4:1, the defending champion is out! Brunson raises his arms and shouts, the Knicks enter the Eastern Conference Finals again after 26 years

This season's NBA playoffs is destined to be an upset season! The second and third places in the Western Conference have all been eliminated, and the first-ranked Thunder still maintains the possibility of entering the finals! The situation in the East is even worse. The Cavaliers, the No. 1 in the East, were won 4:1 by the Pacers, and the defending champion Celtics, the situation in the series is in jeopardy.

The Celtics left all the main lineups of last season this season. The team wanted to defend their title. Although they were not so dominant in the regular season, they also achieved 61 wins and were the third best in the league. In the playoffs, the team also won the Magic 4:1, but when they came to the Eastern Conference semi-finals, they encountered big trouble!

At present, in the Eastern Conference semi-finals, the Celtics lag behind the Knicks by 2:3. More importantly, the team's core Tatum is injured and will not return this season. The Celtics need to use the remaining lineup to win 2 games in a row, including a Knicks' home court, which is very difficult!

Knicks have grown very fast this season, especially after introducing Towns and Bridges. Although their rotation system still has problems, in terms of starting strength, compared with the Celtics without Tatum, they are definitely strong and not weak. In addition, the team will definitely not miss this great opportunity to win the series. This game is likely to be the end of the series!

Don't want the series to return to Boston again, the Knicks strive to win in this game! As soon as the game started, the two teams were obviously a little tight, and they kept making blacksmiths on the offensive end. Bridges was the first to enter the state, scored consecutive points from inside and outside shots, leading the Knicks to score 7; 0 to master the initiative! Brown scored a breakthrough and scored 3 points, stabilizing the situation for the Celtics, but then Towns and Bridges fired again, widening the gap again. At the end of the first quarter, the Knicks led by 6 points! In the second quarter, the Celtics' offense completely lost their voice, missed the shot, and made continuous mistakes. The Knicks directly scored a 10:2 offensive wave to break the gap! Hart fought back in a row, the Celtics' offense had lost its pace, and they only scored 17 points in a single quarter. The Knicks netted 21 points in a single quarter, and opened the gap of 27 points in the first half! The difference between

27 points, the situation of the Celtics is extremely bad, and the team needs to stand up in the second half to strive for hope of winning the game! Entering the second half, White's touch recovered and his continuous scores were scored by the Celtics to narrow the gap, but other players of the team did not perform much. Brunson and Towns scored consecutively, and the Knicks widened the advantage to more than 30 points! The Celtics were behind the scores, and their emotions were obviously affected. The mistakes began to increase, and they failed to make any shots. The court was completely one-sided. The difference reached 41 points at one point, and the game was already spent! The two teams did not continue to compete in the final quarter, and all substitutes were sent early. The game entered the training time in advance. With the 48 minutes, the Knicks defeated the Celtics 119-81, and advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals 4-2, and will play against the Pacers.

38 points in the 6th battle between the Celtics and the Knicks, the Celtics suffered a defeat, lost to their opponents with a big score, and the defending champion was eliminated!

The Celtics lost to the Knicks, but this result is not surprising! The Celtics have actually declined significantly this season. Porzingis and Holiday have declined seriously, far less strong than last season. Horford is also old. In addition, Tatum and Brown have insufficient leadership temperament. The main lineup of the Celtics has actually reached a time to change. In the failure of this season, they will inevitably make adjustments in the offseason and launch an attack on the championship again in the new season!

Knicks won the Celtics in this game and successfully entered the Eastern Conference Finals. This is also the stage where the team entered the Eastern Conference Finals again after 26 years after 1999. Brunson also raised his arms and shouted that the Knicks era is coming again.

The Knicks are really good this season. The team starts 5 players, Brunson, Hart, Anunobi, Bridges and Towns are all good offense and defense players, and they have no shortcomings, and the starting lineup is very strong! Of course, the Knicks' shortcomings are insufficient rotation players and relying too much on starting, which is likely to have injury crisis and physical strength problems. But if the Knicks get rid of the injury, they will indeed have a great chance to win the championship this season!
