At 4 minutes and 50 seconds in the first quarter, Ji Guosha seized an opportunity, Iverson this offensive end and Landry, a mythical bird traded from the Rockets, blocked and dismantled, and after breaking through with the help of cover, Ji Guosha changed defense Iverson. In the past, Iverson would definitely hit the inside line like a bolt of lightning in an instant, and complete the layup before Ji Guosha chased the block. But now, Iverson is only a few tenths of a second slower, and while he still looks fast to the naked eye, at this level of the NBA, the result could be completely different.
Ji Guoyi turned around quickly, chased Iverson with his speed in the third position, and a big hand printed it fiercely at the moment when the basketball was about to touch the rebound, and with a "snap", the basketball was directly slapped on the rebound by Ji Guoyi and bounced away.
Matt. Barnes followed up to get the basketball and quickly passed it to Dragic, who had just come on the court, the Slovenian was not slow, receiving a pass to get rid of the opponent in disguise, the Knicks couldn't get back to defense, Dragic made a layup, and relied on counterattacks to get his first two points of the day.
D'Antoni quickly replaced Maddy, and Tracy had four points and three assists in the first quarter, and D'Antoni completely used him as a pseudo-point guard. Although there is still a gap with Nash, if Maddy plays point guard, his playmaking ability can also rank in the top 10 among active point guards. Maddy's flaw is that he is not top-notch in ball control, and his height makes him too high on the dribble and prone to being interrupted. Throughout NBA history. The point guards who are more than two meters tall are also Magic and Penny. Maddie if he plays point guard. It's still a little worse than these two, and he's better suited to the number two position.
After Maddy went off, D'Antoni was replaced by the Knicks, a rookie selected by the Knicks this year, Danilo. Gallinari, one of the best templates is Tekoglu's White European No. 3 position.
Gallinari is known as Italy's most talented player, but he hasn't been so much appreciated this season under D'Antoni, and although he can get some playing time, he will be replaced at a fixed time, regardless of whether his appearance is good or not. The mustache completely treats him as a regular rotation player at the No. 3 position, and the purpose of playing is to give the main players time to rest.
The elder Dunleavy replaced Jordan Jr. as a center, and the Knicks replaced Gallinari with a new center. As soon as Elson's guy came on the field, Ji Guoyi was suddenly startled and shouted: "Garnett? "That's right, this guy named Elson is the same as Garnett in terms of body shape and appearance, if he wears a little makeup. It can be completely reached to the point of being fake.
"Hey, are you sure it's okay with Garnett?" Ji Guoyan looked at Elson for a long time. How do you look like Garnett, I doubt that the wolf king's father or mother has an illegitimate child outside, otherwise how can it be so similar?
"You're not the first person to ask, but I don't have anything to do with that guy." When Elson heard this, his mood became very bad, but Ji Guoyan looked at it like this, and seemed to feel more like Garnett.
Although this fake wolf king looks alike, he doesn't look like it at all in terms of strength, Ji Guoshi misplaced the single, and easily broke through the opponent in disguise, and scored with both hands under the basket.
"It's really fake, although Garnett's bastard is 33 years old, it's not so easy to break through, this guy looks about the same age as Garnett, but he acts like a 40-year-old man." After Ji Guozhi scored, there was a burst of refreshment for no reason, although the person was fake, but the pleasure he got after beating the opponent was not much different, it was really cool!
Poor Elson didn't know that Ji Guosha had already taken him for Garnett, fortunately, the old Dunleavy replaced the twin brothers after a minute, but in just one minute, Ji Guozhi broke through twice, and scored 9 points in the first quarter.
If the main teams of the two teams are facing each other, the Knicks are only slightly inferior with their two expired superstars, but when it comes to the bench engagement period, the Knicks are beginning to be unable to withstand it. Most of their substitutes this season are added to various trades, and the players who can generally be regarded as additives are of course not too strong, most of them are garbage contracts, and the original team does not want goods.
But Carl. Landry and Nate. Robinson and these two guys are very eye-catching, although these two are strong in attack and weak in defense, but it is good to score in the bench period, and D'Antoni does not require them to have much defensive ability.
Dunleavy Sr. spotted Jordan Jr. facing Landry and Nate. Robinson didn't work well and immediately replaced him with Jeffries, who was traded with Crawford, and the Clippers now have two players on the court who were still in the Knicks camp last season.
Crawford has a strong desire to attack today, and when he returns to his old club, most of the players want to break out, and Crawford is certainly no exception. Even Jeffries came off the bench in the second half of the first quarter and threw in two mid-range shots that exceeded Dunleavy Sr.'s expectations.
D'Antoni now sees Jeffries in his eyes, which shows how short the Knicks are on the inside. The reason why the fake fall expert was able to throw in two mid-range shots is inseparable from the Knicks' super bad interior defense, New York's defense can no longer be described as bad, and the four words are not enough to express themselves.
In the last three minutes of the first quarter, the Knicks relied only on Nate. Robinson and Landry scored a few points, but the Clippers blossomed across the board, and Dragic did a good job of managing the team, being able to allocate basketball reasonably in the bench period, and he learned a lot from Billups this season, which is a significant improvement from the beginning of the season.
When the two brothers went off the court, the Clippers led by three points, and by the end of the first quarter, the Clippers had a seven-point lead at 34:27. If it weren't for Nate Robinson and Landry combined for eight points, the Knicks would have been more than 10 points behind.
ESPN streamed the game live today, Jeff. Van Gundy watched the first quarter's replay, in which Nate Gundy watched the replay. Robinson had a brilliant counter-attack, and the former bald coach of the Rockets praised it: "Nate who played for the American football team in college. Robinson, the official height is 175cm, but in fact he is less than 170cm, look at him like a calf, maybe continue to play American football, his development will be better. ”
Ewing came to ESPN today as a guest, and the official gorilla also said: "He's a dynamic power pack, not tall but wild, he's athletic and competitive in the league, but height is the most important option in the sport, if he can be 10cm taller, I don't think he'll be worse than Iverson."
In the second quarter, Maddy returned to the court after the opening, and during this time the Knicks were led by Maddie and Nate. Robinson played in the backcourt, but the effect was amazing! Potato Jr. and Maddie can also play when Iverson is on the floor, and even Nate is on the floor. Robinson's impact is stronger because he is younger, stronger, and faster.
Dunleavy Sr. is not worried about this, sitting firmly on the sidelines, although the Knicks play well on the offensive end, but the Clippers play well on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, it is difficult for the Knicks to break through their defense and score, but it is not difficult for them to break through the Knicks' defense. Dunleavy Sr. knew that his team had such an advantage, and as long as they seized the time period when the Knicks' hand was down to make a fatal blow, they couldn't lose this game.
The two brothers were not substituted until 6:55 in the second quarter, and the score was 44:36, giving the Clippers an eight-point lead.
The Clippers are now sitting at the top of the league, and since Dunleavy Sr. decided to reduce the two brothers' playing time at the end of the season, he won't change that decision for any reason. Even if the situation in a certain game is unfavorable, the elder Dunleavy resolutely controls the playing time of the two within 36 minutes, and it is the same today.
Ji Guoqiu naturally has no opinion, but Ji Guoqiu is still worried about his count, four or five minutes less playing time, the score will be one or two points less, and the rebound will be almost one less.
"I don't feel like I'm tired at all, it's no problem to play for 40 minutes, if I can't brush up on more points, how are we going to suppress that Durant guy in the future? And how to surpass the series of records that James once set? Ji Guoyi muttered secretly in his heart, this is basically what he cares about.
"I don't think it's anything, the championship ring is more important than those number jù, our number jù is not bad, the number of rings is the most important thing. If you think about it, James hasn't won a championship yet, and we've actually surpassed him. "Ji Guoqiu doesn't think that the number of jù is the most important, and the ring is the primary basis for measuring a player's ranking in the Hall of Fame. With their count, as long as the number of rings exceeds 3, it is not a problem for the Hall of Fame to be in the top 20; If you have more than 6 rings, you will be in the top 5 for retirement in the future.
Ji Guoyi wanted to find the fake wolf king to beat him up again after he came on the field, but he hadn't enjoyed it just now. It's a pity that Elson's playing time is limited, and when he comes up to deal with a few minutes, D'Antoni uses Harrington and Gallinari to partner on the inside, and the Knicks lineup on the court: Iverson, Quentin. Richardson, Wilson. Chandler, Gallinari, Harrington.
The Knicks' lineup is still offense-first, defense has never been something D'Antoni's team has to worry about, offense instead of defense, smooth and fast offensive and defensive transitions are what the mustache is pursuing, and his players must go crazy with mercury offense to disrupt the opponent's rhythm to achieve the purpose of defense.
The Clippers were a little caught off guard at first when they encountered this five-man all-round three-point shooting formation, and the Knicks didn't know what the waves were throwing, and as long as they had the opportunity, no matter who they were, they would not hesitate to shoot. Of course, this is what D'Antoni explained, in the eyes of the mustache, it's okay if you can't shoot, but if you don't shoot if you have the chance, then don't think about playing again.
Harrington and Richardson each threw in a three-pointer, but the Clippers only relied on Ji Guoqiu to score a goal inside, and the difference between the two teams quickly narrowed from the original 8 points to 4 points.
Ji Guo was shocked: "Blind chicken. Batou is actually hanging like this? (A pie-in-the-sky event, cool phones are waiting for you!)
