Chapter 69: Tried Out? (10,000-word chapter)

On February 18, 1997, the Knicks will have their last home game of February.

Patrick Ewing is back from injury, and some New York media have had a mediocre response to this.

After all, the Knicks' record has not been affected after the Gorilla injury, and they have also played a smooth offense, and several main players are getting better and better.

In the locker room interview before the game, a large number of reporters surrounded Li You, and tonight's game was also the Knicks' last national live broadcast in February.

Although the pre-game publicity was about the all-star point guard showdown, these little arch fire experts in front of Li You asked questions that were crooked to 108,000 miles:

"Lee, do you usually like to listen to Donnie Breston's songs? A lot of players in the league are fascinated by her! ”

After the New York Post reporter asked a question, everyone in the audience laughed and joked about Jason Kidd.

Wearing the white training uniform of the Knicks, Li You, who was in a good mood, also laughed with everyone:

"Donnie is beautiful, and in a few days, she's sure to be a big success at the Grammys, but I still prefer to listen to Maria Carey!"

Without waiting for Li You to finish speaking, the New York Times reporter on the other side immediately followed the gossip:

The cheers of the fans at the scene made Ewing feel comfortable, he is still the core!

Given enough advance, Cedric, who was still tugging with Larry Johnson, came to the basket and barely received the ball.

Lee Yo and Alan Houston nodded, and if they could lock down the opposite backcourt, the game would be much easier.

Li You slowly circled around the inside line, came to the right baseline position, suddenly took his left foot as the axis, turned quickly, and after blowing the ball, he grabbed the ball with his right hand, and instantly returned to the bottom right of the basket.

'Lee needs more chances to see how he's doing now and we made the right adjustments tonight.'

After watching the point difference return to 8 points, Kevin Johnson was completely discouraged, and in the subsequent game, only Kidd was still trying to pass the ball...

This is the second time that Lee has played against Gary Payton, and he has played much better than the last time.

"Oh!!"

42-10, despite only leading the Heat by two games, Ewing is confident that he can handle his junior brother.

Larry Johnson has recently started to focus on his playoff matchups in advance, and "Big Mom" is thinking about playing the Hornets, but it doesn't seem to be the right way for now.

Kevin Johnson, who was sliding backwards, had just come up to the defense, but Lee Woo accelerated again.

"The game is ugly? Ugly? We didn't care about that, and most importantly, we won the game! ”

Aside from two mediocre catch-and-shoot jumpers after a mediocre cover, there wasn't much action.

At 40:30, the score difference came to double digits.

Four minutes into the second half, Larry Johnson made two steals of Cedric.

It's rare to see such a transition attack in a mediocre game, and the New York fans in the scene cheered loudly after rushing through the half!

"Auntie" widened her eyes, stood under the basket, roared passionately again, and then turned her head to high-five Li You in celebration.

Fans think the game is not good, Jeff Van Gundy has enjoyed a sense of accomplishment for the first time in a long time, and tonight's game is under his control!

The New York fans at the scene, although not in high spirits, also cheered on the 10th consecutive victory.

The assistant coach on the other side, Thibodeau, also said aloud:

"Jeff, against the Suns with 19 wins, why did the team only win by 8 points?"

...

Jeff Van Gundy didn't say anything, but when he saw Van Axel shaking and hitting the three-point iron, everyone on the court ran like crazy, and his heart was still a little tangled.

Winning and grinning, at the post-game press conference, George Karl also followed the arch fire:

At this time, Li You hurriedly turned his head and reminded "Auntie" loudly:

At 1.93 meters, Kidd is physically strong, and like most talented players, after entering the league, Kidd has shown a mature style of play, which can be called the peak of his debut.

Playing 40 minutes, 6-of-13, 2-of-6 from beyond the three-point line and 4-of-5 from the free-throw line, Lee scored a game-high 18 points.

"Of course, remember to pay attention to your teammates and be careful of being robbed of your date!"

The defense failed, and "Big Mom" raised his hand to indicate that it was his problem, and opened the baseline ball, Li You did not wait for half the court, so he first compared tactical gestures.

There is a lot of presence on both ends of the floor, and Alan Houston, who played well in the first two games, is a bit invisible in comparison.

Approaching the three-point line, Li You, who was holding the ball in his right hand, did not slow down, but suddenly flicked his wrist while traveling, and the basketball suddenly bounced forward.

Jason Kidd at the top of the arc immediately after half-time, and then Kevin Johnson stepped up to the left flank.

But as the game progressed, everyone found that the game was not good-looking!

There were half fewer reporters in front of him, and the questions asked were all about how many points the team would win tonight, to which Ewing could only smile confidently:

Even if he loses, the gorilla is happy, and the New York media is full of praise for his performance after returning from injury.

Jason Kidd has stepped back to inside the three-point line to block Lee's breakaway.

At 24:26, the first quarter of the game was very anxious, and the coaching staff didn't expect the rookie Suns to last so long.

Lakers fans cheered loudly for the home team's defense.

When it was the home team's turn to take the stage, the cheers grew louder and louder, and Ewing was greeted with applause from the New York fans in attendance.

"Afraid of running into a former teammate? Aren't you and Mourning good brothers? ”

In the third quarter, a wave of 23:10 directly defeated the opponent, and in the end, 97:87, the Knicks won the opponent by a small margin.

Finally, Cedric moved to the bottom left of the basket and picked up the basket reflexively, and the basketball stumbled into the basket.

Jeff Van Gundy has heard this phrase many times, and after the heavy defeat to the SuperSonics, the coaching staff felt that they had to make a change, and the loss was so bad.

"We're still going to beat the last home game in February, we've got a good run-in and we're going to keep the momentum going!"

Noticing that the opponent wanted to move to defend, Li You, who quickly cut in from the flank, did not slow down, changed the direction of the ball with his right hand slightly, and his body slid to the left at the moment of switching to his left hand, and then suddenly took a big stride.

When Ewing received the ball in the left blocking area, Larry Johnson played more off-ball cuts, but the finishing efficiency under the basket was not very efficient and he missed a couple of chances.

was mobilized again to mobilize the center of gravity of the defense, Kevin Johnson lost his defensive position, and Li You, who shook out of the space, took advantage of the situation to close the ball, and made a steady jump shot at the front of the free throw line!

"Boom!!" Empty catch the storm dunk!

7-of-11, 2-of-3 from beyond the three-point line, 16 points, 3 rebounds, 10 assists and 1 turnover, and 6 of Lee's assists were easily obtained from Ewing.

On Feb. 19, the Knicks will have to pack their bags, and they have six consecutive road games to play in the next nine days.

Ewing was 1 of 4 in the 2nd quarter, but still didn't find his touch, and after losing to the SuperSonics, the gorilla almost closed himself...

“Let's go Knicks! Let's go Knicks! Let's go Knicks! ”

In the third quarter of the game, the Suns suddenly collapsed, and at 15:22 in the single quarter, the point difference was suddenly widened.

Li You played the whole first quarter of the game, and taking advantage of the break, Jeff Van Gundy hurriedly reminded loudly:

"Up front are Cedric Ceballos and Mark Bryant, and in the center are Holt-Rod Williams."

Starting from the back, he pressed closely, trying to cause Li You to make a mistake, Van Eccel pressed his body weight very low, and every sudden grab-up was ruthless.

Commentator John Andalis gave a brief assessment of the opposing lineup, and in his opinion, both point guards will suffer.

After landing on the ground, Larry Johnson roared passionately, pounding his chest, 2 of 9 in the last game, "Big Mom" just wanted to vent the depression in his heart.

Ewing also has an advantage as the core, in individual rounds, Li You can easily mix assists.

Jeff Van Gundy once again led the team to a typical "Iron Blood" battle.

Commentator Marf Albert was not in a high mood and the game was lethargic.

"The pace of the game was too slow, the opponent's defensive discipline was not very good, so we could have played faster."

The Lakers offense round, no longer blocking and dismantling the inside pass, came to the top of the arc to face Li You's defense, Van Excel quickly changed direction in front of the body, and after switching to the right hand, he immediately accelerated with all his might.

A beautiful counterattack layup, and the scene erupted in the biggest cheers since the start of the game.

After a full day's rest, the Knicks set off for Los Angeles again to take on the Lakers on the road.

Silver Fox Harris wanted to win by his height, but the new interior was inexperienced, and Charles Oakley frequently grabbed rebounds in the frontcourt.

When the players from both sides came to the center of the court, Jason Kidd also had a friendly fist bump with the Knicks.

Naturally, fans in New York wanted to buy tickets to support the home team's last home game, and as dJ began to introduce the visiting players, the boos began to rise, and some fans were still shouting when Kidd came out:

Eddie Jones, who was retreating, subconsciously turned his head, and his body also looked back, and the shouts of fans were heard in his ears, only to find that the basketball was back in Li You's hands...

Kidd chased the ball in place, and Alan Houston, who received the ball, again passed the ball to Lee Woo on the right flank.

At this point, Ewing also moved to the right low post and continued to get the ball with his back, while Oakley sank to the left near baseline.

The coaching staff has been preparing for this game for a long time, and no one wants to be killed by the season double.

Charles Oakley, who retreated, grinned and high-fived Lee in celebration, and the old guy rebounded strongly tonight.

After the official timeout of the game in the second quarter, the Knicks' main lineup all returned, and Ewing completely exploded at this time, constantly hitting the paint area and shooting directly in front of the basket.

The New York media at the scene felt that their faces were lost, Ewing was in excellent shape, and they blew together before the game, and the result was this?

Putting the ball with his left hand and dribbling forward, Li You suddenly exploded the ball vigorously on the spot, and with a slight pause, the rhythm of the dribble immediately changed.

"Mutual understanding doesn't play any role, we are stronger!"

Lee Yoo followed and continued to stay in front of Kevin Johnson.

Li You, who had been prepared for a long time, took advantage of the situation to dribble behind his back, paused slightly after switching to his left hand, and took advantage of the opponent's defense to defend again, and changed direction greatly in advance after lowering the center of gravity.

Lakers fans exclaimed, and then saw Li You accelerate to the right wing outside the three-point line and stop directly, and couldn't help but exclaim again.

"Although the age gap between you is a bit big, your physical condition is very compatible!"

"I love her ass!"

The speed of the breakthrough was not fast, Li You carried the ball in his left hand and rushed to the paint area with the defense, noticed that the Suns' defense immediately contracted, and quickly dribbled behind his back.

This time, "Big Mom" made a steal of Cedric, who cut into the basket, and after completing the steal, she immediately threw the ball to Li You on the left wing.

The Great Western Forum Arena was packed that night, O'Neal was sidelined due to injury, and Travis Knight was given a chance to start tonight.

There were only 69 rounds in the whole game, and under Li You's control, the number of errors was only 13.

The Madison Square Garden cheers resumed, but Kevin Johnson noticed that he and Lee Yo seemed to be more comfortable with his defense, and no longer blindly pursued speed and first steps like they did in their first meeting.

Li You also followed the business to blow to each other, and Kevin Johnson on the side didn't give the two of them a good look, so he turned around and left.

"Got Mark Bryant from the Rockets, this new signing is in great shape since joining the Suns!"

On the Knicks' bench, Jeff Van Gundy had just sat down when assistant coach Don Channey whispered:

Charles Oakley doesn't care about the stats, the old guy is just a little dissatisfied with not opening up the point difference, the two sides have a big difference in records, and the game should have ended sooner.

The powerful air-caught dunk made the Great Western Forum Arena resound with a burst of cheers.

"Shet!!"

"Either I'm gone, or Jackson is gone!"

"Larry, watch defensive!"

In the cheers of the New York fans, Ewing successfully jumped the ball, and after Li You controlled the ball, he noticed that it was still Kevin Johnson who was defending him, and immediately lowered his center of gravity and quickly dribbled across the half.

After losing their last game to the Timberwolves, the Suns' record has improved to 19-33, and there may only be a theoretical possibility of making the playoffs.

Larry Johnson spun around and revealed his thoughts, he didn't want to play positional offense anymore, he wanted to change his tactical play...

The schedule is naturally unreasonable, but the players can only passively accept it.

"The Suns don't have any chances, we're going to end the game in the third quarter!"

"That's not good news!"

Van Axel and Eddie Jones have partnered at the back, with Jeromy Corsey up front, Eldon Campbell and Travis Knight forming the twin towers.

After the opening Knicks star player scored, the New York fans at the scene thought it was a good sign;

was shown off, and Jason Kidd didn't expect that Li You could still play tricks after counterattacking the layup...

Ewing played 36 minutes, 8-of-13 from the field, 8-of-11 from the free-throw line, and finished with a team-high 24 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, 2 blocks and 3 turnovers.

Covering his mouth with a towel, Alan Houston whispered to Li You.

That night, everyone packed their bags and set off for Seattle to take on the SuperSonics back-to-back tomorrow night.

“...”

Madison Square Garden, less than half an hour before the start of the game, was already full.

Li You doesn't like older black girls, and more importantly, this black girl is not his cup of tea.

Despite Shaun Kemp's fluctuating form this season, the SuperSonics have a 36-15 record thanks to their excellent perimeter defense and agile forward.

In the first half of the game, the angry Kidd didn't shoot much, and as a point guard, he instinctively assisted his teammates and tried to drive the pace of the game.

In individual blocking rounds, Li You always stops and kicks up urgently, relying on Kevin Johnson, observing the defense and then making offensive choices.

"Gary was doing well tonight, if I'm not mistaken, he was 8-of-16 and scored 17 points, and don't forget he's playing an All-Star guard!"

"I'm not his good brother! I'm talking about Pat Riley, who knows our tactics all too well. ”

The new Kobe Bryant on the Lakers bench could hear the faint cheers on the scene, and at the same time his heart was sour, he looked at Coach Harris vigorously.

Seeing Li You accelerate again and rush to the basket, Eddie Jones hurriedly turned around to adjust his center of gravity and pounced again.

“oh——!”

Relying on his speed, Van Axel grabbed most of the position, rushed up in three strides and immediately leaned in to pick up the basket.

Jeff Van Ganh began to command passionately, and he predicted the collapse of his opponent!

George Carr grinned and didn't mention Ewing's performance at all, but kept praising Lee You's talent...

"Brilliant offense! Beautiful goal! Kevin Johnson Gets Tricked By Lee! ”

Ewing still maintains an efficient score, and Li You is very comfortable feeding the ball, all he has to do is to get in position, and then receive the ball in the right position, and then put it under the basket.

The "Big Mom", who actively participated in the fast attack, immediately rose into the air, fished the ball with both hands in the air, and then vigorously filled the basket!

"Mariah Carey seems to have broken up with Motula, Lee, maybe you still have a chance!"

It can be seen that Kidd's anger is surging, his expression is becoming more and more serious, and as soon as the game starts, he gets a focus buff.

The opposing Cedric was 2 of 9 in a single quarter, and only scored 4 points, "Auntie" was a little confused, the more iron he shot?

Jason Kidd, who was in a bad mood, was 4-of-6 in the half, 1-of-2 from beyond the three-point line, and had 9 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists.

Li You, who was fishing, watched the head coach of the Suns, Danny Ainge, communicating with Kidd, and was suddenly in awe:

Alan Houston took a big step away, Kidd's shooting ability was not outstanding, according to the game plan made before the game, tonight was a defensive shot, Ewing returned, and the team's rebounding was not a problem.

Lee You and Alan Houston have become tool men again, one is responsible for passing the ball to control the tempo, and the other is responsible for opening up space and receiving shots.

After Ewing received the ball with his back in the low post on the left, everyone on the Knicks pulled away at this point and watched the Gorilla single Mark Bryant in the low post.

In the end, 90:98, the Knicks successfully defeated the opponent and successfully won 10 consecutive victories!

Li You accepts the reality, of course he will not run blindly with a big center, the veteran Buck Williams is a short inside, Ewing is a big man.

On the bench, only Ewing was in the best mood, and it wasn't a bad thing for the gorilla to find out that the injury was not a bad thing, and after at least a short rest, he was back to his best fitness.

"Pay attention to the opponent's transition attack, everyone must quickly retreat and align in time!"

Kevin Johnson didn't lose his defensive position and remained at Lee's side.

Ewing is still in the low post on the left side, and the opposing center Hott is also pulling and pulling, and it is difficult to pass the ball, and "Big Mom" quickly returns the ball to Alan Houston, who bounces to the top of the arc.

Kevin Johnson originally thought that this was another center-forward single tactic, but he didn't expect Li You to sway right and left after receiving the ball, and immediately crossed steps to break through.

Ewing also felt that the pace of the game was good, he was very physical, and it was only a matter of time before he burst the Suns' interior line.

Kidd's pass was beautiful, but the New York fans at the scene didn't buy it, and after boosing, they still shouted the old terrier...

The Suns' offense has also changed a lot, Kevin Johnson receives the ball in the backcourt, and Lee Woo maintains a small distance, always keeping an eye on the opponent's movements.

"Lee, Donnie Bladstone also sent you an invitation, go back to New York, don't forget to go on a date!"

After releasing the ball with his right hand, Ewing relied on two hits, approached the paint area, quickly squeezed to the front of the basket, bounced away the opponent, and threw the shot.

"Huh!" Three-point shot hollow into the net!

This led to an increasingly ugly game, no points from the stars, and a loss of money tonight!

After receiving the pass, Li You did not slow down, rushed across the opponent's half, changed direction under his hip on the three-point line, and went straight to the basket after switching to his left hand.

'We're going to win, control the mistakes, wait for the opponent to make mistakes, that's a good strategy.'

Like Knight said, there are also a lot of Lee Woo fans in Los Angeles.

The offense is still fluid, and there are few mistakes, but you just can't beat the opponent...

Li You just dribbled a step horizontally, but he didn't expect that there was no defense next to him, and finally outside the three-point line, the left wing made a quick stop jump shot!

Although there was a direct jump shot, Kidd still chose to call for a pick-and-roll, and center Hult moved to the top of the arc, and Ewing was also called out of the basket.

On the plane to Sacramento, Ewing, who was in a good mood, organized a long-lost Texas Hold'em event.

Jason Kidd doesn't care about the boss's emotions, he has been sitting on the bench since he arrived with the Suns, and he naturally has to give the old guy eye medicine for treating All-Star guards like this.

"After the trade, the Suns' record has declined, and these guys won't buy the ball!"

"It's a shame that the next fight will have to be next season, Li, Ling is younger than I thought."

After jumping, Jason Kidd could only watch Lee glide to the bottom right of the basket, twist his right wrist, and easily reflexively pick up the basket!

“Kidd! Donnie has abandoned you! ”

Madison Square Garden was already silent, and Li You's goal rekindled the atmosphere.

In this offense, Ewing was still stuck with the Suns' center Holt in the basket, at the top of the arc, Li You used Oakley's cover to accelerate the breakthrough with the ball in his left hand.

Ewing and Hot on the inside are still entangled, and Li You, who got rid of the defense, picks up the basket with his right hand!

The atmosphere group immediately began to discuss this "peerless beauty", and the new John Wallace "hates stuffed eggs"!

"Excellent! Stick to our defensive strategy, the opponent is not good at three-point shooting, we just need to protect the backcourt rebound. ”

At the end of the game, Li You and Kidd hugged and greeted each other, and the two tacitly fished tonight.

After Lee Woo dribbled to his right hand, he accelerated with all his strength against the defense and approached the halfway line, and Van Ecel cut the ball again.

Wrapping the ball around his back, changing hands quickly, Li You twisted to the basket, and Jason Kidd could only jump up and block!

"Looking forward to the next encounter, you're a role model for me, I've always been learning how you handle the ball."

Eddie Jones immediately chased back to Lee Woo and tried to delay the attack.

After not touching the ball for two consecutive rounds, Patrick Ewing was not in a good mood at this time, and the position of the core player seemed to be challenged:

Ewing found that Li You was chatting more and more with the media in front of him, everyone laughed constantly, and he was a little sad for a while, he used to interview him!

Li You, who was forbidden to participate in the card game, was bored and watched a few people talk nonsense, in the next few days, this kind of scene will often appear, and everyone will have to shuttle between the plane and the hotel.

The Gorilla had a comfortable expression on his face, which was the Knicks he was familiar with.

On the night of the 20th, the Knicks had their first Western Conference away from home, and they will take on the Kings who are 24-29 that night.

Before the game started, the media in New York dug up the previous mess in the past two days, and the newspapers added fuel and vinegar to the wanton ridicule, which made Kidd lose face in front of his new teammates!

"Jeff, the Heat are still winning, and we only have one win left."

At halftime, commentator Mav Albert looked at the technical stats and praised Ewing's performance.

A rare beautiful goal finally raised the volume of the commentator Mav Albert.

"Pat was in very good shape, 7-of-8 in the half, got 18 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, and I think he's fully recovered!"

The Suns also wanted to fight back, but Jason Kidd couldn't find a teammate, and the two big men on the interior usually dragged back, with Cedric and Kevin Johnson being heavily guarded.

The good news is that there is more and more playing time, and Li You has played 40 minutes this time, and like "Big Mom", he has become a "coolie"...

Snatching half of the position, against Li You's defense, Van Eccel held the ball in his right hand and went straight to the basket!

A large number of forward players hoarded by the SuperSonics under George Carr.

Travis Knight had just landed and before he could get into position, he found his teammates already rushing into the paint area.

The game is about to start, and Jeff Van Gundy just gave a brief advice:

Ewing was 1-of-8 from the field and 5-of-10 from the free-throw line, with only seven points, nine rebounds, one assist, one block and three turnovers.

In the defensive shouts of the New York fans, this time the Suns attacked, Kidd received the ball at the top of the arc, noticed Alan Houston let him take another big step away, and threw it directly outside the three-point line!

Larry Johnson, who cut in from the right side at 45 degrees, got the opportunity, jumped up after receiving the pass, carried Knight who made another save with his body in the air, briefly pulled the lever, twisted his body to pick the ball to the rebound!

It's a pity that the Silver Fox didn't plan to activate Kobe Bryant at all and use new players to defend the All-Star guards, which is unreliable...

Ewing, who is full of energy, is very efficient and, above all, as a tactical core, usually passing his hands every time he attacks.

There was no one in front of him to defend him, and Li You quickly jumped after a quick stop outside the three-point line!

Jason Kidd can always find the right teammates on the fast break, and after coming to the Suns, he also has some bright passes on the bench, and when he enters the starting lineup, he naturally needs to pay more attention.

Kevin Johnson was the most depressed tonight, giving up the ball, but Kidd hit the iron in the second half, although the pass was beautiful, but Cedric felt his crotch and couldn't finish it.

At 13:12, with 6:38 left in the first quarter, the Suns led for the first time.

"Ahh

Everyone laughed again, eating melons for more than half a year, and the matter finally came to an end.

Lee Woo, who was holding the ball in his left hand, also followed to the left flank and sent a high lob pass with precision.

After returning from injury, the Gorillas were full of energy and easily completed the Knicks' first offense.

"Masters of Struggle!"

In the second quarter, the rotation lineup came on the court, and Li You changed into training clothes and sat on the bench safely.

Van Axel fell directly to the floor, the fans screamed again, but the referee did not say anything, Li You took control of the ball, and then quickly rushed to the opponent's half.

By the third quarter, as Jeff Van Gundy had expected, Kidd started to hit the iron, and then there was less and less play on the offensive end...

And the Suns have been prepared for a long time, with center Hult and new signing Mark Bryant entangled to prevent Ewing from receiving the ball easily.

"Big Mom" was prepared, but he didn't expect Kidd's pass to be bolder, and after the line block, Kidd, who was holding the ball in his right hand, came to the right elbow area of the free throw line, followed by a penetrating ground-hitting pass.

Alan Houston next to him was a little unhappy, he was so efficient in the last game, and he played back to the original form tonight:

Van Axel, who got up to chase after him, had a dark face, and he threw it? Still in?

6-of-11, 1-of-4 from beyond the three-point line, 2-of-3 from the free-throw line, 15 points, 4 rebounds, 10 assists and 3 turnovers, Jason Kidd finally made his own assists double-double...

Jason Kidd didn't care about Kevin Johnson's gaze behind him, smiling and greeting Lee You.

When the physically fitted Ewing is at the heart of the game, like any other traditional centre-forward, he always starts with a low ball on the left and right flanks.

Larry Johnson, though out of breath, has a skinny camel bigger than a horse, and on the alert, has also made a couple of good defenses.

"Oh!!"

"That's a big beauty, if you miss it, you won't have a chance!"

Sean Kemp, Detreve Slam, and Jim McIlvain, the interior defense built by the trio makes it difficult for Ewing to receive the ball.

On the bench of the Knicks, the atmosphere group jumped up and down, constantly screaming, and every time Li You contributed a beautiful goal, it always ignited everyone's emotions.

"Huh!" Solid mid-range hits.

But in Li You's opinion, the bald Kidd is playing a teammate, and Cedric obviously feels across, and he is still a strong passer.

After Van Excel appeared on the court, he led the defense of Li You and entered the All-Star, and a bunch of people followed Cha Lemon, and Fan Maniac turned into lemon essence tonight.

"With a two-point guard lineup, Kevin Johnson may have to make some sacrifices, and Jason Kidd needs to have the ball in his hands as well."

Li You did not attack reluctantly at this time, but threw the ball to the upper left of the basket after pressing his shoulder to break through!

Receiving the ball in the card position, jumping into the inside, carrying the defense, and completing the goal, Ewing played efficiently, and Li You's assists rose again...

"Lee, well done, that's all!"

In the second half of the second quarter, the two sides regained their main lineups, and at 36:30, the Knicks still led by 6 points.

With the ball handed over in the first round, Lee realized that the old-school point guard was going to play support tonight.

Ewing was particularly efficient on 3-of-4 shooting, 2-of-2 from the free-throw line-up, and had 8 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, and all five of the Knicks' starters scored.

Commentator John Andaris, although he felt that the attack was too conservative, but the victory was the most important thing, also touted:

Li You suddenly sped up the pace of dribbling, sliding Van Axel unprepared, and wanted to continue the pursuit, but he was mixed with garlic under his feet and suddenly slipped in the center circle.

After returning from injury, he cut 30+10, and at the post-game press conference, Ewing was blown up by the media in New York again, and Jeff Van Gundy was full of a sense of achievement, but the New York Post always sang the opposite:

As it turns out, in hand-to-hand combat, the Knicks are not that dominant...

Coming to the top of the arc to protect the ball sideways, and without Lee Yobi's tactical gestures, Ewing and Oakley immediately made a cross-cover in the paint area.

Even "Big Mom" could see that Cedric was no longer good, and the Suns were fighting to the death.

Jeff Van Gundy's game plan is certainly fine, the Suns themselves will make mistakes, and Jason Kidd's penetrating passing is naturally accompanied by high turnovers.

"I didn't expect the Heat to also play a winning streak and overtake the Pistons!"

'Keep defending like this, the opponent will make mistakes first, and we have to take our chances.'

“defense! defense! defense! ”

Kidd did not want to repair relations at all, and publicly shouted in the media:

"Tonight Coach Danny Ainge ruled out a two-point guard lineup, Kevin Johnson and Jason Kidd partnered in the backcourt, and maybe the Suns will have to change the old and the new."

At the end of the half, at 49:52, the Knicks took a three-point lead.

At 72:84, the Knicks suffered another heavy loss to the SuperSonics.

The Lakers could only desperately retreat, and Larry Johnson continued to accelerate along the left sideline, and the fast break was extremely aggressive!

Li You raised his left arm expressionlessly, raised three fingers, and paced back from Van Exel.

5-of-9, 1-of-3 from beyond the three-point line, 4-of-5 from the free-throw line, 15 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists, 3 steals and 2 turnovers.

At the end of the third quarter, 64:74, a 10-point difference, is still within the range of chase!

Today's pack x has been completed!

Alan Houston scored four points on 2-of-4 shooting in the first quarter, while Lee Yoo was 2-of-3 for four points, one rebound and two assists.

“...”

"Forget it, I just exchanged phone numbers with Kidd, and he doesn't seem to be dead yet! Gotta give him a chance. ”

The Knicks attacked, Lee Woo quickly dribbled the ball across the half court with his right hand, and Kidd took the initiative to change the defense, but Charles Oakley blocked and dismantled on the wing, and the man was gone...

Lee quickly returned to the defense and high-fived Spike Lee, who was cheering on the sidelines.

Kevin Johnson led the defense, and as he approached the halfway line, Lee Woo tossed the ball to Oakley at the top of the arc, who received the ball and immediately crossed it to Larry Johnson on the left wing.

People of the same type can always talk, and the two also exchanged phone numbers, and Kidd is the first surface brother Li You made in the league...

Jeff Van Gundy's face froze, he almost broke the defense, and he still has an opinion on winning?

Starks was also not very effective when he came off the bench tonight, which made it necessary for the main players to play after three minutes of play.

The highly anticipated game, but Jeff Van Gundy was disappointed, hitting a hard bone, Ewing wilted...

Jeff Van Gundy also stood up at this time, followed by a punch that was forceful, and at the same time kept shouting:

Perhaps because of the miserable loss in the last game, Jeff Van Gundy adjusted his tactics again and no longer required Ewing to beat Ewing's hand in every round...

The Suns are all tool men on the inside, and Cedric has become the team's main attacker, but every time Kidd tries to lead the easy scorer, Lee Woo can always predict the opponent's operation in advance.

“?”

During the intermission, Larry Johnson also noticed that the fans were not in a good mood, and whispered two sentences:

For fans in New York, if the first few games were Dove chocolate, tonight's game will be Dove's flavor.

Looking at Kidd in surprise, Li You found that the other party was the same as no one, and even raised his hand to his teammates apologetically...

Jason Kidd, Jimmy Jackson, and Jamal Mashburn combined punches and kicks, and the fighting in the locker room is considered a big taboo.

The management of the Mavericks didn't act as a licking dog, and after Kidd shouted, they simply sent the three away, and the team changed blood!

On the live mSG commentary booth, commentator Marf Albert gave a brief overview of the changes to the starting lineup after the Suns trade.

"This is my team..."

Some of the players arrived at Madison Square Garden and the New York Arch Flame Youngsters were absolutely indispensable...

“...”

“defense! defense! defense! ”

Terry Cummings, forward on the bench, also broke out, Sam Perkins, Nate McMillan, and Craig Elou played a good defense with their size advantage.

The retreating Lakers instantly contracted their defense, and Li You, who rushed up in three steps, grabbed the ball with one hand with his left hand, faked a real pass, deceived Van Exel, who was chasing the defense, and passed the ball out of the gap in the three.

Starks saw that entertainment news early in the morning, and as the Grammys approached, the attention of the nominated singers exploded...

It was also a big difference from the previous quick handling of the ball, but in the fourth quarter, Li You still only had one turnover.

The Suns made an early rotation, while on the Knicks' side, Jeff Van Gundy did not make a substitution, and Ewing did not rest until 20 seconds left in the first quarter.

"Bang... Swish! "Two-point hollow into the net!

The basketball came out of his hand, and he was slapped in the face by Ewing under the basket!

"Shh

The Dallas Mavericks' "3Js" were jealous of Donnie Breston and used this incident as a trigger for the young trio to finally disintegrate before this year's All-Star break.

Entering the official timeout, Madison Square Garden rang out with another boo.

"The ball is in! Maybe Alan Houston needs to change his defensive style. ”

"Huh!" Three-point shot hollow into the net!

After receiving the ball, Lee Woo accelerated with all his might along the left sideline.

Hearing Li You's shout, Larry Johnson in the bottom right corner subconsciously defended Cedric on his side, and in the next second, Cedric first pretended to move to the upper line, and then suddenly ran back and quickly slipped the bottom line.

Van Axel only felt that the fans at the scene were having fun, and after he shook down, he was ignored by Li You and completely angry.

Although there were no mistakes and the Knicks' offense was well organized, scoring and playing, fans felt that the game looked different.

Ewing, who returned from injury, played 40 minutes, 13-of-17, 5-of-7 free throws, and scored 31 points, 13 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block and 2 turnovers!

Charles Oakley didn't care who the opponent was, and when he heard the words of "Big Mom", he joked:

This old stalk immediately set Kidd's heart on fire.
