The moment the basketball fell into the hoop, the Raptors newcomers were stunned and couldn't believe it all for a long time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Especially Carter and Maddy, they have to be directly responsible for the loss, one gave the Knicks time to kill, and the other didn't defend the good guy.

Yang Rui's mentality is very flat, some things that should be yours are yours, there is no need to force it.

Zhang Li sighed: "The Raptors have two brothers in success and two brothers in defeat, they are too young, and veterans will not make such mistakes." Maddie defended that one last time, and Houston could also make a foul if he didn't break through and hit it directly. ”

Sun Zhengping said regretfully: "I think if it is overtime, it will be difficult for the Knicks to withstand, Ewing can't keep up with the defenders to break through, and Johnson is tired." ”

Toronto Sports Station felt even more regretful. Clark said depressedly: "The Raptors have countless chances to exceed the score and win this game, but it's a pity that they wasted all the opportunities, Billups and O'Neal felt too bad today." ”

Yang Rui walked up to Maddie and patted him on the back. "Don't be sad, you've done a good job, don't make this mistake again, we're not eliminated yet."

In his previous life, many people said that Maddie's desire to win was low, but he averaged 25+ points per game in six playoff times, 30+ points four times, and played an average of 43 minutes per game. It's just that people are declining and not winning.

This loss, Maddie is the saddest player.

O'Neal Jr. still seems to have a little smile on his baby face, and maybe he thinks it's great to be able to play like this with the Knicks in his rookie season.

Veterans Detreve and Willis are also calm, the Raptors' results this season have exceeded their imagination, and the Knicks do not have an absolute advantage, they may not be eliminated.

Van Gundy breathed a sigh of relief and walked onto the court to shake hands with Yang Rui.

"Jeff, congratulations."

"Thank you." Van Gundy was speechless, the series wasn't over yet, and he was still under a lot of pressure.

Yang Rui smiled slightly. "In the next two games, you won't be so lucky, I've figured out the weaknesses of the Knicks."

"We'll see." Van Gundy snorted.

He was a little unhappy, why did he seem like this kid was a winner?

Thinking of what Yang Rui said, "There is no failure when you are young", the Raptors are really not losers.

At the press conference, Carter depressed and said, "It's my fault that I lost. It wasn't supposed to be like that, the coach told me to shoot until the last minute and play extra time if I didn't score. But in an instant, I felt that the opportunity was good and I took it. I then thought about how stupid I was, even if that goal went in, we were only two points ahead and the opponent had a chance to shoot a three-pointer. ”

The reporter asked: "Do you think the Raptors still have a chance to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals?" ”

"Of course there is a chance, I will follow the coach's arrangements and will not make such low-level mistakes again."

Yang Rui did not criticize Carter, attributing the reason for the loss to luck. "I think the Raptors are better than the Knicks, it's just a little bit less lucky, I'm proud of the players, and it's going to be us who wins the next game, and the Raptors will come to New York to tie seven."

A New York reporter asked: "Even if you tie seven, the Raptors are at a disadvantage, right?" The Knicks have home-court advantage. ”

Yang Rui smiled: "It doesn't matter, our away win rate is not inferior to that of the home, while the Knicks have an Achilles' heel, few scoring points, and a big gap between the bench and the starter." I can guarantee that the Raptors' bench players will definitely defeat the Knicks' bench. With the depth of the squad, it will be us who will win. ”

A good coach should not only arrange tactics and tap the potential of players, but also be able to release "smoke bombs" and confuse opponents with words.

Yang Rui said this not to reuse the team's substitutes, but to create psychological pressure on Van Gundy and make him suspect that the Knicks' bench will be unreliable in the next game.

People with a big heart may not care, Van Gundy can't, he's neurotic, paranoid. Listening to Yang Rui say this, if there is a substitute who does not play well in the next game, he may be replaced immediately by him to sit on the bench.

This is a ploy against Van Gundy's character, how can the substitutes play well in every one? If Van Gundy follows Yang Rui's train of thought and increases the playing time of the main team, the real weakness of the Knicks will appear, that is, the physical fitness of the veteran.

In the end, the Knicks veteran can't run, and if the two sides play 7 games, although the Raptors players are also tired, they will definitely be better than the Knicks because they are young.

If Van Gundy continues with his previous rotation and doesn't add more minutes to the veterans, the Raptors will already be familiar with their routine. What Yang Rui is most afraid of is Van Gundy's reuse of Jackson and Atkins, if those two have the ball on the offensive end, they can definitely fight with the Raptors' bench.

In Yang Rui's eyes, these two are much more threatening than Childes and Ward. After the end of this season, Yang Rui plans to ask the management to contact their agent and strive to poach the Raptors, so that the lineup will be stronger.

The next day, most of the media were optimistic that the Knicks would advance to the Eastern Conference Finals, because the Raptors are the core of young people, and in key games, there may be problems with mentality, unable to play to their full strength, and prone to making mistakes.

Some Knicks fans are already discussing how to play the Eastern Conference finals against the Heat, and they don't feel like they need to steal seven.

In the sixth game, the Raptors, who were on the verge of elimination, were unwilling to be eliminated, and the popularity of the home court exceeded expectations.

This is the team's first time in the playoffs, and the home fans are very excited, and the staff distributed purple commemorative T-shirts in advance, uniform clothing, and cheered for the home team players.

Mobilized before the start of the game, General Manager Glenn Gruward took the microphone and took the lead in spitting out the dirty words: "FUCK Knicks"!

Such stimulating words can resonate with the scene, thereby driving the emotions of the fans, and many fans immediately shouted: "FUCK Knicks!" ”

The scolding shook the sky, and the festival fell to the ground.

This was to put pressure on the visiting team, and in the previous two home games, fans would boo loudly whenever the Knicks players had the ball, creating noise pressure. A lot of teams do that at home, so it's hard to get a bargain away from home.

Yang Rui had a black line on the sidelines, symbolically waving to the fans.

The Raptors have no enmity with the Knicks, he also took a ring with the Knicks last season, and it's a bit embarrassing to do it now.

He didn't expect Glenn to be such a passionate person. In his previous life, after Glenn was fired by the Raptors, he was invited by "Assassin" Isaiah Thomas to join the Knicks, where he worked for many years, and also served as the general manager of the Knicks after Thomas left.

Now because of the butterfly effect, it's no wonder that James Doranken wants this thing. Even if he had, Glenn wouldn't have go, and now he's made a name for himself and is seen as a rising hero in Toronto, where he's having a great time.

There was such a commotion at the scene, and the players were full of blood and strength. No matter what country people are, before fighting with their opponents, they generally have to fight against each other.

Yang Rui changed the lineup back to normal, with Maddy coming off the bench and Billups starting.

Playing like this, the offense in the second quarter is better, compared to running to catch and shoot, Carter is not as good as Billups, he is more suitable for holding the ball and playing the pick-and-roll offense, and if he doesn't play the fast break with Maddie, there is one person who can't play the full power.

The Raptors' defensive tactics have not changed, they are still man-to-man, and they must not shrink against teams that are good at shooting three-pointers, otherwise they will die very ugly.
