Chapter 640: Crazy New York

Madison Square Garden is filled with a frenzied air today, and New Yorkers expect such a victory. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info they haven't tasted the championship for a long time, and for them this game is just as important as the finals.

Jason Kidd doesn't know if he will have the opportunity to stand in the Finals as a player in his life, but he knows that the last time he was kicked out of the Finals in his career was in 2011, and the culprit is Chen Mo, who is now sitting on the sidelines in a suit.

Chen Mo's outfit today attracted a lot of camera attention before the start of the game, and he had a lot of hairspray on his hair, and Curry said that the hairspray on Chen Mo's head could stick flies to death.

A reporter asked why Chen Mo came dressed up today, and Chen Mo replied: "To celebrate the team's 22-game winning streak, after all, this is the second-longest winning streak in NBA history." ”

The female reporter, whose perfume smelled like most insects, was filled with disdain, and in her heart she had already decided that the Warriors would be going to die tonight.

After the start of the game, Jason Kidd blocked the pick-and-roll ahead of Tyson Chandler. The Warriors have impact on the inside, but they don't have the thickness of defense. Chandler is a defensive center, but he's physically powerful and even more impactful than Biedrins.

Biedrins didn't have time to take it back this time, and Stoudemire did a perfect job of covering Chandler's off-ball screen, and Biedrins was blocked solidly.

Kidd made a beautiful arc with a very standard passing motion, and Chandler grabbed the ball and dunked it directly.

The scene was thunderous, and the thunderbolt at the beginning of this game was a good start to tonight's victory.

The Warriors still started with Vucevic in this game, and the idea was to start the game steadily, but now it seems that this is not going to work.

"For Andrey. Chen Mo said to Timothy Glenn: "We have to speed up, we need someone to protect the basket." ”

Chen Mo has not had a lot of exchanges with Kirilenko, and the Russians have always taken a cold route. This season he started playing health basketball, often playing dead. In fact, everyone knows that he wants to play for a few more years and try to reduce the wear and tear of his body as much as possible in every game.

"I was in good shape today. Kirilenko took off his training shirt and tucked his shirt into his pants. It's his habit to tidy up his shirt before he goes on the pitch.

When Kirilenko said this to Chen Mo, he was telling Chen Mo that he was not going to play dead today, and he would go all out.

Chen Mo nodded slightly, he was a little moved in his heart.

He was the one who had a 33-game winning streak with the Oklahoma media, and now he's injured and his teammates are all fighting for it.

"It's not good to make a substitution so early!" Timothy Glenn said to Chen Mo after making the substitution decision.

Chen Mo shook his head and said, "It's because we thought about it wrong, so we need to correct it immediately." ”

Chen Mo had previously discussed with the coaching staff about the starting issue of this game, and there was no doubt that Klay Thompson would start in place of Chen Mo. But as for who to use in the No. 4 position, it is more troublesome.

The Knicks have plenty of interior height, and their interior combination is Stoudemire and Chandler. Stoudemire's defense is poor, but the Warriors don't have an offensive strength inside to hit his soft underbelly.

Previously, the coaching staff judged that the Knicks must have started with one of the two points of Stoudemire or Anthony, and let the two of them attack the Warriors' basket.

So the Warriors still use Vucevic as the starting lineup, using Vucevic to defend the impact, and using Biedrins' mobility to help Vucevic maintain the interior defense.

However, the Knicks started the game with defensive center Chandler, and their current tactics are a bit like the tactics of the New Orleans Hornets in '07. At that time, Paul and Chandler's pick-and-roll became a problem for many teams, and the New Orleans Hornets that year were like a dark horse in Paul's county. That year was also the closest Paul came to the Western Conference in New Orleans.

The Knicks' opening style of play did surprise the Warriors, but they responded quickly.

Curry hit a toss on the offensive end, and Vucevic was fouled while defending Chandler, and Kirilenko was substituted for Vucevic.

"Wait for the rotation time for you to play, prepare well, and today is the time for you to perform. Chen Mo was afraid that Vucevic would be burdened by being replaced so early, so he immediately comforted: "It's not that you didn't play well if you came down, don't worry." ”

After the Warriors replaced Kirilenko, the Warriors immediately solved the problem of difficulty in defending Chandler and cutting in.

Chandler and Kidd block again, Curry will stay behind and not change the defense, just wait for Kirilenko or Millsap to come around from the weak side to help defend, so that Millsap and Kirilenko still have one person to face Anthony, and will not let Anthony's big killer become empty.

The Warriors' tweaks worked, and Kidd immediately changed his play. He stopped looking for Chandler's pick-and-roll and went to Anthony instead.

Anthony and Stoudemire are both attacking players, both of them are scorers, and neither of them is actually suitable for the absolute core of a team.

And Kidd's arrival solved the problem of the Knicks' two sharp knives being incompatible, and his tandem helped the two merge well.

In fact, Anthony's best season before was also with a playmaking guard, and in the 08-09 season he teamed up with Billups to reach the Western Conference Finals, but was eliminated 4-2 by the Lakers.

It has to be said that Anthony was in excellent form today, whether he was against Kirilenko or against Millsap, he was able to get the ball into the basket.

The Warriors' defense isn't too much of a problem, but with a little space for Anthony, he can get the ball to the basket.

The Warriors' offensive fluency has problems after the lack of Chen Mo, without Chen Mo's tandem, their offense seems sluggish, and Curry is stuck in more singles.

By the sixth minute, the Warriors were seven points behind.

The Warriors didn't call a timeout despite falling behind. Chen Mo sat on the bench today, and the head coach of the Warriors is actually Chen Mo.

Chen Mo didn't call a timeout because although the team's operation was not very smooth, there was no big problem. And the team has fallen behind so far, more because Anthony is in good shape.

It wasn't until the first official timeout that Chen Mo began to adjust the team's style of play.

"Stephen, don't be in a hurry, don't get obsessed with scoring or passing. Chen Mo said: "It's good if you play as usual, we can win." ”
