Chapter 301: The Future of the Old, Middle, and Young Combination
In his heart, he was a little confused about Gong Feng's rapid change, but Jay saw his teammates giving face so much, and he was still excited to start a one-on-one fight with Wade.
Jay and Yao Ming's heads-up behavior is interesting and capable, and when the other players pull away, the players on both sides naturally open up enough space for their most trusted teammates.
But Riley's face was very ugly when he saw Wade and O'Neal constantly making contributions that exceeded their own on both offensive and defensive ends.
A player's physical strength and fitness are definitely different when used in different ways, it is a fierce game, and some players will change their physical condition with different ways of coping.
This is an important reason why many superstar players do not seem to be effective defensively in some not very important occasions, for these stars who have a huge advantage on the offensive end, if they invest a lot of energy in defense, this will not only increase the chance of injury in ordinary games, but also reduce their physical fitness to the point where they cannot maintain their concentration and physical confrontation ability on the offensive end.
The Heat are a completely different team from the Knicks, and the roles of Wade and O'Neal play a decisive role in the Heat, and the absence of either of them could lead to the team's final collapse.
But Yao Ming and Jay are players who can be rotated among the Knicks players, and they can rest in the next game after playing this game, but if the Heat team does not have Wade or O'Neal, the team will immediately become a third-rate team in the league from a first-tier team in the league.
This is also the reason why Riley's face has become very ugly. But even knowing that this would be the case, Riley didn't dare to change it easily, so that O'Neal, a top 50 star, would not defend Yao Ming? That's a new joke!
Let Wade defend the bow peak that looks like he is staying on the sidelines and looking extremely 'harmless' in this game? Riley knows that in this game, the bow peak who was so reckless just now is very rare, if Wade is allowed to match the bow peak, Riley is sure that the bow peak will inevitably use his own attack to let Wade not get the slightest rest.
If the Knicks used this method to play the playoffs, then Riley would laugh and face the Knicks, and Riley also believed in the two superstars of his team!
But this is the regular season, or the regular season in which the Knicks don't know what the Knicks are making changes for, but looking at Mil's smiling face, Rye knows what the Knicks are playing with his twenty-year coaching career.
If Riley is now in charge of the Knicks, he will do more than Mir in this game, especially now that there are still some grievances between the two, Riley really can't do better in this game. The Knicks' tactic is a conspiracy, a conspiracy against the Heat's superstars.
All Riley can do on the sidelines now is to believe in his two superstars, and the other point is to ensure that the two of them have a rest time in this game, as for what the Knicks will do on the bench after doing so, Riley will not care much, for the current Heat team, maintaining the team's ranking is the most important thing at present.
Sure enough, in the bench lineup, Gong Feng did not go down to rest, but still won points with Allen, Hill, Dior, and Payton on the bench. Although the bench of the Heat team still actively defends in the way of positional warfare, the bench led by the three main players of Gong Feng can defend it, and Mill will be furious.
At the end of the third quarter, Wade and O'Neal came on the court, but there was still no way to close the score, and Riley voluntarily gave up after the fourth minute of the fourth quarter.
The trend led by such a lineup and such a rich style of play by the Knicks really makes many single-core, or even dual-core teams, but only playoff teams with ordinary substitutes, feel very helpless and helpless.
The strength of the Knicks lies in the individual, and it is also very closely related to the quality of the players, whether it is the Black Knicks or the optimistic Knicks, one of the statements is indeed agreed by everyone.
After Gong Feng, Aaron, and Hill are together, the tactics that can be played and selected are really changeable, from the small ball running and bombing tactics to the rigorous attack and defense of positional warfare, these three are all at ease doing everything that is in line with the tactical arrangement.
Allen said something that doesn't sound good, he is just a common shooter in the league, although after coming to the Knicks, Allen's shooting skills have become more exquisite, reducing a lot of breaking through the interior line and consuming physical play, but Allen's three-point shooting rate has risen slightly every year since he came to the Knicks, which shows Allen's three-point level, but the shooter is the shooter, and what he needs is the system.
But the combination of Gongfeng and Hill produced a very high realm of tacit understanding that everyone did not expect at that time.
Whether it is the running of the small ball, the opening of space or the small tactical tacit understanding after the fierce muscle collision required in the positional battle, the two have indeed created an undefeated record in the three years of cooperation, just like the year that the Wizards entered the finals, many people suspect that if Hill's injury had not recurred, it would not have been what would have happened in the end!
Of course, this is just an imagination of Knicks die-hard fans!
In particular, Gong Feng, a high school boy who broke the magic record in his rookie season, really surprised many people with his strength.
It's just that these are just praises, just a praise for the Knicks' achievements in recent years, but when Gong Feng gets the top salary in the Knicks, his physical ability declines in Hill, and then the Knicks are traded away after all the high-quality players of the Knicks, not many media will be optimistic.
Anyway, the current Gong Feng does seem to have not made significant progress for a long time, although the body has become much stronger, the dribbling has become more detailed, and there is no need to be as cautious as in the rookie season, but Gong Feng has been in the end for two years, and there has been no change in the scoring data!
Of course, if I have to say it, Gong Feng's hit rate has indeed increased year by year, from 40% in the past to 44% now...... This is a concrete manifestation of the improvement of the scoring ability of the bow peak.
With such a salary, the Knicks can continue to be brilliant in the East for ten years, but after this year, when the rookie contract selected in '03 expires, the Knicks may face a new path...... Ariza, who was selected in '04, can only be regarded as a future defensive giant, and his talent is not in the field of shooting.
The three defeats in a short period of time after this away game are a good illustration of this, the players are not an army of machines put together no matter what, and some human weaknesses will also be shared by the Knicks, although it is very difficult to grasp such weaknesses, but there is still this hope, isn't it?
When the Knicks, an old, middle-aged and young combination, gradually grows over time, what will become in the end is not something that many people can figure out.
However, many teams do envy the current Knicks, and no matter what, the Knicks do usher in new glories. The league's headquarters will also take a supportive attitude towards the Knicks' small trades, and other teams will not think that such a Knick will rule the NBA for many years, and this is the best status quo that the Knicks can get now, isn't it?
After yesterday's three-man meeting, Mill decided that they would take a new round of pursuit with certain orientation conditions in the future, and pursue a kind of stability for players in the future Knicks lineup.
While the players in the 03 world will continue to cultivate, they will not take more limited resources to take more openness for the players who may leave, as long as the players in the 03 world can meet the requirements of the team and meet the quantity and quality of the usual training.
At the end of the day, the NBA is still a world-famous business arena, and the Knicks need to find new, more stable support for their future profits.
However, the Knicks do not plan to trade the rookies they get, nor will they seek to trade players who have no 'significant value' in the future, such as Korver and Dior, and the Knicks now need their support to win new championships, and these rookies also want to get a better position in the league in the future of the Knicks.
The Knicks have never failed to pursue perfection, and the pursuit is always practical! After Mir pondered what Dowstern's words meant, Mir now knew what he should choose to do in the future. (To be continued.) )
