Chapter 248 Inhuman! A Crazy Money-Making Journey!
Chapter 248 Inhuman! A Crazy Money-Making Journey!
The Knicks' attempt to extend their winning streak to 33 games failed.
Their 24-game winning streak came to an end once again.
Of course... there were no insults, only a screen full of praise.
Please.
Not to mention that the second-longest winning streak in history, 24 wins, is already great enough, remarkable enough, and awe-inspiring enough.
The Knicks still managed to win it twice in a single season.
The value of this gold... is skyrocketing.
They deserve praise.
All I can do is praise!
However... due to the remaining games of the season, it is not feasible for the Knicks to attempt another 33-game winning streak and break the record for the longest winning streak in history.
Coach D'Antoni slapped his thigh and decided to give up and focus on preparing for the playoffs.
current.
The Knicks have a record of 48 wins and 12 losses, a winning percentage of 80%, and are ranked first in the Eastern Conference, leading the second-place Cavaliers by a full two games.
There are 22 games left in the season.
Coach D'Antoni plans to start rotating key players to reduce their risk of injury during the regular season and keep them in peak physical condition.
So arrogant?!
Aren't they afraid of losing their top spot in the East, losing home-court advantage in the playoffs, or even losing too many games and missing the playoffs altogether?!
I'm afraid, but not entirely afraid.
First, regarding resting players, Coach D'Antoni only rests one starting player per game.
They might not even rest players when playing against strong teams. But if the team is weak enough, they might rest two players at once.
In short.
The key is to ensure that the Knicks can maintain a certain winning percentage while allowing players to rest.
Second, the Bucks, currently eighth in the Eastern Conference, have already lost 34 games, and there are even more teams behind them.
The Knicks, on the other hand, have only lost 12 games.
This means that... even if the Knicks lose all of their next 22 games, they will only have lost 34 games.
The worst result is eighth place.
Especially in terms of individual team win-loss records, the Knicks will have a better record than the Bucks and secure a playoff spot.
of course.
There's another crucial prerequisite: the Bucks must remain undefeated until the end of the season.
It’s as difficult as climbing to heaven.
In short, the Knicks have secured a playoff spot with 22 games to spare.
This is especially unbelievable considering they had a 10-game losing streak at the start of the season.
As the game progressed, Coach D'Antoni rotated players such as Su Yan, Curry, David Lee, Wilson Chandler, and Tyson Chandler for rest.
Fans also noticed something amiss.
"???"
"What are the Knicks doing lately? Resting their starters in every game, please! It's only March!"
This is the time when all the teams are striving for better rankings and aiming for the playoffs.
So... the Knicks have already started playing it safe and preparing for the playoffs?!
"You're kidding!"
"Holy shit! The Knicks, who had a 10-game losing streak at the beginning of the season, are now preparing for the playoffs more than 20 games in advance."
The contrast is incredible…
"Shit bro! My favorite teams like the Bulls, Raptors, Thunder, and Trail Blazers are fighting tooth and nail for a playoff spot."
Every game felt like a Game 7.
That match was incredibly exciting.
With the Knicks, key players were constantly resting, turning the game into a "health-preserving" affair, and crucially... they didn't lose many games.
This contrast... it's almost inhuman.
"Hahaha, that's really inhuman."
That's normal. The Knicks also won game by game, which is why they're reaping the rewards now.
"If you're so capable, try playing for a team like the Bulls or Thunder and achieve two 20+ winning streaks in a single season."
"Ah this!"
"Excuse me!!!"
"..."
The fans were buzzing with discussion.
That's true.
As the season progresses and the regular season draws to a close, the matchups between the teams are becoming increasingly polarized.
The bottom-tier teams, knowing they have no chance of making the playoffs, begin tanking to secure high draft picks for the new season.
Play as you please.
Strong teams play more casually after their records stabilize, although they don't rest players as frequently as the Knicks.
They will also take turns resting, allowing the main players to rest well and start actively preparing for the playoffs.
The intensity of the competition was also average.
However... there are a total of 8 teams in the East and West that are on the edge of the playoffs, with two spots fluctuating between the top and bottom.
The fight was incredibly close and evenly matched.
Every game was played with full force, all were Game 7-level battles, all incredibly exciting and explosive!!!
Everything is for the sake of securing a playoff spot.
After all... only those who make it to the playoffs have a chance to compete for the championship!!!
……
Time flies.
As we approach the beginning of April, the regular season is drawing to a close, and the Knicks' regular season is almost over.
in a blink.
There are only two games left, but... fans really love watching these two matches.
One game against the Heat, and the final game of the season against the Lakers.
The Heat have Dwyane Wade, "The Flash," and this will be his first matchup against Su Yan this season.
the first time?
Teams in the same division should have four chances to play each other in a season. It's almost the end of the season, how come it's only the first time?
because.
The other three times, two of which occurred in the first 10 games of the season, before Su Yan joined the Knicks.
They played their third game after the All-Star Weekend.
Coincidentally... Wade slightly twisted his right ankle during pre-game practice, so to avoid any accidents...
Coach Spoelstra made a last-minute decision to rest Wade.
The two missed another opportunity to fight.
The fact that they haven't met three times has made fans extremely excited for the "Flame God" vs. "Flash" showdown at the end of the season and the beginning of the season!
Next up is the Lakers.
The defending champions, the Lakers, who also have the best record in the Western Conference, have long been considered the team most likely to defeat the Knicks.
Teams from the East and West only have two chances to play each other this season.
In their first meeting of the season, also in the first 10 games, the Knicks crushed the Knicks by a whopping 29 points.
Unfortunately, Su Yan wasn't there either.
So... this final game between the Knicks and the Lakers at the end of the season became the most talked-about game at the end of the regular season.
Knicks vs. Lakers.
The top team in the East vs. the top team in the West.
"Flame God" Su Yan VS "Black Mamba" Kobe.
This turned into a live broadcast across the entire stadium, almost like a preview of the finals—a super-exciting battle that everyone was eagerly anticipating!
……
There are still two days until the Knicks vs. Heat game.
The Knicks are making adjustments and preparing to respond well, and so are the Lakers. They must win their final game of the season.
Moreover, they are the defending champions, and we must defeat them to enter the playoffs as victors; their confidence will skyrocket!
before this.
Since the second 20-game winning streak, the Knicks have played a total of 25 games, with Su Yan resting for 5 games and playing a total of 20 games.
How much money was spent?
During this period... Su Yan, who had a [lv7] level of money-making ability, embarked on an immersive money-making journey.
Before the final two games of the regular season.
Su Yan decided to calculate exactly how much money he had made during this period!
