Chapter 453 Winner and Loser! Aim for the Best Record in History!
On the 26th, Quicken Loans Arena.
Compared with whether Anthony can lead the Cavaliers to turn around in the new season, public opinion is generally most concerned about whether the Knicks can create the best start record in the history of the four major North American leagues.
Because after defeating the Bobcats, the Knicks' winning streak at the start of the new season has come to 17 games!
"It's a pity. If this season is not a shrinking season, I think it is entirely possible for the Knicks to break the Bulls' record of 72 wins and 10 losses!" Barkley said with a little regret before the game.
Kenny Smith added: "Last season, the Knicks had already played 69 wins and 13 losses. Unfortunately, even if the Knicks win all games this season, they can only be 66 wins and 0 losses."
"And since the new season, the Knicks have scored more than 100 points in every game. They are the best-looking team in the league and the most powerful offensive team!" Barkley said.
"Yes, the 'Fried Chicken Brothers' are too selfless to play, and someone from the Knicks will stand up in every game, so I think this is why everyone agrees that the 'Fried Chicken Brothers' are stronger than the OK combination." Ken Nismith said.
O'Neill on the side listened to Kenny Smith and Barkley's words, not to mention how uncomfortable it was. "Fried Chicken Brothers" refers to Paul and Lin Yi. Chinese fans call Paul and Lin Yi the "404 combination". However, the American media prefers to refer to Lin Yi and Paul as 'fried chicken brothers'.
This is because Paul once said in an interview that he agreed to join the Knicks because Lin Yi promised to take him to eat different flavors of fried chicken all over the world. Although everyone knew that Paul was joking, but since then , "Fried Chicken Brothers" became the American version of the nickname of Paul and Lin Yi.
O'Neal actually wanted to refute Barkley and Smith, but...
"Great Shaq never haggles!"
O'Neill comforted himself in this way.
...
In the society, I, Gua, don't talk too much. Under the leadership of "Melon" Anthony, don't tell me, the Cavaliers really held the Knicks tonight.
But it's just holding back... because unless Anthony can also score 86 points, it will be too difficult for the Cavaliers to snipe the Knicks, whose morale has reached its peak.
Cleveland has fallen in love with basketball again. This is what Stern wants to see. Although the president has never liked Anthony, this season's Anthony is indeed much lower-key than before.
But "melon" can not keep a low profile! Once he wanted to hang out with JR, but he drove for a long time to find it... In the end, the two had to buy a few bottles of beer at a convenience store, and then went to Anthony's house to chat for a long time.
Lin Yi thinks that Anthony is simply too cute, because in this game relying on Anthony's brave performance, the Cavaliers have been only about 10 points behind the Knicks. In this way, Lin Yi has an excuse to play in the fourth quarter.
It's not that the Knicks didn't deliberately release water tonight, but that the Cavaliers played really well.
The Knicks really opened up the game in the middle of the fourth quarter. When JR was passing the ball, he passed the ball directly to Billups. Maybe JR thought Billups was his teammate... ...
The big heart was not soft, and while making a fast-break three-pointer, Billups also gave JR a thumbs up.
However, JR's performance was not over. Next, Anthony made Green's foul and went to the free throw line. JR Smith secretly untied Lin Yi's shoelace while grabbing a rebound...
The on-duty referee David Sokis discovered this scene and directly expelled JR Smith.
Anthony looked up at the sky... After these two waves of JR's showy operations, the Cavaliers had no fighting spirit, and the Knicks took the game away in the second half of the fourth quarter.
In the end, the score of this game was 119 to 98. The Knicks won the 18th game in the new season. Lin Yi finally scored a 30+ triple-double with 30 points, 18 rebounds, and 12 assists.
Paul, who was always intercepted and assisted by Lin Yi, also scored 28 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists.
On the Cavaliers' side, "Melo" Anthony scored 45 points in the air. Fortunately, melon ushered in a new life in Cleveland, and the Cavaliers fans gave him applause after the game.
This season, Cavaliers fans think that "Anthony did his best" and "it was his teammates who dragged Anthony down in the CBA."
Speaking of it, this is the first time in Anthony's career that he has been losing all the time and still gets people's praise. I have to say that James is indeed righteous. This is called giving me all the infamy and giving all the benefits to my brother!
After the game, the reporters’ focus was on the Knicks’ 18-game winning streak, which is already the best start in NBA history. Now, every time the Knicks win a game, they will set a new record. The best start of the 20-game winning streak, the Knicks are only two games away.
You must know that the best start in the history of the four major leagues in North America was created by the American Professional Baseball League 127 years ago. This is no longer an ancient record. This is a prehistoric record!
"Lin, you guys have been on a winning streak now, can you share your secrets of winning all the time?"
Facing the reporter's question, Lin Yi pondered for a few seconds before replying: "Relax more, train more, eat less snacks and sleep more!"
Lin Yi borrowed a famous saying from Teacher Zeng in the love apartment. Lin Yi didn't want to prevaricate the reporters, but Nix was really relaxed now.
When the Warriors got 73 wins and 9 losses in the future, they didn't believe that they could break the Bulls' record for the best record in history. With the Knicks' current lineup structure and D'Antoni's tactics, it is not unbelievable that they have a good record in the regular season.
...
And on the night when the Knicks defeated the Cavaliers, in Miami, my emperor was also watching the Knicks.
Because the Knicks will challenge the Heat in Miami on the 28th, the Heat have played 14 wins and 4 losses so far in the new season, which is much better than last year.
In the first 18 games of the new season, James averaged 28.4 points, 7.7 rebounds and 7.1 assists per game, and was able to score 1.9 three-pointers per game with a 38.7% three-point shooting rate.
Among the "normal and accurate" crowd, James' three-point shooting rate is already quite good.
To say that the Heat don't care about the Knicks can only be what Heat coach Spoelstra told the reporters. If the Heat don't pay attention to the Knicks, is James spending a summer practicing three-pointers just to play the Magic?
You must know that the Magic this season is at most a playoff team. Turkoglu's state has declined seriously.
The Heat is still the Knicks' confidant this season. Neither Lin Yi nor D'Antoni was dazzled by the winning streak. If the Knicks want to defend their title, they must pass the Heat. Last year, the Knicks relied on chains to limit the Heat , But that doesn't mean the Heat won't make adjustments.
The Heat's ambition is not just to be a strong team in the East. Their goal is the same as that of the Knicks, so both sides attach great importance to this game.
As for the winning streak, compared with the championship, the regular season record, especially the regular season record in the shrinking season, is really meaningless.
Competitive sports have always been winners and losers!
