537. The opponent in the next round

As most people predicted before the start of the series between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Brooklyn Nets, the Cleveland Cavaliers finally defeated the Brooklyn Nets by a huge advantage of 4:0 and successfully entered the second round of the playoffs!

For the Cleveland Cavaliers, it is of course a great thing to be able to play so smoothly in the first round. Because after sweeping away opponent Brooklyn Nets with a 4-0 score, the Cleveland Cavaliers will get enough rest time before the second round begins.

And these rest time is enough for the Cleveland Cavaliers, who have not adjusted their rest at the end of the regular season, so that they can meet their opponents in the next game in a better state.

Although their opponents in the next round, the Eastern Conference semi-finals, after the Cleveland Cavaliers eliminated the Brooklyn Nets, have not yet been released.

Because on the other side, although the New York Knicks are currently ahead of the Atlanta Hawks in total score, they still have not been able to qualify at this time because they have not played the fourth game.

In this case, the Cleveland Cavaliers can take the lead in taking a rest. This will of course be of great help to their performance in the next game.

Because in this way, they can get more rest time than the New York Knicks. This will of course help them perform in the next round of the series.

And after defeating the Brooklyn Nets with a total score of 4:0, the Cleveland Cavaliers players can finally relax at this time.

They will set off to return to Cleveland shortly after the fourth game. If nothing unexpected happens in the second round, the New York Knicks and Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott can also make preparations before returning to Cleveland.

Although in the past games, the Cleveland Cavaliers' record for the New York Knicks in Wu Dawei's era was more than more wins or less. Even so, as the team's head coach, Byron Scott, still dared not take it lightly.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have suffered many injuries this season, so they have fallen to such a position at this time. In this case, if Byron Scott, as the team's head coach, still takes his opponent lightly, it is very likely to cause a disaster. Moreover, this season, the New York Knicks have made great progress. They once ranked first in the league when the regular season just started. However, due to some weak performances later, they gradually fell to the second place in the Eastern Conference.

But even so, the New York Knicks are still a team that cannot be underestimated. There is a reason why their team's combat effectiveness has improved significantly this season. The personal status of the stars in the team has reached their peak, which is also one of the factors.

Cameron Anthony and JR Smith's performance this season has reached its peak, and the stars' personal combat effectiveness has greatly improved. This is an important reason for the New York Knicks' record this year!

However, this is also an important reason why the New York Knicks head coach Mike Woodson is still criticized for having such an outstanding record this season.

Because in the eyes of most people, as the team's head coach, he has not played any role at all. This is also an important reason why the New York Knicks declined in the second half of the season.

After all, the NBA regular season is a very long season, so it is very normal for players to have ups and downs in the season. After all, players are all humans rather than machines, and who will not feel tired as humans?

So under such a situation, when Cameron Anthony, JR Smith and others declined, the New York Knicks' record slowly declined.

This is what Mike Woodson was criticized because he could not lead the team to continue to perform like before under such circumstances.

The lack of tactics has made Mike Woodson highly criticized, even though he led the New York Knicks to the second place in the regular season at this time, and is currently leading their opponent, Atlanta Hawks with a 3-0 advantage in the playoffs.

Although the New York Knicks are currently leading their opponent Atlanta Hawks with a huge advantage in the first round of the series, the dissatisfaction of Mike Woodson in New York is also coming one after another.

It’s just that after Wu Dawei helped him get hatred during that period, Mike Woodson was a little better. Now, when the Brooklyn Nets were eliminated, it is obvious that the current focus of New York media is naturally to return to the New York Knicks, which are still in the game.

Because the first round of the New York Knicks is not over yet, it will naturally continue to attract the attention of New York fans and reporters. Naturally, as the head coach of the New York Knicks, Mike Woodson, is still leading the team to win. However, the New York Knicks still continued their weak performance at the end of the regular season in the playoffs.

Although they are indeed ahead of the Atlanta Hawks by a 3-0 advantage, they will always slowly wipe out the advantage in the second half after they have established an advantage in the first half...

This situation has not happened just once. Since the first game of the playoffs, the New York Knicks have been showing signs of a collapse in the final quarter. Every time it makes New York fans and reporters feel frightened. Although the Atlantas did not finally turn the game back, this still makes New Yorkers feel annoyed.

Of course, this is what Mike Woodson is criticized. And obviously if he cannot solve such a problem, then his days of being criticized by the media will not end like this.

Because the media have always liked the existence of picking bones in eggs, especially not long ago, the Brooklyn Nets only gave the Cleveland Cavaliers a pale ending of 0:4.

And if the New York Knicks win in the first round of the game, as long as they defeat the Atlanta Hawks, they will face the Cleveland Cavaliers led by Wu Dawei.

Although the New York media are of course very confident about their team, even so, they will not be willing to understand that the team will always face a collapse in the second half of the game!

No one would like to like this feeling. So at this time, because Mike Woodson has been unable to solve such a problem for a long time, the New York media, who were originally a little anxious, naturally could not accept such a fact at this time.

Because everyone who sees the performance of the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round can know that if the New York Knicks still look like they always collapse in the second half after entering the second round of the game, then they will definitely become in danger in the second round of the game!

Because under such a situation, they simply cannot defeat such a team that performs so well and strongly! Moreover, they are not only unable to defeat such a Cleveland Cavaliers, but they are also likely to be defeated by the team led by Wu Dawei in the second round of the game!

After watching the first round of the game, you know how good the Cleveland Cavaliers will be under Wu Dawei's leadership, which will seize the opponent's mistakes and counterattack! If the New York Knicks leave too many opportunities for the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the New York Knicks' weak performance in the second half, it will only take a minute to break up by the Cleveland Cavaliers.

That's why the New York media are so fiercely criticizing Mike Woodson for being helpless about the weakness of the New York Knicks in the second half.

Because if the New York Knicks still cannot solve such a problem before entering the second round of the game, then it would be a dream thing if they want to enter the Eastern Conference finals!

After entering the playoffs, the Cleveland Cavaliers are playing better and better, while the New York Knicks are on the decline... This is naturally not good news for a team.

The Brooklyn Nets are an example, and if the New York Knicks don't want to be the next Brooklyn Nets, then they naturally have to make adjustments as soon as possible from now on.

If the game continues to play like this in the second round, then the New York Knicks may really stop going to the semi-finals of the Eastern Conference this season.

Moreover, the New York media believe that at this moment, the head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Byron Scott, must be studying this weakness of the New York Knicks!

So if it cannot be solved well at this time, it is not impossible for the New York Knicks to become the second-place Brooklyn Nets!
