Chapter 78: The "Record" of Walking (9600 Words Chapter)
For the shooters of the '90s, it's hard to imagine a future in which the NBA will have a series of rules that favor outside players.
Alan Houston faced Woshan Leonard's ferocious defense in the first quarter, and in the second quarter, he still had no touch after coming on.
Pat Riley didn't rotate as regularly as G1, and in the rotation phase, the starting Tim Hardaway, Jamal Mashburn, and Mourning were still on the field;
Just put on Dan Marley and Isaac Austin.
Mourning played the first quarter without rest, and was still full of energy after the second quarter.
The New York fans at the scene saw Tim Hardaway break through Chris Childs' defense with a cross-step dribble at the top of the arc, and Mourning scored two more points in the paint area to assist the basket, only to follow a wild boo.
At 29:27, with 7 minutes and 34 seconds left in the half, the Heat managed to overtake the score.
'Coach Van Gundy's timeout was very timely and, obviously, Starks didn't feel good tonight and Alan Houston was completely limited.
'If we want to keep the home stadium, we need to get the main squad back as soon as possible.'
Commentator John Andaris felt like he had eaten another Xiangwei chocolate.
After Starks threw in a three-pointer, he began to hit the iron later, did not bottom out, failed to break through, and the jumper pull was the real performance.
Jeff Van Gundy would certainly continue to trust a few men if the opponent followed the Irons, but the situation now is that the Heat seem to have found an offensive touch and scored frequently.
Back on the bench, Starks thumped his chair with an angry look on his face, and he was once again lost in the face of the defenders of the strikers.
The short lineup announced its failure, "Big Mom" played the No. 4 position, unable to withstand the impact of the opposite side, Jeff Van Gundy could only sit in front of everyone at this time and send out chicken soup loudly:
"Believe in your shot, all we have to do is shoot decisively when we have the opportunity."
"Don't care about the score, we still have plenty of time!"
Alan Houston, who was encouraged, was silent this time, and Dan Marley and Jamal Mashburn took turns defending, and both continued their defensive strategy in the first quarter.
Sensing the lack of confidence of the players, Jeff Van Gundy had no head, so he insisted that Alan Houston compete with the opponent, turned his head to Li You's side and said:
"Lee, you're partnering with Chris!"
With backup tactics enabled, the Knicks opted for a two-point guard lineup at this time.
Of course, Lee Woo suffered a loss in height in the No. 2 position, which was just a choice that Alan Houston had to adjust his condition.
"I'm ready!"
Li You, who had already moved his body, agreed to come down and bumped fists with Chris Childs on the side by the way.
Oakley patted Alan Houston on the shoulder in reassurance, and Ewing looked serious, suddenly missing a scoring point and suddenly felt that he should take on more responsibility.
After the timeout, Pat Riley still folded his arms and looked calm, and it only took one game for him to basically figure out the Knicks' routine.
It's not hard to limit pitchers, and after the Heat concentrate the ball, the role players have completely turned into tool man play, and the defense is doing their best, and the offense is waiting for the cake.
The game played for more than 4 minutes, and only scored 5 points in total, and seeing the return of the main lineup, Madison Square Garden once again erupted in huge cheers:
“Let's go Knicks! Let's go Knicks! Let's go Knicks! ”
The Knicks took the double point guard, and Dan Marley immediately guarded Li You's side, standing in the bottom left corner, and began to stealthily pull his hands.
Chris Childs faced Tim Hardaway's close defense, approached the top of the arc, and began to protect the ball sideways.
When Oakley came to the free throw line, Lee quickly walked up to the line and cut sideways, and Dan Marley, who had been prepared, immediately stepped off the line and bypassed Oakley, who was covering in the elbow area.
When Li You received a cross pass on the right wing outside the three-point line, facing Dan Marley, who came up on the defensive, there was no unnecessary shaking, and he immediately put the ball with his right hand and broke through.
Hurriedly adjusting the center of gravity of his body, Dan Marley desperately slid to the left back, Li You lowered his center of gravity, broke through to the right blocking area, and suddenly blew up the ball on the spot with his right hand.
The sudden emergency stop made Li You shake out half of his body, and then quickly changed direction in front of his body, and the moment he switched to his left hand, he took advantage of the opponent's step forward to defend and accelerated to break through again.
Isaac Austin on the inside hurriedly moved quickly, ready to help protect the basket, but Li You approached the paint area after getting rid of the defense, quickly closed the ball between the marches, and completed the throw with his right hand!
"Bang!"
After the basketball hit the board, it fell into the net accurately, and Li You's silky breakthrough made the commentator Mav Albert raise his voice again:
"Perfect rhythm, Lee equalised for us as soon as he came on!"
Dan Marley, who has rich defensive experience, took the initiative to raise his hand to signal the change of defense, but this season was affected by injuries, his physical condition declined, and his explosiveness was no longer there, and he could not keep up with the rhythm of Li You.
When Jamal Mashburn was with the Mavericks, he was the firepower of the "3J" combination, with excellent singles ability, and he can also be called the league's number one small forward!
As a result, he left Dallas and came to the Heat, completely becoming a tool man.
The offensive end has been greatly reduced, and the defensive end has more to contribute, and the depressed Jamal Mashburn can only follow the veteran and signal that he will defend in the next round.
“Defense! Defense! Defense! ”
In the midst of the defensive cheers, Chris Childs led the defense of Tim Hardaway throughout the game, and the tactical system of both teams is almost identical, with both emphasizing pressing.
Mourning on the inside began to play again, facing Oakley's top defense, left flank, and his back to the ball.
Tim Hardaway sent a pass and immediately motioned for his teammate to pull away, and on the right flank, Lee Woo stood in front of tool man Dan Marley, watching the inside battle.
On the top line, Mourning quickly turned in the direction of the baseline, but soon encountered Ewing's help defense, and wanted to find Isaac Austin inside, but passed the ball directly out of the baseline
"Oh!!"
The fans in the front row followed with a loud cheer, and the excellent defense also boosted the morale of the team.
Ewing hurriedly sent the baseline ball, Chris Childs received the ball, Tim Hardaway stepped forward to delay, and the Heat everyone had quickly retreated.
Lee Yoo had already run past half-court, came to the left flank, noticed that the defender in front of him had become Jamal Mashburn, and immediately reminded Larry Johnson loudly:
"Go to the baseline position!"
"Big Mom" understood it, cut around the line, and then quickly moved to the right block, and Chris Childs sent a pass just after half-time.
After receiving the ball, Larry Johnson held the ball in his right hand, crushed the break, pushed Dan Marley to the right baseline position, began to clatter, close to the paint area, and immediately turned and threw a backward jumper!
"Smack! Chirping! ”
Dan Marley struggled to defend and the batter fouled, allowing "Big Mom" to stand at the free throw line.
John Crotty took the opportunity to replace Tim Hardaway at this time to give the core of the backcourt a break.
Pat Riley was also very pleased with the player's performance, taking the initiative to pat Tim Hardaway on the shoulder.
'We're getting back to the rhythm of the game and it's important to find the edge on the pitch.
"Big Mom" hit both free throws, and commentator John Andris was grinning again.
At 29:31, halfway through the second quarter, the Knicks finally regained the lead.
The Heat's point of attack was completely Mourning, only this time Oakley desperately went around the front, so that John Crotty on the left wing did not dare to pass the ball easily.
After waiting a few seconds, he was forced to pass the ball on the line, on the right wing, Dan Marley received the ball, and again hoisted the ball to Isaac Austin in the low post on the right.
Ewing did not choose to stick to the defense, but only stepped forward to block the opponent when Isaac Austin was about to take the baseline and arch to the basket after receiving the ball.
Encountering a tough defense, Isaac Austin had just switched to holding the ball in his left hand and was about to go on the line, but Li You suddenly grabbed it.
Isaac Austin was forced to stop the ball, trying to take advantage of his height advantage and throw the ball to Dan Marley on the outside, but the passing intention was too obvious, and the moment he threw the ball, he was intercepted by Li You.
After completing the steal, Li You rushed with the ball, and everyone on the Heat team hurriedly retreated, and the fans also burst into cheers.
Dan Marley stepped forward to defend at the first time, Li You did not stop the ball, approached the middle position, his right hand went around the ball behind his back sharply, and after dodging the defense, he continued to accelerate with the ball in his left hand.
Losing his defensive position, Dan Marley was forced to slide, chase with all his might, and came to the left flank, where he just got up to the defense, and Li You took advantage of the situation and pulled back with a large cross-step.
Quickly pulling the ball and switching to his right hand, Dan Marley lost his defensive position, and before he could jump up to block, Li You was already close to the ball outside the three-point line, and then quickly jumped to shoot!
"Huh!" Three-point shot hollow into the net!
“Yes!! Lee hit the first three-pointer of the game! From the transition offense! ”
The beautiful three-pointer made the fans scream with excitement, and the commentator Marv Albert also returned to his smiling face, and his tone became a lot lighter.
At 29:34, Li You's three-point shot instantly brought the difference to 5 points.
If you score, it's a good ball, and if you don't score, you're a blind chicken, and Pat Riley, who was on the sidelines, began to frown, glanced at the time, and did not ask for a timeout, but continued to signal to give the ball to the inside.
Jamal Mashburn still didn't get a chance and continued to act as a toolman, watching Mourning arch into the paint and turn and shoot right in front of the basket.
At 31:34, in the next few minutes, the two sides began to strike again.
Ewing's low post attack missed, and in turn, the Heat scored and hit, and Dan Marley's three-pointer was interfered with by Lee You.
Lee Woo cut cross-wire, and his three-pointer from the right wing was interfered with by Jamal Mashburn, and the iron followed.
Dan Marley received a long rebound, a rare transition offense, and Jamal Mashburn, who received the ball and broke through to the basket, was interfered with by the "big mom" who returned to the defense, and knocked out of the frame.
Next, the two sides banged iron, and the scene was lively, but the score did not move for half a day, and Jeff Van Gundy was anxious and shouted on the sidelines, but he couldn't change the situation on the field.
Mourning was about to make free throws again, and taking advantage of this opportunity, both sides changed to the main lineup, two free throws, and Ewing immediately protected the backcourt rebound.
"Oh!!"
The Knicks were still ahead, and the New York fans at the scene shouted happily when they saw Mourning slapping his thigh.
Ewing, who played iron, took the initiative to come to the top of the arc to block and dismantle this time, and Li You, who returned to the No. 1 position, faced Tim Hardaway's close defense, and wrapped the ball behind his right hand sharply.
Catching the ball with his left hand, he lowered his center of gravity and passed through Ewing to the left, and Tim Hardaway, who was chasing behind him, wanted to take the opportunity to intercept, but Li You quickly pushed the ball and changed direction, just past the opponent's steal.
Facing Mo Ning, who came up to assist in defense, the moment Li You caught the ball with his right hand, he took advantage of the opposite direction to slide to the left, suddenly accelerated the rhythm of dribbling, and once again circled the ball behind his back by a large margin.
Mourning lost his defensive position, and Li You, who switched to his left hand, continued to accelerate and went straight to the basket.
Jumping in the paint area, Li You was hit by Mo Ning who was chasing up and lost his center of gravity, and before the opponent completed the block, his left hand immediately threw the ball to the rebound!
"Squeak! Bang."
At the moment of the whistle, the basketball was transferred to the basket after the high game, and Li You on the floor waved his fist in celebration, and the cheers rose again.
"The Heat are also in penalty mode, and this is an opportunity for us!"
Commentator John Andalis was also anxious when he watched the double iron, and commentator Marv Albert glanced at the technical statistics and added:
"Mourning also has three fouls, and maybe, the Heat will make adjustments."
Lee Yoo was pulled up by Alan Houston and Larry Johnson, rubbed for a while, adjusted his breath before standing on the free throw line, and hit a solid free throw to help the Knicks break the scoring drought.
Tim Hardaway kept complaining to the referee that the Knicks were deliberately delaying time, but the referee just tilted his head and motioned for the game to continue.
At 31:37, seeing that the point difference was widened, this attack, Tim Hardaway held the ball in his right hand, dribbled under his crotch, pretended to break through, and then pulled out directly at the top of the arc!
"Huh!" Sudden cold arrow success.
"Shh
The Heat hit their first three-pointer of the game, and Madison Square Garden booed.
With 2:06 left in the half, both sides scored less than 40, and in the final moments, it was again iron and free throws.
With Woshan-Leonard's three-pointer missed, the halftime was over, and at 38:40, the Knicks still led the game.
The players on both sides walked quickly to the players' tunnel, the pace of the game was slow, there were many confrontations, and everyone needed to breathe a sigh of relief
"The Heat seem to have found the key to limit us and played a great defense in the half!"
"Compared to G1, Alan Houston only has 5 points in the account at the moment, and Lee has another 14 points in the half, what a reliable lad!"
Commentator Mav Albert looked at the technical statistics of the two balls pulling along, bitterly happy, and praised Li You again.
"It's not a good sign, Pat Riley knows the Knicks too well, G2 has made a targeted defense, and we have to protect the home court."
Scoring is difficult to see with the naked eye, and commentator John Andalis did not predict the rest of the series, as the situation is already obvious
5-of-9 in the half, 1-of-3 from beyond the three-point line, and 3-of-3 from the free throw line, Lee Woo had 14 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal and 1 turnover.
After scoring the team's highest score and returning to the locker room, Lee Woo was also in a low mood, and the Heat seized the defensive point.
Ewing also lost his smile, 3-of-10 from the field, 2-of-4 from the free-throw line, and only scored 8 points
If it weren't for Mourning's 5-of-9 free throws, the Heat would have taken the lead.
Jeff Van Gundy didn't care about the straight suit at this time, returned to the locker room and threw his coat aside, and then said loudly:
"Hold on! Believe me, they're no longer good. ”
"Hold on to the end, victory is ours!"
“.”
After pouring down the thick chicken soup, everyone felt better, the plan couldn't catch up with the changes, and they had to continue to boil in the second half!
At the beginning of the third quarter, the Heat continued the game strategy of the first half, continuing to fiercely defend Alan Houston.
Ewing missed a shot in the paint area after the pick-and-roll, and Larry Johnson grabbed the rebound and made a layup to score two points for the Knicks.
The Heat attacked, a simple high-low cooperation, Mourning missed the basket, Ewing fought to grab the backcourt rebound, but showed a painful expression, did not stand firmly and fell to the floor, and made a direct mistake.
Jeff Van Gundy slapped his forehead and hurriedly beckoned veteran Mark Williams to the court.
The New York fans at the scene saw Ewing limping down, and after exclaiming, they could only give applause as a sign of encouragement.
"Too bad, Pat is out injured, and our frame protection ability will definitely drop!"
Commentator Marv Albert felt that the game was going to be cold, and commentator John Andalis didn't make a sound, and the two short insiders couldn't withstand the Heat's strong attack.
Kicking off the baseline ball, Tim Hardaway received the ball on the left wing, took advantage of the Knicks' side to just complete the substitution, dribbled the ball outside the three-point line, and then quickly changed direction in front of the body, accelerating and cutting straight inside.
Li You had already prepared for this, and did not choose to stick to the defense, but quickly slid to the left rear.
When Tim Hardaway thought he had passed the defense and picked up a basket with his right hand in the paint area, Lee You, who rushed up from behind, jumped high and squeezed off the opponent's layup with his left hand!
Tim Hardaway stumbled and lost control of the basketball, Oakley controlled the ball, and then quickly threw the ball to Lee, and the Knicks suddenly picked up, and everyone accelerated across the halfcourt.
When Li pushed to the right flank, Vochan Leonard hurriedly came up to help the defense, Li You slowed down, dribbled the ball under the crotch with his right hand, and looked up at the basket while feintting to close the ball.
Woshan-Leonard pounced forward, but Li You suddenly lowered his center of gravity, quickly pushed the ball with his left hand and changed direction, passed the defense in one step, and cut in quickly on the right flank.
PJ Brown, who retreated to the basket, hurriedly stepped forward to help defend, saw Li You's back pass in the middle, and then turned his head, and Buck Williams, who had just been replaced on the court, went down the middle and made an easy layup.
"Wonderful fit! We need such an easy score! ”
Commentator Marv Albert saw the conversion offense score and praised it again and again.
Switching offense and running, you can get a chance to score, in daily training, everyone in the Knicks team is no longer surprised, playing routines, it is completely instinctive reaction.
Li You, who returned to the defense, patted his head and signaled to go around the front defense and wrap the inside line.
Ewing on the bench will shout a few times when he first sees Mourning attacking on the inside.
But as Oakley continued to go around the front, the defenders on the line continued to wrap up, and the inside attack failed.
This time, Mourning, who was caught in the middle of the attack, wanted to throw the ball to Jamal Mashburn, who was receiving on the left flank, but the pass was too strong, and he couldn't catch the pass steadily, and flew directly out of the touchline.
“Wow!!”
A successful defense would have the New York fans cheering loudly, and Lee Woo also accelerated the pace of the attack at this time, blocking on the flanks and giving Oakley a look in advance.
PJ Brown and Tim Hardaway slid back and forth to break through to the right block, and Lee saw the opportunity to deliver a precise pass.
At the elbow area on the right side of the free throw line, Oakley, who had done a fake cover, was unguarded after receiving the ball, and hit a mid-range jumper steadily!
Pat Riley signaled to steady, Tim Hardaway controlled the time, broke through the whistle, and was interfered with by Oakley, and the basketball slammed out of the basket.
Li You grabbed the rebound, took the ball and rushed forward, and sent a long-distance ground pass before halftime.
Larry Johnson, who was quick and down, successfully caught the ball in front of everyone, approached the paint area, rushed up in three steps, and easily completed the two-handed dunk!
The powerful dunk ignited the atmosphere of Madison Square Garden at once, and the sound became louder and louder!
Tim Hardaway missed consecutive breakaways, and this time he scored three points directly after blocking on the right wing!
originally wanted to pretend to be X, but found that the Knicks were about to serve the baseline ball, and Tim Hardaway hurriedly chased after Li You's side.
Constantly giving physical confrontation, the two were entangled to the top of the arc, just dribbling past the three-point line, Li You, who was holding the ball in his right hand, quickly dribbled behind his back, completed the retreat with the momentum, quickly closed the ball outside the three-point line, and then threw the ball away!
"Huh!" Three-point shot hollow into the net!
“Yes! Wonderful response ball! Tim Hardaway's shot didn't make any defensive moves! ”
The Knicks picked up the pace, and commentator Marf Albert followed.
Tim Hardaway was in place, with the cheers of the fans in his ears, and such an offensive choice was indeed unexpected by him.
The face is getting more and more ugly, and the rookie players are competing with each other, which is a loss of face for veteran stars!
At 42:49, after a wave of rapid offense, the Knicks led by seven points.
Jeff Van Gundy hung up again at this point, standing on the sidelines and screaming.
Ewing is on the floor, and he can still command twice, but when Lee You is in control of the game, he can't predict some offensive options.
Oakley's elbow jumper followed, and Alan Houston's off-ball cut also scored under the basket.
After the Knicks' two short men inside mentioned the elbow area, Lee Yoo was greatly delayed, and the Heat's defense couldn't keep up.
Oakley's middle distance, successfully punished the opponent!
He tried to suppress the rhythm of the match, but as the match progressed, successive mistakes by Woshan Leonard and Mourning allowed Lee to seize the opportunity again.
Mourning's return pass was directly tackled by Li You, and at the top of the arc, Tim Hardaway could only desperately retreat at this time!
The noise at Madison Square Garden was getting louder and louder, and Lee You, who had successfully copied the ball, was able to speed up with his right hand against Tim Hardaway's defense.
The two rushed into the paint area, and as they went, Li You suddenly dribbled quickly behind his back, and jumped in reverse while catching the ball with his left hand.
After completing the change of hands behind his back, Li You suddenly shook and completely shook off Tim Hardaway on his side, and without waiting for the opponent to make up for the defense, he grabbed the ball with one hand with his right hand and threw lightly!
"Bang!"
The basketball was put into the basket, Madison Square Garden was completely boiling, and Li You's fancy passing actions caused the fans to shout wildly.
“Shake and bake! It's so exciting! Lee's signature move! Tim Hardaway was shaken to a stake! ”
Commentator Marv Albert was so excited that he screamed, and it was heaven to see such action in the playoffs!
Tim Hardaway, who was shown off, couldn't hold back any longer, and turned around and pushed.
It's just that Li You, who landed on the ground, was prepared, dodged sideways, and pushed away Tim Hardaway, who took the initiative.
When Tim Hardaway tried to get back face, he was hugged by the referee on the baseline, and soon players from both sides surrounded him.
"MVP fourth? Best Team Player? Falk Squid! We should change positions! ”
Li You, who was pulled away, began to hide his mouth, and mocked the annoyed Tim Hardaway with a grin.
Hearing that the honor he cared about the most was ridiculed, Tim Hardaway was so angry that he kept twisting his body and scolding:
"Let go of me! Shet! You deserve to talk trash with me, too! Hell rookie, shit all-star! ”
The game was interrupted, and Oakley pulled Li You back to the bench with a smile, and the atmosphere group stepped forward to high-five in celebration.
The New York fans at the scene stopped pretending, shouting and scolding, as if they felt that the victory was in hand, and the more they mocked Pat Riley:
"Traitor! You're not welcome in New York! ”
"Get out of New York with that ugly basketball idea!"
When the two sides returned to the court again, the enraged Tim Hardaway was in no mood to press the clock, and he went to the basket for several rounds in a row.
The overly obvious offensive intent allowed the Knicks to defend calmly, and Oakley saw the opportunity and knocked the opponent to the floor
Mo Ning wanted to stand up for his teammates, but he almost received an old punch from "Big Mom".
Seeing that this was about to clash, the referee blew the whistle in succession and pulled the two sides apart again.
Tim Hardaway, who was lying on the floor, was smashed to the ground and after hitting the penalty shot, no more open goals were scored.
Li You took advantage of the opponent's iron to speed up the pace of the game, and Oakley and Buck Williams also began to make free throws.
At the end of the third quarter, the game was stretched out and the two sides began to exchange free throws.
It wasn't until the Knicks' final offense, Lee Woo's defensive throws against Tim Hardaway, that the long third quarter was completely over.
At 20:27 in the single quarter, at the end of the third quarter, at 58:67, the Knicks have a 9-point lead!
Alan Houston quietly stole chickens under the basket, hit with his back, and scored 8 points in the free throw in the first quarter, Li You fished in troubled waters, 3 of 4, 1 of 1 from beyond the three-point line, and got 7 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal.
On the bench, Ewing was a little dazed, and he took the lead when he got off the field:
"Did you do it on purpose?"
It's just that everyone didn't care about the gorilla's expression, and Jeff Van Gundy pulled his throat and sent out chicken soup:
"Control your mistakes, don't give the opponent any chance, hold on to one more game, the victory is ours!"
Victory is on the horizon and no one wants to be overturned at the last minute.
In the final quarter of the game, the main lineups of the two sides continued to play, and the Heat continued to strengthen their defense at this time.
After Ewing rested for a quarter, his physical strength recovered a lot, and he spared no effort on the defensive end, which made Mourning make another mistake.
Pat Riley, who was on the sidelines, saw that the Knicks were running like crazy when they seized the opportunity, and subconsciously shook his head and paced on the sidelines with a serious expression.
The two sides continued to fight iron, and the New York fans at the scene didn't care about Xiangwei chocolate at this time, as long as they could win, they stood up and shouted.
Tim Hardaway couldn't move at this time, he only rested for a total of 2 minutes in the first three quarters of the game, and the defense had to run back and forth with Li You, and the Iron Man couldn't stand it.
Positional offense, Li You frequently gave the ball to Ewing in the low post, the gorilla has good physical fitness and low efficiency, and can also keep up with the response ball at this time.
The Heat took two timeouts, but neither could change the situation of the two sides
With 1 minute and 56 seconds left in the game, Tim Hardaway was substituted, and the Heat still didn't give up, but they just couldn't score points.
Jeff Van Gundy on the sidelines shouted excitedly, reminding the players to resist.
After Li You consumed the last offensive time, the Heat stopped attacking and let the time run out.
The final hum rang out, and at 76:82, Madison Square Garden erupted in huge cheers as the New York fans celebrated the G2 victory.
The last quarter was 18:15, but as long as the game was won, no one cared about the offense of the pull!
"The series is 2-0, we protect the home court, as long as we get a win on the road, a win, we have a chance to advance to the Eastern Conference finals at home!"
"It's the perfect season for New York fans!"
Commentator John Andalis is starting to go crazy with poisoned milk, and whatever the outcome, as long as he can make it to the division finals, such a result is already very successful.
"At 19 years and 128 days, Lee continued to set his own record, 24 points, 4 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 steals, 1 block and 3 turnovers, he is the MVP of this game!"
On the commentary bench, Mav Albert also followed the poisoned milk, and the two blew wildly, almost helping the Knicks to borrow a championship.
Tim Hardaway walked off the pitch quickly after the game and had to take the blame for losing.
If it hadn't been for the sudden collapse in the third quarter, the Heat would have had a chance to get an away win.
8-of-23, 2-of-8 from beyond the three-point line, 6-of-7 from the free-throw line, 24 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 2 turnovers, Tim Hardaway was very unhappy with his performance.
Mourning and Ewing said hello and left the court quickly, 8-of-14, 8-of-13 free throws, 24 points and 13 rebounds, and got a double-double, but he was very sorry in his heart.
The free throws were more accurate, and the Heat were the ones who led at halftime.
The fans at the scene did not leave the stadium immediately after the game, and everyone was still celebrating the second consecutive home win.
Li You walked to the players' tunnel, and the fans on both sides shouted, stretched out their arms, and high-fived in celebration.
Back in the locker room, the atmosphere team shouted that all it took was an away win to get the match point in the series!
The Eastern Conference Finals are already beckoning!
Ewing returned to his seat and pounded his knee, grinning too.
6 of 19, 5 of 6 free throws, 17 points, 11 rebounds, 1 block and 2 turnovers, the gorilla data is stretched, but the process is not important, just win!
Jeff Van Gundy was already smiling when he returned to the locker room, and the thought of Pat Riley's serious expression made his heart happy.
"We did it, we just need one win on the road, and then we qualify at home!"
"Go home and rest like this, we'll make it to the Eastern Conference Finals again!"
The bald young marshal said a lot, more to vent the excitement in his heart.
Li Youxin sat in his seat with a smile and fist bump with Starks, who was in a bad mood next to him.
The veteran was 1-of-7 tonight, and in his limited playing time, Bang Bang hit the iron and scored just five points.
9-of-17, 2-of-6 from beyond the three-point line, 4-of-5 from the free throw line, and played 42 minutes.
"You can't stop resistance training, sooner or later you will run to death these old guys!"
“.”
In the post-game press conference, Pat Riley still behaved lightly in the face of the difficulties of the New York media:
"It's a shame we didn't get an away win, but we've found the key to winning, it's a long series, and the Heat will be the winner!"
"Where do you lose? Mourning had nine turnovers tonight and there were some minor problems with our tactical execution! ”
"Jeff coached the Knicks well, but back in Miami, the Heat will win the game."
Looking at Pat Riley, who was talking eloquently on stage, the New York media in the audience were unhappy:
"What's the traitor!?"
On the morning of May 8, Li You looked at the New York media in the newspaper and shook his head helplessly.
Win and grin!
Except for the sarcastic Pat Riley who was knocked over by his assistant, most of the rest were blowing his data.
In the playoffs, two consecutive games of 20+10, Li You set a new record.
The record is a hot spot, and it's over, anyway, fans love to watch it!
In last night's simultaneous game, the SuperSonics pulled one back on the road.
At 106:101, the Rockets' senior Big Three played well, but the role players were inaccurate.
Gary Payton played almost the whole game, playing 47 minutes, 6-of-20, 1-of-7 from beyond the three-point line, 4-of-4 from the free throw line, and had 17 points, 2 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 steals, 1 block and 4 turnovers.
Coach George Karl rotates 7 players, and although the main point guard is not efficient, winning is the most important thing!
The New York media also used Lee's data to compare Gary Payton's and finally concluded:
"Win!"
The outrageous titles of "No. 1 point guard" and "contemporary magician" began to increase.
After breakfast, Starks greeted Li You, and the two had to prepare their luggage, and they were going to fly to Miami in the afternoon.
"Congratulations in advance, Rookie of the Year for a while, Lee, you got all the accolades of a rookie player, stay healthy, and when your rookie contract ends, you will definitely sign a big contract!"
Starks showed a hint of envy, as an undrafted pick, his career was not so smooth.
The second contract of his career is very important, and many players even rely on this contract to support their retirement, but Li You doesn't care about this:
"It's better to win the championship, and then you can raise the price!"
“.”
On the night of the 8th, everyone from the Knicks, who had flown to Miami, watched the night's game in the hotel again.
At 103:95, the Bulls, who were playing at home, lost unexpectedly and were suppressed by the Hawks almost all of the game.
Michael Jordan was also a man, playing 44 minutes, 12-of-29, 0-of-6 from beyond the three-point line, 3-of-3 from the free-throw line, and chipped in 27 points, 16 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 block and 1 turnover.
Pippen was outstanding, making 9-of-18 shooting, 4-of-4 from beyond the three-point line, and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line, contributing 24 points, 4 rebounds, 9 assists, 1 steal and 1 turnover.
The Bulls played a fast-paced game, and in the face of the bag, Mai dunk accelerated the speed of handling the ball, but the shooting percentage of the early 40 percent could not lead the team to victory.
The Hawks exploded with Steve Smith being 8-of-19, Muzzie Blayrock 9-of-13, 8-of-9 from beyond the three-point line and Mutombo 8-of-11.
The collective burst won the game, and the atmosphere group shouted:
"It's incredible, Blaylock barely lost it!"
Li You was also happy when he saw Maikou's performance, and he would definitely have to stage a criticism meeting the next day.
"The Hawks can't keep going, the Bulls will win back, and no one has ever disappointed in key games."
Oakley was happy when the Bulls lost, but the old guy still believed the Bulls would win the series
The inflated atmosphere group began to imagine that the Hawks would eliminate the Bulls, and then the Knicks would easily defeat the Hawks and reach the Finals!
The more the crowd talked, the more crooked they became, and finally took out the championship.
Ewing paid more attention to the game between the Jazz and the Lakers, and at 84:104, the Jazz lost.
Seeing Malone 2-of-20, 11-of-12 free throws, and 15 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists, he laughed out loud for a while:
"Parallel MVP!! A soft egg that will make free throws! ”
On the morning of May 9, the NBA announced the rookie rookie rookie team of the season:
The five members of the first squad are:
Lee Yo, Aaron Iverson, Antoine Walker, Marcus Camby, Sharif Raheem;
The second team of 5 people are:
Stephen Marbury, Curry Kidders, Ray Allen, Kobe Bryant, Travis Knight.
The best rookie second team, with a bunch of guards, is really big and nobody.
The whole team congratulated Lee Woo on entering the rookie best team, and then that night, the Knicks simply lost:
At 84:89, after returning to their home court, the Heat successfully moved back to one city.
The process of the game was no different from that of G2, except that Mourning made fewer mistakes and made more accurate free throws
At Miami Arena, the Heat fans in the stadium were cheering loudly, Pat Riley made good on his promise tonight, and they won!
Li You and his teammates quickly returned to the players' tunnel, and they were prepared for tonight's defeat.
When Jeff Van Gundy returned to the locker room, he also encouraged:
"We know exactly how the opponent is playing and now we are still the leader!"
"Go back to the hotel, have a good rest, I'll watch the game video again with the coaching staff, G4, we're going to go back to New York with the win!"
