Chapter 89: Strange Five Up and Five Down

Dave Cowens couldn't take it anymore and called a timeout before replacing Divac.

I've seen the abuse of vegetables, but I haven't seen the abuse of vegetables, it's a shame to leave you on the field!

The Hornets' starting power forward, Tony Farmar, was also replaced.

Famar is 2.06 meters tall, was drafted in '91, is a year older than Bowen, has been playing in overseas leagues, and is good at playing center and power forward. The Hornets signed him with a base salary this summer in the hope that he could help the team and relieve the pressure on Anthony Mason.

Anthony Mason was a small forward in New York, but unfortunately the Hornets had no one inside, so they had to put him at the power forward position. Although he performed well last season and was selected for the league's best team, he is too short to be 2.01 meters!

Cowens wanted Famar to step up at power forward and free up Anthony Mason, but it backfired.

In the last three minutes, Famar couldn't even deal with the aging Buck Williams, and gave Divacsto back everywhere, otherwise the scene would not have been so bad.

Replaced with strong center Matt Geiger, super guard Dale Curry, re-let Anthony Mason play power forward, Glenn Rice returned to his familiar small forward position, and then looked back, Cowens found that the Knicks had also been replaced!

And it's also a strange five up and five down!

Narrator Steve Martin exclaimed, "What did I see? Knicks going to go five up and five down? All-on substitution? ”

McGregor said: "It's only three minutes into the game, and the Knicks are going to replace all five main players, their head coach shouldn't be crazy, right?" ”

Steve Martin said: "yes, the Knicks' main lineup played very well, leading us by 12 points in just three minutes, I really can't think of a reason why they were all substituted!" ”

McGregor said, "I guess he must have misread his watch and thought it was garbage time!" ”

Of course, Li Wei didn't read the wrong table, he was also helpless to be replaced so early!

Among the Knicks' starting five, Oakley was suspended, and arranging Buck Williams to play the starter was actually a move to win people's hearts.

Buck, who will be forty years old in three more birthdays, does not have much physical strength, Li Wei wants to compress his playing time to less than ten minutes, and the center and big forward positions are mainly rotated by Big Z, Big Ben, and Bo Outlaw.

If everything is normal, Li Wei will definitely only let Bo Outelo replace Buck Williams, and the others will not move.

But now the situation is not normal, and the Knicks have a 12-point lead as soon as they come up. As a bad team, how can he allow the point difference to get bigger and bigger?

If you accidentally win, it's heartwarming!

Now the league is very polarized, the good teams are excellent, and the bad teams are extremely bad. Li Wei remembers that the Denver Nuggets, who won the Tanhua sign in their previous life, have lost 71 times this season, and the teams with 60+ defeats can't be counted on one hand!

The Knicks can't win more!

Every time you win, you'll be a little farther away from Nowitzki!

Before he changed the substitute to the field, Li Wei found that Dave Cowens was glaring at him, so he smiled lightly at the celebrity and said loudly: "Come on, I hope you will overtake the score as soon as possible!" ”

Li Wei actually had good intentions, he wanted to lose, but Dave Cowens's face turned black when he landed.

Isn't it just a 12-point lead, what are you proud of?

You're so rampant, see if I don't abuse you like dogs!

The Knicks' second lineup is playmaking guard Nash, shooting guard Hornacek, small forward Bowen, big forward Bo Outlaw, and center Ben Wallace.

This lineup has obvious flaws, the defenders are poor defensively, and the interior has no range at all, but he also has the advantage of being able to run!

This sudden rhythm acceleration is the most fatal, and the death of the Warriors in the future will flow in waves, and it is the same reason!

As soon as the Knicks' run unfolded, the Hornets were a little dazed, and Nash, Hornacek, and Bowen all scored three points!

When Cowens made up his mind to adjust his defense and let everyone defend himself, Nash actually played with Ben Wallace in the air!

Ben Wallace: "I don't know anything about offense, but you can still deduct two from the air!" ”

At the end of the first quarter, Dave Cowens found that the score was fixed at 42:21, and the Hornets lost by 21 points in the first quarter!

The two hosts at the scene really didn't know what to say in the face of this situation.

The Knicks have a tearful sale this year, giving away all the superstar Ewing, and half of the team is a newcomer!

And our Hornets, as a super strong team with 54 wins last season, were actually beaten by one section!

A net loss of 21 points!

If you want to say that the main force wins, the key people will all end the main force in the first three minutes!

And then what?

Our main force was beaten in the face by someone else's substitute?

Although we want to wash the floor for the home team, you guys can't wash it like this!

Steve Martin said, "Jill, let's talk about Coach Lee's five-up-five-down rotation. What do you think prompted Coach Lee to adopt such a bold rotation that further widened the score between the two teams? ”

Jill McGregor smiled wryly, his expression very embarrassed.

Steve Martin actually asked him to analyze the meaning of this move, what can be the meaning of this?

When Li Wei sent all the substitutes, he was still complaining that people had read the wrong table!

"I think it's a brainless substitution, and the Knicks are pure foolishness!"

McGregor wanted to say that, but he couldn't.

As a former NBA player, he has to act as an expert in the commentary, analyzing the deep meaning behind various behaviors for fans!

The Knicks took a big lead after the substitution, which shows that Li Wei's decision was wise and well thought out!

He's got to blow a wave!

"Well, as I said at the beginning, the Knicks actually have a very good roster, and if they're in the Western Conference, they have a chance to make the playoffs. It can be seen that in order to defeat our Hornets and get off to a good start, Coach Lee has done a lot of training in advance, including this study of our style of play, using the speed advantage of their small lineup to play fast break, and this, well, three points. ”

Steve Martin said: "You're right, the Knicks made too many threes today, and many rounds used threes as the first offensive option. In addition, they also grabbed the rebounds in the frontcourt today, and the main center Big Z, as well as the substitute Wallace, both got a lot of balls from our interior hands. ”

"So if we want our team to win, Dave Cowens needs to make some adjustments, focus on rebounding protection, and limit the opponent's fast break speed......

Speaking of clichΓ©s, McGregor is still very level, and fans think he is very reasonable. But Dave Cowens was speechless.

You say you want to protect the rebound, how to protect it?

That Ben Wallace is a short man, but he can snatch the rebound right away from our big center Mag Geiger, so I'm not going to be able to go on the court and help get it back, right?

If I were thirty years younger, I could try!
