Grab Curry at the start

Chapter 500 It's Easy Again
"Coach, I will help the team try to beat you," Milicic said.

Zhang Sixin responded with a smile: "Then, go on."

Even though two years have passed, Milicic is still used to calling Zhang Sixin by the coach.

His impact on some players will be profound.

There is no doubt that the Wizards, the opponents in the Eastern Conference semifinals, are much more difficult to deal with than the Nets.

Wall and Bill are the rising stars in the East, and the presence of Milicic can allow the Wizards to attack with confidence on the outside.However, it will still be very difficult for them to beat the Knicks.

At the beginning of the game, before Wall and Bill got up, Leonard was already beating Pierce.Pierce, who is almost 38 years old, really can't stop the strong Leonard.

And Otto Porter on their bench was a little tender and couldn't stand it.

The Wizards' choice is to be the next insider, and Nene is not allowed to play, and they will directly attack with one big and four small ones.

To be honest, the Wizards are not a very strong offensive team.

But they have no choice now, the Knicks keep scoring short, but it is difficult for them to break through the Knicks' defense.

Whether it is outside or inside, the Knicks defend very well.

Therefore, the Wizards can only directly use the main force while the Knicks have not gone all out.

During the rotation period, Bill finally started to score more strongly.

Bill is more aggressive than Wall, who is always thinking about assists.

In the playoffs, he has replaced Wall as the Wizards' first scoring point.

And Bill's shooting is obviously better than Wall's, and he is more difficult to limit.

It's just that he can't connect the teams like Wall, and the two have their own strengths.

Originally, if it weren't for injuries in history, they would have had the opportunity to spoil the situation in the East.

The Wizards also have good players on the bench, but as long as Milicic goes down, their defensive strength will drop significantly, and as long as the two shots don't score, their offensive end will also fall into confusion.

The Wizards are good, but they are still a bit far from a strong team.

Otherwise, their regular season record should be better.

In the first half, the Knicks blossomed more under the leadership of Leonard. After taking the lead, they did not let the opponent catch up.

In the third quarter, the Wizards worked hard on defense, and Milicic also sent a block.

The two sides began to grind and fight, it depends on who can stand it first.

To be honest, Zhang Sixin also felt that the Wizards adjusted well in the third quarter, except that they were still struggling to chase points.

Anti-Wizards is to block a few of their outside points.

The Knicks are not afraid of the opponent's breakthrough, they can help defend inside at any time.

The Knicks start with five players, all of whom can help each other defend, that's how powerful it is.

That is to say, the three-pointer is not so stable, otherwise Zhang Sixin would be shaking directly.

At the end of the quarter, the Wizards were Wall, Bill and Pierce taking turns.

But under the Knicks' defense, none of the three of them was efficient.

Of course, the Knicks' own offensive efficiency is also very average, but they are in the lead.

In this way, they made it to the end and won the game.

"The Wizards really have no choice, they can't get in at all."

"To be honest, Milicic's offensive ability is still a bit weak. Gobert is so thin, he can play a few more."

"They're not teams of the same level. The Knicks are at least two levels higher than the Wizards."

"The Eastern Conference semifinals are still two grades higher, so how many grades is the Knicks higher than the opponent in the first round? The gap between the Eastern Conference teams is really too big."

"Hehe, there is a big gap in the East? Zhang Sixin also swept all kinds of things when he led the team in the West. Is it difficult to admit that others are good?"

There was not much suspense in the game, but the fans were noisy and lively.

Now that the Internet is becoming more and more convenient, more and more fans are discussing games in real time.

Watching football is completely different from ten years ago.

After the game, Wizards head coach Whitman also said helplessly: "The away game in the playoffs is especially difficult."

"We will focus more on going forward and strive to play high-quality games."

Zhang Sixin said: "They actually played very well, and we felt the pressure. But this is the playoffs, and we will move forward under pressure."

"Kawhi is doing great, and the playoffs are completely his home."

The second battle between the two sides began soon. The Wizards played more games with one big and four small players, but they did not change their starting lineup, and they still played with two insiders.

It can be seen that the Wizards really worked hard, but they didn't start well.

They tried to flank Leonard, and Antetokounmpo completed a few easy dunks.

As for Green, he quietly hit a three-pointer.

The Knicks have a strong defense, and there are a few players on the offensive end who lack a sense of presence, but occasionally break out.

Like Green, if you focus on marking him, he seems to be able to stay out of the offense for the whole time, but when you start to ignore him, he can always hit a three-pointer.

In fact, the Wizards want to open up the situation inside. Compared with Milicic, they think Nene can try to play Antetokounmpo.

Antetokounmpo is much stronger than last season, but he has not reached the peak level and looks a little thin.

Nene is an authentic inside line, and it stands to reason that it is feasible to swing the front line like Antetokounmpo.

However, after trying several times, Nene really couldn't fight.

Therefore, starting from the rotation period, the Wizards began to attack the outside line again.

Just like the routine in the game, the score trend is also a bit similar.

In the first half, the Knicks took the lead again, and the Wizards couldn't figure out how to gain an advantage.

In the third quarter, they let go of the game completely, just to let Wall and Bill increase their shots.

In fact, there are still some effects. Although they are not strong enough, they still have the level of an All-Star.

However, this time their defense did not keep up, and the Knicks suddenly rained three-pointers.

Both Lowry and Leonard made hits, and Middleton also made two hits after he came on the court. The Wizards suddenly lost hope.

They are very anxious, but the more anxious they are, the less they can score.

The Bills' shooting percentages were all below [-]%. Although they didn't give up, the Knicks always had a double-digit lead at the end of the quarter, and the suspense of the game disappeared early.

The Knicks won two more home games easily, and their strength in the playoffs makes people feel familiar.

Pierce said heartbroken, "They are a great team, you can't underestimate them. When you play against them, you can't make so many mistakes. But we keep making mistakes, and we can't make shots when we have the opportunity to shoot."

In fact, they are not underestimating, but there is no way.

They can't score inside, and the outside is severely restricted, so what should they do.

The Wizards can only look forward to changes at home. The good news is that they are different from the Nets, at least they have their own real territory.
