Chapter 336: This Feels Familiar
In the second quarter of the bench, D'Antoni sent out: Dujon, Marcus. Thorton, Thai. Gibson, Carl. Landry, Channing. Fry.
This lineup lacks the ability to carry the ball from the outside, Dujon and Thorton lack breakthrough threat, Gibson plays the third position and has too short range and does not have long-range shooting ability, Landry and Frye have high attacking power, but they need to be fed the ball to play.
Johnson is not really incapable at all, maybe he is not strong enough to adapt on the spot when he encounters a tough game in the playoffs, but he can make the team's defensive adjustment solid, and the regular season is not like the playoffs on both sides to find every hole in the opponent, so Johnson can achieve a good record in the regular season with an excellent defensive system, and then play in the playoffs.
In the second quarter, Johnson shrank the defense inward and hit the weakness of the Knicks' poor outside projection, the Cavaliers used heavy soldiers to hinder Duhon's passing, and the Knicks' projection center and three-point shooter could only stay alone on the outside to face the dilemma of not receiving the ball.
D'Antoni quickly brought on Zhang Yu to replace Gibson, and the Knicks had to have someone on the court who could control the ball.
The effect after Zhang Yu came on the field was immediate, and the little rabbit alone could revitalize the entire team, activate all the players, and give full play to the offensive firepower of his teammates.
D'Antoni pondered secretly that in the first quarter of the future, he could first put Thai. Lawson replaced, only let him play half a quarter, and then replaced Du Hong and Zhang Yu in the backcourt. So the second quarter of the bench let Thai. Lawson could play with the bench and play to his breakthrough ability. You can also exercise his awareness of the ball, and be on the field with Zhang Yu. Lawson can only play his breakthrough ability. In the future, the most will be the enhanced version of Ned. Robinson, D'Antoni hopes he can develop in the organization as well, mustache is first-class in the way of adjusting point guards, and Tate. Lawson is a good seedling in his eyes, worth cultivating.
The idea of experimenting with yourself in the second half is that a team doesn't have to put all five of its best players on the pitch, someone has to lead the team in the transition. Just like the Spurs' Ginobili has always done.
Soon after Zhang Yu came on the court, the junior general Johnson immediately replaced James.
The second quarter was 9 minutes and 20 seconds, and the score was 33:32. The Knicks lead by one point.
Now the main players of the two teams, except for Zhang Yu and James, most of them are resting off the court, and now there are two "kings" with a bunch of three, three, four and four in the duel, and fans say they want to see such a scene. Now the two will definitely turn on the offensive mode. See who has the stronger attack ability, this duel is interesting!
"I said, I heard that you have been practicing hard for a summer, and I will take a look at it?" As soon as Zhang Yu came up, he was misaligned with the gorilla, and immediately couldn't help but spew trash talk to tease James.
"Okay, I'll show you my back." James had a cunning look in his eyes, this guy actually wanted to deceive the little rabbit.
When Zhang Yu saw James say this, he was a little unsure. He only said that the gorilla trained to shoot the basketball, so he deliberately used his "back" to squeeze him. I didn't expect James to respond like this.
"Could it be that this guy has also practiced his back? Did I read the wrong news? ”
Zhang Yu was inattentive, and was rushed by James's brutal breakthrough in a blink of an eye, and the gorilla deliberately pulled him with his hand when he broke through, so that he couldn't catch up from behind him at the first time, and could only watch the gorilla dodge Frye's block with a four-step layup, and scored two points with a split!
"Not bad!" Zhang Yu smiled lightly, now his mentality is much better than last season, and he is not so competitive.
The Knicks attacked, Zhang Yu faced West on the outside, and the melancholy man has become more and more depressed recently, and it seems that his face has completely become embarrassed, and it is estimated that his condition is even more serious.
Zhang Yu pulled out the free throw line and scored another goal on West's head, which felt all too familiar.
The depressed man also sighed in his heart: "This feeling is too familiar......"
James still felt good in the second quarter, and Zhang Yu also found a familiar taste on West's head, and the two began to play one ball and one goal, taking turns to improve their scores.
At 6 minutes and 40 seconds in the second quarter, D'Antoni replaced Yao Ming, but the Cavaliers did not replace O'Neal, the fat man's skill CD is longer than the little giant, he can only play half a game now, and the little giant can play at least three quarters.
Knicks lineup: Thai. Lawson, Zhang Yu, Gerald. Wallace, Channing. Fry, Yao Ming.
D'Antoni is ready to let Fry and Yao Ming play together for two minutes to see how it goes?
QIAN Ning. Frye and Yao Ming are on the court, and the advantage is that Frye, who can shoot three-pointers, can pull one of the Cavaliers' interior players to the outside, so that Yao Ming has a better chance to play in the low post. ZHANG Yu and Tai. Lawson can already pull up the inside line for Yao Ming to cover the troops, and now with the long-range inside line of Fry, the Cavaliers are left with only a big Z alone guarding the penalty area, and Yao Ming can play the Lithuanian as much as he wants.
It's a pity that Yao Ming is not in good shape today, and Big Z's defensive effect on him is also good, the two high school forwards of the knights have height and weight, which can pose a certain threat to Yao Ming's offensive end, plus the little giant feels really bad today, it is estimated that he didn't wash his hands when he went to the toilet, and he missed the 5th shot, and shot 1 of 5, and the iron arrived at home.
Domestic fans said: "Da Yao is praising his character, and he will magnify his moves after a while!" ”
Yao Ming felt that he didn't feel good, after missing the shot this time, he took the initiative to communicate with Zhang Yu, and the next time he attacked, he would pull it out to block Zhang Yu and let the little rabbit dribble through.
Zhang Yu feels that today's game is much easier than last season's playoffs, and his teammates can help him share a lot of pressure. Aaron, it's good to just sneak up on the outside from time to time.
Yao Ming's next offensive end, he really came out to block and dismantle.
Zhang Yu dribbled and broke through, his breakthrough speed was not fast, but the rhythm of the dribble changed very strongly, Yao Ming covered and followed down, Zhang Yu's movements were also very deceptive, so that people couldn't see whether he was going to pass the ball next, shoot or suddenly accelerate to the basket and dunk?
Insiders know that Zhang Yu's breakthrough speed this time is not fast. The threat is greater than last season, and now he has too many options to do anything to kill the Cavaliers. That's where it comes in.
Zhang Yu made a shooting feint to entice the Cavaliers to come forward and block, but the basketball passed to the leaked hands of Fry, who hit a mid-range shot.
New York fans said that Zhang Yu is really chic and handsome now playing ball!
In the next attack, Zhang Yu once again blocked and dismantled with Yao Ming. Wallace took the opportunity to slip the bottom line, Zhang Yu concealed a non-looking pass, and assisted the Knicks' three masters to dunk with both hands!
4 minutes and 40 seconds in the second quarter. Junior General Johnson called another timeout, and now the Cavaliers are extremely passive, and the Knicks played a wave of 9:4 after the Big Three all came on the court, if it weren't for James's two individual ability goals. They may have been taken away by Zhang Yu's series of assists a long time ago.
The score is 46:39. The Knicks lead the Cavaliers by seven points.
Zhang Yu has increased his personal count to 13 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists during this time, and unconsciously he has become the player with the highest scoring and assists in the Knicks.
After the timeout, the knight's countermeasure was to wrap Zhang Yu, even if Zhang Yu didn't have the ball in his hand, he would still be a double bag.
Great. Lawson began to work up his individual breakouts and his defensive pressure became very small. Two consecutive breakaways and one layup to score a goal. An assist for Yao Ming to score two points.
The cheers at Madison Square Garden are getting louder and louder, and New York fans know that the two teams are now at a critical point, as long as they take advantage of this time to open up the point difference, they can win this game in one go, and the Cavaliers are obviously almost overwhelmed, and they are not far from collapse.
Zhang Yu is the most dangerous person at this time, and the junior general Johnson knows this very well, and would rather let the other Knicks players score at this time, and resolutely not let Zhang Yu score.
Wallace made a three-point shot from the bottom corner, and the basketball knocked out of the frame......
Yao Ming pressed O'Neal under the basket to get the rebound, but the little giant didn't put his hand down, relying on his height advantage and throwing the ball directly out, and a small head threw the basketball into the net at close range.
O'Neill has no way to do this ball, his height is 10cm shorter than Yao Ming, the 38-year-old big fat shark can't jump, can't make up for the 10cm gap, and now he can't take advantage of Yao Ming, if Yao Ming doesn't feel good today, he can completely beat the old O'Neal.
Zhang Yu was wrapped in a bag, Wallace and Thai. Lawson frequently impacted the Cavaliers' interior line, O'Neal became the Cavaliers' defensive black hole at this time, he can still make a certain contribution on the offensive end, but the defensive end is too slow, the defensive ability is a mess, and the breakthrough of the two cannot be effectively delayed, in fact, his effect on the court is not as good as Vallejo.
The Brazilian actor is now angry, he played very well in the 07-08 season, but the Cavaliers exchanged for Ben halfway. Wallace, who brought him back from the starter to the bench. However, Big Ben's watch was far less brilliant than his, which made the Brazilian insiders very dissatisfied; Last season, Ben. Wallace's form was even worse, the Cavaliers had to put Vallejo in the starting line-up again, and the Brazilian was very good. It's a pity that the tragedy happened again, this year the team was replaced by O'Neal, and his starter was robbed again; But in fact, the current O'Neill is still inferior to the Brazilians, which makes Vallejo feel that he has been greatly wronged, how can he be so bullied?
The Cavaliers are really unrighteous in doing this, O'Neal is not popular with the Cavaliers players now, and even James' attitude towards O'Neal is lukewarm, feeling that the team has brought such an expired superstar to perfunctory him.
The Gorilla shot again from the outside, and even if he felt good today, the Knicks still let him go one and a half distances, and you are good at throwing it.
James's feel is just like Zhang Yu imagined, it is impossible to last a whole game, as long as his muscles are tightened, the feeling will be slowly affected, his muscles are too developed, it will inevitably affect the shooting feeling, especially after the physical confrontation, the shooting feel will be destroyed.
There are two players in the league who shoot well, and almost none of them are as physically strong as the gorillas. Miller and Ray. Aaron weighs less than 200 pounds, and even Zhang Yu weighs only 210 pounds. (To be continued......)
