Chapter 443 They represent the future!

The fifth game between the Knicks and the Celtics returned to Madison Square Garden. The Celtics achieved the effect they wanted and suspended Green, but they did not get the result they wanted. Green lived in the north that night The Celtics didn't seize the opportunity to win the game, and they couldn't stop the Knicks' steel torrent at Madison Square Garden.

Green's absence did cause problems for the Knicks' defense, but this problem became less important after Whiteside came on the court. Green's strength lies in his defensive ability, and his ability to protect the frame is not actually his strong point. A 201cm You can't ask a player to protect the basket as well as a player over 208cm or 210cm. That would be unrealistic. After a season of training and guidance from players like Bogut and Green, Whiteside has grown in the NBA. Great progress has been made in this area.

The Celtics desperately found that even if Green was suspended, they would not be able to break into the Knicks' inside line. The Knicks' four outside gates were disappointing, including Gatsby, Thompson, Leonard and Iguodala. There is another Whiteside inside, like a mountain crossing the inside. Garnett and Buss have no way to challenge such a giant and can only attack on the outside, but that is where the Knicks' defense is strongest!

Coach Doc Rivers yelled on his hips on the sidelines, waving his arms from time to time and yelling loudly. When the time entered the second half, he calmed down, sat on a stool, and supported his chin with his hands-the general situation is over!
The morale of the Celtics is extremely low. They are about to lose this game, the entire series, the entire season's efforts, and the entire team. Everyone knows that the ball Team rebuilding is imperative.

After the game, Coach Rivers and Coach D'Antoni shook hands. Coach Rivers said sincerely: "Congratulations, Mike, I hope you can lead the team out of the East and complete your dynasty!"

Coach D'Antoni showed no composure. He patted Coach Rivers on the shoulder and said, "Will you stay with the Celtics to rebuild?"

Coach Rivers said with a bitter smile: "I don't know, maybe it will or maybe it won't." He saw Gatsby approaching, and hurried to shake hands with Gatsby: "Gatsby, congratulations, I would like to ask you, what is your goal?"

Gatsby laughed and said, "At this point, there is nothing to hide. Of course, it is to enter the finals, and then complete the great cause of the dynasty!"

Coach Rivers glanced enviously at D'Antoni in the distance, and sighed: "I really envy Mike, I had a chance too, the gathering of Pierce, Allen, and Kevin brought us a championship , I thought we would win more championships in the future, but things are always not as good as we imagined.

Mike is a lucky guy, he met you, just like Phil Jackson met Michael, really enviable. "

Gatsby laughed and said, "It's my luck. Without him, I might not be where I am today. It is because he trusts me and gives me a chance that I can achieve what I am today."

Rivers shook his head: "Gold will always shine. It is impossible for such an outstanding you not to be able to make it."

Gatsby was noncommittal, covered his mouth with his jersey and asked, "Are you going to the Clippers next?"

Rivers was taken aback and covered his mouth with his hands: "How could there be such news?"

Gatsby's expression was covered by his jersey, but his tone revealed his determination: "It's not important, Mr. Rivers, you should know the grievances between me and the Clippers, they will not have good fruit."

Rivers smiled and said: "I'm not sure yet. Even if I go, the outcome is unknown. Even if the Knicks are stronger, they may not be able to win the Clippers. Moreover, even if they are won, so what, hurry up." The ship is in the west, and there are only two games a year, and it’s not a big deal if you lose.”

Gatsby said with a smile: "If you are willing to coach a playoff team, then of course there is no problem, but once you make a decision to enter the finals, then you have to consider this issue."

Rivers laughed loudly: "Gatsby, are you so sure that you can lead the team to the Finals every year?"

Gatsby pointed to the Knicks' bench: "Mr. Rivers, look over there, what do you see?"

Rivers turned his head and looked at Klay Thompson, Kawhi Leonard, Jeremy Lin, Tobias Harris and other young people. He said with difficulty: "...the future?"

Gatsby said with satisfaction: "Yes, in the future, in the next season, next and next, this group of young people will become more mature. At that time, who else in the league can stop our iron hooves?"

Coach Rivers felt that his body was crumbling. At such a moment, he had the idea of ​​disarming and returning to the field. The Knicks lineup has grown, and it is difficult to have opponents in the league. These years will become the Knicks. The world is over, he wants to win the championship under the Knicks led by Gatsby, it is impossible!
His voice became bitter: "What if a super team emerges? If you win the championship this season and complete your dynasty, there will definitely be a team forming a super team next season to fight you."

Gatsby laughed and said, "That would be fun, wouldn't it. If it was that easy to win the championship, it wouldn't be interesting."

The series between the Miami Heat and the 76ers has also come to an end. The Heat defeated the 4ers 1:76. Anthony played the best playoff game of his career, but they still lost in the face of the Miami Heat, who were armed to the teeth. .

The Nets and the Bulls fought in seven games. History has changed here. Originally, the Bulls would beat the Nets, but in this life, the Nets finally defeated the Bulls without Rose. Such a difficult battle, if Rose is here, maybe enter the second round It's the Chicago Bulls.

The war between the Pacers and the Eagles also came to an end. Paul George showed amazing strength. In the absence of Grant Hill, he took over the banner and became the leader of the team. He defeated the Atlanta Hawks in six games and entered the second round. Paul George's The outstanding performance is amazing, and some people are already discussing whether George has stepped into the top ten small forward positions in the league.

Gatsby thinks there is absolutely no problem with this. The strongest small forward in the league right now is naturally LeBron James, followed by Durant or Anthony, followed by Paul George and Leonard. No matter what It is said that there are always top ten.

The first round in the West was not anxious, the Thunder defeated the Rockets 4:2, the Grizzlies defeated the Clippers 4:2, the Spurs swept the Lakers 4:0, the Golden State Warriors defeated the Nuggets 4:2, Curry showed a brilliant performance The dazzling light, people exclaimed that this is a Gatsby who is a few centimeters shorter. Such a handsome face!
