Although the Knicks won 11 consecutive games against the Celtics, many people thought it was a surprise, and no one expected that the Knicks would continue to move forward, they actually won 16 in a row, which is also the best winning streak in the entire league this season, and there is only one game in the regular season, if the Knicks can win, they will have 17 consecutive wins, and the record will be broken again.

Since defeating the Boston Celtics, the Knicks have been invincible, whether it is the Eastern Conference leader Magic or the Atlanta Hawks, no one can stop their victory, no matter luck, strength, in short, the Knicks will set off a bloody storm wherever they go.

Romantics thought it was a summer fairy tale; And cynics will see this as a precursor to the wolf.

The whole league is screaming for the Knicks, and everyone is looking for a team that can stop the Knicks in their tracks.

In the face of such a strong "nouveau riche", Pat, who is also the god operator of the Heat team in the East, has to be impressed, and Pat came and said that this Knicks are the future enemy of the Heat.

Now it's not just Pat who is here, many Eastern teams are vigilant, the Knicks have become sixth in the East after 16 consecutive wins, and the Knicks' rise has become inevitable.

The Knicks' last opponent this season is the Philadelphia 76ers, the Knicks are sixth in the East, and the 76ers are 12th in the East.

The 76ers' playoff dream has been shattered, they used dense defense to fight this game, in fact, this season the Knicks are experts in breaking dense defense, and the 76ers' defense is not too good, otherwise they would not sit on the third-to-last throne, but in addition to dense defense, the referee has also become an accomplice, referee Crawford looks like a black whistle, in fact he is a faint whistle, and his tolerance for physical confrontation is outrageous. A game full of rough fouls was actually blown clean and elegant by him, and no player was sent off. After the match, D'Antoni said lightly that Crawford should actually go to officiate the kickboxing tournament. He went to the wrong venue.

Luck and impatience are twin sisters, impatience makes bad luck, and bad luck makes players even more impatient, and the Knicks took a total of 85 shots in this game. hit 30 goals, Li Feng hit 18 goals alone, Li Feng, who couldn't cry or laugh, looked up to the sky and sighed, "It's not that we don't work hard, it's the basket that doesn't let us win." ”

After this game. Almost all newspapers and television broadcast the news, and the 76ers became heroes, "Philadelphia Bild" said, "The end of the 16-game winning streak of the 76ers, which is something that no one could have imagined, the 76ers did what the Magic and the Celtics did not do, and if the Knicks continue to win like this, the only way to let them go to Mars to play." The New York Times said: "Although the 16-game winning streak was ended. But the Knicks also set a new record for the longest winning streak of the season. Their performance has scared everyone, and that terror is now spreading to the playoffs. Li Feng, who has cut 40+ in a row, has become the leader of the Knicks, and this state is difficult for even the champion Blake Griffin to match. ”

Brussad, an old friend of Li Feng's longtime friend, began with a poetic comment, "The mighty Knicks were snapped by the tiny 76ers, and Madison remains unbreakable, but the flame of hope has been lit." Defeat has appeared, will the losing streak be far away? ”

Even a lot of non-sports media outlets covered the game. USA Today commented after the game: "Mr. Dolan's team was beaten by the 76ers after they had a 16-game winning streak. But the regular season is over, and they're turning their attention to another battleground – the playoffs. Although the winning streak was ended and the Knicks players were a little unhappy that they could not meet the playoffs with a victory, head coach D'Antoni thought it was better to keep a low profile and make a big move, and they did have reservations about this game, because this game was back-to-back, in addition to Li Feng, Eddie Corey, James Harden and Marcus Thornton only played a total of 40 minutes. …,

The Knicks' playoff history in the last six years is a blank, and they haven't even made the playoffs...... And now that the opportunity has come, they have not only made the playoffs, but also the winning streak is still on the way, and it is not impossible to make it to the second round if they can go all the way.

The regular season has come to an end, and the Knicks' game capped the regular season to a 50% win rate of 42-40 to retain sixth place in the East.

On the Eastern side, the Orlando Magic are in first place with a 58-24 record, followed by the Boston Celtics in second, the Cleveland Cavaliers in third, the Atlanta Hawks in fourth, the Milwaukee Bucks in fifth, the New York Knicks in sixth, the Indiana Pacers in seventh and the Chicago Bulls in eighth.

West: Lakers (57-25), Mavericks (55-27), Suns (54-28), Nuggets (53-29), Jazz (53-29), Trail Blazers (50-32), Spurs (50-32), Thunder (50-32) are in the top eight, and the Houston Rockets have the same record as the New York Knicks, but only finished ninth in the West and missed the playoffs.

According to the playoff rules, the New York Knicks will face the Cleveland Cavaliers, not the Boston Celtics, who have been "previewed" before.

When it comes to the Cavaliers, it is naturally their "little emperor" James, under the multiple care of godfather Stern, the young monkey who can only dunk with his body in 03 has become one of the most powerful players in the league, and the Cavaliers of the Jamesan are even more championships this season.

Last season, the Cavaliers went on a high-performance run with a league-best 66-win regular-season record, the largest margin of wins and regular season MVP, LeBron James, but they beat Dwight Howard in the Eastern Conference Finals, so they brought in the aging Shaq O'Neal in the summer.

The Cavaliers' offensive efficiency ranks fourth in the league, and the newly added O'Neal and Bowe on the inside are significantly stronger in offense than "Big Z" Ilgoskas and Ben Wallace, while Parker and Moon on the outside are not inferior to Pavlovich and Szczebiak.

For the Cavaliers, they have only one goal this season, and that is to win a championship. Not winning a championship is a failure, because if they don't win a championship this year, then they are likely to lose James. If James is lost, I really don't know what kind of team the Cavaliers will become.

The Clevelands may be heartbroken by the loss of James, but their opponent, the New York Knicks, is happy to hear about it.

As we all know, the Knicks have always wanted to bring in James, especially in the first meeting between the Knicks and the Cavaliers this season, the Cavaliers visited New York City to challenge the Knicks LeBron James to score 26 points, and it only took three quarters to finish the opponent, and the New York fans, who have always been known for their harshness, did not embarrass their home team, and they did not even show disappointment or indignation at the final gap of 18 points, because they decided that the No. 23 who was in Madison Garden would be his own family in two years.

New York, full of citizens with their heads held high at gorgeous 45-degree angles, a city you can send to if you love him or hate him, who had been bullied for a long time by another great 23 wrapped in a red coat, and now they want to build their own 23 — not Quentin Richardson, of course.

There's an interesting detail about the game: New York is the first place for sports brands to debut, so it's not unusual for James to wear a new pair of sneakers to advertise Nike every time he goes to New York, but on that day, James appeared in a pair of very eye-catching red sneakers, and the Knicks' "mascot" - Spike Lee also wore an identical pair of boots to cheer on the game. When the Knicks' Nate Robinson saw it, he was very angry and rushed up to step on the "traitor's" sneakers, but the great director Lima stopped him and said, "Hey, stop!" He's going to be your teammate! ”…,

After the game, James used an ambiguous passage to prevaricate reporters about whether he could go to New York after his contract with the Cavaliers, saying that "San Antonio is also a small-ball city, but Duncan has been successful there." But is Duncan's business value the same as James'? This is something for all to see.

Two days later, William Wesley, a close friend of James, told the New York Daily News that the Knicks were in a very good position in the 2010 James race.

Not lively enough? Two days later, "Big Mouth" Barkley couldn't hold back the fire, accusing James of blaspheming basketball, the sport and the current club of Cavaliers for frequently babbling about where to go in 2010 during the contract period, and James only replied: "He's stupid." That's it."

On the one hand, there is the fiery enthusiasm of the New Yorkers, and on the other hand, James's ambiguous statement, but at the same time, he does not allow opponents to make mistakes, does the deep meaning need to be investigated?

This is the story that happened at the end of 2008, this is the story that happened to the "little emperor" James, before that, the Nets sold Kidd and Jefferson successively, the Pistons completely dismantled the 2004 championship team, the Knicks in exchange for a batch of short contracts that expired in 2010, and the Trail Blazers, the team in Portland, the headquarters of Nike, since the summer of 06 have tried not to provide more than 4 years of contracts to their players, the purpose is self-explanatory......

Even if Li Feng led the Knicks to create 16 consecutive wins to bring the playoffs, this can't dispel their thirst for James, although Li Feng and James may not be right, but many people will subconsciously ignore this problem, especially many New York fans, they just want to get James!

Perhaps, Michael Jordan, a New York boy who wore the Bulls' No. 23 jersey, failed to conquer New York, but LeBron James, who wore the Cavaliers No. 23, conquered the Big Apple.

Really?
