Chapter 919： In the name of MVP, sweep the promotion! (Down)

, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the genius of basketball madness in the left!

A game in which the whole process of the game cannot be seen from the results. Although the Knicks won by 14 points, after the game, the entire Knicks team expressed their respect for their opponents.

D'Antoni: "Yes, they are infinitely close to winning. In the third quarter, I thought we would be tied or even overtaken. If it wasn't for the three-pointer from Zuoli, maybe the game would have been a different outcome. Celtics deserve to be The league's top teams, they're really tough to deal with."

Curry: "God, my whole body hurts right now, it's been a tough game, I'm glad we won, to be honest, we really got beat up in the third quarter, thanks to Zuo Li, you know, He is our Dinghaishenzhen."

Battier: "Paul is a tough guy, I've always known that, so I'm following him all the time on the court, I try to make enough trouble for him, I try my best to defend, to interfere , but...obviously, I was blown away."

Zuo Li: "Winning has luck. I think I will give them the utmost respect. This is a real game."

…

In addition to the entire Knicks team, the media also affirmed the Celtics' indomitable temperament.

Even the Knicks fan A Smith admitted: "If it was two years ago, maybe the results of the game would have been completely different."

Yes, while the Celtics lost, they clearly earned the recognition with their indomitable performance.

Pierce went out for 47 minutes and made 11 of 20 shots, 5 of 8 from three-pointers, and 5 of 8 from the free throw line. Except for the free-throw shooting rate that fell due to the intense confrontation, the overall shooting rate set a new high in the playoffs. The score of 32 points in a game is also second only to Zuo Li, creating a new high in the playoffs since the last three seasons.

Garnett played for 44 minutes, and although only 12 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks were recorded, he was inside Shaquille O'Neal and O'Neal Jr. had limited playing time. Jeff Green supported the Celtics' entire inside defense when he couldn't stand up. , a variety of large-scale sweeping defense and defense, so that many people have the illusion that the wolf king dreams of returning to the peak.

It's just a pity that in the last few minutes it wasn't that the Wolf King didn't want to play, but that his knees had not allowed him to play again. Otherwise, he would have played almost 48 minutes like Pierce.

The last of the Big Three, Ray Allen, also tried his best, scoring 6 three-pointers, 22 points and 5 assists, and the running distance was the highest in the game, making people forget that he is 37 years old.

As for Rondo's quasi-triple-double of 10 points, 10 assists and 8 rebounds, Curry's man-marking showed the strength of his best defensive team.

Overall, the Celtics really tried their best.

But the Celtics would rather not try their best, because this performance is still not able to win the most hopeless.

But unlike the previous two despair, this time, they really have a chance to win.

Pierce: "If there was a time machine, I would try my best to stop Zuoli."

Garnett: "Maybe I should have fouled, I thought he wasn't going to shoot in that position."

Jeff Green: "It's all my fault that I lost, luck wasn't on our side."

…

It is not difficult to see from the interview of the Celtics that they are still haunted by the ultra-long three-pointer left in the third quarter.

However, judging from the overall performance, Zuo Li deserved to be the MVP of the regular season. He played 41 minutes, made 16 goals in 22 shots, made 2 of 3-pointers, 6 of 8 free throws, and 40 points, 16 rebounds and 7 assists. 5 blocks and 2 steals, only 1 turnover and 2 fouls.

Not only that three-pointer, the Celtics were completely suppressed by Zuo Li.

Of course, the other players of the Knicks are playing mediocrely. If the three-pointer doesn't make it, maybe the Celtics have a chance, but it's just a chance, because apart from the brave left standing, physical fitness is the biggest problem for the Celtics .

Even without the three-pointer left standing, the Knicks would have won the final according to the Celtics' shooting percentage in the last few minutes.

And after this game, 99% of people believe that the Celtics will be swept by the Knicks, and the remaining 1% should be the diehards of the Celtics.

But even the Celtics themselves understand that this season's journey is over.

On May 8, in the fifth game of the Eastern Conference semifinals, Zuo Li led his teammates to give the Green Army veterans a joy.

There is no hot-blooded chasing points in the last game, and there is no passionate confrontation between the stars, because after the last game, the last drop of oil in the fuel tank of the Green Army veterans has been dried.

Jagged blood can’t keep going, and chicken soup can’t always work. Before the game, the Celtics veterans all said they would keep their “life” on the court, but the reality is so cruel, the Knicks didn’t give them any money from the very beginning. Celtics any chance.

In the first quarter of the game, when Zuo Li succeeded in consecutive singles against Jeff Green, when Zuo Li took off offensive rebounds several times above Garnett's head, when Zuo Li rejected Pierce with four blocks in a single quarter, Rondo's breakthrough...

In the second quarter of the game, when the Knicks set off a wave of three-pointers on the outside...

In the third quarter of the game, when Garnett fouled six times, when Ray Allen threw three non-stick...

As a result, the Knicks led by 34 points in three quarters, and the last quarter entered garbage time ahead of schedule.

Watching the entire Knicks team celebrate their victory early on the bench, I wonder if the Celtics veterans next door have the feeling of returning to the past.

Once upon a time, they were omnipotent in the league, and they also forged their own legends.

However, the curtain call of an era must be replaced by a new era.

80 to 120, the Knicks 40 points away victory over the Celtics, the total score of the series 4 to 0, two consecutive rounds of the series to complete the sweep, the first to advance to the Eastern Conference finals!

There, they will wait for the winner of the Heat and the Bulls to challenge.

After the game, the Celtics players and the Knicks players hugged each other. At this time, there was no more confrontation, no more trash talk, and some only had blessings.

From two straight seasons to the seventh game to today's sweep, one era is coming to an end and another is beginning.

Zuo Li and O'Neal embraced.

This series is another masterpiece of Zuo Li's career. Zuo Li, who scored 38 points, 17 rebounds, 6 assists and 6 blocks in this game, is undoubtedly the biggest contributor to this series.

And O'Neal, UU reading average playing time is only 10 minutes, the lowest in the playoffs of his career, averaging 8.4 points and 5.6 rebounds is also the lowest in his career.

[In other words, currently the best app for reading and listening to books, Yeguo Reading, install the latest version. 】

I have to admit that O'Neal is no longer the big shark he used to be in the playoffs.

And this hug is like inheritance. Zuo Li has bypassed Howard and other centers, and took over the torch representing the new era super center from O'Neal.

"Congratulations, kid, incredible showdown, keep going." O'Neal was full of emotion. From Zuo Li, he saw who he used to be.

No, maybe Zuo Li did better. After all, when he was as old as Zuo Li, he was still being educated by Olajuwon.

"Enjoy your vacation, Ao Fat, maybe we can train together in the offseason." Zuo Li patted O'Neal on the shoulder, Zuo Li, who is familiar with history, knew that this might be the last season of O'Neal's career.
