After a day of rest, the Knicks players began to practice with the whole team during the day on the day of the game, and the training match was the most commonly used game match this season.

Bow Peak, Korver, Dior, Pachuria, Ray Allen

Jay, Hill, Bosh, Battier, and Ariza.

In the past, Ariza's position was Blake's, such a lineup is also a confrontation between the two sides with high rotation and looking for the feeling of the game, Yao Ming can't be the core in the high rotation, at this time, he will either train and increase with the help of assistants, or he will observe his teammates on the sidelines.

Payton taught Livingston how to play singles with his back, and told the rookie about some of his experience, but Livingston, who had not yet been allowed to play, could only start to aggravate and recover from injuries through assisted practice.

Although he has not even entered the Knicks' squad since the beginning of the season, and the gap is a bit big, Livingston still experiences the Knicks' attention and love for him.

It's just that this kind of attention comes from the future, not the present, and as for the love, it is more reflected in the fact that there are no old people in the team who will bully newcomers.

Today's Mir watched the game with a more serious demeanor, and even rarely reprimanded the players who did not play seriously in the game, which also led to the very serious play of this training match to recover from the state, and there was also a fierce physical confrontation.

In the end, Mir even changed several people, and sometimes, he would let the main team play against the substitute team...... This kind of substitution is usually very casual, just change the color of the jersey, but today's Mir changes very frequently, in the past, it was said that it was two people in ten minutes, and this time it was two people in three minutes.

If Mir only has the identity of a coach, the jerseys will not care, but when Mir has the team's equity, the team's full manager, and the team's coach, the three identities come together, especially when Mir is serious, no player who is not long-sighted will mess with Mir at this time.

After 40 minutes of high-intensity play, Mir did not let the players rest and stretch their bodies at this time, but started the first pre-game meeting since the season.

"Tonight's opponent is the Miami Heat, a playoff team that doesn't seem to pose any danger to us, but in the last game, the Heat were plagued by injuries and the whole team was not very neat, but this game is a different story, I need you to pay attention to it, and when I get back home, I need to see your passion and focus!"

After watching all the players become focused, Mir nodded with satisfaction, and then continued: "The key to this matchup with O'Neal is not the inside line, I believe that Yao Ming alone against O'Neal is enough, especially after Yao Ming has been aggravated in the past three seasons, he can fight O'Neill alone!" ”

"Coach, don't worry! It's not been a few years since I had a showdown with O'Neal at the pinnacle, and I did enjoy my time with him! ”

"Well, that's good! However, after Yao Ming served as the absolute main force, I also needed to give some opportunities to the newcomers, and I also wanted the main players to rest more, such as this game, I wanted the two main players to take turns to rest, which can be regarded as a surprise for the Heat team to start to be circled! ”

Without giving anyone time to ask questions, Mir continued: "Jay, Battier, Gong Feng, Bosh, Yao Ming, do you all have confidence in playing as the main force today?" ”

Battier and Jay glanced at each other, and all the substitutes also looked at Ray and Hill at this time.

Looking at the expressions of the two of them, who already knew that they would be like this, the others didn't know what to think, but replied with great confidence at this time.

……

Looking at the Knicks' starting lineup, Pakleli frowned, not understanding why the Knicks, who played more flexible with the Heat in the last game, changed the starting lineup in this game?

It wasn't until after the game that Riley knew why.

Jay's speed is about the same as Wade's, although in terms of offensive maturity, the current Wade is stronger than Jay, but Jay's shooting skills are more powerful than the current Wade.

But this situation is not impossible to deal with, as long as Wade and Haslem play a few more pick-and-roll offenses are enough to give Wade enough space to break through to the basket.

Looking at the high-speed rotation of the Knicks, Riley realized that his team had become the team of choice for the Knicks, especially when the Knicks had a very tacit understanding of the running of their teammates, and suddenly changed teammates on a large scale.

The Knicks have not shied away from their own team again, and now they are an all-star civilian team, and the words all-star and civilian seem to be somewhat contradictory, but looking at the way Allen, Hill, Yao Ming, and Gong Feng play, there are still many teams that find that the Knicks need rotation and simple tactics to find a way to win.

It's not that this kind of rotation is bad, but after the Knicks achieved great success, many teams still studied the specific tactics of the Knicks in depth, and many of the Knicks' small tactics could not be played in such a targeted situation.

In the case that the main players are left to play with confidence, or in the eyes of most of the Knicks, there is nothing wrong with being targeted, as long as better opportunities are handed over to teammates, such a Knick is easy to be defeated by some phenomenal players, such as Anthony.

In yesterday's three-person meeting, Thibodeau focused on the dangers of this situation for the Knicks, and also showed that the Knicks need to change a certain attitude of the players, and not let the Knicks immerse themselves in the idea of unlimited wins in the past.

Therefore, the rotation of the main players strengthens the individual offensive mode, strengthens the sense of honor of the collective players, and also strengthens the sense of urgency for all players to play.

For example, in this game, Mill instructed Jay to play Wade more before the game, so that Wade could put more energy into defense, and told Yao Ming that in this game, O'Neal would play as long as he wanted, and play more inside offensive balls.

As for Bow Peak? Mir didn't say anything, just patted Gong Feng on the shoulder and sighed before the game began.

Gong Feng's life is the most unbearable, in fact, this is it!

In the second half of the first quarter, Gong Feng dribbled to the halfcourt, and then saw that O'Neal and other players had not yet arrived quickly, and Yao Ming, Jay, and Wade were all slowly returning to the half court in a way to recover their strength, Gong Feng smiled gloomily.

Damon Jones, who was defending Gong Feng, was stunned for a moment when he saw Gong Feng's smile, but Gong Feng was directly in front of Jones at this time, pulling out the three-point line, shooting the basketball in his hand, and the basketball did not hesitate, and threw himself directly into the arms of the basket according to the arc given to him by Gong Feng.

Gong Feng, who finished shooting, didn't even look at the direction of the rebound, and walked back directly, at this time he happened to walk against Wade, and Wade looked at Gong Feng's three points and was stunned.

When Battier saw such a bow peak, he didn't raise his hand to celebrate with the bow peak, but was a little confused thinking about what happened today...... It seems that nothing has happened, but why is Gong Feng directly in offensive mode in this game.

Mir was happy to see Gong Feng so faceless, and turned around to look at Gentry at this time, but Thibodeau smiled bitterly.

After this game, the Heat players didn't dare to give Gong Feng any chance to shoot, but after Gong Feng scored that difficult three-point shot, he didn't dribble to the front court again, and sometimes he didn't even bother to touch the ball, and when he got to the front court, he directly handed the ball to Yao Ming or Jay on the inside, and then he stood at the corner of the open space, not moving.

Battier saw such a bow peak and also learned to stay still on the ground, and Bosh also took the initiative to distance himself on the inside, and such a Knick appeared for the first time this season.

Gong Feng's lazy look directly explained to Jay, if you kid can break through, hurry up and split the victory with Wade, if you can't, obediently hand over the ball, let me play Damon? Jones.

Although Gong Feng didn't say this, Jay looked at Gong Feng half-squatting, lazily putting it on his knees, how could he not know what Gong Feng's body language at this time meant in the same team as Gong Feng for many years? (To be continued.) )
