Now the problem with the Knicks is that they can't keep up with the pace of the Lakers. And Kuzma still maintains his high energy and efficiency. In this case, if your team does not have an effective suppression of the Lakers, then the game may be coming to an end.

In the following game, Chen let several main players on the field go to rest. The third quarter ended at 83:91. Some of the fans in the stadium began to leave the field during the quarter. They feel like they're basically out of play.

Maybe Nash will come up in the next game, even if he doesn't come up and Lopez comes over and plays with the Knicks, and the victory will be in hand. Seeing Kuzma's good performance today may be an added bonus~

"Kante don't come out and grab rebounds under the basket. López is now flexible and conscious. So you have to pay attention to this. The rest of the players are looking for opportunities to shoot in constant cooperation, and don't let go of the opposition's role players and guards who have done well in this game......"

Chen quietly assigned tasks to the players. Although the difference is not very big after 8 points, the strength of the opponent and the quality of the players are enough to maintain this difference until the end.

Coach Walton has gradually matured, although everyone felt very new to him when he first came to the Lakers. Young players are appreciated by Jackson and come out of the player's family. And not only is he young, but he also has a handsome appearance and a casual personality.

In terms of career development, Wharton's self-adjustment is still relatively timely. Just like Coach Lu, if the players feel that there are some bottlenecks, or if they feel that they are better at tactical planning and game analysis, they may as well go straight to this area.

Now he doesn't have that time when he has been questioned by the Lakers for a while. The team is moving in a good direction.

The race is on. On the Knicks' head is Kanter, Porzingis, Beasley, Nelikina. The Lakers are Lopez, Yi Jianlian, Kuzma, Kobe and Clarkson!

Such a lineup made the Knicks' heart sink here. Jack held the ball across the halfcourt, and Porzingis didn't shoot under Yi Jianlian's defense after getting the basket! Lopez immediately grabbed the rebound and passed the ball to Kuzma. Kobe Bryant hit a three-point shot after receiving Kuzma's pass in the frontcourt!

After Ntilikina got the ball, he immediately shook off Kobe Bryant under the cover of Jack's body, and hit 2 points under Clarkson's defense! 85：94！ Kuzma, Kobe, Clarkson, and Lopes are all good offensive players!

However, Bryant still plans to pass more balls to his teammates. Kuzma got the basketball in the corner and immediately brushed himself up with a three-pointer. 85：97！ Then he pointed his finger at Kobe Bryant and ran over.

Porzingis asked for the ball directly, and immediately after getting the basketball, he came out and hit a three-pointer! 88：97！ Kobe Bryant can clearly feel that the Knicks' cooperation has improved a lot on the court! This should be what Chen Yinan focuses on, as well as the result of Jackson's efforts.

Lopez missed a jumper, Kante got the basketball and passed to Jack, who hit a three-point shot when the opponent didn't return in time for half time! 91：97！ The fans at the scene immediately cheered! The bench seems to have been "activated" by this three-point shot. Several players stood up to cheer the team on!

Clarkson went to the frontcourt, and after the three-point shooting, Lopez got the rebound and passed to Kobe, who passed to Yi Jianlian, who also had no long-range 2 points. Lopes got the rebound again and passed to Kuzma. His jump shot still didn't, Yi Jianlian broke free of the opponent and immediately made up for 2 points! 99：91！

The play of Kuzma and Ntilikina in this match is a highlight. The alignment of Yi Jianlian and Porzingis is a highlight. Kante and López, veteran Jack and Kobe Bryant are also very exciting!

Ntilikina was up front with the ball, and Jack took the basketball and passed it to Boshen. Nelikina hit a basketball three-pointer again! 99：94！ At this point, the Lakers' defense seems to be starting to slacken.

Kobe Bryant passed the ball to Lopez, and Da Loma, who hadn't returned yet, shot a three-pointer and didn't have a three-pointer after Porzingis got the rebound and passed the ball to Ntilikina. Immediately Jack went to the front court and missed a three-point jumper. Beasley came out as soon as he got the ball and went to the basket with a three-point hollow! 99：97！

At this time, Wharton, who was watching the game from the sidelines, felt that something was wrong. After Bryant's long-range shot failed, Kanter immediately grabbed the rebound and passed the ball to Beasley in a near miss. The latter hesitated to shake his player away before passing the ball out.

Originally, for the pass just now, the average player still passed the ball out relatively smoothly. But it's not so easy to get to Beasley...... The camera is shown on the Lakers bench. Quite a few players laughed there. Some of them even laughed and blossomed~ The scene is more funny~

Nelikina didn't shoot after getting the basketball, and at this time, seeing that the Lakers player had already run over, he immediately passed the ball to Jack next to Beasley, who hit a 2-point jumper directly! 99：99！

Kobe Bryant still hit a three-point iron after halftime, Yi Jianlian missed the shot after getting the basketball, and Kuzma planned to pass the ball to Lopez and was directly cut off by Ntilikina! Porzingis hits a three-point shot after receiving a pass in the frontcourt! 102：99！ The Knicks are overtaking! The other party immediately asked for a timeout.

"With López and Clarkson at the core. Pass the ball to them more, and the opponent's current cooperation is still good. So now it's time to defend one and look at the player next to you to death......" Wharton quickly laid out the task. World Peace was called, and his defense was still very strong!

"Still playing in the same way as you were and don't play alone unless the opportunity comes out. Beasley is free here, and the next game Beasley is focused on attacking and scoring points. Defensively, don't give the opposition a chance......"

Turning around and looking over, the Lakers replaced Yi Jianlian, Kuzma and Kobe with World Peace, Ingram, and Ball. In Wharton's opinion, Kobe Bryant doesn't feel very good now. At this point, the players will pass the ball to him when they are not very sure, which may speed up the end of the game.

World Peace replaced Yi Jianlian to provide a bonus to the team's defense, while Ball's passing was good. Clarkson is okay now.

Ingram hits a three-point shot after receiving a pass from Ball! 94：83！ Jack held the ball across half court and returned a three-pointer in front of Ball! The fans who were still there to watch the game immediately cheered! Because the current game looks like the Knicks haven't been completely dragged into garbage time.

World Peace passes the ball to López. Kante jumped with Boshen and Da Luo! Kante gave López a big hat in a sturdy way! Beasley got the ball and quickly went to the front court to chase down a three-pointer! 94：89！

What is in front of Walton this season is how to deal with the current relationship with Kobe Bryant as the head coach of a team. There have been some games before, or it can be said that more than 30 games, Wharton is giving Kobe Bryant some "privileges". He felt that he could go to the ring if he wanted to.

But when there was a problem with the team's results, he immediately thought about it. Then, after a certain amount of thinking, Wharton began to become no longer just listening to the Black Mamba on the field. Such a move was also respected by Kobe.

In some games, Kobe Bryant may not be able to win. He's a little more physically limited at the moment. And fitness may affect his offensive efficiency.

Clarkson held the ball across the half court, and after Ingram got the ball, he turned around Beasley and went straight to the basket to score points! 96：89！

Jack took the ball from Kante and slowly went to the frontcourt, and Porzingis immediately came out to catch the ball and hit a three-point shot! 96：92！

......

"Really? No, I didn't feel like the team was going to lose, and the players handled it reasonably in some of the rounds that followed. The efficiency of the opponent's attack is good for us. Eventually, this result was also contributed. ”

Chen said this, unscrewed the mineral water beside him and drank it. There was nothing too happy about the game as if he had expected it. It's a big contrast to his players.

124：121！ In the end, the Lakers missed several shots and two turnovers directly missed their victory tonight! In the end, the expression of many people on the Lakers, including the coach, was incredulous. They didn't expect tonight's game to end with such a result.

Bryant's expression was calm. After a short while, he left the scene directly.

In this game, he had 17 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, Yi Jianlian had 10 points, 6 rebounds and 1 assist, and Kuzma had 20 points, 12 rebounds and 2 steals! Ingram had 16 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, and Clarkson had 19 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist.

Kuzma is still strong! The team did have a good arrangement and the players scored more evenly. As long as it's at the right time, the Lakers will score right away!

"Well, I didn't expect that. In the final moments, our team made a couple of mistakes that now seem fatal. I don't think Kobe Bryant would have won the game if he had played in the later stages. The game was within the allowable range, but we lost the game within that range. Oh, I was just talking about the players. Chen in this game, he also played well. ”

Wharton relaxed a lot during the post-game interview. He might have accepted the result by now.

"What did he just say? Uh-huh. I don't have a problem with that. I think Wharton is a good coach. It's nothing, it's just a game. Bryant said disapprerovingly to the reporters.

Knicks' Kanter had 9 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists, and Porzingis had 27 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists! Beasley 16 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists! Hardaway Jr. 15 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists! Jack 14 points, 3 rebounds and 10 assists!

The players keep in mind the state of play and the task of scoring quickly! In the last moment, he unexpectedly won the game! Later, some netizens said that if Kobe Bryant played, the Lakers might not be able to win, but it would be difficult to say if Kuzma was there.

In short, here in New York, there is another victory! The players are in a more content state at this time. And now the happiest should be the Knicks fans!

"It's right to choose Chen Yinan! After Porzingis, now I have another idol! That's our manager! ~Yes! I'm so excited, that's the Lakers! ”

"My feeling is that the Knicks picked him. I watched the Nets last season, and this season I switched to the Knicks. Chen is really ...... I think his tactical style of play is pretty good. This guy will be a good coach in the future. He has his own unique tactical style of play and philosophy. That's what I've seen before about Atkinson's impression of him. If the Nets can do miracles, why can't they continue with the Knicks? ”

The fans at the scene were in a frenzy. Some fans are calmer when they face the camera.

"I don't think so. Chen, this guy took our 5 million contract, but he took our speedboat. It is estimated that an ordinary coach can coach at this level. What kind of players do you look at in our current squad? If Lee can play, I guess we will be stronger! Chen: I feel that it may have limited the development of our team! ”

"Hey, man. I feel that your words are somewhat biased. But Jackson may not be with us for long. Another said with a smile to the middle-aged man next to him, and then the smile on his face disappeared.

"I don't think Anthony should leave, he should leave!"

"Don't say that. How did Jackson get here? And Anthony didn't play when he was there, so the team didn't get many wins. I'm not saying this player is not good, but in other things I don't say it's good. ”

"It's all old stuff and maybe our team will do well this season!"

The management of the New York Knicks had just had a meeting, and the two managers were talking as they left the conference room.

For some more grassroots staff, Chen Yinan's impression is still good. In the case of managers, however, the situation becomes more complicated. Jackson felt this deeply. He will continue to pursue what he likes, such as the Knicks' desire to run him well enough in his different capacity.

Not to mention the championship team, but at least it should be one of the top teams in the East. However, in recent years, what I have gotten is a feeling of being rotten, sluggish, and unable to bring anything. In recent years, the coach Chen Yinan has also appeared in his field of vision a few times.

A lot of games left a deep impression on him. He also feels that Chen may be the next Knicks coach. The kind that can be here for a few seasons. But even if he was to recruit him to the Knicks and give him a guaranteed contract, he didn't meet it. And here he is coming forward as president!

This year, he also felt the subtle changes in the team. Some places are starting to stop being in his charge, and lately he feels like maybe his time here is running out. A lot of the plans and ideas may just have to be done right there.

The next game between the Knicks and the Nets has attracted a lot of attention from the outside world. The Nets have suffered some of their losses right now. They desperately need to win a few games now. The morale of the team is starting to slip a bit.

Mikhail is also keeping an eye on the timing of the game. He's looking at his team at the moment. If the team's results start to decline, then it's time to consider a change of manager. The idea has been brewing, but it hasn't been said yet.

For the current Brooklyn, it is still a little difficult for Chen to play. Because the Lakers are somewhat like their enhanced version. The Nets are a team that can play average teams at all positions this season.

However, in terms of the ability of the players in the team, it is still relatively weak. Now the team is playing with Mozgov, Crabbe, and Jeremy Lin as the main core. At the same time, the performance on the forward line is also okay. Russell was able to step up immediately after Lin was off the field.

First of all, Chen Yinan let the team take a day off. The next day, the regular training began. Brooklyn wasn't too far, and it was the evening of the third day after arriving at the Barclays Center.

"Tomorrow morning and afternoon add up to three warm-up sessions! There is basically not much difference between them and the Lakers, except that there is no Kobe Bryant and Nash. So I ask you not to take it lightly. Chen said to his players with a serious expression.

"Lakers without Kobe and Nash? Is that basically a sure win? As soon as Lance finished speaking, the players around him burst into laughter.

"Lance, you want to sit on the bench?" Chen immediately smiled and said to Lance, who was not far from him.

"Coach, I didn't mean that......" If it was the Nets in the past, I guess some players would start joking. But the atmosphere in this team is not familiar to that extent?

"Blind optimism is the beginning of your failure. Don't get carried away by a few wins. You're still far from the best teams in the East. Chen's face sank. I was going to scare and scare them~ After saying that, I left. Leave the players who were feeling good just now standing there a little silly.

"I'm just talking, and the Nets aren't really that good. Cavaliers, Spurs, we've all won," Lance said there as if he were asking for approval and talking to himself after Chen walked away.

"If we have this mentality, maybe we will lose next. Did you see Leonard and Aldridge in that Spurs game? Porzingis immediately caught the attention of the players around him as soon as he spoke.

"I really didn't pay attention to it......" Lance said after many of the players laughed. A few of them felt a little weak immediately after laughing.

"If Leonard and Aldridge play alone, it is estimated that it will be enough for us to drink a pot. And the Cavaliers probably have the same mentality as you, so he lost to us. ”

"I don't think so, the Cavaliers have lost a lot of games in the past," Lance continued.

"I don't rule out the possibility of what you said. I don't know if the current Cavaliers are not running in enough players or what. But even if you're right. How do you feel about Coach Chen? ”

"Yes, our team feels like they've changed after passing through his hands."

"The first place our coach came to the NBA was the Nets?"

"Charlotte," Jack picked up.

"It's not a short time for the Nets. Some of the players in Brooklyn right now are Chen's. Then you weigh the current strength of the Nets. ”

After Porzingis said this, Lance was stunned for a moment. Apparently he did not take this factor into account.

After Chen's understanding of the team when he was at the Nets. The resilience of this team is still not low! They can be consumed with you all the time! Until you make a mistake or the offensive efficiency drops, Brooklyn will quickly counterattack!

There is some similarity with the Lakers in that the current opponent is not an easy team to play. And they've lost some games and need an immediate win to lift their spirits. Then the game won't go so well.

And unlike the Lakers, some players on the Nets are sometimes in good shape and can score a lot of points! As long as they play properly, they can quickly take the initiative on the field!
