0402：

The Knicks players did not disappoint the broom-wielding fans all over the court, playing steadily under the leadership of Duger, firmly controlling the pace of the game from the first second of the opening game, and then increasing the score.... Orlando was powerless to stop a systematic defensive counter-attack without Dwight and Gortat.

As the restricted area was infiltrated by the Knicks, the point difference had reached an irretrievable point at the end of the third quarter, and Stan Van Gundy had no choice but to replace the bench and announce that he would abandon the game, while also acknowledging that the 0809 season of Orlando was over.

The game began in the fourth quarter as a time for the home fans to celebrate, and when Zach Randolph took to the court in the penultimate minute, the cheers at Madison Garden reached their peak.

People didn't expect Randolph to be able to return to the ring, and to be honest, they almost forgot that Randolph existed, as if a century had passed.

Puff puff!

Fat Lan slammed three times under the basket, and although his posture of pouting his ass was a little awkward, but... Poor old Barty was still knocked out by him two or three meters, and then he turned around easily...... Pretty a hook ...... Bang!

Basketball hits iron.

The scene was filled with good-natured laughter. Obviously, the Knicks players are not praying for Randolph to go on a killing spree in order to recover from workouts. Re-adaptation to confrontation is the mainstay.

However, Fat Lan didn't think so. South Africa's Pearl Race was sitting on the sidelines, and he asked to play today just to perform well in front of Pearl Race...... He wanted her to know that he not only had a strong body, but also a supple touch...... It is enough for her to enjoy multiple levels of comfort.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

However, he hadn't touched a basketball for too long...... The feel of this cowhide ball is still very different from **, even some women will use some silicone.

Fortunately, by this time, the Knicks had already taken a long lead, and no matter how many iron Randolph played, it would not affect the final result.

But... When Randolph stepped onto the court, it wasn't as simple as conceding a few shots.

This means that the Knicks have once again ushered in the offensive axis after 10 games without the offensive core, and he will form a real inside and outside duo with the rapidly improving Snoopy.

"The finals seem to have a little more to watch."

Reggie Miller said before the game: "Even though Randolph was very sluggish tonight. But... As long as he can make it to the court in the Finals, the strategic significance he brings to the Knicks is unmatched! I even think it's possible for them to steal a win in the entire series. ”

Judging from Randolph's form tonight, he is not enough to pose a threat to the Lakers, who have three elite interior lines: Pau Gasol, Andrew Bynum, and Lamar Odom. This year's Lakers are historic, and although the Sharks have been emphasizing the Lakers' lack of championships, I think this Lakers team is not inferior to the championship team in 2001. ”

Bill Walton said very seriously from his point of view: "Whether Randolph returns or not, 4:0 is the final score!" ”

McBrin agrees with Bill Wharton, who believes that Dugg and Randolph's inside-outside core strategy is no longer in line with the mainstream of the three-core in this era. Although they have a bright future, their achievements will definitely not reach the heights of the OK group back then.

"If LeBron James joins them, the Knicks might still have a chance. But now... The chances of them winning are zero! ”

McBrin concluded his closing remarks.

But... Reggie Miller added with a wicked smile, "Hey, Mike, don't say it so absolutely. What if the Lakers get injured? The Knicks now have their own opponent injury aura! It is said that the Lakers have bought double injury insurance for their players...... Of course, it's possible that it's just black humor. But, no one can deny this possibility, can they? ”

McBlin spread his hands, and his eyebrows flew in seriousness: "Okay, God testify, I take back that sentence just now." To know... Since the playoffs, the injury rate of Knicks opponents has been 100%! ”

Amid their gags, the match ended 132:109.

This game, in Bill Wharton's words, is... NBDL-level rookies peck at each other. The Magic abandoned the team offense from the start, and Nelson's only thought on the court was to pull up his Eastern Conference Finals points per game average to 26.5.

But it makes no sense.

Stan Van Gundy, despite his unkempt appearance, graciously hugged Herb Williams and finally took Duge's hand and said a long word.

It wasn't until an ESPN reporter pushed the camera up that he was finished.

And the reporter quickly approached him, hoping that he would say something about this round of the series.

"Congratulations to the Knicks, they're the best in the East! I'm very proud of them from the bottom of my heart and I'm confident that they will be able to play something extraordinary under Snoopy. ”

Stan Van Gundy looked at the camera and said seriously, "I'm different from all the other jealous people, I admire them from the bottom of my heart, and I know what Snoopy's strengths are. He's a very talented player, and his talent isn't just about the technical level, his tactical thinking is at the level of Phil Jackson and Vicky. ”

"We've been lacking a bit of luck in this round and I'll have a good chat with Dwight in the off-season because he needs to be more professional."

Stan Van Gundy talked about the loss, and after all, he still had some complaints about Howard.

In fact, Oran Multimedia has more than once revealed that Stan Van Gundy and Dwight Howard's agency team had a fierce conflict, and some Magic fans even took photos of Stan Van Gundy roaring in the hospital room.

No way, as a head coach, who can tolerate their absolute core spending the night before the game with three call girls?

And it also affects the course of the entire series.

However, the Magic management is still on the side of Howard, Howard's injury is not serious, and they know that the future team will rely on him, not Stan Van Gundy.

Therefore, in an interview with the president of the club, he categorically denied that Howard's injury was caused by an unprofessional attitude. He just stressed that it was an accident that no one wanted to see.

Such an explanation clearly did not satisfy Stan Van Gundy.

"I think the end result will be 4:2. The Lakers won the championship, but the Knicks would earn everyone's respect. ”

Stan Van Gundy finally faced the camera to make his prediction and told the camera very, very seriously: "Never, never, never underestimate Snoopy, his basketball IQ can make most NBA players despair!" ”

"This even surpasses his outstanding talent in capturing teenage stars in the entertainment industry!"

Stan Van Gundy has a rare dose of humor... Or to compliment the Duke.
