FMVP is hard to support itself, Brunson 23+6+6, the Celtics fell to the ground, the two major sects in the Eastern Conference fought to the death

In the NBA regular season this season, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics were outstanding in the Eastern Conference and had already locked in the top two in the standings. Many fans believed that the two strong players would meet in the Eastern Conference Finals, but their performance in the playoffs surprised all fans. The Cavaliers lost 1-4 to the Pacers in the semi-finals, and the defending champion Celtics also ended in the 2-3 desperation after the first five games.

On this match day, the Celtics rushed to New York again to challenge the Knicks at Madison Square Garden. Only the defending champion in this game, Jaylen Brown, the most valuable player in the finals, performed normally, but he could not lead his teammates who were sleepwalking together. The Knicks, who played at home, also took the lead early, easily won 119-81, and advanced to the division finals with his head high!

After all, if the Celtics win another game, the series will be held in Boston with a life-and-death tiebreak finals. At that time, it will be more difficult for the Knicks to advance smoothly.

[Match Review]

First game, the Celtics were able to survive at home with the remnants of the team. FMVP Jaylen Brown made an indelible contribution. In this game, he was still the player with the best performance of the defending champion. While being strictly guarded, he still contributed 20 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. However, the Knicks' targeted defense also made Jaylen Brown pay the price of 7 mistakes.

But in this life-and-death battle, except for Jaylen Brown, the Celtics' major scoring points were all silent. White, who went crazy on the court, only returned 8 points in 11 attempts in this game, and the champion guard Holiday only made 1 of 8 shots, and Porzingis only scored 4 points, which is also the fundamental reason for the Celtics' defeat and elimination.

The Knicks started the five Tigers at home in this game. Core guard Brunson contributed 23 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists with 14 shots. Under his analysis, the Knicks scored in double-digit points in this game, and the starting points all reached double digits.

The inside core Towns handed over a double-double of 21 points and 12 rebounds, and the all-round king Hart also played a gorgeous personal data of 10+11+11. While Anunobi completed the defensive task well, his offensive performance was also remarkable. He filled the data bar with 23+9+2+2+2. The performance of all players made this game lose the suspense of the victory or defeat early.

With the final whistle of this game, the Knicks advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals with their heads held high. They will compete with the Pacers for a ticket to the finals. These two teams were teased by many fans as two major sects. The Pacers have always insisted on the rotation of ten or even twelve people, and the Knicks rely more on the performance of the starting five tigers. Who can win the Eastern Conference Finals and set foot on the stage of the finals? Let's wait and see.
