Chapter 233: Leave Plenty of Strength

The Wizards took the lead in the second game, Jerry and Haywood were put on the bench, and Kwame's main defensive object became Yao Ming, and a forward player with three-point shooting ability, especially the bottom three-point shooting is very accurate, Jarvis.

Of course, the result is temporary power forward Jeffries, the '02 rookie who will face Malone directly...... This is an extremely 'cruel' decision.

The thin young man was replaced by Eddie immediately after just three minutes on the field, or continued to be replaced by Heywood, and Kwame continued to keep an eye on Malone!

Not because of anything else, Malone's ability to attack with the ball, especially after seeing his defenders, his shooting percentage of five shots in the opening three minutes, and Jeffries's somewhat poor shooting ability were infinitely amplified by the Knicks.

It would be strange if the fast offense couldn't get forward, and the defense lost its value so much, and it would be a strange thing if it was still useful on the field.

But after Haywood came on the court, the defense could be of its own use, but there is one thing that the Wizards seem to have forgotten, that is, their own offensive ability!

Kwamei does not have the strength to play Yao Ming with his back to the basket, although his hook skills are constantly improving, but under Yao Ming's main marking, Kwamei's offensive ability in the low post under the basket is really limited in the confrontation with Yao Ming's inside.

What's more, having Haywood's 'inaction' on the outside makes the Knicks' strong defensive ability to a new level in an instant, if Jerry is a tall player with the height of a forward and the defensive ability of a power forward, this will definitely become a good partner for Kwame, but unfortunately this is just a pipe dream.

Last season, Kwame was able to limit rookie Yao Ming's play. The outside players can also limit Ray Allen, coupled with Jordan's threat to the Knicks in scoring, and the ability of other players to help defend and score, the gap in strength makes Gong Feng take risks and use everything he has to win a game.

But this season, Hill is in perfect condition, and with Malone and Bosh on the inside, it is enough to pose a great threat to the Wizards. This is not to mention the growth of players such as Gong Feng and Yao Ming in the past season, and the strength from tactics.

What's more, the Wizards after adding Carter do not have the defensive and co-defense abilities that came from various players last season, and most of them are rookie substitutes, and even if they are on the court, they have no way to give effective help to the main team.

If it were other teams, the Wizards still had the possibility of winning, but in the face of the current Knicks with Malone, the Wizards wanted to rely on their own strong strength to win. Really an unlikely fact!

Malone's desire for a championship is obvious! Although Mill still strictly controls the playing time of this league veteran, as long as Malone is on the court, he will put all his attention on Kwame alone!

Although Mill did not ask Malone to use some means, but after these two games, Malone still used a lot of small means that the referee could not see, although it did not cause any harm and big impact, but it definitely made Kwamei very uncomfortable!

The step-by-step Wizards are easy to get started. formed their own advantages, and maintained them until the last moment. If the Wizards' defense is all on Kwame alone, the Knicks have no chance of winning in this round!

Even if Kwamei in this game focuses most of his attention on defense, he only attracts the attention of the Knicks on offense. However, Carter and Arenas still could not form an effective tacit understanding...... Although the Wizards' outside defense is not weak, the Wizards' three outside players are all the kind of players who need to hold the ball to complete an offense.

Not to mention that the Knicks themselves have formed a good defensive system, and the defensive height that Thibodeau can now make the Knicks reach this season, the Knicks' own defensive ability alone cannot be considered bad.

Of course, if Gong Feng defends Arenas alone, it is possible for him to score more than 20 points on 50 percent shooting. But the Knicks have long since moved out of single-man defense mode.

No matter how the Wizards attack, the basketball court is only so big, with Yao Ming and Ma Long's interior line, plus strong enough outside defense ability, this is enough to pose the biggest threat to any breakthrough and offensive player in the league!

The Big Three model is not an ideal standard that can be achieved simply, individuals do not have such a strong offensive ability from high and low positions, and there is no sacrifice and help from individual players in some aspects, and the Big Three is not an invincible model.

This is also a big reason why Kidd chose to leave the Nets immediately after the season, if it wasn't for the Knicks' strength in the next four seasons, how could Kidd be so determined to leave the Nets? Going to the Mavericks to partner with Nelson Sr.? Kidd discovered the hidden danger of his injury, and that was after that decision was made.

In other words, Kidd doesn't think that the Nets can still find a team mate with him who can form a enough impact on the Knicks' somewhat luxurious lineup, and will soon sell the owner of his team, and still pay enough luxury tax for the Nets in the new season?

Pauline, who was watching his team play in front of the TV, also began to be expressionless, although Pauline could pay the luxury tax for the team, but it should be a championship team that can play against the Knicks, watching Carter use skillful breakthrough technology, after breaking through to the inside, he forced himself to turn around in the face of Yao Ming and made a successful layup!

On the Knicks' side, it's just the high and low positions of Malone and Yao Ming, or in the face of Kwamei's defense, Yao Ming's hook hand scores, which is very easy!

watched Arenas take the ball and forcibly break through the emergency stop shot after taking a step, and Gong Feng didn't even jump up for this, after seeing the arc of the ball, he chose to go down immediately, and Malone grabbed the rebound after the fast pass, but when the Wizards didn't even have the awareness to block, they let Allen and Gong Feng's fast down, forming a strong offensive advantage.

This famous old man in the alliance also became silent when he saw this!

No one expected that the Knicks would become so tough after Malone joined!

You must know that in the face of Carter's defense, Hill has not attacked many times one-on-one, and with Malone in the future, Hill is not fiercely rushing to grab rebounds, but begins to act as a transfer, forming the Knicks' three-line fast break mode, as long as the Wizards have the slightest carelessness, the Knicks' outside trio will definitely make this carelessness turn into their own powerful offensive timing!

Hill's strong breakthrough ability, coupled with Allen's comprehensive offensive mode, coupled with Gong Feng's rapid organization and strong projection ability, the fast attack of these three people needs Kwamei's strong defense every time to stop it with a high probability!

In this way, the Wizards will become hesitant to even rush to grab the rebounds in the front court, because the interior combination of Malone and Yao Ming is the top in the league in terms of protection for rebounds, and the passing ability of the two has also been discovered.

In the face of the Wizards' porous defensive mode, in the face of not even having a defensive system, the Knicks' offense is extremely flexible.

Leave room and exhaust it all!

This is the true portrayal of the Knicks and the Wizards now!

Pauline saw that although he was optimistic at the beginning, he didn't expect that Gong Feng, who would soon have such good results, would be able to pose such a big threat to the Wizards' defense with just a bunch of rookies and a few functional players in a team that met his requirements?

Battier, who can defend Carter, can the original empty three-pointer be so accurate? We are lacking a player like this on the Wizards!

With Gerrard's general acceleration and that rough offensive ability, in the hands of Gong Feng, it has become a sharp weapon under the offensive basket?

Seeing that Jay relied on the abilities of his teammates, could explode with Jerry, and even limited Jerry's personal play, Pollin became even more silent!

When did such a monster team appear in the eastern part of the league?

This young man named Mir has only been teaching for a few years at the Knicks? Is it enough for three years? (To be continued.) )
