Chapter 498 [Stub Outbreak Again]
While Zhou Xuan was thinking about how to widen the score, Malone and Woodson were also thinking about how to strengthen the Knicks' defense.
Pekovic moves too slowly and can only be used as a meat shield under the basket.
Stoudamire has the physical condition of a top-tier defender who always eats feints. His motto is "My opponent has passed me a thousand times, and I treat my opponent as I first saw him." ”
Evans, the only player who has a good break-through point, is not suitable to stay away from the basket, so his ability to grab rebounds will not be able to play.
After some calculation, the reason for the Knicks' poor defense now is mainly on the inside. It may be strengthened by trade, but the interior who is good at blocking and pick-and-roll is the rarest in the league, and the interior contract that can defend and shoot is even greater. You can't find that kind of talent in the free market, and if you trade it, the Knicks roster will definitely be broken.
Zhang Li said: "It's the crucial fourth quarter again, let's see how Zhou Xuan will play." Since last season, Zhou Xuan has often had wonderful performances in the fourth quarter. ”
"They also have to limit the Warriors' stars on the defensive end, and the Warriors four-man team is recognized as a strong offense in the league, and only the combined offensive power of the Lakers' three interior lines and Kobe Bryant can compare to it," Yu said. Blair, a rookie who played well last season, rarely played. ”
Blair has made up his mind, and after the team brought in Amondson, plus Brandon? Wright, he has too few chances to play. Smart felt that he was too short and now preferred to use Wright.
Curry only rested for a total of three minutes in the first three quarters, and was a little tired, but Smart continued to let him play. Jeremy Lin doesn't have the trust of the coaching staff, and there was Watson available, but now he's poached by the Bulls. Excessive fatigue is prone to injuries, and Curry has fought hard. He's not just trying to win, he's going to win the hearts of Warriors fans sooner rather than later.
Curry was happy when he joined the Knicks, and he wanted to be the signature star there, but he fell into the dilemma of losing consecutive games. When the team traded him for Zhou Xuan, he had a premonition that it would be bad, and the Warriors would be under more pressure and must pay more.
Ellis also only rested for 5 minutes, and since Zhou Xuan left, it has become common for him to play for more than 40 minutes. Unlike Curry, he was unusually full of physical strength, and he was still like thunder in the fourth quarter.
The Warriors attacked, Curry ran out of the perimeter, received the ball and turned around for a three-point shot, Zhou Xuan's hand had been sealed on his face, and he still couldn't prevent him from scoring, so he glanced at the basket, completely relying on his feel. 96 to 95.
After the comeback, Zhou Xuan did not regress on the offensive end, and what needed to be slowly recovered was defense. Once bitten by a snake, he was afraid of the well rope for ten years. Zhou Xuan is much more cautious than before, when he sees the opponent making dangerous moves, he doesn't dare to defend with all his strength, for fear of getting injured again, so the blocking of the breakthrough when defending, as well as chasing and blocking are not as good as last season.
If he is not injured for half a season, Zhou Xuan is ready to exert his strength. Now in the second and third quarters, he is more passing to his teammates, looking for opportunities on the perimeter, in order to maintain his full energy in the final quarter. The chance of physical injury is also reduced. In this regard, Zhou Xuan is far smarter than other young players.
Zhou Xuan controlled the ball, and no one stepped forward to press. The Warriors' two guards are also conserving their stamina. To the frontcourt, the players all pulled away, and Zhou Xuan and Sstaddameyer cooperated in blocking and dismantling.
That's where Anderson is. As soon as he gets on, the opponent must defend the inside, and the Knicks' two big shooters with a height of 208CM are not to be underestimated outside. Garcia did a very good job of restricting Gallinari before, and David Lee almost didn't get out of the way.
Zhou Xuan burst to the left, Randolph followed, Zhou Xuan took the ball into the three-point line and moved horizontally to open the distance, holding the ball in his right hand and approaching with his left hand.
Randolph saw that he had used "worship the Buddha" too many times, thinking that he was going to pass someone, so he stood still. And Zhou Xuan changed from a breakthrough to a real shot, took the ball and pulled it up, and scored a 60-degree jumper. 98-95, 19th personal point.
The Warriors attacked, Ellis broke through the pull-up jump shot and missed, the Knicks began to compress the defense, the defense line did not shrink very much in the first three quarters, and now there are two players on the court who are sure of three points, and Ellis makes him shoot less efficiently than the break. Although Ellis shot a new high from three-point range in summer training, it wasn't his usual offensive tactic.
The rebound was grabbed by David Lee, and the hook shot was missed again, and Anderson finally won the rebound.
The Knicks attacked, Zhou Xuan blocked and led to the right, facing David Lee, and Randolph stayed on the baseline to defend Gallinari.
Zhou Xuan continued to dribble under his crotch and waited for the Warriors players to come up to help defend. This is the weak side, there is no one in the bottom corner. If you want to help defend, you have to go up, and as soon as he goes up, Stadameyer in the middle is empty. This time, Xiao Si did not cut empty, helping to open up the space.
Zhou Xuan suddenly started, David Li followed on the side, Zhou Xuan changed direction to the middle, his left hand received the ball and gently probed his shoulder, David Li's center of gravity followed to the middle, as soon as his right foot landed, Zhou Xuan dribbled the ball under his crotch and handed his right hand to the bottom line to break through successfully.
David Lee just stretched out his hand, his legs didn't move, and seeing Zhou Xuan pass by, Randolph hurriedly let go of Gallinari to make up the defense. Zhou Xuan took the ball and pulled the lever in the air to avoid Randolph, but did not pass the ball to the bottom corner, Garcia had already let go of Anderson towards the bottom corner.
Zhou Xuan half-turned in the air, and sent the ball to the middle lightly with his right hand, and Stadameyer cut it in the air.
As long as Zhou Xuan breaks through, Xiao Si can fight for rebounds without receiving a pass, David Lee was later run to Anderson, and Curry was quite helpless about it. Xiao Si received the ball in the middle, jumped up without waiting for Randolph to turn around, and scored with one hand. Randolph could only let him watch from the sidelines. 100 to 95. Zhou Xuan's 18th assist.
The Warriors attacked, Ellis was caught after breaking through and distributed the ball to the outside, Matthews rotated to defend Curry, Curry passed to David Lee, who scored on a jumper. 100 to 97.
The Knicks' offense was all pulled away again, and this time Zhou Xuan relied on speed to distance himself from David Lee after blocking and dismantling a dribble that changed direction, and David Lee chose to foul in order to prevent him from breaking into the basket. Zhou Xuan went to the free throw line and hit both free throws to score his 21st point. 102 to 97.
The Knicks attacked, both inside lines pulled out to block and dismantle for Ellis, Ellis singled out Stadamyer, broke through by the speed baseline, Xiao Si followed from the side to prepare for blocking, Ellis didn't dare to shoot if he didn't have a good chance, came out of the left side in a circle, passed to Curry, and the latter handed over to David Lee in the middle.
David Lee singled out Anderson, and this time Anderson followed closely and did not disappoint the coaching staff again, David Lee failed to break through, and then passed to Garcia, who hung to Randolph in the low post on the right.
With only two seconds left in the offensive time, Randolph relied on Matthews to turn and miss a jumper, Matthews was misplaced to defend, and his weight of 100 kilograms was also outstanding in the second position.
Gallinari grabbed the backcourt rebound and threw it straight to the frontcourt. The Knicks attacked quickly, and Zhou Xuan shook off David Lee and received a pass in the frontcourt. Curry followed on the side, Zhou Xuan cut inside with the ball on the right side, and made physical contact with Curry, he leaned over and forced a layup to miss, and the referee's whistle sounded to block the foul.
The Knicks have a home-court advantage, and Zhou Xuan is much more famous than Curry, so this kind of blocking ball will definitely blow. Zhou Xuan hit both free throws and scored his 23rd point. 104 to 97.
Seeing that the score was open, Smart hurriedly asked for a timeout. Smart knows Zhou Xuan, if he doesn't make proper adjustments, he may not be able to fight endlessly, and his data today is too terrifying, and he must be guarded against.
Zhang Li said with a smile: "The Knicks began to take the initiative, and Zhou Xuan's ability to make fouls was not bad, and he really became powerful in the last quarter." ”
Yu Jia said: "Zhou Xuan has already proved last season that as long as he makes more shots, he can also score high. He is averaging 15 per game this season. 6 points, with a true shooting percentage of 58. 2%, second only to the Spurs' Parker and the Hornets' Paul among the guards. Those two are 59. 6% and 59. 4%, and Wade is in fourth place with 56. 8%, which fully reflects Zhou Xuan's offensive ability. ”
"True Hit Percentage" mainly reflects the efficiency of a player in converting the team's offensive power into scoring, also known as "true offensive efficiency".
Rationally, basketball experts like to use the "true shooting percentage" to measure a player's offensive efficiency, while fans emotionally prefer to look directly at shooting percentage and scoring statistics.
For any team, the number of attacks in a game is limited and measurable. It can be roughly recorded as "the number of rounds + rebounds in the front court - the number of turnovers", and using these limited number of attacks to get more points is the basis for each team to win. It can be said that the team's attacking rights are limited and extremely precious. It is the mission of every offensive player to convert limited offensive power into more points.
An offensive right, the norm is the expectation of 2 points. Some players with accurate three-point or 2+1 ability can exchange one offensive right for 3 points, which is super value.
There are no more than 7 possibilities for scoring with offensive power: a 2-point shot; 3-point shooting; 2-point shot fouled, ball missed, free throws twice; 3-point shot fouled, ball missed, free throws three times; A 2-point shot is fouled and the ball goes in, plus a free throw, referred to as 2+1, a 3-point shot is fouled, the ball goes in, and a free throw is added, referred to as 3+1, and in some extreme cases, a technical foul and a three-second free throw.
Although the shooting percentage alone is intuitive and can also reflect the scoring efficiency of the player, it is not comprehensive. For example, Zhou Xuan attacked, was fouled when shooting, and made two free throws. Since being fouled while shooting is not counted in the number of shots, that is, it is not counted in the statistics of shooting percentage. Then the result of Zhou Xuan consuming the team's offensive power this time cannot be reflected by the hit rate.
For example, Anderson made 3-of-6 three-pointers and Pekovic made 3-of-6 two-pointers. The same 50 percent shooting rate also consumed the team's six offensive attempts, but Anderson converted those six offensive attempts into nine points, and Pekovic converted those six offensive attempts into six points. Can it help the team the same?
Because of this difference, D'Antoni, who advocates offense, does not like to use Evans, Mozgov, and Stephenson, but is particularly fond of Anderson, Fields, and Matthews. Measured by true shooting percentage, the offensive efficiency and ability of the players are not perfect, but relatively perfect.
Experts all know that Zhou Xuan's efficiency is getting higher and higher, and he is making progress again. While Zhou Xuan was thinking about how to widen the score, Malone and Woodson were also thinking about how to strengthen the Knicks' defense.
Pekovic moves too slowly and can only be used as a meat shield under the basket.
Stoudamire has the physical condition of a top-tier defender who always eats feints. His motto is "My opponent has passed me a thousand times, and I treat my opponent as I first saw him." ”

"True Hit Percentage" mainly reflects the efficiency of a player in converting the team's offensive power into scoring, also known as "true offensive efficiency".
Rationally, basketball experts like to use the "true shooting percentage" to measure a player's offensive efficiency, while fans emotionally prefer to look directly at shooting percentage and scoring statistics.
For any team, the number of attacks in a game is limited and measurable. It can be roughly recorded as "the number of rounds + rebounds in the front court - the number of turnovers", and using these limited number of attacks to get more points is the basis for each team to win. It can be said that the team's attacking rights are limited and extremely precious. It is the mission of every offensive player to convert limited offensive power into more points.
An offensive right, the norm is the expectation of 2 points. Some players with accurate three-point or 2+1 ability can exchange one offensive right for 3 points, which is super value.
There are no more than 7 possibilities for scoring with offensive power: a 2-point shot; 3-point shooting; 2-point shot fouled, ball missed, free throws twice; 3-point shot fouled, ball missed, free throws three times; A 2-point shot is fouled and the ball goes in, plus a free throw, referred to as 2+1, a 3-point shot is fouled, the ball goes in, and a free throw is added, referred to as 3+1, and in some extreme cases, a technical foul and a three-second free throw.
Although the shooting percentage alone is intuitive and can also reflect the scoring efficiency of the player, it is not comprehensive. For example, Zhou Xuan attacked, was fouled when shooting, and made two free throws. Since being fouled while shooting is not counted in the number of shots, that is, it is not counted in the statistics of shooting percentage. Then the result of Zhou Xuan consuming the team's offensive power this time cannot be reflected by the hit rate.
For example, Anderson made 3-of-6 three-pointers and Pekovic made 3-of-6 two-pointers. The same 50 percent shooting rate also consumed the team's six offensive attempts, but Anderson converted those six offensive attempts into nine points, and Pekovic converted those six offensive attempts into six points. Can it help the team the same?
Because of this difference, D'Antoni, who advocates offense, does not like to use Evans, Mozgov, and Stephenson, but is particularly fond of Anderson, Fields, and Matthews. Measured by true shooting percentage, the offensive efficiency and ability of the players are not perfect, but relatively perfect.
Experts all know that Zhou Xuan's efficiency is getting higher and higher, and he is making progress again.
