Chapter 3022: How did the Knicks get serious again

Jose Calderon dribbled to the frontcourt, and the Knicks players started running again.

As before, Zach Randolph and Kyle Korver each started running from one side of the baseline to the other.

With the help of Mutombo's pick-and-roll on the inside, Zach Randolph briefly shook off Kevin Garnett.

This time, Kevin Garnett is a good learner.

Instead of flying through the air like before, he stuck his position first, blocking the necessary path between Zach Randolph and the basket.

Watching Zach Randolph run out of the three-point line, Kevin Garnett's heart was a little proud.

Don't you like empty catches?!

I'm standing right here!

You have the ability to block me!

At this moment, Kevin Garnett seems to have forgotten the truth of his iron will, and only thinks that in this game, the Knicks must not be allowed to complete the scene of empty dunks under the basket he guards.

Even if Zach Randolph actually played catch-and-shoot, it didn't matter.

You can lose the game, but you can't lose face!

A regular season game, a loss is a loss.

But if Zach Randolph is allowed to play such a wanton play again.

Then won't his iron-blooded character collapse away!

This is something that Kevin Garnett will never allow to happen.

But what he didn't expect was that after Zach Randolph came to the three-point line, he didn't have the idea of hitting the basket at all, but ran to Kyle Korver's side to help block it.

Kevin Korver took advantage of Zach Randolph's pick-and-roll to get an open shot.

Immediately afterwards, Jose Calderón's pass followed.

Kyle Korver didn't hesitate after receiving the pass, and his hand was up and down.

"Huh!"

Three points scored.

The Knicks, who suddenly changed their style of play, made everyone present a little uncomfortable.

But no one cares too much about it.

It's not a big deal to just shoot a three.

However, when the game went on and on, it was finally the fans and Timberwolves players who realized that something was not quite right.

The Knicks' offense continues.

But this time, the Knicks simply didn't play.

After Jose Calderon dribbled to the frontcourt, he simply did not direct his teammates to run, but passed the basketball directly to the hands of Zach Randolph, who was stuck in the low post.

After receiving a pass from a teammate, Zach Randolph started to play with his back without hesitation.

One, two, three.

Kevin Garnett, who didn't react for a while, was pushed directly to the basket.

Zach Randolph immediately put his hands on the ball and turned quickly.

Raise the basketball high with your left hand and hook it lightly.

"Huh!"

Two points scored.

Kevin Garnett was stunned as he looked at Zach Randolph, who quickly returned to the defense after scoring a hook shot.

Didn't you say that you want to play empty and violent buckles?!

Why is it suddenly so formal?!

What's the hell?!

I'm ready to defend you all night, so I won't give you a chance to catch up, and you turn your head and start backing it?!

When it came time for the next offensive round, the Knicks were even more thorough.

Jose Calderón passed the basketball directly to Allen Iverson.

Aaron Iverson, who has been a tool man all night, has finally started to play the horror of his league's leading scorer!

Even with sudden throws, frequent scoring.

By the end of the second quarter, the Knicks, who had suddenly started to play seriously and were full of firepower, had already opened up the difference again.

At this time, the score between the two teams has come to 58-35.

The Knicks have a 23-point lead!

Such a huge score gap is enough to show what kind of disadvantage the Timberwolves are in this game!

Actually, if you think about it, you can figure it out.

The current Timberwolves still have a good lineup.

Even with the stars of Ratriel Sprewell, Sam Cassel, Kevin Garnett and Michael Olowokandi.

However, in this game, Michael Olovokandi is unavailable due to injury.

As a result, the Timberwolves' interior roster is incomplete.

Therefore, Hanning was able to allow Zach Randolph to try to attack the Timberwolves' interior with an empty dunk.

The rest of the Timberwolves players are not yet able to produce a chemistry of 1 plus 1 greater than 2 due to insufficient tacit understanding.

Offensively, the Timberwolves' offense is more like passing the basketball to the stars, with teammates pulling away and stars singles.

Compared with the Knicks' endless tactical changes, this offense is naturally much monotonous.

Firepower is also certainly insufficient.

If it was at the end of the season, the Timberwolves team would be completely run-in, and Han Ning would naturally not dare to let Da Yao and others play on the bench.

The inside combination of Kevin Garnett and Michael Olowocandi is really not weak!

It's actually quite simple to sum up.

is to abuse you while you haven't grown up yet.

However, the Knicks, who suddenly began to play seriously, made James Dolan, the owner of the Knicks in the box, anxious.

I've been waiting for the whole game.

What about the air connection and violent buckle that was said?!

Where did it go?!

If you don't do it again, he'll lose the bet after a while!

James Dolan sat in the box, and his heart began to get more and more anxious.

If it weren't for Robert Randolph sitting next to him, he would have rushed directly to the locker room, grabbed Han Ning's neck, and forced him to take the Knicks to play an empty dunk in the second half.

But that's because Robert Randolph is sitting next to him.

At this time, James Dolan could only pretend to be calm for the sake of face.

And Robert Randolph didn't say anything at this time.

In the first half, he had been slapped in the face several times in a row.

Even though he can now see that the Knicks haven't had a single dunk in a full quarter, he still doesn't dare to say anything.

What if he just finished speaking, and at the beginning of the second half, he hit him in the face again?!

The atmosphere in the box was extremely silent and awkward for a while.

At this time, Han Ning was in the locker room, looking at the players of the Knicks, and said with a smile: "Good job." ”

"Da Yao, you and Kurt will play in a while, and put this game into garbage time as soon as possible."

Da Yao and Kurt Thomas nodded in response.

Then Han Ning set his eyes on Zach Randolph and said softly: "Wait until the game enters garbage time, Zach, dunk the Timberwolves' basket for me!" ”

"Don't worry, boss!" Zach Randolph replied with a smile.
