Chapter 330 325 72 wins to enter the playoffs!

Kobe won the All-Star Game MVP, so everyone is happy, the Los Angeles fans are happy to see it, and the league is also happy to see it.

After the All-Star break, the schedule accelerated abruptly and entered the sprint stage. The Knicks defeated the Bucks and the Nets one after another, announcing that they had become the first team in the league to secure a spot in the playoffs. It is limited to looks, because the Knicks' brilliant tomorrow has not yet come, and the accident has come first.

In the game against the Nets, the Knicks injured Bogut and Anthony successively. Bogut pulled his thigh and Anthony suffered a severe ankle sprain. The Knicks officially released the injury report the next day. Both of them had to rest for at least a month. The time, and even the first round of the playoffs were unable to play, which cast a haze on the Knicks' rise.

Bogut's injury can only be regarded as an accident, but Anthony's injury is accidental and inevitable-Anthony is in a hurry. Gatsby helped him win the MVP this season, but so far, it is not him who has performed the best, but Gates Even though Gatsby's statistics are not as good as his, but his efficiency is much higher than him, and Gatsby was originally the leader of the team. Even when Anthony played the best performance of his career, many people still think Gatsby He is the leader of the team.

Can't help Anthony not being in a hurry, this is the season he is closest to the MVP, to be honest, he is very grateful that Gatsby can help him to this level, few teammates can do this level, give up the support The right to the ball, the right to give up the shot, Gatsby's hit rate is so high, but the shots are four times less than him, so Gatsby's data is very close to his, and the efficiency is even more frightening. While Anthony was anxious, he also had admiration for Gatsby, but this couldn't hide his disappointment. After the All-Star Game, he devoted himself to the game and wanted to win the first MVP for himself!

But the result is known to everyone. Acting too hastily made Anthony lose the qualification to compete for MVP. There are no strict rules for the selection of MVP, but it is nothing more than team record, personal data and leadership.

The Knicks should have no problem with their team record this season. As of now, the Knicks have a record of 50 wins and 5 losses, the best start in history and the second consecutive winning streak in history. This is very advantageous in the MVP selection. , Anthony is not without a chance, but once he is injured, Gatsby will inevitably take on greater responsibilities in order to maintain the team's ranking and morale. In this way, Gatsby's statistics and leadership role will be comprehensively improved. In short, Anthony has lost his qualification to compete for MVP!

Gatsby expressed regret for Anthony's injury, and was also worried about whether the Knicks could play in the playoffs. The injury problem is not that simple. Although Anthony is only sprained, it is unknown how he will be after his comeback. After the injury Going directly to the playoffs will be more prone to injuries, which is also a hidden danger.

Two generals were injured at once. The Knicks have many players who can play. Although they are not stretched, there are always people who need to take more responsibilities, such as Chandler and Gatsby.

Under the leadership of Gatsby in February, the Knicks only lost two out of ten games, one to the Heat and one to the 76ers. Under the leadership of James, the Knicks lost the game.

The loss to the 76ers was purely due to the poor state of the Knicks. Even Gatsby didn't shoot much, let alone others, but Gatsby averaged The data is 34 points, 13 assists, 5 rebounds and 2.4 steals. When Anthony was absent, Gatsby broke out. The Eastern Conference Player of the Month in February was embraced by Gatsby.

The schedule in March is too unfriendly to the Knicks. There are 17 games in a month. Compared with only ten games in February, the schedule is too intensive. There are three back-to-back games, and some games only have one day off.

Gatsby asked D'Antoni to arrange rest successively, but he himself never stopped. He had a system by his side. For him, his physical strength was almost unlimited. No matter how tired he was, he could disappear instantly as long as he entered the system.

最后的十七场比赛盖慈比打出的数据让人瞠目结舌：40+10的场次有9场，50+10的比赛有2场，有一场是60+10，三月份的场均数据是39.2分11.5助攻5.8篮板2.7抢断，联盟的专家记者们张口结舌，大呼不可思议。

最后十七场比赛尼克斯只输掉3场比赛，尼克斯赛季72胜10负成为继96年公牛创下的赛季72胜球队！
Gatsby averaged 32.9 points, 11.1 assists, 5.4 rebounds and 2.6 steals per game!

Gatsby led the team to a record of 72 wins, and his personal statistics are very gorgeous. Although he was the MVP last season, he seems to be the MVP of this season. If the MVP is not given to him, then The league no longer needs to set up this award.

Anthony and Bogut have been determined to return in the playoffs, but there will be playing time control.

The east-west matchup table has also been released.

Western Conference:
The San Antonio Spurs, No. [-] in the West vs. the Memphis Grizzlies, No. [-] in the West;

Los Angeles Lakers, No. [-] in the West vs. No. [-] New Orleans Pelicans in the West;

The third-placed Dallas Mavericks in the Western Conference vs. the sixth-placed Portland Trail Blazers in the Western Conference;
The fourth in the West, the Oklahoma City Thunder vs. the fifth in the West, the Denver Nuggets.

Eastern Conference:
No. [-] New York Knicks in the East vs. No. [-] Indiana Pacers in the East;
The second Chicago Bulls in the East vs the seventh Philadelphia Seventy-Sixers in the East;
The third Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference vs. the sixth Atlanta Hawks in the Eastern Conference;

The fourth Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference VS the fifth Orlando Magic in the Eastern Conference.

As far as the schedule is concerned, it is beneficial to the Knicks, at least in Gatsby's view. They avoided the Miami Heat in the first and second rounds. This is the team that Gatsby fears the most. It is in line to stay in the Eastern Conference Finals to solve the problem. He expected that Anthony and Bogut should have recovered after one or two rounds of training, and they would be able to face the Miami Heat in their best form in the Eastern Conference Finals.

The Miami Heat are also thankful that they only met the Knicks in the last round. No one in the Eastern Conference wants to meet the Knicks. The Celtics even deliberately lost in the later stage to avoid the Knicks, but it was too late.

The Indiana Pacers have no choice but to face the Knicks. They must make the playoffs. The predictions of the experts are basically the same. There is basically not much suspense in the first round of the Knicks, and the second round will depend on the Orlando Magic. Who can appear with the Celtics? If it is the Celtics, the suspense will be greater. If it is the Orlando Magic, the Knicks will have a higher winning percentage.
