Chapter 395 New York Game of Thrones!

After all, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. No matter how tightly the Knicks cover up, there will always be some rumors leaked out. A reporter named WOJ compiled and synthesized various gossip and wrote an article, which actually restored the big picture. Part of the facts, the title of the article [New York Game of Thrones].

The article was reprinted by many major media as soon as it came out. The article combed through the internal conflicts of the Knicks in detail, analyzed why Anthony and Stoudemire had conflicts in the locker room in the playoffs, and what Gatsby did to resolve conflicts in the locker room. The measures, details, etc. made Gatsby feel very detailed when he saw it, as if he was seeing it with his own eyes.

But Gatsby knew that no one in the team would reveal the matter, and couldn't help but sigh that the imagination of these reporters was really amazing.

However, this article was reproduced by major media, of course not because of these speculative details, but the final summary of WOJ:

"...After this battle, Gatsby became the real king of the Knicks. Afterwards, Cameron and Amare, no matter whether they are convinced or not, as long as they are in the Knicks for a day, they have to choose to submit to Gatsby's feet, or they can only ask to be traded...

……

... The Knicks' opponents should be very disappointed, and they should even be shocked and afraid. An unprecedentedly powerful Knicks has risen, and thousands of dead souls will be added under his iron hooves!
...Boston, Miami, Oklahoma, Los Angeles, etc. will all be under pressure from New York. The shadow of the Knicks giant covers the entire North America, and the Knicks dynasty is in sight!

... The great Gatsby! ... His greatness not only comes from the court, but also his wrists are astounding, he is a real king! "

WOJ expressed great respect to Gatsby.

The public opinion of the outside world also exploded because of this, and the comments were somewhat polarized.

Some people think that Gatsby's iron fist is correct. Extraordinary means must be used in extraordinary times. In such a critical stage of the playoffs, the team cannot withstand internal strife, and the only way to suppress it with iron and blood is once and for all. .

Some people think that Gatsby's approach will cause endless troubles. Now that he forcibly suppresses Anthony and Stoudemire, it will eventually explode again after the end of the season. By then, the Knicks will fall apart, and Gatsby will become the Knicks. sinner!
When Gatsby saw the comments from the outside world, he smiled lightly, let him go, winning this year's championship is a serious matter, let's talk about next season next season, if Anthony and Stoudemire really want to leave, They can't be stopped, they are still a good bargaining chip, and it will be good to trade some easy-to-get-together stars and come back.

After this season's training, rookies like Thompson and Leonard can also take responsibility next season, and there will be no disastrous consequences if there is Anthony Stoudemire.

As for making Anthony or Stoudemire Stoudemire the boss, Gatsby has thought about this option, but he himself is not someone who is willing to be inferior to others. That's all, now he is two regular season MVP, one FMVP, let him be someone else's younger brother-sorry, I can't do it!
Those are things for the future, and now Gatesby only has the championship in his eyes.

On May 5, the second game between the Celtics and the Knicks was held at Madison Square Garden as scheduled.

Celtics starting lineup is: Rajon Rondo, Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Brandon Bass, and -- Avery Bradley!

"Hey, coach Doc Rivers took the initiative to adjust the lineup. He replaced Ray Allen and brought Bradley up as the starter. Bradley, a young man, naturally has no way to compete with Ray Allen offensively. , but his characteristic is strong defense. I guess Coach Rivers’ intention is to let him defend Gatsby. We can take a look at the matchup later.

Coach Rivers admires this young man, I remember the last time I coached with him he said that Avery Bradley is fast, shoots well, and is already an NBA-level defender , He can guard any player in the league's No. [-] position.

His rating is very high, maybe that's why Bradley came up today. Zhang Lili laughed.

The Knicks' starting lineup is still the same, Gatsby, Thompson, Anthony, Stoudemire and Bogut.

Bogut and Garnett jumped the ball, Bogut gave the ball to Gatsby, and Gatsby held the ball for half court.

"Mr. Zhang, what you said is right. Bradley really went to face Gatsby. I wonder if this young man can guard against Gatsby." Yang Yi laughed.

Bradley's defense with the ball is very sharp, even to the point of suffocation, his physical fitness is extremely strong, whether it is bounce, speed, flexibility, and muscle confrontation, he is a top outside player.

His steps are very thin, and he is rarely passed by his opponent;
What's even more rare is his concentration on the defensive end. Bradley rarely appears to be out of position on the defensive end.

He is also the Celtics player with the most rebounds per game this season.

With a low center of gravity, Bradley bent down and bit Gatsby tightly. He looked up at Gatsby with excitement in his eyes.

But when Coach Rivers told him to start, he couldn't believe it. Not only was he not afraid when he heard that he was going to defend Gatsby, but he was extremely excited. He was very confident in his defense. He didn't think there was anyone in the league. The number position is that you can't defend yourself.

He was still thinking beautifully in his heart: If he can defend Gatsby and become the finisher of the superstar Gatsby, then he will be known, just like those Jordan finishers and Kobe finishers, Get chased by those Gatsby's rival teams!
Gatsby did feel the defensive pressure on Bradley, which other defenders could not do. Bradley bit him crazily, making him spend a lot of effort every step forward.

——This is what Coach Rivers wants to achieve!

Maybe he can't defend you, but it can make you less easy to attack, less easy to organize, and make you spend a lot of energy, which has achieved his goal.

Gatsby tried to let Bogut come up to help him block Bradley, but the young man was very alert and stuck to Gatsby, bypassing Bogut's pick-and-roll directly, Gatsby stuck to Bradley and went Breaking through inside, Bradley's pace was very close, and Gatsby couldn't get away at once. Garnett and Pierce directly blocked the breakthrough route. Once Gatsby rushed in, he would be surrounded by three people !

"Hey, Bradley defended very well. He entangled Gatsby. Coach Rivers' move is indeed symptomatic. If Gatsby can be restrained, it will be of great benefit to them. Gatsby After all, Bi is the core of the team's offense!" Zhang Li said.
