Because of Zuo Li's big kill in the interior, the Knicks finally easily defeated the Orlando Magic with a 20-point advantage on the road, winning 17 consecutive victories, and their single-month record was fixed at 15 wins and 0 losses. magical record.
The Knicks also became the first team in history to win a game in the first month of the game, and the eighth team in history to be undefeated in a single month.
The 17-game winning streak is also the second-longest winning streak in the history of the Knicks, second only to the 18-game winning streak led by Willis Reed in the 69-70 season. It is worth mentioning that it was also the first time the New York Knicks won the championship. Days, I don't know how the Knicks will be this year.
The star of this game is of course Zuo Li, who scored 10 points, 15 rebounds, 15 blocks and 8 assists in three quarters. He scored such a luxurious triple-double in three quarters, it can even be called a quasi-quadruple-double. What did Zuo Li show in this game? The world's best defense.
Those who were dissatisfied with Zuo Li's victory over Howard last season to pick up the youngest defensive player in history can shut up tonight. After all, is there anything more convincing than defeating the competition head-on.
Howard was honored to be the most disappointing player in the game. He made only 3 of 11 shots, 3 of 7 free throws, and only 9 points and 10 rebounds. His immature mentality and being limited by Zuoli are the magic's loss tonight. The main reason for the fiasco.
The rest of the Magic also played in general, Carter scored a team-high 19 points, Nelson 14 points, Lewis 9 points.
Strong sacrifice read sacrifice. The Knicks’ first scorer was Curry, who scored 26 points, and Dragic also scored 22 points. Two-thirds are layups...
Immediately after the game, Van Gundy criticized the team's performance. He believed that the team played too softly tonight and did not have the momentum of a strong team at all. By the way, he also said that the tactics they prepared for this game were all If you don't type it out, the next encounter will not be so simple.
For Dafan's harsh words, Knicks coach D'Antoni responded jokingly: "Compared with their performance on the court, their mouths are obviously stronger, and I'm looking forward to the next time they can do something different."
D'Antoni's ridicule made the reporters laugh. Isn't that what D'Antoni means? But after watching this game, D'Antoni said nothing wrong.
D'Antoni is different now from last season. He was very low-key at all times last season. After all, the strength of the team and the depth of the lineup are there. It's not good to be careful.
But this season is different. 17 consecutive victories is something that everyone will feel satisfied with, and the Knicks are young, with unlimited potential, and the lineup is thick enough. The defeat last season also made them full of motivation, so it is time to give the whole league. Bright sword.
Well, even if D'Antoni is off, no one dares to ignore the Knicks. For Knicks fans, this month is a dream, and it should be said to be the most dreamy month in team history.
The team remained undefeated, breaking the record for the best start, 17 consecutive victories occupied the second place in team history, and at the same time occupied the first place in the league, 4 games ahead of the second-place Cavaliers.
Zuo Li has repeatedly broken records, and even dominated the data list, and the MVP list also occupies the first position. All of this is simply too dreamy, which directly makes the fans of the Knicks who are used to the hard life shout out in disbelief.
ESPN and other domestic and foreign media have opened a special report for the Knicks on the night of the last game day of this month, focusing on analyzing why the Knicks suddenly have such terrifying combat power.
For a while, people can't see through this Knicks. You said that after the trade this summer, the Knicks' lineup looks very ordinary.
Yes, as we all know, the Knicks were the team in the finals last season and even forced the Lakers to Game 7, but last season was special.
The Cavaliers lost early, the Celtics also lacked key players, and even the Magic was without Nelson, so many people thought the Knicks were lucky to enter the finals.
Of course, there are also strong players like Zuo Li and Randolph in the team, so this summer, many people recommend that the Knicks make another giant, so that they will definitely be able to compete with the Lakers and Celtics. Break your wrist.
But the result?
The Magic got Carter, one of the four quarterbacks, the Celtics got Rasheed Wallace, the Pistons, the Lakers got the villain Artest, and the Cavaliers got Shaquille O'Neal...
This time 17*BXW* Zhang Si. The Knicks... brought in Curry, Danny Green, Beverley three rookies, role players like Gabelinelli and Anderson, and cleared out a few veterans by the way...
Ah this...
Such a Knicks, how do people think he can win the championship?
However, the Knicks have defeated the Cavaliers, the Celtics, the Lakers, and the Magic, the four most popular teams to win the championship, and the Ssangyong at home and away. .
This is so worth analyzing.
ESPN believes that the Knicks are strong in the evolution of Zuoli: "Zuo Li is stronger, free throws are more accurate so that he has no obvious weaknesses, better shooting makes him more threatening, single defense can never be defended, because he always has The method is wrong, his data is even more terrifying, the true hit rate is 79%, which is really incomprehensible."
TNT believes that the Knicks are strong in all people: "The Knicks have no waste There is no drinking fountain in the strict sense, everyone can play, and the leftovers you think play very well, which allows them to have A lot thicker than the average team, which is key in a long season."
On CCTV's side, Su Qun talked about tactics, thinking that the Knicks' tactics are very rich and very suitable: "D'Antoni is a tactical master, and his adjustment of the team's offense is undoubtedly successful. The Knicks' offense is smooth and fast. The offensive and counterattacks are excellent, and the ability to seize opportunities is strong, but the improvement of defense is the biggest reason for the success of the Knicks."
"The Knicks have a good defense, their offense is built on defense, and Zuo Li is a key player among them. His defense makes the Knicks rotate very well, and they are the league's first in counterattacks, rebounds, and blocks. , that's the secret of the Knicks' invincibility."
…
In any case, the Knicks are completely on fire, and their unbeaten month has also put them at the top of the championship prediction list.
As the center of the topic, Zuo Li naturally also saw everyone's analysis. In this regard, Zuo Li just wants to say that these are all right, but not all. According to Zuo Li, the biggest reason for the Knicks' success is the concept, the advanced basketball concept Let the Knicks not stick to the outdated rules. The so-called basketball must be played from the inside. In the Knicks, this is not important. It is the most important to play everyone's potential.
Make a big tyrant. Of course, Zuo Li naturally knew that the current Knicks are not invincible, it's just that the league team is not used to their style of play, and their entire team is in a burst, so they have been winning, and the road ahead will not be smooth.
But Zuo Li was always ready to meet the challenge.
