Chapter 313: hottest game
In fact, he is most envious of the Knicks' bench lineup, which is too luxurious. David Lee, Gallinari, Danny Green, Wilson Chandler, etc. are too luxurious. There are no short boards.
Compared with the Big Three, where the Heat didn't even have the ball, the Knicks are what makes Thibodeau feel really scary, and the most important thing is that they are still in the Eastern Conference.
With the last three minutes left, the Chicago Bulls not only failed to get within 20 points of the approaching score, but were also stretched to 24 points by the Knicks.
Seeing that there is no hope of a comeback, Thibodeau sighed helplessly, called a timeout, and gave up this game. They will have a back-to-back game tomorrow. Instead of having a meaningless smack with the Knicks here, it is better to let the players cultivate their physical fitness , preparing for tomorrow's game against the Detroit Pistons.
At least the next game will be much easier than this one!
At the end of the game, the Knicks defeated the Chicago Bulls 116:95 and became the final winner of the Christmas game.
Lian Dao did not set a new scoring record in the Christmas game, but his 59 points, 8 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 blocks were still the most eye-catching performance in the game.
In addition, Millsap scored a large double-double of 25 points and 16 rebounds in this game. Although he was slightly behind in the game against Boozer in the first half, he also defended Boozer. Remarkable.
The best performer on the Bulls' side is undoubtedly Derrick Rose, with 35 points and 14 assists, and Carlos Boozer, with 29 points and 18 rebounds.
After Lian Dao dealt with all kinds of weird problems from the media after the game, he went home with his little senior sister who was waiting for him, and the scene of Lian Dao and his little senior sister getting married was also photographed by the paparazzi of the gossip news. This Lian Dao and the little senior sister are not shy, and they are very generous to stand there and compare the scissors. The relationship between the two was announced as early as last season's All-Star Game.
However, Lian Dao didn't shy away from it but made the paparazzi stunned for a moment before pressing the shutter. It is probably the first time this guy has encountered such a cooperative NBA star.

While Stoudemire was recovering from his injury, the Knicks had a record of 3 wins and 2 losses, which is not too good. In fact, Stoudemire's injury had some impact on the Knicks' record.
Especially in the previous game against the Celtics, Stoudemire missed the game for the first time. There were big problems with the tactical adjustments and player status in that game, which caused the Knicks' winning streak to stop at 25 games.
Of course, the next game against the Heat, the absence of Stoudemire will make the game more difficult.
Stoudemire's absence made the media not very optimistic about the Knicks' ability to beat the Heat's Big Three. Especially in the previous few days of the game, Millsap was at a disadvantage against Bosh.
This is mainly because Bosh is very flexible, and he rarely gives Millsap a chance to fight physically, which makes Millsap, who has a physical advantage, not know how to focus.
D'Antoni also has no good solution at this point. Regarding Dwyane Wade, Tony Allen was also on the injured list before. This time he will defend Wade. I believe it will definitely give Wade a surprise.
On December 26, Lian Dao won his seventh "Player of the Week" award of the season. The previous six consecutive "Player of the Week" awards ended when they lost three games in a row. Two consecutive victories were achieved in a week, and Lian Dao also won the best player of the week again.
Needless to say, his performance last week, just the 74 points that have been hotly discussed so far made his award no suspense.
And it is foreseeable that this month's "Player of the Month" must still be in his pocket.
After the Christmas game, the Knicks have played 30 regular-season games in the new season, and so far, Lian Dao has averaged 40.3 points, 7.4 rebounds, 10.2 assists, 1.8 steals, and 2.4 blocks per game.
The shooting percentage was 58.3%, the three-point shooting percentage was 45.7%, and the free throw percentage was 94.6%.
Lian Dao's three shooting percentages have already exceeded 190. If Lian Dao can keep it until the end of the game, he will be the second player to reach the "190 club" besides Nash.
Although he said in front of the media that he didn't like some historical records and honors, in fact, in private, Lian Dao still valued them very much.
Including some scoring records. In the previous game against the Thunder, Westbrook led the bench and Lian Dao also applied to play. In addition to teaching the Thunder a lesson, there is another point that he can take this opportunity to score some points. After all, Westbrook did As the main player, some media and fans are embarrassed to say that Lian Dao scored points.
Scored 70+ in two games this season, which can allow him to advance several places in the historical scoring list. This achievement will have a great impact on his future status in the Hall of Fame.
In fact, the ranking of Hall of Fame players will involve scoring. If you don't even have a very representative game, then why should the fans remember you.
Just like some people mentioned Kobe, in addition to the five championships, the most mentioned should be the 81-point dragon battle!
If Kobe's 81 points are a positive teaching material, then Wade is a negative teaching material. In his peak years, his performance was not inferior to Kobe's at all. In the eyes of many people, Wade's appearance was even better.
But Wade has never scored 60+ in his career, which has a great impression on his ranking in the Hall of Fame.
When he was at his peak, many people were full of praise for him, but many netizens in later generations commented on the ranking of the best players in the second position. Wade basically became a little transparent every time.
Even, some netizens in later generations even ranked James Harden ahead of Dwyane Wade.
You know, back then he was also the scoring leader with three championship rings.
The reason is that Wade lacks a representative game.
…
Just after he won the "Player of the Week" for the seventh time, the NBA officially announced the results of the second round of the 2010-2011 season All-Star voting, and Lian Dao still won the top spot.
In fact, the all-star voting started in mid-November, and the first round of voting was announced on December 13th. Lian Dao won the first round with one million votes and 80,000 votes, and in the second round he won again with one With 1.17 million votes, it continued to be the top voter.
So far, Lian Dao has received a total of 2.25 million votes, and the second place is LeBron James of the Heat, who has only received 1.39 million votes so far. The gap between the two is very different. Lian Dao There is almost no suspense about winning the All-Star "Voting King".
However, there will be a third and fourth round of voting in the nba, and the only thing that gives fans suspense now is whether Lian Dao will break the nba voting record after all voting is over.
Many fans are also lamenting the popularity of Lian Dao, but many American fans do not know that it is In fact, Lian Dao's vote data has been diluted. If it is not diluted, the real number will definitely be shock the world!
On December 27, the entire Knicks flew to Miami by plane one day in advance.
Tomorrow at 7:30 pm, the Knicks will face the most topical and hottest Miami Big Three in the league. This time, like the previous game against the Heat, it will still be broadcast live across the United States.
Although the Knicks lost to the Big Three of the Heat a few days ago, as the two most talked about teams in the league, their duel is still the game that all fans are most looking forward to!
And the number of broadcasts of this game is no less than that of the playoffs, especially in Asia, almost every developed and developing region has broadcast this focus battle.
Even in Europe, there are many people paying attention to this game. After the World Championships, Lian Dao's popularity in Europe is booming, and he has gained a lot of fans in Europe.
There are many topics in this contest, especially last season, Lian Dao almost snatched James' regular season mvp, which made the media smell different.
Although Lian Dao and James have no personal grievances, the media doesn't think so. After all, they both belong to the Eastern Division, and both of them are players in the third position.
The natural confrontation will naturally not lack topics. This game is like the game between the Thunder and the Nuggets, which was promoted by some media as a battle for the third position in the strongest Western Conference.
This game is no exception. The media just changed one word, and it became "the battle for the third position in the strongest Eastern Conference!"
Although Lian Dao and James have no grievances, the previous loss to the Heat still makes Lian Dao heartbroken. Indeed, no team can maintain a winning streak all the time, but the team Lian Dao is most unwilling to lose to is the Heat's Big Three.
