After the Magic improved, they did not close the score gap. On the contrary, the Knicks responded strongly on the offensive end, making the score gap still slowly widening.
At the end of the third quarter, the score on the field came to 98:67, and the Knicks led by 31 points at the end of the third quarter.
In the fourth quarter, Stan Van Gundy replaced all the substitutes at the beginning of the game. The main players of the Magic team also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They faced too much pressure against the Knicks, especially the Knicks' defense like a solid wall. Make every attack of the Magic team look extraordinarily difficult.
If possible, they really don't want to meet the Knicks in the regular season or even the playoffs, but this is obviously unlikely. This is the first game of the regular season this season. The Knicks play three games, one at home and two away.
The Magic, who replaced the bench lineup, also announced that the "revenge" battle ended in failure.
The faces of all the fans in the Amway Arena were full of disappointment. They didn't expect the Magic to be so weak when they met the Knicks.
Many fans threw away the popcorn angrily and left the auditorium cursing. They didn't want to see the team they supported being defeated by their opponents at home.
The middle-aged man also sighed, his expectations were in vain. At this time, he also called his son beside him, stood up and wanted to walk towards the safe passage.
At this time, the little boy fanned his eyes and said, "Daddy, are you leaving? Didn't you say that our team will beat each other? Why are they all sitting on the bench?"
"Uh... boy, we call it a timely stop loss. This game has been unable to come back, so our players are conserving their energy and accumulating strength for the next blow to the opponent. Yes, yes, that's right!" The middle-aged man continued. After some brainstorming, he said that when he said this reason, he almost believed it himself.
"But…"
"It's nothing but, Thomas, you have to tell me who Susan is and what's going on with Xiaopang!" The middle-aged man saw that his son was still about to ask questions, so he hurriedly interrupted in a rough tone. middle aged man in very bad mood.
I don't know whether he was angry because of the bad mood caused by the Magic's disastrous loss, or because of the little boy's puppy love!
However, there should be more reasons for the fiasco of the Magic. After all, it seems that all children in the United States are more precocious. If all parents are like this, then there is probably no so-called "free" communication!
…
At the end of the game, the Knicks defeated the Magic 120:85 away, and at the same time ended the Magic's six-game winning streak.
In this game, Stoudemire came back in the first game and got the highest score of the game, 42 points and 14 rebounds.
Lian Dao played in three quarters, but in this game he focused more on organizing the offense, but he also scored 26 points, 11 rebounds and 16 assists. Lian Dao also got a triple-double in two consecutive games.
The highest scorer on the Magic's side is Dwight Howard with 24 points and 18 rebounds. In addition, the best player is Brandon Bass with 17 points and 9 rebounds.
Many times in this game, Stoudemire helped Cousins defend Howard, so Brandon Bass was often left open, but fortunately, this guy has no three-point ability.
The Knicks also won four consecutive victories after defeating the Magic.
After the victory over the Magic, the Knicks' game in December is all over.
In December, the Knicks had a total of 13 games, and the Knicks also got a record of 10 wins and 3 losses. Although the Knicks did not have consecutive back-to-back games in December, many of the teams they played against in December were from the East and West. A strong playoff team.
The Knicks also encountered an injury crisis within the team in December. They were able to win 10 games against powerful opponents, which is enough to illustrate the overall strength of the Knicks.
With the end of the game in December, the selection of the "Best Player of the Month" in December will follow.
The selection was once again divided.
In the East, apart from the Knicks' record of 10 wins and 3 losses in December, the Heat's record in December is also very good.
The league also had a "heat storm" in December!
The statistics of James and Wade in December are also very good. Dwyane Wade averaged 27.9 points, 4.9 rebounds and 7.1 assists in December; James 25.2 points, 7.9 rebounds and 5.8 assists.
Lian Dao's data in December was even better, averaging 48.7 points, 6.8 rebounds and 7.9 assists per game.
According to the data, Lian Dao's data in December completely crushed Wade and James, and there is no problem in awarding the "Best Player of the Month" to Lian Dao.
But recently, Lian Dao has been in the limelight too much, and at the same time, it has aroused the jealousy of some people. Some people even said in private that the nba league will soon be captured by international players.
In fact, the NBA treats international players with some unfair treatment. In the selection of some important awards, if the data of local players and international players is not much different, they will give priority to local players.
Unless the data of international players crushes local players, they will be forced to vote for international players.
It's the same this time. Although Lian Dao has completely crushed the Heat's James and Wade in terms of statistics, but in terms of team record, the Knicks suffered a 3-game losing streak in December, so the record is indeed not as good as the Heat.
At this time, some people in the NBA headquarters raised doubts. Some people supported the award of the "Player of the Month" trophy to Lian Dao, but some people believed that it should be awarded to LeBron James or Dwyane Wade.
The reason they gave was that the Heat were the team with the best record in the Eastern Conference in December, and the "best player of the month" should select the player with the best data from the team with the best record.
When they said this, I’m afraid they forgot. Just in January last season, they were the “Best Player of the Month” in the West. The head star of the Hornets with excellent statistics, Chris Paul.
The two parties are also arguing about this.
Not only that, Miami fans and New York fans are also arguing on Twitter and Facebook. Miami fans support James and Wade, while New York fans support Lian Dao.
"The best player of the month should be the best player of the team with the best record. There is no dispute about this~ www.mtlnovel.com~ The appraisal is complete!"
"From upstairs, it's like going to a nightclub and losing your mind. Sickle's statistics directly beat Dwyane and LeBron. The best player of the month should be the strongest player in the Eastern Conference!"
"Hehe, it's just a stat brush. If you get good stats, you're the best player of the month?"
"There is no brain black upstairs, the appraisal is complete!"
…
As this matter continued to ferment on the Internet, many media also set up boards to discuss this matter.
It is estimated that no one thought that a "best player of the month" could cause an uproar in the nba league.
This is the attention of superstars like Lian Dao, James and Wade. This kind of horror with its own traffic is invisibly magnified by the two cities of New York and Miami!
In the end, it was David Stern who made the final decision. There are two Eastern Conference "Player of the Month" in December, one is the Knicks' Lian Dao, and the other is the Heat's LeBron James.
As for why it's not Wade, David Stern thinks that Lian Dao and James, who are both players in the third position, will attract more attention together!
At the same time, the best player in the Western Conference was also confirmed. Kevin Durant was elected as the best player in the Western Conference by virtue of his record of averaging 29.4 points, 5.7 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game.
If the player with the best data is selected from the team with the best record as some people said before, then the best player of the month in the Western Conference can only be the Spurs player, not Durant.
Compared with the older Spurs players, David Stern must choose Durant, a new-generation superstar.
David Stern's decision did not stop fans in New York and Miami from arguing.
On the contrary, as this matter continues to ferment, there is an intensified trend on the Internet.
