Blake stayed on both sides of the foot for a very long time, and even kept switching on the foot, in addition to blocking for his teammates, Blake would also complete the catch and shoot at the moment when Nash was slightly negligent.

In addition to creating favorable space for his teammates, Blake's marking of Nash is also surprising, after the Knicks scored, or the ball was cut off by a mistake, Blake was the first to cut off the first contact between Nash and his teammates, as for spending physical strength to entangle Nash, it was the first thing Blake did after the attack became defense.

Bow Peak wouldn't defend Nash like that, no matter what, Bow Peak wouldn't position himself in the position of a blue-collar defender, and besides, such a defense would also make Bow Peak lose control of the court, and Bow Peak's role was never set to be a defender, this kind of role.

But Blake's defense can't be said to be ineffective, as long as he can withstand the gap in front of him and doesn't break through, as long as his teammates are very trustworthy, Blake's style of play has no problem, just because Blake is very clear about his positioning.

Blake does his job very well, but just like Blake has good teammates, Nash also has a group of teammates who will give people a lot of headaches, especially when these people are really crazy, it is definitely a headache for the Knicks.

Although Xiao Si did not speak before the game to provoke the Knicks, but he really acted, he still used a week to adjust his state, and he still held his breath to cut a record of 32+10 in this game, although the rebounds were much less than Xiao Si's expectations, but 32 points have also made Xiao Si sulk.

Joe's 28 points, Marion's 23 points and 10 rebounds, Cott's 12 points and 13 rebounds, plus Nash's 18 points, Barbossa's 17 points, even the Knicks' 130 points in the game can't catch up with the Suns' 134 points.

Star players always have a phenomenal day, but the day when the Knicks catch up with several players is indeed very unlucky.

However, the Knicks can't say that their performance is too bad, and some of them have set career highs, but in the end, it can only be said that the Suns did better in this game.

Mir, who shook his head, looked at the result of the game and could only hug D'Antoni who came to shake hands with grace, and said some words of encouragement to each other.

……

Looking at Blake's not very significant statistical performance in this game, Mill sighed, and looked at Blake in front of him, Mill finally asked: "Are you really sure you want to leave the Knicks family?" ”

"Winning a title is enough for me, I need a stage where I can show myself...... Mill? Thank you, Mr. Dolan, for taking care of you for more than a year! I am grateful to have had this experience, and I have this experience as the most sincere memory of my life. ”

"That's it! I know! Go down and listen! If there is news, it will be notified in the next few days. Mill looked at Blake's resolute look, shook his head, and didn't say anything more.

Blake, who bowed seventy degrees, slowly exited Mir's office, knowing that Mir had already found a home for himself, and this conversation was just the last conversation Mir had made in line with his obligations.

Seeing Blake turn away, Mill pondered for a long time, then picked up the landline and dialed a number.

After hearing the call from there, Mir first complimented him, and then said, "Dunleavy, how is it?" Blake did a great job in this game, right? I don't know what you think of the deal I'm proposing? ”

"It's just a basic quality of a blue-collar player, how can you say it's very good? Mir, I'd love to make a deal, but you're paying a little low! ”

"Low? Then tell us about the way you want to trade. ”

"As long as you're willing to trade Jay with the Clippers, I'd be happy to put any of the Clippers on the Knicks' roster, and the rest is just an addition......"

"Dunleavy, I'm going to pay the Timberwolves the top 15 pick in the trade to the Knicks, the first-round pick with the Suns, if you still don't agree, let's end the deal!"

Listening to the voice on the other side of the phone, Mir continued to say slowly in his unique magnetic voice: "You have to bear a contract of more than four years for him in the future, but after only a few games, he was injured?" Are you sure you don't want to get rid of him? ”

"The Knicks are only coming here because we have free salary space and I appreciate some of his salient features, and you think I want him because he's going to be a superstar in the future? No, even in the Knicks, he won't get many opportunities, more to say that he is a future rotation player for the Knicks, not to mention that I have to bear the essence of his future glass man? ”

Dunleavy was silent when he heard this, and after Mir said this, he didn't say a word more, and there was a dead silence between the two sides, and at the end of the dead silence, even when Mir thought that this was going to be the last thing to do, he heard a sigh and the sound of a cigarette from Dunleavy's side.

"Mir, you've won! It's really terrifying! Dunleavy hung up the phone.

When Mill heard this, he put the phone back in place, and sighed silently, but it was not for this trade, but for a worry about the future of the Knicks, many people already know that the Knicks said that they would pay tens of millions of salary contracts for the main five, but they would not pay for the sixth place.

"Jay, I really hope you can really grow this season!"

A day later, the league headquarters approved the trade between the Clippers and the Knicks, with the Knicks using the Timberwolves' top-15 picks to protect them, the Suns' unprotected first-round pick in the '05 season, and Blake's trade from the Clippers to bring in '04 high school rookie Livingston, who was seriously injured after just a dozen games.

It's a bit of a gamble for the Knicks, and the Clippers get instant combat power and a future high draft pick, while the Clippers are betting that Livingston will become worthless in the future due to physical reasons, and if so, the Clippers will make a lot of money.

There weren't so many people who said goodbye to Blake, and Gong Feng and other players who usually ate and played with him just sent text messages and called to say goodbye, no matter what reason Blake had, it was indeed Blake himself who wanted to leave.

At this time, no one knows what will happen to a high school student who arrives at the Knicks, and can there be Blake who is especially useful in certain moments?

……

After losing to the Suns, the Knicks have had some difficult wins at home against the Cavaliers, who are unusually brave, but LeBron really doesn't have any helpers to help him now.

But then in back-to-back away games, the Knicks lost again, losing to the Pistons, the old enemy of the past few seasons, with the Pistons scoring 91 points, the Knicks were defended by the Pistons only scored 85 points, creating a new low in Knicks scoring this season.

Although there are many factors that led to the loss of this game, the stability of the Knicks is indeed much worse than last season, and Bosh's rookie wall cannot be said to break through, it can only be said that Bosh is a beneficial factor in the team, but it cannot be said that Bosh can replace the responsibility of Malone and Kort last season.

For the first time after losing this game, Mill felt that he was thinking too much about the players and the future and not thinking about the actual situation of the Knicks this season.

After losing to the Pistons, the Knicks did not return to New York, but began the most difficult road trip of the season, three back-to-back away trips.

At the beginning of the season, when Mir saw such an arrangement, he arranged his staff and called to express his dissatisfaction with the league's arrangement.

It's just that Lian Mir really didn't expect the Knicks to lose in the opening game of the first game of their difficult journey.

The only good thing is that the end of this road trip is the most difficult Suns, and the other teams can only be said to be close to the playoffs, but after the final game, the Knicks' instability has also been heard by many people. (To be continued.) )
