He is the culprit for the Knicks loss: As one of the three giants, he has 2 points in the game, plus or negative value is eye-catching
1:48am, 16 May 2025【Basketball】
Two consecutive away games, hey! Are the Knicks going to win the championship?
has returned to the home court, and it is the best home court in the world. Many people are looking forward to the Knicks performing better.
Unexpectedly, the Knicks, who returned to New York, suffered a big defeat. At most, they were more than 30 points behind their opponents, and at the end of the game they were still 22 points behind.
We can't help but want to ask: Why did we return to home court and perform worse than away games? How did the Knicks lose? Is
the Celtics beat too well?
When you look at the game data, it doesn’t look like it? One of the double-Tanhua scored 22 points and the other scored 19 points, which can only be said to be average. Looking at the hit rate, one made 8 of 20 shots and the other made 7 of 18 shots. It can be said that the output is not high and the quality is also very low. Just their performance, I am completely sorry for my salary. In addition to the double-Tanhua, some perform well and some perform badly.
White scored 17 points, Pritchard scored 23 points, Horford scored 15 points. These three are considered good.
The other two main players, Holiday scored 8 points, and was sloppy; Porzingis made 0 of 3 shots and scored 5 points with free throws. It seems that the virus in the strip club is quite powerful.
To be honest, there are so many people who can play in the Celtics. If the East is not bright in the West, the West can win the performance of Double Tanhua.
But this is the characteristic of the Celtics. It is not this game. It was the same before. The two games that Lan Ni won were the same! You can't expect to strangle everyone in the Celtics to death, someone has to play. What if they are the serious defending champion?
Instead of looking for reasons in the Celtics, it is better to look for reasons in the Knicks themselves. The culprit for their loss is not on the opposite side, but inside the team. Who is the culprit
?
First, not Brunson. Datou made 9 of 21 shots in the game, made 3 of 8 three-pointers, scoring 27 points and 7 assists. His performance can be said to be the best among all the players of the two teams. Can he blame him for losing?
is not Towns either. He made 5 of 18 shots in the game, scoring 21 points and 15 rebounds. This performance cannot be said to be very good, but it is also remarkable and quite good.
It has to be explained clearly here that Towns' shooting percentage doesn't seem that high, but in fact, many missed shots caused fouls. You have to look at the actual hit rate, but it is not that bad. In this game, Towns made a total of 11 free throws and made 10 free throws.
And what does the man Towns say? He is a little soft when he always fights tough battles. This is not the case today. Towns also performed this way in the two games that the Knicks won in the previous game. Anyway, it's: Towns' performance meets expectations, and fans have not had too high expectations for him.
is not a bridge yet. Bridge made 6 of 10 shots in the game and scored 12 points. His mobile phones will be a little less, but his performance must not be said to be poor.
Hart performed in this game in a mediocre way, scoring 10 points from 3 of 9 shots. But against the backdrop of another star, his performance is that the gods descend to earth.
The star is one of the three big players in the Knicks, OG Anunobi with a maximum salary.
What did he perform in this game? He played 31 minutes in the game, made 1 of 6 shots, and scored only two points. Not only is the score negligible, his other frontal data only has two rebounds and one assist, snatching 0 goals and slapping 0 shots.
During his presence, the team lost a total of 25 points, the worst performer among all the players of the two teams. Maybe if he doesn't let him play and let the substitute play more, the Knicks will win this game.
If he is a role, it is understandable that the player performs poorly. After all, he only receives such a small salary. What can I say?
But the problem is: he is the team's No. 3 star and the only maximum-paid player outside of Towns. With a salary of more than 40 million yuan, but he performed as a pure undercover agent, how can the team win?
Anunobi was obtained by the Knicks a year and a half ago. For him, the core chip that the Knicks put in is the potential new star Barrett.
Last summer, the Knicks signed a maximum salary contract with him. The amount of this contract is 212.5 million in five years. Moreover, in order to show respect for him, the Knicks also gave him player options and trade veto rights, and even Doncic and Jokic did not have this treatment.
Following this season, the Knicks lost to their grandma's house. In the regular season, Arnold averaged 18 points per game and Barrett scored 21.1 points.
And Barrett still has room for improvement with 25 points. Anunobi is 28 years old this year, and now is his peak period. In terms of salary, Barrett only has $25 million this year, almost half of Anunobi's.
Just look at the performance in the regular season. Although Anunobi is sorry for the maximum salary, it is also remarkable.
Unexpectedly, Anunobi's performance declined sharply in the playoffs, with his average score dropping to 15.6 points and his shooting percentage dropping from 47.6% to 40.5%. In the three games between
and the Celtics, he performed well in the first game, scoring 29 points from 10 of 20 shots. But to be honest, this 29 points were scored in overtime. He played for 46 minutes in the game, and his efficiency was not very good.
Then, he was undercover in the next two games. I won't talk about this game. In the game where the Knicks narrowly defeated the Celtics on May 8, Anunoby made two of 9 shots and scored only 5 points. He is also the only one among the main players who scored less than double the score.
in terms of positive and negative values, among the five main players in these three games, the lowest positive and negative values in the whole game, all of which were negative.
If he continues to be so careless, it is highly likely that the Knicks will be turned over. There is not so much fault tolerance in the playoffs.
