Bags don't wrap clips, that's a problem.

After Zhou Xuan got rid of the cover, Paul and Griffin wrapped it once, and Zhou Xuan immediately hit the ground and passed to the middle in the gap between the two. Scola took a step forward to catch the ball and took another step to throw it in. Butler didn't have time to make up for it. 25 to 15.

After two more rounds, Paul made a mid-range shot, turned back to Zhou Xuan to attract the bag, and passed to Anderson to score a mid-range shot. 27 to 17.

Negro's substitution was to play small-ball tactics, and D'Antoni replaced Bledsoe to strengthen the defense of the fast break, grabbing rebounds and actively playing the fast break.

Before Paul's arrival, the Clippers were playing aggressively on the fast break, but at that time they were just a lottery team, and the Knicks were more experienced in playing run-and-gun games than they did.

At 2 minutes and 49 seconds, Zhou Xuan quickly received a pass from Bledsoe, and the strong burst caused Butler to foul and hit both free throws.

In 1 minute and 37 seconds, Zhou Xuan got rid of Paul by covering, received the ball on the right side and singled out Griffin, dribbled the ball under his crotch and turned around to a 45-degree backward jumper, wiping the board and hit.

After that, Zhou Xuan failed to score and deliver assists, and scored 20 points and 5 assists in a single quarter. Paul had only 6 points and 3 assists, and he was blown out in the first quarter. Under the leadership of Zhou Xuan, the Knicks led by 9 points at 36-27.

In the second quarter, the two sides competed off the bench, and the Knicks played Bledsoe, Matthews, Nick Young, Parsons, and Bletcher.

Chandler was rested from injury and there were only three players left in the interior rotation, and Parsons made a cameo appearance at the No. 4 position to play the small ball tactic.

The Clippers played Crawford, Stephenson, Barnes, Odom and Hollins.

Stephenson was very angry when he saw that Matthews was an enemy, and he spat trash talk in spite of his previous teammates.

In the past, they rarely talked in the team. Although Stephenson did not publicly express his displeasure, he never considered himself bad, and he was a substitute for Matthews for more than two years, and he was extremely depressed. Matthews, on the other hand, resented Stephenson moving too much in training.

Matthews continued to defend modestly, running around the perimeter waiting for shots, tightly controlling the number of shots he made, and handing the ball to Parsons. Matthews has averaged 13 per game in less than 10 shots this season. 4 points. The hit rate is as high as 49. 4%, and 41 on three-pointers. 7%, he's the No. 2 spot the Knicks need.

Parsons also got better and better, doing what the coaching staff asked him to do, and becoming a playmaker of Batum's type. Gallinari, who was sent away, is also inferior to Parsons in terms of strategy, and his shooting percentage is also higher than Parsons.

When Parsons broke through to score a layup, Zhang reasonably said: "Gao Fushuai is now the most cost-effective player in the league, with an annual salary of less than one million, doing the work of a quasi-star, I think his next contract should be at least 10 million." ”

Yu Jia said: "The Knicks are where the role players break out. Zhou Xuan is good at creating chances, and D'Antoni's offensive system is also a soldier for all, if he can't play statistics under D'Antoni, he can't go anywhere. ”

Zhang Li smiled: "Du Hong may be a typical example. ”

Stephenson got to the Clippers and had a chance, he shot well and his ability to play well. And after two years of depression, he has smoothed out some edges and corners, at least he won't snatch Crawford's ball and play around.

The Clippers showed some advantage from the outside, and Nick Young was also blocked by Barnes. However, the Clippers' interior bench is too bad, and Odom, who was able to play Mozgov in the low post on the international stage back then, can't play Bleche at all now. Hollins is even more incapable of attacking and can be empty outside of the basket.

Six minutes later, at 49-41, the Knicks still had an eight-point lead.

Zhou Xuan returned to the court, with Nick Young and Leonard on the outside, Parsons and Bleche on the inside. The Clippers Paul and Griffin came on and replaced Crawford and Hollins.

The Knicks attacked first, and Zhou Xuan controlled the ball on the periphery against Paul. Also just played, Zhou Xuan decided to find a feeling here with Paul, and played the code to let his teammates pull away.

Zhou Xuan started the "basketball street dance" outside the three-point line, and put a fast-paced song in his head, and he was extremely skilled with the ball. He is not overpowered, as long as he does not lose the ball, let the body get into the state as soon as possible, and at the same time can disgust the opponent. Although his movements are fancy and not very practical, he also has a way to pass quickly if Paul is on the grab.

Paul has seen a lot of Zhou Xuan's streetball play, and he hates it very much, but he must force himself to calm down, if he reaches out casually, it will only be more embarrassing to be passed.

As long as Zhou Xuan doesn't make mistakes, he is on the favorable side. He continued to make moves until the last six seconds, choosing the easiest way to attack, and suddenly pulled the ball up and pulled up three points. He had rushed forward and retreated several times before, and Paul didn't know if he was going to break out or when. In the end, although he reacted, he didn't cover it, so he could only close his eyes.

Zhou Xuan warmed up through these ten seconds, and his wrist was also flexible, and the ball bounced into the back edge of the basket, scoring his 23rd personal point. 52 to 41.

This is Zhou Xuan's fifth three-pointer. Paul didn't defend the ball, and it was a bigger blow to morale than letting his opponent hit two fast-break dunks. The audience was also less vocal, and in their opinion, Zhou Xuan played Paul in a very unreasonable way.

One must be returned at this point, or the Knicks will overwhelm the Clippers in morale. The Clippers players also pulled away, but Paul was a little bottomless in his heart, he and Zhou Xuan had never taken advantage of each other except for the first season.

Paul is not a defender who is good at heads-up, and has never dominated the game with heads-up. Therefore, many people say that Paul is very watery, and Zhou Xuan does not look watery at all among the fans, and he is the most fierce among point guards.

Paul also singled at the top of the arc, and Zhou Xuan kept a one-and-a-half-step distance to prevent breakthroughs from interfering with the shot. Paul's crotch dribble to the left side, and then dribble behind his back to the right hand to change direction, Zhou Xuan followed, Paul shook the ball with his back and turned to the right side, Zhou Xuan didn't look at the feints, only looked at the changes in the hip bone, and judged the right direction.

A person who reacts slowly, even if he sees it, can't defend like Zhou Xuan, his brain and body can be completely synchronized. Paul kept it to the right side at 45 degrees, leaned on his back and turned around in the middle, Zhou Xuan still followed, and the distance was not chaotic. Paul stepped back and forced his hand to dodge the block, Zhou Xuan jumped up to seal his eyes, and the ball bounced out of the frame. Bleche got the rebound.

Smith said: "Zhou Xuan made a perfect defense in this round, and he followed too closely. ”

Barkley said: "Zhou Xuan has weaknesses in defense, similar to Paul, they are big men who are afraid to shoot, and it is impossible to prevent them from being misplaced and defending the low post. However, Paul relied on technical breakthroughs, which is exactly what Zhou Xuan is best at defending. ”

Smith said: "It's just one-on-one, Paul is not Zhou Xuan's opponent, he still doesn't think about returning one, and it is better to cooperate with his teammates." ”

often commentates on Knicks games, and many people know that not to mention Paul, Kobe Bryant and Zhou Xuan will only be blown up if they don't rely on their bodies to eat one-on-one.

And Paul can't be more beautiful than Zhou Xuan, because the Clippers lack people who can pull away. Even if Griffin blocks the pick-and-roll, the team is happy to wrap Paul and let Griffin jump. Against the Knicks, Anderson and Parsons can't shoot.

The Knicks attacked, and Zhou Xuan relied on Parsons to cover the misplaced Odom. Two consecutive crotch dribbles back, not in a hurry to get rid of it, waiting for Paul to chase the defense. Paul chose to go around Parsons and didn't come forward. Zhou Xuan dribbled under his crotch and took a step with his left foot, almost hitting Odom while protecting the ball with his back and handing it over to his right hand, and his left shoulder shook lightly.

Odom looked at his ball carrier and judged that it would be a feint and opted for a defensive baseline. How do you know that this is not a feint, it is just delaying time, and Parsons in the middle squeezes Paul to cut in.

Zhou Xuan passed the ball to Parsons from close range, and the latter jumped up to the basketball. Odom couldn't block on the side, and he also dropped the foul considering Parsons' free-throw percentage. 54-41, Zhou Xuan's sixth assist.

The Clippers attacked, and after a couple of passes, Barnes scored on a breakaway layup. 54 to 43.

The Knicks attacked, Zhou Xuan broke through with the ball and was misplaced, or against Odom. He dribbled the ball under his crotch and took a step to the left, Odom retreated, Zhou Xuan pulled the ball up, made a European step, first took a step towards the middle of the right leg, quickly changed direction to the left and swept past Odom, jumped up and scored with a left-handed pick-and-roll. 25th individual point. 56 to 43.

Odom couldn't turn around after eating, and there was no way to take Zhou Xuan with his height.

Griffin couldn't make a mid-range shot after blocking and dismantling, and the Knicks counterattacked, and Zhou Xuan took the ball and made a long pass to Nick Young. The latter received the ball and pulled out his hand in the face of Barnes's unreasonable dry shot. Barnes did a good job of interfering with the shot before, and Nick Young shot 0 of 3. The singles king's adjustment is to throw the fourth ball.

This time he was quick to pull and had a high arc of the ball, dodging the block and hollowing into the net. 59 to 43.

D'Antoni stood up on the sidelines and applauded twice, and if Nick Young doesn't score again, he's going to make a substitution.

Barnes couldn't help but feel depressed. After leaving the Lakers, he also thought about joining the Knicks, but the Knicks had too many swingmen. If you can't get past the Knicks, how can you win the championship?

It's one thing to like Los Angeles, it's one thing to have a girlfriend doing a reality show, but Barnes' favorite is the championship. Otherwise, he wouldn't have signed with the Suns, Magic, Lakers, and Clippers for low salaries in a row. It's a pity that he chose the wrong one every time, especially in 2009, if he accepted the Warriors' long-term contract, not only could he make more money, but his dream would have come true at that time.

Paul blocked the offense, forced a breakthrough against Parsons, attracted Bleche to make up the defense, and the ball was handed to the perimeter, and Butler got rid of it with Odom's off-ball cover and hit a three-point shot. 59 to 46.

The Clippers don't want to lose, they have a lot of quality players, but they just can't prevent it.

Zhou Xuan passed Leonard first, and Bleche ran to the weak side without the ball cover, and Odom changed the defense, and Paul also chased up. Zhou Xuan half-turned around to receive Leonard's pass without pausing, jumped up lightly and moved to the middle with one hand.

Paul hurriedly rushed to the middle to interfere with the shot, but unfortunately the difference in size was too big. Blancher ignored the interference and scored on a jumper. 61-46, Zhou Xuan's seventh personal assist.

Chinese fans have turned against each other at home, applauding Zhou Xuan when the Knicks returned to defense, he showed extraordinary dominance, and it was possible to win 30+10 at halftime.
