After the Knicks lost to the Raptors, they started the game with a six-game losing streak.

On the 18th, Li Wei led the team to Cleveland, losing to the Cavaliers away, losing 7 in a row!

On the 19th, the Knicks came to Philadelphia with the whole team. Before the game, Li Wei took the whole team to visit Big Z.

Da Z sighed while lying on the hospital bed: "In the past, Coach Li restricted me from training and restricting me from playing, and I always felt that he was making a fuss and even being annoying. But now, I know how well-intentioned he is. Kevin, I heard you were injured too? Listen to the coach, take care of your injuries, and don't rush to come back! ”

"Big Z, don't worry, I will definitely listen to the coach." After Kevin Garnett finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Li Wei, with a complicated look in his eyes.

The whole league doesn't care about the record, only for the sake of the players, I'm afraid it's just such a coach, right?

He is so calm no matter how many goals he loses!

Nash, Stephen Jackson and others also chatted with Big Z. Like Big Z, they joined the team at the beginning of last season and know each other well. Da Yao and the others didn't recognize Da Z, and Li Wei introduced them to each other.

After walking out of the ward, everyone's mood was heavy, and the Knicks lost again against the 76ers back-to-back that night.

After an eight-game losing streak at the beginning, Knicks fans on the Internet were talking about it.

"I am personally convinced of Coach Li's ability to lose in a row, last season started with 21 consecutive defeats and broke the historical record, does he want to break his own record this season?"

"I think that only Coach Li can break Coach Li's record, and other coaches will definitely be fired by the team as long as they have half of his losing streak."

"Don't, you can't lose 21 in a row this season, there are only 50 games in total, and if you lose 21 in a row, you really can't make the playoffs!"

"Hasn't Chuck Daly woken up yet? It's time to take over the team! ”

Li Wei obviously has no intention of breaking his own record. The season started too hastily, training camp was only a few days, and it was impossible to rush to get the roster in order, and coupled with Garnett's injury and luck, it was reasonable to lose.

But the Knicks are full of talent, there is no need to mess up, the team's goal is to win!

On February 21, the Knicks returned to their home court to face the Bulls, Garnett returned, and the team also won a hearty victory!

Knicks fans saw the first win and were overjoyed.

"It's really unaccustomed to the first win of the season so early!"

"Yes, how could Coach Li win so early!"

"You think we want to win? It's not that the Knicks are too strong, it's that the Bulls are too weak! ”

"That's right, the defending champion is too uncompetitive and has delayed our coach's losing streak!"

"Thank you to the defending champions for the first win!"

"By the way, this year's defending champion should be the most rookie defending champion in history, right?"

The NBA has had a defending champion who failed to make the playoffs before, and that was the Boston Celtics in '69-70.

The Celtics won the championship in '69, and then head coach and main center Bill Russell, shooting guard Sam Jones and others retired, and the team's strength plummeted, and John Hafiecek, the first iron god before Kobe, and Nelson Sr., Jojo White, Don Cheney and others failed to bring the team to the playoffs.

This year's Bulls are on a strong trajectory and will surely follow that Celtics as the other defending champion who can't make the playoffs!

On February 23, the Knicks sat at home against the Nets.

The Nets still maintain the same lineup that reached the playoffs last season, but the state is very poor, and the Knicks have won two in a row!

John Calipari, the famous man of the generation, frowned.

After losing to the Knicks, their record became 2-8, which is the same as the Knicks' record of 8 consecutive losses in the opening game, but according to the win-loss relationship, they will be ranked behind the Knicks.

Of course, the Nets aren't the worst, with the 2-9 Bulls and Nuggets below, the 1-7 Hornets, and the 0-9 Clippers.

The Nuggets are ready to make a big deal this year, so after selecting LaFerence and signing McDies back, they did another big thing, that is, they traded for '97 prospect Billups.

Nuggets management believes that Billups is very talented, and just because Rick Pitino can't use it doesn't mean they can't use it well. On top of that, they also got other newcomers with overflowing talents, such as the drunken Keon Clarke.

Clark was so drunk that he couldn't even remember the team's tactics, and obviously couldn't start, so he had to come off the bench. Billups is sober though, and the team needs his big heart to save.

Billups really showed a big heart, the fly in the ointment is that he has a big heart in the second grade, but the shooting rate is not as good as when he was with the Celtics.

The Super Scout Show happily played iron, and the Nuggets' record was the same as last season's Celtics, and they all went away with Billups' iron.

Nuggets management didn't panic, they believed in Billups' talent, so they continued to encourage him to play iron, and the team continued to lose.

Then again, McDyce is the eye of the 95 year, Billups is the 97 year, plus the 98 year of the Tanhua Lafrentz, the Nuggets are talented, even if the record is not good this year, the future is theirs!

But the sad news soon cast a shadow over their future.

In '98, Tanhua Xiu La Frenz sprained his left knee in the game, tearing the cruciate ligament, and the season was reimbursed!

Many geniuses are ruined by injuries, and Lafrenz is no exception. He could have been the savior of the Nuggets, but unfortunately he was hit by an arrow in the knee.

McDeis, who had just signed a contract with the highest salary, must have been very helpless when he saw that the two Tanhuas who were supposed to be his right-hand men were injured and injured!

Compared to the Nuggets, the Knicks are in a much better situation. After a run-in at the start of the season, the team is gradually getting on track with Garnett's return.

On February 25, the Knicks sat at home to face the Minnesota Timberwolves, the first opponent from the West this season!

Da Yao became the starting center of the Knicks, which has become big news in China. Sports Channels have decided to increase their broadcast efforts in the NBA, especially the Knicks' games, which will not only be broadcast live on 5 programs, but also on 2 programs depending on the situation.

Li Wei's advertising bombardment during the World Cup had a very good effect, and the village spring became the best-selling mineral water in China. After eating the sweetness, the village spring beverage company increased its investment in the sports channel.

Now the sports channel is nicknamed the village women's channel and the village women's five sets by domestic fans because they always broadcast advertisements for the village women's clear spring mineral water, and even some people will write the word "five" as "nothing".

However, in this way, the mineral water is selling even more. This year, the village spring beverage company also launched two tea drinks, iced black tea and iced green tea, which were also bombarded on the village women's channel, and the sales were also very impressive.

The village women chose to broadcast today's game between the New York Knicks and the Minnesota Timberwolves, of course, because the game was full of selling points.

In the previous life, when Da Yao landed in the NBA, Olajuwon and Gorilla Ewing both retired, and Admiral David Robinson, although still playing, was in the last year of his career, averaging only 8 points and 8 rebounds per game. Therefore, the media can only hype the Yao shark duel, and the last remaining big shark of the four centers will fight against Da Yao.

In this life, Da Yao landed in the NBA relatively early, and he can go head-to-head with all the four major centers.

As mentioned earlier, the first live broadcast of an NBA game in China was the finals in 94, and the big dream of Olajuwon against the gorilla Ewing, so now Ewing is still a little more famous in China than O'Neal, and the Yao "Arangutan" showdown is still very attractive.

In addition, Ewing is the old lord of New York, and Da Yao is the new minister of the Knicks, occupying Ewing's place in the past. The propaganda of the domestic media is that the Knicks management abandoned Ewing and chose Da Yao.

Of course, this is not the case, the Knicks traded Ewing to Garnett, Da Yao arrived a year late, and New York only came after selling Da Z. But many domestic media don't care so much, it's Da Yao who replaces Ewing, and the Knicks want Da Yao not Ewing!

The peak duel between the new and old generations of centers is also a duel of national hatred and family hatred, especially because of hatred, can you take revenge on Da Yao who occupies his position?

And Da Yao, who has just entered the NBA, how should he face the terrifying opponents at the level of the four centers?

The five sets of village women made a dozen advertising words, and countless fans were immediately attracted and waited by the TV to wait for this exciting Yao Gorilla showdown!
