Chapter 336: Quasi-triple-double or high score
At the end of the first quarter, Chen Jiyuan quickly stood up to greet these guys who looked good. The fastest and most stable update dìng)
At the end of the first quarter, the Knicks and Raptors played a 28-30 game. The Knicks are two points behind for the time being.
The Knicks didn't surprise anyone in the first quarter. No player had even the slightest surprise for Knicks fans watching the game in front of the TV. This year's fifth show in the back wheel, Kevin Love's watch, can be described as mediocre.
In fact, at this time, Knicks fans are still very entangled, they hope that Lefu can show strong strength, and hope that Lefu can be worthy of this No. 5 draft pick. After all, the Knicks' draft last year was so successful, so this year's Knicks' first-round No. 5 pick, Knicks fans of course hope that their superhero Mr. Latin Dolan can choose a superstar to help Apple King hit the championship. So today, Lefou's watch is good, they are worried that Lefu is a person who has no stamina and can only brush up jù in the preseason, and if Lefou's watch is not good, they are worried that Lefu will be in this state in the regular season. And there are some people, Lefu is good, they will think that Lefu is really a good player, and Lefu is not good, they will say that Lefu will have the opportunity to show his strength in the future. Hey, in short, there are fans who think about it.
However, not the whole game was so devoid of exciting shots, and in the third quarter, Knicks fans were really excited.
Chen Jiyuan played another 4 minutes in the second quarter of the game, and then went off the break again, and in the third quarter, he only played 5 minutes. After that, it's time for the rookies to play.
This year's Knicks, in fact, the biggest personnel adjustment is to choose Kevin Love in the first round of the No. 5 pick, the Knicks' move was originally considered by everyone to be planning to trade David Lee's action, however, many people ignore the Knicks' David Lee's attention to Cheng Dù, the general price, the Knicks really didn't put it in their eyes, Chen Jiyuan as a reborn, naturally has a lot of advantages, so, many teams give a price that seems to be a good condition, but only Chen Jiyuan knows, There are many times this price. Some teams even have the idea of giving it a try, hoping to be lucky and pick up the cheap here in the Knicks. But they were disappointed. Latin's attitude towards this trade is very tough, anyway, the Knicks are not in a hurry, even if David Lee stays here for a year, there is no problem, David Lee's annual salary is not high, and the role is not small, he is a very good player. That's the psychological advantage of the Knicks on the David Lee trade.
If David Lee waits, his numbers will increase next season, but only if he gets enough playing time and is taken seriously. And now with Kevin Love's Knicks, or with Love's Thibodeau, it's a big question whether David Lee can be reused. David Lee should be traded away this season, but not with the previous worthless offers, but after the start of the new season, slowly waiting for the bags of each team, and waiting for a suitable, acceptable offer, it is the time to trade David Lee. It's a rhythm that's good for all three. David Lee was able to go to a team that took him more seriously, and he was able to play the 20+10 per game average in his previous life, and for the Knicks, in exchange for something good, it also prevented David Lee, a quasi-All-Star, from being abandoned under Thibodeau. And for that team, they're going to get a quasi-All-Star, a very qualified starting power forward. And David Lee's talent can be shown on stage. Therefore, trading David Lee can be said to kill three birds with one stone, and all three parties can be happy to get what they want. What awaits now is the emergence of this third party.
In the third quarter, it wasn't the rookie Love or Sessions, who was called last year's strongest second-round pick, who shone brightest, but our 13th pick, Rodney Starkey. No one knows what this guy did during the holidays, but the thing we have to know is that this guy seems to be a little irritated by Sessions. A second-round rookie, but in his rookie season, he showed a more eye-catching star than him, and even, because of Sessions' savings, Starkey put a lot of pressure on him. There is a saying that is good, I am afraid of comparison. When comparing Starkey to Sessions, most Knicks fans will begin to wonder why the 13th pick doesn't feel like a second-round rookie. This gives people the feeling that it seems that Starkey's signing is not worth it. It gives the feeling that Starkey is a parallel trade. Although Starkey's table last season was not amazing, it was also very good, at least it was right to be the table of the thirteenth overall rookie. However, after making a comparison, compared to Sessions, Starkey's table is naturally a little under-seen.
Perhaps, because of this, the relationship between Sessions and Starkey is not so harmonious, before the start of the new season, it can be seen that Stacky slightly aimed at Sessions, but Sessions did not respond to Stacky.
In this third quarter, Starkey finally burst out of his energy, and in the off-season, it can be clearly felt that Starkey's growth, although the long-range shooting is still so watery, it seems that either he did not practice long-range shooting during the holiday, or he practiced but the effect is not obvious. In short, Starkey's strong breakthrough in the third quarter still left a very deep impression. Starki's body is quite strong, and Starki himself is not afraid of body collisions. Therefore, in this third quarter, Starkey staged three or four shots with an unbalanced shot, and the premise of this situation is that Starkey seems to be stronger this holiday, and it seems that Starkey is focusing on exercising his strength, so that Starkey's breakthrough will be more lethal. It's going to be a great thing for the Knicks, because the small forward position is still a weakness for the Knicks.
Tony Allen's presence will certainly make the Knicks' forward defense less weak, but, again, it will make the front line attack weaker. Chandler felt like he had a good time this holiday, he didn't practice at all, and when he came back from the training camp, his figure was out of shape. For this, Chen Jiyuan could only express helplessness. Chandler didn't improve, so the No. 23 spot was wasted. The Knicks' forward line will still be a weakness, Tony Allen can't be on the court all the time, once Tony Allen is off the court, then the Knicks' forward line will have problems, I hope Chandler can do a good job as a substitute small forward.
didn't find Iguodala this season, which has always been a melancholy thing for Chen Jiyuan, and now the strong players in the front line generally renew their contracts with their own teams, and this kind of player is also a hot commodity and is not so easy to find. And this season's free small forwards don't have much to Chen Jiyuan's heart. Although Deng is a good small forward, his offensive efficiency is not very good, and he does not see the big picture. Magetti is even worse, Margeti's career after that is like, because of injury, Margeti's competitive state after that is simply unbearable, and Margeti obviously will not accept a small contract. The offer for Josh Smith has not been successful. It can be said that this year's reinforcement has not been as successful as expected. Thankfully, it was a success to find Tom Thibodeau.
