Chapter 105: Four Stakes

Commentators in New York and New Jersey also launched a wide range of comments around Horn's role in New Jersey at this time.

New Jersey commentator Van Negar wrote: "Horn's all-round skills will help smooth the team's dry system. If Wallace will improve the team's all-round hard power, then Horn will improve the team's all-round soft power! ”

New Jersey has high hopes for Horn, but Prague, a commentator in New York, said in a weird way: "New Jersey people think that having a Horn can change their status as a fish belly!" Horn isn't a superstar yet, and he hasn't changed the team's fundamental abilities! Horne was able to play in the Hornets because of Paul and West to lay the foundation for the team. Now that the Nets don't even have the foundation, I don't think they can save the big picture with a single role player! ”

New Jersey and New York are sworn enemies, as are the commentators on both teams, and they are both at odds with each other in their respective personal media.

No matter how much the media outside says, no matter how much the fans think, in the end, they still have to rely on strength to play.

The Nets and Hawks game kicks off on the home court of the New Jersey Nets for the first game of the season.

For the sake of popularity, the Russian boss not only organized a grand opening ceremony, but also prepared a rich reward for the spectators, as long as they came to watch the game, they would give hamburgers and drinks.

The media briefing, the fans' expectations, and the owner's bleeding made the Nets' originally low attendance come to a full house on the opening day, and the entire court was full.

The game between the Nets and the Hawks also attracted ESPN's leading commentators Van Gundy Jr., Mike Brown, and Mark Jackson to explain such a game.

Before the game, the commentator needs to attract the interest of the fans. Today's game is of interest to fans about how Horn will perform after joining the Nets.

Horn has always been a topical person, so when he gets there, the topicality is there.

Horn's entry into the Nets in the summer has made many fans look forward to seeing how good the chemistry between Horn and Paul is and Williams' chemistry?

The game didn't start, the topic fell directly to Horn's head, and at the beginning of the broadcast screen, Mike Brown said that this was the first playoff game between the Nets and the Hawks, and then he immediately said: "This is also Horn's first time playing in New Jersey, and I really want to see how Horn plays on another team!" “

"I've always thought Horn could play that well. Ball's connivance and Paul's passing were a bonus to Horn! I think it will be more difficult for Horn to get to the Nets! ”

Mike Brown has always been Horn Black, and he started the game today!

Mark Jackson also said at this time: "Horn will definitely be difficult today because I think the expectations of him are too much. Horn isn't an All-Star yet, nor is he a superstar. But now many people see him like this, which is irrational behavior! ”

Van Gundy Jr. also said at this time: "This is Horn's first game with the Nets, and I don't know if he can fit into the team, and it is really unrealistic to expect too much from Horn at this time." If Horn is the type of player who has a strong ability to play alone with the ball, the current situation has little impact on him. But Horn is not a pure ball-handling offensive player, and it would be wrong to be too optimistic about the situation! ”

All three commentators had reservations about Horn, and the young general Everey Johnson also had some reservations about Horn's use, and he didn't put Horn in the starting lineup as soon as he started. His starting line-up was the same as last year's.

This starting lineup of the Nets, if Williams still has the strength of the Jazz morale, can lead it.

But the problem is that Williams won't organize since he arrived at the Nets, he can't organize, the team's offense is a mess, the team's offense is very, very rigid, Lopez's offensive ability is not strong, Henry Foss can't attack, Wallace's offense is extremely unstable, and Stevenson can only shoot open threes.

This kind of lineup is not organized by anyone, and it has no offensive ability at all, and Williams's own forced attack is not very strong.

Halfway through the first quarter, the Nets lost extremely miserably 7:15, the Nets' offensive ability was so pitiful, after 8 minutes, they scored 7 points, and they couldn't even score a point in a minute.

The Nets lineup really has no offensive ability, the little general is useless to roar hoarsely on the sidelines, his players have no offensive ability, where do they get points.

At this time, Mike Brown, who had been blacking Horn, couldn't help it, and said on the sidelines: "Now you can go to Horn, Horn has the ability to attack!" ”

Even Horn's sunspot knew that Horn was good for offense, and the little general saw that the score was too low, so he could only replace Horn and Marshon Brooks, and replace Stevenson and Henry Fuss.

The junior general came up with two people with independent offensive ability, wanting to improve the offense, and as soon as Horn arrived on the court.

Williams was happy, Marchand passed the ball to Horn, and Horn took the ball and saw that the person opposite him was Josh Smith, which was another non-trivial forward.

In this case, Horn made a feint, and then looked at his teammates, none of his teammates moved, where were the four of them, and where are they now, the four of them seemed to have nails under their feet. One player attacked, and the other four had no one to cut, no one to answer, and no one wanted to make a small match to make an empty space.

The Nets' offensive tactics have been rigid to such an extent that Horn can only jump up and throw a small mid-range shot in Josh Smith's face.

"Bang!"

Horn's forced small shot missed, and his teammates didn't run, Horn just had to play his personal ability, and at this time Horn's shooting was not stable, and the ball didn't hit.

This was the case with the first ball with the Nets, there was no contact between teammates at all, and they could only hold the ball and play alone, and there was no second choice.

This kind of ball is the hardest to hit!

Horn missed a shot, and the fans sighed. Junior general Everey Johnson also only watched Horn not shoot at this time, and mentally pondered Horne's personal offensive ability, which was not as good as last season in the Hornets.

Without shooting skills, Horn's projection is indeed not so stable, but Horn's confidence and mental state are better after last season, knowing that his teammates are four wooden stakes, Horn also has his own plans.

The Hawks' offensive ability is much more stable than that of the Nets, and Teague came up and broke through Williams to score two points with a direct throw.

The Nets came over again, and the basketball was in Horn's hands again.
