Chapter 235: When the Hell Is It......
Can be ...... other tactics
Li Wan's pick-and-roll with Tyson Chandler?
Doesn't this treat Levan as if he were Chris Paul?
It's too condescending.
Lee can't be pinned to Chris Paul's template.
Then all the staff pull away and let Li Wan play alone?
As the league's "new scoring champion" last season, it seems that it is not impossible.
But Li Wan's excellent passing and Steve Nash's good passing vision when he comes to say, isn't it wasted?
And, as far as D'Antoni himself is concerned, he prefers a moving style of play.
After thinking about it for a long time, he decided to give Stan Van Gundy a call to learn from it.
Outcome......
Stan Van Gundy's surging words made D'Antoni "open the toilet" - he figured it out!
What "Coach Anthy" is talking about......
Don't think about it so much, just give the ball to Li Wan, attack, that's it!
This tactic made D'Antoni gasp, it was ......
Terrifying!
Speaking of his heart:
Since any tactic may limit Li Wan's play, isn't "giving the ball to Li" the best tactic?
For this reason, D'Antoni specifically talked to Li Wan:
"Man, I think any tactics will limit your ......"
It's not that I can't think of tactics~
As the "king of the offense", it is impossible not to think of offensive tactics!
It's really for your good~
Li Wan nodded, pretending to believe this bad old man.
In fact, the most suitable style of play for this team is the smooth passing of the Spurs last season, and most of the players in this team have a good passing ability.
But that takes time to run in, and the other ...... D'Antoni really can't come up with such a tactical system of "everyone is a soldier".
From what Li Wan knows, D'Antoni's best thing is the "Kombat Whirlwind" that gives the ball to the point guard. There is basically not much passing between teams.
The good news is that this Knicks team has a lot of experience, and the chemistry comes up, and the passing is natural, but it will take time......
If you look at it this way......
Giving the ball to Li Wan right now is indeed the best way!
Fortunately, Li Wan's physical fitness has reached 85 this summer, which is only 1 point away from the 86 of his potential ceiling. It's not just the result of his training, it's also a lot to do with his age.
Generally speaking, 24~30 years old is the peak of a player's physical fitness.
Of course, some monsters are not counted in this, like LeBron, in the playoffs of the 17~18 season, he could play about 42 minutes per game on average, and he was 34 years old at that time!
Regardless of other aspects, when it comes to physical fitness, God does favor LeBron too much. Ordinary monsters can't compare to him.
Li Wan, who will be 23 years old in two months, has gradually entered the peak of his physical fitness.
Even if he holds the ball in his hand for a long time and plays sports battles, for Li Wan, there will not be any physical problems.
In addition, Li Wan's breakouts, layups, air cuts, and off-ball runs have all grown to more than 80 points this summer.
Let's put it this way, except for the back body, and the ability to attack the card position, which has a potential value of only 75, all other aspects related to offense have reached more than 80 points.
Although they are only in their early 80s, coupled with the mid-range jumper that has reached 90 points, Li Wan's normal state is infinitely close to the supergiant, if the "nerve knife" badge is opened, those three minutes will definitely be the "supergiant of the supergiant".
If you turn on the "Reverse Melancholy Little Prince" badge, not to mention, that account is no longer the "God of Basketball", it is directly ......
Beyond God!
The worst ability in all aspects of the defensive end has also come to 78 points, and the higher ones, such as the help defense, have come to 86 points, and the steals have come to 83 points.
Overall, it should also be the top defensive player in the "best defensive formation......
But because no one has an ability value of more than 90 points......
Li Wan estimates his defensive ability, but he still can't win the "Best Defensive Player Award"!
Let's put it this way, Li Wan is still a little bit behind on both offensive and defensive sides, and he can become a "human weapon" that "integrates offense and defense"!
Don't look at it just a little......
Supergiant players are actually a little bit different from regular season MVP players.
The league has at least 20~30 super-giant production in every era, but the entire NBA has only 35 regular season MVPs in 2022......
So, it looks a little bit close, but it's almost the difference between more than 100 and 35......
Of course, the league is both a "regular season MVP" and a "best defensive player" player, with only 4 players in total.
They are Jordan, Robinson, Olajuwon, Kevin Garnett.
If you win the "regular season MVP" and "best defensive player award" in the same year, only Jordan and Olajuwon will be awarded.
And from this point of view, you can see how rare it is to have a player who "integrates offense and defense".
Later, there was only one "alphabet brother".
However, I don't know how many steps and achievements there are in the deterrent power of "Brother Alphabet......
The same is true, Li Wan, who is infinitely close to both the offensive supergiant and the "Best Defensive Player Award", must already have the strength of the "league supergiant".
But if you don't turn on the buff, for the time being, he doesn't look as buggy as Jordan and Olajuwon.
Looking back on his own growth along the way, Li Wan can be regarded as deeply aware of how difficult it is to become a "genius among geniuses"!
OK......
As soon as he entered the All-Star this season, he could immediately shout:
Rise up, my ......
No, it's ......
Upgrade it, my templates!
This time it's an S-class template, right?
I don't know who it will be......
On October 8th, the schedule for the new season was released.
New York fans are looking forward to the long-awaited "Ring Giving Night", and the Knicks' first opponent of the new season has also been officially revealed.
The moment the name came out......
Li Wan knew it well......
The official league is really a bunch of manuscripts!
The first opponent of the Knicks in the 2011~2012 season was none other than the Orlando Magic!
Lewan will receive the second championship ring of his career right under Howard's nose. Don't talk about others, even Li Wan can feel how embarrassed Howard will be when the time comes!
However, the alliance does have a lot of gimmicks to do so.
From the comments that fans can't wait and think that the opening game will come soon, it is enough to prove that the arrangement of this opening game is really ...... Hit the jackpot!
When Howard saw the opening game, he was stunned......
He seemed to hear that someone rushed into the locker room at the moment and shouted at him: "Ah Huo, it's over, it's all Li Wan's people outside...... We're surrounded! ”
It's really ......
gtmd!
"Beasts" are so pitiful!
Is it necessary to target the "beast" so much?
Give me such a big job as soon as you come up!
Am I alive anymore?
Originally, the Magic team did not operate much this summer and cut Vince Carter, which was already very disappointing to Howard, and now I see this schedule......
Howard even felt that the world was terrible!
No, when, my career rotted like this?
Obviously in 09, I was still a promising "Orlando Superman"!
Why is it now the designated background board of the alliance?
Howard couldn't figure it out.
LeBron breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good not the Heat.
Although after becoming the boss, LeBron feels that everything is back. But after all, he has just "ascended" in Miami, and the whole team is not at its best.
At this time, he was not completely sure about touching the Knicks.
Therefore......
There's always one person who is the backdrop, and that's ......
Howard and the Magic!
Another person who is watching the opening game is Kobe Bryant.
The Lakers' first game of the year is also a tough one, as they face the Los Angeles Clippers, who have made the biggest trade move of the summer.
Billups plus Cameron Anthony, plus Griffin and Jordan Jr., this lineup is not simple just by listening!
The Clippers even shouted "It's time for the weather to change in Los Angeles"!
It's just that Kobe's gaze didn't stay in this game for too long, but went all the way down, as if looking for something.
Finally......
Bryant's gaze stopped again.
What he watched was that on December 25, the New York Knicks hosted Los Angeles!
Sure enough, it's the "Christmas War"!
Long before the schedule came out, some media predicted that this season's "Christmas War" would definitely have the Lakers and Knicks, the opponents of last season's Finals.
Now it seems that everyone does know a lot about David Stern's urine......
Then wait, Li Wan!
See you at the "Christmas War"!
The New York media has been revealing details about the championship ring these days.
The third championship trophy in the history of the New York team.
It was also Dolan's first championship trophy after buying the Knicks in 1997.
For this championship ring, Dolan was not stingy at all, took out 10 million, and specially invited the design team "Jason of Beverly Hills", who had several experience in designing championship rings, to design it.
The photos have been disclosed several times before, but they are all unfinished versions, and this time the New York Times has obtained a high-definition large picture of the completed version, and the overall design is in line with the fashion atmosphere of the city of New York.
Among them, Li Wan's one is the most special, and the ring face is directly engraved with the words "King of New York".
The New York Times' assessment of this is simple and clear:
Deserved!
After all, it was the man who made New York fans kneel twice.
In particular, the scene of tens of thousands of people worshipping the "championship parade" has become one of the most classic photos in NBA history.
When Li Wan saw the ring, he was also very satisfied.
Compared to the Magic's stingy championship ring, Dolan really doesn't have to say anything about spending money.
Well, he seems to have only that one advantage.
But if you think about it carefully, this one advantage alone seems to be enough......
As long as he doesn't have cerebral palsy, Dolan can even wrestle with the best boss in NBA history.
The Knicks played their preseason game during that time.
6 matches, including two Huaxia matches, with a final record of 3 wins and 3 losses.
The media didn't pay much attention to it, and ESPN even posted the preseason record of Li Wan's career in 5 seasons, and it can be found that Li Wan's team has a poor preseason record every season.
But in the end, the worst playoff result in the four seasons that Li Wan has played is the Eastern Conference Finals......
And as long as you enter the finals, you will definitely win the championship!
It's really scary!
The preseason is over, and the Knicks' new season lineup is also completely locked:
"No. 1: Leewan, Beverley, Nate Robinson;
No. 2: Ray Allen, Cook;
No. 3: Artest, Vince Carter, Odom;
No. 4: Lewis, Turyaf, Rashid-Wallace;
No. 5: Tyson Chandler, Kwame Brown, Hassan Whiteside; ”
Among them, Hassan Whiteside was bought by Donnie Walsh from the Kings during the preseason. As a 10-year second-round pick, Whiteside, the future "Big White Rim", has not had much chance to perform with the Kings, belonging to the "water cooler manager", who only played 5 games in the whole of last year, adding up to less than 20 minutes, so Donnie Walsh only spent a little cash to bring him from Sacramento to New York.
When he first learned about this deal, Li Wan was quite pleasantly surprised.
This is the future "king of blocks" and "king of rebounds", another inspirational representative of the league.
Coupled with the experience of transforming Beverley, Li Wan thought that he had missed it again.
Just waited for him to come, watching him being bullied by Kwame Brown and Tyson Chandler, Li Wan also reacted, this product belongs to 14 years, don't look at it is almost 2012 now, it has only been two years.
But you must know that Zhou Qi played better than "pork belly" and better data performance in the international competition, and by the time he played in the Australian League, Jokic became the best center in the league, in fact, it was only a few years.
2 years is a short time, but it is actually a long time.
Judging from the situation of the "big white side", he still has to wait for the "small ball era" to come before he can have a time to play.
In addition, as the future "block king" and "rebounding king", he only entered the "Best Defensive Second Team" once in the end, not without reason.
This guy is physical, but his defensive awareness is really poor......
The style of play is a bit suspicious of Marcus Camby during the "Best Defensive Player Award" period!
Anyway, D'Antoni gave him 12 minutes in the preseason and then completely abandoned it.
After watching his performance, Li Wan finally made the decision to ask the coaching staff to arrange more physical exercises for him. With his current level of growth, it was too early to tell him anything else.
He's different from Beverley.
Beverly belongs to the "semi-finished product", process it, give a little time, and you can use it.
Whiteside ......
It belongs to the jade of the jade, and even, the rock outside is so tightly wrapped that you don't even know that there is jade underneath the stone.
The man who had the best performance in the six games of the preseason was Cook.
He averaged 2 three-pointers on 42% shooting per game. At the same time, the layup momentum under the empty cut basket is also fierce, averaging 12.5 points per game.
Li Wan didn't just compare with him once, starting on September 7, almost every two days, he would find Cook to go up with a three-pointer, and then stimulate him to practice more through Twitter.
It's fair to say that Cook is at the best of his career three-point form.
If there is an opportunity to play with the main team in the regular season, with Li Wan and others holding him back, D'Antoni believes he will be the X-factor on the Knicks' bench this season.
There were two players who surprised the most.
One is Rashid Wallace.
"Roaring Tianzun" is at this age, but he still has all-round skills.
The only downside is that the physical fitness is indeed a bit insufficient. Playing an average of 15 minutes per game is good, and coupled with the Knicks' fast transition between offense and defense, D'Antoni estimates that he can average 10 minutes per game in the regular season, which is already over.
Of course, that's enough!
Another player who surprised D'Antoni was Odom.
After a month of active training, Odom's body has recovered perfectly, and he has regained the style of the "left-handed magician" on the court, and when he holds the ball on the court, Li Wan can fully devote himself to attacking.
It's a pity that he also has shortcomings......
Long-term use of marijuana has prevented him from staying on the field for a long time, and once the time is too long, it is either a distraction or an outrageous mistake, D'Antoni specially pinched his watch, and the limit of how long he can stay on the field is 6 minutes in a row......
There are places of satisfaction and surprises, and there are naturally places of disappointment.
Like Vince Carter at this time, it is unrealistic to expect him to break through with the ball.
This makes this team less than Li Wan, a stable ball-handling breakthrough. Although he knows that with more than 100 million invested this season, it would be a bit too difficult for Donnie Walsh to find another ball-handling breakthrough.
But he told Donnie Walsh about it anyway.
If you suffer Walsh a little longer, the future of the Knicks will be brighter!
The preseason is over, and the most exciting NBA opener is officially here.
The Orlando Magic arrived at the Knicks a day early.
The New York media specifically reported the picture of Howard and others coming out of the airport, and I don't know if it was a deliberate angle problem, Howard in the picture seemed to be crying.
It's just that he's like this, and the media reporters still refuse to let him go.
Before the game, a media reporter specially asked him if he had seen the championship ring that Li Wan was about to receive, and the joking expression seemed to say:
Want to touch it?
Howard looked around and the final decision was ......
Give me a middle finger!
Then he was fined 20,000 5 thousand.
There are all kinds of signs that Howard's mentality at the moment is about to stop.
And the moment that really broke Howard came quickly.
Madison Square, which has been silent for several months, welcomes the historic moment belonging to the New York Knicks with the black pressed auditorium.
Shaq O'Neal, who has retired, did not renew his contract, but did not announce his retirement, and Jason Williams, who is in a state of "semi-retirement", came to the scene to receive their championship ring.
They were greeted with wild cheers when they appeared.
It's just a pity for New York fans that Yao Ming didn't show up at the scene. Even though it has been about 2 months since the announcement of his retirement, Da Yao still has thick straps and protective equipment tied to his legs, and it is really inconvenient to come from China. However, the Knicks management expressed their importance, specially sent a team to fly to China, gave Da Yao a championship ring, and also made a special on-site connection.
Now the New York fans are satisfied!
In fact, the New York media is discussing whether Yao Ming's jersey should be retired, New York can win the championship this season, and Da Yao's role in it is doubtful......
Of course, there is no small resistance, after all, he has only been playing for a year, which is too short.
But there are also voices that say: "What is this, there are shameless ones, even the number of players who have not played for the team have retired, Yao Ming has played for a season!" ”
Pat Lealey: ???
The New York management then replied that it would do so when the time was right.
And they also have to understand Da Yao's own wishes.
Retiring jerseys is not one-sided.
It has to be the will of both the management and the players themselves!
Like the Thunder wanted to retire Gary Payton's jersey, but the latter coldly refused: "I haven't played for the Thunder, I'm a superSonic!" ”
Amid the shouts of "King of New York" from the audience, Li Wan took the lead in taking the ring handed to him by David Stern. The second championship ring of his career, at this moment, is officially worn on his hand.
When he raised his hand with the ring, the cheers of the audience became unified:
“mvp!”
“mvp!”
“mvp!”
Ray Allen took the ring and swayed it carefully, feeling the hard touch, and the cold "Gentleman Ray" felt his eyes hot.
The moment the ring was worn on his hand, the feeling of satisfaction made him want to cry.
Before he cried, Artest was already crying.
What is "iron man tenderness"!
Odom wiped his tears in real time, the picture was too beautiful for David Stern to look at.
Shaq O'Neal smiled and accepted his championship ring.
He also deliberately put on the other four, and then showed them domineeringly in front of the media.
When it comes to the effect, Shaq has always been a professional!
Kwame Brown's expression was calm.
Three crowns in four years, you come and you are numb!
Vince Carter, who was sitting on the bench, had his eyes straight. He licked his dry lips and said weakly in his heart:
Next year, it's my turn, right?
Howard chose to hide in the locker room, originally thinking that he would feel better in this way, but looking at the close-ups of Li Wan that were given several times in the picture, he found that he didn't use it. His teeth were about to crush, and he was holding back a lot of energy, so uncomfortable that if he didn't vent it, he would immediately explode on the spot.
"Tear up!"
Eventually, he tore his jersey to shreds.
Finally......
It's a little more comfortable!
But when he turned his head and looked at Li Wan on TV, he showed a determined smile, and the anger that was finally suppressed came up again.
"Sting!"
There was no way, he could only tear his pants too,
Again......
It's a little more comfortable!
Howard, who was left with only a pair of panties, chose not to go to the TV.
“mvp!”
“mvp!”
“mvp!”
……
But the constant shouts from the TV set are unified and endless.
He immediately remembered the Orlando fans' kindness towards Li Wan in terms of cheers and stinginess towards him.
This panty ......
Don't!
"Sting!"
"Warcraft" suddenly felt that he was no longer restrained, and at this moment, he was sublimated!
"Howard, get ready to play! You ......"
In order to take care of Howard's emotions, all members of the Magic team specially left the locker room to him alone, and the awards were almost presented at the moment, and this summer's new reinforcement "Slam Dunk King" Richardson opened the door to call Howard, looking at the bare Howard, he was stunned, and his eyes became frightened.
He remembered the legend about Howard's male and female taboos......
At this moment, looking at Li Wan on the TV, he stripped naked, and the thoughts in his mind suddenly became brokebacked.
"You, what are you doing?"
Howard awkwardly turned his head to pick up another jersey while explaining, "I, I, I said, I'm so angry, can you believe it?" ”
But by the time he turned his head, the door had already been quietly closed, and Richardson was ......
Boiled~
It's over, it's a big misunderstanding!
Howard was angry and annoyed, his eyes unconsciously glanced at the TV, and in the picture it was Li Wan again, who was shooting one after another. The whole person was full of light.
Oh yes!
Smash the field!
I'm going to smash the field!
"Warcraft" muttered viciously, put on his clothes, and roared out the door: "Let's kill the Knicks and let them experience the pain of Champions Night!" ”
The Magic team was not surprised, they had expected this result.
Li Wan's victory will definitely give him great stimulation.
Except for Richardson.
Having witnessed the bare "World of Warcraft" with his own eyes, he had every reason to be suspicious......
Howard now belongs to "love and hate"!
This also explains why this "Orlando OK" combination suddenly collapsed.
Everyone is saying that Li Wan left because he couldn't stand Howard's obsession with the ball, but Richardson has been observing, and he found that Li Wan can get along well with any teammate, and this reason is obviously not valid.
So apart from this reason, what other reason is there that Li Wan has to go?
Now, after he accidentally bumped into Howard's appearance in the locker room tonight, he knew......
The new machine word digs a lot of this!
Yes, that's right, Howard fell in love with Li Wan and scared Li Wan away!
It can only be said that Richardson is a bit of a brain, but not much.
At the scene, the flag symbolizing the championship of the 2010~2011 season has been side by side with the other two championship flags. The cheers in the audience were also one after another.
When Howard came out, he even felt like the cheers were getting a little louder.
Is this targeting me?
Well......
Let's just say that when you feel targeted, the whole world is targeting you.
That's how Howard feels at the moment.
Don't be complacent, I'll make you laugh soon!
Seeing Shaq O'Neal on the bench and Artest on the court, Howard's anger was even greater.
Well, well, my enemies are here!
Just the jump ball that came up, he suffered a wave first.
Facing Tyson Chandler, in his best jump ball, Howard actually didn't skip.
He watched as the ball flew into Li Wan's hand.
Stan Van Gundy anxiously shouted, "Retreat!" Withdraw! Withdraw! ”
At this time, the big screen on the scene once again gave the starting lists on both sides:
"New York Knicks: No. 1 Lewan, No. 2 Ray Allen, No. 3 Artest, No. 4 Lewis, No. 5 Tyson Chandler;
Magic: No. 1 Filton, No. 2 Richardson, No. 3 Gallinari, No. 4 Brandon Buss, No. 5 Howard; ”
In addition to the addition of Richardson, the biggest change in the Magic's starting lineup this season is to push Brandon Buss to the No. 4 position and Gallinari to his preferred No. 3 position.
It is worth mentioning that Gallinari is 2.08 meters tall and Bass is 2.03 meters tall!
The fourth position is not as tall as the third position.
And this will become more and more common in the "small ball era......
Even the 1.98-meter "Dream Chaser" Green in the future can still be used as the No. 5 position.
It is also for this reason that the New York Knicks rushed to Bass for the first shot.
After Li Wan and Lewis blocked and dismantled, they were misplaced in front of Bass. Then pulled away, Lewis faced the 1.88m Felton and easily hit a 3-point shot.
Say it's top pitching......
But Lewis felt that there was really no one in front of him.
3-0!
The Magic hit back.
When Li Wan saw Howard asking for the ball on the inside again, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly:
What an unrepentant death!
Very good, sooner or later you will be rewarded with a "nightclub board"!
Tyson Chandler gave Howard space to catch the ball, but when he got the ball and was ready to play alone, Artest next to him was the first to wrap up.
Howard's ball movement was big, and Lewan kept an eye on it, and as Howard was about to give the ball to Gallinari on the flank, he took a step ahead and made a precise tackle.
The Knicks had a chance to fight back.
Gallinari chose to "hungry tiger pounce", delaying Li Wan.
It's just that Li Wan dribbled behind his back and easily dodged his pounce, making him almost "hungry".
Fortunately, Gallinari's mobility is here, and the quick return defense will not allow the Knicks to easily form a "5 to 4" situation. But because he caught up from behind, the Magic team inevitably had a few misalignments at the beginning in order to make up for him.
Li Wan observed that Ray Allen on the flank was facing Howard and passed the ball in front of him.
"Warcraft's" movement ability is great, but it is a little difficult to limit Ray Allen's shots from beyond the three-point line.
He was still thinking about whether Ray Allen would "shoot feints" to break through with the ball, and Ray Allen had already pulled out his gun and shot, and the whole action was just one word, he only said it once.
There was a "clang" sound.
The ball pops out of the frame.
Howard was still on his way back when Tyson Chandler easily grabbed an offensive rebound against a rushing Buss.
Then he quickly attacked and made a basket.
Bas dangled in front of him for a long time, as if he was holding a fake gun and shouting "to rob", but Tyson Chandler directly pulled out a real gun on the other side, stunned him, and made up more than a dozen shots by the way!
5-0!
Richardson shows off his shooting accuracy.
Catch-and-shoot from beyond the three-point line scores.
Sure enough, at the end of every "slam dunk king" is a "shooter".
The end of the "slam dunk runner-up" is even more likely to become the "all-time three-point king"!
In the next round, Li Wan assisted Tyson Chandler to complete a one-handed dunk under the basket.
This scene made Howard faintly feel a little familiar.
7-3!
The New York Knicks started the game with three consecutive offenses.
Thanks to Richardson's 3-pointer.
Otherwise, before the start of this game, the Knicks would have opened up a seven-point difference.
Howard actively looked for opportunities to attack under the basket.
Originally, he thought that Da Yao and Shaq were gone, and in this world, he could go there!
But against the Knicks, that familiar discomfort didn't go away.
Their more resolute wrapping allowed Howard's weakness in his ability to play the ball completely exposed.
That said, this is the main reason why Howard didn't end up being dominant on the offensive end.
At his peak, after he hit his back, he used explosive power to quickly turn around and hook his hand or dunk, which was actually very lethal under the basket, but the problem was that once he faced the bag, he was completely silent.
His passing action is big, he is obvious to find people, and he handles the ball casually.
In addition, he was just stolen by Li Wan for a ball, so this time he didn't wait for Artest to completely wrap it up, and hurriedly gave the ball to Gallinari on the outside.
It's just that as soon as the Italian got the ball, Artest returned to him and reached out in front of him.
Forced to shoot can't go in.
Howard protected the offensive rebound against Tyson Chandler.
But as soon as he landed, Li Wan emerged from behind him:
eed!
A slapped the ball out of his hand.
Next to him, Richardson quickly grabbed the hand and avoided Howard's turnover, but also missed the layup.
Tyson Chandler saw that Howard grabbed the rebound position in advance, so he simply stood up and stuck him, preventing him from exerting his strength, and Li Wan took advantage of the situation to protect the rebound in his hand......
Is it true that in the heart of every center, there is actually a "card blade" living in it?
Li Wanfa five, he has definitely not cooperated with Tyson Chandler in a similar routine. But now everything is so smooth.
After a quick counterattack, Lewis and Ray Allen crossed the basket and ran back, Lewis quickly reversed, and really formed a mismatch with Richardson.
As soon as others reached the three-point line, Li Wan delivered the ball to him.
"Huh!"
"Mr. 100 million yuan" feels really hot tonight.
Second three-pointer, again!
10-3!
Stan Van Gundy called a timeout.
Bill Wharton "peeps into the leopard", with only a few rounds, analyzing the Knicks' style of play in the new season, as a senior commentator, and has a very high ball quotient, although the start is only 2 minutes, he does see some clues: "This season the Knicks seem to have been grasping the wrong opportunities!" ”
Whether it's Lewis's two shots or Ray Allen's three-pointers, they were all shot in a misplaced situation.
Lewis was in good form tonight, but it must be admitted that it was really difficult for either Richardson at 1.98m or Felton at 1.88m to form an effective visual distraction when he was ready to shoot.
Drexler, who was sitting next to him, nodded, thinking that Bill Wharton was right, and looked at the special guest next to him, Steve Cole.
I saw that the former general manager of the Suns was also nodding thoughtfully and slowly at the moment.
Bill Wharton's words seemed to inspire him.
Misplacement......
Is it?
But although Bill Wharton has a pair of "eyes for discovery", he doesn't know that it is not D'Antoni's idea to deliberately find the wrong player to shoot.
His current requirements for the Knicks are: give the ball to Li Wan to handle, and then run the rhythm!
Li Wan did it all, so he was very happy, and when Li Wan left the stage, he almost performed "bang bang bang" in front of him.
Li Wan showed an expression of "there is a long way to go".
Passing the ball to a misplaced team-mate was naturally his idea, and he also hoped that D'Antoni would understand what he meant.
So far he did, and in the opening two minutes he had three assists.
But in just these few rounds, D'Antoni clearly hasn't understood what he means correctly.
However, he is not worried that there will be an expert to speak to D'Antoni on his behalf......
"Fight a little bit on the outside, fight a little bit, block and dismantle on the inside, block and dismantle, we are a team, OK?" Stan Van Gundy shouted hoarsely at the Magic.
After coming on the court, Felton played with the ball himself for the first time in this game.
Howard immediately went down after blocking and dismantling, but because he was in too much of a hurry, Felton didn't go around at all, and Li Wan stopped in front of him.
Unable to give the ball to the basket, even if Howard was in a hurry to jump to his feet, Filton could only give the ball to Richardson on the outside.
It's still three points, but this time the "dunk king" failed to shoot!
"Ho!"
Basket to the basket.
The 2.16-meter-tall Tyson Chandler has the advantage of height and arm span against the 2.08-meter-tall Howard, but in the face of the five-time rebounding champion, the "boxing champion" is still a little powerless.
Seeing that this guy has grabbed the position again.
Chandler couldn't help but scold:
"Damn it!"
But a voice came from behind him: "Stuck in position, don't let him jump!" ”
This voice is very familiar, so familiar that he subconsciously obeyed and did so, firmly stuck the position, Howard finally jumped up, but the Knicks No. 25 rushed out from the side and protected the ball in front of him again.
The Knicks fight back.
"Run!"
Tyson Chandler was still the first to move when Li Wan gave the order.
He seems to have found a way to play against Howard under the basket.
The Magic's roster has changed three times in three years, and even with a defensive guru like Stan Van Gundy coordinating the entire team, the defensive system is not built up so quickly.
In this round, the Knicks managed to break through the Magic's defense.
The middle door of the Orlanders, who had demolished the east wall and made up for the west wall, was wide open.
Li Wan tosses the ball to the basket.
Tyson Chandler dreamed of returning to the Hornets, relaying in the air and scoring a strong slam dunk.
"Ho!"
"The King of Fighters" felt like everything was back at this moment......
Howard looked at Tyson Chandler's appearance, and he felt more and more familiar, and when he saw Tyson Chandler taking the initiative to find Li Wan to high-five and show a bright smile when he returned to the defense, he ......
Enlightened!
Isn't this who I was back then?
That year, when I partnered with Li Wan, wasn't it also so happy?
He couldn't help but think of the doubts he had when he saw the schedule: when did his career gradually darken!
"Smack!"
The sound of the pass brought him back to his senses in an instant.
Howard, who was standing under the basket, looked down and saw that there was an extra ball in his hand.
Looking at his teammates again, waiting and watching outside the three-point line with his hands on his hips, Howard really didn't pay attention to the expressions of these guys before, but now he glanced at it and found this face?
?, are full of helplessness.
It's as if to say:
I'm really convinced of this guy!
“!!!”
This was undoubtedly another unexpected discovery.
When did he start to be so annoying?
"Smack!"
His movements were a little sluggish, and he was accidentally cut off by Tyson Chandler.
Seeing Howard lose the ball again, Stan Van Gundy put his head in his hands in agony.
At this moment, he wanted to give up......
If this magic team continues to coach, I am afraid that when the game is reviewed in the middle of the night, blood pressure will directly explode the brain.
There are 30 head coach positions in the league!
He is also the "champion coach......
There's no need to hang yourself from this tree!
He thought in his heart, Li Wan held the ball on the field and attacked quickly, and once again accurately found Artest's position.
"The Beast" scored the first two points of the new season.
He shouted at Li Wan in the middle of the defense.
With such an excited appearance, Howard couldn't help but turn his head to look at his teammates:
Lifeless.
With such a completely different atmosphere, Howard suddenly felt that the score difference of 12 to 3 seemed to be ......
It's normal!
