Chapter 111: A Super Shooter from Marquette University

Anthony's team is still ahead of the Grizzlies, so he didn't rush to attack, but watched the Grizzlies' reaction, and a feint fooled Guy before suddenly throwing a long shot to the opposite corner.

"This pass is dangerous, how can you pass the ball through people." Van Gundy gave a look of disdain.

"Of course, you can also understand that you are a master of art and bold." Reggie Miller said quietly.

Novak received the ball very comfortably, and Anthony's passing power was very well controlled, and the first shot was right in the chest, so he could shoot directly without making any adjustments.

The ball draws a graceful arc and sits firmly into the net.

At 64-69, the Knicks still led by four points.

"What a beautiful way he shot, Reggie, what do you think, do you think he compares to you at your peak?" For the shooter who won the three-point title in the past season, Van Gundy is particularly concerned.

"His shooting point is very high, and the average person is really not easy to defend, after all, he was also a member of Marquette University back then, and as Wade's former teammate, he still has a certain strength." Miller added.

Yes, if there is one thing that has to limit him, it is physical talent, and it is difficult for a white player to become a star if he does not have a strong body, after all, coaches like players who are fast on their feet and good defensively.

After all, there are still a few people with talent like Rudy Gay opposite, and ironically, the highlight of Novak's life was against the University of Connecticut.

He scored 41 points and 16 rebounds against UConn, the second-ranked Great Eastern, and helped his team win 94-79. Although Guy was no longer on the team at that time, it was Guy's alma mater after all.

Now that the two are competing on another field, it will add a bit of a gimmick to tonight's game.

The Grizzlies' offense here is also very fast, and Li Ming, who is back on the court, is very active, rushing left and right, constantly looking for opportunities for his teammates, and the Knicks' defense is scattered by him and Conley.

Randolph under the basket became the biggest beneficiary, and he used his footsteps to single Stoudemire many times.

Small's explosiveness is obviously not as explosive as in the previous two years, his knee is too heavy, and the worries of Knicks management seem to be groundless, originally thinking of sending him away while he still has trade value, but he didn't expect to be injured again in the playoffs against the Heat last year.

Now the managers of other teams in the league have also seen his glass physique and are unwilling to pay for him, after all, now that the league has a new interior player like Griffin, the renewal of new blood has been put on the agenda, and the teams are ready to show their strength in the draft.

Felton played the ball to Anthony in the middle line after a stoppage, and Anthony gave a big blow to Smalls, who slipped to the basket.

Smalls hit Randolph twice and then passed to Novak at a zero angle.

"It's not good, don't let him make a move." Just as Li Ming shouted, the super shooter from Marquette University hit the bottom corner three-pointer again.

"Oh shit, how can you get him to shoot, he's got a basket in that position." After being scored, Lee was obviously a little impatient, constantly yelling at his teammates, and it was one of our protagonists tonight - Rudy Gay who was in charge of keeping an eye on Novak just now.

Guy lowered his head and muttered, meaning: I have been defending Anthony before, and it has consumed a lot of physical strength, and this ball just now was the opponent's luck.

Li Ming was obviously emotional, as if he was going to smash the basketball when he dribbled, and kept sitting outside the three-point line with his crotch dribbling, constantly searching for open opportunities.

"Lee" Gasol stretched out his right hand, and Li Ming gave it to his hand with a high hanging.

However, this will boost the morale of the Knicks, and the pace of the players seems to be much faster, and Gasol's ball is poked away by Felton behind him before he can put the ball down.

Anthony yelled and dribbled across the midfield, and a timely insertion from his teammate allowed him to add another assist.

It was Novak, who had just scored three points, that scored, but this time he switched to a mid-lane layup.

The Grizzlies' defense has not been able to keep up with the Knicks in time for several rounds, and it may be that the gains and losses on the offensive end have also affected their mentality, so they always leak people when defending pick-and-rolls.

"Steve is very determined, and it seems that the four-year, $15 million contract that the Knicks gave him this summer is worth it." Miller is also optimistic about this poster.

"It would be nice if he could train a little stronger, if he can't let go of the opponent's small forward in a small lineup, he will probably not get any playing time, after all, D'Antoni's employment is still very stubborn." Van Gundy expressed concern about his prospects.

Although D'Antoni's side advocate attacking first, that doesn't mean he doesn't want to defend.

Conley and Li Ming here completed a simple pick-and-roll coordination on the line, and then Li Ming returned one outside the three-point line. It can be regarded as stabilizing the team's position a little.

However, the Knicks' Anthony will also be considered to be taking advantage of the Grizzlies' interior line, wantonly killing and injuring Randolph and Gasol, which will make Anthony seven or eight free throws.

Hollins had no choice but to replace Gasol Jr., who had already committed four fouls, and brought on the relatively inexperienced Arthur.

"Why don't you use Quincy Pondsett in the Grizzlies? Is it the cause of the injury? Reggie Miller was also puzzled by Hollins' hiring of personnel.

After all, this Bombset is a player who has proven himself in the Trail Blazers and Pelicans, with height and reach, and a good sense of filling under the basket, but it has not been reused by Hollins, which is very strange.

Arthur came on the court against Stoudemire, and the Knicks' passing was also very targeted, constantly looking for this misplaced spot. Arthur's slightly thin body suffered a lot in the process of defending Xiao Si, and he gave Xiao Si two free throws for nothing as soon as he went up.

This also invisibly increased Novak's chances on the outside, because Arthur's body was a little thin, and it was still a little late to top Stoudemire alone, and Conley and Guy could only help him fill in from time to time.

Xiao Si, who encountered the bag, immediately gave the ball to Novak's hands, and he became an empty shot again, allowing Novak to score 11 points and 4 rebounds in a row in just half a quarter.

"Rudy, give me the ball." Conley yelled at Guy from beyond the three-point line in a key position.

However, Guy didn't choose to pass the ball, he lifted the ball directly over his head, and after a punch, he suddenly accelerated to try to break through Anthony's defense.
