In New York, in this big city, people never seem to lose their passion for basketball. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Even though the Knicks' season was very dismal, the New York fans still arrived as scheduled and filled the Madison Square Garden arena.

Van Gundy will never forget this city, this team. Van Gundy's career was the best of his career with the New York Knicks, and the Knicks were also the team he played for the longest and put the most effort into.

Although Van Gundy has never led the Knicks to win the championship, he has to admit that the results of the Knicks in those years are not comparable to the current Knicks.

Van Gundy looked at the familiar arena, the familiar locker room, the familiar spectator seats, but he felt strange. He was unfamiliar with the players in the orange jerseys, the guy in charge, and the management that had undergone a major change. This team is still the New York Knicks, but it is no longer the New York Knicks of the past.

Failing to make the playoffs for five consecutive seasons is a humiliating record for the Eastern Conference giants at the time.

Van Gundy retracted his thoughts and turned his attention to the Thunder players who were warming up. Now, this group of energetic lads is his men, and the Oklahoma City Thunder is the place where he will create another brilliant place.

"Welcome home, Jeff. Suddenly, a man stood in front of Van Gundy and greeted him.

Van Gundy, who was sitting on the bench, looked up to see a black man with glasses and a baseball cap smiling at him.

"Don't come unharmed, Lee. Van Gundy immediately recognized the stylishly dressed guy as none other than Spike Lee, a die-hard New York Knicks fan and a highly successful black American independent film director.

"You came back this time with bad intentions. Spike Lee turned his head to look at the Thunder Sanshao who was warming up, although he was a diehard Knicks loyalist, but to be honest, he knew that as long as Sanshao played normally, the Knicks would have almost no chance of winning.

"It's going to be the playoffs this season, so it's up for every ball. Van Gundy waved his hand disapprovingly, he admired Knicks die-hard fans like Spike Lee, after all, the team's operation in recent years has been too unenterprising, but they still support the team as always.

"Westbrook and Durant can't handle it, but let's hope David Lee can restrain your big Chinese man. "David Lee, the interior long-term who frequently cuts 20+10, is the Knicks' only hope for this game.

"I hope so. Van Gundy smiled, and to be honest, he still had confidence in Anjie, even if he was about to face that All-Star caliber insider.

Lee may have no attacking skills, but his defense is not good enough. And An Jie is the kind of guy who can complete the tasks at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends well. Van Gundy has had many good center forwards under him, and he knows that Anjie is part of the family of "good center forwards".

This is the first time Catherine has been to Madison Square Garden Arena, and although she has been living in New York for a few months, Catherine rarely goes out every day except for training.

And Madison Square Garden is still a little far from Catherine's apartment, so this is the first time she has entered this New York City landmark.

At first, Catherine thought that this arena was in Madison Square Garden, but when she took a taxi today, she didn't know that the current third-generation Madison Square Garden Arena has nothing to do with Madison Square, just because the name "Madison Square Garden" is so representative, so it has been used to this day.

When the taxi driver dropped Catherine off here, Catherine thought she was in the wrong place, because there was simply no place near the stadium that could be called a square.

The taxi driver saw Catherine's predicament and explained.

"Are you a Thunder fan? Because it looks like you're here for the first time, and it's hard for you to come from Oklahoma City?" asked the taxi driver curiously before getting out of the car.

"I'm a Thunder fan, but I also live in New York. Catherine was in a good mood, she looked at the tickets Anjie had sent her, and was so eager to rush into the stadium that she almost forgot to pay the fare.

Now, when Catherine really saw An Jie, her heart was much calmer.

Catherine still remembers the first time she went to watch a basketball game, and An Jie became the guy who caught her eye the most on the court.

"See you again, dear. Catherine laughed intently, and there was nothing more pleasant than the reunion of a couple separated by two places.

After the warm-up, An Jie immediately looked up to find something in the audience. Catherine quickly stood up and waved her arms, allowing Anjie to notice her.

An Jie also waved happily to the audience, which naturally did not have the eyes of the reporters on the spot. After the Thunder returned to the locker room for the last time, Katherine was surrounded by a group of reporters.

However, Catherine is not bored, because how to deal with the relationship with the media is also one of the contents of Catherine's current training. After all, models are also public figures.

Compared with Catherine, who was surrounded by reporters more than a year ago, she is now much more relaxed in dealing with these things than before.

There were more and more fans in the stands, and journalists had to give up space and leave their seats to their true owners.

On the on-site commentary platform, the commentators are gradually in place. It can be seen from the frenzied atmosphere that the Knicks and Knicks fans will not let the Thunder easily win ten consecutive victories!

"We've got to win! not for the sake of a damn 10-game winning streak, but because against the Knicks, we're the strong!" said Jeff Van Gundy, who said he was talking about tactics, and now it's time to motivate the youngsters.

"Don't be afraid of the Thunder's defense, as long as we play according to the tactics, we can definitely pry a hole. Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni is also confident in his offense, as his success with the Suns is undeniable.

One advocates defense, the other advocates offense. One likes to be slow, the other is as fast as possible.

The Knicks and Thunder look like two very different styles, and the final leg of the Thunder's 10-game winning streak is about to begin.

....................

It was just a scrum in the opening period, and Lee found himself not in the ascendancy.

Today, when the lineup is getting smaller and smaller, David Lee's height on the court is already at the level of "seeing all the mountains at a glance". However, when An Jie stood face to face with him, he found out for the first time that he was also at a disadvantage in height.

The referee threw the ball into the air, and Anjie made a leap of the condition, overtaking David Lee's entire palm and easily slapping the ball away.

"Damn!" may not be visible to outsiders, but David Lee knows that Anjie's bounce has always been underestimated!

An Jie has always practiced his bounce power, although he can't compare with the perverted "spring man" in the league, but after the bounce has grown, An Jie's control of the high ball is even more handy.

Westbrook got Angel's basketball and quickly kicked it off, sprinting near the three-point line before the Knicks could find anyone.

Westbrook didn't hesitate, he immediately jumped with both feet, he wanted to shoot!

"Russell Westbrook was going to attack from the start!Although it was a surprise, but to be honest, the timing of this shot was very bad!" Even the CCTV commentator who supported the Thunder did not agree with Westbrook's decision.

The Knicks' two guards on the lineback, Chris Dujon and Daroni Gallinari, jumped with their hands to interfere with Westbrook's shot, and although the guy's shooting percentage was inconsistent, no one dared to relax on him.

David Lee and Jarred Jeffries went straight to the basket, ready to grab the rebound.

When Westbrook jumped to the top, everyone thought he was about to make a move, but Westbrook changed his stance and turned into a pass in the air, sending the ball over the heads of Dujon and Gallinari.

David Lee quickly moved his gaze to the movement of the ball, but when the ball was picked up by someone, David Lee yelled badly.

Westerbru's jump pass was passed to Ang Jie, who cut in.

From the start, the Knicks' defense was a mess, first Gallinari and Dujon went together to block Westbrook's shot, and now it was David Lee's turn to defend the basket and was not ready for Anjie's impact.

After Anjie stepped into the three-second zone with one foot and held the ball with both hands, David Lee hurriedly made up for it, hoping to create an offensive foul on Anjie.

Angel took the first step, and at the same time, Durant also found an open spot in the chaos. Angel turned his head and saw Durant, who had a better chance from beyond the three-point line.

He hurriedly raised his hand, and it looked like An Jie was going to interrupt the layup to make a breakthrough point.

Seeing this, David Lee immediately adjusted his center of gravity and stretched out his long arm, hoping that he could intercept the ball in the middle of the game.

Unexpectedly, when An Jie took the second step, David Lee found that he was tricked by this Chinese!

In the second step, An Jie withdrew his hand to collect the ball, and by the way, he also took back his eyes that looked like he was about to pass the ball. He changed his movements again, and when everyone thought An Jie was going to pass the ball, he went straight to the basket!

David Lee lunged towards the pass, only to find himself in the air. And the Knicks' basket was wide open because of David Lee's mistakes.

"Oh, hahahaha, can you believe it? A big center made a realistic fake pass layup, and really cheated his matchup! The first ball made the commentator start to praise Anjie.

In fact, An Jie's action is not difficult at all, the only difficulty lies in the coherence of the action and the eyes, you have to make people believe that you will definitely pass the ball, the deception of the eyes and smooth movements are indispensable.

"Hahaha, I was just ready to catch the ball. Durant was also happy, Anjie's actions deceived him as a teammate, let alone David Lee.

Anjie only used one ball in the opening game to show that the Thunder team will go all out to win ten consecutive wins.

The Knicks should have worked hard, not to win, but to keep another bloody massacre at Madison Square Garden Arena...... (To be continued.) )
