0598:【Devil's Away】

Adelman isn't too old and dim, although he's doted on Tracy and has always pinned his hopes on him to become an enhanced version of Chris Webber.

But when he became a side effect on the pitch, he resolutely substituted for Ron Artest and Luis Scola.

Argentina's Scola and Ron Artest are undoubtedly the Rockets' most successful signings of the year in recent times...... This team, which is full of small family spirit, is difficult to do anything beyond it.

The two did change the situation, although they didn't play as much Princeton.

But it was solid to slow down the pace of the game.

The originally eye-catching UAE was pressed behind by Scola and cut the meat with a blunt knife with skillful inside skills. After Ron Artest came on the court, he also used tough defense to block Houston's flanks.

At the same time, he formed a strong defense line with Sean Battier, and even posed a threat to Li Zhen's assault...... When Battier desperately entangled Li Zhen, Ron Artest made a pincer attack in time. Li Zhen, whose projection ability has not yet reached the transformation realm, is easily deflated.

When the Rockets narrowed their deficit to eight points, the Knicks reversed course.

Li Zhen, Dragic, Gallinari, Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol form a new lineup.

Randolph quickly reined in the Argentine actor, and Luis Scola's flickering and moving was pediatric for him.

Randolph is also a very good bottom-runner, so he can easily play with the Argentine's pace.

even shouted at the UAE on the bench: "This kind of local chicken and tile dog, you will actually be by him." You watch him spin, when he goes to the basket, leans on him... Syllable! ”

Marc Gasol gave Scola a block very tacitly.

There is something about the black and white duo.

This image is very exciting for the Knicks coaching staff. They are now increasingly optimistic, and they all believe that once Randolph and Marc Gasol both play their specialties and form a tacit understanding, the Knicks will be gone from behind in the restricted area.

It's not. The two people who played at a super level tonight made the combination of Yao Shu and Scola not bargain too much.

Even if he still can't defend Yao Shu's score...... But in today's league, how many people can prevent Yao Shu's score?

Being able to drain his stamina and not allowing them to launch an offensive from the inside line is already a complete task.

The two sides went back and forth, and the first half was played quickly.

The black and white duo have stayed on the pitch to polish their chemistry, and the whole team is helping Marc Gasol integrate into the system faster.

So, the Knicks trailed by 3 points at halftime.

The Rockets took the lead in the first half, thanks to the super-standard play of Yao Shu and Artest. Yao Shu put all his energy into it, and he output without reservation...... He spent most of his physical energy.

Ron Artest also did his best, not for the honor of Houston.

He simply inspected Li Zhen.

In the players' tunnel, he even deliberately stayed there and waited for Li Zhen to come over. "How? I can even play as a three-point shooter! ”

He spared no effort to brag about his strength.

At the same time, he also stressed: "I have the same stink as Zach Randolph, Eddie Griffin, Matt Barnes, and will definitely be a strong boost for the Knicks." ”

Forehead....

Li Zhen underestimated Atai's persistence.

I can only say: I have seen your efforts, keep up the good work!

After saying this, Li Zhen always felt weird: the logic didn't make sense.

……

In the second half, the Knicks made another change.

They replaced DeAndre Jordan, who grew up in Texas, and this time attracted the cheers of some Jordan's family and friends on the sidelines.

In addition, it is paired with Eddie Griffin, Gallinari, Francisco Garcia.

The Knicks thoroughly played the starting boom.

DeAndre Jordan showed his athleticism to the fullest, the 2.12-meter-tall giant with an arm span of 2.29 meters can run like a forward, and the bounce is amazing.

The Knicks played the game as an air-catcher, because Eddie Griffin was also a flying beast.

Yao Shu was already tired in the first half, and the Knicks' fast offense quickly brought the giant down.

Adelman could only reluctantly replace Landry and prepare to play a wave of running with the Knicks.

Unfortunately, they don't have a point guard they can trust.

Tracy Maddy, who claims to be the most well-rounded small forward of all time, has been mediocre and has not been able to play as well as he should have been, under Francisco's wolf-like pressing.

In the end, the derby ended without any suspense.

Every year, the rocket, which claims that the wolf is coming, is like a block of ice thrown into boiling water, which melts completely after a few pops.

The Knicks, who are known as giving up the championship and announcing a rebuild, are fat and thin, and each rookie takes turns to show his style.

From the UAE who hit a series of jump shots in the high position, to Marc Gasol, who was in the penalty area against Yao Shu and at the same time with Zack, to the very spiritual blocking master Dragic, and also added an Italian shooter with a soul move and clever three-point.

Oh, yes. and little Jordan, who keeps tyrannizing in front of his father and fellow villagers.

The Knicks were fantastic tonight!

New York fans are as happy as the Chinese New Year.

Sure enough, Isaiah Thomas had a burning eye, and he never missed a shot in the draft.

These guys are all talents!

"We had minimal resistance and minimal repression in Houston. So, our young players broke out en masse. ”

Isaiah was even a little humble and upright after the game.

"Yi's progress is fast beyond our imagination. If he had joined the Knicks last year, I'm sure he might have been an elite player by now, but that's okay, he still has a lot of room for improvement. ”

Of course, he also had to express his affection for the UAE to Chinese journalists.

At the same time, he also expressed regret that Yao Shu could not join the Knicks.

"If Yao can join New York, we will undoubtedly be the championship team. Bruce and Yao would become the greatest duo in New York history. ”

"I have to be honest and say that Yao's stay in Houston is a bad thing for his career, he's been draining himself, he's not showing his good qualities. He needs a teammate who can bring out 200 per cent of his game, and that teammate is Bruce, who has proven that he and Yao can do it against every other player in the world. ”

"They won the Olympic gold medal."

"So, some of the people who complain about Yao should reflect on themselves."

Isaiah Thomas was as upright as ever.

Of course, this turned into a wicked Knicks head coach in the Houston newspaper the next day to stir up relations within the Rockets.

Li Zhen actually hopes to work with Yao Shu in the NBA, Yao Shu is the most powerful and orthodox traditional center in the league today, as Isaiah said, his energy is far from being exerted. Let's go slightly

With his giant build, full center skills, and soft and delicate touch, he should never be just that achievement...... He hasn't even made it past the second round so far.

Unfortunately, in the NBA, a business league, you don't have to work with whoever you want, there are so many things involved.

Fortunately, Li Zhen's appearance has improved Yao Shu's status in the history of world basketball. He won the Olympic gold medal, and he is no longer just called the Great Wall of China, but now more people are willing to call him the roof of the world. Moreover, more and more people are willing to discuss who is the greatest center in the world basketball arena between him and Shackel O'Neal.

……

On the plane to New Orleans, Li Zhen was still reviewing the derby battle for the United Arab Emirates.

The UAE had 15 points, 6 rebounds and 1 block in this game, which was his best of the season, and he was very happy because he felt that he had finally captured some NBA court feelings, although there have been many games with an average of 20+ per game before, but it always felt that those statistics were not real, more like a marionette.

Tonight, he had the feeling of being without glasses and really feeling the pitch running with the naked eye.

When Li Zhen explained the game to the United Arab Emirates, Dragic also came over to ask some questions.

Li Zhen patiently explained.

This is a huge shortening of the distance between each other.

Although Li Zhen is very strict on the training ground and the court, he is not right about people. This made the newcomers admire him more and more.

Before coming into contact with Li Zhen, they might have thought that this famous superstar in the NBA, a billionaire who has achieved great success in the investment field, and a playboy who is thriving in the entertainment industry is such a serious but approachable image.

On top of that, they all thought that Lee Zhen might not have loved basketball that much.

But now, everyone agrees that Bruce is the man they have ever seen who loves basketball the most.

……

Chris Paul hasn't had a good time since the Olympics. His performance in the final was mediocre, while Li Zhen, who was standing opposite him, was radiant, not only stealing him at the last moment, but also hitting key balls in a row.

This made Paul carry the anger of the vast majority of the fans, and the Americans took their anger out on him for not winning the gold medal.

This cast a shadow over his otherwise rising superstar.

For more than two months, he's been training hard every day and thinking about how to win back face.

Now, he finally has the opportunity to play against Li Zhen again.

He shares the same grievances as head coach D'Antoni, who arrived in New Orleans after a slump of New York to lead the Hornets to the playoffs last year as interim coach.

This season, he was directly converted to a regular position and obtained the position of deputy general manager.

Ambitious, he's been reflecting on the waterloo of his career, and he's decided to get back on the Knicks, and he's going to let the world know: Last year's best coach was supposed to be me, McD Anthony. And not the Isaiah Thomas who made a name for himself!

They all want to win back what they want and prove that they're great.

However, they failed.

The Hornets have really shown a very different outlook this year, with D'Antoni bringing his run-and-gun tactics here, and Chris Paul has been reborn with the likes of David West, Tyson Chandler, Pejastojakovic and more.

The newcomers they once played the Knicks were powerless and trailed by as many as 15 points.

Just when they think they've won.

The Knicks suddenly used a three-high lineup, and Jordan Jr., Gasol Jr., and Randolph appeared in the paint area at the same time, which was spectacular.

Originally, Tyson Chandler could still rely on mobility to bully Jr. and Randolph, but as soon as Jordan Jr. got on, the two directly exchanged pairs.

Where did David West spell Gasol and Randolph?

Therefore, although the Knicks slowed down, the rebounding ball exploded.

Then, just chiseled back the difference point by point.

The beaten wasp was angry.

You'd never guess which of the Knicks' rookies would burst out.

Each of these guys looks like a nerve knife and has the potential to suddenly become an elite player.

The Hornets lost in vain.

Chris Paul was beaten and dizzy, obviously he was higher than Li Zhen in all the data indicators tonight, why did he still lose? Why is it that his teammates are all rookies, but they can still suppress us?

Why is all the good luck his?

Sao Paul was full of resentment, and then he gave Jordan Jr. an elbow.

Then, he was sent off straight off the pitch.

The referee did not let him go of this malicious move.

In this day and age, it was not easy to be Stockton.

The Smiling Assassins even regretted it after the game.

……

After the game against the Hornets, the Knicks finally returned home.

The league schedule was not friendly to last season's Eastern champions, and the Southwest Division was arranged to line up at the start of the game. Fortunately, the Knicks had rough skin and thick meat, and they only lost to the Mavericks in one game.

It is currently in second place in the East with three wins and one loss.

The first place in the East is the fierce Little Kings, LeBron James has made a magnificent start to a four-game winning streak, and averaged 30 points, 11.5 assists and 10.5 rebounds per game Super triple-double data.

Countless basketball experts danced and chanted: The little king has raised his scepter, and the LeBron era has arrived!

The American media is very fond of making gods.

The New York media didn't dance along, though.

Although four years have passed, they still keep saying that LeBron and New York are a match made in heaven.

But now, James' status in the minds of New York fans has plummeted, and no one sees him as a savior anymore. Nor could anyone cheer him on at Madison Garden.

After all, Bruce Lee's abilities are obvious to all, and the Knicks' strength is a foregone conclusion.

Why bother to obsess with a defeated general.

The Knicks' first opponent when they returned home was the Atlanta Hawks and then the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Both games were not easy.

But what Li Zhen needs to solve more now is the internal conflict within the family, and on the first day he returned to New York, he heard that Lao Li had been kicked out of the house.

So, he decided to take Scarlett Johansson home after the Atlanta Hawks game and explain to his old mother in person what really happened that day.

At this time, he couldn't have guessed that such a bizarre event would happen next!
