In China, the CBA is also about to start.

In 2014, the Basketball Association reformed the league and introduced a policy of only one foreign player in the fourth quarter, but it didn't work. Zhou Xuan delivered a speech in China, and after the fiasco of the Asian Championships, the Basketball Association finally made up its mind that the system of only one foreign aid per team in the new season was introduced.

In the fourth quarter, foreign aid is restricted, and the 6 person-times in the 4th quarter remain unchanged, just like a doctor's order to take three tablets three times a day, three tablets at a time, and you are worried that the amount of medicine is too large and there are too many side effects, so you privately reduce it to two times a day, one tablet at a time. Does it work? Of course there is, after all, CBA has started to take medicine, but the effect of the drug will not be so obvious.

The fundamental contradiction of the CBA is that the team is still expanding while there are few players, and the limited resources of excellent professional players continue to be diluted. There are not enough people, foreign aid is made up, and the fourth quarter is restricted to a single foreign aid, and the value of Asian foreign aid suddenly doubles because they are not among the restrictions. Therefore, the basketball management center does not dare to remove Asian foreign aid, this policy was originally to Huairou Asian brother countries with the identity and mentality of a basketball power, and now it has become the opium that the CBA cannot do without.

Only foreign aid is allowed, regardless of foreign or Asia, so that at least the CBA's status quo of "people are stupid and money comes quickly". Before, even people like Artest could run to the CBA to make money.

On October 30, the Knicks opened against the Nets.

In the same city battle, both teams don't have to run far to maintain their best condition. The two teams have not competed in the preseason, and they have found other teams in the East, and the Raptors and Wizards are good training targets. They don't want their opponents to know what they're up to.

Both sides fielded ultra-luxurious starting lineups.

Knicks five: Zhou Xuan, Leonard, Rudy Gay, Bosh, Jefferson.

Nets five: Deron Williams, Joe Johnson, Anthony, Monroe, Lopez.

Looking at the starters alone, this is the most terrifying star duel in recent years. After the fight, it was a big surprise, and the Knicks quickly took the lead, not only on offense, but also on defense. Guy, in particular, defended Anthony very tightly.

With a pair of long arms and superhuman movement speed, Guy is rarely passed by a single step enough to interfere with any small forward shot.

Guy has been 19+6 for many years, but he has never found a suitable system. He had to have a shooter next to him because he was average in three-point ability. And whether it's the Grizzlies, Raptors, or Kings, the lineup that starts with him lacks a shooter and likes to let him shoot threes from the outside, which makes him average efficiency. The advantage is that I shoot a lot and practice three points.

Major magazines basically don't mention Guy, Parsons, Batum, and even Hayward can praise it. Gallinari is shooting 41% from the field and averaging 17 points per game, and some say he is a top 10 small forward and the leader of the Nuggets. What the hell is Guy worse than these guys?

In fact, except for the NBA's three big and small forwards James, Anthony, and Durant, it's really hard to say who is stronger than Gay, Paul George took a season off and was in bad shape, and DeRozan didn't have three points. None of the others scored as well as Guydo. Hayward defensively sucks and is rated better than Guy.

D'Antoni arranged for Guy to play a fast break, and in the positional offense, he leaned on the side cover to get close to the basket and played in a misplaced position, and others opened up space for him.

This is the style of play proposed by Zhou Xuan, and the coaching staff adopted it. Gay's mid-to-long-range shooting was mediocre and not very accurate last season, with most of his scoring in the low post. When he's playing up against a power forward, he's incredibly efficient. He has an amazing talent, excellent jumping, speed, explosiveness, and it is difficult to block a shot that turns and shoots with speed.

Of course, the Knicks are mainly interested in his help on the defensive end, compared with Iguodala, James, and George, Gay's defense is a little worse, and Parsons is obviously better, especially in terms of defensive breaking.

The Nets' blocking offense is not good, and with Gay, Leonard can rest assured that he can boldly defend the middle, and he can't pass him without covering Delon. Relying on the cover Bosh to change the defense, Leonard can interfere with the shot in the middle of the cross.

Barkley exclaimed: "The Knicks' two swingmen are both in their early two meters tall, have super long arm spans, and are good at preventing breakouts and interfering with shots. Zhou Xuan is also good at defending breakouts, and their outside defense is airtight this year. ”

"The Knicks haven't been bad offensively this year, they've been stronger defensively, and you can see the signs in the preseason," Smith said. The Nets were lucky today. ”

The Knicks led by 16 points at 35-19 in the first quarter.

Several stars of the Nets team were all dumb, and only Joe Johnson scored 7 points and performed okay. DeLong and Monroe are all scoreless.

In order to make Guy's better play, Zhou Xuan did not focus on breakthroughs, but just waited for a three-point opportunity on the periphery, which ensured the speed of returning to defense.

In the second quarter, Nash and Bledsoe, who had been absent for a long time, formed a double guard, with Kyle Anderson at No. 3 and Anderson on the inside with O'Neal Jr.

This lineup has super mobility. One of Kyle and Nash launched a counterattack with a pass from the back, and Bredsoe went down quickly, and although the defense was worse, the attack was extremely sharp. The defense is mainly based on compression.

The Nets spent all their money on the starters, and the only shots off the bench were Jack and Thornton.

Thorton signed a big contract with the Kings and was reduced to a garbage contract, shooting less than 40 percent from the field and 32 from three-point range last season. 7%。 He was too short to play the No. 2 position, and there were no assists in the No. 1 position. Bledsoe is also a feature, and the contract is only half of Thorton's previous share, which is considered a great value.

Nash only played 6 minutes before going off the court, Zhou Xuan returned to the court to form a double guard with Bledsoe, Carter also got the opportunity to play, playing small forward, and Anderson at the No. 4 position with Bosh firmly controlled the situation.

Richard Jefferson and Gordon are in poor condition and can only be marginal people in the team, and White Aldridge has no chance to play and can't make the squad.

Bledsoe was responsible for the misplaced breakthrough and strong attack, Lopez was too slow, always let him break through easily, and after attracting the supplementary defense, he scored a point, Zhou Xuan, Carter, and Anderson all shot three points.

The defense against Antony was a bit poor, and D'Antoni quickly replaced the blood cloth and replaced Leonard to make up for the holes in the defensive end. The Knicks led by 24 points at halftime.

In the second half, the Nets couldn't hold back. DeLong thought that with Monroe's blocking, he would be able to regain the Jazz feeling, which was not the case at all. The Knicks are better at blocking and pick-and-roll than they were last season.

The Nets let Anthony play the No. 4 position to strengthen mobility and small-ball tactics. The Knicks immediately let Guy play at the No. 4 position, leaving only Bosh at center, who was just as fast.

Zhou Xuan's counterattack was much better than Delong's, and the score difference was getting bigger and bigger. Guy played the No. 4 position, and Delon played more tangled, breaking through difficulties, and scored 4 points and 5 assists at the end of the third quarter.

The game went into garbage time early, and the five-man bench lineup of Richard Jefferson, Carter, Nash, O'Neal Jr., and Anderson continued to attack, and the Nets' bench, although young, could not beat them.

If these four veterans team up in their prime, they can fully challenge for the championship, and Anderson is suitable for the inside line, receiving a pass and shooting two three-pointers in the final quarter, and the performance is more eye-catching.

The speed is slow, the power is weak, and the only thing Nash hasn't changed is the passing awareness in the run-and-gun tactics, and he can still deliver assists.

The Knicks won the derby 126-89, 37 points.

Nash played just 18 minutes, chipped in five points and seven assists, and was very efficient. Zhou Xuan 29 minutes, 13 points, 14 assists and 1 steal. Together, the two have more assists than the Nets as a team.

Everyone didn't play more than 30 minutes, and 10 players scored in double figures, and the scoring points were so average that the Nets felt helpless. They changed coaches three times in four years, but they still couldn't find a way to win against the Knicks.

Monroe had good debut stats with 18 points and eight rebounds. However, his defense and pick-and-roll are completely unqualified, and the most suitable position for him is still a center rather than a power forward after all, and the Nets' hidden dangers began to show in the first game. The Twin Towers can't be broken up immediately, and the Nets are out of play this year.

Anthony is also the team's leading scorer, relying on individual singles rather than cooperation. Joe Johnson is ready to change teams when his contract expires, and he can't play here.

Several key Knicks players attended the press conference.

In addition to interviewing Zhou Xuan, the reporters also interviewed Nash and asked him to talk about the difference between the Knicks and the Lakers.

Nash lamented: "The thing I regret the most in my life is joining the Lakers, three years wasted, very good with the Knicks, familiar offensive system, excellent teammates. I'm going to adapt to my new role and try to play as best in the time I have. I proved that I can still play in this fight. ”

The reporters took pictures together, and there was news. In an interview, Howard, Nick Young, and Boozer were also very depressed in the Lakers. Aside from the players who left the Lakers, almost no one had a good word to say.

Bosh laughed: "It's too short, I mean, I've been playing too short. It's like this for the Nets, I'm really worried about playing like this all season, and then my stats will be very ugly. This is my contract year, and I wanted to brush the data brightly. ”

Guy, who scored 18 points in the game, was thrilled as he shot 8-of-14 from the field and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line.

"It's the game I want and it's a great feeling to finally get to a super team," Guy said. ”

The reporter asked: "Can you comment on Zhou Xuan?" ”

"He's great, I guess that's all I can say about him, it's all under his control. In the locker room he said to me: 'Rudy, you play in the first quarter, I'll pass you the ball where you feel comfortable, you have to concentrate on the ball and don't let us down, I'm sure you can do it.' He didn't break through much in the first half and made room for me. I don't have to create my own opportunities like I used to. ”

Zhou Xuan said: "I think we are invincible. This season, I think I can hit the regular season record again, as long as I keep the roster intact and there are no injuries, I also want to hit the Lakers' 33-game winning streak. Maybe it's a bit early to say this? That's early, I've already said it anyway, everyone wait to see the show! ”
