Since the start of the game, the Knicks have tasted the refreshment of leading by a large score in the first quarter for the first time, and in the case of the main force and the bench one after another, the previous Western giants Mavericks seem to have no room to fight back.

The game in the second quarter still developed in the direction that the Knicks wanted, and the main lineup under the leadership of the Big Apple seemed to have changed overnight, not only the offense was decisive, but the key shooting percentage was also surprisingly high, and even Chandler's mid-range shots near the free throw line could be hollowed into the net, and what else could not be done.

68：49！ The Knicks are still expanding their lead, in just half a game, New York has 3 people scoring double-doubles, Li Chen scored 14 points, compared to the previous games, the Big Apple's individual score is a little low, but today his assist count is up, 8 assists in the half are stunned.

Super rookie Curry scored 15 points with a play in the second half of the first quarter, and he has made five three-pointers so far, and it is clear that all of his points today came from outside the three-point line.

The remaining one who scored a double-double was David Lee, a data brush, and his performance today was worthy of this title, half of Li Chen's 8 assists were given to him, and he shot 6 of 9 in the half, and the shooting percentage was already impeccable.

The outstanding performance of the three main players is just a microcosm of the Knicks as a team, and although the others do not score much, it does not mean that their performance is not as good as the others. In addition to limiting the opposition's main outside scoring points well, David Lee and Battier have also performed very well on the offensive end.

It's the same with the benches, who let the Mavericks, who are arguably the best bench in the league, eat turtles in front of them. D'Antoni was a surprise or a surprise, but to put it simply, everyone played at a super level today. Of course. No matter how beautiful the game is, it's only the first half.

A difference of nearly 20 points does not guarantee that the Knicks will win the game, you must know that the Knicks themselves won a victory on the Lakers a few days ago. That is, they who have been fish belly for a long time will never have the same pride as the Purple and Gold Army, at least not now.

"Well done, guys!" The mustaches high-five the players one by one. The performance of the disciples made him very satisfied. 'The second half went on and we had to win today.'

Corresponding to the Knicks, there was not so much harmony on the Mavericks' side, and Carlisle looked at the listless players with a wistful expression. The team collectively suffers from fatigue. Such a situation was not foreseen before, and for the time being, he could only hope that Nowitzki would be able to bring out his core leadership qualities.

The troubled owner, Cuban, infiltrated the break room, and the previously enthusiastic crowd was no longer content to stand on the sidelines and watch the game, and the team's poor condition made him feel compelled to do something, for example, to boost morale or give Carlisle advice.

"The Knicks' defense is a problem. What will happen if you say we intensify our offensive? Cuban took his opinion for granted, in Carlyle's opinion. The words of the enthusiastic boss are equivalent to not saying anything.

Intensify the offense? Don't you see that there is a problem with your hand, and you can only give the opponent the ball when you have to drill into the attack, on the contrary, the most important thing for the Mavericks to do now should be to stabilize the defense and strive to narrow the score gap in the counterattack.

The time of the break was quickly exhausted, although it was only a short fifteen minutes, but the Mavericks who were behind by the big score also got a respite, and they had to find their form as soon as possible, and it was already urgent to close the score gap.

D'Antoni made a small adjustment, he replaced Curry with Mobley, the rookie played well in the first half but also made his physical consumption a lot, the mustache wanted his disciples to rest a little more, anyway, the Knicks are still ahead, and his lineup does not need to be too cautious.

The appearance of the old cat has taken many fans familiar with the Rockets a little surprise, and Mobley has seen his playing time drop sharply this season due to the Knicks' overcrowding on the guard line, and if it weren't for garbage time, D'Antoni would rarely send the veteran.

There are also rumors that Dolan wants to buy out Mobley's contract to make some adjustments to the Knicks' roster, and as for the trade, with Mobley's performance and his veteran contract, I believe no one wants it even if it is given away for nothing.

As the core of the team, Li Chen knows that the rumors from the outside world are not false, Dolan does intend to buy out Mobley's contract, if nothing else, this matter should be settled before the trade deadline, and at that time, the Knicks are likely to pick a big man from the lower leagues to make up for the team's internal shortcomings.

Although the roster is also put together, at least the team will look more balanced and the fans will be more satisfied with the team's plan.

The old cat, who hadn't played for a long time, didn't show much discomfort, and before he could touch the ball, he had already managed to make an offensive foul on Howard, who was a little impatient on the offensive end due to the point difference, and the experienced Mobley seized the opportunity.

Old Kidd shook his head regretfully, although the Mavericks have always been the heroes of the West, but looking at the situation today, they are likely to capsize in the gutter, and the cowboys who have fallen to the bottom of the state have met the big Apple with high morale, and the result can be imagined.

Chandler and Li Chen's air-catching cooperation made a burst of exclamations at the American Airlines Center, the big Apple's pass outside the three-point line accurately drilled into the hole in the Mavericks' defense, and the boxing king who jumped from the wing picked up a violent dunk, and during this period, the No. 1 center in the West didn't even turn his head, and Dampier just intuitively guessed that someone staged a wonderful dunk in the back of his head.

The Mavericks' plan to chase points did not go well, and the Knicks' hands continued to be hot, even if the German tank won a series of attacks in the third quarter, but the efforts of one person could not withstand the full-scale outburst of the New Yorkers.

Curry hit two more three-pointers, and so far, he's scored 21 points, and that's all done by three-pointers, and the Dallas native realized that this baby-faced rookie is just as good an outside shooter as the pesky Big Apple. 7 three-pointers in the third quarter, is he going to run for his boss's record?

Carlisle couldn't stand the performance of his disciples, how to throw and how not to score. How not to score, how to shoot, such a vicious circle made him hurriedly call a timeout, it doesn't matter how the Knicks play, the key is that he has to let the Mavericks' players know what they are doing!

The silence at the huge American Airlines Center was terrifying, and many fans who came from the surrounding towns to watch the game even booed, and the team's sluggish performance disappointed everyone.

Especially the main lineup, which was built by Cuban at a great cost. can't beat the cheap team in New York, you must know that the most expensive Knicks is the 13 million of the Big Apple, and none of the others can even exceed 10 million. And the value of German tanks is running in the direction of 2K, as well as Terry and Dampier, these people are all tens of millions of contracts.

Of course. Dampier is so watery. After all, fans have long been accustomed to this guy's poor performance, and the key is that Nowitzki and Terry are not very good today, the former has scored 21 points on 8-of-17 shooting so far, and the latter has scored 13 points on 5-of-13 shooting, and this is already the best person in the Mavericks, and the other people's shooting percentage will only be worse.

Quite a few are hoping that a timeout will make some difference to the Mavericks. But the truth is diametrically opposite, as soon as he plays. Kidd, the team's most consistent player, unexpectedly made a passing error, and his teammates' tacit understanding was challenged, Kidd mistakenly thought that Nowitzki would go inside, but the latter ran away, which directly caused Kidd's pass to be stuffed into David Lee's arms.

David Lee looked left and right and hesitated, he thought someone had fouled, until he saw Kidd's annoyed face, he realized that it was an opponent's mistake, a familiar color flashed at the edge of the field of vision, and the data brush decisively threw the ball towards the opponent's half.

Because the Big Apple was already leading a lot of distance, the Mavericks simply gave up the defense, and Howard slowly walked to his half court to prepare to serve, he didn't care, anyway, the ball was not to blame on his head, Carlisle would only say that Kidd's pass was not careful.

After receiving the ball, someone didn't score with a simple layup or dunk, and he decided to use the ball to off the fans. Dribbling to the free throw line, Li Chen suddenly stopped.

Although the fans at the scene didn't know what this guy was going to do, they saw Li Chen's intention to put on a show, and the boos all over the sky were about to tear down the roof of the stadium.

Li Chen was unmoved and sent the ball out, yes, it was a free throw, the calf's inactivity in returning to the defense gave him enough time to complete this performance, and the long-planned action paid off, and he even saw the opposite fan lip bang resentfully.

It's just that it would be nice if the free throws could go in! The next time, the boos in the sky turned into unbridled laughter, the big apple's free throw actually smashed the basket, the clown's trick was smashed by him, and the kind-hearted Dallas people gave Li Chen a taste of what is called the original ridicule, and among them, especially the Cuban boss, the faces of the enthusiastic fans were all red.

Howard, who was still walking slowly, finally came to his senses, and saw Li Chen's free throws bounce high, he quickly quickened his pace, if this ball was still played by Li Chen, God knows how Cuban would deal with him, you must know that although people are upright, he is the boss after all, and there are still many ways to deal with players, especially disobedient players.

Li Chen also reflected that if he didn't grab the ball, the protagonist of the media tomorrow can be imagined, he didn't intend to be the target of ridicule from the Dallas, so he was bound to win this rebound, compared to Howard, he had an advantage, that is, the basketball was flying towards him.

The big apple jumped up, Li Chen straightened his hands and wanted to grab the basketball in his hands, at the same time, Howard in the back had already flown over, he was better than Li Chen compared to bouncing, Howard, who thought that the opponent had not found himself, was ready to use his own bounce to try to pull the ball off the opponent's hand when Li Chen caught the ball.

"Then score another goal, and the Big Apple will be the laughing stock of tomorrow!" Howard has a good abacus, but it's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and honest practice of skills is not as good as Kaihang after all.

Just when Howard was trying to steal the ball, Li Chen's body suddenly bowed slightly, this slight action helped him successfully dodge Howard's stealing the ball, and it didn't stop there, because Howard flew up from behind, so because of inertia, he jumped up faster than Li Chen, and he was about to crash.

Howard now has two options, one is to push Li Chen away, but the result goes without saying, in addition to causing a brawl between the two teams, the only possibility left is a technical foul plus an indefinite suspension from the league.

Another option is to dodge as much as possible, but how can the dodge action in the air be so simple, if you are not careful, Howard's "handsome face" may hit the other party, and the consequences of breaking the phase are obviously unacceptable to someone.

Howard gave his own answer, in order to reduce the collision as much as possible, Howard reached out and grabbed Li Chen's shoulder, he hoped to reduce the damage by this action, but others didn't think much, especially Li Chen, he thought that the opponent wanted to throw himself to the ground, so he decisively took Howard and flew towards the basket.

After a few seconds, there was a brief silence, and then the American Airlines Center was engulfed in crazy laughter.

The big apple who dunked did not let go of the basket, because otherwise he was very likely to be carried to the ground by Howard on his back, so all this made the big apple dunk on his back.

Of course, the object of ridicule of the fans will not be Li Chen, the innocent eyes of the big apple make people sympathetic, and the timid ugly man behind him is the object of everyone's amusement, even if he is his own person.

“SHIT！” The roar of the Kuban resounded through the American Airlines Center! (To be continued......)
