"2+1!"

After landing, Cousins ??hammered Griffin's chest, roaring continuously, and the entire Staples fell silent instantly. They didn't expect Cousins ??who flew up to be so cruel.

After Griffin was helped up by his teammates, he clutched his chest in pain.

The head coach of the Clippers, Vinny Del Negro, hurriedly called a timeout. He didn't want his precious player to be injured again after only a few games.

"You're a pretty rookie, that's how you come here, talk with the ball, so that no one dares to be arrogant on you!" Lian Dao admired Cousins' dunk very much.

"Boss, can you cancel the 1V1? I think only you can be arrogant on my head now!" Cousins ????smiled, and then made an inch of it.

"Are you sure, DeMarcus!" Lian Dao squinted at Cousins, licked his lips, and revealed a playful smile.

"Uh, boss, just pretend I didn't say anything, you just misheard, yes, that's an illusion!" DeMarcus turned and walked towards the bench as he spoke.

Cousins ??knew that when Lian Dao called him "DeMarcus", he was dissatisfied with him, or wanted to educate him, so Cousins, who was frightened, hurriedly turned around and temporarily avoided the edge.

"Who said that this stupid guy has a simple and honest nature, isn't he also able to turn his head?" After Lian Dao grumbled, he also walked to the bench.

After that, the Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro put Griffin on the bench. He didn't want to hurt Griffin because of an ordinary regular season, especially the opposite No. 15 The big man (Cousins' jersey number) was really brutal when he got angry.

Even though Griffin has repeatedly stated that he is fine, Vinny Del Negro still disagrees.

Without Griffin, Eric Gordon on the outside was completely strangled by Tony Allen, and the Clippers' offense was completely paralyzed. In the end, with the outstanding performance of Stoudemire and Millsap , The Knicks won the game 126:116.

The Clippers originally thought that facing the exhausted Knicks they could end the Knicks' winning streak and end their own losing streak. Unexpectedly, although Lian Dao doesn't feel good, the Knicks have too much firepower. In addition to Stoudemire, one of the two guns, and David Lee who came off the bench, Millsap also continued to stand up and score. The Clippers star was almost injured.

Stoudemire played the best in this game, scoring 37 points and 12 rebounds. In addition, Millsap, although he came off the bench, hit 6 three-pointers and scored 29 points. 5 rebounds, David Lee and Holiday also performed well, scoring 14 points, 11 rebounds and 10 points and 6 assists respectively.

Lian Dao played mediocre in this game, only scoring 20 points, 3 rebounds and 19 assists.

Griffin scored 29 points and 13 rebounds. This game did let many people see the potential of the White Warcraft. Although the Clippers fans are still a little worried about the lack of stud rice last season, but this season the White Warcraft His performance gave them a lot of psychological comfort.

Of course, although Griffin performed well, no one thought he could compete with Lian Dao. Although White Warcraft performed well, it was far from reaching an average of 30+ per game, let alone 40+ per game in the playoffs. , The Clippers have a record of 1 win and 12 losses this season, oh no, it is now 1 win and 13 losses, and they have just mentioned a 9-game losing streak.

The Clippers' team record also made many people question Griffin's performance in leading the team, and many people even sprayed him as a data brush. In fact, in the past, fans were unlikely to make too many demands on rookies, as long as the data is good and there is potential.

But who made Lian Dao turn out last season, and led the Knicks to the Eastern Conference finals in his rookie season. Not only the statistics are perfect, but the team performance is also perfect.

Therefore, as the second place in the same ranking, Griffin will be compared with Lian Dao by many people.

After the Knicks defeated the Los Angeles Clippers, they finally ended their four-game streak and two back-to-back suffering trips.

Back in New York, they also have two days of precious rest time, all players can take advantage of these two days to take a good breath, and the next game they will play at home against the Charlotte Bobcats led by Larry Brown.

And the opponents of the two consecutive games are the Bobcats, or back-to-back, the first matchup is in New York, and the second is in Charlotte, but the only advantage is that both sides are back-to-back.

However, before the game, the league also announced the "Player of the Week" for this week. The "Player of the Week" last week was Lian Dao. best player".

On November 14 last week, Lian Dao once again defeated Derrick Rose with 31.2 points and 8.9 assists and was elected as the "Player of the Week".

But this time, as the "Player of the Week" on November 21, Lian Dao still relied on 42.5 points, 7.5 rebounds and 12 assists, and was elected "Player of the Week" for three consecutive weeks without any suspense.

As long as Lian Dao's performance does not fall off a cliff in the last five games of the Knicks this month, then basically Lian Dao's winning the player of the month in November is a certainty.

Of course, this is not what shocked the media the most. What surprised the media the most is that Lian Dao’s shooting percentage so far has reached an astonishing 56.2%, 45% from three-pointers, and 95% from free throws. .

Lian Dao currently ranks first in the league in terms of plus-minus for all players.

Moreover, Lian Dao ranked first in the scoring list with an average of 36 points per game. As Du Xiaoshuai, the current scoring champion, he did not know how many keyboards he broke behind his back, but he found himself getting more and more difficult on the court. Scoring a high score is not because the opponent has become stronger, nor is it that one's own ability has deteriorated.

But Westbrook has grown up, he is no longer led by his big brother like before, he and he have learned to do a lot of offenses by themselves, sometimes he wants the ball by himself, and this one-headed turtle dare not pass it to him ball.

Not only that, but his third brother James Harden has also grown up this season, and he is also waiting for food on the bench.

The growth of Westbrook and Kaeden is bound to take away Durant's shots. If he can't improve his shooting percentage, there will definitely be a drop in scoring.

Durant has averaged 28 points per game so far, and he still has a long way to go to catch up with Lian Dao, unless he can often explode in the next game, Westbrook is willing to cooperate, or Lian Dao's The scoring continues to decline, otherwise Lian Dao is likely to be the scoring champion this season.

At the same time, Durant was also very curious, why did Liantao cooperate with the All-Star Stoudemire, but the score did not drop much?

In fact ~www.mtlnovel.com~ This is not only Durant's curiosity, but media reporters are also very curious.

Many people thought that after Stoudemire came, at least his stats would be divided, but in the end it was found that not only was there no division, but on the contrary, the personal stats of Lian Dao, Stoudemire and Millsap all improved somewhat. .

Although Gallinari's statistics have declined, it is not obvious. David Lee's statistics can basically be the same as last season. pressure on the defensive end.

Of course, if someone improves, someone will weaken, such as Tony Allen, such as Danny Green, such as Holiday, such as Rasheed Wallace and Wilson Chandler...

The regular season is still going on in an orderly manner. The Knicks have the last two back-to-back games left in the following games. In addition to the game against the Bobcats, there is another back-to-back game against the Detroit Pistons on November 28.

6 back-to-back games in November, plus a back-to-back game in October, less than one and a half months into the season, the Knicks will play 7 back-to-back games. The Knicks were able to maintain their winning streak in such a difficult schedule.

Not only is the best of the month trophy for Lian Dao, but I believe that many people will greatly improve the Knicks' ability to win the championship.

After all, even the Heat's Big Three, known as the "NBA Finale", have a current record of only 8 wins and 5 losses!

Of course, if they can remain undefeated in November, they will also be able to break the Knicks' strongest winning streak record of 18 consecutive victories and increase the team's winning streak to 19 times.
