Madison Square Garden was star-studded, and director Spike Lee, as the number one big-name fan, wore the Knicks' classic blue-and-orange jersey and his delightful round-frame glasses to cheer on the home team.

"It's useless to shout louder." Tang Wenlong pursed his lips, and when he made a free throw, he saw the little old man who was jumping on the side.

"Huh!"

It was his 11th point in the first quarter as the 76ers once again led the Knicks 25-23.

The Knicks also have a good hand today, like Stoudemire, who can not only make shooting contributions in the middle distance, but also jump up to kill the 76ers' interior when the ball is given to him under the basket, and Gasol is out of the game early because of two fouls in the defense.

In the confrontation between Tang Wenlong and Anthony, Anthony is still very difficult to prevent, especially in the regular game, coupled with the blocking and covering of his teammates, he can do more changes, and Anthony shot 4 of 9 in this quarter, and also scored 11 points.

"It seems that Cameron Anthony is a little more powerful, Tang Wenlong can't prevent him." Yang Anqi turned her head to Fang Chuxia and smiled softly.

Fang Chuxia retorted: "What's the matter, isn't it true that the Knicks can't prevent Tang Wenlong." ”

Yang Anqi looked at her with a "I understand you" look, and said with a smile: "Anyway, your Tang Wenlong is the most powerful." ”

Tang Wenlong did not finish the first quarter, he consumed a lot of physical strength on the defensive end and offensive end in the first quarter, Collins grasped the dynamics on the court and replaced Tang Wenlong in advance to rest.

Tang Wenlong and Iguodala walked off the court side by side and asked, "Chandler's defense is also average, and he can't play the feeling of a pillar of optimism in the Mavericks in the Knicks." ”

Iguodala smiled. "The Dallas Mavericks are well-known in the league for their defense. But Knicks is a big mess right now. Although it can be seen that Anthony is very active in individual defense, the whole team has no system, and the defense is all one-on-one, and there is no level at all. ”

Tang Wenlong asked: "The most layered defense in the league should be the Spurs." ”

Iguodala nodded and said: "Yes, so the Spurs have been so stable for so many years, relying on their defensive system all along, every player who plays under the Spurs system is a little worse than a single defense." I was able to learn a lot of things. ”

Since Duncan entered the Spurs, the Spurs have maintained 50+ wins all year round, not only because of Duncan's stability, but also because of the stability of the Spurs' entire system. Last year, the Spurs were blacked out by the Grizzlies, which was the biggest blow to the Spurs in so many years, and head coach Popovich considered the direction of reform in the basketball era for the first time, and also smelled the gradually changing fast-paced play and the importance of the three-point shot.

"It was a very good game."

Stretching out his hand to give high-fives, Collins, Bob and other coaches opened their mouths to give praise.

The Knicks were beaten by the Heat in the playoffs last season, and at the beginning of this season, the Knicks played 7 games with 4 wins and 3 losses. Although he blew a summer of reinforcements, he didn't see much progress. But Knicks fans are still willing to pay to watch the Knicks play. Because this is New York, one of the four largest cities in the world, there is never a shortage of markets.

Against the 76ers, who are currently the first in the league, they immediately attracted a large number of die-hard fans, which is the best litmus test for the Knicks.

At the end of the first quarter, the Knicks led the 76ers by 2 points 29-27, which gave fans the dawn of victory.

Especially after the bench came up in the second quarter, Tony Douglas suddenly came to his senses, not to mention the three-point shooting from the outside, and the throwing with his body crooked on the inside could also hit, and he scored five points in a row to establish a 7-point lead for the Knicks.

At this time, the most complicated expression on the Knicks bench should be Jeremy Lin.

Originally, Bibby's injury and Davis's injury gave him hope to play, but Douglas became a stumbling block in his way forward, and the better Tony Douglas performed, the more he was denied the opportunity to play, and the more bleak his future became.

Collins called a 20-second timeout, giving the 76ers players time to adjust.

Although the Knicks are ahead, Collins is still very calm in his heart, the Knicks only have so many cards, and he still has a lot of cards in his hand that he has not finished.

Collins thought about it, or keep the bench players, including Butler, on the court, the 76ers want to go further this season, and the bench players must grow up to be able to take on a certain amount of responsibility, and he is most optimistic about the rookie Butler who is picked, at least his defense is phenomenal.

After Louis Williams came on the court, he took the ball and turned to break through Douglas and hit a drifting jumper.

The amplitude of this shot was too large, even Tang Wenlong couldn't shoot like this, and the 76ers' bench boiled all of a sudden, Tang Wenlong took the lead in clapping and cheering, and Iguodala took the lead in shaking the towel.

When Tony Douglas attacked again, a small curly-haired guy with black charcoal head appeared in front of him, wearing a black jersey at No. 21, with a serious expression like a judge.

"Rookie coming to defend me?" Douglas looked dismissive, he didn't think the rookie could be strong defensively.

But when he was starting to break through personally, he found out how powerful the opponent was, looking at the not long arm span always gave people a feeling that he was going to break him every minute, no matter how he shook, the opponent seemed to see through it, unmoved, and when it really began to break through, the rookie kept up with the speed quickly, and the basketball was almost stabbed off under the physical confrontation between the two.

"How can it be so strong? This defense is actually better than Iman? Douglas was taken aback, he thought that Shambaught was already a good defender among the rookies, but this guy who came out of nowhere actually put it better.

Butler spent the summer training for four months, and now the results are imminent.

As soon as Douglass was locked, the Knicks' bench was much less powerful, and after several rounds, the 76ers instead caught up with the score, and D'Antoni called a timeout.

After the timeout, with 7 minutes left in the second quarter, Tang Wenlong came on.

"Oh my God, that nasty guy is playing again!" Die-hard fans who support the Knicks thought about it in their hearts and couldn't help but boo.

Tang Wenlong withstood the boos and replaced Meeks.

He goes away now, and he is often booed by other fans, and he is used to booing, but the boos in some stadiums are louder, and the boos in some stadiums are smaller.

In the final analysis, no matter how loud the ground is, it is useless, you can't play professional basketball without a big heart, you can't focus on the court, and you can't become a star. (To be continued.) )
