Chapter 69: "Descendants of the Dragon" Derby (Part I)

After changing tactics, the Knicks quickly developed chemistry, and Jeremy Lin broke through consecutive passes to his teammates to "dunk in one step".

The inside three treasures are no longer worried about coordination and ball control for the time being, and they perform wonderful offenses under the basket one after another.

Seeing that the battle under the basket was not advantageous, Nowitzki pulled out a long-range shot from beyond the three-point line, which was beyond Stoudemire's defensive radius. Xiao Si came out a little slowly, and was won by King Nuo.

Before the Mavericks had time to celebrate with a three-pointer, Jeremy Lin was like a whirlwind to advance to the three-point line, opening his hand to hit a three-pointer and coloring. Jason Kidd, who closely followed Jeremy Lin, was always half a step ahead of Jeremy Lin, whether it was a breakthrough, a pass, or a shot, the elder Kidd was more of a spectator than a defender.

The Knicks kind of opened the score with Jeremy Lin's excellent performance. And every touch of Jeremy Lin elicited a tidal wave of cheers at the Madison Square Garden Arena.

And Jeremy Lin is unreasonable at the moment, not afraid of death, going in and out of the Mavericks' interior line, back and forth, which makes the Mavericks players on the court gasp again and again, and they can't make a little liliang out of their bodies, so they can only let the Knicks do it.

Seeing that the signs were wrong, Mavericks coach Carlisle quickly called a timeout and signaled Terry to hurry up and prepare to replace Kidd, which would make the Knicks guard so wild and skillful in playing, and the Mavericks would become a steak on the chopping block.

While the Mavericks are aware of the problem, they apparently don't have enough awareness of Jeremy Lin's "neurotic play." And Terry, who had just come on the field, was taken to the ditch by Jeremy Lin's small sports car at a constant speed of 180 kilometers before he could warm up in a hurry.

"Oh, look at the ball, the referee blew Jason Terry for a malicious foul on Jeremy Lin. Two free throws and one throw. Oh, and the referee blew Jason Terry for an offensive foul. Jeremy Lin assists Novak on a three-pointer. Oh, this ball, Jason lost it again. Oh my God, poor Jason, he was substituted after only 1 minute on the pitch. George from the New York Sports Station was about to rehydrate with a bottle of mineral water in his hand, but before he could drink the sip of water, Terry was already quietly sitting on the bench again.

The competition on the bench in the NBA is very fierce, don't look at your best sixth man, once you make two mistakes, someone immediately rushes up to replace you. So the NBA is by no means a stage for talent to eat.

Lin's madness continued, and it wasn't until two minutes into the first quarter that he was replaced by Landry Fields. By this time, the Knicks had extended their advantage to twelve points.

It was also this timeout that the Mavericks replaced Marion who was defending Scola on the court. Honestly, if it weren't for the Mavericks' main team being beaten by Jeremy Lin, the UAE might not have played so early.

Wang Xiaomu, who loves to watch the excitement, unexpectedly did not leave Jeremy Lin on the court this time to fight with Yi Jianlian. On the one hand, the positions of the two are not matched, and on the other hand, Jeremy Lin needs to arrange a break. If he goes crazy with this kind of playful play, he is easy to self-harm.

Yi Jianlian, who returned to the United States from the CBA arena, has not been able to get rid of the role of playing soy sauce in the NBA, and even domestic fans can only use his performance in "garbage time" to masturbate. At this time, the United Arab Emirates also seemed to be a little back, and after coming on the court, he made a foul on his brother-in-law (replacing Chandler), but unfortunately missed both free throws, and the subsequent jump shot could not be hit. Fortunately, the defensive end was okay, blocking a mid-range hook from Scola.

But in addition, the UAE is really mediocre, not to mention keeping up with the offensive speed of the Knicks, and even can't even run his own backup center when he returns to defense.

There is a joke about Hei Yi Jianlian on the Internet: he contributed an average of 10 times for his teammates, handed out towels 5 times, handed water 8 times, and applauded 12 times of all-around quasi-triple-double data, completely dominating the rest area.

Yi Jianlian's play not only made the Mavericks head coach very displeased, but also made Knicks coach Wang Xiaomu frown, this kind of play is a drama role in any team.

Wang Xiaomu, who mourned his indisputability, sighed and had to help somewhat, after all, he was also a mainlander, wasn't he?

Now that he has made up his mind to help Yi Jianlian improve, Wang Xiaomu began to think about countermeasures.

After careful thinking, I found that Yi Jianlian often had many problems:

1. The body is thin and the upper limbs are insufficient, so that he steals to play with a big forward and dodges the attack when he encounters a small forward.

2. The defense is not sticky, and the consciousness is poor, so that the offensive players see him as if they have won the two-color ball, and the pervert meets Mr. Cang

In addition, the bias of Xiangyou side attack makes his scoring methods and offensive angles appear single, his passing ability is poor, and although he is active in rebounding, he does not have the ability to directly launch a fast attack.

If needed, Wang Xiaomu can even analyze the shortcomings of the UAE all the time, and the biggest gain from coaching the NBA during this period is that his vision has improved, which is stronger and which is weaker, and he can see through it at a glance.

Before Wang Xiaomu, who was complacent, had time to get nervous, he was depressed and found that this problem would not be solved in a while. Fortunately, he is not his own star, otherwise he would have been cured with half his life.

After pondering for a long time, Wang Xiaomu felt that his latest improved "strong talisman" should be more suitable for Yi Jianlian's taste.

Powerful charm, as the name suggests, is to increase liliang, just like billiards lovers firmly believe in the "vigorous miracle", Wang Xiaomu believes that the team's guard line liliang deviation, this is his traditional mountain reclamation, force to pull out the mountain after the transformation of the product, the original kind of power is too great, it is not easy to control, just blindly brute force, using too much also has an impact on the brain.

After making a plan, Wang Xiaomu began to look forward to Yi Jianlian's appearance, and then gave him a shot when he passed by him on the court.

It's a pity that Wang Xiaomu is like a ** silk fan waiting for a celebrity autograph, and the second quarter is halfway through, and he hasn't waited for Yi Jianlian to play.

The UAE is also broad-hearted, he watched the game on the bench very seriously, and when his teammates played well, he waved a towel to cheer, not to mention, the slender figure is really a bit of a Wu belt.

Wang Xiaomu, who was in a hurry to experiment with his new product, naturally didn't want to wait for a long time, and waved his hand to signal his team members to impact the basket, consuming the physical strength of the Mavericks.

Of course, the first problem with physical strength was Jason Kidd, who was a little distracted today, but he didn't expect Jeremy Lin to be in a terrible state on his defense, and he was simply dominating the second quarter of the game. After less than 3 minutes of play, Mavericks coach Carlisle had Vince Carter and Kidd Sr. swapping defenses; But only 2 minutes later, the old flying man Carter was scorched by Jeremy Lin; The helpless Mavericks coach actually arranged Marion to defend Jeremy Lin. This change of formation has also given the global media something to say.

"It seems that the weird lineup that the New York Knicks coach has put out has worked wonders, and the Mavericks have changed their lineup a lot and are now sending their strongest small forward to defend the opposing playmaker." The German press believes that such a scenario is absolutely impossible in European basketball.

"Carlisle seems to have been infected by the opponent's strange tricks, and he actually made this brainless defensive arrangement." The media in Dallas believes that the head coach has made a major mistake in coaching.

And the media in New York was full of praise, "Jeremy Lin, the great Jeremy Lin has blown up the opponent's two starters, and now it's Marion defending Jeremy Lin, God, Lin is definitely the great playmaker I've seen, is it Nowitzki defending Jeremy Lin next?" ”

Seeing that the opponent was misplaced defending, Jeremy Lin temporarily gave up the scoring option and handed the ball to Stoudemire on the court, while Odom, who was defending Jr. S, was helping Carter defend Scola. The unmarked Stoudemire caught the ball in the air and was directly selected as one of the top ten NBA balls today.

Mavericks coach Carlisle was about to find an opportunity to ask the referee for a timeout, but he didn't expect the Knicks' Wang Xiaomu to be more anxious than him, and seized the opportunity of the Knicks' ball possession to take a timeout.

The Knicks on the court were also at a loss by this timeout, and they played well? The situation is good, isn't it? Why is it suspended?

The Knicks generals who were summoned to the bench by Wang Xiaomu actually received new instructions and went all out to make the opponent's Odom foul.

"Head, this is the second verse." Stoudemire, who was temporarily opposite Odom, was a little puzzled, it was too early to make a foul, and if he wanted to make a foul, he would at least have to go to Nowitzki.

"Less nonsense, more effort, how the Mavericks reversed in the last game, relying on strict defense, this Odom is the core of the opponent's defense, we need to let him foul more and throw a mouse." Wang Xiaomu may be weak-hearted, and explained to the team for a long time.

The suspicious Knicks came on the court with odd instructions, and the Mavericks were just in time to be set up.

Maybe this time it really made Wang Xiaomu's blind cat meet a dead mouse, and the head coach of the Mavericks really arranged for the whole team to press the defense, which worked wonders in the last game against the 76ers. In the last game, the Mavericks also came back from 11 points down in the first quarter, and the key figure was Odom, who was on the court at the moment.

As soon as the two sides fought, the Knicks found that the opponent had indeed used pressing-marking tactics to strengthen their defense from the inside out. While admiring the head coach's command and anticipating the enemy's opportunity, Jeremy Lin faked a real pass and sent the ball to Stoudemire twice.

Smalls singled out Odom twice, once failing to score and once for Odom to foul. With two free throws and one hit, it didn't seem like a good deal to beat Odom.

However, the Knicks have recently improved their record and their execution has also strengthened, and after conceding the ball, they made a comeback, and Cameron rushed directly to Odom under the basket. The bald Odom stepped up and was induced by Anthony's aerial spin to foul the thug.

The Mavericks obviously didn't expect the opponent to slam their team's best defender, causing Odom to commit three fouls in a single quarter. In order to preserve the defensive strength, the head coach was replaced by Yi Jianlian.
