"Drop!" The shrill whistle whistled through the basketball arena, echoing for a long time, spreading through the crowd before D'Antoni quickly gathered everyone together.

With eight seconds left and the Knicks now two points behind, everyone wants someone to step up and turn the tide. The head coach of the Hawks carefully reviewed it and still felt that the Knicks would definitely send their ace Zhang Chen in the end.

In fact, he guessed that the current Knicks could only send Zhang Chen alone, because what they needed was a three-point shot.

At the end of the timeout, everyone stood on the court again, because the timeout was coming back to the Knicks' half-court serve, so everyone quickly swarmed in a half, which looked crowded and quite spectacular. Gallinari went to the baseline to serve, but unfortunately something embarrassed him, Zhang Chen couldn't run away from the position at all, and the opponent had at least three people chasing and intercepting him, so that Zhang Chen struggled in the crowd for a long time and couldn't show his head. At the critical moment, Zhang Chen had no choice but to activate his ultimate ability to run the tenth level and the ninth level of speed again, bypassing the backs of several people on the other side, and then using a few more running feints, finally letting them collide with each other, Zhang Chen also took advantage of such a little time to come to the bottom line, and he had already directly faced Gallinari.

With the last two seconds left before the service violation, Gallinari immediately passed the basketball to Zhang Chen, as if throwing a hot potato.

After all, Zhang Chen still received the pass as he wished, and several people from the Eagles were anxious and followed. And Zhang Chen didn't stay anymore, he directly began to dribble and rushed towards the left front, at this time he was about to be completely swallowed up by the opponent's crowd tactics!

The sound of the audience gasping in horror is endless, at this critical moment, everyone is full of expectations and panic about Zhang Chen's performance, this ball is related to the life and death of the Knicks, at this time not only the players need to bear huge pressure, but also the people watching the game have huge pressure.

Zhang Chen dribbled in two steps, and there were only five seconds left in the clock, by which time the defender had reached out at least three hands to steal Zhang Chen's basketball that was circling around his side and crotch.

At the critical moment, Zhang Chen was not afraid of danger, his wonderful basketball control skills were also perfectly displayed, the basketball flew in the direction that Zhang Chen wanted with low eyebrows, and he was able to avoid the steals of several people, after the game, Zhang Chen's ball control was worshiped by countless people, this kind of ball control that is even better than the street basketball master, when it appeared on a big man of two meters and three, everyone was dumbfounded.

Zhang Chen controlled the ball in this way until he reached a step outside the opponent's three-point line, and at this time, there were still three seconds left, and Zhang Chen's body, at the last moment when the three defenders were about to form a final encirclement, rose towards the sky, like a bird spreading its wings and flying high towards the sky that people couldn't touch.

Zhang Chendi's body poured out in mid-air, which was also his effort to avoid the opponent's block, and at the same time, his right hand also came to a fold, and at the moment of the last shot, Kankan dodged a few big hands that came to block, and then, Zhang Chen's body also leaned back to the maximum and shot in the air!

The basketball left Zhang Chen's hands, lifting weights like light, it seemed that he was so gently pushing, but the basketball was already mixed with a fierce momentum and pounced directly on the basket, and at the moment when the basketball left Zhang Chen's hands, there was only one second left.

The basketball flew into the sky, and Zhang Chen was not the last time to deal with such a key ball, but at this time he still had a rookie mentality, a kind of nervousness to the point of fear, staring at the basketball that was still flying freely.

The basketball slid through a strange parabola, and finally climbed to the highest point, slowly falling, until the red light on the rebound finally stopped being naughty and inserted into the basket!

The first game, the perfect lore!

The three people from the Eagles who came up to defend Zhang Chen covered their heads and watched this unbelievable scene, at the moment when they jumped up to block Zhang Chen just now, they had basically blocked all his way out! Why is he still able to work miracles under pressure in this situation?

The Eagles lost their lives in Zhang Chen's sword.

After a brief hesitation in the audience, there was an overwhelming cheer, and they completely discovered that the best rookie of last season who parachuted into the Knicks was fully capable of becoming a savior, and his cold-blooded stunner created the Knicks' first victory in the regular season this season.

The overwhelming cheers were seamless, and they were tightly spread throughout the basketball hall, and suddenly the sky could only accommodate everyone's bowing and worship.

Then, Zhang Chen was thrown to the ground by his teammates who flew over, although they had heard of the power of this new lore king before, but they didn't expect to see the power of the lore king in the first game. The moment Zhang Chen made his move, it was like a sharp and tough ice cube, killing with one blow, and he didn't allow his opponent any respite.

Randolph muttered at no idea what he was muttering, but he smiled and stood beneath the ceiling where the lights were almost glittering, and the air after the victory seemed to be sweet.

D'Antoni hugged his arm, smiled with his eyebrows, looked at the apprentices who were enthusiastically embracing, and his heart was full of a kind of satisfaction - more than a year has passed since Zhang Chen was discovered by him, and he has always seen Zhang Chen's growth, and this true color of the king of lore has also made him more confident in the emergence of a new Knicks.

The audience saw a new Zhang Chen, this Zhang Chen is more powerful than the previous one, accurate ball control, tonight he alone scored 46 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds luxury data, this data dazzled everyone's eyes, they all felt a kind of heartfelt admiration when they saw Zhang Chen, so that when Zhang Chen walked into the player tunnel, countless people immediately poured out on both sides to high-five Zhang Chen, they called Zhang Chen There are also various postures, some people call him a superstar, Some people call him the god of wind, and of course some people call him Chen. It was just a battle, and Zhang Chen established a perfect image in the hearts of Knicks fans, and now everyone wanted to give Zhang Chen a high-five, and Zhang Chen ran out of the aisle after a long time.

The press conference began, and from today onwards, Zhang Chen basically had to endure this torture and could not escape, after all, he is now the most important player of the Knicks, and it is also necessary to participate in such a press conference.

At this time, a white reporter in the crowd asked Zhang Chen, "Mr. Zhang, do you think you were able to win the final victory in today's game?" ”

"I think it's a result of our concerted efforts, we all want to win, so we've really worked on it, and every single one of us was a part of it...... That's why we won in the end. Zhang Chen thought about it for a while and replied to him in more official words, after more than a year of tempering, Zhang Chen's ability to deal with reporters has increased.

It's a pity that the reporter didn't plan to let him go: "Mr. Zhang...... Do you say this to help your teammates evade their responsibilities? In fact, we can all see that the victory of this game is just your victory, it is you who dominate the game, and you let the game develop in a direction you want, not what you call everyone's victory......" This sentence is heart-wrenching, in fact, if today's game is still Zhang Chen's victory from the root, whether it is a lore or the rise of the team, it is full of his imprint every time.

Therefore, what this reporter said actually has a certain amount of truth, but Zhang Chen naturally can't follow his words, so he thought about it for a while and said: "My teammates are very good, they all have the ability to make our team better at critical moments, and they all do their part to the team, so if today's game is my victory, then I can't agree with it...... It's a win for all of us. ”

When he heard this, Randolph next to him gave him a strange look, and then quickly turned his gaze.

The reporter was unrelenting: "But when we look back at this game carefully, we can find that your team played a mess, and we can see that your offensive and defensive systems are very bad, do you think this bad offensive and defensive system is because of the manager's problems?" You've been with Coach D'Antoni from the Suns to the Knicks, do you think he's a good coach? ”

This sentence made D'Antoni next to him frown, and this sentence didn't take him seriously, Zhang Chen glanced at D'Antoni, and then smiled: "In fact, Mike and I have been working together for a year, and it was because of him that I was able to stand on this court, because he gave me the opportunity to walk into this court, and I am very grateful to him." At the same time, he is also a very good coach on the court, he can point out our shortcomings and shortcomings, and at the same time make us better, and I am glad to have such a coach who can light a beacon for me on the road of basketball. In terms of the team, maybe we do have some problems in the team, we do have some problems in our offensive and defensive system, which is also a kind of helplessness on our part, but I want to say that it doesn't have much to do with the coach, because we are a regrouped team, and we need more time to run in to be able to play stronger...... I hope that the outside world can give us a little more confidence and give us some time to improve, and I believe that with the help of my lovely teammates and a good manager, we will be able to achieve even better results, and I hope you can give us more time and more confidence. ”

After this sentence was finished, the applause rang out warmly, including D'Antoni, everyone had a kind smile on their faces, Zhang Chen's answer was full of emotion, D'Antoni was indeed his Bole, it was D'Antoni who gave him the opportunity to stand on the stage, so his words were full of emotion and sincerity, so everyone couldn't help but applaud.

Today's press conference ended in such a peaceful situation, but the atmosphere on the Hawks' side was a little gloomy. They lost the game but they won't leave for a while, after all, in a big city like New York, a lot of players choose to stay here for a day or so to go shopping or something. The Eagles were no exception, they decided to stay here for a day, to buy groceries, to browse, and it was the most fascinating time of the year in New York, there was no cold or heat, and the climate was pleasant enough for everyone to explore.

However, the Knicks' condition was not so good, and the next day Zhang Chen came to the arena by running as usual, and his room this time was not far from the arena, so he could basically run to get here.

Stepping into the stadium and greeting the staff, Zhang Chen slowly walked into the stadium by himself.

The first thing to start is some warm-up and body pulling exercises, the physiotherapist has not yet come, Zhang Chen's physiotherapy also started after everyone arrived, he will practice every morning and evening, which also requires him to wait for others to arrive. This morning's training was a refresher on the ball and 500 three-pointers, followed by a comprehensive training of physical fitness, followed by training on his defensive skills, defensive footwork and so on.

Every morning, Zhang Chen's training schedule is full, and he has to train himself every day.

After he practiced for about two hours, David Li appeared at the door and waved at Zhang Chen: "Hey, Chen, you're really early!" ”

Zhang Chen nodded: "It's better to get up early, so that you don't have to be lazy, and you can also make yourself more suitable for the competition and training atmosphere." ”

David Lee scratched his head: "It's a pity that it's hard for me to get up early, which is really a pity...... In the future, I'll practice more in the evening, so it might be more effective. ”

Zhang Chen nodded, and then continued to start his own defensive practice, the movements he is training now are cut out of the learning space, each of his foot movements has his own unique rhythm, he has to do this practice every day for a long time, and after slowly getting used to it, his defense will also form a more proficient routine. This is the same principle as people practicing martial arts, after thousands of times of practice, the trajectory of the movement imprinted in their souls will become a conditioned reflex and explode at the first time they are hit.

Zhang Chen's footsteps were quite flexible, which made David Li look envious: "Chen, if I can have your footsteps, I think my attack will be more powerful." ”

Zhang Chen smiled: "I have some training suggestions for pace adjustment, I'll give it to you later, maybe it will help you." ”

David Li watched Zhang Chen's frightening footsteps, and his eyes bloomed with bright light: "Hey, Chen, you are really a good person!" I'll try! ”

Zhang Chen smiled and nodded, and then continued his training, soon after the two started training, D'Antoni and they also came to the stadium, D'Antoni was very accustomed to saying hello to Zhang Chen, since the sun era, Zhang Chen's training has always been so hard, his training time and training content are more than others, get up early every day to practice, and practice at night is also a sign of Zhang Chen.

D'Antoni arrived in the arena, quickly sat down on the stool next to the pitch, opened the tactical board in his hand, and began to plan something on it.

Soon after, everyone arrived, even Eddie Curry, but this guy was still walking normally in a place where everyone couldn't see, but when he walked into the arena, he began to limp and came to D'Antoni's side with a wry smile: "Sorry, boss, my leg never gets better." ”

D'Antoni glared at him: "I think that's the same...... Maybe you're going to spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair. ”

Eddie Curry limped to the stool and began to pound his left leg in a pretended manner, everyone was blind to this guy, even Randolph, who regarded him as an ally, was speechless when he saw this, and just wanted to prove that I didn't know this person.

Zhang Chen also frowned and glanced at the old disrespectful birdman, and then continued his training, and his defensive action standard training was still the last group. D'Antoni knew that Zhang Chen was always a little strange but quite efficient in his training moves, and he was also a little amazed when he saw this exquisite defensive footwork.

D'Antoni called everyone up in a heap and said loudly, "Guys...... Yesterday's game is over...... In fact, yesterday we were a little unhappy and we could have played better...... We had a tough win yesterday and we almost lost, and I think the biggest reason for that was the chemistry between each of you and the execution of the tactics. ”

Everyone listened attentively, including Eddie Curry, and D'Antoni continued: "We are a regrouped team, each player has a different life background, it was not necessarily the same team before, we all need a process of adaptation, it will be a long process, we need time to hone our tactical literacy, and our fighting ability. We've practiced a lot of tactical moves before that, everybody worked hard, but when we get on the pitch we don't always get the most out of it, and that's the most important problem we're facing now. ”

"I think everyone's tactical literacy is very good, after all, everyone is a qualified NBA player, naturally after countless training, what we have to do now is to mobilize everyone's tactical literacy, and form a chemistry of the whole team, so the next training is to intersperse some tacit training with teammates in tactical training, which is the main training content of the next!"

D'Antoni has prepared a dose of surprise in the face of the current situation of the Knicks, and has proposed a practical training method for this.

Everyone nodded their heads, and everyone had an understanding of the current situation of the team after a real battle yesterday, and everyone pricked up their ears when they heard D'Antoni propose a solution to the surname.
