Coach McHale of the Rockets stood on the sidelines and calmly watched the situation on the court, the New York Knicks started Felton, Kidd, Anthony, Camby, Chandler, and the Rockets were: Jeremy Lin, Harden, Parsons, Morris and Asik.

In the last two weeks of games, Harden has regained his touch, and Jeremy Lin has also swept away the gloom, and the cooperation between the two has become more and more tacit, and McHale is not worried about the Rockets' backcourt combination.

But what worries Coach McHale the most in this game is how to curb the play of Anthony, the core of the Knicks.

"Melon" Anthony has changed his mind this season, obeying the coach's arrangement, whether it is a wing attack or a low-post hand-to-hand fight, he has no complaints, which also makes Anthony's efficiency improve again, and he is currently averaging 27.1 points, 7.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists per game and a 44.8% shooting rate, not to mention that he averages 6.7 free throws per game.

In fact, as McHale predicted, Anthony is the absolute tactical core of the Knicks, and the Rockets encountered ** annoyance at the beginning of the game: Anthony turned around with the ball and broke through to create a defensive foul on Parsons, and when the Knicks served on the sidelines, Parsons fouled Anthony again without the ball.

Just 20 seconds into the game, Parsons, the Rockets' starting small forward, had already committed two fouls, but that wasn't bad, and the worse was yet to come.

When the New York Knicks passed the ball to Anthony again, Anthony made a strong step-back jumper, and just as Parsons jumped up to block, Anthony also jumped at Parsons.

"Tut" This is the referee on the court with a fist on his right hand and slamming his left wrist, pointing at Parsons of the Rockets and saying "Beat foul".

"What?" Parsons complained to the referee in annoyance, and then looked innocently at Coach McHale, who was grim-faced.

In just 30 seconds of the opening game, Parsons had already committed three fouls, all three of which were due to Anthony, and Anthony showed his strong aggression as soon as he started.

The Rockets were forced to request a substitution after less than a minute of the opening game, with Parsons down, tall and strong.

Gao Dazhuang unexpectedly adjusted his whole jersey and came to the court, which was the first time that Gao Dazhuang had played at such an early time since entering the NBA.

However, without waiting for Tall and Strong to think about it, the Knicks attacked again, and the ball still passed to Anthony, but at this time, it became Tall and Strong who was opposite Anthony.

Gao Dazhuang looked carefully at one of the leaders of the 03 golden generation in front of him, 2.03 meters tall, with a strong body, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

Anthony is a real superstar at the same level as James and Wade, especially on offense, Anthony's ability has always been at the top of the league.

"Pap" Anthony simply dribbled twice, and suddenly took a probe step, and his body leaned back slightly and shot directly.

"So fast!" The tall man didn't make any defensive moves, firstly, because he was not prepared enough, and secondly, because Anthony's jumper was too fast.

Then there was a "brush" sound in Gao Dazhuang's ears, and then he saw Anthony smiling and turning around and running back to the halfcourt, Gao Dazhuang knew that Anthony had succeeded in attacking.

2：0

The Rockets attacked, Jeremy Lin played a block and dismantle with Harden in the high post and passed the ball to Harden who cut inside, and Harden forced a layup against Kidd with a "European step".

Although the 38-year-old Kidd Sr. has degraded athleticism, he is extremely experienced, and when he can't stop Harden from making a layup, Kidd still uses his "little tricks" to interfere with Harden's layup.

"When" Sure enough, Harden's layup was interfered with and bounced out of the basket.

Anthony looked up at where the basketball was bounced, and was about to jump to control the rebound, but there was one person who was faster than him.

"Be careful" At the moment of hearing the reminder from his teammates, an arm appeared above Anthony's head to pad the ball lightly, and with a "brush" sound, the ball went into the net.

Anthony looked back and saw that it was the Rockets' No. 14 who was tall and strong, and he had just rushed from outside the three-point line at high speed to make a basket.

"Oh" The tall and strong basket immediately won the warm applause of the fans, and many Rockets fans in the court unfurled a banner prohibiting trade, obviously they were not in favor of the team trading tall and strong.

2：2

But soon, Anthony returned the color, and was near the free throw area, and he shot with a step, but it was this same action that allowed Anthony to score another goal.

At 4-2, the Knicks took the lead again.

"Awesome" Gao Dazhuang sincerely admired in his heart, Gao Dazhuang had a certain study of Anthony before the game, and more than half of Anthony's offense started from probing, but Anthony's probing could not be prevented.

Anthony is very accustomed to receiving the ball on both wings and then staying for a moment to make what is known as a "triple threat" position: he can shoot, he can pass, he can dribble.

"When he's in a three-threat position and he's 15 feet away from the basket, I don't think there's anyone in the league who is more lethal than him," even Junior James once said.

Tall and strong knows that this is not only because Anthony has a consistent mid-range shot, but also because of his height and strength, his first move is very fast.

Sometimes Anthony uses the probe as the first step to attack the basket, sometimes he just uses this action to test the defender, if he gets space, he will shoot, but if he probes and then retracts and the defender follows, then he will dribble to the basket.

It's a series of moves and combinations, and Anthony is very well-rounded, and he can use both feet as a pivot foot, which is where Anthony gives Tall and Strong a lot of headaches.

The Rockets launched an attack, and after Harden broke into the interior line, he was surrounded by the Knicks, and Harden had no choice but to divide the ball, and the ball passed continuously outside the Knicks' three-point line to the tall and strong hands.

Tall and strong did not hesitate, directly three-point shot, he is more accustomed to being a finisher, his kicking legs, elbows, arms, wrist forward, the ball shot.

With a "brush", the tall and strong three-point shot, 4:5.

The tall and strong scored two goals in a row and successfully attracted Anthony's attention.

"Hey, good play, I was the third overall pick at the beginning," Anthony said with a sudden smile towards Gao Dazhuang.

"Oh, ...... to you" But before Gao Da Zhuang's words were finished, Anthony performed another probe step, and at this time, Gao Da Zhuang also reacted very quickly, and immediately took a step forward.

"Peng" can be at the moment when the tall and strong advance, Anthony sank his shoulders, and the two had a direct collision between flesh and meat.

With a "brush", Anthony hit again, this ball perfectly reflects Anthony's ability, and still maintains the balance of his body and throws the ball steadily in the high-intensity confrontation, which is also one of his characteristics.

6：5

Anthony's goal made Gao Dazhuang's heart also full of surging, just after halftime, Gao Dazhuang took the initiative to ask for the ball many times, Jeremy Lin hesitated, and finally did not pass the ball to Harden, who was tightly clinged to Kidd, but somewhat unexpectedly passed the ball to Gao Dazhuang, who was much more relaxed in conditions.

"Xie La" after receiving the ball, the tall Zhuang glanced at Jeremy Lin and said in Chinese.

"You're so far away from me, aren't you afraid that I'll go far?" After receiving the ball, the tall man looked up at Anthony and said.

"Oh? If you're confident, shoot it," Anthony responded with a wave of his hand.

"That's good" The tall and strong knee bent slightly, and made a shooting movement in Anthony's surprised gaze, but at the moment when he was about to shoot, the tall and strong retracted, and suddenly rushed towards Anthony with all his might.

"Good boy" Anthony yelled, and immediately stepped back to take a defensive stance.

In the face of Anthony's defense, Gao Dazhuang continued to cross and sway in the high-speed dribble, forcing Anthony to keep retreating, but at the moment when Gao Dazhuang just stepped into the free throw line, he suddenly made a sharp stop and shot directly.

With a "brush", the tall, strong, clean and beautiful returned Anthony's ball.

6：7

"It's okay to vote," the tall and strong man who was in good condition couldn't help but tease Anthony a little mischievously.

"Oh, yes, but worse than me," Anthony said, shaking his fingers.

Sure enough, turning around, Anthony launched an attack at a 45-degree angle again, still exploring the way, but at the moment when the tall and strong pounced, Anthony accelerated violently under the cover of a false back, got rid of the tall and strong defense with a stride, and instantly burst into the basket, followed Asik's layup, and made a defensive foul on Asik.

2+1！！！

"How's this ball?" After the goal, Anthony deliberately walked in front of the tall man to "show off".

Tall and strong gave Anthony a thumbs up, in fact, whether it is a breakthrough or an air cut move, Anthony's absolute speed is not very fast, but Anthony is good because his explosiveness is quite good, he is very fast when breaking through or making a turn, and he can throw the defender behind him at once, making it difficult for the opponent to keep up, at this moment Tall and Strong deeply feel that Anthony's speed has been underestimated.

Sharp breakouts, coupled with domineering interior impact, are also one reason why Anthony has become the league's most lethal player.

At 9:7, Anthony hit both free throws.

From the beginning of the game to now, Anthony scored 9 points, Gao Dazhuang scored 7 points, and the two took all the points of their respective teams, and the competition between the two also made the fans at the scene addicted.

It wasn't until the fourth minute of the game that the Rockets were driven by Harden to break the scoring monopoly of the two, and then the two sides attacked and defended each other.

At the end of the first quarter, the Rockets tied with the New York Knicks 32:32, Anthony scored 18 points in a single quarter, and the Rockets scored 15 points with a tall and strong team.

Despite being 3 points less than Anthony, Tall and Strong took fewer shots, which means that Tall and Strong shot more than Anthony because Anthony is the real core of the Knicks, while Tall and Strong is not, which is the biggest difference between the two who play best on the court.
