, the fastest update NBA: the latest chapter of the No. 1 forward!
The matchup between the Knicks and the Heat, Lian Dao and James has also been fired up recently.
Although Lian Dao has always been called the strongest player in the league at the third position with James, the two have never played against each other in the playoffs.
And this time is the first head-to-head match between the two in the playoffs. Everyone wants to know who is stronger at the third position.
This season, both Lian Dao and James have become more mature, and Lian Dao has changed the most. In terms of some offensive choices, Lian Dao is more reasonable. Although the data has not improved much, the efficiency value has improved more than that of his rookie season.
James is more mature. During the running-in of the team, he is constantly changing and adapting to the team. The reason why the Heat made efforts in the later stage is because the Big Three finally found a relatively suitable point after running-in.
This time, it was indeed "the strongest small forward showdown" as the media hyped.
Although I don't know what this title thinks in the hearts of Anthony and Durant, but in the eyes of fans and the media, Lian Dao VS James is the strongest matchup at the third position.
Although the performances of both teams this year are very exciting, the Knicks also achieved the league's first record.
But in the prediction of the Eastern Conference Finals, a small number of people still believe that the Big Three of the Heat will advance.
Although judging from the team's paper strength, the two teams have their own strengths and are hard to distinguish, but the "Big Three" have given the Heat a lot of extra points.
The playoffs are at the end, what are you looking at?
It's very simple, what to look at is the dominance of the superstars, which team's superstars are more stable and stronger, and whoever is likely to go to the end.
In the competition of "superstars", the Knicks are indeed weaker than the current Heat, but in the competition of role players, the Knicks have completely defeated the Heat.
So in the end, more people think that the strength of the two teams is 50-50, and anyone may go to the end, but the scoring ability at critical moments, more fans tend to the Heat.
But many people also predict that this year's Eastern Conference Finals will likely be the same as last year, and the winner will only be determined after the tiebreaker.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs soon as this conclusion came out, it was immediately opposed by the New York media and the Miami media.
"In the regular season, we have a record of 3 wins and 1 loss against the Heat. I think that even if we play against the Heat again in the playoffs, it will at most give the Heat an extra chance. I think this should be the worst for the Knicks. The situation!" The New York Times unceremoniously expressed its opinion in the page news.
They believe that ESPN's prediction of the Knicks' strength is not accurate enough, and they obviously underestimated the Knicks' strength.
Of course, the local media in Miami didn't eat dry food, so they responded directly.
"Regular season record is pitifully low for the playoffs. The Heat have the most powerful team lineup in the league, and they cooperate with each other tacitly. The playoffs are even more indomitable. The Knicks will not become the Big Three A stumbling block on the way forward, believe us, we will only let the Knicks win one game at most!"
The interaction between the media of the two places instantly led to a scolding battle between the fans of the two places, and there were even random posts on the Internet.
What "Heat Big Three are invincible, kill the Knicks!".
There is also "The Knicks with two guns will make the Heat behave".
"Heat, this group of cuddling dogs, will never win!"...
The scolding battle on the Internet has never stopped for a moment, and of course this has also heated up the heat of this duel.
…
Wade read newspapers and online reports about the Heat, and he enjoyed the compliments, but ignored the attacks from black fans.
They have faced too many attacks this year, so when they saw the message attack, they found a way to just skip it without reading it.
However, the Big Three of the Heat are very confident, and they feel that they are very close to the O'Brien Cup.
"LeBron, how many games do you think we will play against the Knicks this year?" While browsing the news on the Internet, Wade asked James beside him.
"Hey, Dwyane, turn on a hotspot for me first!" James, who was pulling out his phone beside him, didn't directly answer Wade's question, but asked Wade to turn on a hotspot for his phone first.
Wade gave James a disdainful look, but then he opened a hot spot for him.
To say that James is definitely one of the most money-absorbing stars in the league, but sometimes frugality makes Wade a little ashamed.
"Huh, I'm connected to my brother, thank you, did you just say how many games?" James pondered for a while, and then said: "Four games!"
After hearing this answer, Wade was stunned for a moment.
Listen, is this a human language?
This is even more radical than the local media in Miami. The media in Miami only said that the promotion was 4:1. Good guy, it's 4:0 now.
"Hey, brother, don't underestimate the Knicks. You must know that we have suffered a lot from them." Wade was stunned for a moment, thinking that James was a little arrogant.
"I know, just kidding, sickle is not that easy to deal with, I have already prepared for a tough battle, to be honest, I don't know how many games we will play in this round of the series, but I think the winner will be It's us!"

After talking about James and Wade high-fiving, he set his sights on Twitter on his mobile phone.
…
The Miami Heat came to New York the next day.
They came to New York early to prepare for the Eastern Conference Finals with the Knicks in advance.
The Big Three of the Heat attended a press conference on the day they came to New York.
James was all smiles, and he didn't appear nervous when the big game came.
When the reporter asked him how he viewed the Eastern Conference Finals with the Knicks.
James smiled and said: "The Knicks are no different from the opponents we have played against, because we treat every opponent with all our strength. I am looking forward to the Eastern Conference finals!"
James' answer can be regarded as watertight, but the meaning conveyed in the words is not what it appears on the surface.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYou must know that in the playoffs, the two teams that played against the Heat have already been defeated by them.
What this means is that the final outcome of the Knicks will be the same as the teams that the Heat have played against.
But media reporters are obviously not satisfied with James' answer.
This answer is too perfunctory and tactful. These reporters feel that it is not easy to operate.
Immediately, they turned their attention to Dragon King Bosh.
"Chris, do you think you guys can beat the Knicks who made it to the Eastern Conference Finals in two years?"
"Of course there is no problem. I am very confident in our own strength!" Chris Bosh has never been so excited like today. If he were in the Raptors, he would have struggled to reach the playoffs, let alone the Eastern Conference Finals.
Therefore, Bosh, who stood on the stage of the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time, immediately felt high-spirited, and his excellent performance in the last round also gave him infinite confidence.
"With all due respect, your record against the Knicks in the regular season is not outstanding. Why do you have such strong confidence in the team now?"
After the reporter heard Bosh's reply, he immediately felt that there was something to be dug out, so he immediately pursued the victory and asked.
Reporters have always been watching the excitement and not taking too much trouble, and all kinds of traps are ambush in their interviews, just to deliberately create troubles and create focus before the game.
Before the game starts, the more topics that are created, the more attention can be drawn, and the media, such as them, can have more material to dig.
"Hey, Miss Reporter, as you said, it's just the regular season, and we are more in the process of adjusting the lineup. Now our lineup has been completely adjusted. Our current strength is not the same as before."
"You must know that the Knicks didn't take much advantage of us who were short of major generals in the regular season!" Chris Bosh shrugged intentionally, expressing that he would not cut it.
The reporters at the scene were very grateful to Bosh for his information, and now they especially want to know what Lian Dao thinks about it.
The reporter still wants to jump into the dispute between the Heat and the Knicks players.
"Don't worry, we will prove ourselves!"
James and Wade also came together and said.
At this time, James saw Bosh saying this, and he also knew that he could no longer get along with him, so he simply stood in line with Bosh.
"The three of us teamed up this season will definitely become the biggest opponent of the Knicks!" Wade said on the side.
After the Heat's players answered the questions, they walked out of the press conference.
