0275: [Isaiah is indeed shameless]
Until halftime, Isaiah Thomas deliberately did not replace Li Zhen, although the shouts of the Madison Garden Arena kept burning.
The mood of Knicks fans has long been touched by Li Zhen, and they can no longer stand the powerlessness and confusion of the players on the court against the Milwaukees.
If they hadn't seen the light, they could have endured the darkness. But now, they have seen how Li Zhen is directing the game smoothly, and they can't wait any longer.
Their reserve was finally overwhelmed by their eagerness, and they desperately needed Li Zhen to continue to shine on the court.
The doubts that were originally hidden in their hearts have long since disappeared, and those thoughts about the precious draft picks have also disappeared, and they just want Li Zhen to play and repeat the first mercury-like offensive.
But Isaiah Thomas was a man of bad taste.
He just didn't let Li Zhen play, he just wanted to make these fans anxious.
Who made you scold me every day all these years? Now it's going to make you bastards uncomfortable for a while...... It was an elaborate act of revenge against his home fans.
But when the game entered the fourth minute of the third quarter, he finally hurriedly replaced Li Zhen.
The reason why he replaced Li Zhen was not because the court's call for Li Zhen was getting louder and louder, nor because Andre Bogut was shouting and provoking the bench with consecutive goals on the court, but because Donnie Walsh couldn't bear it, he had been waiting for Li Zhen to come on the court to clean up the old mountains and rivers, but since the end of the first quarter, Thomas has always stood still, he had to personally walk from the VIP box on the high platform to the bench, he almost lost his temper in front of the public, he glared at Isaiah Thomas: What are you doing?
Where did Thomas dare to hang the boss's appetite, and quickly pushed Li Zhen up.
After all, his sexual assault lawsuit is still counting on James Dolan to compensate the black aunt with a 'work-related injury' plan.
And when Li Zhen walked onto the court, some cheers rang out in the stadium.
I have to say that Isaiah Thomas's bad taste made Li Zhen better capture the hearts of the home fans.
But now, there's a problem: the home fans are clearly looking at Lee Jin as a savior, and the Bucks are already 12 points ahead.
Although Li Zhen sat on the bench and didn't know why the Bucks' undisciplined offense was able to beat the Knicks like this, it just happened.
What's even more frustrating is that due to the all-night happiness of Eddie Curry, Stephen Marbury and others last night, they no longer have the energy to continue to give on the court, and their bodies have entered a state of load.
So, the Knicks now have a lineup on the court: Crawford, Jeffries, David Lee, Channing Fry.
It's a weak squad with no defensive concept at all, which is why Bogut can tumble unscrupulously in the box.
The most important thing is that when Li Zhen came on the court, Isaiah Thomas didn't even explain the tactics, he was forced by the pressure of the boss to let Li Zhen play.
When the whistle blew, Isaiah Thomas patted his head, remembering that he had no arrangement, he hurried to the sideline to make up for it: "Give the ball to Bruce and listen to his command." ”
Forehead....
James Dolan next to him was dumbfounded: Is this the secret of your extra $3 million a year from me as a coach?
What surprised James Dolan even more was that Li Zhen walked on the court, made a few casual gestures, and rushed to the front court with the ball.
Subsequently, he saw David Lee move from the free throw line to the top of the three-point line, and Li Zhen actually didn't use his cover to pass the defense of Mo Williams with a sharp change of direction on the spot...... This kind of visual impact of standing on the edge of the court is far from being comparable to that in the VIP box on the high platform, James Dolan saw the talent explode with his own eyes, and the moment Li Zhen quickly changed direction and rushed forward, he thought of Marbury in his youth.
What made him even more unbelievable was that after Li Zhen passed Mo Williams' defense like lightning, he quickly cut into the penalty area and faced Bogut head-on.
But just as Bogut jumped up and tried to block, he actually flicked his wrist backwards easily.
Like a long eye in the back of his head, he handed it to Channingfrye on the other side with unmistakable accuracy: the white bear-like Bogut was tricked, and his menacing jump became futile, he could only turn his head and watch Channingfrye receive the basketball and go to the basket easily!
Swish!
The basketball was caught.
A nice assist.
This immersive look and feel is far more enjoyable than what comes out on TV.
What a visual treat.
James Dolan couldn't help but applaud loudly, and the fans behind him were even more fascinated.
Bruce's aesthetic is at least ninety percent lost by the telecast, and only by standing on the sidelines can you feel 100% of his charm: the kind of graceful and sharp that breakthrough can never be shown by a fixed camera. Even... His thinness was more aggressive when he watched from the scene, because he was facing even a strong center with arms thicker than his thighs. This contrast easily shows supreme courage and momentum.
That's why Stamps loves Bruce so much, and even though the Lakers got better pieces of the championship puzzle through this deal, nostalgia still spreads in the hearts of Purple and Gold fans. None of the L.A. media outlets even came forward and said, "We're making a lot of money from this deal."
Bogut obviously didn't have the heart to appreciate Li Zhen's beauty, he only felt that Li Zhen's cunning and handsome face was hateful.
On the way back to half-time, he angrily shouted at Li Zhen: "The next time you dare to break into the penalty area, I will definitely make you fall to the ground." ”
But Li Zhen, a cunning guy, actually turned his head and asked seemingly sincerely: "Are you serious?" ”
Sounds a little gratifying.
Bogut's mentality is a little unbalanced, he doesn't like the feeling of punching cotton, and deep down he even curses: Do you think I don't dare?
But actually... He really didn't dare to do it.
He deliberately said such ferocious words to intimidate Li Zhen.
But who knew that Li Zhen actually turned around sincerely and asked if he really wanted to beat himself, it sounded like he was not afraid of it at all, and he was even looking forward to it.
This made Bogut unable to get off the stage.
And just when the Australian was about to solve his troubles with a powerful and heavy dunk on the offensive end, Li Zhen actually made a steal.
He first loosened up a step at the top of the three-point arc to let More, who pre-game self-proclaimed 'Marbury and Lee Zhen are not his opponents', let his guard down. When he stepped forward to make a jumper, he suddenly gave Jeffries a signal as he walked by.
The two instantly hugged each other, and with a sharp knife slashed the basketball straight away from Mo Williams' hands.
And at the same moment turn on a quick counterattack.
When Li Zhen rushed to the front court like lightning, and when he arrived at the penalty area first, he suddenly turned around and threw the basketball into the sky, and Jeffries, who followed up, soared into the sky...... Rumble! Smash the basketball into the hoop with one hand.
The cheers at Madison Garden were like a hurricane in the Atlantic Ocean.
Such a sharp switch between attack and defense, they haven't seen it in many years.
"This guy actually made a seamless transition into the Knicks' tattered lineup??" ESPN's basketball commentator Reggie Miller was surprised: "How many times has he played a brilliant game with his teammates? Is he a universal charger? ”
This question also appeared in the minds of all the viewers in front of the TV.
"I feel... Memphis will regret the deal. McBrin subconsciously muttered, "Jerry West is the best general manager in my mind, but he may have lost his eye on Bruce, and there is a good chance that the Knicks' draft pick this year will become worthless." ”
The discussion between the two proves how amazing Li Zhen's performance is tonight.
Although he has only 5 points and 7 assists so far. But everyone can clearly see how smooth the Knicks play when he's on the floor.
James Dolan was already ready to open champagne anyway.
He danced excitedly on the sidelines, reminiscent of even the owner of the Dallas Mavericks, who was also a wonderful man who was often full of passion on the sidelines.
Maybe it's the sudden upsurge in home momentum at Madison Garden that puts pressure on the Bucks players, or maybe Lee Zhen's performance is too uncomfortable. Or maybe it's because both Williams and Andre Bogut made targeted remarks before the game.
So, their emotions are a little out of control.
Mo Williams was originally a hot-headed point guard, but now after being stealed by Li Zhen like this, he couldn't hold his face, and he came back to the halfcourt with a super-large three-point ...... Bang!
Basketball is still iron.
The rebound was also picked up by Li Zhen running into the free throw line...... Who made him smash so hard and bounce so high?
The fact that Lee Zhen picked up the rebound made Bogut and Mo Williams unhappy at the same time, but... The unhappiness is yet to come.
Because Li Zhen ran wildly when he picked up the rebound, the Knicks players were also used to this rhythm, and they hurried to follow up.
But Bogut is a big center, how can he keep up?
Mo Williams chased hard into the restricted area, but who would have thought that Li Zhen actually jumped up and smashed the basketball to the rebound, and then David Lee, who followed up, jumped up, directly hit himself, and put the basketball into the basket.
Mo Williams, who rarely defended aggressively, suffered a crotch humiliation out of thin air, drawing laughter from Madison Garden.
This made Mo Williams grit his teeth uncomfortably and put all the accounts on Li Zhen.
But the Knicks bench was still quite 'dissatisfied' with David Lee's layup, and Eddie Curry shouted over there: Why don't you dunk?
Isaiah Thomas hurried to get Swift to warm up.
This is clearly bullying.
So, Mo Williams continued to force the attack, this time he broke through Li Zhen's defense, he smashed into the paint zone, but the throw was interfered with by David Lee.
Bang!
Basketball hits iron.
Li Zhen picked up the rebound again.
Then, launch the fast attack again.
and assisted Crawford for an easy layup.
Madison Garden was completely boiling.
What does it mean to have an immediate effect?
That's it.
Lee Jin overfulfilled the wishes of Knicks fans.
It also oversatisfies the frustrations of Mo Williams and Bogut.
The mentality of the two is becoming more and more unstable, and they are getting closer and closer to the brink of collapse.
Dangerous thoughts even began to pop up in my head.
And at this time, the Knicks were replaced by a brainless man.
When the Bucks were on serve, Isaiah Thomas sent Swift on the court, and he felt there should be a dunk here.
"I didn't just trade a Stephen Nash for the Knicks, I got a Stoudemire from the Memphis Grizzlies." Isaiah Thomas proudly said to the boss next to him: "One day, the media will rehabilitate me, and they will be sorry for the previous criticism of me, including the black aunt." ”
Forehead....
James Dolan's smile was a little restricted, and then released again, he felt that in such a happy place, he should not curse.
Although Isaiah is indeed shameless.
