Nba: This Superstar Is Too Stable

Yes, because of Bai Feng, D'Antoni's mentality that he originally planned to "lie down" has now rekindled hope!

Bai Feng's performance in G1 and G3 can only be said to be qualified. G2 had a strong performance of 47 points, but the Knicks still lost.

It seems that Bai Feng, who is only 20 years old, does not have the ability to break the game in the Eastern Finals.

It is more reasonable that his "reasonable" style of play is not suitable for breaking the game.

But what D'Antoni never expected was that Bai Feng's style had completely changed in this game.

At the beginning of the game, use various options that do not seem "stable" to assist teammates to score.

Even JR Smith and Ronny Turiaf, who he hardly used at ordinary times, were driven by him.

After that, he even took the Stoudemire and Anthony who were locked by the opponent by attacking on his own!

This kind of scene, he is familiar with it, when he was in the Suns, Steve Nash did the same - he drove his teammates.

Therefore, with more than 7 minutes left in the second quarter, D'Antoni still changed the main lineup in advance, and was full of expectations!

As soon as he played, Bai Feng made another good pass, but unfortunately Turiaf failed to score.

And JR Smith's hot touch is no longer there, and the open three-pointer has not been able to make a shot.

Since your teammates can't make the shot, then come by yourself!

Next, Bai Feng started his own performance!

First, he swayed at the top of the arc and scared Chalmers back far away, and he was suddenly scared by Bai Feng in the first quarter.

But making room for Bai Feng is dangerous.

Without any hesitation, Bai Feng made a three-point shot.

Swish!

Enter!

In the Knicks' next offensive round, Bai Feng smashed the basket through the pick-and-roll, and Bosh played the ball with a fake pass and a layup, and won the applause.

In the next round, it was Bai Feng again. After breaking through, he made a sudden stop jumper, causing Chalmers, who was actively blocking, to foul, but he still made the shot.

After a penalty hit, it becomes 2+1.

With 8 points in an instant, Bai Feng completely blew Chalmers!

Such a performance made the cheers of Madison Square Garden one wave after another.

"Bai Feng is amazing tonight. His feel and state are comparable to the 57 points he scored against the Bulls in the first round!"

"I thought it was a flash in the pan. The Bulls let him go on purpose. Now it seems that Bai Feng really has this offensive ability."

"Then why doesn't he play like this every game?"

"It's not clear, it probably also needs a sense of child and status.

Indeed, it is not easy to have such a performance on the field.

Especially in the playoffs.

In addition to having a good feel and state, the opponent also has to give him a chance.

Even sometimes, it depends on the performance of teammates.

For example, when the Knicks have super scorers like Stoudemire and Anthony, if the two of them are in good condition, then as a point guard, they must give priority to driving the scorer to attack.

The previous G3 was like this.

Therefore, if the point guard wants to make an explosive scoring show, he needs the right time and place.

Tonight, seems to have just had.

The reason why the Heat dared to continue to use Chalmers to defend Bai Feng alone, even if he scored consecutively, did not change much, mainly because G2 Bai Feng scored 47 points.

The Heat ended up winning the game easily.

In their opinion, as long as Stoudemire and Anthony don't play explosively, then they will definitely win the game.

What's more, coach Spoelstra has plenty of preparations for this game.

Therefore, they were not in a hurry after being a little behind in the second quarter.

LeBron James only rested for three minutes off the court before being replaced again. In the last four minutes, the Heat's starting lineup was reunited.

After Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, known as the "second man in the league", decisively gave full play to his dominance during this period.

All kinds of pick-and-roll dunks!

Various tank-style unstoppable layups, and even precise mid-to-long-range shots developed in recent years.

His identity in this game has changed. He no longer acts as the Heat's perimeter organizer as he used to, but starts to rush and score!

Perhaps, James's performance is related to the article of the local basketball media in Miami a few days ago.

In G3, Wade went down to earth and led the team to complete the big reversal.

Overnight, Wade was on fire in Miami, he became a city hero again, and was compared by fans to Wade in 2006.

For a time, all kinds of titles about Wade were mentioned again.

"Miami's only true God", "Miami's cornerstone", "Only Wade can lead the Heat to the championship"!

There is no problem with the praise of Miami players, and Wade's performance deserves these titles.

However, behind the blowout of Wade is LeBron James, who has been left out in the cold.

And some malicious black fans are making a big fuss about it.

"James really came to the south coast to hug his thighs. Look, how thick and fragrant Wade is with his thighs, and Zhan Runpao can finally realize his dream of a championship.

"Although James' stats are okay, we have to look at Wade at the critical moment. Only Wade has a big heart. James likes to throw the blame on his teammates at the critical moment."

"Indeed, the tailwind James is very strong, and the headwind depends on Bosh. In a desperate situation, we can only wait for Wade to stand up."

"After all, the Heat always belongs to Wade. Only Wade can be called the soul of the team. It should be James who assists Wade."

For these claims, to say James doesn't care? That's impossible.

In the offseason last year, he "risked the world" and ran to Miami against the boos of fans all over the world, which put him under enormous pressure.

Of course, James also understands that, as the top star in the league, to team up with players like Wade Bosh will indeed be seen as "taking shortcuts" and will be misunderstood by people.

But as long as the championship can be won, all this will be diluted.

And if James can become the new king in Miami and become the absolute soul of this Heat team, then everything in the past will be completely forgotten, and people will still praise him

Yes, this is the NBA, the winner is king!

However, there seems to be some small deviations in this plot.

The Heat are indeed strong and unstoppable! They killed the Greens, the biggest rivals in the West, the Spurs and the Lakers, both overturned, and the championship seems to be in the bag for the Heat

But for LeBron James, there are new troubles.

Wade's performance was so strong that he was completely left out.

So in this G4, James had to prove himself no matter what. Before the game, he discussed with Coach Spoelstra to give him more scoring scenes.

Coach Spoelstra also agreed, and even shifted James' playing time a little bit, allowing him to play with the bench in the rotation.

Of course, James must seize this opportunity and let the whole world take a look. He can also lead the Heat to victory and even the championship!

In the second half of the second quarter, it became a confrontation between James and Bai Feng.

Here Bai Feng plays like a elf, and James plays like a bulldozer there.

Two completely different styles, but the effect is similar.

At the end of the first half, the Knicks at home were 4 points ahead with 63:59.

With 15 points and 2 assists in the second quarter, Bai Feng had a double-double of 23 points and 10 assists in the half.

On the other hand, James took over the game in the second quarter, scoring 18 points in a single quarter, so he scored a high of 25 points in the half.

For Knicks fans, such a half has been played well.

Although the lead was not as big as the previous game, the last game was based on the abnormally strong bench lineup.

In this game, the Knicks' backup lineup returned to normal and became abnormally stretched. Under such circumstances, it is already thankful that they can still take the lead.

However, one thing to say, the Knicks were able to maintain the lead in this game, and Bai Feng's performance was a big part of it.

Halftime, at this time, in the distant Dragon Kingdom, the fans of the Dragon Kingdom are discussing and carnival enthusiastically.

"Bai Feng played really well in the first half. The entire Knicks team is counting on his performance."

"Today's Bai Feng is a bit like the shadow of Steve Nash's peak "even stronger than Nash!"

"This is the scene of the Eastern Conference Finals, and the Heat are still playing against the Big Three. The most important thing is that Bai Feng is only 20 years old. What will he grow up to in the future? I can't imagine it at all.

"Hahaha, what can't be imagined, boldly imagine that the number one player in the NBA in the future will be our Dragon Country player."

"This NM, I dare not think about the series in my lifetime. If Bai Feng really becomes the first player in the league, then Dragon Country basketball will rise!"

Bai Feng and the Knicks set off a huge basketball whirlwind in the Dragon Country.

As the weather is getting hotter and people are starting to spend more time outdoors, basketball courts that can be seen everywhere have obviously become a good choice.

According to incomplete statistics, the density of fans on basketball courts this year is more than three times that of the same period last year!

Such a grand situation has not been achieved in the past ten years.

And with Dayao appearing at the Knicks game scene and wearing Bai Feng's fan uniform to watch the game, it has made domestic fans discuss again and again.

"Is Dayao planning to join the team? Why is he there every time?"

"Bai Feng's number one fan, Dayao, hahaha, there is no sense of disobedience."

"It should be Dayao who has found a successor. Isn't it rumored that he will have a retirement ceremony in July? If he retires, Bai Feng can become the first basketball player in Longguo and take over from him.

"Hey, I don't want Dayao to retire, it would be nice if he played for a few years."

…for flowers………………

In the Knicks locker room, Bai became the focus of everyone.

Played a good half-time ball, allowing the team to regain confidence and completely come out of the shadow of the 16-point reversal in the previous game.

Although Anthony only scored 8 points in the entire first half, he felt bad today and did not meet his expectations of the game at all, which made him a little uncomfortable.

But seeing Bai Feng's performance like this, he still said with excitement: "Bai Feng, tonight, we can see you, you are so good, you will definitely lead us to victory, just like the first round. Like a bull!"

Anthony said, and immediately got the echo of all the players.

Is Carmelo Anthony the kind of player with no heart?

Obviously not, his competitive spirit may be higher than LeBron James, otherwise, he will not be with LeBron James.

LeBron James has been tit for tat for so many years.

Nor would he have had that kind of trash talk with James in the last game.

Of course, this doesn't ruin their friendship.

Initially planning to come to the Knicks, of course Anthony wanted to be the boss of this team!

Although the famous player of Stoudemire has outstanding ability, he is not suitable to be the boss due to his character. When he was in the Suns, the team boss was also Steve Nash.

It is with this in mind that Anthony has a soft spot for New York.

He believes that after the Knicks, the position of the team leader must be his.

So even if it proves that he is not compatible with Stoudemire, and the team has to reshuffle the cards, it will be Stoudemire who will be sent away in the future, not himself.

After all, this alliance is a business alliance, and there is nothing wrong with it.

However, after arriving at the Knicks, Anthony was surprised to find that the atmosphere of this team is quite good.

Although Xiao Si is a talker, he is very enthusiastic and does not fight or rob.

The rookie Bai Feng, with outstanding ability, stable style of play, and easy to get along with off the court, doesn't seem to have any ambitions.

Even Stoudemire has privately expressed his support for Anthony as the boss.

Such a team environment made Anthony very warm, and soon, he became "good brothers" with Stoudemire and Bai

What followed was an incredible 17-game winning streak at the end of the regular season and miraculously made the playoffs.

That is to say, during that time, Anthony found that the three of them had a very good chemical reaction together. At least the division of labor was clear, which was very suitable.

In this way, he began to cherish this combination, and there is no longer the kind of team leader who must listen to his ideas.

In the playoffs, even more so.

Bai Feng can always stabilize the rhythm, never make mistakes, and can stand up to score at critical moments.... Obviously, Bai Feng will become an indispensable part of this team.

In such a team, Anthony's collective sense of honor is getting stronger and stronger, and he even has a dedication.

He took the blame decisively for the loss in the last game [and was determined to lead the team to bring the victory back in G4.

Now, although it was not him who led the team to play a beautiful first half, but Bai Feng, but Anthony did not have that kind of jealousy at all.

You have to perform on the field yourself.

His appreciation for Bai Feng and his desire to win made him completely abandon his useless self-esteem!

He has already thought about it, since he is not in good shape, then in the second half, he will play a good support and contribute his own strength to the victory.

Soon, the halftime is over, and the second half of the game is about to begin.

The starters from both sides returned to the field.

On the court side, on the Heat's coaching bench, Spoelstra and a group of assistant coaches looked relaxed.

They have led the series 2:1 and have absolute initiative. Although the Knicks played beautifully in the first half of this game, the Heat were only 4 points behind.

And, they don't think the Heat will lose this game.

Just at halftime, Spoel took the coaching staff to summarize and summarize the characteristics of the Knicks in the first half today, and formulated a series of countermeasures for the second half.

They quickly found a solution.

This plan will target the Knicks' biggest weakness, and obviously, the Heat have more tactical options with good bench depth.

And these places that are inconspicuous or not worthy of attention to ordinary fans can often decide the outcome of the game.

"The performance of the superstar determines the win or loss of the playoffs", of course, this is true.

But coach Spoelstra doesn't think the Knicks have superstars.

Whether it is Anthony or Stoudemire, they are far from reaching this level.

As for that rookie Bai Feng, he still has a long way to go.

So, what is a superstar?

Look at Dwyane Wade, maybe people have forgotten about the Finals five years ago.

But G3 two days ago was still in sight, scoring 49 points and leading the team to complete a 16-point reversal and quasi-lore opponent.

This is what a superstar should do!
