Chapter 218: Horror Substitute
With league-wide knowledge of the Knicks, the Suns also know their weaknesses. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Heading into the second half, they gave Amare Stoudemire plenty of attacking chances.
Gortat is still a little too tender and hasn't played with too many strong interior players before as a substitute, while Channing Frye is too skinny, and the two opponents are constantly fouled by Stoudemire.
Eddie Curry looked a little secretly happy below, he couldn't do without him inside, if he was on top, even if he couldn't defend, but where his size fought, Stoudemire wouldn't be so easy to rush in.
If the team can't do without him, the coach will definitely compromise, and then his internal status will be greatly increased, how can he increase the championship without the inside, when he didn't come to the Knicks, the Knicks were not a round trip.
But the situation on the court is a little different from what he imagined, the Knicks can't stop Stoudemire, because a lot of offense is done on the move, and Nash's passing is really fast and accurate.
It's just that the Suns can't guard against Lehi, Marbury, and Francis's offense, not only can't guard them, but they can't guard Crawford, Nate Robinson, and David Lee when they rotate.
In this case, everyone scores, and the Knicks are still the one who leads the score.
And even if Gortat fouls down, it doesn't matter, the Suns won't chisel in the half, Gortat goes down, Channing Frye goes on, Channing Frye fouls too much, David Lee goes on, and the Knicks have people.
On the contrary, if Eddie Curry comes up, he will not be able to keep up with the rhythm of both sides.
In addition, Stoudemire also committed a lot of fouls, and in the final moments of the third quarter, Lehi broke through Marion's defense under the cover of his teammates and rushed to the interior to cause Stoudemire's fifth foul.
The two sides entered the final quarter with a score of 88-82, but the Suns Stoudemire was temporarily unable to play, and their attacks had to be concentrated on the outside.
And Lehi was pestering Marion, Raja Bell was also targeted by Marbury, and Nash could only shoot himself in the first quarter.
Nash's shooting percentage is not bad, but the Suns can't beat the Knicks on his own.
More crucially, the explosion of the Knicks' bench lineup brought their lead to double digits.
Seeing that time was running out, the Suns could only risk Stoudemire, and the effect of Stoudemire coming up was immediate, scoring on the inside, and the second offense caused a foul on the Knicks.
But the Knicks' breakthrough master will not let go of this opportunity, at 5:18, first Lehi broke through, let the back pass to Marbury, Marbury accelerated and collided with Stoudemire who jumped up to defend.
The referee's whistle blew and Suns head coach Mike D'Antoni was so angry that he slammed his tactical board on his seat, but Stoudemire still graduated with six fouls.
They had to replace Barbosa with a small lineup for the last time, and the Knicks also replaced Crawford, and they were really not afraid of such a thing as a small lineup.
At the last moment, the two sides entered a crazy offensive battle, and the three points were you in one and I in one.
It's not that the Knicks are being led by the other side, but they have the ability, and they use the score to keep the two-point gap unchanged, and even widen.
At 1 minute and 30 seconds, Francis assisted Crawford to hit a three-pointer, and the score gap between the two sides reached 15 points, and the result of the game was no longer in suspense.
At 127:112, the Knicks won the scoring battle, Lehi's 28 points was not much, but he managed to limit Marion to 15 points, and grabbed 12 rebounds and eight assists.
Gortat, who replaced Eddie Curry, completed the task with 12 points and 9 baskets, the key is that he is hard enough, and Eddie Curry's attitude is completely different.
The Knicks' hiding of Eddie Curry also caused an uproar in the outside world, but they were able to win the Suns without Eddie Curry, which showed their strength.
There were also teams in the league like the Knicks who offered Eddie Curry, but basically they were all guys who wanted to take advantage of the fire, and they were rejected by Isiah Thomas.
His principle of picking up cheap is okay, but he must exchange famous players for it, and only choose expensive ones, not expensive ones.
On January 26, the Knicks played the Heat again, and Eddie Curry certainly didn't make the starting lineup.
This time O'Neal and Wade are back, Wade is full of resurrection, and he launched a fierce attack in the first quarter, catching the Knicks off guard, but O'Neal is obviously no longer as brave as he used to be, and it has dropped a lot compared to last season.
So Gortat also had a chance, and although he was fouled twice, he also hit three shots and didn't lose momentum on the inside.
In the first quarter, with Wade's outburst, the Knicks trailed by 5 points.
But when the bench players played on it in the second quarter, Crawford suddenly exploded, hitting four consecutive three-point shots, and stunned the Heat with 20 points in a single quarter.
Seeing that Crawford was in good shape, the team also gave him more playing time, and when they were on the field together, Lehi and others also kept feeding him the ball.
Crawford didn't use other means, that is, he kept hitting outside the three-point line, this kind of shooting explosion, the Heat had no way to defend it, how could it be impossible to pinch outside the three-point line.
So the Knicks not only overtook the score at the end of the first half, but also led by 20 points.
In the second half, Crawford was still so accurate, the Heat team was speechless, this game could not be played at all, only Wade was still breaking through and making kills, expecting a miracle.
But he was the only one on the Heat team right now, and at 6:59 in the fourth quarter, Crawford hit a two-point shot to cut 52, and the game went into garbage time, with both sides switching to the bench.
In the end, the Knicks defeated the Heat 120-96, and Crawford scored a new high, and it was the second 50-point score in his career, and the Knicks also scored 50+ Lehi and Marbury, and the firepower of other teams is not comparable at all, and the players who can score 50 points are only benches.
In this game, Lehi and Marbury both "brushed" 10 assists.
In the post-game interview, Lehi praised Crawford, "Jamal has no doubt All-Star calibre, he made a lot of sacrifices for the team's victory, and he's the best teammate." ”
The rest of his teammates were also excited, only Eddie Curry was a little depressed, and the team played so well without him.
He had realized that something was wrong, but he still couldn't pull down and admit his mistake.
If the team just hangs him out and will let him play after all, Eddie Curry is still a fluke.
Then the team's No. 28 away game against the Bucks, he is still not a starter, Eddie Curry is finally in a hurry. (To be continued.) )
