Billups soon felt a wave of embarrassment, and in less than a minute, he was cleanly passed by Emperor Wu twice in a row with an astonishing first step, which was his best skill before.

For the first time, after Wu Huang broke through Billups, he strengthened Anderson, the birdman who assisted in the defense, head-on.

The second time, Wu Huang faced the Nuggets who had been prepared, and chose to make a stop-and-go jump shot at the free throw line, but not only hit another shot, but also made a foul on Anderson, who was too fierce in defense, and played a two-plus-one.

Nuggets fans in the Pepsi Center arena today have the illusion that their interior defense doesn't seem to be as solid as last season's. First and foremost was Kenyon. Martin and Birdman Anderson aren't moving as quickly as they did last season, they don't press as much as they did last season, and their defensive range is shrinking.

As for the reason? The answer has long been given by the media: Kenyon. Martin suffered another knee injury, similar to Iverson's years. Birdman Anderson is originally not so good for his age, it is impossible to be in his thirties and still be an "energy boy" every year, and there must be a limit to playing career masterpieces.

The Knicks players found out today that in addition to the Nuggets' interior defense, Kenyon is more difficult to deal with. Neither Martin nor the flamboyant Birdman Anderson seem to be as awesome as the legend says, and Chandler and Harrington's breakaways were very efficient today, which has a lot to do with the Nuggets' lack of defensive strength on the inside.

However, although Wu Huang's side scored 5 points with two consecutive breakthroughs, Anthony on the opposite side was also not soft. An unreasonable pull-out three-pointer plus a back-to-back single on the wing. It was easy to cancel out Emperor Wu's efforts.

"How do you feel like this big ass is tougher than James?" Wu Huang looked at the "melon" that scored today like chopping melons and vegetables. There was a feeling that this person was stronger than James.

However, less than a minute later, after Harrington attacked with the ball and bukkake Anthony head-on, Wu Huang quickly learned the difference between "Melon" and "Gorilla".

Although Melon's offensive ability is stronger than that of the gorilla, it is not strong enough to be one level stronger than the gorilla, and the gap between the two on the offensive end is actually not large, and the melon is only slightly better. But the gorilla's defensive and adaptable abilities. Both are at least one level stronger than Melon, not to mention the injury resistance of the two, which is why the gorilla can succeed Kobe Bryant and become the first person in the active league.

Regardless, the Knicks played their favorite pace of play late in the second quarter. Wu Huang's assist today is like no money, but Anthony and Billups of the Diggers also continue to attack and win, with the last attack of the first half, Billups once again used his strong body to push Wu Huang to make a layup, and the Nuggets tied with the Knicks 65:65 at halftime.

Wu Huang contributed an astonishing statistic of 15 points, 5 rebounds, 13 assists and 1 steal in the first half, and he seemed to have unknowingly broken a new record. He has become the youngest NBA player to hold the record for 10+ assists in a half.

Many of the commentators who broadcast the game live said that the record was just an appetizer. Today's game continues like this, and Wu Huang may have the hope of breaking the record of the youngest 20+ assists.

Throughout history, the NBA has never had a single 20+ assist winner under the age of 22, and those retired and active point guards in the league, all players who have 20+ assists are over 21 years old.

How old is Wu Huangcai? His birthday is December 12, 1989, and he is not yet 20 years old tonight, and the league may have a 20+ assists in a single game that is not yet 20 years old, and he will advance that record by a full two years.

Nuggets star Cameron Brown. Anthony scored 26 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists in the first half. Talk too much. Way's impression of both production and efficiency, the Nuggets' failure to achieve the expected results during the two-gun period, and Anthony's impression of being a "data brush", it can be said that he has never been a real league superstar.

But since last season, Anthony has really matured, first equalling George. Gervin's single-quarter scoring record and then led the team to the Western Conference Finals established him as a superstar.

This season, Anthony leads the league with an average of 30.1 points per game, and is the only player in the league to score at least 20 points per game, the key is that the team's record has not been affected by his personal high scores, Anthony has truly become one of the league's superstars since then, and he has been not inferior to Kobe, James, Wade and others in scoring efficiency and production.

At halftime, the mustache didn't have much to do with how to restrain the hot Anthony, and in the first half he tried to use Gallinari, Harrington and even David. Lee defended Anthony separately, but all three of them didn't have much to do with the latter's big ass and all-around skills.

The Knicks later tried to limit the opponent with a double bag, but it was still difficult to achieve in the face of Anthony, who had comprehensive offensive means and could do both inside and outside.

Anthony is superior to Kobe, James, Wade and other super scorers on the offensive end, because he can rely on his height, weight, explosiveness and other advantages to play like a big forward in the paint area, or dunk or throw or small hook, melon has a variety of scoring means under the basket.

When Gallinari was in charge, Antony's offensive ability with the ball on both wings and his outstanding counter-attacking ability were on full display, and he was able to shoot himself, pass the ball, or dribble through with his tentative step, and this varied offensive pattern has become a nightmare for Italians every time.

When Harrington was in charge of defense, he was limited by his athleticism and was at a disadvantage across the board, and Anthony could take advantage of a breakaway, a back-to-back shot, or a strong attack under the basket, and Harrington could hardly affect an opponent who was physically superior to him in all aspects.

David. Not to mention Lee's defense, he can only hold the penalty area. But once Anthony pulled to the outside. The Knicks' center can only stare dryly.

Anthony is physically strong. And with a historic big butt that gives him a big advantage even in the power forward position, combined with great athleticism and good hand feel, a melon that is almost insoluble is produced.

Mustache couldn't think of a way, so he simply decided to put Anthony aside for the time being and deal with other problems first.

In the first half, Billups also had 20 points and 3 assists, if the two scorers of the Nuggets were allowed to score so recklessly. It's going to be too hard for the Knicks to win this game, and they'll have to watch one of them, if not all of them, if they can't lock them all out.

Therefore, the Knicks chose to focus on defending Billups in the third quarter, which is also a helpless choice, if only Anthony gets high scores, the Knicks, who are also good at scoring, can still withstand it, didn't they also withstand Kobe Bryant in the last game?

"Guys, the Denver guys put all their energy into the offense, and we added run-backs and intersperses in the second half. I had the opportunity to cut to the basket and I felt good about my passing today. It doesn't matter if you make a few mistakes. Wu Huang is also discussing the second half of the game with his teammates, and today they don't want to let go of this victory, Wu Huang also wants to break his 20+ assists milestone in a single game.

"No problem, I know how to do it."

"Don't worry, we're not going to stand still."

“…………”

The Knicks players responded one after another when they heard this, and Wu Huang was quite a bit of a "raise your arms and shout, and the world gathered to respond" in the Knicks at the moment.

The New York Knicks are only ranked 20th in ESPN's team power rankings, which means that their team strength is considered to be the bottom in the league. But it is precisely because the team is twisted together that even a cancer like Milicic is now affected by the collective and is willing to put energy into the game.

Many people may not know what this means, and perhaps only a handful of players in the entire league such as James and Paul can do it to the extent that a player like Milicic can play seriously.

Of course, Milicic is at most serious in the game now, and he still can't lift up his energy in the usual training.

In the second half, the Knicks made some changes in the lineup, and D'Antoni sent: Wu Huang, Hughes, Chandler, Gallinari, David. Lee's small lineup is designed to enhance the impact of the front line and the jump shot ability of the guard line.

Larry. Hughes's athleticism can't keep up with the pace of the NBA game right now, but his shooting ability is still accurate, he has a lot of experience in the game, and he can occasionally come in handy.

The third quarter began with one of two free throws from Nene and Hughes then hit two mid-range shots from both wings to give the Knicks another three-point lead.

Billups, for his part, began to try to develop individual offense, and in the first half he used his strength advantage to keep breaking inside, Wu Huang had an advantage in footwork and height, but was bounced off as soon as he made contact, and the latter was similar to him in height but weighed 205 pounds, and the 25-pound weight difference made them at least two levels worse in terms of confrontation.

Although Wu Huang secretly decided at halftime that even if he sacrificed his attack in the second half, he must bring Billups to death, and he must not be allowed to give what he wants in the first half, but the reality is obviously not so easy.

At 10:46 in the third quarter, Hughes' third shot finally missed. Martin grabbed the rebound, and the Nuggets quickly launched a counterattack.

Billups accelerated to the front court after receiving the ball, and Wu Huang retreated immediately.

Mr. Key's speed is not as good as Wu Huang's now, and it stands to reason that there should be no chance in this fast attack, but Billups showed his sophistication and cunning in this attack, and his route choice in this fast attack was very exquisite, almost running against Wu Huang's ass.

"What does he mean by that?" Wu Huang didn't understand Billups's intentions, he felt that as long as he ignored it and returned to his defensive area first, what was the use of Billups running after him like this?

Billups was quick to tell him the answer, and the two slowed down outside the three-point line almost at the same time, but the difference also emerged...... After Billups stopped suddenly, he was able to shoot immediately, which was a chase three-pointer!

Wu Huang only found out at this time that although he stopped, he couldn't make a blocking action at the first time, because he had one more process of moving forward than the opponent, and when he slowed down first, then exerted force, and finally succeeded in making a blocking action, the basketball thrown by Billups had already flown over his head, and Wu Huang didn't have time to make any impact on Billups's shot.

"Huh!" Billups is best at chasing three-pointers like this, and the ball runs neatly through the net and the two teams are tied again.

"Damn, another trick." Wu Huang secretly admired in his heart, he really didn't expect this ball, and it was a small detail and lack of experience that made him fall into passivity. "But how can this be prevented?" Wu Huang quickly thought of another question, should he be like Parker, completely not involved in the competition for rebounds, and start to retreat before the offense is over?

Wu Huang thought a little too much in his heart, the next time he defended, although the Nuggets did not launch a fast attack, Billups keenly found that Wu Huang's attention did not seem to be very concentrated, and immediately raised his hand to shoot coldly, and then hit a three-pointer.

"Boy, you shouldn't be distracted at this time." Billups also shook his head at Wu Huang after scoring the goal.

Wu Huang's face turned red, he really shouldn't think so much at this time, Billups is now hitting two three-pointers in a row, and he has scored 26 points today, and D'Antoni's defensive setup at halftime was a failure at the beginning of the second half.

Billups' performance was not over yet, and the next offense he feinted to shoot and almost cheated a two-plus-one on Wu Huang, but through two free throws, he still completed a personal offensive that scored 8 points in a row, helping the Diggers surpass the Knicks by 5 points in one breath.

D'Antoni must call a timeout this timeout, Wu Huang was a little dazed by Billups's combination punch for more than a minute, and he must be called a timeout to calm down.

After the Knicks timeout, Wu Huang was temporarily replaced, and D'Antoni's move was to protect Wu Huang, worried that one minute of timeout would not be enough, so let him rest for two or three minutes before speaking, so as not to lose confidence by an old Jianghu like Billups.

Wu Huang's mentality is not so fragile, but he really needs to calm down, and by the way, learn from Billups on the field, and the opponent's wave of offense did make him very passive, and he was replaced by a player with a bad mentality, and now I am afraid that he has really been taken away by him in waves, no wonder this person is called "Mr. Key".

The core of the team was temporarily rested, but the Knicks did not collapse immediately, and they also have a second-in-command.

David. Lee was plagued by foul issues today, and did not play a few minutes in the first half, and this is the time to take over the banner of the team's offensive end.

Speaking of which, David Lee is the nominal second-in-command of the Knicks, and the opposite Billups is the same team status, and it makes no sense that the second-in-command of others has stepped up, but he has done nothing on the court. (To be continued.) )
