Rebirth of Yidi Legend

Chapter 663

After this ESPN article, the NBA Finals of the 2011~2012 season was also staged as scheduled under much attention. Needless to say, this game is naturally long-awaited.

"Yi, the finals have officially started, how do you feel now!"

"I am very looking forward to today's arrival, because we have been resting for too long. Fortunately, a round of series only needs to play 7 games. Otherwise, I think I will wait longer!"

"Do you think you guys can win the first game?"

"Of course, there is nothing to ask about this. This is our home stadium. Of course we will win, and we will definitely win!"

……

"Kevin, this is your first trip to the finals, how are you feeling now?"

"To be honest, although this is our first trip to the finals, I have played against Yi not once or twice, but this is indeed the first time we met on the stage of the finals. For today's game I have been looking forward to the game, and now that my dream has come true, I naturally hope that I can win the game today, after all, it is our turn to win!"

"Are you going to win the game tonight?"

"Of course, we will definitely win!"

"Then do you know? In the NBA finals for so many years, 7% of the teams that won the first game won the final championship. Do you think you can win the championship? Can I understand that?"

"Of course, the current Thunder team has entered the finals. If entering the championship is not looking towards the championship, then why did we fight to this point!"

The probability of winning the first game of the finals is as high as 70.00%, which is why returning to the first game of the finals is so important.

Because there is a saying called to seize the opportunity, this becomes more and more important on more and more important occasions. In many NBA finals, the importance of the first game of the finals is actually highlighted.

Of course, this law is also divided into applicable and non-applicable.

For example, the original LeBron James, he does not apply this law at all. His three championships, 2012, 2013, and 2016, were all reversed and won after losing the first game.In the series that won the first game of the 2011 finals, they lost the championship in the end.
Another example is the original Kobe, he is very applicable to this law.

Kobe has entered the finals 7 times in his career. In 2000, the Lakers won the first game and finally won the championship. In 2001, the Lakers finally won the championship after losing the first game. In 2002, they swept their opponents. In 2004, he won the first battle and finally won the championship.Kobe's 2008 finals experience, except for being won by Iverson in 2009, all of them follow this law.

And the reason why they won in 2001 is that the strength of the Lakers is obviously much higher than that of the 76ers, and the 76ers at that time were playing with a lot of energy, and it was this energy that allowed them to win the game in the end. After winning the game, the momentum went to the Lakers. The overall strength of the Lakers did not allow them not to win the championship. The same is true. They dare not underestimate the 76ers in the next round. There is indeed a big gap!Therefore, winning the championship is also expected.

From Kobe and LeBron, it can be seen that this law does not apply to every player, nor does it apply to any finals.

Because the NBA is a place where miracles are born!

But such a probability can always give people a psychological advantage. After all, 7% of the teams won the finals after winning the first game. This is not a normal ratio. Make some impact!

That's why there was such a big commotion before the game started!
In the eyes of many people, the outcome of the finals is actually determined by this game!

After all, even if you can't directly know the final result, you can still see the gap between the two teams in this game and whether they can form a balance of power.

These can still be seen in the game!
……

Soon, the warm-up time before the game came, and the Thunder players entered the Knicks' home court along the away channel. When they just stepped into the arena, the entire bustling arena suddenly booed loudly. Facing these boos, the Thunder players were a little dazed for a moment.

The booing in the playoffs is different from the regular season, because there may be some spectators who just watch the game in the regular season, and they may not be fans of the home team, but those who can get tickets in the playoffs, Basically, they are the most loyal viewers, and the finals are another level. Those who can watch the game in the finals, 90.00% of them are diehard fans!
As for the booing of the opponent by the die-hard fans, then I did my best!
That's why the Thunder guys were a little dazed, because boos of this level and scale were rarely experienced by them.

Not to mention that this is New York, which is a group of extreme fans. More importantly, the current New York team is in full swing, which is a fatal addition to this group of fans!
There is also the mutual ridicule that has always existed before the start of the game. At this moment, the New York fans naturally treat the Thunder as a thorn in their side. The degree of hostility can be seen from here!

Of course, for the Thunder to get to where they are today, a lot of things have already been experienced, so they quickly put themselves into their warm-up.

Soon, the entrance ceremony of the Knicks' home players came, but the Thunder players did not sit back on the bench quietly, especially Kevin Durant was still facing the basket and shooting.

He's so focused, the way he looks, all he has in his eyes and in his mind is the basket!
"Guys, in the last round of the series, I have nothing to say. The moment of making history is just around the corner. Let everyone remember us!" D'Antoni mobilized before the game. He didn't say much, just now In the locker room, he had already emphasized a lot of anger, and if he said too much about things like cheering up, it would actually have a negative impact, so he didn't say anything more!
"Guys, we have made history. However, we still have an opponent to solve. The New York Knicks are the defending champions. I don't need you to win the championship. But if they want to defend their title, they have to ask if we agree. Agree, we can't let them get to the finals so easily, of course, if their ability is not enough, I don't mind if we win the championship trophy, guys, gogogo!"

"beep!"

After the head coaches on both sides made the final arrangements, the buzzer on the scene also sounded. This was the buzzer that represented the start of the game. At the same time as the buzzer sounded, the current commentator, the players off the field, and The audience on the sidelines and in front of the TV all concentrated in an instant!

The battle is imminent, and the first battle of the finals is finally about to begin!

"Definitely!"

"Definitely!"

"Definitely!"

When the Knicks players suffered from bed sores, the upper limit of the auditorium on the scene was unified with cheers and cheers.

New York fans believe that they will definitely win two consecutive championships!
After the start of the game, the two sides competed fiercely, and the scores on the field increased alternately.

But the first to enter the state is obviously the New York Knicks!
These guys from the Knicks are obviously very well prepared!
Entered the scoring state from the beginning, Yi Jianlian, Dragic and David West scored in turn, and the Knicks led 16-9 by 7 points.

"The Knicks started very hot today, and it's not just Yi alone who is full of offensive firepower, but the entire Knicks team is very fierce. Such a Knicks team is undoubtedly the most difficult to deal with! And the Thunder team From the beginning, it seems that it is not suitable for the offensive rhythm of the Knicks. They are still dealing with the Knicks by confronting the Grizzlies. This is definitely not a good state!"

Kenny Smith frowned when he saw that the point difference came to 7 points so quickly. His expectations for today's game can be quite high!

If the game was won by the Knicks so easily, then today's NBA Finals will be a bit disappointing!

At the same time, the ratings may not be too high!
After all, compared to one-sided competitions, everyone prefers to watch intense competitions. Otherwise, the ratings of the original Qiyong battle would not be worse every year!

The reason is also very simple, because the strength of the Cavaliers is obviously not as good as that of the Warriors!
However, just after Kenny Smith finished speaking, Westbrook immediately returned a three-pointer and pulled the point difference back!
But just when everyone thought the Thunder were going to start a counterattack, the Knicks played a 9-2 attack wave, and they stretched the advantage to 11 points.

And at this time, only about 7 minutes had passed in the first quarter!
"Hey, the gap is too big! It's really worth watching!"

"I think the Thunder fans should be the most embarrassing now. They brag about their own team for a long time, but the Knicks haven't tried their best yet! They have already got a double-digit point difference!"

"Isn't the gap too big? After all, the Thunder has created huge problems for the Thunder in the regular season, but what's going on now? The Thunder can't stand the New York Knicks' offensive at all." The gap between these two teams shouldn’t be so big!”

When seeing this, many fans have already started complaining!

They don't want to see such a game!

"beep!"

Brooks also called a timeout at this time, and he was naturally very dissatisfied.

"The Thunder made a huge mistake, and that's what got them down by so many points before the end of the first quarter. They didn't realize they were facing the New York Knicks. They were facing the Knicks. Against the Grizzlies, at the last moment, the Grizzlies misfired through the restrictions on the defensive end, thus overtaking the score and winning the game. They took this method to the finals to face the Knicks. This is why they The reason for being so passive is that the Knicks are not the Grizzlies, and their offense is very smooth. This is why so many people on the Knicks shot so quickly today. The Thunder’s defense is too much of a chance !"

Kenny Smith continued to analyze the Thunder. In his opinion, the Thunder only need to make some changes on the defensive end, and this game will be very different.

And after they solve the problems on the defensive end, they can play their own style on the offensive end!

The timeout ended soon, and D'Antoni didn't care how the Thunder arranged tactics. He directly put Yi Jianlian on the court to rest. At present, it has reached more than double digits. In his opinion, this is a part of Yi Jianlian's rest. good chance!

And after the rest time, Yi Jianlian can play directly in the second quarter. At that time, the New York team will definitely have the upper hand!

"This is a time bomb directly placed on the head of the Thunder team! If they can't narrow the point difference during this period of time, then everyone knows what will happen next! The pressure on the Thunder team can only be said It's even bigger! Now, let's see what the Thunder guys will do!"

Barkley saw D'Antoni's substitution in his eyes.

In his view, D'Antoni put a time bomb on the Thunder players.

And it will work very well!
After all, Yi Jianlian is the trump card of the New York Knicks and No. 1 in the league. You can imagine what will happen if he has sufficient physical fitness.

The camera at the scene also gave Brooks a shot at the right time. When the latter saw that Yi Jianlian was not on the court, his entire face really sank!
Of course, this reaction is normal. Anyone who is the head coach will not feel at ease when he sees Yi Jianlian resting off the court, and will think of forcing Yi Jianlian out.

It's just that the worse thing for the Thunder is that they haven't figured out how to force Yi Jianlian out. What they should consider now is to recover the score!

In the first quarter, the score difference was 11 points. If this game continues, I'm afraid it will soon enter garbage time!

"Bah!"

The Thunder team's substitution was somewhat effective, and the Thunder team's first attack was completed very smoothly!Kevin Durant made a dunk to stop the gap from widening.

And this dunk obviously encouraged the other players of the Thunder team. They set off a wave of counterattacks and hit several consecutive goals in the next attack. The point difference was suddenly reduced to 5 points!
However, D'Antoni didn't mean to take Yi Jianlian back. He wrapped his hands around his chest and just looked at the court like this. He was not in a hurry for the Knicks to be caught up.

And it's really not that easy for the Thunder to chase points.

Dragic hit a three-pointer at this time, widening the point difference to 7 points again.

His three-pointer is very critical, because at the end of the first quarter, the Knicks only led by 3 points!
Dragic's three-pointer allowed the Knicks to take the lead into the second quarter...
