This game of the Knicks is really difficult! 0-2 Can you turn the tables even if you fall behind? Only 5 times have happened in history

The plot of the NBA Eastern Conference Finals suddenly changed. After the Knicks lost two home games, they fell behind the Pacers 0-2 and were on the verge of despair.

Review these two games first. The Knicksbury has many advantages. He holds a good deck of cards but fails to use them properly, which leads to a mess. It is really "a good hand of cards is played badly." In the first game, with 26 seconds left before the end of the game, the Knicks still led by 1 point. Although it can't be said to be "stable"? But the chance is great. As a result, the Pacers relied on their tenacious tenacity to turn the situation around in overtime and won the victory with a score of 138-135.

I didn't expect that they could handle the second game. At the beginning of the game, the Knicks got into the state very quickly, and Brunson felt hot and led the team to win the first quarter 26-24. In the second quarter, the Pacers focused on strengthening the defensive system. Halliburton was a god of war with full fire, which put huge pressure on the opponent. The Knicks leaned on Bridges' singles to support him. After the half-time game ended, the Knicks still maintained a three-point lead. In the second half, Siakam directly activated the "Kill God Mode", and he could not defend himself from the inside and outside shots. In the third quarter, the Pacers overtook the score 32-29. In the final quarter, both sides were red in their eyes, and the Pacers bench Shepard and other players also stood up. Brunson tried his best on the Knicks, but he still had a bad breath and lost the game 109-114.

To be honest, the Knicks are not completely unable to beat the data. Brunson is simply possessed by a "God of War". He averaged 39.5 points and 8 assists per game in two games, with a shooting percentage of 53.8%. He carried the team forward alone. But basketball is a five-person sport. Towns is like a "sleepwalking" on the court. His offense is unstable and his defense is missing. The plus or negative value is scary. Not to mention the bench, compared with the Pacers, it is simply "one heaven and one underground".

Let's look at the walker, that's really strong! The performance of core players such as Halliburton and Siakam is very steady, and role players can also stand up and score points at any time. The defensive end restricts the Knicks to a tight end. The team cooperates well and the execution of tactics is particularly resolute at critical moments. Moreover, the Pacers coach is well versed in checking and balancing his opponents, and several tactical adjustments have made the Knicks extremely uncomfortable.

The current situation of the Knicks is not an exaggeration to describe it as "a life-and-death death". Data shows that in the long history of the NBA playoffs, only 5 teams fell behind 0-2 at home but achieved a turnaround, with a success rate of only 13.5%. No team has achieved this feat so far in the division finals.

If the Knicks want to change their fate against the will of heaven, Brunson must continue to be "super god". Towns needs to recover as soon as possible, make achievements on both offense and defense, and players must also stand up and score points on the bench. Coach Thibodeau also needs to move seriously, his defensive strategy must be optimized, and his offense must find ways to open up the situation.

The Pacers are leading 2-0, but they cannot be careless. The Knicks certainly won't submit easily, and the subsequent game will inevitably be a fierce battle. The Pacers must maintain the team form, give full play to their advantages, and strive to win the series in one go.
