James is indeed a guy with outstanding golf intelligence. He suddenly saw the weak link of the Knicks, and he stopped playing with the ball, and sent the ball to Love again and again.
happiness!
Love seemed to be rejuvenated, and he scored consecutive points, directly beating Seraphim to the ground.
In the second half of the third quarter, Jiang Muqian hit two three-pointers, which was equivalent to dragging the Knicks forward with his own strength.
Because Anthony has had no choice but to carry 5 fouls.
In the 4th minute of the fourth quarter, as Jiang Mu made another mid-range shot, the Knicks managed to catch up to 85:91 with only 6 points behind.
But then Irving and James hit consecutive three-pointers, and the score was stretched to 12 points in an instant.
Anthony had no choice but to play again.
Although Anthony also hit the basket after playing, the Cavaliers' operation has become smoother.
Jiang Mu faltered under the defense of the Cavaliers JR-Smith, Maurice Williams, Dellavedova and others.
In particular, Anthony's foul made the Knicks, who were already poor on the offensive end, even worse. Jiang Mu not only had to connect the teams, but also restricted the opponent on the defensive end, and provided his most stable offensive firepower.
The exhausted Jiang Mu watched the time slowly passing by on the big screen, and the more anxious he was, the more he missed two shots in a row.
One goal was a helpless three-pointer at the end of 24 seconds, and the other goal was James' nail plate cap after breaking through Irving.
The helpless Jiang Mu could only raise his breath again and run without the ball.
At least this will give more opportunities to shoot three-pointers.
Although Jiang Mu made two more three-pointers in the last few minutes, they only narrowed the point difference and forced the Cavaliers to call a timeout.
After the timeout, the Cavaliers' perimeter defense expanded. Jiang Mu had no choice but to take advantage of the defender's unsteady position to attack the inside line frequently after catching the ball. Apart from winning some free throws, the point difference was still more than ten points open.
With Anthony being fouled off, the Knicks completely lost hope of a comeback.
The Cavaliers beat the Knicks 109-95 on their home court to temporarily take the lead on the stage of the Eastern Conference Finals.
Jiang Mu still politely stepped forward to hug James, Owen and others, but many people could see the depression in Jiang Mu's heart.
Before the post-match interview, Jiang Mu tried his best to adjust his mentality. He knew the difficulty of this round of the Eastern Conference finals. Although he had prepared mentally in advance, Jiang Mu still couldn't let go.
During the post-match interview, Jiang Mu didn't say anything bold.
"I didn't play well! The big responsibility for the loss of this game lies with me. The team's offense encountered some problems. I took 23 shots, but only hit 10 goals. The score of 33 points was not mine. Purpose, my purpose is to win! But I failed!"
"There is no doubt that the Cavaliers are strong. They are a group of mature and intelligent players. We are young and we still have a long way to go."
"Yes, I once said that no team can beat us twice in a row, so we will win the next game!"
"SLAM Slam" still praised Jiang Mu.
"He is just a teenager under 20 years old, but he has a huge responsibility for the team. The Knicks this season have been amazing. They have been struggling along the way, but they have been improving. China Jiang is still The team's most trustworthy player, the matchup with Kyrie Irving did not fall behind at all, but the Knicks, who were stuck in the foul quagmire, couldn't get out, so they lost a game temporarily, but there are still opportunities, looking forward to China Jiang and the Knicks The team played an exciting game!"
After the defeat, Jiang Mu went home early and slept.
The next day, I went to the training hall early to practice dribbling and shooting.
On May 5, the NBA officially announced the list of the best NBA teams for the 18-2015 season.
Best Team Third Team: Andre Drummond, Paul George, LaMarcus Aldridge, Klay Thompson, Chris Paul.
Best Team Second Team: DeMarcus Cousins, Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, Damian Lillard, Jiang Mu.
All-NBA First Team: DeAndre Jordan, LeBron James, Kawhi Leonard, Stephen Curry, Russell Westbrook.
Jiang Mu also knew very well in his heart that he would definitely be a member of the best team.
Jiang Mu's statistics for the whole season are very good, and the Knicks also finished the regular season with the second place in the East. As the core of the team, Jiang Mu must not be able to make a reservation if he does not book a spot.
However, when the best team is announced every year, it will inevitably cause heated discussions. It is not surprising that this kind of thing is really common.
There was little controversy about Jiang Mu being selected for the second team of the best team, but some thought that Jiang Mu should be selected for the first team.
Curry in the first team is absolutely impossible to be squeezed out, and there is only Westbrook left on the back line.
Westbrook averaged 23.5 points and 10.4 assists per game in the regular season, which were lower than Jiang Mu's 26.2 points and 11.4 assists, but Westbrook averaged 7.8 rebounds per game, but ahead of Jiang Mu's 3.6 times. The reason why Springbrook became the first team of the All-NBA team.
The Knicks and the Thunder have similar records, but the Knicks still have an advantage in the rankings. After all, the second in the Eastern Conference and the fourth in the Western Conference sound like a bit of a gap.
Jiang Mu didn't care about these, because the best team as a hard honor would definitely bring rewards.
"Pfft! Congratulations to Jiang Mu, the host of the paranoid system of the ball god, for being selected to the second team of the NBA 2015-2016 season. All the white badges in the reward skill badges have been upgraded to green!"
Fast Healing (Green): Activated after the host is injured, the healing speed is increased by 60% compared to the normal speed, and there is no sequelae after the injury is cured.
Imitation Copy (Green): The host can activate the badge function and imitate other people's technical actions, with a similarity of 100% in form and 80% in spirit.
The improvement of these two items did not seem to have significantly improved Jiang Mu's strength, but Jiang Mu was also very content.
Because these two skill badges can play an inestimable role at a specific time.
Especially fast healing, no one knows when the professional player's injury will come, and the faster healing speed will undoubtedly make Jiang Mu more advantageous.
On May 5, G18 of the Western Conference Finals between the Golden State Warriors and the Oklahoma City Thunder was officially staged.
In order to improve themselves, the Knicks convened players to watch the live broadcast of the game in the viewing room.
The Cavaliers need to watch even more, because the Cavaliers have already put the research on the next opponent on the agenda after winning one game first.
In fact, the Cavaliers have been studying the strong teams in the league since the beginning of this season, because every team is theoretically likely to become the opponent of the Cavaliers in the Finals.
In other words, the Cavaliers didn't think they'd be left out of the title race in the first place.
