Leonard suddenly threatened on the perimeter, something new Knicks head coach McWoodson hadn't expected.

However, every team has staff who are responsible for video processing and statistical analysis of data, and managers believe in statistics and big data more than this occasional occurrence.

Therefore, Woodson still chooses to see Leonard as the most worthy target for the Wizards' starting outside line in the next time.

Li Kaiming is still the Knicks' tightest defensive target, although his passing makes the Knicks dare not easily wrap up, but this does not mean that the Knicks have to watch him single out Quint Thomas.

After all, the level of the two people is not at the same level at all, and Quint Thomas may still have a bit of influence at his peak, after all, he was the 10th pick in the first round in 95, and he averaged 10+10 double-doubles per game in his best season, and he was a very influential player on the defensive end.

This is also the reason why after the injury of Smalls, the Knicks will put an old guy who is close to 40 years old as the starting No. 4 position.

But now it's 2012, Li Kaiming can call this guy uncle, no matter how powerful Quint Thomas is, he is still an old cold leg, and he can't keep up with Li Kaiming at all.

So the Knicks will inevitably use some packs, but compared to ordinary pack-and-clip tactics, Li Kaiming's packs need to be considered more.

Therefore, Leonard's presence became a breakthrough point in Woodson's design of the bag and trap tactics.

However, what made Woodson feel a little painful was that the facial paralysis on the opposite side tonight was unusual, hitting two open three-pointers in the first quarter!

That's something he and the Knicks players didn't expect.

When Leonard can hit three-pointers, it's hard for the Wizards not to take the lead.

So at the end of the first quarter, the Wizards led the Knicks by four points, 29-25.

Li Kaiming doesn't have many opportunities to shoot, although this Quint Thomas is old and not physically good, but his defensive awareness is very good, and he can often find the most suitable opportunity to call someone to come over and wrap it!

So in the first quarter, he restrained his shots, after all, the Knicks were all wrapping him, and his teammates were naturally in the open position, and the outside players felt very good, so he didn't need to play difficult shots.

He's now reached a new level where he's a little unwanted about the regular season, or more accurately, a little unwanted for anything other than game wins.

In the first season, because of the element of systematic tasks, he would deliberately pursue the statistics of the game, or he would be in a hurry to prove himself and strive to play some shocking performances.

But since becoming an NbA champion and an Olympic champion, he's immune to everything he's been after, and only victories and constant victories can stimulate his nerves.

At the beginning of the second quarter, it was still the playing time of the rotation lineup between the two sides, and the Knicks' lineup was still much worse than the Wizards, not to mention the defensive end, mainly on the offensive end, the Knicks did not have many people who could shoot stably on the outside.

Without Xiao Si, one of the core of the team, the Knicks mostly rely on Anthony on the offensive end, and the latter is also the most accurate player in the entire Knicks.

Jeremy Lin, who set Lin crazy with the Knicks last season, has signed with the Houston Rockets in the offseason on a three-year, $25 million guaranteed contract, and the Knicks are now understaffed.

Therefore, the players of the Wizards are also very single when defending the Knicks, except for Anthony who needs to squeeze cover and close defense, everyone else is a defensive step, and they go around the back when they have cover, and they don't take the Knicks' outside shooting seriously at all!

And the Knicks' players saw that the Wizards looked down on them so much, and they were angry in their hearts, so in the rotation stage, the Knicks' players shot when they got the opportunity on the outside, of course, basketball doesn't lie, the shooting percentage is there, and it can't be thrown in as soon as the brain is hot.

The Wizards' bench lineup is a board and a glance, under the rhythm of the two veteran bench vacancy, although the offensive efficiency of the Wizards is not as high as when the starters are on the court, but it is also quite methodical and looks very smooth.

By the time Li Kaiming and other starters played, the Wizards had stretched the gap to 7 points again.

The Knicks also hurriedly took Anthony back, and continued to play according to this trend, just like a boiled frog in warm water, the game time was over, and his side found that he couldn't beat the other side......

This is also the performance of many strong teams, which may not be able to maintain a fierce attack in every game during the long regular season, or be able to prevent the opponent from scoring points in every game.

But they were able to distribute their energy reasonably and maintained the same intensity throughout the regular season, not looking very strong, but the opponent would fall into their rhythm before the slow death was taken away to victory.

Anthony came up to wake up his team, so this time he didn't care whether it was Leonard in front of him or not, and started indiscriminate heads-up from the moment he received the ball.

Leonard's defense is very good, but Anthony is not a vegetarian at a historical level, not to mention that heads-up is what Anthony has been doing throughout his career.

Leonard stretched out his long arm to cover Anthony, who broke through the feint and suddenly ignored the defense and pulled up to hit a three-pointer!

43 to 39!

The Wizards still have limited tactics to the frontcourt, Li Kaiming received the ball and gave it to Brackey, who missed the layup in the face of Chandler's defense, Anthony grabbed the rebound, dribbled through the half court, and then faced Leonard's defensive three-point dry pull!

Two unreasonable three-pointers directly stopped the game!

43 to 42!

Madison Square fans danced to the rhythm of the music and celebrated that their home team had hit a beautiful comeback on this festive day!

Next to the court, Spike Lee, a well-known Knicks fan sitting in the front row of the VIP seat, and the famous director of New York, Spike Lee, involuntarily stood up!

He talked about the quintessence of Emerica and encouraged his home team!

"it! Give me a hard ass slap and let them know whose territory this is! ”

Spike Lee is a representative of radical fans in New York, he has to buy a front-row season ticket for the Knicks every season, he is a die-hard Knicks fan, so far in the first half, his home team has been pressed and beaten by the opponent, of course he is very unhappy!

After all, what day is tonight, equivalent to the Chinese New Year's Eve in China, it is the Spring Festival in the West, let the fans watch their home team being beaten tonight, that is not to let the audience cooperate with shouting "dumpling smashing" on the Spring Festival evening!

That's pure disgusting audience!

Therefore, after the Knicks played a momentum, Spike Lee also swept away the previous haze, stood up and began to express the depression in his heart that had been suppressed for nearly half of the court!

Sanders didn't make any special arrangements during the timeout, and now he is used to it, and most of the time the timeout is to interrupt the rhythm of the opponent's scoring streak, or to rotate the team's lineup, as for the tactics after the timeout.

When you have a team that can break out casually to open up the difference, do you need to set up any special tactics?

Give the ball to Li Kaiming and you're done!

When the game came back, the Wizards sent the baseline ball, Hinrich dribbled to the frontcourt, and Li Kaiming asked for the ball in one step on the inside, and then changed from his back to a face frame.

The Knicks still didn't dare to wrap up easily, Li Kaiming directly broke through the ball, a slow three-step rhythm change, and rushed to the basket to cause Chandler's foul!

Madison Square immediately burst into boos from the fans!

Spike Lee, who was next to the court, also stood up and pointed at the referee, and began to greet the referee in the most beautiful language, with the referee's mother as the center of the circle and the eighteenth generation of ancestors as the radius!

For this kind of off-court pressure, of course, the referee can only bear it, Li Kaiming stood on the free throw line and hit both free throws, 45-42!

The Knicks served and attacked, after Filton dribbled over the halfcourt, he and Chandler were about to break through to the inside, and Hinrich moved sideways to block Felton's breakthrough route, and the veteran's experience played a role while the latter was knocked away!

He pretended to be fouled while holding out a hand to look at the referee, but the ball was firmly in his hand, and as long as the referee didn't blow him, he could continue to attack.

The pressure from the fans just now gave the referee a face, blowing Hinrich's blocking foul, because the number of fouls had arrived, so Filton went straight to the free throw line.

The latter hit both free throws, and the difference was still two points.

The Wizards served to the frontcourt, and Hinrich wanted to block and break through, but was almost delayed by Filton and Chandler to steal, and finally controlled the ball and passed to Leonard who came to answer in an emergency.

At this time, there were 10 seconds left in the offensive time, Anthony would not let Leonard shoot, and Leonard still knew that he had a few pounds and taels when someone was defending, so he gave the ball to Li Kaiming on the inside.

Because there was not much time left to attack, Li Kaiming received the ball by turning around and passing Quint Thomas, and then went to the basket to make a layup against Chandler!

Chandler jumped high and slapped Li Kaiming's wrist!

Syllable!

The sound of the sound was heard by all the players present!

However, the three referees looked at it as if they were wearing sunglasses, and Chandler was stunned for a moment and then grinned and grabbed the rebound!

Li Kaiming learned the posture of the emperor and came to a picturesque stall in front of the referee!

It's a pity that the referee still didn't say it!

Madison's director gave a close-up of Lee's complaint and put it on the big screen.

As soon as the audience at the scene saw it, they immediately began to turn the object of booing to Li Kaiming!

Spike Lee, who was on the sidelines, also stood up and chattered.

"You shit! You wouldn't play without free throws, wouldn't you?

Let's see, whose home is here?

Madison is not as simple as you think! Brat! ”

Spike Lee still remembers the last time he was slapped in the face by Li Kaiming, so he has no scruples about spraying this time!

Chandler grabbed the rebound and gave it to Felton, who dribbled to the front court and went straight to Anthony in the low post.

Although Leonard's strength has grown after hard training, it is still worse than the ceiling level of Anthony's forward strength, and after being stuck, Leonard involuntarily began to push outward.

At this time, Anthony turned around the moment he received the ball, and directly shook Leonard to the point that he almost gnawed into mud!

After passing Leonard and getting to the basket, Anthony was about to dunk on Bradge, but unfortunately his bounce and arm span were really ordinary, obviously pushing Bradge away, but he was capped by the basket!

However, Anthony also has the advantage of jumping low, that is, he can jump twice faster than others, he picked up the rebound after jumping in a row, and scored again after causing a foul on Li Kaiming!

The whole of Madison was detonated in an instant!
