I really don't want to win the MVP

Chapter 199 The final stage of the regular season
Jiang Mu wanted to try an S-level three-pointer, but he didn't have a good chance to make a shot in the first quarter, because the Warriors had already regarded Jiang Mu as a three-pointer at the same level as Curry after the last game against the Knicks. players.

Therefore, the whole team played a tough defense with a tacit understanding, so that Jiang Mu missed 2 three-pointers in the first quarter.

Looking at the Warriors, Curry and Thompson didn't seem to feel good, but Green rarely hit a wide-open three-pointer.

Green shook his head and sprayed trash talk:
"See? I've made more three-pointers than you now!"

Jiang Mu spent all his thoughts on feeling the game, and Ben didn't have time to talk to Green.

But the Knicks felt pretty good today, at least Jiang Mu contained a lot of defensive pressure, and Jiang Mu, who had reached the S level in passing, found himself passing the ball more easily.

Through the chat after the last game with Kobe, Jiang Mu has a more thorough understanding of the game.

So Jiang Mu basically gave up the three-pointer, but used the three-pointer as a threat to find a good opportunity for his teammates.

But once Jiang Mu takes the ball to face Curry, as long as others don't help defend, Jiang Mu will definitely squeeze his back into the three-point line and end the offense with a Kobe-style mid-range.

The three-point shootout that many people hoped to see did not appear, but the two sides came and went, but it was exciting.

The Warriors rely on outside shooting to always stay ahead.

But the Knicks seemed more reasonable. Under Jiang Mu's threat and assists, as well as Jiang Mu's own breakthrough and mid-range shot, the Knicks still did not fall behind too much until the end of the fourth quarter.

However, at the last moment, under the double blessing of the "Huge Heart Badge" and "Undisturbed Badge", plus an S-level three-pointer, Jiang Mu failed to make a three-pointer against Thompson's strong shot. Let the Knicks lose hope of finally tying the score.

Although the Knicks used foul tactics, it has not prevented the Warriors from defending their home victory.

This game made Jiang Mu understand one thing.

The paranoid system of the ball god has indeed brought me a great improvement, and it has also allowed me to clearly recognize my own strengths and weaknesses, but even with the blessings of various badges and attributes, before the hit rate reaches [-]%, I will never be able to Might assure you that yours will hit.

Although the key ball ability is stronger than others, there will still be times when he will not score.

Can the hit rate really be [-]%?

impossible!
Never!

If so, basketball has lost its charm!
Jiang Mu knew that the improvement of his ability was the essential thing.

The Knicks stopped at 15 consecutive victories, but it is already very good. At least people have seen the strength of the Knicks not to lose when facing the Warriors.

The advantage of the Knicks is that the competition in the East is not as fierce as in the West.

In the middle of March, there are still 3 games left in March. Except for the away game against the Cavaliers on the 3th, the rest of the opponents are not strong.

After entering April, the regular stage games of all NBA teams will come to an end.

The Knicks will have 4 games in April, and the strongest opponent is the Raptors.

So the Knicks organized a team meeting after the loss to the Warriors, and the topic was to study the next 13 games to close.

With the current strength and state of the Knicks, winning 9 of them does not seem to be a problem.

But the plan is just a plan after all. No one thought that the Knicks would lose to the Wizards who were struggling for a playoff spot after three days of rest.

In the last game against the Warriors, who were number one in the league, they lost to the Wizards, who were obviously not strong enough. This made Jiang Mu realize more clearly that the NBA is really a league without absolutes.

Jiang Mu felt very bad in this match, so he could only reduce the number of shots.

John Wall, who happened to be not good at shooting, suddenly possessed Curry. Under the ebb and flow, it is normal for the Knicks to lose.

However, there have been more or less discussions in the outside world about the Knicks pulling their hips as soon as they reach the closing stage.

The Knicks beat the not-so-powerful Kings 21:90 at home on the 88st of the second day.

On the 24th and 25th, they defeated the Bulls, who have had a poor record recently, twice.

A wave of three consecutive victories put the Knicks on track for the time being.

Against the Cavaliers on the 27th, the recent ups and downs of the Knicks were not favored by the outside world, but Kyrie Irving appeared on the non-activated list due to injury.

The Knicks were lucky, James didn't feel good, and the team also deliberately arranged for James to rest more tactically in the last few games.

Instead, the Knicks won the game.

At first, Fisher had a good idea. If the Knicks enter the playoffs this year as the second place in the Eastern Conference, then the meeting with the Cavaliers will not be until the Eastern Conference Finals at the earliest. Therefore, the Knicks are determined to play well with the Cavaliers. one game.

But the Cavaliers did not give the Knicks this chance.

Because the strength of the Cavaliers in recent years is obvious to all.

The Knicks have only gotten stronger this year.

At such a stage that the regular season is about to end, how does the Knicks want the Cavaliers to train?That is absolutely impossible!
The brains of the Cavaliers would rather lose a game than let the Knicks get the slightest benefit.

Then the Knicks defeated the Pelicans and the Mavericks again, and the entire March game ended.

At this time, the Knicks had a record of 55 wins and 20 losses, still ranking second in the Eastern Conference.

The No. 57 Cleveland Cavaliers are 18 wins and [-] losses at this time.

The Toronto Raptors, ranked third in the East, are 53 wins and 23 losses.

If there are no major surprises, the top three in the East will basically not change.

At this time, some people have already begun to study the playoffs.

The teams on the edge of the Eastern Conference playoffs are the Pacers, Pistons, Bulls and Wizards.

In addition to the teams that are determined to enter the playoffs and have a high probability of not losing streak, these 4 teams need to compete for the remaining two places.

The April game is coming up soon.

The Knicks did not start to study matchups like many teams at this time of year, because from everyone's point of view, even under the consensus of everyone on the Knicks team, the Knicks have no problems in the first round at all.

Whether facing the Indiana Pacers, Detroit Pistons, or the Chicago Bulls and Washington Wizards, the Knicks seem to have no chance of losing the series.

Although the Knicks just lost to the Wizards not long ago.

But John Wall can't hit 4 three-pointers every game!

The remaining 4 games in April ended quickly. The Knicks defeated the Nets on the 6nd, the Hornets on the 2th, and the Raptors on the 7th.

On April 4, the Knicks used many lineups and styles of play against the Pacers, and beat the Pacers 4:140.

This result is what the Knicks want to see, because the situation is becoming clearer, and the Knicks are likely to face the Pacers in the first round of the playoffs.
