After an unprecedentedly fierce battle with the Lakers, the Knicks seem to have run out of their good fortune. In the first game after Christmas, the Knicks suffered an unfortunate defeat in front of the old Spurs in the West, and the young Knicks who played in this game by the troika were completely unable to find the north, and the three scored a total of 74 points, and the Spurs also defeated the Knicks 116-94 with the excellent performance of the core team.

It is worth mentioning that Li Chen also suffered a trough in this game, facing the disgusting defense of the third uncle all over the court, and the big apple, who had just returned from the gentle township, unfortunately lost its former level, 11 of 27 shots, 5 of 8 free throws, and scored a total of 29 points in the fourth quarter of the game.

After losing to the Spurs, the Knicks' defeat did not end there, after returning from San Antonio, the New Yorkers lost at home to the visiting Washington Wizards, and the Wizards who had just ended another wave of losing streaks felt hot and terrible in this game, and the star Jamison shot 15 of 21 from the field, cutting 33 points and 13 rebounds, which directly led to the loss of the Knicks.

Li Chen, who defeated his opponent in the battle of points, still lost the game after all, although he scored 38 points, but compared to the five players on the Wizards' side who scored double-doubles, the Knicks really didn't see enough.

The shadow of two consecutive defeats made the Knicks suffer from many fans for a while, in their opinion, the Big Apple and his Knicks seem to have become a little carried away after the victory over the Lakers, losing to the Spurs is not a big deal, but losing to a bad team like the Wizards. It is clear that it is the evil result of carelessness.

Rookie Curry became the focus of the media for a while, scoring in two consecutive games without a double-double, and defensively being blown up as always. Such a performance is completely unacceptable.

As the boss of the team, Li Chen set up a protective net for his little brother, and in response to an exclusive interview with the Wall Street Journal, Big Apple took the initiative to exonerate his little brother, "Stephen actually has very good skills, he just didn't fully play it, just like most rookies." He also gets a little confused from time to time. ”

The reporter didn't intend to let Curry go, he directly turned over the data of the rookie's last two games, "8 points, 2 assists and 3 turnovers." 9 points, 1 assist and 2 turnovers, compared to Jennings and Evans, who are also rookies, have performed very well, and the two of them have become members of the league's 20+ clubs. And our No. 6 show is obviously still some way from such a goal. ”

Li Chen shrugged his shoulders. "But he's still on his way, isn't he? Give him some time, the Pea Shooter will surprise you, I'm sure he has the ability! ”

Because of the fear of putting pressure on his teammates, Li Chen didn't dare to say it too hard, although Curry did play a superstar style in the original history, but after all, the trajectory of history has changed, and no one can know what will turn out of things in the end.

In the midst of the reproach of the local media. The New Yorkers have another game for them, and today they face the Mavericks, one of the top three in Texas. Nowitzki, who has led his team to 16 wins so far, is fifth in the West, another opponent to be reckoned with for the Knicks.

Facing the Knicks, the Mavericks sent their ace lineup, Eric Dampier, the No. 1 center in the West, after the Sharks swam east again, the Mavericks' center turned back to the No. 1 center in the West, but his performance this season is still the same, year after year, after cheating a big contract, this goods is completely wilted.

Nowitzki at the power forward position is the heart of the Mavericks' forever, and the German tank has been as strong as ever this season, and he is definitely one of the best in the league at the power forward position, and like Duncan of the Spurs, getting older will only make him more consistent.

Josh Howard, along with Quinton Rose and Jason Kidd, make up the Mavericks' backline, the former two are talents who started on defense, and the latter's demonic experience also allows him to be calm and calm against any opponent, and for the Knicks, who rely on offense to eat, the Mavericks' backline is still a headache.

The Mavericks' strength lies in their bench lineup, Dallas' second team has become more formidable than ever after the introduction of the hacker Marion this season, and the trident combination of Terry and Barria and Marion has made more than one team lose in front of Dallas, even if the Knicks' bench is also good, but compared to the super bench created by the frustrated Cuban, their strength is obviously not enough.

The game started as scheduled, Dallas's home atmosphere was full, the savage atmosphere of Texans has always been famous in the league, facing the Knicks from big cities, fans are not polite at all, all kinds of hooligan slogans make people dare not look directly, especially the Knicks have lost to the league's penultimate Wizards before, which is a topic of ridicule for Texans.

“FUCK！” Chandler scolded in a low voice, "The people in this hellish place are really hooligans, the stadium management doesn't care, you must know that this game will be broadcast, in case the audience in front of the TV sees it, isn't it ruining your reputation!" ”

Li Chen kindly enlightened his teammates, "Generally, bulls are like this before they encounter the knights, and they want to hide the fear in their hearts!" ”

"But they're not bulls, they're calves, and who knows if they're males or females!" The boxing king was very serious, "Do you want me to ask them, my relationship with Dirk is still good, I heard that if it wasn't for the Knicks eyeing me last year, maybe I would be a member of the Mavericks now!" ”

Chandler didn't lie, not to mention last season, even this season, during Li Chen's suspension, Cuban also secretly hit Chandler's attention, but Dolan was desperate to let go, and the rest of the Mavericks management was also a little worried about Chandler's performance in the brawl, and under all kinds of obstructions, Cuban's plan to rob Chandler was finally declared bankrupt.

"As a knight, do you think you need to think about whether you are a male or a female?" Li Chen said with a disdainful expression, "Or do you have some unknown bad taste?" ”

The boxing king is clearly not interested in such a topic. For today's game, he also vows, "Come on." I'm wondering what kind of posture I'll use later! Knowing they're just calves, they're not yet adults, so I can't be too cruel! ”

Regardless of the fact that this is the home court of the Mavericks, the two are happy to have fun with the names of other teams, regardless of the outcome, one thing they know is that they can't weaken their opponents in the formation.

After all, the Knicks are on a losing streak. If you are not careful, you may be taken away by the Mavericks, and unlike the Knicks, the Mavericks are also an offensive team. But their defense is much more reliable than the Knicks.

At the referee's suggestion, Chandler and the No. 1 center in the West stepped into the center circle, and although Dampier thought he was talented, the fans had already seen the big fool thoroughly. For the opening jump ball. Except for the No. 1 center in the West himself, no one believes the Mavericks can dominate.

This is indeed the case, Chandler easily dialed the ball to the side of the Knicks, Li Chen quickly went down after receiving the ball, dribbled to the three-point line without any stopping, and threw the ball out of his hand when he stepped on the line.

Without watching basketball, Li Chen shook his head and left, and the toughness of the Texans made him determined to play his opponent well. The more arrogant he is, the more he wants to kill the arrogance of his opponents.

The fans at the scene were very angry about the performance of the Big Apple. Boos abound, this is a cowboy-infested Texas, the guy who dares to show off here will not end well, what about the Big Apple, no matter how talented he is, the age disadvantage will eventually make him unpleasant, the people of Dallas believe that no one can maintain a normal state of mind under their momentum.

But self-soothing didn't save the Mavericks' basket, and the basketball passed through it with precision, causing the fans to exclaim, even if they didn't want to admit it, but they still had to agree with the strength of the Big Apple.

How to return the favor beautifully has become a problem for the Mavericks, and considering the attack power of everyone present, the burden of fighting back has come to Nowitzki's head. The German tank's shooting has been the same for more than a decade, even if he has always been slandered as a big soft egg, but this has not prevented him from putting the ball in the basket again and again.

The sound of the basketball entering the net made the fans of the American Airlines Center very excited, compared to Li Chen's goal just now, the not-so-beautiful goal of the German tank is more like the protagonist of the stadium.

Li Chen pursed his lips, the performance of the Dallas people made him very disdainful, fortunately, he never had the luxury of how much cheer the opponent would give him, after all, this is not Los Angeles, if he has brought anything here, it may be hatred, the Lakers conquered here more than once last season, and the Big Apple was the main hero of the Lakers at that time.

The Knicks got the ball again, the Mavericks were ready, and Li Chen naturally couldn't be as casual as just now, according to D'Antoni's tactical essence, the Knicks players on the court began to run aimlessly.

Carlisle didn't have any special defensive strategy for the Knicks, and the strong combination of the back line made him believe in his team's man-to-man defense, especially in the small front, Howard proved that he can limit the Big Apple's offense to a certain extent last season, and in the current Knicks system, as long as it can bring a little trouble to the Big Apple, it is difficult for New York to bear.

But is that really the case? Li Chen gradually changed people's perception with his actual performance, and Dallas fans tragically found that Howard, who was still very effective last season, seemed to be a different person, perhaps because of the experience of drug addiction that made people very unhappy with this ugly ghost, in short, people blamed Howard for all the defensive problems.

Singled Howard with his back, Li Chen didn't feel any difference between this guy who eats on defense and others, the advantage in strength is as always, and the turn and jump shot after arching is simply going to make Howard desperate, perhaps considering that it is in Dallas today, Li Chen even used a golden rooster independent move, and the provocation could not be more obvious.

See the boos again! This is the only way for fans to express their emotions, and since it can't stop Big Apple's goal, let's completely disturb his mind.

Since then, every time Li Chen touches the ball, there will be a neat boo at the American Airlines Center, and when Li Chen passes the ball, this boo will stop abruptly, everyone knows that the Dallas people are determined to get along with the Big Apple today.

In fact, it is not only the Dallas family who wants to get along with Li Chen, before this, there has been more than one team to give Li Chen boos, but there are not many of them, the big apple is always calm, the goals that should be scored are still scored, and the games that should be won are still won!

However, from the beginning, the entire away fans were offended, which is also very rare in the NBA, Li Chen accepted the fans' boos very calmly, and after another shot, he even opened his arms to make a look of enjoying cheers.

The fans' boos became more enthusiastic, the arrogance of the Big Apple was unpleasant, and the Dallas people even counted part of the unhappiness on Howard's head, although they knew that he was not to blame, but Howard's face made people look unfavorable, and the ugly man's usual defense was gone, and the fans decisively lost patience.

In the opening 8 minutes, the Knicks unexpectedly took a clear advantage, 19:9, led by the Big Apple, the Knicks gave the Mavericks a resounding slap.

The fans booed the Big Apple, and while the main man was taken down, they still had a proud replacement, and the Dallas were confident that the situation was already changing and they would soon be able to get back on the score! (To be continued......)
