Chapter 114: Stouts Feels Wrong

Inside the inpatient unit at NYU Medical Center.

Today we welcomed a special group of guests.

Xu Xuan took the lead, followed by the Knicks' players, and even Melon followed.

After hearing the story of this little girl, everyone decided to come to the hospital to see this little girl and encourage her.

Mills was trying to make some news about it, but he was chased away by Melon waving his hand.

When the little girl was recuperating, didn't you delay the messy news?

It may be that what Xu Xuan did had an effect, this time the little girl was much better than the last time she saw her, the most important thing is that she took the initiative to cooperate with the doctor's treatment, and she spoke......

##

After winning the Hornets, the Knicks' record came to 10-11, and the Knicks finally advanced to the top eight in the East!

Not easy!

The Miami Heat was eighth before, but recently they don't seem to have good feng shui, in addition to the upset loss to the Knicks, they also lost to the Wizards and the Hawks one after another, and the Knicks later came up to grab the eighth place in the East.

Now it is estimated that the old Zen master can breathe a sigh of relief?

However, this is only the beginning of the season, and the current record is still uncountable, and if a Knick wants to make the playoffs, it is estimated that he will have to wait until the last second of the season to decide.

After all, they are not the only ones who want to bite their tails.

Of course, after the game against the Hornets, the reason why Xu Xuan's performance was so bad in the first half has been announced.

Those who sprayed Xu Xuan before were all slapped in the face.

It's not easy for people to hold on to the half with a fever of 104°F, as for the performance?

Oh, it's the best performance to be on the field!

As a result, Xu Xuan received unanimous praise again...... Anyway, the right to speak is in their hands, and they can't say what they want?

Anyway, for Xu Xuan, his life is back on track, and the cold and fever are almost fine on the second day of the competition.

The immunity of his body seemed to be beyond his imagination, and according to his previous experience, once he had a cold, he would not be able to get better for a week, but he would be fine in two or three days......

On December 7th, the Knicks traveled to the West, to Portland, Oregon.

This place in Portland is the first time Xu Xuan has been here.

Winters are cold and wet, and summers are hot and dry.

This climate is very suitable for growing roses, so there are many rose plantations in the city, which is why it is also known as the "City of Roses".

After the Knicks settled in the hotel, Xu Xuan was dragged out shopping by Tim Hardaway Jr. and others, and the reason was also very good.

City of Roses...... Rose...... Woman!

In other words, what is convenient to make an appointment here?

Someone like Tim Hardaway Jr. who goes wherever he goes is not going to miss such a wonderful place......

Xu Xuan naturally wouldn't go along with them, and after parting on the street corner, Xu Xuan took a stroll in the nearby rose garden and ate some special food here.

......

In the Portland Trail Blazers conference room.

The Trail Blazers players gathered together and were watching a video of the game.

Maybe even they didn't expect that the Trail Blazers have played second in the West and second in the league so far, and are currently second only to the Warriors who opened G, and even the traditional powerhouses such as the Spurs, Grizzlies, and Clippers have been trampled under their feet.

In this case, the Trail Blazers are naturally gaining momentum, and this combination of young + old players seems to have not only played a chemical reaction, but also made full use of this chemistry to form a qualitative change.

Comparatively speaking, the Knicks are a little weaker compared to them.

Trail Blazers head coach Terry Stoutes is giving a briefing.

Unlike the Trail Blazers, head coach Stotters doesn't think the Knicks are weak.

Or not as weak as they think!

Anyway, the Knicks are now also the top eight teams in the East, and with current or former league superstars like Melon and Xiaosi, how weak can they be?

By the way, there's also the yellow-skinned rookie.

Compared to the melon, which has no secrets in the spotlight, this rookie is the one he can't see through.

The reason why the Knicks feel like a bad team is because they are weird every time they win.

It's like killing the Cavaliers at the beginning, crushing Houston with 61 points, and beating the Heat with an upset...... Or "hard and narrowly beat" the 76ers and beat the Hornets at halftime......

It seems that there is nothing to brag about if you win these games, after all, it is either by luck or by the opponent, and you can't see where the Knicks are strong.

And once you lose, it's the kind of one that loses to the end, and even loses all the underwear......

is like losing to the Hawks twice in a row, losing to the Nets twice in a row, and being taught to be a man by the Mavericks and Thunder......

But Stotters found a problem.

That is, these games won by the Knicks, or these upsets that exploded, have nothing to do with that rookie!

You see, the Cavaliers were his lore, he scored 61 points, and the Heat was also his lore......

What would have happened if there hadn't been that rookie?

Did the Knicks lose all these games and now win them?

Of course, this statement is not necessarily true, the game is ever-changing, and he can only analyze the results according to certain specific "factors" that can be traced.

Knock knock!

Stottes tapped the table to draw the players' attention and said aloud, "I know what you're thinking, but I'm going to tell you, don't be careless, the Knicks aren't as weak as you think." ”

"Huh!"

The Trail Blazers' current star on the perimeter, Damian Lillard, chuckled, apparently disagreeing with this view.

Stouts ignored him, and at this point, an Asian face appeared on the big screen.

Black hair, black eyes and yellow skin, looks quite delicate, can even be said to be handsome, has a refreshing smile, and wears the No. 23 jersey of the Knicks.

Stotters pointed to the photo above and said: "We need to contain this Chinese, I think he is the engine of the Knicks, we must not let him take the ball comfortably and play the ball, so on the outside, defense is very important!" ”

"Damien ......"

Lillard looked over, but looked unimpressed.

Stotters frowned, he didn't like such an attitude, but he knew that he couldn't do anything with this young man, who could average 19 points, 6.5 assists, 3.1 rebounds per game in the first year, and even suppressed the "divine beast" champion Anthony Davis to win the best rookie has long been regarded by the team's top management as the cornerstone of the team's future!

Although he is only a third-year newcomer, he has the capital to be proud of!
