As a player who led the team to a championship that year, Wade is a person who can recognize reality. He knows that when he is 1:3 behind, let alone winning the series, he just wants to drag the game into a tiebreaker.
It's a luxury for the Heat!
If the Heat could really win two consecutive games against the Knicks, the situation would definitely not be like this.
Wade's mind was in chaos, and he just sat on the floor motionless. No one knew what he was thinking at this time.
But James remained motionless as he watched the data comparison above the court. Lian Dao's data seemed like a thorn, piercing deeply into James' heart.
From losing the regular season MVP, to allowing Lian Dao to score 52 points, to losing this crucial game, this has undoubtedly become the most frustrating day in the careers of the Heat's Big Three.
When the Cavaliers faced the Celtics, James never felt so frustrated.
Obviously, Lian Dao only scored 36 points in the fourth quarter, but in an overtime period, his 48 minutes of hard work disappeared.
After scoring 16 points in 4 minutes, Lian Dao's performance made James feel particularly frustrated.
LeBron suddenly felt his eyes getting hot, and then a few drops of water appeared on the floor under his feet.
Reporters at the scene found James, but James turned away, took off his jersey, covered his head, and left directly.
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, www. Install the latest version. 】
He doesn't want his current appearance to be photographed by the media. He is the chosen one. Even if he is the chosen one who loses the game, he still has his own pride.
The Knicks won the Heat's home court, and then the Heat went to New York to challenge the Knicks' home court.
But now, neither James nor Wade may dare to pat their chests and guarantee that they will definitely win at Madison Square Garden.
In overtime, James was completely defeated by the crazy Lian Dao.
James walked towards the tunnel with a lonely expression, and Wade stood up and walked towards the tunnel as if he had lost his soul.
The cheap rice on site is particularly popular.
The media reporters at the scene all gathered around the superstar who scored 52 points in the game and defeated the Heat in overtime. Whether they were really optimistic about the Knicks or they were just wallflowers before, they all knelt down and licked his lips.
"Sickle, why do you have such a strong physical ability and be able to explode in overtime?"
"Sickle, after you get the match point, will you defeat the Heat in one fell swoop in the next game?"
"If the Heat's Big Three explode like they did in G2 in the next game, can you still beat the Heat?"
"..."
When faced with questions from reporters at the scene, Lian Dao always rambled and answered absentmindedly.
The reporters at the scene didn't care either. They thought Lian Dao was overwhelmed by this hard-won victory.
After all, this young man who played a great game is still under 20 years old. Facing such a great moment, it is understandable that he would be emotional.
But in fact, Lian Dao is not what the media thought.
What he was thinking was that two days later, he would hold his first NBA championship trophy at Madison Square Garden, and the honor he created would hang in the sky above Madison Square Garden.
Madison Square Garden is not without honors. There are two championship flags and six Eastern Conference championship flags flying above the stadium.
But those honors do not belong to Lian Dao, they belong to the past glory of the Knicks. He needs to write his own history and create his own glory in Madison Garden.
Lian Dao is confirmed as the Eastern Conference champion!
After 3:1, there is no need to continue to struggle with the Heat.
The next game back in New York is the best chance to defeat the Heat. Two days later, it will be the Heat's last show of the season.
…
The Knicks led the Heat with a big score of 3:1 and got the match point in this series.
Lian Dao scored 50+ points in a single game and showed great power in overtime. His performance of 16 points in 4 minutes became the focus of the second day.
At the same time, Lian Dao also refreshed his scoring record in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Although there are still many people who cannot accept the fact that the powerful Big Three of the Heat will be defeated by the Knicks.
But the Knicks, who were despised by the league as the "player graveyard" two years ago, are really going to make it to the Finals this time.
There are already some fans on the streets of New York celebrating the Knicks reaching the Finals in advance. Both sides of the street are filled with slogans and flags with the words "NBA Finals" written on them.
The Knicks' official website has already begun pre-sale tickets for the team's finals.
The Knicks are not blindly confident. So far in the NBA, there have been eight situations in which a 1:3 deficit was reversed, and the situation in the Eastern and Western Conference finals was reversed only once.
Moreover, the Heat were behind 1:3 not because they were in poor condition, but because they had tried their best but still couldn't win.
James scored 26 points in the last game, Wade scored 28 points, Bosh scored 20 points, Mike Bibby scored 8 points, Mike Miller scored 9 points, the five of them scored 91 points together, you can still count on them
Can more be done?
The Knicks did not allow the Heat's Big Three to perform explosively at the American Airlines Center. Will the Knicks give the Heat's Big Three such a chance when they come to the Knicks' home court?
Therefore, everyone believes that the Knicks can completely end everything in the next game at Madison Garden.
Lian Dao thought so too. He couldn't wait to return to the home court and the fifth game.
Madison Square Garden, the home of the Knicks, is known as the "Basketball Mecca". Many of the NBA's major decisions are held in Madison Square Garden every year, such as the draft.
Moreover, Madison Square Garden is the earliest large-scale dedicated basketball stadium in the United States.
Of course, many stars' shining moments are always staged here. Jordan always scores more than 40 points here, and the famous "Miller Moment" is also staged here.
If we talk about the old background, the Knicks are definitely ahead of the Spurs.
But whether it is honor or shame, this has created the glorious history of this arena.
Although Madison Garden Arena is not like Staples and North Shore Garden, the showroom is full of honors, but the Knicks still have a glorious history. When Lian Dao first joined the Knicks, he was also taken to visit the showroom.
Ichiban.
Two championship trophies, six Eastern Conference championship trophies, Walter Frazier, Bill Bradley, Earl Monroe, Willis Reed, Patrick Ewing, etc.
Introduction to some players' honors, contributions, retired player jerseys, and their wonderful moments on the court.
This is the baptism that every rookie must undergo when joining the Knicks. When he visited the Honors Exhibition Hall, Lian Dao was greatly shocked. He imagined that one day the honors he created would be displayed here, so that all new members who join the Knicks can
All the players feel the greatness.
The fifth game between the Knicks and the Heat was the day Lian Dao won his first championship trophy, and it was also the day Lian Dao took the first step to achieve his goal.
In fact, not only Lian Dao, but also other Knicks players could not suppress their inner excitement. After all, most of them are young players in their 24s and 5s.
Everyone wants to leave their own glorious history in this league. Otherwise, why did David Lee renew his contract with the Knicks for one year? It was because the Knicks gave him hope of winning the championship.
David Lee, a second-generation rich man, has no shortage of money, but he is particularly yearning for honors within his reach.
"Boss, tell me, if we beat the Heat, what kind of celebration would be cooler?"
Gallinari, who was shooting a three-pointer like Lian Dao, couldn't help but approach Lian Dao and asked.
"Fuck, Danilo, I think you're distracted. The game hasn't even started yet, and you started planning your celebrations a day in advance?"
"Don't underestimate the Heat. They formed the Big Three in the first year. Whether it's LeBron or Dwyane, they will not give up easily, even if they are in a desperate situation now."
"There is a saying in our hometown that rabbits bite when they are anxious. Be careful of the opponent's counterattack. If you still have this mentality, Mike will probably put you on the bench in the next game!"
Lian Dao was speechless. Before the game even started, this guy was already drifting. In fact, not only Gallinari, but other players were also a little bit drifting.
This is normal. After all, the Heat, known as the devil of the league, were forced to draw 1:3. They all felt that it was impossible for the Heat to complete a comeback, so it was easy for them to become complacent.
