This game is more important than Game 1 was.” Melo說：我們在主場的這場比賽必須要贏，我們一定要贏得這場比賽，我們不想要到波士 頓時是1-1，G2一定比第一場比賽更艱難，雖然我們贏了G1，我們仍然要取得G2的勝利， 這場比賽勝利比G1更重要。 The Knicks, buoyed by the news of J.R.

We’ve got to be prepared for whatever.” 第一場比賽的英雄K罵說到G2說：這是重要的。你不想去到那裡時是1-1，面對那支球隊的 球迷，他們知道他們必須做什麼，他們要來到這裡從零開始戰鬥，他們知道這是一場重要 的比賽，我們無論如何都要準備好。 “We want to play Knicks basketball,’’ Shumpert said. “We want to get out, we want to pressure, pressure early, we want to pressure in the full court. That’s something that Pablo loves to do, so having him back would be great.’ ’ 香波說：我們可是打團隊籃球，我們上場時會給對手壓力，我們要全場給他們壓迫，這是 PP最愛做的事，所以他回來將會對我們幫助很大。 The Knicks are also expecting a more ferocious Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett, neither of whom imposed their will on Saturday’s game, especially down the stretch. 尼克也預期會遇到個更兇猛的Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett尤其在決勝期。 “Yeah, they’re going to come back,’’ Anthony said. “They’re not All-Stars, Hall-of-Fame guys, for no reason.
