At this time last year, the New Yorkers were still frowning. Just a year later, the sky of Big Apple City was already shining brightly. After an enviable draft pick, the combination of Wu Huang and Iguodala has become one of the best backcourt combinations in the league. The growth of young players in the team is obvious to all. They may be able to achieve some results this year. Even after the first game of the playoffs, New York fans and Wu Huang's 60e fans have never doubted this idea.

In the last game, the Knicks lost a big away score, and David Lee and Channing Fry also attracted a lot of criticism after the game. Such criticism makes sense. At that time, the Hawks' three major penalty area leaders Josh Smith, Al Horford and Zaza Pachulia combined to grab 30 rebounds; the Knicks and Wu Huangcai caught a total of 36 rebounds, of which David Lee and Fry had only 7 and 4 rebounds.

What's worse is that the Hawks are a team that is good at counterattacking on the spot. If David Lee and Fry can only get such a few rebounds per game, D'Antoni might as well remove Fry and Harrington, who has better mobility, take over. It can be said that if David Lee and Fry maintain such rebounding level in the second game, the Knicks' prospects will be in danger, and the same is true for the Knicks' prospects.

For this issue, D'Antoni's choice is to keep his troops in a standstill. After all, everyone's performance in the first game was not good, and it would be helpful to the just-beginning series. David Lee and Fry will continue to play as their qualifiers today. Their roles are to protect rebounds and serve as outside shooting points, and actively participate in fast breaks. If the bench gang led by Harrington can be properly connected, coupled with Wu Huang's super strong personal ability, it is expected to equalize the away game.

When espn looked forward to this group of Eastern Conference series before the game, he commented on David Lee: "He may not hand in extremely impressive offensive data, but he must use stable rebounds and mid-range shots to help the team advance. The 'wrestling' with Horford, Josh and others will not be easy." If the Knicks want to go further in the playoffs and complete the leap from the bottom of the division to the semi-finals, they must rely on David Lee and other insiders to perform more stably.

April 20. With the large-scale overturn in the first round of the playoffs, the second game in the first round of the playoffs officially started. Today, the Knicks will challenge the balanced and powerful Atlanta Hawks again.

Wu Huang did not answer many questions from reporters at the pre-match press conference, but he still expressed confidence in winning the game: "This is undoubtedly. We have the strength to defeat any team, and a loss will not shake our confidence. We will strive to play the best self tonight tonight."

Before the game, D'Antoni did not make much tactical arrangements. They still played the same way as they did in the first game today. The last loss was not a tactical issue, but the players' personal strength was not played out, so there is no need for tactical changes for the time being.

Overall, the Knicks still have to play more high-level covers today so that Wu Huang can break through to the hinterland to create pass opportunities. High-level pick-and-roll cooperation and blocking and cutting cooperation on both sides are of course indispensable. These are the Knicks' main offensive methods this season.

If you have the chance, Wu Huang will try to feed his teammates the ball and let them play singles, but this will determine whether to implement it based on the game situation and their status. In fact, to put it bluntly, the Knicks' routine is still the regular season, and they still have to rely on Wu Huang's on-the-spot performance to decide how to play in the game.

It was 9:00 p.m. The Knicks players started entering the court. When the 20,000 Atlanta fans who had already entered the stadium saw the Knicks players walking through the player passage, they immediately booed at them, mixed with a lot of swear words, and waves of unbearable noise flew into the Knicks players' ears.

"They are so uncivilized!" Kroo Moretz and his four brothers sat in the front row, and felt very upset when he heard many vicious attacks pointing at Emperor Wu.

"He won't care. You see, his expression has not changed at all, which is nothing to him." Brandon explained softly to his sister, but his tone seemed to be more like a woman than Collo Moretz.

Wu Huang said that he didn't care, but when he entered the market, he brought his own brand of earbuds and players, and the music of the little singer was playing in his ears, so he couldn't hear the insulting voices that were insulting him. By the way, he could also advertise his products. Even Taylor Swift couldn't help but praise him for his beautiful work in front of the TV. He was so smart!

The players in the Knicks, no matter what brand of headphones and players they used before, now they have to be replaced by the brand Wu Huang invested in, otherwise they will not give him the boss face. Of course, these products must be given for free, and it would be bad to force buying and selling, but if the gift is not used, it will really be a shame.

Of course, no one in the team dared not to give Wu Huang a face. The entire Knicks team was using Hefeiman's headphones and mp3 at this time, which directly led to Hefeiman's sales in the New York area reaching the top spot in the first quarter of 2010. This is the embodiment of the star effect.

But during the game, he couldn't bring his headphones. When Wu Huang warmed up, he put his equipment into his backpack. Listening to the booing of all the fans, he felt unhappy. His shots during warm-up were almost every shot!

"Warm up as fierce as a tiger, start 0/5!" Atlanta fans imitated Wu Huang's tone of mocking others. Twenty thousand people shouted at him together, and immediately made him miss three consecutive goals.

t-n-t will broadcast the game live today, and Charles Barkley laughed in the live broadcast seat: "Atlanta fans are particularly targeting Hugo in these two games, because he not only scores very high, but also has amazing efficiency, and can be regarded as the most efficient offensive player in the league."

Kenny Smith said: "Yes, the more booing and sarcastic sounds, the more it shows how afraid of you are for the visiting fans. Whether the Knicks can win today is still on Hugo. If he can regain his regular season against the Hawks, then he can activate his teammates and the Knicks have a chance to defeat the Hawks."

Knicks lineup: Wu Huang, Iguodala, Garlinari, Channing Fry, David Lee.

Hawks lineup: Mike Bibby, Joe Johnson, Marvin Williams, Josh Smith, Al Horford.

At the opening jump, David Lee lost to Josh Smith again.

In these two games, the Eagles were responsible for jumping the ball. David Lee faced this star who was a top ten in the league, and there was no chance of winning.

Bibi passed the ball through half and immediately handed it over to Josh, who was supporting him at a high position.

The Eagles are not afraid of Wu Huang's intercepting the ball. Bibi's basic skills are very solid. Even if Wu Huang is the newly released steal king. It is not easy for him to cut off the White Devil's ball, but Wu Huang can use his oppressive defense to interfere with Bibi's organizational dispatch, so the latter simply handed over the ball in advance. There are many people in the Eagles who can control the ball.

Joe Johnson immediately used Horford's unball cover to catch the ball. Iguodala was blocked by Horford, and Garlinari hurried over to change defense, but was easily broken by the Hawks with a fake move.

The Knicks' defensive formation was in a mess in an instant. Josh rushed to the basket and almost no one defended it. He received a pass and dunked with two points.

This offense is a direct reflection of the gap in strength between the two teams. A simple performance of small-scale cooperation + personal ability of the Eagles can often make the Knicks in a mess. It seems that they cannot help the Knicks become a league-level defensive strong team by relying on two top defenders alone.

"My!" Fry was quite guilty of this defense. He was still a little nervous today. In fact, his assisted defense was pretty good. This time, it was an accident and a test for him. If he got back into the state of the previous game because of a mistake in the opening game, it would not be a good thing for him and the Knicks.

Emperor Wu quickly stepped forward and patted his shoulder. It didn't matter, "It's okay, it's just a mistake, don't take it to heart. Everyone has times when they make mistakes, forget him quickly." Of course, he was cursing in his heart: "What a waste. I missed someone for me as soon as I came up, and I ggled again today."

Channing Fry felt the kindness of the team boss in his heart, and his gratitude was beyond words.

The Knicks turned to the offense. Wu Huang and David Lee performed pick-and-roll in high positions and immediately encountered double teams that were exactly the same as in the last game.

David Lee quickly went as he went, but Wu Huang had no chance to pass the ball, which shows that the Eagles' double-teams were obviously trained. This is a double-team specially designed for him.

Fry suddenly ran back and rushed to the outside of the weak side three-point line. Garlinari, who was originally on the outside, cut into the basket. This is how the Knicks responded.

Emperor Wu passed the basketball to Fry on the outside. Josh Smith's defense was only one step slower, and Fry, who was tall and long, took decisive action...

Channing Fry's height and wingspan are outstanding. As long as Josh is one step slower, it will be difficult to block his shot. Whether he can make it depends on his feel. Fry, who just received encouragement from Wu Huang, felt obviously good at this time, and this goal was hollowed into the net!

D'Antoni slapped twice on the sidelines. How well the Knicks players feel at the beginning is an important thing for them. Now he scored three-pointers in the first ball, and it was not Wu Huang's shot, which is definitely a good sign.

Wu Huang also knew that if he was in good condition, he could indeed drive the whole team with his own offense. But if his teammates felt good and could bloom more at the beginning, this is the real order of winning. He is now willing to feed his teammates because he is eager to win a playoff game.

At the beginning of the game, the Hawks had a strong offensive execution. Bibby then got a mid-range shot and Joe Johnson also made a three-pointer. But then, the Knicks began to take the initiative. Although their defense could not make the Hawks players feel uncomfortable, their shooting felt excellent. Fry scored two three-pointers at the beginning, and then Gallinari and David Lee made mid-range shots. When Iguodala cut the basket and successfully scored a three-pointer, the first quarter only started three minutes, and the Knicks led the Hawks 13:7.

At 8 minutes and 44 seconds in the first quarter, Larry Drew took the lead in requesting a timeout.

The Knicks' offense at the opening stage was too fierce. If they continued to play like this, they couldn't keep up with the rhythm in minutes, and the rhythm was not right. This was completely the New Yorker's offensive rhythm.

D'Antoni was very cunning. The Knicks' defense seemed to be bad, but their defensive choices were very good. The Hawks players shot at mid-range and long distances, and they never hit the basket except for the dunk that Josh Smith opened the game.

But Larry Drew did not notice this. Instead, he felt that the team's offensive choice was good. The players naturally had to shoot when they had opportunities on the outside. His timeout was to strengthen the team's defense. Today, the Knicks players felt good, and they could no longer put all their troops on Wu Huang.

Wu Huang did not shoot once after the opening. Because as long as he held the ball near the three-point line, the Eagles would have two players around to press, but he contributed three assists in these three points, and the Eagles' double defense finally paid the price.

After the game started again, the Eagles did not dare to double-team Wu Huang so unscrupulously, and restored their defensive strategy in the last game, Bibi kept using his body and small movements to interfere with him in close combat. This was to affect his shooting. If Wu Huang took a breakthrough, he could also use these small tricks to gain time for his teammates to defend.

After the first game, Wu Huang began to think about countermeasures. In fact, he thought about how to deal with Bibi's defense in the second half of the first game, but the referee at that time did not give him face and his foul was not successful.

The Eagles themselves also know that Bibi's defense can be used at most at home. When the Knicks' home court is at home, such defense will probably be sent off if it is less than half of the game. However, it is enough to be used at home. As long as the Eagles can use this method to limit Wu Huang's offense and let themselves go to New York with a 2:0 score, they will be sure to eliminate the Knicks.

Wu Huang now thinks that it is a good thing that the referee did not show a technical foul after he was broken by Bibi. This gives the Knicks room for hype after the game. The New York media kept bombarding the referee for discrimination against Chinese players, and also took out the fact that the Little Giant was targeted by the referee in the Rockets, and he just brought up a wrong penalty to racial discrimination.

Chinese media, even Japanese and Korean media, have been fueling the fire, which makes the league feel that the situation has expanded a bit. Racial discrimination has been a very sensitive word in all fields in the past two years. There is no need to say much about the importance of the Asian market, so the emotions of Asian fans must be treated with caution. In this game, the league has significantly strengthened the penalty standard.

Emperor Wu took Bibi's small movement and suddenly exerted his strength in half, and pounced on Josh Smith, who was assisting in defense, and maliciously rushed towards the opponent's knee. No one expected that if he was compacted by Emperor Wu, the consequences could be big or small, and it might be possible to end the other person's knee.

Emperor Wu and Josh Smith screamed one after another. The former was of course pretending, but the latter jumped up on the spot with one foot, covering his right knee and screaming!

"What happened?" Many fans didn't see it. When Wu Huang threw himself down, he pressed his arm over Josh's right knee. It was not strong at all. Nearby, it was either ligaments or ligaments. This is one of the most likely places for players to have major injuries.

Fortunately, Emperor Wu did not maliciously in the last moment, and even stopped a little. He didn't want to destroy others, and the new eagle king had never offended him.

The referee first called Bibi to push someone for a foul, and then suspended the game. Josh seemed to be injured?

Atlanta fans were stunned on the spot at this moment. They had no idea what happened at that moment. No one was going to swear at Emperor Wu.

As for the referee's whistle, it is naturally a normal penalty. Of course, if it was yesterday, this defense might not be a foul. This proves that today's game is indeed different from yesterday's penalty scale.

The scene just now was quickly played back on the big screen on the scene, but the Atlanta fans still couldn't see any malicious elements of Emperor Wu. Instead, they saw the scene of him being pushed down by Bibi with a look of pain, and then they just hit Josh's leg who came forward to assist in defense. This was a complete coincidence.

Josh jumped on the spot several times, and the guy's body was really speechless. He limped on the field for less than a minute before he recovered, and he didn't even need to take a break after the court.

"It's okay, I didn't mean it." Emperor Wu is a typical cat crying rat.

"It's okay, thank you!" Josh actually replied to him, and Emperor Wu was stunned when he heard this. This is a typical case of being sold and helping to count the money.

After this attack, Emperor Wu felt a little amused. In addition to being happy to find the referee's penalty standard today, the opponent's defense method no longer works for him. Under this normal penalty standard, he was sure to let Bibi stay on the court for less than 20 minutes.

The development of the game was indeed as he expected. If Bibi wanted to defend him, he could only use this kind of side-by-side method. However, in front of a cunning fox, such a small method was not enough. Before he could hold on until halfway through the first quarter, he received a second foul on Wu Huang and had to go off and rest.

Larry Drew had no choice but to replace Jamal Crawford to play No. 1 position. He dared not use the young Jeff Teague to play against Wu Huang. This young man was exposed to shit in the regular season. However, when Crawford met Wu Huang, he also had no good results. His various fancy dribbling balls came to Wu Huang, just like a street performer who met a top-class magician, who would not eat your tricks at all.

Emperor Wu just watched Crawford go on luck, looking like you can do it if you have the ability, but if you want to break through me, there is no way to go.

Crawford's threat lies in his breakthrough. If he only relies on shooting, Wu Huang is not afraid that he can shoot himself to death, and his arm span does not have any impact on Crawford's shooting.

Larry Drew was very distressed. When Crawford was on the court with the main team, if he controlled the ball, it would seriously affect the team's offensive rhythm, because when he got the ball, there would be no option to pass the ball at all. The other four people could only watch him play there. This is a tactic of farting?
