Chapter 118: Encountering Difficulties
With five minutes left in the game, Raja Bale hit a three-pointer from Dio's pass to give the Suns the lead again. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
This happened all the time, and the score was very tangled.
Marbury immediately hit a two-pointer from the field, and then Nash hit a mid-range shot with his teammates in the cover.
Now that both sides are scoring from the outside, there is a feeling of talking about the shooting percentage.
"Rest assured to stick it up, don't let the other party make a move easily." Lehi stood on the inside, constantly reminding.
Nate Robinson also let it go, although he is much shorter than Nash, but he has physical strength, bypassing the Suns' covering teammates and sticking to Nash, making Nash extremely uncomfortable.
Several other points were also stuck by the Knicks' players.
Nash squeezed past Nate Robinson with a change of pace, but the momentary physical confrontation also made him feel a change in his breathing, and he missed his shot before Nate Robinson caught up.
At this time, Nash's physical strength has declined, and because of the confrontation, his shooting percentage has also decreased.
Lehi carried Marion on his back, and Channing Frye grabbed the rebound and handed it to Lehi, who received the ball and pushed quickly.
Attacking directly from the back, hitting the opponent with an unstable foothold is Lehi's forte.
Running across the entire basketball court can also make Lehi accelerate to the fastest, and when he is fully speeded, there are only a few people in the league who can catch up with him, and the Suns will definitely not have it.
The fast-break one-stop dunk ended, the Suns' fast-break was powerful, but the defensive fast-break was a mess, and Lehi seemed to have entered a no-man's land.
The Suns missed several shots at this time, which became a watershed moment in the game, they lost to their smaller lineup, which they were better at, and the threat of Lehi getting the rebound directly did not anticipate at all.
"Nash rushed to the interior and made a quick layup...... Lehi had already prepared, nailing board hats. ”
"In my opinion, Lehi is Marion who can score with the ball, and the Knicks have been amazing this season."
"Marbury is a mid-range shot again, and the Suns have no way to do this."
Lehi made a three-pointer, his first three-pointer of the game...... Hit, the Suns don't have many chances. ”
As the whistle blew at the end of the game, the Knicks defeated the Suns 88-83 and won three consecutive away games, and the Knicks have shown more and more strength.
After playing three on the road, Quentin Richardson also decided to return for the No. 12 game against the Bucks.
After the Bucks got the top pick Andrew Bogut this summer, they traded Desmond Masonja for big man Mar Magloyle, and the interior strength has been greatly improved, and the record is much better than last season.
With two defensive interior players, the Knicks' inside players are not having a good time.
Quentin Richardson, who has just returned, has no hands, and Crawford and Marbury are constantly playing iron.
The most critical thing is that the Knicks' defense went wrong in this game, blocking the Suns' defense, only to be blown up by a three-point rain from TJ Ford, Morris Williams and Michael Reed.
The difference between having an interior and no interior is here, and the Bucks' four big men of 2.11m took turns on the court to give their pitchers enough confidence.
In this game, the Knicks lost 92-112.
On December 14, the Knicks suffered their first consecutive loss of the season, not inferior to the Orlando Magic.
With the same big man and three-point rain, Dwight Howard in his rookie sophomore year has also made great strides, with Eddie Curry eclipsed in front of him.
On December 16, again the same way, the Knicks lost to the Hawks again.
With big men grabbing rebounds inside and three-pointers on the outside, the Knicks' weaknesses seem to have been explored.
Lehi didn't expect that the Knicks looked so much stronger this season, and the old problems still didn't improve.
The problem of the inside line, the Knicks' inside line has become stronger this season, but the team with a solid interior line still suffers a little, especially after a few rookies have slowly been figured out.
Outside defense, the defense can't hold its breath, and it's used to gambling steals, not only Marbury and Crawford are this problem, but Nate Robinson is also like this.
At this time, Eddie Curry is going to be out again due to injury, although it is a minor injury, but it is also worse for the Knicks.
The next day, Lehi went to the arena early, but heard a quarrel.
Obediently, Marbury actually quarreled with the head coach, and Lehi hurriedly ran over.
Fortunately, it was still early at this time, and the other players didn't come, otherwise it wouldn't look good.
Seeing Lehi coming, Marbury closed his mouth and went to practice in a huff.
"You play point guard, whoever organizes, who do you let organize......" The old man was still angry.
Larry Hughes also has an opinion about Marbury's defense, obviously with such good physical fitness, but he can't meet the requirements, and he thinks Marbury is playing a big name.
Hearing this, Lehi almost knew what was going on, and he knew what Marbury was thinking.
Larry Hughes said a few words and went to the office, and Lehi hurried to Marbury's side, "Boss Ma, this is not good, is the season still long." ”
When Marbury heard Lehi speak, he was even more annoyed, "I knew you were going to teach me a lesson again, and I didn't know that I thought you were a veteran player." ”
"Don't worry, I'm on your side, the coach is stubborn, don't be angry with him, I mean this season's decision can be released, I'll go talk to you." Lehi laughed.
"Don't be, you also know that old man is stubborn, just look at me if I don't like it." Marbury and Lehi's rivalry was mainly in some tactical details, and their personal relationship was getting better and better over the summer.
"It's nothing, we're all in pursuit of victory, and the coach has a strong sense of winning and losing, as long as it's for winning, we can communicate, maybe we can ask manager Isaiah to trade a defender, but I think the most suitable option for the time being is to find someone to help you share the tasks of the organization, so that you can play more handy."
Lehi patted Marbury on the shoulder, "The team still has to make a few of our iron men comfortable, those few don't train their bodies well, and it's troublesome to keep bumping and bumping." ”
Lehi half-jokingly said a word and walked to Larry Brown's office, there are important people on the team who are not good at communication than him, so let him, a person with average communication skills, help out.
"Coach, I want to talk to you, we don't want to lose."
In the face of Lehi's straightforward speech, the expression on Larry Brown's face remained unchanged, "It's very simple not to lose, you have to do what I ask, and naturally you won't lose." ”
