Chapter 578: Who is the opponent of the Knicks in the Eastern Conference Finals?
?NBA: No. 1 Forward???
Lian Dao was very surprised by Bosh's injury, just like Rose before.
After history has changed, the opponents of these two teams have changed.
But unexpectedly, the history of these two teams has not changed in any way.
But with the change of the Heat's opponents, I don't know if they will finally complete the elimination of the Celtics like they did against the Pacers in history.
The strength of the Celtics is not like that of the Pacers. Although the Big Three are old, their strength in the playoffs is still very terrifying.
Coupled with an advanced Rondo, Bosh was caught off guard by his injury.
The Heat are likely to be eliminated by the Celtics.
However, this is still very beneficial to the Knicks.
In the Eastern Conference finals, whether it is the Celtics or the Heat without Bosh, the Knicks have a favorable position.
However, the situation in the east has not yet been fully concluded.
Lian Dao didn't believe that Coach Sibo would choose to surrender.
Pat Laili will not allow his hard-earned Big Three lineup to become a joke in the league.
Next, the Heat will definitely make an adjustment to the lineup.
…
May 15th, the second day after the g2 game.
The Knicks went to Indiana with a big score of 2:0.
What Lian Dao didn't expect was that he didn't even get an extra day of rest for the transition.
There is still only one day of rest between the two games, which is really a devil's schedule.
In their first game in India, they encountered strong resistance.
With the addition of home court advantage, the entire Pacers team ushered in an explosion.
Danny Granger seemed to be dreaming of his peak in this game.
Under the defense of Lian Dao, he made 6 of 15 shots and 4 of 6 three-pointers. He scored 20 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.
For some defenses, Lian Dao had done well, but Granger was able to make shots.
His scoring is not the most deadly, the most deadly is Granger's outburst, so that the Knicks dare not shrink the basket to help defend.
This also allows George Hill and Royon Hibbert to have the most space to play.
The Pacers finally defeated the Knicks 114:108 and pulled back a victory at home.
The big score was rewritten to 1:2.
…
One day later, the Heat lost to the Celtics again with 78:95. The Heat are currently behind by a big score of 1:2.
In this game, the Heat lost completely, especially Dwyane Wade, who made 2 of 13 shots and only 15.4% of the shots.
After the first three quarters, the Heat trailed by 14 points.
Although Chalmers broke out in the fourth quarter, he made 4 of 6 shots in the fourth quarter, 1 of 1 three-pointers, scored 9 points and 4 rebounds.
Unfortunately, Rajon Rondo of the Celtics was not weak either. He made 5 of 5 shots in the fourth quarter, including a three-pointer, scoring 11 points and 2 rebounds.
The Heat's defeat in this game seems to have once again verified the importance of Chris Bosh to the Heat.
If Bosh can't come back before the Eastern Conference Finals, even if the Heat finally eliminated the Celtics to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals, it is impossible to be the opponent of the Knicks.
…
May 21, Madison Square Garden.

?NBA: No. 1 Forward???
In the away game G4, the Knicks defeated the Pacers again and took a 3:1 lead.
And tonight is also returning to the home court, they will completely eliminate the Pacers in this game.
This game did not give the Pacers any chance.
With five minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Knicks held a 24-point lead.
Seeing that the general situation was over, Vogel replaced most of the main lineup, leaving some players with little experience in the playoffs on the court.
Training!
After finally playing in the playoffs, even though he knew he was eliminated, he had to give full play to the role of the playoffs!
At the end of the game, the Knicks defeated the Pacers 111:85.
At the same time, the Knicks took a 4:1 lead and completely eliminated the Pacers.
After the game, all the Knicks embraced passionately.
They reached the Eastern Conference finals for three consecutive years, which was unimaginable before.
The Knicks fans in the audience burst into deafening cheers.
They witnessed with their own eyes that this team stood up from the ruins, moved to the forefront of the league, and became one of the strongest championship teams in the league.

Three years ago, all New Yorkers could not have imagined it, but at this moment it has become a reality!
Everyone in the Pacers is full of disappointment. They know that their playoff journey is over.
Although a little regretful and a little lost, none of them regretted it.
They know the gap between themselves and the Knicks, but even so, the Pacers never thought of throwing in the towel.
"Congratulations, Sickle, you have advanced to the Eastern Conference finals, I hope you can become the final victors!"
Granger seemed relieved a lot at this moment.
He and Lian Dao shook hands and hugged each other. At this moment, the two of them didn't look like rivals on the court at all, they were more like old friends who met each other while drinking.
"You are really great, Danny, I will carry your blessings to the end, and I also hope that you can become even better next season!"
Lian Dao really liked Granger's character.
Paul George's template is Granger, but the two are on the same team and have never had a dispute over the ball.
On the contrary, Granger and Paul are very good friends, and even on the way of Paul's growth, Granger played the role of a master.
The two are actually both teammates and competitors, but each wants the other to be better.
Such friendship and friendship are really precious!
Moreover, Granger's career is also full of regrets.
It can be said that, like Rose, he has not enjoyed his peak state.
In the year he was selected as an All-Star, he suffered a torn ligament in his right foot.
If it weren't for that injury, his future achievements may be even better than Paul George.
"We will, but next season, I don't want to meet you. You are really too strong. It is an honor and a sorrow to be your opponent!"
Granger shook his head and smiled wryly.
Except for g3, in the other four matches between Granger and Lian Dao, the combined scores did not exceed 40 points.

From the opponent's data, we can see how strong Lian Dao's defense is.
Paul George is actually similar, and the series with the Knicks made George grow a lot.
…
The game between the Celtics and the Heat is still in full swing.
The Celtics are a veteran team, but even if the Heat lose Bosh, their strength should not be underestimated.
In the g4 game, the Heat blatantly launched a counterattack at the Celtics' home court.
James kept attacking the Celtics inside, seeking confrontation.
In the final game, he made 7 of 20 shots and 18 of 24 free throws. He scored 34 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists.
In addition, Dwyane Wade scored 23 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists.
Chalmers had 12 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists.
As the sixth man of the Heat, Jr. Smith also broke out, scoring 17 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists.
In the end, the Heat defeated the Celtics 115:110.
In the end, the two teams drew 2:2!
The match between the two teams has officially entered the battle of Tianwang Mountain!
On May 22, the battle between the Heat and the Celtics at Tianwangshan officially started!
This game ~www.mtlnovel.com~ The Knicks are also paying attention to the whole process.
After all, whichever of these two teams advances may become the Knicks' opponent in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Double serve jump ball, when James jumped the ball, he dialed the ball from Garnett's head to Haslem's hands.
The game officially begins!
"Boss, who do you think will be our opponent in the Eastern Conference Finals?"
While watching the game, Gallinari asked Lian Dao curiously.
Lian Dao and a group of teammates lay on the sofa in the team's video room, watching the live broadcast of the Heat's match against the Celtics.
"Heat!"
Lian Dao said firmly.
"Why, I feel that the Celtics are stronger!"
"for example?"
"The Celtics are a strong team with Pierce, Garnett, Ray Allen, and Rondo."
"Whether they are starters or substitutes, their strength is better than the current lack of major generals Heat!"
Gallinari said seriously.
"You think so too?"
Lian Dao looked around and asked.
Almost all teammates nodded seriously.
"Don't underestimate LeBron, he hasn't played his best yet!"
These two teams have met in history, but it was in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Because history has changed, the Knicks have the league's first record.
Therefore, the Celtics will be forced to meet the Heat in the semifinals ahead of schedule.
Originally, before this, Lian Dao also believed that the Celtics were more likely to advance.
But g4, Coach Spoelstra's tactics, and the potential of the Heat, made Lian Dao think that the Heat would definitely be the final winner of this round of the series.
