NBA: No. 1 Forward

Chapter 168: UAE in hot condition

Open 09 Superstars.

The bearded beard who doesn't want to be the third brother (James Harden): My eldest brother is not in a good mood recently, what should I do?

Harden sent a message to the group.

After a while, there was a reply, it was Lian Dao.

New York's No. 1 Handsome (Lian Dao): Simple, give him a glass of Scarlett's bath water.

The bearded beard who doesn't want to be the third brother (James Harden): ? ? ?

I'm not a schoolboy (Steph Curry): Scarlett I know, but what does bathwater mean?

Lian Dao suddenly rang, and Durant hadn't posted the message "Scarlett, I want to drink your bath water" on social media.

This happened in 2011, it's 2009, so it hasn't happened yet.

New York's No. 1 coach (Lian Dao): Hey, I'm talking nonsense, don't take it seriously, elementary school student, I heard that you played 10 minutes in the last game, and scored 0 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 turnover and 3 fouls [Slant Eye] .

In order to divert his attention, Lian Dao took the Jinzhou elementary school students under the knife.

I'm not a schoolboy (Steph Curry): I repeat, don't call me a schoolboy, don't call me, don't call me…

Beard who doesn't want to be the third brother (James Harden): Okay, schoolboy.

New York's First Handsome (Lian Dao): Okay, elementary school student.

Timberwolves "coach" (DeMar DeRozan): Okay, elementary school kid.

Washington State's No. 1 Lover (Klay Thompson): Okay, elementary school.

…

I'm not a schoolboy (Steph Curry): [vomits blood]

Your friend "I'm Not a Schoolboy (Steph Curry is offline.

All the players got off the plane sleepily, and the group of them also came to New Jersey, back to back really suffered.

New Jersey is the fourth smallest state in the United States, but it is the most densely populated state in the United States.

New Jersey is very close to New York, and its economy is also radiated by New York's economy. Its GDP ranks seventh in the United States, which is quite remarkable.

But this does not mean that the ball market in New Jersey is huge. The Continental Arena, home of the Nets, is located in East Rutherford, New Jersey, a small town. Although the operating costs are relatively low, the commercial benefits are not satisfactory.

The attendance rate has been less than 60% since Carter left.

Especially this season, the New Jersey Nets currently have a record of 2 wins and 29 losses, ranking last in the league.

Due to the team's season record, many people are even more reluctant to enter the Continental Arena to watch the game.

In May 2010, after Russian businessman Prokhorov officially acquired the Nets for $200 million, he couldn't stand the New Jersey ball market anymore.

So after the end of the 2011-12 season, the team officially moved to Brooklyn, New York.

In fact, Brooklyn is very close to New Jersey, but the economic benefits brought by Brooklyn are not comparable to New Jersey.

In New Jersey, everyone from the Knicks also came to the Continental Arena.

There is still a game in the evening, and now I need a simple training to find my status. ,

…

Evening, 7:30.

In the Continental Airlines Arena, the players on both sides have completed the pre-match warm-up and are preparing for the entrance ceremony.

Lian Dao glanced at the auditorium, huh? Kind of weird.

The attendance rate of the Nets in today's game is quite high. It was less than 60% before, but now it seems to be basically 70%.

Immediately, Lian Dao understood that 30% of the audience was wearing the No. 1 jersey of Lian Dao Knicks, and they came for the Knicks game.

Because the Knicks' home game tickets are hard to come by, some viewers who have time and dollars will buy Knicks away game tickets.

Then fly to watch the game!

That is a very small number after all, but this time is different!

New Jersey is too close to New York, and it doesn't take too long by car, so many fans also came from New York to watch the Knicks' away game.

The scene entered the opening ceremony, and the starters of both sides were released one after another.

The starting lineup for the Knicks: Jrue Holiday, Wilson Chandler, Lian Dao, Millsap, David Lee.

Since Chris Duhon was injured in the game against the Spurs, the doctor identified it as a moderate ankle sprain and needed to miss the game for about two weeks. Therefore, Zhu Holiday was also mentioned as the starting position. In the last game against the Pistons At that time, Holiday performed very well.

So during Chris Duhon's injury, D'Antoni also confirmed the position of Zhu Holiday's starting point guard.

The cheers erupted from the audience when they entered the arena, almost making Lian Dao think it was a home game.

It's fun to play away games as if they were home games!

Nets side: Devin Harris, Courtney Lee, Trenton Hassel, Yi Jianlian, Brook Lopez.

Their starting small forward Chris Douglas-Roberts is currently on the injured list, so the Nets coach Kiki Vandewegge also made Trenton Hassel the starting small forward in this game.

Since Carter left, the Nets have officially entered a state of reconstruction this season, so Kiki Vandeweghe also fired two coaches in a row, and then as the general manager, he went into battle in person.

It sucks, what tactics do you need?

Isn't it just to put on the starting players and then play casually, whoever plays well will go up and whoever doesn't play well will go down.

You mean tactical arrangements? Do you still need tactical arrangements for bad performance?

Therefore, it is not surprising that the Nets' current record is 2 wins and 29 losses.

The game started quickly, and the Knicks failed another jump ball.

The Bucks had the ball. After Brook Lopez stopped in the low post, he received a pass from his teammate and made a mid-range shot.

Big Lopez's mid-range shooting is very stable, but his movement speed is slow, and this guy's sense of rebounding is not good, so don't look at his height of 2.13 meters, in fact, the protection of rebounds is not as good as that of David Li Qiang. A little out of proportion to his height.

Lian Dao easily broke through Trenton Hassel's defense, and then assisted Holiday, who cut inside, to score a layup after reaching the basket.

But then Yi Jian connected to Trenton Hassell's pass, and with the help of Brook Lopez's pick-and-roll, he made a decisive mid-range shot.

"brush!"

A very smooth goal.

Yi Jianlian's condition after his comeback is indeed getting better and better. In this game, his shooting is very confident and his shooting percentage is also very high.

After more than 7 minutes in the first quarter, the score on the field was 18:15, with the Knicks leading.

The reason why the Nets can bite the score is definitely the key to Yi Jianlian. He made four of four mid-range shots and scored 8 points in 7 minutes, accounting for more than half of the Nets' points.

The Knicks scored evenly. Lian Dao made two three-pointers in 7 minutes, and the rest were assists for his teammates.

But at this time, D'Antoni called a timeout. He replaced Danilo Gallinari, replaced Millsap, and Lian Dao as the fourth position.

The reason why Millsap was replaced was because this guy was not stable with the ball, and his speed was also at a disadvantage in the third position, so it was appropriate to put Danilo Gallinari in the third position, and Lian Dao was in the fourth position. The number position is to limit the fiery Yi Jianlian on the opposite side.

After returning from the timeout, Lian Dao assisted Danilo Gallinari to hit a three-pointer from the outside.

Then, on the Nets side, Devin Harris saw that Yi Jianlian had no chance, so he made a mid-range shot and shot out of the frame.

David Lee got the rebound one step ahead of Lopez, and then passed it to Lian Dao. Lian Dao stopped outside the three-point line and passed Yi Jianlian's defense, and then hit a three-point jumper.

24:15.

The Knicks have opened the point difference to 9 points!

However, after receiving the ball, Lopez made a mid-range hit and gave the Nets a blood in time.

Immediately after Lian Dao broke through with the ball, Yi Jianlian did not keep up with Lian Dao's footsteps. Even a shooting guard couldn't keep up with Lian Dao's fastest first step, let alone a power forward like Yi Jianlian. Lian Dao, who was behind, made a dunk directly across from Lopez who was defending.

Big Lopez was also hit by Lian Dao's strong buckle and sat on the floor.

Here, Yi Jianlian got the chance to catch the ball through his teammate's pick-and-roll, catch the ball, adjust his posture, and shoot. Lian Dao was a step slower when he made up the defense and could only watch the shot.

"brush!"

Five out of five shots!

At this time, Yi Jianlian seemed to have entered his own state.

For the Knicks, after Holiday missed a mid-range shot, Lian Dao took the offensive rebound off Lopez's head by virtue of his height, and then directly scored a layup.

Here, Lian Dao also stepped up his defense against Yi Jianlian.

Going around the front to defend ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Going around the pick-and-roll, constantly interfering with Yi Jianlian's receiving route.

Lian Dao is like Yi Jianlian's shadow, never leaving him, which makes Yi Jianlian very uncomfortable playing.

Yi Jianlian: As for it? Brother, we are compatriots, teammates who have fought together in the Asian Championships!

Lian Dao: [Cannot hear], [Cannot hear]!

It is impossible for Lian Dao to release water. It doesn't matter what kind of court he belongs to, but as long as he stands on the court, no matter who the opponent is, he will go all out.

It's true for Wade, it's true for James, and it's true for Kobe!

On the basketball court, the best way to respect your opponent is to go all out!
