The other series have already been decided. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Heat eliminated the Pacers 4-1 and waited for their opponents in the East.

The Western Trail Blazers eliminated the Jazz 4-2 and met the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals. The aging Jazz team was able to play six games against the strong Trail Blazers, which was expected.

On May 28, the seventh game of Knicks vs Raptors started at Madison Square Garden.

Raptors starters: Billups, Christie, Carter, Detreve, O'Neal Jr.

The Knicks starting lineup has changed slightly: Ward, Houston, Johnson, Oakley, Ewing.

Van Gundy decided to return to the same 1996-1997 season, playing small forward with Johnson, moving around the corner, cutting to the basket at any time, Ward in the left corner, waiting for an opportunity to shoot a three-pointer, and Ewing was in charge.

This is Van Gundy's progress, and if he didn't stick to the first two games, he would definitely lose that game.

The Knicks' goal was to create a misalignment, Ewing singled out Christie, Houston struck O'Neal Jr., and Johnson singled out Carter. The Raptors insisted on single defense and did not have a large vacancy.

On the defensive end, the Knicks are also uncomfortable, a block in the middle is Ewing to defend Carter, Ewing defends the side, and Billups blocks and breaks through the offense, or attracts the defensive ball.

Detreve exploded, hitting two three-pointers in the quarter and scoring on a side-cut layup.

The Raptors led 25-20 in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, Yang Rui sent DeBron, Carter, Maddie, O'Neal Jr., and Willis. The Raptors went 11-0 and directly beat the Knicks.

Van Gundy fielded Ward, Childes, Sprewell, Oakley, Ben Wallace, and a two-guard guard. He thought the Raptors would do the same with a small lineup and not a big forward.

For him, the tactics that work very well, and he will definitely continue to play in the next game.

Yang Rui didn't need it, and the counterattack relied on the personal ability of Carter and Maddie, and he went head-to-head directly. Childs has a physical gap in the main defense, Carter, and he is deflated.

After playing 3 minutes, Van Gundy was forced to switch to Houston, and the difference had widened.

The Raptors immediately lowered the tempo, ensured the speed of the defense, strictly guarded the two outside stars, and put Childles, Oakley, and Big Ben to shoot.

Big Ben is treated as air, doesn't go inside, and cuts when he catches the ball under the basket.

The Knicks' offense is too poor to break through the Raptors' defense, Ewing is not there, and the quality of the two two-meter-tall interior blocking and dismantling is not good, only blocking, not demolition.

Van Gundy gave Ewing a four-minute break before coming on, putting the offensive burden on the star.

In the second half, the four stars of the Knicks were on the court, and the strongest offensive lineup played, narrowing the difference to only three points.

In the second half of the third quarter, Yang Rui fielded two guards, Maddy, Detreve and Willis. This lineup can play counterattacks and positions, and run wildly with the Knicks veterans to withstand the counterattack.

In the last quarter, Yang Rui sent Billups, Carter, Maddy, Detreve and Willis on the inside, controlled the rebound, launched a counterattack with a pass, and the veteran of the positional battle did not mess around, driving the whole team to run tactics.

After only three minutes of play, the difference widened to 14 points.

Childes single-defense Billups power loss, Sprewell's single-defense Carter strength loss, Johnson's single-defense Maddie's speed loss, Raptors run and bomb, relying on players to score heads-up, like the last series against the Magic, talent crushing.

The Raptors defended the Knicks' offense, and the two blue-collar offenses on the court were too poor, and Ben Wallace was cut after blocking and dismantling...... Big Ben shot 3 of 6, and the performance was not bad, but compared to himself.

Van Gundy replaced Ewing to strengthen the offense, but this substitution became the turning point of the game, and the Raptors quickly stretched the difference to 24 points with a wave of 10-0 and sealed the victory.

Ewing can't run at all, whether it's a counterattack or a positional battle, he will be easily passed by the guard, and once the Knicks are misplaced, they can't defend it, and after Big Ben and Childles are off the court, the Knicks have no vitality anymore, just rely on perseverance to support.

The Raptors players are also very tired, the newcomers don't know how to allocate physical strength reasonably, the regular season is the most running in the league, they have no reservations in the playoffs, and their form has slipped today.

Even if the newcomer is not in the best condition, he is better than the Knicks' veteran. And they know that this is a decisive game, if they don't fight at this time, when will they wait?

With two minutes to go, a number of home fans had already left the stadium early.

Shrill cheers rang out at Madison Garden, not for the home Knicks, but for the Raptors.

"Come on Raptors! Come on Raptors! The shouts from the crowd were like needles that struck the nerves of Van Gundy and Knicks owner James Dolan.

It's at home and the boss certainly doesn't want to hear that.

He could only pretend to think that these people were all Raptors fans who came to cheer on the road, and he had to think so, and he was really shocked if he didn't want to believe that those people were Knicks fans. The Knicks were champions last season, and they fell too quickly.

Van Gundy's face was extremely ugly, he was still white at the beginning, and now his face is completely black.

Zhang reasonably commented: "The Knicks once took the initiative in the series, but their performance in the last two games was not at all like wanting to advance, and they played listlessly. I think the main reason is that the season has been shortened, and the veterans have no strength at all. ”

Sun Zhengping said: "The boxer is afraid of being less strong, the performance of the Raptors this year surprised everyone, they really punched the master to death." ”

Zhang Li smiled: "If they win the Heat again, the Raptors will reach the Finals, they were still the bottom team in the league last season, and they have improved too much, Yang Rui deserves the best coach award, which is incredible." ”

111-87, the Raptors won by 24 points and eliminated the defending champion Knicks in an upset.

Maddie played 40 minutes and had some leg cramps when he was substituted, and Carter and Christie also played for a long time. The series is constantly battling muscles and confrontations with opponents, and the core is exhausted.

Yang Rui said that the Raptors have more people playing and the players can play a role, but in fact, they didn't use those marginal people much in this game, so that the core used all their strength.

When the final whistle blew, the most physical person was Yang Rui, who jumped up and cheered with his fists and hugged the players one by one.

The advantage of the coach is that he does not consume physical strength on the sidelines, and if he wins, he must have a share of the credit.

The Raptors players were smiling brighter than ever, and veteran Willis hugged Yang Rui hard. "Jerry, you amazing guy, I've come to join the Raptors this time."

"Well done, Kevin, let's go to the press conference later."

Today, Willis shot 6 of 11 and 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 14 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks.

Detreve shot 7-of-10, 3-of-4 from three-point range, 2-of-2 from the free-throw line, and finished with 19 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.

The Raptors scored in double figures with six players, with Maddy on the perimeter scoring a team-high 25 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, and Carter also having 22 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists.

It's been a tough series, and the young players have been trained and matured a lot.
