338: Tell the truth

When the electronic beep that represented the end of the first quarter of the game appeared, Spike. Li looked up at the big screen at the scene.

Before the start of the game, Spike. Lee was also very excited, with an impatient expression, claiming that he wanted to see Henson. Joe and Paul make jokes.

And now, the black director is like ashes. His conspicuous orange-red outfit only made him look extremely embarrassed.

28-20, in just one quarter, the Pacers trailed the New York Knicks by eight points. You know, this is still when Anthony alone has already scored 9 points.

If it weren't for Anthony, it wasn't. Smith's brilliant play in rotation time, Spike. Lee has reason to believe that the Knicks will be trailing by double digits.

He didn't want to make a documentary for a Chinese American, and making that bet with Henson was just a whim.

Spike. Lee likes to use the perspective of black people to create films, and through films, express to the world the social phenomenon of black people in the United States. But a Chinese? Please, Spike. Li didn't understand the life of Chinese Americans.

"Guys, work hard, okay!?" At the thought of making a documentary for Henson, Spike. Lee couldn't help but get goosebumps. So he turned around and yelled at the Knicks' bench, but that didn't motivate the players, and instead of getting him to the Knicks. Woodson's disgust.

Spike. Lee is a die-hard Knicks fan, and he has his own VIP seating at Madison Square Garden. But that doesn't mean that Spike. Lee has a good relationship with everyone on the Knicks.

At least the current Knicks coach Mike. Woodson didn't like Spike very much. Lee, because as a layman, he always likes to point fingers at the team, which makes Mike . Woodson was very annoyed.

"Shut up, Spike. Mr. Lee, we know what to do! "So, see Spike. Lee yells, Mike. Woodson didn't shy away from hitting back.

The current situation was annoying enough, Spike. Lee also came to add oil and vinegar, which coach can like it?

In the first quarter of the game, the reason why the Knicks were suppressed is easy to analyze.

First, no one could contain Paul. George's singles.

Second, the Knicks will always have only one point of attack on the court, and it's either Anthony or . Smith.

So, to solve these two problems, Woodson must send someone to guard George, and then put Anthony and Smith on the court at the same time to increase the scoring points!

So, Mike. Woodson gave Anthony a task, "Game 2. You go watch for that number 24! ”

Anthony shook his hands and nodded slightly. He wants to win more than anyone else, and he doesn't care what he's going to do in order to win.

Normally, in people's perception, Cameron. Anthony is a defensive black hole. However, in fact, Anthony, who is 2.03 meters tall and weighs 109 kilograms, can defend well in terms of hardware. The reason why he doesn't defend well is because he doesn't want to defend!

Anthony's individual defense level is not very good, but it is actually average. Specifically, you can refer to the case of Anthony personally defending Kobe's back in the Western Conference Finals of 10. It can be said that Kobe Bryant did not take much advantage of the confrontation with Anthony.

But Anthony's sense of assistance defense is basically absent, changing the defense leakage occurs from time to time, the position is extremely arbitrary, and the retreat defense is also very inactive, in other words, his defense is too poor, it is all a problem of attitude.

Perhaps, this is because Anthony's physical strength is not as rich as James, Wade and others like perpetual motion machines. If you want to keep the offensive end on full fire all the time, you can't allocate your energy to the defensive end.

In Anthony's opinion, the dirty work of defending is not his job. What he should do is score all kinds of difficult points and lead the team to victory.

But anyway, Mike. Woodson has always believed that Anthony can defend well as long as he works hard. And right now, Anthony is the Knicks' best fit to compete with Paul. George is the opposite player. So, Mike. Woodson would be very "unbelievable" to give Anthony a defensive task.

But seeing Anthony nod firmly, Woodson was also a lot more relieved. As long as he is willing to work hard, as long as he is willing to work hard

"At the beginning of the second quarter, we saw the Knicks take the lead in making personnel changes! Mike. Coach Woodson will. Smith and Amare, who has just returned from injury. Stoudemire took it. In this way, Cameron. Anthony will be able to return to the number three position! There's no doubt that Coach Woodson needs Anthony against George! ”

Reggie. Miller's comments hit the nail on the head, and Woodson's intentions are clear. In response, Miller deliberately looked from the commentary table to the bench.

But he saw that Henson was not surprised or panicked by Woodson's adjustment. He just sat with his legs crossed, one hand propping his chin on, wondering if he had expected Woodson's adjustment.

And Anthony's first confrontation with George made a successful defense.

This time George received the ball and shot, but Anthony's running was unexpectedly positive, and his height of 2.03 meters was enough to interfere with George's shot. In this way, George, who performed well in the first quarter, hit the iron as soon as he came up.

But alas, the Knicks didn't become safe because of this, because Al . Horford grabbed an offensive rebound on the inside in confusion!

That's another important point that Henson has been emphasizing - frontcourt rebounding!

Although the Knicks now have two positive 2800 interior players on the floor, the current Chandler and Stoudemire are undoubtedly athletes whose fame is greater than their strength.

Studemire has been hampered with injuries this season and has been relegated to the bench. Since "The King of Fighters" left the Mavericks, he has never played a highlight performance and has always been decent.

These two guys are paired on the inside, but it is better to let Anthony play the No. 4 position with vitality. Neither Stedudemire nor the "Boxing Champion" actively stuck the top person, but they were blocked by the card master Horford, and they also lost the rebound!

Horford was in no hurry to make a second attack after grabbing the offensive rebound, because he knew that Chandler was not something to be challenged casually under the basket.

The All-Star center calmly threw the ball back into Paul's hands, and Paul faked a shot before breaking through and catching Kidd, who was on the wrong legs.

The mid-range jumper hit steadily, and the Pacers took advantage of the second offensive opportunity to extend the margin to 10 points, double digits!

"Spike. What is Lee pondering? Thinking of a name for Coach Henson's documentary? "See Paul score, Reggie. Miller couldn't help but tease.

"Damn it!" Seeing that the point difference reached double digits, Anthony was very angry. This anger will make him full of fighting spirit, but at the same time, it will also make him lose his mind.

So this time, the Knicks' offense didn't work. Anthony didn't strike iron, he didn't have a chance to strike iron at all. When the impatient Anthony lowered his center of gravity to dribble, Paul. George's long arm poked out, and he stabbed the basketball in the hands of the "social melon"!

He has excellent physical fitness and quick shots. Decisive, calm, calm, will not be easily deceived, once you make up your mind, you will never give up halfway...... In just one round, Anthony experienced George's awesomeness.

This new All-Star is really tough to deal with.

Anthony misses, and George grabs the basketball and runs all over the court. None of the Knicks were able to pull back in time, and Stoudemire and Chandler were past the age when they could run around the court and take the plunge.

So, Spike. Lee could only watch as George dunked with both hands with power and height, and Shengsheng stretched the margin to 12 points.

Look at the aging Knicks, and look at the energetic and talented Pacers, this damn drooling talent!

"Do you think that by putting Anthony against George, you will be able to contain him? Mike. Woodson thought it was simple. I don't know if Anthony will be able to contain George, but I'm sure George won't make it easier for Anthony than he was just now. ”

Henson sat on the bench and muttered to himself, already sitting and waiting for his team to pull the score away.

Seeing this, Smith stepped up, ready to share the pressure on Anthony's scoring. Mike. Woodson Jean. The start of the second quarter was also driven by this consideration.

However. Is Smith really that good? He was able to score so many points in the first quarter rotation time, mainly because of the defense. It's a bit of a powerless thunder. Alan.

Henson wanted to use Stephenson, a street kid in New York, to "entertain" in the second quarter, but he didn't expect Woodson to take the initiative to put . Brought it up.

Now that it's time to save trouble, Smith can't play against the Pacers' starting lineup with few defensive weaknesses.

Sure enough, the first attempt of the game in the second quarter missed the shot. Danny. Green was shrouded in the . In front of him, don't give him any space.

He is not afraid. Break through, because Green knows that he has two reliable partners behind him, Horford and West.

Studemire and Tyson. Chandler isn't the kind of interior player who can open up space, so Horford and West definitely have one under the basket!

This kind of trust in teammates is not something that can be seen in any team.

"What did you set up for the break?" Seeing that the Knicks missed another offense, Spike. Lee couldn't sit still. But he couldn't throw fire at Henson, so he had to take Mike. Woodson gasped.

Woodson whites Spike. Lee glanced at the black director, who made him more and more upset.

And a distraught person can't make the right decision.

Shooting iron, after coming over, the impatient Anthony just got a round of defense and became lazy again. He only wants to attack now, he only wants to score.

How long did it turn out that George used the cover to run easily, shook off Anthony, and then made another understatement layup.

With a 14-point gap, the Knicks, who are third in the East, seem to be vulnerable. The second quarter had just begun. Woodson had to call another timeout.

Spike. Lee buried his head between his hands, and he remembered Henson in his head. Every word that Joe's bastard said.

Henson. Joe said before the game that the game was already in his orbit, maybe this time he wasn't arrogant, he was ...... Tell the truth!
