    In the first game, the Knicks beat the Pacers by 6 points. They had massacred the Pacers in the regular season the previous season, and they were not polite this time.  The playoff carnage seemed even more tragic.  Hibbert had 2 points and 1 rebound in the first game. He only played 15 minutes and committed 4 fouls. After Zhou Xuan and Bledsoe broke through, he was quickly troubled by foul trouble and guarded the water cooler.  The team was too far behind and he didn't play in the second half.  Chinese fans laughed and said that the nickname "Gao Yuanyuan" was well deserved.  In the past, there were news saying that "the Lakers want to introduce the defensive hero Hibbert", "the Cavaliers have a soft spot for Hibbert", "Black Tower may join the Bucks", etc Now there are no teams interested in Hibbert.  interested.  Hibbert has height, but he is a super softie. His shooting percentage has been only 45 in several seasons and only 4[0 this season.  The Pacers showed no improvement in the next three games. As expected, the Knicks swept the first round and advanced.  In the second round, the Knicks met the Nets and swept them again.  The Russian boss also found that Monroe is indeed not suitable to partner with Lopez, both of them are very slow.  Monroe is relatively quick if he plays center, while Lopez is also slow as a center.  The way they lost was very similar to the Jazz back then.  The offense is good, but it's a pity that the Knicks' offense is stronger and they can't defend it inside.  Deron is afraid of Zhou Xuan and Bledsoe's double-back fast break.  The Nets can beat slow teams, but they are no match for run-and-gun teams.  The Cavaliers successfully broke out and swept the first two rounds. After all, there are many stars and their strength is guaranteed.  At this time, the league announced some important awards for the regular season.  Zhou Xuan finally lost the regular season MP award after five consecutive championships. This award was awarded to James. He has high personal efficiency and is second in the league in record. However, it seems more like a consolation prize. James has not received it after playing for so many years.  champion.  When James delivered his speech, he didn't pull him as hard as the previous two times.  He said: "The most important thing now is to beat the Knicks. Only by winning can I be worthy of this trophy." The most improved player was obtained by Randall of the Lakers. His data has improved significantly compared with last season, mainly stars.  Picked it up after the game.  The Sixth Man of the Year is Dion Waiters of the Trail Blazers.  He averaged 17.6 points and 44 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 45.0 and a three-point shooting percentage of 37.0.  People say he is Little Wade, and his style is indeed a bit like Wade's, with extremely sharp breakthroughs.  If it weren¡¯t for Waiters and Thompson, the Blazers wouldn¡¯t have the pain to send Aldridge away.  It's a pity that the overall strength is poor and they failed to reach the playoffs.  D'Antoni won the best coach, and he has won a lot of honors. Many people always think that he is seriously overrated, just like Phil Jackson.  The old German has won many championships, but he has the best stars.  Before the arrival of Zhou Xuan, Woodson, and Malone, the Knicks' garbage defense also left a deep impression on people. This award should be awarded to the entire coaching staff.  The best manager was won by Chris Mullin. The Knicks have been very successful in reinforcing this season. Gay played better than Parsons.  Zhou Xuan was selected for both the best team and the best defensive team, one for the first team and one for the second team. Personal honors were once again harvested.  The defensive team is Rondo.  After arriving in Dallas, Rondo didn't score much, but he was very active in rebounding and defense.  In the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Cavaliers defeated the Knicks in an upset.  There are times when James feels good on three-point shooting, and he made 7 of 11 shots in this game. Once he gets winded, it will be difficult to guard him, and he can score high points without breaking through.  The Knicks did not double-team him, and as a result, he scored 45 points, 7 rebounds, B assists and steals, a near-triple double.  Zhou Xuan performed poorly, with 2 points, 13 assists and 2 steals.  For him, 2fl0 is considered poor performance.  After this game, the Cavaliers players all saw hope.  James said: "We are confident to win the championship. We have outstanding players, good coaches, and a perfect offensive and defensive system. It's time to make substitutions and win." Zhou Xuan is also very confident.  He said: "The Cavaliers played a very long time. It's not a big deal to win a game by chance. James hits a lot of three-pointers. You don't see that many times in a season, right? I don't believe he can still be so good. If he  If we continue to use this style of play, we may win easily. "The reporter asked: "What adjustments will you make?" "I will attack first, attracting double teams and then assisting teammates.  Zhou Xuan rarely practices anymore. In order to not lose the second game, he specially practiced mid-range shots and three-pointers. He imagined what he might encounter when playing against the Cavaliers, and tried his best to shoot from the baseline and 6-degree fadeaway jumpers.  D¡¯Antoni actively cooperated with him and arranged a double pick-and-roll.  In the second game, the Knicks made changes in their starting lineup.  Zhou Xuan, Leonard, Carter, Anderson, Bosh.  Jefferson and Gay entered the substitute lineup, preparing to increase the offensive power in the second quarter.  This is a targeted adjustment. Carter and Anderson's three-pointers are more accurate. The Cavaliers like to start Martin. The defense at the second position does not require tall players, as long as they can keep up with Yu.?That¡¯s it.  Martin spent most of his time as a fixed-point shooter without the ball. He also declined sharply, averaging only 13.2 points per game. Carter's defense was adequate.  Zhou Xuan exploded at the beginning.  The three men stretched out from the three-point line, and Bosh and Zhou Xuan cooperated in pick-and-roll.  In the first attack, he made a sudden stop and made a jump shot. Love came out slowly The Cavaliers attacked, James faced Leonard, and there was no ball cover from the side.  Without Jefferson, the Knicks have stronger defense on the perimeter and rotate very quickly.  James could pass to Love to attack Bosh in the low post, but he didn't do that. He passed to the outside or singled out himself.  The Knicks are still on one-on-one defense, and James still wants to show off his power from outside the three-point line. Today, it is not allowed. Leonard interfered very timely.  James hit a three-pointer.  Bosh grabbed the rebound.  The Knicks attacked and used a pick-and-roll in the middle. After the mismatch, Aldridge defended.  Zhou Xuan suddenly pulled away from the right, and his opponent had no one to double-team.  Zhou Xuan played a mismatched single, dribbling from his crotch to his right hand and breaking through the baseline. Adelaide followed up, and Zhou Xuan quickly took a long stride to the middle, turned around and shot a fadeaway jumper.  At 6 degrees, he leaned back to avoid the block. Adelaide's interference was ineffective and the ball went hollow into the net.  Park.  After James picks and rolls, he attracts Bosh to defend and pass to Ade.  Ade also had a hard time facing Leonard, so he chose to support and pass to Irving. If the latter attracted Leonard's defense at this time and then passed back to the center, it would be a good opportunity.  But Irving's passing awareness is average, and James has used his brain less on passing the ball since he arrived.  He broke through the tie bar and missed the layup. Not only did he miss, but he also caused a mismatch.  Anderson picked up the rebound and threw it forward.  Zhou Xuan received the ball and quickly advanced to the frontcourt. Adelaide retreated relatively far back, and Irving failed to guard against coming back. Zhou Xuan glanced at Carter from the left who was following up in the middle and did not pass the ball. He made a 6-point three-pointer from the left.  Ade was attracted by Carter and retreated inside. Martin was a little slower to defend Zhou Xuan.  The ball went in Love asked for the ball in the low post, but Bosh turned around and missed the shot despite being disturbed. Carter retreated and got the rebound.  In the Knicks' position battle, Zhou Xuan and Bosh played a pick-and-roll. After getting rid of Irving, he used a "worship" fake move to break through when facing Love, and hit the board to score before James' defense.  James reached the basket but did not jump The Knicks beat the Cavaliers as soon as the game started. Some Chinese fans watching the CCTV6 live broadcast laughed and said that James brought Harden's skill package by mistake and could no longer defend.  Zhou Xuan kept his word and kept attacking Love in misplaced positions.  From the side, Carter relied on Anderson's screen to get rid of Martin. Love changed defense a little slower. Zhou Xuan broke through and passed the ball. Carter broke through in the middle and scored with a one-handed dunk.  Judging from his physical fitness, Carter can still play for at least two more years.  Even Aldridge's defense change could not stop Zhou Xuan. Before the game, he studied the players' speed and some defensive habits.  Ade is not particularly good at defensive breakthroughs. He is good at disturbing shots. When he was with the Trail Blazers, he mainly played zone defense. He rarely defended out of the penalty area, and his defensive range was not as wide as Bosh.  So Bosh's defense is now affirmed and he was selected to the All-Defensive Second Team. Ade's defense has never been mentioned.  Zhou Xuan relies on his breakthrough to get a little distance and shoots a fadeaway jumper, all while turning around and leaning back.  This move reminds me of Kobe Bryant.  Zhou Xuan rarely does it, but it is also very smooth.  The reason why he doesn't do this is not because he doesn't know how to do it, but because it consumes physical energy.  And he usually wants to assist mainly and doesn't want his teammates to watch.  "Only Kobe can shoot a fadeaway jumper. This statement is bullshit. An NH-level guard can shoot a fadeaway jumper, but his shooting rate may not be high.  In order to prevent Zhou Xuan from shooting closer, Ade caught up with Zhou Xuan, turned around or "bowed to Buddha", and successfully broke through.  He observed his opponent's footsteps and knew exactly where he had the chance of a breakthrough.  Adelaide was treated badly.  Zhou Xuan scored 2 points and 2 assists in a single quarter.  In the last attack, he did not rely on the pick-and-roll, singled out Irving, and hit a 6-degree jumper.  The Knicks lead 3-2 by 13 points.  Zhou Xuan took a break in the first half of the second quarter, and the two teams were in a stalemate.  In the second half, he came on the court and started to attack again.  When he failed to break through, he separated from the outside and relied on two inside screens to run back and get the ball. He took one step from the three-point line and turned around to shoot. He hit two difficult three-pointers in this quarter.  This kind of ball must feel very good. Only Zhou Xuan and Curry can guarantee the hit rate.  In order to strengthen defense, the Cavaliers replaced Love and replaced Marion with small-ball tactics. James guest-starred at the 4th position to defend against Zhou Xuan's breakthrough.  Zhou Xuan took advantage of the weakness of the Cavaliers' two outside defenders and began to pass the ball to his teammates for misplaced shots.  Mo Williams can't defend well, and the Cavaliers lack a good defender at position 2.  Wallace can play the 4th position, but the 2nd position can't keep up with the speed, and those who can keep up with the speed don't have the height.  Bosh and Gay turned away.  Gay's Yuba jump shot is as difficult to guard as Tracy McGrady, and the shooting point is very high. Neither Irving nor Williams can block his shot.  On the other hand, the Cavaliers' offense was very chaotic and their shooting percentage dropped.  The Knicks led 6-3 by 2 points at halftime. Zhou Xuan scored 33 points and 6 assists at halftime.  During the halftime break, the Cavaliers coaching staff was eager to study tactics. They had to find ways to defend.  Blatt also had no idea. He didn't even know whether to let Love play.  As long as Love is on the court, the opponent will definitely have a way to score.
