Grab Curry at the start

Chapter 504 Eastern Champion
The Eagles did not surrender, they went all out to bite the score.

Originally, it was necessary to use the fastest speed to gain the advantage at home, but the plan is not as good as the change. It is not bad that the Eagles can now keep up with the Knicks.

The Eagles also tried a small lineup ruthlessly, and did not challenge Gobert inside at all. All five players pulled to the outside to shoot.

However, even so, their three-point shooting percentage cannot be improved.

Without him, the team coached by Zhang Sixin will always be the best team in defending three-pointers.

The Hawks' three-point shooter, Kyle Korver, has a better shooting percentage than Curry in the regular season, but facing the Knicks, he has no chance to make a phone call at all. The only function of standing on the court is to attract the Knicks' defensive attention. After all, his defensive end has a negative effect.

This is the Knicks. No matter how accurate the shot is, he can't score without the ability to create his own shot.

Fortunately, the Eagles did not fall behind much in the first half, and they still had a chance.

It's just that they originally planned to give the Knicks some color, but now they have become a passive side.

At halftime, the Hawks' players and coaches had mixed feelings.

They really want to win, they're trying hard, but they're starting to doubt the possibility now.

"The game is not over yet, this is our home court." The players encouraged each other.

It's just that when everyone cheers up, there will always be some emptiness.

The Knicks are stronger than expected. They didn't feel this way in the regular season. The playoffs are really a completely different dimension. The psychological pressure of the Eagles is very high.

In the third quarter, the Eagles' outside line was still locked, and they could only let the inside line out to play.

Millsap performed well. Millsap may be the only player in the Hawks who has a chance to break out. It's just that the Knicks' wings are very strong, and he has been struggling to find opportunities.

It's just that when Millsap came to feel from the outside, the Knicks had already killed the Quartet.

Leonard is unstoppable, and the Eagles' defense is really too hip.

Lowry and Green also performed steadily, and the Knicks' strong offensive and defensive performances expanded their lead.

In fact, in the second half, the Hawks' offense was already good, but their defense could not achieve the same level, so the Knicks seized the opportunity.

In a high-level duel, there must be no shortcomings.

Even if there are shortcomings, they cannot be repeatedly used by opponents.

The Eagles really had no choice but to be restrained by the Knicks.

In the final quarter, the Eagles also tried other methods, and Teague tried his best to rush in.

He did pull off some rounds, but Antetokounmpo and Gobert also gave him big hats.

When a small player rushes in, he can sometimes disrupt the opponent's defensive rhythm, but the Knicks' ability to assist in defense is too strong. No matter who rushes in, the Eagles have to give up most of the time.

At the same time, the Knicks' perimeter gave the Eagles another surprise.

During the rotation period, Curry and Middleton performed again.

Middleton has performed normally, but Curry has really improved a lot.

There is also a relationship with Jokic. Curry can simply shoot from the outside with Teacher Yue, and just hand over the organization part to the fat man who supports the high position.

Even if there are still some problems defensively, he has improved a lot as a three-point shooter than before.

Old Curry was also very happy, and his younger son gradually came out, and he felt very happy.

One son gets a top salary, and one son has successfully come to a big city. I really feel a sense of accomplishment.

Their family has a very good relationship with Zhang Sixin now, and Zhang Sixin is a nobleman of their family.

The performance of the Hawks in the final quarter really seemed to be a crazy brain with no other way. In fact, their style of play had a chance, but the Knicks' ball was running too smoothly.The Hawks did not completely gamble on three-pointers as before, but increased their defensive strength against Leonard while trying to score.

If the Knicks' offense doesn't keep up, the Hawks still have a chance.

It can only be said that the Knicks who cheated are really bullying.

In this way, the Knicks won the match point undefeated again.

After the loss, Hawks coach Budenholzer could only say hard: "I am very proud of the hard work of the players."

Zhang Sixin is normally happy. He said: "The players can play such a wonderful game. I am proud of them. We will continue to win together. This is the meaning of their efforts."

Regardless of the mood of both sides, the fourth battle will come as scheduled.

The Eagles showed their attitude before the game, and they will not give up.

However, the reality is cruel. They were stunned by the Knicks at the beginning.

Their defense against Leonard has once again increased its intensity, and it has also achieved results.

However, Lowry scored consecutively, Antetokounmpo also stole a few, and Gobert also scored.

The Eagles realized that even if they tried their best to lock Leonard, it seemed useless.

They can only feel that they can't just stare at Leonard, but after that Leonard has played superstar performances again and again, they can only change, and then find that their previous judgments are correct, the Knicks are not a team that only relies on one star.

But, what can they do, do they ignore Leonard again?
The truth is, the Hawks' defense just can't handle the Knicks.

And their offense didn't come out, the Knicks completely blocked the three-pointer, and they couldn't hit the inside line. They could only score two points with low efficiency.

This is too difficult for the Eagles, and it's not that they can't score, they still have a few brushes.

That is, the Knicks took the lead at the beginning, and then widened the score gap all the way.

"It's hard to imagine that the Eagles couldn't even play a good game in the Eastern Conference finals. The gap between the two sides is too big."

"The Eagles seemed to be able to wrestle with the Knicks in the regular season, and the record was very close. I didn't expect that they would be a team with two grades in the playoffs."

"It's still not enough without a superstar. The Eagles have no one to stand up at the critical moment."

"If the Bulls make it to the Eastern Conference finals, it might look better. The Eagles are too suspenseful."

The fans were a little upset, and the Eagles were naturally a little bit off.

They don't want to, but they can't help it.

In the first half, the Eagles collapsed a bit. There was already a cliff behind them, and they really couldn't bear the pressure.

They didn't completely collapse in the first half just because the time was up, and they were gone in the third quarter.

On the offensive end, none of them can score; on the defensive end, none of them can defend, and the players are a bit dislocated on the court.So, there was no suspense in the game.

When competing for the Eastern Conference championship, the Knicks can still clock out in three quarters, which is their strength.

After the game, Hawks head coach Budenholzer could only send his blessings, "I would like to congratulate the Knicks and coach Zhang Sixin first of all. The Knicks are a very good team."

Winning the Eastern Conference Championship again, Zhang Sixin said proudly: "Kawhi is a true leader. We are full of fighting spirit and passion. We have the support of the best fans in the world. Every player gives their all. Our journey is far from over."
