Founded in 1946 and joined the American Basketball Association (BAA, the predecessor of the NBA), the New York Knicks are a team in the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference of the National Men's Basketball League (NBA), and their home court is located in Madison Square Garden in New York. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It is worth mentioning that the New York Knicks and the Brooklyn Nets are in the same city as New York, just like the Lakers and Clippers.

Of course, unlike the Nets, who only moved to New York later, the Knicks have been in New York since the inception of the team, and they are one of only two teams in history that haven't moved to a city since the BBA (the other being the Boston Celtics).

Historically, the New York Knicks have won two NBA championships.

It's a pity that the New York Knicks have not done well in recent years, and even Cameron Anthony, the star of the Nuggets, who was traded, has not improved.

Last year, the Knicks ranked first in the East with a 17-65 record, which made many people stumble their glasses and make many people question Anthony.

There is no doubt that Anthony is a superstar, he has won the NCAA championship, led the Diggers to the playoffs every year after entering the NBA, and reached the Western Conference Finals in '09. He has also won scoring titles, been selected as an All-Star for consecutive years, and won Olympic gold medals.

He had numerous accolades on his back, but he didn't bring glory to the Knicks.

Of course, Anthony led the Knicks to the playoffs every year of his first three years with the Knicks, and in the 12-13 season, they reached the playoffs.

But in the past two years, the Knicks' record has been getting worse and worse, with 37 wins and 45 losses in the 13-14 season and missing the playoffs, and 17-65 losses in the 14-15 season, simply at the bottom of the West.

People didn't see the Knicks go to glory, Knicks fans didn't see the team win the championship, and as time went on, Anthony got older, and people questioned him more and more, and many people even offered to trade Anthony.

This year, the Knicks selected Rookie Kristaps Porzingis from Latvia with the fourth pick in the first round of the draft.

This choice has also been questioned by the outside world, and many people believe that the Knicks are making mistakes and will never recover.

Thankfully, Kristaps Porzingis proved himself with his actions, and in his first six games as a rookie, he was able to score more than 70 points and more than 50 rebounds, becoming the third player in history.

The first two to do so were Anthony Davis and Blake Griffin, giving reason to believe that he would be a great player who could help the team and bring glory to the team and to the city of New York.

Of course, even so, Porzingis is only third among rookies, with Chen Feng and Karl Anthony Towns ahead of him.

And today, the Knicks will host the Lakers, and Porzingis will also face Chen Feng, one is the third on the rookie list, and the other is the first ranking, and the matchup between the two has attracted the attention of many people.

In the same way, today will also be a showdown between Anthony and Kobe, between the two scoring champions, who will score more?

3 p.m. New York time, Madison Square Garden Arena.

The audience was full, and today's attendance rate exceeded 60%, and many people came for Chen Feng vs Porzingis and Kobe Bryant vs Anthony.

Although neither group is directly opposite and is not in the same position, it does not affect the expectations of this match.

On the pitch, players from both sides are warming up.

"Hibbert, do you think we can win today?" Clarkson looked at the Knicks opposite, a little worried, "Looks like Anthony is in good shape today." ”

During the warm-up, Anthony staged a series of violent dunks, a two-handed slam dunk, and a gliding split dunk, which caused the audience to scream again and again.

"Hmph. Hibbert didn't answer, taking the ball was a two-handed dunk, falling off the basket, and then said to Clarkson, "We're going to win, they have Anthony, don't we have Kobe?"

"That's right. Clarkson laughed.

Next to him, Chen Feng and Kobe Bryant glanced at each other, and they both saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.

Today's game is very unusual, in addition to Kobe Bryant and Anthony to compete secretly, Chen Feng and Porzingis are also the same.

In addition, both the Lakers and the Knicks were poor last season, and both sides have also returned to form in the first few games this season, and no one wants to lose this game, and they all want to continue their morale.

What's more, today is the home court of the Knicks, and it will not be an easy game for the Lakers, and it is difficult to predict how to win or lose.

"Chen, are you confident?" Bryant asked.

"Of course. Chen Feng smiled, "We're here to win, aren't we?"

Kobe Bryant nodded and laughed too.

On the other side, Anthony and others were also warming up, Porzingis and Anthony stood together, Anthony patted Porzingis on the shoulder and said, "Are you confident of beating Chen today? I mean, beating him in stats, he is the No. 1 rookie." ”

Porzingis' expression was solemn, and he thought for a while before saying, "Although he is now ranked first in the rookie list, I will not be afraid of him." This is our Knicks' home stadium, and he can't be arrogant. ”

"Well said. Anthony's eyes lit up, and a bright light popped up in his eyes, he looked at the side of the Lakers and said, "Today, we have to win." ”

Porzingis has to prove himself and Anthony has to prove himself, this is their home stadium and they are not allowed to lose.

......

It's almost half past three in the afternoon, and the game is about to start.

The players on both sides stopped warming up and returned to their respective coaches, waiting for the coaches to set up their tactics and the whistle sounded just in time for a group of people to take to the court.

In the audience, the fans became excited, and the home fans accounted for the majority, and one by one they began to shout the names of the players and cheer them on.

Of course, the small number of away fans is not to be outdone, and there is a stark contrast to the home fans, such as the two armies facing each other, and the game on the field has not yet started, they have already fought.

"Toot ......"

The whistle blows and the game begins.

Porzingis stepped forward to jump the ball, young and tall, easily past Hibbert, touched the ball first, and poked the ball into the backfield.

“go!”

With a shout, the Knicks attacked.

At the same time, the Lakers quickly returned to defense, each in a good position, and adopted a 2-3 joint defense, with everyone holding an area and waiting for the battle.
