Fisher's dismissal did not cause much repercussions within the Knicks, after all, everyone knew that he was a and not, and it was an inconspicuous Chinese assistant coach who really worked on the court. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The media seemed to be a bee that smelled pollen, tying up Fisher's "Friend Wife" and firing squid and hyped it, and even Anthony suffered from the pond fish, saying that Anthony was dissatisfied with Fisher's coaching style and hinted at the team's management to fire Fisher.

The media report sounds a little credible, because James was also besieged by the media because of David Blatter's dismissal half a month ago, and he also turned over the old accounts that led to Mike Brown's dismissal in the dark box and fried again, and was even dubbed the "coach killer".

As James's good brother, Anthony, who is also a superstar, was also implicated for no reason, although Anthony has always been hot-tempered, but he still behaved very rationally about this matter, and he did not respond to the media shouting that the sky was broken, so he naturally waited for the heat of the matter to cool down slowly.

For Anthony's indifference, the media did not give up, and kept asking Anthony who he wanted to be the next head coach of the Knicks, and the media generally believed that Rambis was the first choice, after all, when Fisher was not on the team, he led the team to play well as interim head coach.

Rambis was more low-key, because he knew that even if he was the interim head coach, he would eventually be replaced by Wang Zhuo, because the Chinese assistant coach who was picked up by the Zen master was not only favored by the Zen master, but also seemed to have a high prestige among the players.

Lambis had stood with Fisher in a united front to resist Wang Zhuo, but Wang Zhuo's methods of subjugating Anthony really shocked him, and since then, he has completely changed his opinion of Wang Zhuo, and he also realizes that Wang Zhuo is indeed very talented in tactical application and on-the-spot command.

The Zen master did not directly point out the specific candidates for the new head coach, and was also silent about the outside world, after all, such a thing should not be too rushed, otherwise it would be like deliberately trying to get rid of Fisher.

After Fisher's departure, the Knicks' first game was an away game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, an equally sad team, and their executive president and head coach Philip Saunders passed away from lymphoma before the start of the regular season this season, and assistant coach Sam Michel temporarily took over as the team's head coach.

At this time, Minnesota was still covered in snow and ice, and the weather was freezing, but the Timberwolves' home target center was crowded, not only welcomed back the old wolf king Kevin Garnett, but also selected Karl Anthony Towns, and traded Love in exchange for Andrew Wiggins.

Downs' performance was fully worthy of his title of No. 1 rookie, dominating the top spot of the Rookie of the Month for several months in a row, second only to Towns' Porzingis of the Knicks, and this game seems to be even more interesting because of the matchup between these two super rookies.

Rambis eventually served as the team's interim head coach under the assignment of the Zen master, but he made it clear to the Zen master that he would only be temporary, not replaced, and he just wanted to keep his job and stay on the Knicks' coaching staff as an assistant coach, otherwise, once he stepped into the position of head coach, there was absolutely no possibility of retreating.

Wang Zhuo also followed Rambis to become the team's chief assistant coach, and fully assisted the coaching staff in the next schedule to lead the Knicks to the playoffs.

Although the Knicks suffered an eight-game losing streak, they still maintained their playoff hopes, with three wins behind the Detroit Pistons in eighth place in the West and 1.5 wins behind the Bulls in ninth place in the West.

In terms of tactical arrangement, Rambis still followed Wang Zhuo's arrangement, Wang Zhuo deliberately went against the media, and did not arrange a duel between Porzingis and Towns at all, but played Anthony and Lopez's blocking tactics again, because the Timberwolves' tactics have a common feature with the Jazz, that is, they mostly end the offense with the individual ability of the star, and the defensive end is mostly one-on-one single defense.

Wang Zhuo can put Porzingis and Anthony Davis against each other, because it can see the gap between him and the top interior lineman and try to catch up with him in a certain amount of time, and the matchup with Downs will only make him see his own lack of talent, so such a duel is meaningless, Wang Zhuo believes that it is important for players to maintain enough self-confidence.

The starting lineup of the Knicks remains the same, the starting lineup of the Timberwolves is Wiggins, Towns, Prince, Rubio and Pekovic, the Timberwolves on paper are absolutely talented, but Sam Michelle's tactical system is too messy and loose, so the Timberwolves have not played a record proportional to their talent.

Wang Zhuo believes that if Tom Thibodeau coaches the Timberwolves, it will inevitably be a different picture, maybe the Timberwolves can be built into a team like the Bulls in the 10-11 season, and maybe even another regular season MVP.

The game officially started in Lopez and Pekovic's jump ball, Pekovic dialed the ball to Rubio, the Timberwolves took the lead in attacking, Rubio passed the ball to Wiggins in the half, Prince near the free throw line ran back outside the three-point line, Towns cut inside by covering the ball, Wiggins tentatively pretended to start a breakthrough, attracted the attention of defenders, and when Towns went deep into the basket, he hung directly high, Towns understood, jumped high, and pressed the ball into the basket.

It's an atypical out-inside tie-in, and it shows that the Timberwolves' system isn't that complicated overall.

Looking back at the Knicks' offense, they used exactly the same tactics when they played the Jazz, organizing the cooperation of forwards and flexible inside, ambushing two shooters on the outside, and an inside player moving left and right around the three-second zone, because the Timberwolves' defense was too monotonous, such a blocking and dismantling cooperation was easy to form a dislocation, and after the ball was transmitted several times in the hands of the Knicks players, Anthony who received the ball easily got the opportunity to cut into the inside, and in the face of Pekovic, who was not flexible enough, Anthony took advantage of his feet and easily hooked his hands, Hit a goal.

Throughout the game, Wang Zhuo did not make any targeted tactical arrangements, so that the players spontaneously formed a sense of tactical running, and the head coach of the Timberwolves Sam Michelle seemed to be more calm than Wang Zhuo, in addition to the regular timeout, he also allowed the players to play independently on the court, I don't know if it is a problem of on-the-spot adaptability, or overconfidence in the Timberwolves.

As a result, the Knicks defeated the Timberwolves on the road without pressure, and then, the management of the Knicks officially announced that they would hire Wang Zhuo as the 27th head coach in the history of the Knicks.

And the head coach of the Timberwolves, Michelle, will face the fate of being replaced by Thibodeau, and sometimes has to admit that creation makes trouble.
