Chapter 61: Against the Knicks

"Man, today's game is your old club Suns vs. Knicks, how do you feel?" Smith winked at Barkley.

"Hey, brother, that's the old yellow calendar from many years ago. I remember it's been a long time since the Suns have been broadcast live, and today the Suns were able to broadcast live in the United States, thanks to the Knicks' big market."

"Well, yes, the Suns didn't even make the playoffs last season, and they didn't make any moves this season, so I guess the playoffs are hanging again."

"Who's to say there's no action, isn't it just a rookie who was traded to get my favor? Maybe it's up to him to make the playoffs, haha."

"You can really blow, you say China Chen? No matter how good he is, he's just a rookie, not to mention that Nash failed to lead the Suns last season, and Nash is the best point guard in the league."

"Well, you say Nash? The best point guard? Forehead.. Brother, why do you always say the old yellow calendar? Well, it looks like I'm going to want to apply for a partner who knows how to watch the news," Barkley said with a funny face.

"Well, Nash averaged 15 points and 11.4 assists per game last season, isn't that good enough?"

"Hey, don't change the concept, we were talking about the best point guards, not the best point guards. I'm getting older, but you're okay

Don't try to fool the great Sir Charles," Barkley scorned Smith.

"Haha"

"I think there are only two first-line point guards in the league at present, Paul and Delon, as for Nash, both scoring and assists have been declining in the past few seasons, especially the scoring has declined greatly, in a season or two, I think Nash is even enough to choke on the second line."

"Brother, do you have a grudge against Nash?"

"You guy, I've always been a practical person, okay, hey, it looks like I'm really going to consider changing partners. It's also a person who has a different dream in the same bed and hosts it together.。。 Not happy"

"Different dreams in the same bed? Brother, although we know each other very well, we can't talk nonsense."

The two living treasures of the commentary digressed as they spoke.

"Ding, regular mission: help the team win, task reward: 500 points, 1 attribute point"

"Ding, random mission: the first game of the Sun's career, the task requires at least 20+ points of data, task reward: 1000 points, 2 attribute points"

The live game is about to begin, and both sides have fielded their starting line-ups.

Suns starters: Nash, Brown, Dudley, Hill, Morris

Knicks starters: Shambaugh, Fields, Anthony, Studemire, Chandler

"Ross Barkley, today's game should be exciting."

"Is it supposed to be rookies pecking at each other?"

"Faint, man, are you still planning to leave New York? You big mouth, don't bother me"

"Let's get down to business, in fact, the Knicks' books are actually stronger than the Suns, after all, most of the Knicks players are in the age of playing, and the Suns are right, the old old, the small"

"Yes, it's true that the Knicks also made the playoffs last year, and looking at the current record, it's possible this year."

The two were chatting, and their hands were already on the field. Chandler, the jumping man, jumped lightly on his thin legs and jumped the ball above the head of the Polish hammer Gortat.

Shambaugh receives a pass from Chandler and dribbles the ball up front.

Iman Shampert was drafted by the New York Knicks with the 17th pick in the first round. So far, he has averaged 28 minutes per game, with 9.2 points and 2.8 assists.

Iman Shampert is an extremely athletic player, and defense is one of his strengths. Shampert can attack with the ball or move off the ball, and has the ability to shoot from a distance, but lacks finishing ability under the basket. For the Knicks, who are short of major generals, he is an instant force and often plays the role of starting point guard.

Possession came to the frontcourt, facing the defensive Nash, it can be said that Iman Shambaugh's physical talent has a great advantage, but he has no intention of breaking through or shooting directly, but passes directly to Anthony, the team boss who has his back to Dudley.

As a rookie brother, it is obvious that the boss still has to listen to what he says.

"Oh, no, compared to Nash in height and weight, Shambaugh, who has a complete advantage, actually chose to pass instead of breaking. Do all the players play like this now?"

"Haha, man, I guess it's a smart rookie, haha, passing to Anthony, is that a good option too? After all, attacking the kaleidoscope is not in vain"

"Hmph, what's the use, I haven't made any achievements for so many years, I think back then, I have a fresh trick, eat all over the world, and I miss the days when I turned over the river and the sea under the basket"

The viewers who watched the live broadcast couldn't help but complain about Barkley's big living treasure and dared to say anything, but they really liked this kind of complaining commentary style.

It is said that Anthony receives the ball, dribbles with his back in one direction, and pretends to attack in this direction.

Jared Dudley is not a rookie, he knows the level of Anthony's back, he resists Anthony's strong body, and his chest senses the cheapness of the opponent's strength, he judges that Anthony should swing to the right and then attack on the left, so he doesn't shake.

"Hey, Anthony, I'm not a rookie in defense, I'll guard you tonight"

Anthony found that the strength of his back did not change, and the opponent did not block in the direction of his feint dribble.

Then, as Dudley spoke, Anthony threw a homeopathic jumper directly at the same time.

At this time, Dudley wanted to jump the block again, and the interference effect was greatly reduced.

"Bang", the basketball pops out of the frame.

"Roar, beautiful back shots, great timing of turnaround jumpers, really top offensive players"

"Haha, but it's useless, it's not a good ball if it's boring"

Chen Shu on the sidelines saw that Anthony easily shook off Dudley's defense, and admired it in his heart. But when I saw Anthony begging for a circle of fat looming under his jersey, I was stunned again. It is said that Anthony is not as self-disciplined as fellow rookies LeBron and Wade, and it seems to be true.

You must know that LeBron, who is also a star player of the 03rd class, led the team to the finals alone, although he was beaten by the old spurs, but it was enough to prove his ability. And Wade even took the aging O'Neal to win the championship and win the FMVP in the 06 finals. And Anthony has not led the team through the first round of the playoffs now, and the level of leading the team can be said to be like a cloud compared with the first two.

Therefore, as a professional basketball player, if you want to achieve greater achievements, the first thing you need to do is self-discipline, have a strong will, and no matter how strong the talent is, it will be wasted.

It can be seen from this ball just now, Anthony almost completely got rid of interference with his skills, but he didn't shoot, it seems that he should have been neglecting training for a long time. After all, in a city like the Knicks, there are countless basketball players who are not strong-willed and strong and gold-hungry.

Back on the court, Gortat took advantage of Chandler's position to grab the rebound. By this time, Nash was almost halfway through and turned back to signal Gortat to make a long pass.

"Pap" adjusted his speed and received a long pass from Gortat, non-stop, long hair fluttering, only to see Nash's vigorous figure like an arrow off the string, a sideways turn and flashed over the Shambaugh who came to intercept and was not steady, the road ahead was smooth, and the start was basketed. 2 points scored.

2:0

"Easy, although Nash has been caught up by the new generation of point guards, I have to admit that watching Nash's game is so refreshing, silky and refreshing."

"yes, it's beautiful, the reason why the Suns still have so many fans now, I think most of them are going for Nash"
