Because John Wallace's play exceeded Li Wei's imagination and the imagination of everyone on the floor, the Magic team was in a state of collapse throughout the first quarter.

The audience cheered for John Wallace and the cry was moving!

Don Cheney quickly called a second timeout, and then looked at his twin towers with hatred.

Such a big man, he can't outrun people, and he can't grab rebounds!

Let the two dwarves play to death, what is this thing called!

Jason Lawson and McCaskill looked at the coach and bowed their heads in shame.

Their interior offensive skills are really scummy, but they still have some rebounding ability. But as soon as you run with the opponent, the rhythm is a bit chaotic, and in addition, the opponent's shooting is mainly three-point, which is the kind of long rebound, which bounces very far and is not easy to grab!

"You ......" Don Cheney nodded on the tactical board with his pen, then sighed,

He found that he had two options, the first was to keep the big man on the field, but in this case, he was likely to continue to be blown up.

The second option is to switch to a small man and run with the opponent, so that you can suffer less in defense. But once you do this, you will completely fall into the rhythm of the other party, and the result may be even worse!

At this time, he was like a person living on the eighteenth floor, and suddenly found that the corridor was on fire, and he could only choose between being burned to death and jumping off the building and falling to his death!

It's so heartwarming!

After thinking about it for a while, Don Cheney decided to change to a small man and run two laps with the opponent to disrupt the opponent's offensive rhythm, he couldn't let the Knicks play comfortably all the time!

But when he looked back and checked the situation with the Knicks, he found that D'Antoni was also ready to change!

It seems to be five up and five down, and among the people on the field, there is a big man!

Good guy, the ball stuns me, you're going to change to a bigger one?

D'Antoni saw Don Cheney looking over, waved his hand, and chuckled: "Hey, America is such a good place, I've never played so comfortably in Italy!" ”

Don Cheney's black face suddenly became even darker.

When the Magic scored just two points, he defiantly said, "Hi Italian brother, welcome to the NBA!" ”

As a result, D'Antoni's reflex arc was really long enough to respond now, and he was speechless!

"Coach, coach!"

Magic's Brian Evans saw Don Cheney silent and hurriedly shouted that he didn't want to waste timeout.

Don Cheney came back to his senses and said busily: "They're going to change the benches, and the substitutes are all undrafted picks, and the level is a cut worse than the starters." You have to seize the opportunity to overtake the score back! ”

"Yes!" The Magic generals nodded in unison.

The Knicks changed the bench, but this wave of substitutes was also carefully selected by Li Wei.

Although the 2.11-meter center Mickey Moore is an undrafted pick, he played 13 seasons in the NBA in his previous life, and although he has been a 10,000-year substitute, he is also outstanding in the draft.

As for Kevin Ollie, Darvin Hamm, Rick Bronson and others in other positions, Li Wei can be a little impressed, and naturally like Mickey Moore, he is a player with a bit of strength. In their previous lives, they were better in the NBA than the Magic's so-called first-round and second-round picks.

Speaking from the heart, D'Antoni, who has just entered the NBA, commands positional battles, and his experience is indeed not as old as Don Cheney's, but he has strong soldiers at hand!

So on one side of the main force, on the other hand, the two sides have come and go, and the situation has begun to be a little confrontational!

When Don Cheney saw this, he burst into tears.

I use the main force here, and people use pure substitutes for five up and five down, so I can fight equally, and when the main force of the other family comes back, how can I live?

Don't take such a bully!

The first quarter of the game ended 31-10, and the Knicks led by 21 points in a single quarter, and reporters who were afraid that the world would not be chaotic came over to interview Li Wei: "Mr. Li, do you think the Knicks are now leading by 21 points, is there a certain element of luck?" ”

Li Weidao: "That's right, our luck is a little bad, several goals that should have been scored have not been scored, and the other side seems to have scored a few such goals, I believe the team will get better and better!" ”

The reporters all smiled crookedly.

We want you to be humble, you blow it like this, in case the magic team turns over, wouldn't it be very shameless?

Li Weike doesn't care whether he has face or not. The stadium is always a hero based on wins and losses, as long as the Knicks lose, no matter what he says, he will lose face and be hacked, on the contrary, as long as the Knicks can win, what is he afraid of.

It was only in the third minute of the second quarter that D'Antoni made a substitution.

However, they were in trouble this quarter, and the Magic team only kept a single tower on the court, in addition to a 2.03m undrafted pick, specifically targeting John Wallace, with the aim of not letting him score!

John Wallace wasn't feeling well, and the rest of the outside line wasn't feeling well, and they started to hit the iron.

In the average team, even if the three-point shooting rate is accurate, the shooting rate can only be maintained at more than 30 percent, in other words, the shooters spend most of their time playing iron.

That's why a lot of old-school coaches hate three-pointers – three shots and two irons, relying on the sky to eat, and when the team needs to score and break the deadlock, you have a two-thirds probability of seeing the ball "clang" and brush the basket out!

Who can stand this?

So they firmly believe that three points can't be thrown randomly, three points are the worst tactics, and only by working hard to get to the basket and shoot that kind of ball that is nine out of ten is the right way in the world!

The biggest drawback of a team that focuses on jump shots is also in the shooting percentage. When the feel comes, the dragon is as fierce, no one can stop it, and when the feel goes, it is as soft as an insect, and everyone sees it!

The Warriors, who won 73 in their previous life, were also beaten by the Lakers, who were the second-to-last in the league that season, not because of how good the Lakers' defense was, but simply because the Warriors had no sense of hand and couldn't shoot.

The only one on the Knicks who didn't hit iron in the second quarter was Steve Nash, but he didn't shoot at all, not because he shot accurately!

Nash is a traditional playmaker, what is a traditional playmaking guard?

That is, you can pass the ball and never shoot.

For example, if you're on a team with Nash and both of you are empty, Nash will definitely pass the ball to you instead of shooting it himself. And if you team up with those dual-energy guards in later generations, people will definitely throw it out and won't care about you.

In this era, there are still a lot of traditional playmaking guards, such as Kidd, such as Rajon Rondo later. Kidd and Rondo chose to pass the ball, and Li Wei can understand, because even if these two goods are empty, they will be difficult to throw.

But Nash doesn't shoot, just passing the ball there, it's going to be fatal - no one else is sure of you, what are you doing with those iron gods?

Can you die if you cast it yourself?

At halftime, the score was 52-43, and the Knicks led by just nine points. In the Magic's first-round pick last year, guard swingman Brian Evans had an amazing performance in this quarter, beating Damon Jones and scoring 15 points in the first quarter.

Li Wei came to the sidelines from the audience, discussed with D'Antoni for a while, and then pointed at Nash and scolded: "What the hell did you play in the first half, you didn't make a single shot?" In the second half of the game, I don't care how the magic is defended, you throw me ten first, do you hear me? ”

"Huh?" Nash blinked.

The average coach is to let the defender organize the offense and not throw randomly. The head coach in front of him is good, and he doesn't shoot enough all day.

It's speechless.

Of course, he didn't know that in Li Wei's previous life, the head coach of the Mavericks, Nelson Sr., always let him shoot. The problem of other people playing is too alone, and Nash's problem is that he is too alone.

In fact, the current Nash is also very powerful, like John Wallace, he went to college for four years before participating in the draft, and Kobe Bryant, O'Neal Jr. and others, who entered the NBA in the same year, are more than four years younger than him.

Four years of college experience has given Nash good tactical ability, organizational ability, and scoring ability. It's just that the Suns have too many good point guards, and it's not his turn to show himself.

At the beginning of the second half, Nash scored eight points in a row to open up the situation according to Li Wei's instructions, and Brian Evans, who shined in the second quarter on the Magic side, was replaced by Bowen and was uncomfortable to play.

As soon as Nash blossomed, the Magic had to adjust their defensive strategy and began to put pressure on the point guard, and the result was that John Wallace, who frequently blocked and dismantled with Nash, exploded again.

John Wallace was so comfortable today, he hasn't been this comfortable since he entered the NBA!

You know, this young man's life this year is called a hard one. Not to mention the official game, even if the team trains, Ewing, Aunt and others can beat him up effortlessly. As for the offensive side, needless to say, Oakley, even the team's backup forward, the aging Buck Williams, can defend him so much that he can't find the north!

Now back on the stage of the summer league, facing the weak interior line of the Magic team, he suddenly has a feeling of returning to the sea!

That's right, that's how it feels, he's John Wallace, and he's become the John Wallace who was omnipotent in college and led the team to the NCAA finals!

Scoring, rebounding, blocking, stealing, you name it!

At the end of the third quarter, the Knicks opened up the gap again 78-57, and then in the fourth quarter, the Magic lost 111-79!

The crowd applauded and cheered for John Wallace.

The hero of Syracuse scored 40 points, 13 rebounds, two blocks and a steal tonight, and was good both offensively and defensively, blinding everyone's eyes. Even Li Wei, who has been planning to brush his data, didn't expect him to be able to brush the data so perfectly!

This is definitely a vegetable abuse artifact!

Stephen Jackson had 15 points and 7 rebounds today, and although he didn't live up to the Marion level that Li Wei expected, he basically completed his task and limited the twin towers on the opposite side.

At the end of the game, he walked up to Li Wei and said in a low voice: "Coach, according to your requirements, I passed all the balls to John, if I didn't specially feed him the balls, I could have scored more than 20 points." ”

Li Weidao: "Well, I saw it, you were right to feed him the ball, but your defense didn't meet my requirements." After playing all night, I only grabbed seven rebounds, which is a bit small. ”
