The genius of the basketball madman is on the left

"One man overturned the Magic! Zuo Li led a 16-point comeback!" - Sina Sports.

"The real king of the last quarter! Zuo Li never gives up!" -TNT.

"Who understands the despair of the Magic? Even if two players are sent off, they can't win. Where is the Magic going?" -ESPN.

"The pinnacle of personal ability, the new singles king of the league is born!" - New York Sports News.

"Referees Trying Their Best?" - New York Times.

……

Immediately after the game, media from all over the world, whether authoritative media or the king of hype, made extensive reports on the game.

Just one day later, the man who just swept the headlines because of the quadruple double and the MVP of the regular season once again occupied the pages of major media.

With only 14 points in the half, the audience still scored 45 points, 16 rebounds, 6 assists and 5 blocks. In the final quarter, the dedication was enough to make the YouTube explode. It is no wonder that every ball can be included in the highlight singles performance After the game, Zuo Li still received a lot of applause in the away game, obviously the culprit of the team's loss.

No one who really likes basketball can refuse Zuo Li's performance.

Really too strong!

Magic has been numb.

The moment the game ended, Howard, who had 15 points, 11 rebounds, 3 blocks, 5 fouls and 5 turnovers, was lying on the floor. He calmed down and found that he had messed up everything. If he hadn’t been calm at the last moment, maybe they still had Opportunity, but he kept the team from even reaching the lore moment.

Vince Carter, who scored 22 points tonight, looked a little confused. He came to hold his thighs. Who knew that he had become the thickest thighs in these few games. Nelson turned his jersey over to cover his head. I don't know how to accept this loss, this is 16 points...

Da Fan wanted to comfort his teammates, but he didn't know where to start... They got almost all the favorable conditions in this game, the referee favored them, leading in three quarters, and the momentum was like a rainbow, but they lost, he don't know how to win...

After the game whistle sounded, all the Knicks rushed back to the locker room frantically. Randolph, who was sent off, was finally released. He stood at the door and gave Zuo Li a bear hug. Stephen Curry limped on the stool Bundi, the whole thing is a group of demons dancing wildly.

Zuo Li's good talk made everyone give up the idea of ​​going to the nightclub to dance disco.

Excitement is possible and should be, and opening champagne at halftime is absolutely unacceptable.

Although there was no example of a 0-3 reversal before this, and Zuo Li had never heard of it before, but this thing is not afraid of 1, just in case, and there was no such thing as 3-[-] in the finals. The result?

To respect metaphysics is to respect yourself!

Zuo Li didn't want to be remembered by people because of this, so it's better to be steady.

But D'Antoni is still sympathetic to everyone. Although it's not good outside, he still asked the staff to return to the hotel and have a small celebration in the hotel. It's a combination of work and rest. What's more, this game is indeed worth celebrating. After all, this is the Knicks. It was the first time in the second playoffs to overturn the game. From the process to the result, it is of great significance to the Knicks' next games.

Of course, before going back to celebrate, they did not forget to praise Zuo Liyi in front of the media.

"Besides Zuo Li, who else could it be?" Curry asked.

"He saved me, I know I screwed up, but, okay, we have lefty." Randolph.

"We will complain about the flagrant foul. Randolph didn't do it on purpose, it wasn't a hurtful move, and his end made us passive. Fortunately, we still have Zuo Li. He can do anything. I Always say that," D'Antoni.

……

Of course, those words are not all flattery, after all, no one would have thought of a 3-0 lead before the start of this round of the series.

Perhaps before the start of the semifinals, fans of the Knicks imagined that this Knicks team could go to the Eastern Conference Finals. After all, they are the number one in the league and defeated the Magic last season.

1-0得时候他们觉得球队实力不错，绝对可以一战；2-0得时候觉得主场优势把握住了非常漂亮之后会有很高容错也会有更大机会；而3-0之后，球迷们已经疯了……

"I'm already studying the opponents in the Eastern Conference Finals." Spike Lee posted his hand-painted tickets to the Eastern Conference Finals, emphasizing his confidence.

Magic fans are pissed off, but there's nothing they can do about it, because even the most confident fan has lost confidence right now.

Before this, the best record after falling behind 0-3 was 3-4, and the wish of Magic fans now is whether the team can win a game.

From self-confidence to humbleness, sometimes it's only three games away.

……

The Magic still let their fans get what they wanted.

On May 5, G9 of the Eastern Conference semifinals continued at the Magic home court.

Before the game, the Magic held the most grand opening since the series, and they also invited many people from the sidelines to cheer for the former Magic legends.

I knew that the famous magician and the magic falling out are famous, and it is not easy to find seven or eight famous people who are still a bit famous.

And the Magic played very crazily as soon as they came up, basically running at all costs to fill their positions. Howard also started to do dirty work, filling positions, grabbing rebounds, and pick-and-rolls. Although he didn't score much, he was indeed more like a player. Qualified leader.

This kind of desperate play is also effective. After all, the Knicks are not crazy about the main force. Zuo Li played 7 minutes in the first quarter, 6 and a half minutes in the second quarter, and 8 minutes in the third quarter. The quarter played for 11 minutes.The playing time of other main players and Zuo Li is not much different.

But Magic, Howard, Carter played 48 minutes, Nelson 46 and a half minutes, Lewis 44 minutes...

Really desperate.

At the last moment, it was Carter's tip-up that sealed the victory.

98-94，魔术4分优势战胜尼克斯，将大比分板成1-3。

After the game, Carter, who hit a key goal and scored 29 points, said to reporters: "We haven't given up yet! We can still win, and we have found a way!"

And Howard, who scored 14 points and 18 rebounds, also said: "This will be the beginning of the Magic finding a rhythm!"

However, those who are knowledgeable know that this is already a flashback of magic, and it is really difficult to fight back the magic that has consumed almost all of its strength.

Some people might say, wouldn't it be over if we hit this early?

However, the fact is that with the way this game is played, one game is okay, but two or three games are simply unbearable. The five main players play more than 44 minutes in each game. In such an intensity game, there are only two results: injury or loss of strength.

Although the Knicks fought until the last moment, they didn't mean to be a stud. The main force played normally and did not force more.

This back and forth, plus the end is the Knicks' home game...

"We will not come back again." After the game, Zuo Li, who had 27 points, 14 rebounds and 8 assists in this game, did not continue to entertain reporters, and said directly: "We will end this round of the series in the next game!"
