Lehi wasn't drunk, and Marbury wasn't drunk, and the two were still more measured. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After drinking, Marbury spoke a lot, and from his words Lehi heard helplessness and strong unwillingness.

During this time, Marbury was a little angry, in addition to being angry with the media's provocation, he was also angry that some people on the team didn't help him, so he was willful.

According to him, he didn't completely mess around, he also consciously looked at what was most helpful for winning the game, and came to the conclusion that he Marbury should play the Marbury way, which was the most effective way for the team to win.

Lehi felt that this guy was stubborn and would never admit his mistakes.

However, as long as there is still a desire for victory, it is possible for everyone to communicate, and he hopes to be able to seek common ground with Marbury while reserving differences and work together for victory.

On January 15, the Knicks went to Chicago to challenge the Bulls.

The current Bulls are a youth army, and this youth army has a good record.

Among the team's main rotations, there are four rookies this season alone, in the main lineup, the seventh pick in Lore Deng, the ninth pick in the second round Chris Duhon, the substitute in the scout show Ben Gordon, and the non-draft player Andres Nocioni.

The team's other two main players, Kirk Hinrich and Eddie Curry, are also very young, and backup center Tyson Chandler and Eddie Curry "Little Shark" are also in the same year.

Perhaps it was because of the ease of relations between Lehi and Marbury after a drink, Marbury's playing returned to normal, and the Knicks, who had a seriously disorganized lineup, were attacking from the outside.

Both Koke Hinrich and Chris Dujon are aggressive defensively, and the main reason why Chris Dujon was able to put Ben Gordon off the bench as a second-round pick was the main reason.

The young Bulls are also a very good team defensively, but the two of them are definitely at a physical disadvantage compared to Lehi and Marbury.

Unlike the outside, the Bulls' interior is completely stronger than the Knicks from the main force to the bench.

The problem of the inside line, Lehi was not too lazy to be depressed, and the Knicks did not suffer against one team, but against most teams in the league.

The Knicks shoot from the outside, and the Bulls play inside.

Marbury's style has been changeable during this time, and it is still a little uncomfortable to return to normal now, and the shooting percentage of Hinrich is not good, but Lehi is completely physically crushed by Chris Duhon, allowing the opponent to play half a quarter before replacing Ben Gordon.

But Ben Gordon wasn't known for his defense in the first place, and he couldn't keep Lehi when he came up.

In the first quarter, Lehi shot nearly 80 percent from the field, but the Knicks still trailed by 2 points.

The hole in the inner line cannot be filled by his score alone.

When it came to bench time, it was obviously the Knicks' weakness again, with Ben Gordon and Nocioni on the other side, and the Knicks could hardly find any players to fight against.

Lehi was back on the court after only two minutes of rest, and he gave Ben Gordon a big hat when he got on the court.

Compared to a year ago, Lehi clearly felt his own improvement, at that time it was still a little difficult to defend Ben Gordon, and he was very troubled by the opponent's shooting speed, and now he first fought with Ben Gordon, constantly interfering closely, and then using the advantage of height and arm length to interfere with the opponent's shooting.

In addition to concentration, smart defense is a sense of rhythm, changing the rhythm of defense, disrupting the rhythm of the opponent, and often having unexpected effects, such as reducing the shooting percentage of defenders, etc., Ben Gordon was so defended by Lehi that he hit a few irons in a row.

While the Bulls were in the rotation of their interior players, their starting interior lineman Antonio Davis was injured, and the Knicks seized the opportunity to play a small highlight.

In the long season, a lot of teams have all kinds of problems, and it's part of the game, overcoming difficulties and seizing opportunities to win the game.

At halftime, the Knicks were up by five points at 42:37.

By the time of the second half, the Bulls made a change and replaced Tyson Chandler with Eddie Curry.

This change had a good effect, at the beginning of the second half, Marbury broke through to the interior and was hated by Tyson Chandler, Eddie Curry was strong and weak in offense and defense, and with Tyson Chandler to make up for it, the Bulls' interior was even stronger than the aging Antonio Davis.

In order to maintain his advantage, Lehi did not plan to take a break either.

He had a very good physical strength, when he first entered the NBA, he was not adapted to the rhythm of frequent games, and sometimes he had physical problems, but now after adapting to the high-intensity rhythm, he will not have a problem even if he plays the whole court, especially now that he is playing the No. 2 position, the confrontation is not so intense.

In the fourth quarter, the bench inside Michael Svetney left the court with six fouls, and Muhammad also fouled too much, and the Bulls took the opportunity to catch up with the trailing scores.

At the critical moment, the Bulls replaced Ben Gordon and Nocioni, two strong scoring substitutes, and replaced Chandler, who had four blocks but only scored three points.

There are pros and cons to such substitutions, and in the end, the Bulls and the Knicks are fighting again.

Kirk Hinrich controls the tempo of the attack and is very calm, not at all like a sophomore rookie.

Rushed in from 45 degrees under the cover of Nocioni, but instead of shooting, he returned the ball to Nocioni, who hit a solid two-pointer.

At 80:80, in less than 4 minutes, the two teams were tied.

On the Knicks' side, Marbury also wanted a cover, almost bursting into the same position, Marbury made a firm shot, and the two points were also hit.

Hinrich then asked the others to pull away as much as they could, and accurately stuffed the ball to Eddie Curry, who came up with a nimble turn-over jumper and threw the ball into the basket to tie it at 82-82.

In the crunch moment, Lehi didn't relent, backing Ben Gordon to give the Knicks the lead again.

However, Eddie Curry received the ball inside again, and the small hook hand equalized the score.

The Knicks had to pinch Eddie Curry, but the pinch shot at this time worked wonders, Hinrich tried to miss the shot, and the Knicks once again seized the initiative.

Coach Wilkens took a timeout to set up the game, and when he returned to the court, Lehi helped Marbury cover, and Marbury went around the defender and slammed the ball to the ground, and the basketball bounced to the free throw line.

Lehi turned and rushed over like lightning, picked up the ball and took a step forward and flew up, dunking the ball directly in front of Eddie Curry and putting the Knicks in the lead again.
