Chapter 403 The responsibility of the team boss!
Chapter 403 The responsibility of the team boss!
Game 43 returned to Madison Square Garden in New York. About % of the famous commentators believed that the Knicks would reach the championship in this game and reach the peak after years.
It's definitely an exciting time, especially for New York fans.
Dolan even directly stated on social media that as long as the team wins the championship, he will spend 500 million U.S. dollars as the cost of the championship celebration.
It was simply so arrogant.
It’s really time to be proud.
It’s been 43 years!
When was the last time the Knicks made it to the Finals?
In the shortened season of 98-99, they only achieved a record of 27 wins and 23 losses. As the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference, they counterattacked all the way and ran away as a dark horse. In the end, they lost to the Spurs' twin tower combination in the finals and missed the opportunity. champion.
And their last championship history?
It has to be traced back to the 72-73 season in ancient times, 43 years have passed.
A full 43 years!
In this time span, more than half of life has passed, and the Knicks are once again trying to win the championship. Once they succeed, you can imagine how excited the New York fans will be.
The Knicks have already won Tianwang Mountain. As long as they win one game, they can reach the top. They have a huge psychological advantage.
This is why the public is unanimously optimistic that the Knicks will reach the top in Game 6.
You just throw in a three-pointer, and he can immediately follow up and return you a three-pointer.
The Warriors and the Knicks reached 3:3, which means they have officially entered the tiebreaker sequence.
Xue Liancheng's three 100% hitting skills were all exhausted, and he could not help the team save the situation, or even reduce the score.
The two games the Golden State Warriors defeated the Knicks at Oracle Arena were huge wins.
The most important thing is that Thompson is really accurate.
How could it be possible to let go?
It can be seen that in the offensive firepower game between the two sides, the Knicks were severely suppressed.
Then there is the psychological aspect.
As for the tactical level, in the first two games, the Warriors clearly suppressed the Knicks on both offense and defense.
After winning the first two games, they suffered a setback and lost three games in a row. No matter how hard they tried, they just couldn't win, such as being defeated in the fourth game.
Spending $500 million to celebrate is not worth the fuss at all.
But the other Splash Brother, Klay Thompson, broke out. He made 25 of 14 and 15 of 8 three-pointers. He played an extremely crazy performance and scored 40 in total, helping the team win this crucial game. .
It's not surprising because before the finals started, some people still believed that the two teams were equally matched in strength. Their offense was top-notch, they were both models of fast break, and their defense was relatively average.
This result is not surprising, but it is a bit unexpected.
How do you have a chance of winning?
and so.
Therefore, in the tactical game, the Warriors are also losers.
The Splash Brothers hit a three-pointer very hard.
But in the third game, the Knicks seemed to have found the Warriors' flaw and began to attack Curry frantically. They also made some adjustments to the lineup, and the effect was immediate.
This brought a psychological pressure, making all of them feel as if they were carrying a heavy burden to compete.
The Knicks were defeated by the Warriors 115:108 at Madison Square Garden.
Curry's performance in this game was still sluggish, with an overall shooting rate of only 26 of 10, a 38.4% shooting rate, which was a mess.
The entire sports section was in an uproar.
How can you maintain a good feel?
The Warriors are just the opposite.
This is just a morale level.
They have so much in common.
The so-called comeback against the wind is actually a psychological comeback.
three days later.
But after losing two consecutive games on the road, especially in Game 4, where they suffered a devastating blow, the blow to morale was too great, and the Warriors seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
in this way.
This resulted in the fifth battle being unable to fight back, so the sixth battle would only be more suspenseful.
There is a reason why celebrities and commentators are so unified.
There are also considerations such as home court factors, star performance, overall lineup depth and other dimensions, all of which are the Knicks' advantage.
He made 13 of 2 three-pointers and his 15.3% shooting rate was extremely outrageous.
In the end, even Xue Liancheng couldn't keep up with Thompson's two consecutive hits and could only retire in disgrace.
As soon as the game is over.
In the fourth and fifth games, Cole failed to find a way to restrain the Knicks.
But sometimes, the results are often unexpected.
The overall three-point ability of Xue Liancheng + Oladipo is not bad either.
The Warriors' favorite lineup is the five-small lineup.
The Knicks' five small lineups are used frequently in the decisive moment.
Both teams have a top star who is a historical three-point shooter.
Their lineup depth and combat systems are all similar to a certain extent.
Their offensive efficiency, scoring data, points lost data, efficiency value, etc. are actually almost the same.
Various signs indicate that the overall strength of the two teams is actually not very different, and there is a high probability that they will reach a tiebreaker.
This is what is not surprising.
Surprisingly, before Game 6, more than 80% of people believed that the Knicks would end the series at home and reach the championship.
But the result was that he lost, and he lost without any temper at all.
Throughout the entire game, the closest the Knicks narrowed the point difference was only by 3 points.
But he was quickly bombarded by Thompson, Barnes, Iguodala and others, and could no longer stand up.
The most points difference they have behind the Warriors is 17 points.
Xue Liancheng forced to activate the 100% hit skill and barely managed to hold on.
Otherwise, it is very likely that you will rush to 20+ in an instant.
It can be said that they were at a disadvantage from beginning to end in this game and failed to make any waves at all.
This is just a galaxy away from what the public expected.
This is where the unexpected comes from.
Everyone thought the Knicks were going to make a big comeback, but they didn't expect to be hit in the head by the Warriors.
After the game.
The reporter interviewed Klay Thompson, the best player in the game.
Reporter: "If you win the game, you will return to the home court for the tiebreaker. Do you have anything to say about this?"
Thompson: "Anyone who looks down on us, I'm going to make them pay, and that's me."
When he said this, Thompson looked high-spirited, as if he was telling the world: I am the best.
It is true that Thompson has the capital to be arrogant.
In the last series, the Warriors trailed the Thunder 1:3. When the game reached the sixth game, everyone thought the Thunder would end the series at home.
But Thompson stepped up.
In the last few minutes of the fourth quarter, he took a shot and finally scored 40+ points, directly killing the Thunder and helping the team qualify for the tiebreaker.
So there is a rumor in the market: Look at Curry in good times, and look at Buddha in desperate times.
The Warriors boss knelt down to Thompson, which is enough to show how magical Thompson is and how incredible some games are.
Desperate Soup is by no means a deserved name.
<divclass="contentadv">And this game also verified this.
The Knicks chased the last 3 points and were about to catch up. Thompson directly hit a three-pointer.
Xue Liancheng activated the 100% hit skill and came back, and Thompson was able to stabilize the mid-range shot immediately.
Then came the performances of Barnes and Iguodala.
In this game, Thompson was really tough.
Being able to compete with a god who has three 100% hit skills, you can imagine how terrifying Thompson will be when he becomes a god.
no doubt.
Thompson is the biggest contributor to this game.
He is bragging now and no one dares to interrupt him.
Reporter: "What are your expectations for the tiebreaker?"
Thompson: "My only expectation is when I lift the championship trophy, all the cheering moments, I enjoy those times."
Reporter: "This is your best game in the finals. Can you maintain it in the next game?"
Thompson: "There's no doubt about it, because I want a championship."
Done.
Thompson grinned.
It was obvious that there was something in this statement, and it was meant to ridicule Xue Liancheng.
After all, Xue Liancheng said something in an interview two days ago, including the sentence "desire for a championship", which was quoted by many media and caused a big trend.
Now Thompson speaks out. Isn't it just mocking Xue Liancheng?
Don’t you long for a championship?
Why couldn't we lift the championship trophy at home?
This illustrates a problem: You are not eager enough for the championship.
This is equivalent to Chi Guoguo's ridicule.
The media's ability to adapt to the situation is truly superb.
"Xue Liancheng's desire for a championship turned into a laughing stock"
"The Warriors competed in Game 6, and the trend of winning the championship began to change"
"Tie-break, Golden State Warriors rekindle championship hopes"
"Thompson: Who dares to underestimate me?" 》
"This was the Knicks' last chance, but they failed to seize it"
A large number of mainstream reports have begun to pessimize the Knicks.
According to media analysis, the Warriors have obviously calmed down and their morale has been restored.
At this time, they will have home field advantage.
At the same time, the level shown by the Splash Brothers is not comparable to that of Xue Liancheng + Oladipo.
There are many, many other factors.
But it's all innocuous stuff.
Mainly because the Warriors fought hard to win Game 6, which caused the wind direction to change again.
As the saying goes, wherever the wind blows, they will fall, and the nature of being a grassroots person is clearly revealed.
This is the nature of media people.
And at the post-match press conference.
Oladipo suffered the biggest embarrassment of his Knicks career.
Reporter: "Viddock, after this series, you have only averaged 16.2 points, 3.5 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game, and your shooting percentage is only 38.4%. There is not much change from the Magic period, and it is even better than the Magic period. Your performance is even worse, I want to ask, why is this? What happened to make your performance so bad?"
This question is very sharp, it can be said that it is like stabbing a knife directly into the heart.
As soon as he asked the question, Oladipo's entire face turned dark instantly.
Xue Liancheng quickly took over the conversation and answered first: "Everyone has their downturns. We are athletes, not gods. We cannot always remain stable and operate like robots."
At this time, he must protect Oladipo.
Maintenance without reason.
Although Oladipo's personal performance was really poor in the finals, it is impossible for him to damage the self-esteem and self-confidence of his teammates at this time.
Furthermore, although Oladipo missed the target on offense, he really worked hard on the defensive end.
In the third, fourth, and even fifth games that the Knicks won, Oladipo made great contributions when defending Thompson.
Now that he has lost a game, it is obviously unfair to Oladipo to step on the ground.
Also, blaming each other will not solve the problem.
The only way to solve the problem is to help Oladipo come out.
The prerequisite for coming out is to keep Oladipo confident, dare to take action, be fearless and full of passion.
Instead of pouring cold water on, blaming, or being weird.
of course.
The most important thing is that the team cannot live without Oladipo.
As the team's No. 2 offensive figure, Oladipo is not only the end point of the offense, but also the second starting point of the offense.
When he was double-teamed, Oladipo took over the banner of attacking with the ball, receiving, organizing, and scoring. There is no doubt that Oladipo is extremely important to the operation of the team's offense.
In this case, only if Oladipo performs at a normal level can they compete with the Warriors in the tiebreaker.
otherwise……
It is difficult for him alone to turn the tide.
After hearing Xue Liancheng's defense, Oladipo looked a little better. He turned his head and glanced at Xue Liancheng, his eyes full of gratitude and a little guilty.
As for why you feel guilty?
He averaged 16.2 points, 3.5 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game, with an overall shooting percentage of only 38.4%. How could he not feel guilty for such a performance?
This is the finals!
In the few games the Knicks won, Oladipo's performance was mediocre, not bad, but not good either.
And the few games we lost, it was like a piece of shit.
If the championship is lost because of this, then every player should feel guilty.
What's more, Oladipo is still the team's second-in-command, the second-most offensive figure, and has much greater responsibilities than ordinary players.
Obviously.
Oladipo actually blamed himself secretly deep down in his heart.
But the reporter didn't give up: "Xue, aren't you disappointed with Oladipo's performance?"
Xue Liancheng: "He is one of the best players I have ever played with. He is very good. He is just encountering a little difficulty at the moment. What I need to do is to accompany him to come out. And I firmly believe that he I will definitely be able to come out, maybe in three days."
He continues to serve as a role model for the team boss.
The reporter got to the bottom of it: "Are you disappointed with Oladipo's performance?"
Xue Liancheng: "No, if there must be, it would be that I felt disappointed because I didn't let him come out."
Oladipo on the side was already livid.
no doubt.
These are the most hurtful words.
But thankfully, Xue Liancheng carried them all by himself without letting him suffer any harm.
At this moment.
Oladipo felt warm in his heart and exhaled heavily. He finally spoke, "My problem is real, but I will watch the video a few more times and correct it in the tiebreaker. I believe it." , we will definitely win.”
