Pacers' Reggie Miller suddenly broke out, scored three three-pointers in three minutes, and completed a two-plus-one score to score 12 points, successfully establishing the Indiana Pacers' advantage in the score and winning the game.
In the fourth quarter of the game, the Knicks regained their strength and won a valuable victory on the road under the command of Han Ning.
changed the score to 3-1 and successfully won the match point in the first round of the playoffs!
By Game 5, the Knicks were back on their home court.
It's just a pity that the Knicks didn't win this round of playoffs in this game back at home.
Instead, the Indiana Pacers completed a Jedi counterattack.
In the end, with a slight advantage of 2 points, he won this game.
The aggregate score was changed to 3-2.
The Knicks also have 2 match points.
The Knicks and Indiana Pacers played a total of six games in the first round of the playoffs.
The Knicks finally won the playoffs.
Didn't let the Indiana Pacers drag this round of the playoffs into the tiebreaker.
In the sixth game, they won this game comfortably on the road.
In this sixth game, the Indiana Pacers players seem to be in a bit of poor form.
From the very beginning of the game, the Knicks easily took a big lead.
And this lead was maintained until the end.
Reggie Miller, who played extremely well in the previous games, was also dumb in this game.
In the end, the Knicks successfully advanced to the next round of the playoffs with a total score of 4-2.
However, compared to other teams that have made the playoffs, the Knicks' playoff round has taken a bit longer.
Most of the other teams are within 5 games and the final result comes in.
Therefore, in this regard, the Knicks still suffer a little.
After all, the Knicks' players have several fewer days to rest and recover than their players on other teams.
With a win over the Indiana Pacers, the Knicks face up to their next playoff opponent.
Fourth and fifth place in the East is the winner between the Boston Celtics and the Orlando Magic.
Orlando Magic!
Yes!
The Orlando Magic, who are in fifth place, have left the Boston Celtics behind.
And, in just four games!
It can be said that the Orlando Magic swept the Boston Celtics directly.
This also made many fans who thought that the Orlando Magic had a championship hope very excited.
And in the span of those four games, Dwight Howard has been even more impressive.
The average of 20+10 data per game has made many Dwight Howard fans go crazy on the Internet.
There are even many people who are starting to boast that Dwight Howard will completely beat the Knicks in the playoffs.
Replace Da Yao and become the league's active No. 1 center player!
So much so that even Dwight-Howard himself somewhat agrees with such a statement.
It also made the rest of the Orlando Magic feel that they really have a chance of winning a championship this season.
Especially after seeing the Knicks take six games to win against the Indiana Pacers.
They even feel that the strength of the Knicks has begun to regress.
The last time they lost to the Knicks, they weren't ready.
This time, the Orlando Magic, who have a few more days of recuperation time than the Knicks, have no possibility of losing!
It's just that everyone is ignoring one thing.
Or rather, ignoring one person!
That's Kurt Thomas!
As the last player in the Knicks' injury wave who has not yet recovered.
At this point, he was fully recovered.
By the time Game 5 of the first round of the playoffs was played, he had already received approval from the team doctor to return to the team for daily training.
And from this day to the first game of the second round of the playoffs, there are 7 days!
Kurt Thomas's form has recovered to a great extent.
It can be said that the current Knicks are already in a complete state.
It's no longer in the eyes of the Orlando Magic players, the Knicks who print the Indiana Pacers still need 6 games!
.................
Finally, it's time for Game 1 of the second round of the playoffs.
Han Ning took the Knicks players to the Madison Garden arena.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
"Roar! Roar! Roar! ”
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
As soon as they walked onto the court, the Knicks fans let out extremely strong shouts.
Obviously, Knicks fans are full of confidence in the Knicks.
Players from both sides enter the stadium to warm up.
In the commentary box, Barkley and Smith were chatting.
"Barkley, who do you think will win today's game?!" Smith asked with a smile.
Barkley shook his head lightly and said, "Of course it's the Knicks!" ”
Smith was slightly surprised when he heard this.
Hurriedly asked, "Why?!" ”
"When the Knicks won against the Indiana Pacers, it was very difficult to win. In comparison, the Orlando Magic, who won all four games and swept the Boston Celtics, looks stronger, right?! ”
After hearing Smith's words, Barkley seemed a little dismissive.
said with a smile: "Smith, don't forget, the last time the Knicks and the Orlando Magic played against each other, the Knicks taught the Orlando Magic a good lesson!" ”
"This game will be no different!"
After hearing Barkley's explanation, Smith was a little speechless.
He almost forgot that his partner had become a brainless blow for the Knicks.
Even if there is no reason, they will make up a reason for themselves.
But today, he and Barkley really have the same opinion!
