The biggest difference between scores is 41 points, and the defending champion is defeated! The Knicks entered the Eastern Conference Final. Can they win the cup this time?

Dear Tang, the words are like faces when you meet. First of all, congratulations on entering the Eastern Conference Finals, but my mind continued to see the days when I played with you in the Western Conference Finals last year.

Now Randall and I have also entered the Western Conference Finals, and you have entered the Eastern Conference Finals. So that deal is a win-win situation. Our whole team misses you very much. If we can meet in the finals, it will definitely be the most wonderful thing - Edwards. Before the start of the playoffs, who would have thought that the two powerful teams in the East, Cavaliers and Celtics, could not enter the Eastern Conference Finals? Before that, the curse of the defending champion's difficulty in breaking through the second round had lasted for six years, and today it turned into seven years with the Celtics' elimination. In the last game, the Celtics were taken away by their opponents for a victory. After the suspense of the series continued, the Knicks maintained absolute suppression as soon as they came on the court today. In just one short quarter of the second quarter, the Knicks played a 38-17 offensive wave, and by this time the game had actually lost the suspense. In the third quarter, the score difference once reached 41 points. It is worth mentioning that when the Knicks led 27 points in the first half, this was actually the first time they achieved a half-time lead in this round of the series. Didn’t they expect it to be? In the third quarter, Jaylen Brown left the court after six fouls. The last game of the single savior became a lonely army today. Brown scored 20 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 7 turnovers and 6 fouls throughout the game, ending the season in a lonely way. It is no exaggeration to say that this may be the last game of Jaylen Brown's Celtic career. Even, it is most likely that this Celtics' last game, because the huge salary pressure has put this team in disintegration during the offseason. But when it comes to the Knicks, it's also ruthless. When the game was 30+ in hand and the victory was sure to be in hand, and the entire arena was celebrating its advance to the Eastern Conference Finals, Thibodeau still allowed the main players to play on the court. Even on the sidelines he frowned, his hands wrapped around him, complaining that the players were not working hard enough. I have to say that Thibodeau really doesn't treat players as human beings... In the end, the Knicks were all soldiers, four of them beat the Celtics 119-81, and advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals with a score of 4-2 in the series. This is their second finals after 24 years. Coincidentally, the Knicks' Eastern Conference Finals opponents in the past three times were Pacers, and now it's the case. What's more coincidental is that Brunson and Halliburton performed on the WWE stage together in the offseason last year, and now the two will face a head-on battle on the Eastern Conference Finals stage. Looking back at the series between the Celtics and the Knicks, behind the Celtics' crash, the hidden dangers of over-investment began to emerge. This team spent a lot of money before, and although they won the championship as they wish, their road to defending the title is full of thorns. Worse, now facing disintegration. Is a championship enough? It may be a dream for many stars, but it is obviously not proportional to the investment for the Celtics management.

In fact, the Knicks are the same, the difference is that their operations are more radical. The Nets got Bridges for a high price to supplement the wing; Randle, Divincenzo and the first round, got Towns to supplement the inside. The contract for Thibodeau is also the top-notch industry. Fortunately, Brunson took the initiative to give up his super maximum salary of 269 million in five years to help the team make room. Then the Knicks spent 212.5 million yuan to keep Anunobi. After these operations, they are now. The Celtics fall, and if the Nuggets are eliminated by the Thunder, it means that the league will enter a new era of championships. New York has not reached the championship trophy since the 1969-70 season. More than fifty years have passed, the Knicks are approaching the championship trophy again. This time, can they get what they want?
