The Knicks also made substitutions when the Lakers were about to pause substitutions, and like the Lakers, the Knicks did not replace all of their main starters.

The Knicks were replaced by Iguodala and Stephen Jackson. And continued to keep Ty Gibson, Curry and Thorton on the court.

The Knicks' lineup is very small and may have problems with rebounding, but Thibodeau wants to try it. Looking at the effect, many things have to be gradually found in practice, and many tactics are gradually improved in practice.

Although this lineup is relatively short, the range is also relatively good, and the flexibility is very high, and there are five people on the court, four of whom are three-point shooters, which makes the opponent's defensive method always leaky.

Thibodeau had tried this tactic before, and it worked pretty well, so I wanted to try it now. If the effect is good, it is not ruled out that in the playoffs, this tactic will be used to disrupt the opponent's defensive formation.

Now, regardless of whether this formation can score or not, the effect of trying to disrupt the opponent's defensive formation is not achieved anyway.

The Knicks' mid-pointer Pau Gasol is perfectly fine for defending Ty Gibson on the inside.

Odom is a little skinny, if you were a strong power forward, such as Love, Odom would be a little melancholy, but now the Knicks' power forward is Stephen Jackson, and if you want to rely on flexibility to open the gap in the power forward position, it is obviously impossible.

As for the small forward, the scoring guard and the point guard, there is no superiority in flexibility.

It seems that the Lakers' lineup is stronger, after all, the Lakers' players are almost all the main players in the starters, so naturally their strength should not be underestimated.

In fact, it is indeed the strength of the Lakers that is relatively strong.

The Knicks' change of formation did not have a good effect, and the Lakers, under the leadership of Kobe, played steadily and chased the score back little by little.

Thorton originally played very well, but after Kobe Bryant came on the court, he competed with Thorton, after all, Kobe was still that Kobe, Thorton was still Thorton, and there was no so-called miracle release, Thorton became unable to score as much as he wanted under Kobe's best defense.

After all, Kobe Bryant is a player in the league who has a defensive player, and it is not so easy to break through Kobe's defense.

There is a very good saying in later generations, which means to tell us that not all players can beat the old players when they are young, even if those superstars are old, they are still superstars, how to say that sentence, oh, by the way, it is that: "Uncle Pi is still your Uncle Pi." ”

Thorton still paid the tuition in front of Kobe.

And this tuition is not less, because Kobe not only abused Thorton on the defensive end, but also showed no mercy on the offensive end, maintaining the feel of the game in the first quarter, Kobe continued to attack in front of Thorton.

However, this situation did not last long, because two minutes after the substitution of other main players, Chen Jiyuan returned to the field and replaced Thorton.

This would be a normal configuration for the Knicks' on-court players.

After Chen Jiyuan came on the court, the most important task was to reduce Kobe's impact on the inside, because Kobe broke through Thorton's defense and had a very serious impact on the inside, which made the Knicks' interior line full of holes. Ty Gibson's ability to protect the interior is still a little worse, first of all, after all, Ty Gibson is a rookie, and his training in the league is not enough, plus Ty Gibson is a big forward position, so it is a bit reluctant to let him play center. In the center forward position, Ibaka is much better than Ty Gibson. Although Ibaka's protection of rebounds is a bit unfavorable in the center position, his basket protection ability is still very strong.

The Knicks attacked again, Chen Jiyuan was actually very up, and now was the time when the desire to attack was extremely strong, so after halftime, he decisively started to ask for the ball after blocking Bynum, who was playing with him.

Bynum's first quarter of the game was completely blown out.

So now the mentality is also a little broken, this is Bynum's shortcoming, now, Bynum tried his best to defend Chen Jiyuan, but never succeeded, what is that feeling? Guess what?

Now this ball, Bynum saw that Chen Jiyuan was going to ask for the ball again, and Sessions was also ready to give the ball to Chen Jiyuan's hand, Bynum finally couldn't bear it, M's, let the storm come more violently.

So, Bynum forced a steal attempt, but unfortunately, Sessions is not the kind of kid who passes the ball and is careless, and Chen Jiyuan is not the kind of center who reacts slowly and can reflex the arc around the earth.

There is only one consequence of this uncertain tackle. That is, Bynum lost all defensive positions in an instant.

When Bynum retracted his center of gravity, he found that Chen Jiyuan had left him, and it was no longer an era when two people were in close contact and inseparable. Now it has become the era when Chen Jiyuan is striding forward.

After Chen Jiyuan got rid of Bynum, he went straight to the basket, Yuanyuan, you go to the bottom line, brother, I look outside the three-point line!

Here, Pau Gasol saw Chen Jiyuan coming straight to the basket on the inside, at this time, there was time for Pau Gasol to react, and what was the chance of defending Chen Jiyuan to become a back-up, as a professional player, Pau Gasol naturally came to make up for Chen Jiyuan as soon as possible.

However, Chen Jiyuan is not a dry eater. The legs are energized, and the muscles of the whole body are tense. Take off and fly in the air. Straight to the basket.

What is he going to do, and what does Chen Jiyuan want? Everybody is thinking about it.

Chen Jiyuan's ball running stage is unimpeded and very comfortable. Therefore, this ball, Chen Jiyuan jumped early, and flew higher and higher in the air.

Finally, it was getting closer to the height of the basket.

Is this Nima really a guy with a height of 2.13 meters? I'm going to be a dog. This is Gasol's true inner thoughts in front of Chen Jiyuan.

However, these thoughts did not help Pau Gasol to stop his steps and body.

Because Pau Gasol is already in the air.

Chen Jiyuan holds the ball with both hands. Didn't do any superfluous movements.

It is to greet the upcoming Pau Gasol with his chest. And on the edge of the cliff, Pau Gasol had no other choice.

I can only bite the bullet.

When the two really collided, people were surprised to find that Pau Gasol couldn't reach the basketball in Chen Jiyuan's hand at all, and Pau Gasol could only hit Chen Jiyuan's hand. This Nyima is kidding me.

In the collision of air power, as soon as he came into contact, Pau Gasol's heart was broken, and later Pau Gasol cried and said: "Originally, I refused, but after contact, I decided to refuse in the future." ”

Pau Gasol only felt as if he had been hit by a truck, especially his chest, which was especially serious, and at the first moment, Pau Gasol had the intention of flinching.

And Chen Jiyuan is the opposite, Chen Jiyuan never knows what fear is, and he doesn't know what retreat is, Lao Tzu just does it.

Therefore, the result of the collision in the air is obvious, Pau Gasol is naturally the one who was knocked away, Pau Gasol is naturally the one who is in the background, and Chen Jiyuan is of course the one who completed this incomparably domineering dunk!

Chen Jiyuan hit Pau Gasol in the air, and then used his hands to pour the ball into the basket.

The basket shook back and forth with the rhythm of Chen Jiyuan's body, if it weren't for the fact that the quality of the basket was much better now, the fans of Staples Arena were really worried. Will this basket be broken by Chen Jiyuan?

The referee's whistle sounded when Chen Jiyuan was hanging in the air.

After landing safely, he ignored Pau Gasol, who was knocked out of the ground stupidly.

Chen Jiyuan stood on the edge of the field, facing the outside of the field, fiercely hammered his chest three times, and let out a heartfelt shout to the fans outside the stadium, which filled the entire stadium with his own roar:

COME―ON―,BABY―!

The audience became silent for the first time, and even they forgot to boo this kid. Shh

A chilling 2+1. It completely boosted the morale of the Knicks.

Chen Jiyuan walked to the free throw line, of course, he scored the ball safely.

After hitting this 2+1, the score between the Knicks and the Lakers became 46:38, and among the Lakers' 38 points, Kobe Bryant scored 25 points by himself. There were still 3 minutes left in the half, but Kobe Bryant had already scored 25 points.

And Chen Jiyuan had already scored 21 points with 3 minutes left in the half. In terms of scoring data, Chen Jiyuan is not much less than Kobe, but the shooting rate is much higher than Kobe.

In the second quarter of the game, under the encouragement of Chen Jiyuan, the morale became extremely high. And on the Lakers' side, except for Kobe Bryant's still struggling support, no one is on display.

At halftime, the Knicks managed to extend the margin to double digits with a two-point break from Iguodala.

The score became 54:43.

Bryant scored 30 points in the half. And then the eggs.

Chen Jiyuan didn't score in the next three minutes, and it was all thanks to the explosion of his teammates that he was able to stretch the difference to double digits.

Curry, under the entanglement of Fisher, really played very abnormally today, and did not hit a single three-point shot. In the end, it is the super experienced big brother, Fisher still gave Curry a wonderful lesson, this lesson is something that every rookie must go through, if he can't get over this hurdle, then the development prospects will be like that.

As the rookie selected by the team with the seventh pick, Curry has a lot of hope entrusted by the team.
