The next day, this potential "preview of the finals" dominated the front pages of all sports media in the United States.

After getting Gasol, the Lakers were the team with the best record in the same period in the league. Kobe, who got a strong teammate, was really different. This is the consensus reached by fans all over the world.

However, the Eagles in Ke Yan's hands taught the Lakers a lesson. Sefolosha, who was originally judged to be "effectively restricting Kobe", only played 16 minutes and played against Kobe for only 11 minutes. Minutes, the real killer move of the Eagles is precisely the "double point guard" lineup that many people did not expect.

Ke Yan's one-handed operation directly exposed Fisher's slow lateral movement and inability to guard against small guards; Radmanovich's lack of ability to handle the ball and other shortcomings have been exposed, and I believe it will be watched by more strong teams in the West. Arrived and used it against the Lakers.

"To this day, I really feel that the Lakers lost Kimi is a very regrettable thing! He is a very amazing head coach. From any angle to evaluate a coach, he can score high!"

In ESPN's street interviews with fans, some fans wearing Lakers jerseys unscrupulously expressed their nostalgia for Ke Yan.Although Phil Jackson is an out-and-out "famous coach", it is already enviable for the Lakers to invite him as the head coach; but considering that the team chose the former between Phil Jackson and Keyan, the fans still I feel that the team "returns the pearl for the price"!

If the Lakers fans are just dissatisfied, then Ke Yan on the Internet is the "goddess" in the hearts of fans of all teams. Many fans use Ke Yan's "five dimensions" to complain about their head coach; D'Antoni was complained about " Stubborn"; Rivers was complained about "poor on-the-spot response"; Carlisle was "obsessed" with small guards; old Nelson "regarded his head and ignored his back".

That is, Popovich of the Spurs was able to "survive the disaster."

On March 3, the Eagles returned to the East Coast, away to challenge the New York Knicks, whose lineup has undergone drastic changes.

Sending away "Little Shark" Eddie Curry in exchange for "Old Shark" O'Neal, the Knicks are already heading towards the free agent market two years later.The purpose of this deal is to send away Eddie Curry's contract that expires in 11 years.

As for O'Neal, he is good at "playing tricks" and can bring eyeballs to New York, which is a very important element in sports in New York; O'Neal's performance in the Knicks has also improved compared to the Heat, and he can contribute on average A double-double of 15 points and 10 rebounds; especially his partner in the interior with Randolph, the effect was surprisingly good. The two showed a chemical reaction of 1+1>2 on the offensive end. O'Neal's presence relieved Randolph. Randolph's offensive pressure, and Randolph has a certain range, which can also bring some space to O'Neal.

Against the Hawks, the Knicks' offense was also mainly launched through the inside.Marbury had deep grievances with the team and directly refused to play. This also gave Duhon more opportunities to perform. He is a somewhat mediocre player who is willing to share the ball. He resolutely carried out the coach's intention and handed the ball to O'Neal And Randolph, relying on tonnage to suppress Garnett and Anderson.

The two battering hammers took turns to attack the inside. Rao Garnett and Anderson's defensive ability has been counted in the league, and they still can't stand it!

Perhaps, if the Knicks reached a deal with the Heat earlier and made some targeted reinforcements, they might be able to hit the playoffs!

But there are times when, indeed, the clock ticks and the deal comes too late.

The combination of O'Neal and Randolph is quite lethal on the offensive end, but the defensive end is basically "mutual pit", full of flaws.Especially in pick-and-roll defense, the distance from the opponent's ball-handler can fill the entire galaxy!

Not to mention, in this game, the ball holders they have to face are Paul and Joe Johnson, the best backcourt combination in the league who is good at mid-range shooting!The Eagles scored 42 points in the first half, only 4 points less than the Knicks. The Eagles also led the Knicks with a score of 63:46.

At this stage of the season, the Knicks have long lost the chance to compete for the playoffs. Fans come to Madison Square Garden to watch the game, and more to watch the strongest team in the league. They also look forward to the Knicks' day Can play as good basketball as the Hawks.

As for the Knicks' long-term plan, fans only know "James", but not Ke Yan.

It's not that Ke Yan's reputation is not enough, but that no one thinks that the Eagles will let Ke Yan go.

The second half of the game was "smooth", and Ke Yan satisfied Paul's idea of ​​"scrubbing statistics". After replacing Garnett and Joe Johnson, he still let Paul play for 38 minutes.In the whole game, Paul contributed 42 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in a triple-double performance, adding some points to himself.

In the end, the Hawks beat the Knicks 137:108 and continued their winning streak. (52-15)

On March 3, the Eagles challenged the Celtics in back-to-back away games.

In the first three matches of the season, the Eagles won the game. The two sides clashed twice, which can be regarded as taking over the enmity and adding more highlights to the game.

In the last game against the Knicks, the Eagles replaced most of the main players after establishing an early advantage, and their physical disadvantages were not obvious.

逐渐从糟糕状态中走出来的乔约翰逊延续了上一场出色的手感，20投11中，三分球4中3，罚球4中3，得到28分5篮板4助攻。

Garnett also scored 21 points, 13 rebounds and 5 assists in this game. He didn't play for a long time and had plenty of energy.

For the Celtics, O'Neal's state is not as good as before, which "troubled" the team.Last season, Jermaine O'Neal was still a 21+10 All-Star insider. This season, he can basically only contribute 17+9 data.

At the beginning, everyone thought it was a mutual sacrifice between the "Big Three", but the problem was that whether it was a face-up single or a low-post strong attack, O'Neal's lethality was a decline visible to the naked eye; and, with Pierce and Ray With Allen helping to contain the defense, O'Neal's shooting percentage has also dropped to 46% this season.For an insider, it's really not high!

To put it bluntly, in addition to being more efficient on the defensive end, O'Neal's performance is not even as good as Al Jefferson, who the team sent to the Pacers in order to trade him!

O'Neal's steady decline has forced the Celtics to shift their offensive focus to the outside. This is "just right" for the Eagles, which can defend the league's first defensive line. Garnett cooperates with Battier and Sefolosha He played a tough defense, which limited Ray Allen's output and also lowered Pierce's efficiency.

In the end, the Eagles defeated the Celtics 106:94. (53-15)

After a day off, the Eagles played against the Raptors at home, winning 118 to 94. (54-15)

Paul played 38 minutes, made 20 of 11 shots, 6 of 3 three-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, scored 31 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists. He continued to improve his basic data and increase his chips in the MVP competition.

Objectively speaking, Kobe has the greatest chance of winning the MVP this season. Although the Lakers were double-killed by the Eagles, they are still second in the Western Conference. Kobe's statistics are good enough; Correct guidance will "be more beneficial than harmful" to the team.

At the very least, more rest time can be won for Garnett and Joe Johnson!

Garnett played 29 minutes and fully suppressed the Dragon King Bosh; many fans regarded Bosh as "Garnett's successor". Facts have proved that the difference between the two is far!

Garnett is no longer good at "attacking tough situations", and Bosh is even weaker at critical moments; he does not yet have Garnett's defense, and his coping ability is also lacking.

Not to mention the stats, but with Bosh as the boss of the team to build a team, it is really difficult to make a difference in the playoffs!

On March 3, the Eagles lost for the Nth time of the season due to "rotation". The team lost to the Detroit Pistons 18:87 after Garnett was rested, ending the winning streak. (90-54)

Facts have proved that without Garnett as the inside fulcrum, the Eagles' offense is still too outside, and it just happened to be restrained by the Pistons' defensive system.

Although Paul, who gained weight, contributed his toughest game against Billups, scoring 24 points and 9 assists, Rasheed Wallace became the key player for the Pistons. In the game, he hit 4 consecutive three-pointers, abruptly helping the Pistons, which was 10 points behind, to tie the score. Then Billups and Hamilton hit mid-range shots one after another, helping the team beat the Eagles.

Despite losing the game, the Eagles still have a three-game lead over the second-best Spurs in the league, and they are basically guaranteed the regular-season championship with 12 games left in the season; for this reason, they occasionally lose a game The game will not shake the fans' confidence in the Eagles.

On March 3, the Eagles ushered in the Milwaukee Bucks at home.Due to Yi Jianlian's reimbursement for the season, the additional attributes of the "China Derby" in this game were removed and it was reduced to an ordinary regular season game.

Reid and Yi Jianlian suffered consecutive injuries. In principle, the Bucks have given up this season. Weakness of the season.

At the end of the season, it is a "happy" thing to be against this kind of tank team. You don't need to work hard to win, they can't wait to surrender!This game is a microcosm. Joe Johnson was a little unwell before the game and missed the game; but Paul and Garnett attacked together to help the team easily beat the Bucks 129:106.

Paul scored 28 points and 9 assists, one step away from the double-double data!But this is not to blame Paul, the Bucks' perimeter defense can be easily torn apart without passing the ball!

Sometimes it's really not a good thing if the opponent's fighting spirit is too low!

That is, after the game, Ke Yan also called Yi Jianlian and asked about his situation.

For Yi Jianlian, the impact of the injury was not as serious as imagined. Yi Jianlian chose to be reimbursed for the season, not necessarily without the intention of "avoiding risks" for the Olympics.

However, Yi Jianlian's mood is still not very high!There are many reasons. The cold living environment in Milwaukee is too difficult for Yi Jianlian, who was born in Guangdong Province, to adapt; and this city also has some xenophobic attributes!Yi Jianlian's too introverted personality made it difficult for him to deal with his teammates so easily. As an inside player, he would not get help from his teammates.

"Working hard outside is always about you adapting to the environment, not the environment adapting to you!" Ke Yan strongly shattered Yi Jianlian's mental illusions, "When you come to the United States to pursue your dream, you have to adapt to this alliance!"

Yi Jianlian's NBA career is not considered a success. In addition to his lack of strength, too many career injuries, and not being integrated into the locker room of the team are definitely one of the reasons!

Sometimes Yao Ming was dragged to nightclubs by his players; Ke Yan set some rules for the players, but he would not break or even limit some of the established rules.
