After the warm-up, everyone returned to the locker room.
Head coach D'Antoni made the final tactical arrangement.
Many tactics have been emphasized by D'Antoni many times before. This time, he emphasized again to ensure that the players do not make mistakes on the court.
"At the offensive end, we increased the speed. Except for Jennings, they have no players who can keep up with Sickle. They open up space to allow Sickle to displace singles. Once the opponent double-teams Sickle, the shooter is ready at any time."
"On the defensive end, Zhu, remember to defend Jennings to death, don't give him any chance, Paul, Bogut will be handed over to you, David, if necessary, you can assist in the defense, don't give the opponent any chance."
"..."
"Guys, remember, this is the playoffs, this is the real battle, from now on we have to give 200% energy to the game, I believe you can beat the Bucks like the regular season, send Milwaukee People go home to fish."
D'Antoni's tactics are still the same, running and bombing, opening up the space, and giving the ball to Lian Dao. In the first game, D'Antoni did not intend to let Lian Dao play without the ball, although D'Antoni knew that Lian Dao without the ball was the best. The scariest.
However, the first game is to be steady, and winning steadily is the most important thing.
"Knicks!"
"Must win!
! "" Must win!
! "" Must win!
! "
The Knicks shouted in unison.
The Bucks are also newcomers to the playoffs, and their experience in the playoffs is similar to that of the Knicks, both of which are pitiful.
The Knicks can just take the Bucks to adapt to the playoffs.
Therefore, this is also the reason why the Knicks did everything possible to prevent the Heat from sitting in sixth place during the regular season.
If the Heat are the Knicks' first-round opponent, the Knicks will definitely not be easy.
CCTV Sports.
Yu Jia: "The match between the two sides is about to start, let's first introduce the starting lineups of the two sides."
"For the Knicks, the point guard is Jrue Holiday, the shooting guard is Wilson Chandler, the small forward Lian Dao, the power forward Paul Millsap, and the center is David Lee. A lineup that is often used, this time they also got it in the regular season."
"The Knicks' lineup takes both offense and defense from the perimeter. Each of the Knicks' three perimeters can initiate offense. On the defensive end, their efficiency this season can also rank among the top three in the league."
"For the Bucks, Brandon Jennings at point guard, John Salmons at shooting guard, Carlos Delfino at small forward, Ersan Inlyasova at power forward, Andrew Bogut at center special."
"The Bucks changed Carlos Delfino to the third position. Carlos Delfino is faster. The Bucks should be looking for a defender who can keep up with Lian Dao. , but Carlos Delfino's height is quite different from that of Lian Dao, with this arrangement, isn't head coach Scott Skiles worried that Lian Dao will be cast into a sieve from the outside?"
"Director Zhang, what do you think of the Bucks' arrangement?"
"The head coach of the Bucks, Scott Skiles, should not choose to defend Lian Dao alone. Even James can't limit Lian Dao with a single defense, let alone Carlos Delfino. They should It's the 2/3 positions, the defensive arrangement of double-teaming Lian Dao from the outside and blocking the inside from the basket..."
Mr. Zhang Lili also analyzed the arrangement of the Bucks.
…
On the court, the appearance ceremony has been completed.
Today, Madison Square Garden is crowded with people, and the entire stadium is full of carnival-style shouts. This season, the Knicks have also been upgraded to become the Devil's home court.
The entire Madison Square Garden is filled with blue and white ocean waves.
Many fans held up cheering signs and cheering banners.
At this moment, all the Knicks players seemed to ignite the blood in their hearts. Amid the cheers of the home fans, all the Knicks players showed a high fighting spirit.
Standing on the court at this time, Jennings' scalp was also numb.
It's not that he hasn't seen the Devil's home court before, but he was still disturbed by the boos at the scene.
Playing in this atmosphere, if the mental quality of away players is not strong enough, there will be invisible pressure in their hearts.
On the floor of Madison Square Garden at Liantao Station, he was not nervous at all, but rather excited.
It seems that the playoffs are his real stage, as if he was born to spread his wings and soar among the stars.
…
The Knicks played against the Bucks, and G1 will start immediately.
David Lee and Bogut make a jump ball.
Bogut's height advantage is obvious, and he took the lead in jumping to get the ball.
Jennings received the ball in the backcourt and took the lead in attacking.
Brandon Jennings slammed the ball to Bogut, who had just reached the basket, before Holiday stepped forward to defend.
After receiving the ball, Bogut took advantage of Millsap's unsteady footing to take off and dunk under the basket.
Although Lian Dao hates Bogut, he still has some strength in the basket.
Although his shooting is not very accurate, he is still very good at dunking down after the screen.
2:0.
At this time, there were boos from the audience at Madison Square Garden.
Turning around, the Knicks had just served the ball, and the fans in the stadium resounded with deafening cheers.
"attack!
"
"attack!
"
"attack!
"
If Madison Square Garden was home to the Devils during the regular season, it's **** now.
All the fans at the scene were concentrating on helping the Knicks and shouting cheers.
Holiday moved forward steadily, and continued to make tactical gestures during the advancement.
The current Holiday is much more mature than when he first came. He knows how to help Lian Dao share the outside pressure.
Carlos Delfino began to defend Lian Dao as soon as he saw Lian Dao crossing the half-court, constantly preventing Lian Dao from receiving the ball.
Carlos Delfino's defensive attitude is tough, but his height and strength are a bit of a disadvantage when facing Shang Liandao.
Lian Dao leaned against Carlos Delfino with his shoulder, and Holiday just passed the ball over here. After receiving the ball, Lian Dao bumped Carlos Delfino away with his shoulder, and made a jump shot from the outside .
The touch of the basketball is very soft.
"brush!"
Three points hit!
2:3.
This is the advantage of being tall and long. When Lian Dao shot, Carlos Delfino opened his hands, but he did not cause any interference to Lian Dao.
Lian Dao took the lead with a three-pointer to help the Knicks open the playoffs.
After Lian Dao scored a goal, the audience erupted into strong cheers.
Although Delfino spared no effort on the defensive end, this link is indeed not his strong point; Delfino is a typical intermediate player, without too many highlights, and there are no fatal flaws.
Delfino's three-pointers are not very stable, but his three-pointers at critical moments are very good, which impresses Lian Dao.
Conversely, the Bucks are still playing inside, but this time Millsap keeps going around the front to defend, making it particularly difficult for Bogut to catch the ball, and this time the Knicks outside players have already All in place.
Jennings didn't dare to pass the ball like before. Holiday's defensive quality was very high, and he kept putting pressure on Jennings on the defensive end.
Ersan-Inlyasova came to the outside to cover for Jennings, the Knicks changed defenses infinitely, and David Lee firmly blocked Jennings' left attack route in the interior.
Jennings found that the breakthrough route was blocked, so he hurriedly passed the ball to Ersan Yinlyasova on the outside.
Ersan Yinlyasova made a three-pointer directly in front of Holiday after receiving the ball.
Holiday has tried his best to take off and reach out to interfere, but his height is limited.
As a tall man of 2.08 meters, Ersan-Inlyasova's deterrent power of three-pointers from the outside is too great.
The basketball draws an arc, and then falls straight into the hoop.
The Bucks are very similar to the Magic. Except for the center, the other members of the Bucks can shoot three-pointers from the outside. They are also a four-star lineup.
It's just that the overall strength is far behind that of the Magic.
5:3.
The Knicks' defense has no problems. Although the Bucks also have 1 star and 4 shots, the Bucks' outside shooters are not stable enough for three-pointers.
D'Antoni also doesn't believe that the Bucks' perimeter will always be so accurate.
Holiday still handed the ball to Lian Dao.
Lian Dao met Carlos Delfino and John Salmons when he held the ball, and he passed the ball to Chandler who was open for a three-pointer at 45 degrees on the right.
This is Chandler's shooting hotspot, but this time Chandler was a little flustered.
"when!"
The basketball bounced high on the rim!
