The NBA regular season continues. The Knicks face the Cavaliers at home. Today’s game is likely to be a preview of the Eastern Conference finals and is full of highlights. The competition between Mitchell and Brunson on the outside, and the confrontation between Mobley, Allen and Towns on the inside, are all very exciting.

Originally, the Pacers were the strongest team in the Eastern Conference, but just after reaching the finals, the Pacers had already begun to dismantle the team. The team let Turner go, and Haliburton's injury caused this team to move out of the ranks of championship contenders.

Another strong team, the Celtics, is already a thing of the past. Tatum's injury has cost the team the chance to compete for the championship. Then, the East will be dominated by the Knicks and Cavaliers.

At the beginning of the game, Mobley turned over and scored from mid-range. Brunson immediately responded with a three-pointer. Towns faced Mobley and hit a 3-pointer, causing a foul and making all three free throws. The score came to 5:2, and the Knicks took the lead. Mitchell faced Hookerboldi and made an underhand move. Brunson hit the iron, Tyson hit another three-pointer, and Brunson committed another offensive foul. Merrill's chasing 3-pointer actually led to a 6:0 spurt, with the score reaching 10:5.

The Knicks also counterattacked very quickly. Anunoby hit a mid-range shot and then assisted Bridges to hit a 3-pointer. Towns passed Mobley and dunked with a backhand. Brunson also made a layup after the confrontation. It went straight to a 9-0 wave. The score reached 14:10, and the Knicks took the lead.

The game entered a timeout. After returning, the Rizhao incense burner emitted purple smoke, and Anunoby scored another three points at 17:10. Mobley stopped the bleeding with a three-pointer, and Ball hit a three-pointer. His touch was very bad today. Brunson took a big step for a layup, fouled again, and made two free throws. The Cavaliers still had to look at Mobley, who scored another 3 points. Bridges made a fadeaway jumper to stabilize the score. Then, there was a direct break, and a one-stop counterattack scored. It was Bridges again, who overturned Mobley and scored 7 points in a row. The score reached 25:16, and the Knicks led by 9 points.

After coming back, Bridges had another extra penalty and hit. Then, with Ball's assist, Allen dunked one, but the Cavaliers' foul count soon came. The Knicks made free throws, and the point difference quickly reached 10 points. Anunoby could still score, a 12-point difference. Ball passed around the block and sent Wade to the right wing and scored a three-pointer. McBride scored a three-pointer and immediately responded. Mitchell stretched to the free throw line and scored a jumper. At the end of the first quarter, the Knicks led the Cavaliers by 10 points 33:23.

In terms of statistics, Mobley scored the most 10 points in the team, while Allen scored 2 points. Mitchell only scored 4 points, and Ball made 0 of 4 shots and failed to score 1 point, but he had 3 rebounds and 4 assists.

For the Knicks, Bridges scored a team-high 10 points, Brunson scored 7 points, Anunoby scored 7 points and 4 rebounds, and Towns scored 6 points.

In today's game, judging from the current situation, the Cavaliers rely too much on 3-pointers and their performance is very unstable. The Knicks are really becoming more and more stable, and their offensive methods are also very rich. In this game, it seems that the Cavaliers have no ability to counterattack.

The Cavaliers are still facing the same old problems as before. The injury problem is too serious. In the playoffs last season, there were a large number of injuries. Today, Garland has a toe injury, Strus has a foot injury, and Hunter has a knee contusion. They are all missing the game. It may be a bit difficult to win the championship.

If the Cavaliers want to win the championship, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. They might as well pursue James again next season. Not to mention other things, although James is also injured, at least it is not as serious as the Cavaliers players. When the time comes, Lao James will lower his salary, and with the team's current lineup, it will still be perfect. Otherwise, the Cavaliers' championship will be just a dream.

Knicks starting: Anunoby, Towns, Hooker Bolti, Bridges, Brunson
