The older superstars of the NBA

Compared with the previous three games, the defensive intensity and enthusiasm in the fourth game once again rose to a higher level. As soon as the game started, there was a bit of disharmony on the court.

There was a little friction between Los Angeles Lakers starting center JaVale McGee and New York Knicks center Tristan Thompson.

Tristan was originally a substitute. After the last game, DeAndre Jordan suffered some minor injuries. In order to let him recover a little longer, head coach Norman Thomas sent Tristan on.

Unexpectedly, Tristan, who had been very stable before, started to argue with McGee this time.

At first, it was just a quarrel. The two were not convinced by each other, and even made some small moves during the singles. Later, I don’t know who said what, and the two directly clashed. If the players on both sides hadn’t stopped them in time, I’m afraid the two would have really clashed. Let’s fight together!

This small situation made the subsequent game time between the two teams full of gunpowder.

Although the bosses of the two teams, LeBron James and Zhao Feiyang, tried their best to restrain themselves and prevent other players from conflicting, in the second half, various conflicts between the two sides were inevitable.

Of course, the only gratifying thing is that no matter how fierce the two sides are, this series is definitely much better than when the Cavaliers and Warriors fought.

After all, the Warriors have a villain like Draymond Green, but the Knicks don't, and neither does the Lakers.

Green is really passionate on the defensive end, but he has too many bad tricks. Coupled with that big mouth that never knows to shut up, it can be said that the reason why the Warriors have so many anti-fans is largely due to It's because of him and Pachulia.

When the two sides played with 2 minutes and 11 seconds left in the game, the point difference widened to 11 points. The Lakers led the Knicks by virtue of their home court advantage.

The Knicks tried to counterattack at the last moment. Andre Drummond and Dwight Howard on the inside both stepped up to help Zhao Feiyang pick and roll, allowing him to seize the opportunity to shoot a three-pointer from the outside.

His touch is still pretty good.

The first time the score was chased successfully, the basketball was thrown and the score difference was reduced to 8 points. However, when he continued to try this method for the second time, the Lakers made a very aggressive defense.

They directly asked Danny Green to go up and drag Zhao Feiyang, especially after he jumped up, Danny grabbed Zhao Feiyang and the basketball from his hands.

The force was so strong that Zhao Feiyang couldn't even throw a two plus one.

Such fouls gradually exhausted the little time left. By the last minute, it was too late for the Knicks to chase points!

Even if Zhao Feiyang scored a difficult two-plus-one that shocked the entire audience under double-teaming, there would not be much time left for the Knicks, and it would not be enough for them to tie the Lakers and regain the situation.

beep.

The moment the timer sounded, the game came to an end. The two sides scored 120 to 127, and the Knicks finally lost the game by 7 points.

Zhao Feiyang scored 30 points, Derrick Rose and Zach LaVine scored 43 points together, followed by Adrian Ennis with 13 points.

湖人队那边，勒布朗.詹姆斯交出了28分11个篮板2次盖帽1次抢断的数据，浓眉哥安东尼.戴维斯则抢到了12个篮板，同时打出了19分的数据。

The key to victory lies in the other Lakers players, especially the young ones. Although the average scoring is not that exaggerated, they performed well overall.

The continuous rotations ensured that the physical exertion of LeBron and other main players would not be a problem, which became the key to their final victory in this game.

After a 2-2 draw, the two sides returned to the same starting line.

Before the battle at Tianwang Mountain, there was some bad news from the Knicks. DeAndre Jordan, who had suffered minor injuries before, was seriously injured in the fourth game. Although the team had worked hard to control his playing time, he still felt strange after the game.

After the game, after diagnosis by the team doctor, Jordan went to temporarily seek treatment for his injury and may have to miss one or two games.

This is undoubtedly bad news, so much so that the Knicks officials had to come out and announce it.

When the outside world learned about this incident, most fans expressed regret. After all, the two sides can only play seven games at most, and they have already played four games. If Jordan misses two games, the game between the Knicks and the Lakers may be over!

As the team's main center, missing the game at such a critical moment will definitely have a great impact on the team.

Some are happy and some are sad.

This news is certainly good news for the Lakers.

The value played by DeAndre Jordan in the series is still very important. As the starting forward player of the Knicks, DeAndre Jordan has scored more than 15 points in these games, and his role on the defensive end is even greater than that on the offensive end. big.

Now the two sides are about to compete for match points, but such a core player is injured. There is no doubt that the Knicks' situation is not optimistic.

Amid concerns from the outside world, the Knicks ushered in the fifth game of their series.

The morale of the whole team was pretty good, especially after returning to Madison Square Garden. Many players believed that the team could win the match point by virtue of their home court advantage.

However, no one expected that when the situation was pretty good, Derrick Rose, another main defender of the team, would be injured!

Rose hasn't experienced a major injury for a long time, at least not as frequently as he used to end the season.

Firstly, he changed his playing style, and secondly, the Knicks did not give him that much playing time and ball rights, which was equivalent to protecting his physical condition in disguise.

Many people thought that Rose had ended those unpleasant experiences and his injured physique. It was not until the news was exposed before the game that many people recalled that Rose had only been healthy for two seasons.

Even in the season when he first went to the Timberwolves, he could not achieve full attendance. In the past few years, he has played nearly 70 games this season. Such performance is not easy!

Now that the game is about to begin, Rose is injured. This sudden news makes many New York fans unable to help but sigh.

It also caused the morale of the Knicks team to suddenly collapse.

Half an hour before the game started, the players in the Knicks locker room were listless.

They were talking and laughing at first but this time they were very calm. Even the team's head coach Norman Thomas was a little uncomfortable with this look.

Zhao Feiyang, as the core of the team, stood up to encourage everyone, but the effect was not that good.

After the urging of the staff, no matter how low the morale of the Knicks team was, everyone could only go to the infield to prepare for the game.
