NBA: No. 1 Forward

Chapter 171: As long as you don't give up, you can still reach the top

At the end of the game, 109:86, the Knicks beat the Nets by a big score. This is also the third victory over the Nets this season.

At the end of the game, Yi Jianlian scored a double-double with 34 points and 10 rebounds.

But Yi Jianlian was not particularly happy about his high score, and Lian Dao also knew the reason. After the Nets lost to the Knicks, they had already lost 11 consecutive games, second only to the 18 consecutive losses at the beginning of the season.

Lian Dao didn't know what to say at this time. After the game, Lian Dao patted Yi Jianlian on the shoulder and gave him a hug.

"Don't worry too much about failure, it's not your fault, you've tried your best!" Lian Dao struggled for a while, and said this sentence comfortingly.

Yi Jianlian nodded.

For the Knicks, this game should be quite perfect.

But for the domestic audience, they were a little disappointed. This is not to say that they were disappointed with the performance of Lian Dao and Yi Jianlian, but that the audience was expecting a very fierce battle, and the scores of the two teams were evenly matched. You chased after each other and kept fighting until the fourth quarter without really deciding the winner. It was a very anxious game between each other.

Then, at the last moment, Yi Jianlian or Lian Dao each represented their own team and finished the game with a lore.

This is the duel in the hearts of the audience, but the matchup time between Yi Jianlian and Lian Dao in this game is actually not too long. Judging from the time of the two people's matchup, the total time of the whole game is only about one quarter time.

The Knicks established a big lead in the first half. It can be said that the victory of this game was established in the first half, and Lian Dao did not play in the second half.

Although the fans were a bit disappointed, the game was still very exciting in the limited time matchup.

Lian Dao naturally needless to say, as for Yi Jianlian.

The Nets lost, but the United Arab Emirates did not lose.

During the handshake ceremony after the game, the two also hugged again.

"Will we have dinner together later?"

After hugging, Yi Jianlian said to Lian Dao.

The previous game with the Nets was back-to-back, and neither of them had time to have a meal together.

This time the Knicks and the Nets will not have a game tomorrow, and the Knicks are also flying tomorrow.

The two of them ate Chinese food, although it was not very authentic, New Jersey is too small, and there are not many Chinese people, so Chinese restaurants are relatively rare, and it is not bad to find one.

When Yi Jianlian and Lian Dao had dinner, they also talked a lot. Yi Jianlian’s personality has changed a lot since he first joined the league. Of course, there are two people who are teammates in the Asian Championships, and they are both Chinese, so there is no talk. The cause of unfamiliarity.

However, Yi Jianlian's personality is indeed changing, which can be seen from the call of pick-and-rolls and mutual cover exchanges with teammates on the field.

Yi Jianlian also admires and admires Lian Dao very much. He admires and envies Lian Dao who can chat with anyone. He can see the jokes and fights between Lian Dao and his teammates on the Knicks bench. He sees all the Knicks. The player's trust in Lian Dao, that kind of trust he has never encountered in the Bucks and Nets, he only felt it in China.

Similarly, he also admires this compatriot who is younger than himself. He can make waves and play dazzling records when he first entered the league. Even some retired superstars will shake their heads and sigh when they mention Lian Dao: There is no other rookie.

After dinner, when the two parted, Lian Dao hesitated for a while, but he still suggested to Yi Jianlian to practice three more points.

Lian Dao did not deliberately emphasize, after all, everyone has their own way to go.

The reason for emphasizing the three-pointer is because Yi Jianlian has been injured, and he has to admit that the physical strength of the yellow race is not as good as that of the black man. If he wants to gain a foothold in the NBA, he will not have an advantage physically, but the shooting touch of the yellow race Very good, as long as Yi Jianlian can develop a stable three-pointer from the outside, then the NBA will definitely be very popular in the future.

Because this is the trend of the future, even the center must have an excellent three-point shooting ability, otherwise you can only become a blue-collar player.

Yi Jianlian nodded. Although he accepted Lian Dao's suggestion, he didn't take it seriously.

This is also very normal. It is only the end of 2009, and the league has not set off a wave of three-pointers. Although Lian Dao often uses three-pointers in the regular season and has also broken the record for three-pointers, many people, including some head coaches, still think that The three-pointer is just an unstable means of chasing points in some games, and it cannot become a conventional weapon.

Once in the playoffs, after the intensity of the game increases, the three-point shooting rate will naturally drop, and the closer to the basket, the higher the shooting rate will naturally be, and the scoring will be more stable.

No one in the league thinks a bunch of 3-point shooters are going to win a championship right now.

Yes, now no one thought that the humble baby-faced rookie of the Warriors would use three-pointers to change the pattern of the entire league, so that three-pointers later became a regular scoring method.

And that harmless baby face has led the Warriors to four championships in eight years, and he has won all the major honors in the NBA.

He also proved that one person, one city, as long as you don't give up, you can still reach the top.

…

After defeating the Nets, the Knicks fixed their December record at 12 wins and 3 losses. It can be said that this record is very good. The Knicks management did not expect the team to hand in such an excellent job in December. answer sheet.

However, the Knicks are not the one with the most wins in the East, because the Cavaliers have an even more terrifying record of 14 wins and 3 losses.

They had two more games than the Knicks in December. In 17 games, the Cavaliers led by James won 14 games. It can be said that the Cavaliers who have completed the lineup are very scary in December.

James also won by 1 vote against Lian Dao, and was elected as the best player of the month in December. James averaged 28.6 points, 7.4 rebounds and 7.6 assists per game in December.

Lian Dao averaged 27.6 points, 6.4 rebounds and 11.2 assists per game in December.

In fact, Lian Dao's data is more comprehensive, but because of the two extra wins, James won the Eastern Conference Player of the Month in December.

Kobe Bryant won the Western Conference Player of the Month in December with 31.3 points, 6.1 rebounds and 5.0 assists.

Like the Knicks, the Lakers also had 15 games in December. The Lakers also had the same record of 12 wins and 3 losses. In the last five games of the Lakers in December, Kobe scored 35+ consecutively. The Lakers only won 3 victories in five games, two of which were lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers led by James in the Christmas game, and the other lost to the Phoenix Suns led by Nash.

Needless to say, the Cleveland Cavaliers, this season's Phoenix Suns is simply a nightmare for team teams, because this season's Suns play slowly and the average age team has almost never lost. Most of the games they lose are those who are older than them. A youth guard team that can still run.

Lian Dao won the best rookie of the month in the Eastern Conference in December, which is basically a certainty. If the Cavaliers had two more wins than the Knicks in December, Lian Dao might very well become NBA history The first rookie to win Player of the Month twice in his rookie season.

Western Conference Rookie of the Year is Tyreke Evans.

Tyreke Evans is the most stable rookie in this class except for Lian Dao. His December data is also very impressive, with 22.1 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.1 assists.

Tyreke Evans is very talented, but in history it was only a flash in the pan in his rookie season. Among them, there are reasons why the Kings management and the head coach did not know how to use them well, and there are also reasons for Tyreke Evans himself. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

The Kings dropped Tyreke Evans' instruction booklet.

Tyreke Evans is 1.98 meters tall, but has a 2.11-meter wingspan, and his athletic ability is very good.

This allows him to be easily qualified for the first and second positions.

In addition, Evans' ball quotient is also extraordinary. He can correctly choose the right scoring and passing timing.

But due to weight and height, Evans is only suitable for swinging on the first and second positions, and his body is not suitable for the third position.

During his rookie period, Kevin Martin served as the team's shooting guard for a long time. Therefore, Evans was more often arranged by the team as the starting point guard.
