After the Magic's condition improved, they did not approach the score gap. On the contrary, the Knicks' strong response on the offensive end made the score gap slowly widening.
At the end of the third quarter, the score on the field reached 98:67, and the Knicks led by 31 points at the end of the third quarter.
In the fourth quarter, Stan Van Gundy replaced all the substitutes at the beginning of the game. The main players of the Magic also breathed a sigh of relief. The pressure on their Knicks against the Knicks was too great, especially the Knicks' defense,
It makes every attack of the Magic seem particularly difficult.
If possible, they really don't want to meet the Knicks in the regular season or even the playoffs, but this is obviously unlikely. This is the first game of the regular season this season. If you push back, they will still have to go with
The Knicks played three games, one of which was home and two away games.
The Magic of the replacement lineup also declared that the battle of "revenge" ended in failure.
All the fans of Amway Arena were full of disappointment. They did not expect that the magic tricks they encountered were so weak.
Many fans angrily threw away the popcorn in their hands and left the audience with curses. They didn't want to see the team they supported at home be defeated by their opponents.
The middle-aged man also sighed, his expectations were dashed, and at this time he called his son beside him and stood up to walk towards the safe passage.
At this time, the little boy slammed the big eyes of the man and said, "Daddy, are you leaving? Didn't you say our team will beat the opponent? Why are they all sitting on the bench?"
"Uh... kid, we call it a timely stop loss. This game is no longer able to turn the tables, so our players are conserving their physical strength and accumulating strength for the next blow to the opponent. Yes, yes, that's right!" The middle-aged man
After a brainstorming, he said that he almost believed this reason.
"But……"
"Nothing, but Thomas, you have to tell me who Susan is and what's going on!" The middle-aged man saw that his son was still trying to ask a question, and hurriedly interrupted in a rough tone.
The middle-aged man was in a very bad mood.
I don’t know whether he got angry because of the Magic’s defeat and lost, or because of the little boy’s early love!
However, it should be that the Magic team suffered a crushing defeat. After all, it seems that all children in the United States are more precocious. If all parents are like this, they probably won’t have the so-called “free” relationship!
...
At the end of the game, the Knicks defeated the Magic 120:85 away, ending the Magic's six-game winning streak.
In this game, Sir returned to the first game, scoring the highest score, 42 points and 14 rebounds.
Lian Dao played in three quarters, but in this game he focused more on organizing the offense, but he also scored 26 points, 11 rebounds and 16 assists. Lian Dao also scored a triple-double in two consecutive games.
The Magic's highest scorer was Dwight Howard, with 24 points and 18 rebounds, and the best performance was Brandon Bass, with 17 points and 9 rebounds.
In this game, Sir Jr. helped Cousins defend Howard, so Brandon Bass was often open, but fortunately this guy didn't have the ability to make three-pointers.
After the Knicks defeated the Magic, they also won four consecutive victories.
After defeating the Magic, the Knicks' matches in December ended.
In December, the Knicks had a total of 13 games, and the Knicks also scored 10 wins and 3 losses. Although the Knicks did not have consecutive back-to-back games in December, many of the teams they played against in December were from the east and west.
Playoffs Strong Team.
The Knicks also encountered an injury crisis within the team in December. They were able to win 10 games among the opponents all over the powerful, which is enough to show the Knicks' comprehensive strength.
With the end of the December game, the selection of "Player of the Month" in December is coming.
There was another disagreement in this selection.
In addition to the Knicks' record in December, the Heat's record in December was also very good.
They played in a total of 16 games in December, achieving a perfect record of 14 wins and 2 losses. Except for the loss to the Dallas Mavericks and the New York Knicks, they all ended in victory in the rest of the games.
The league also blew a "Heat storm" in December!
James and Wade's data were also very good in December. Dwyane Wade averaged 27.9 points, 4.9 rebounds and 7.1 assists per game in December; James scored 25.2 points, 7.9 rebounds and 5.8 assists.
Liandao's data in December was even better, averaging 48.7 points, 6.8 rebounds and 7.9 assists per game.
According to the data, Lian Dao's data in December crushed Wade and James, and there was no problem in awarding the "Player of the Month" to Lian Dao.
However, Lian Dao has become so popular recently, and it has also aroused the jealousy of some people. Some people even privately said that the NBA will soon be captured by international players.
In fact, the NBA has some unfair treatment of international players. In the selection of some important awards, if the data of local players and international players are not much different, they will give priority to local players.
Unless international player data appear, the whole nation crushes local players, they will have to vote for international players.
The same is true this time. Although Lian Dao completely crushed the Heat's James and Wade in terms of data, the Knicks' record in the team was indeed not as good as the Heat because they suffered three consecutive losses in December.
At this time, some people raised doubts at the NBA headquarters. Some people supported the award of the "Player of the Month" trophy to Lian Dao, but some people believed that it should be given to LeBron James or Dwyane Wade.
The reason they gave was that the Heat were the best team in the Eastern Conference in December, and the "Player of the Month" should select the best players from the teams with the best record.
When they said this, they probably forgot that in the Western Conference's "Player of the Month" in January last season, they directly ignored the Los Angeles Lakers with the best record in January, and chose to give them a poor record, but the player
Chris Paul, the Hornets star with excellent statistics.
The two sides also argued endlessly about this.
Not only that, Miami fans and New York fans were also quarreling on Twitter and Facebook. Miami fans supported James and Wade, while New York fans supported Lian Dao.
"The best player in the month should be the best player in the team with the best record. There is no dispute about this, and the appraisal has been completed!"
"The ones upstairs are just looking at nightclubs and lost their brains. Sickle's data directly beat Dwyane and LeBron. The best player in the month should be the strongest player in the East!"
"Haha, just a data brush. Is it the best player of the month after the first-hand data?"
"There is no brainstorm upstairs, the identification has been completed!"
...
As this matter continues to ferment on the Internet, many media have also launched sections to discuss this matter.
It is estimated that no one expected that a "player of the month" could cause a stir in the NBA.
This is the attention of the superstars such as Lian Dao, James and Wade. This horror of its own traffic has been invisibly magnified by the two cities of New York and Miami!
In the end, it was David Stern who decided that the Eastern Conference's "Player of the Month" in December were two people, one was the Knicks' Lian Dao and the other was the Heat's LeBron James.
As for why it’s not Wade, David Stern thinks that Lian Dao and James, who are both No. 3 players, will be more attentive to each other!
At the same time, the West's Best Player was confirmed. Kevin Durant was elected the West's Best Player of the Month with a record of 29.4 points, 5.7 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game.
If the best players in the statistics are selected from the team with the best record as some people said, then the best player in the Western Conference month will only be the Spurs, not Durant.
Compared with the old Spurs players, David Stern must choose Durant, the new generation superstar.
David Stern's decision did not stop the quarrel between fans in New York and Miami.
On the contrary, as this incident continues to ferment, there is a trend of becoming increasingly fierce on the Internet.
