The older superstars of the NBA

After the first game, the situation for the New York Knicks did not take a turn for the worse. On the contrary, although the Big Three of the Brook Nets look very strong, there seems to always be a gap with the Knicks in terms of team chemistry.

The Knicks won the next two games.

A big score of 3-0 was something that many people did not expect. Even the Knicks themselves were somewhat surprised by this result.

In the fourth game, the Nets finally got back a win.

This time at the Barkley Center at home, Kevin Durant, one of the core players of the Nets, performed a performance that shocked countless fans.

He scored 40 points and 7 rebounds in the game, becoming the top scorer among the Big Three of the Nets and the entire arena.

Although the Knicks have ways to restrict James Harden and Kyrie Irving, they have always been unable to restrict Durant enough.

It was after the game that the Knicks quickly thought of a new strategy.

In the fifth game, the Knicks let Adrian Ennis and Wiggins take turns to guard Durant.

They didn't give Durant any chance to rest at all. As long as he was on the court, Adrian and Wiggins would remain focused enough to consume him. They even gave up many opportunities to take action and only focused all their attention on Durant. All focused on defense.

This method really works.

For most of Game 5, Durant didn't get many shots. Especially in the second half, he was completely out of shape due to the interference of the two. Even if he could hit one or two three-pointers at the critical moment, he could not guarantee the team's victory.

As for Irving and Harden, this time they tried their best to score 49 points together. This performance is already considered good.

However, Zhao Feiyang was better than them. He scored 44 points alone, directly helping the Knicks secure the victory early.

Because of this, when the score gap between the two sides widened to 9 points and the game was about to end, the fans in the entire arena couldn't help but stand up and applaud.

This applause is not given to any player, but to both teams.

The fans are grateful for the wonderful performance they brought to the people of New York.

beep.

The moment the timer sounded, the entire series ended successfully. Everyone originally thought that the Eastern Conference finals would be extremely difficult, but after the game actually started, everyone realized that they had underestimated the strength of the Knicks.

Even the Big Three of the Nets are still unable to threaten the Knicks before they successfully get along.

4:1.

The Knicks made the cut.

This is a night of victory for them and a night of victory for New York fans. After the game, New York fans cheered because they once again rushed into the finals.

Entering the finals three times in three years is extremely remarkable for any team.

At the same time, the game between the Phoenix Suns and the Golden State Warriors also ended.

The Suns indeed exceeded everyone's expectations. They were able to defeat the Warriors in the first two games and win.

At this time, many fans thought that the Suns would defeat the Warriors and advance to the finals.

Unfortunately, this is just an illusion!

The Warriors broke out immediately in the following games. They won four consecutive games and easily defeated the Suns, completely shattering the fantasies of Phoenix fans and defeating Chris Paul's last desire for a championship.

When the final game of the series ended, Paul stood on the court and hugged every player. Countless fans gave him applause and blessings.

Everyone knows that at his current age, it may be difficult for him to have another chance to win the championship again!

As the league's top defender, Paul has won some honors and received praise from many people, but he has always lacked a championship.

Even for a superstar like Allen Iverson, no matter how many people once liked him, it is always a pity that as a player he failed to win such a hard honor as a championship.

So is Paul.

After the Eastern and Western Conference finals, the finals are coming.

The feud between the Knicks and Warriors is happening again. The last time the Warriors failed to become an opponent of the Knicks because of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and others, this time is different!

Both sides have strong enough lineups. Both the Knicks and the Warriors can field an All-Star starting lineup. Although the All-Star status of some players is not so stable, their starting lineup is indeed the best in the entire league. of.

When the finals came again, players from both sides also took the time to rest. Both the Warriors and the Knicks are looking forward to the upcoming battle.

A few days later, G1 of the finals arrived smoothly.

The game started first at Madison Square Garden, home of the New York Knicks. On the day of the match, the atmosphere was extremely lively. Countless fans came to cheer and watch the match. Even many celebrities came to the venue to support the match.

Before the game officially started, LeBron James also came up and said hello to Zhao Feiyang.

When the two former teammates met, they felt a little emotional for each other.

"LeBron, I never thought you would join the Warriors!"

Zhao Feiyang said.

LeBron sighed, "I don't want to either...but I don't have much time. I have to make a little sacrifice for the sake of the championship!"

"Even the reputation you've built up over the years?"

"of course."

"What a pity! If that's the case, you shouldn't join the Warriors, you should join us... In this case, maybe we can win three or four more championships together..."

As soon as Zhao Feiyang said this, LeBron almost slapped his forehead.

"Damn it!"

"Why don't the Knicks come to me? If you invite me, then it's not impossible for me to join you..."

Both of them couldn't help but sigh at each other.

call out.

The referee's whistle sounded and both sides walked onto the court.

The war officially started.

Snapped.

As soon as the referee threw the basketball, Serge Ibaka jumped up and slapped the basketball away. The ball fell to the Knicks, and Adrian got the ball and threw it to Zach LaVine.

LaVine advanced with the ball, and as soon as half-court was passed, Zhao Feiyang rushed up to catch the ball.

After getting the ball, he pretended to take a shot, but in fact he feinted with a "Bow the Buddha" to Klay Thompson who was rushing towards him. Thompson subconsciously jumped up and was directly thrown away by Zhao Feiyang.

After passing Thompson, Zhao Feiyang dribbled the ball towards the basket. At this time, Draymond Green rushed up from the basket to cover the position. Upon seeing this, Zhao Feiyang deliberately threw the ball inside.

The two of them met face to face.

Green subconsciously defended behind him, and Zhao Feiyang also took this opportunity to throw the ball out.

Swish.

A two-point ball hit the basket steadily.

Soon it was the Warriors' turn to fight back.

Stephen Curry, who holds the ball, organizes the offense in the half court. LeBron came up from the wing to take over.

The Knicks continued to adopt the method of marking Durant, but this time it was Andrew Wiggins who came to mark LeBron.

The entire league knows that Wiggins plays "healthy basketball" on weekdays, but once he meets LeBron, he becomes possessed by Michael Jordan.

This time is no exception.

Wiggins stuck to LeBron to prevent him from catching the ball. Although LeBron quickly pushed Wiggins away to get the ball, Wiggins still blocked LeBron and put on an extremely focused defensive posture.

LeBron one on one.

It looked like a single, but it actually attracted other people's defensive attention. After LeBron shook twice, he suddenly gave the ball directly to JaVale McGee under the basket.

McGee got the ball and made a sneak attack.

Snapped.

Andre Drummond on the inside slapped the basketball out of McGee's hand.

The whole place was in an uproar.

The basketball rolled down to the free throw line, and this time it was LeBron who picked it up. I saw him leaping high with all the fans watching. Without even waiting for the Knicks players under the basket to react, he jumped and smashed the ball in with a two-handed dunk.

boom.

The ball went in.

The whole audience exclaimed.

The fans are still surprised, but the Knicks are already prepared. Ibaka quickly served the ball under the basket and threw the ball to the half court with a long pass. Zhao Feiyang had already rushed to the Warriors' three-point line.

Snapped.

After receiving the basketball, he directly lifted the basketball and shot a three-pointer.

It's not that he refused to rush to the basket and take shots, but that Thompson and Curry rushed over early to interfere. Considering that the hand feels pretty good now, Zhao Feiyang chose to take a three-point shot.

Swish.

A three-pointer hit the basket accurately.

The whole audience exclaimed.

The battle between the two sides has been very fierce since the beginning. No matter which side it is, there has never been a moment of relaxation.

For the rest of the first quarter, the score difference between the two sides remained tight. The Knicks tried to pull away several times, but were quickly recovered by Curry's long shot.

call out.

After the referee's whistle sounded in the first quarter, the score between the two sides was 33-34, with the Knicks temporarily leading by 1 point.

Soon came the second quarter.

Both sides chose to fight hard and continue to let the main players stay on the court. The Knicks are dominated by Zhao Feiyang, and the Warriors are dominated by LeBron.

The two sides fought again.

LeBron began to choose to play in singles. Although Adrian and Wiggins did not relax their restrictions on him at all, he was completely invincible when facing either of them alone.

Therefore, LeBron chose to break through the opponent and attack directly towards the Knicks' basket.

His singles really helped the Warriors keep scoring.

But the Knicks did not give in. Zhao Feiyang, as the core, began to dominate the offense on the court. When he gets the ball, he constantly chooses three-pointers or mid-range shots. Considering that there is Draymond, a guy with dirty hands and feet under the basket, Zhao Feiyang rarely chooses to break into the basket.

This style of play also saved his physical energy, and at the same time, the score between the two sides was never widened.

It wasn't until the third quarter came, when Zhao Feiyang and LeBron were both replaced, that the situation on the court finally changed a little.
