"Oh, your leg is okay, right?" When Chan saw little Hardaway coming, he immediately walked over and said to him.

"The team doctor told me that if there is nothing serious, I will be able to play next week."

"Good news!"

"I didn't think your coaching skills were very good, but in the past few days, I have thought about it, and my father has also given me some advice and opinions about you."

"Your father was amazing back then, by the way, what did he say about me~"

"Isn't this what I'm here, I think for a moment and feel that he is right. I probably came to the NBA so smoothly."

"You're a good defender, and I already knew that," Chen said, holding his hands on his shoulders and squinting his eyes slightly.

"Coach, you shouldn't be sarcastic about me, are you?"

"No, your movements and some experience are much more mature than those of your age! It's not surprising that you get a salary of tens of millions."

"So this may be my misunderstanding, coach, sorry I ......"

"Take care of your injury, the team needs you next. I forgive you, and I appreciate your talent, which should have inherited your father's excellent genes. Say hello to him for me."

After the team has gone through two consecutive wins, there have been subtle changes in both the media, the surrounding fans, and the team! Although only 4 games were played. But the win rate looks good right now!

For a team that was still in the quagmire of losing a lot last season, it feels good to have two wins in a row. However, Chen is not satisfied, and the team's training intensity has come up! Chen Yinan focused on communicating with the trainer and increasing the intensity of the team's defensive training!

In the contest of the players that day, I felt that I had a slight effect. On this day, except for Lee, who did not come, the morale of the other players in the team was high!

The next opponent is the Phoenix Suns! This team is now just relying on young people to see if they can play in the future. The overall strength of the team is not very strong. But they played hard.

What Chen's Knicks need now is good discipline and the best possible execution on the court. Some players have the meaning of this now, but they just can't play on the field. This may have something to do with the long period of wandering.

Naturally, if Booker wants to bring up the team at this time, he will have a highlight performance! And that's exactly what he did. But even with Westbrook's strong performance, the team can only make the playoffs.

The best model in this league right now is that a few good players can be combined, maybe there will be play, maybe they can play well.

The team had some friction with Chen Yinan at the beginning. But now it's basically not a big problem.

They also know that this guy is here for real! Whoever goes against him will not have a chance to play! And the main players of the team are not on their side either!

Who wouldn't want to get a little more stats during the regular season?! The result of this is definitely a lot of damage to the players. It's a big deal that Chen doesn't do it, and he can still be a good assistant coach in other teams.

The players are different. Can you guarantee that you're still active in the ring like Carter? Can you still have his physicality? This profession that relies on youth to eat does not have much time to mix in this arena, and if there are some small episodes, it will basically be impossible to be a star player.

Hardaway II had recently suddenly felt that he had made a big mistake. The opportunity you have earned may be inadvertently gone! If you don't play well this season, you will be angry with this, and the one who can't look down on it will probably be sent directly to the blue-collar position to play.

At that time, the star players in the team are stable, and there is basically no chance of competing between blue-collar and new players to fight for the status of star player. If the ability is very outstanding, after all, it is still a minority.

"It's been a long time since I've seen the coach!" Daniels ran over and chatted with Chen!

"yes, how's it going to be with the Suns? Now you're a big part of the team, right? Chen immediately said with his eyes shining.

"Our strength is not stable at the moment. But I'm looking forward to this season! Our goal this season is to make the playoffs! ”

"Not bad! Give it a try! Well, you go over and see how you played today~" Chen said to Daniels immediately after seeing his gesture to warm up.

Daniels, who played well with the Nets back then, is now a blue-collar backup guard for the Suns! A contract of 3 million+ in a single year! That's a salary increase this year! The previous single-year salary was basically between 1 million and 1.5 million.

The best mix of players leaving Brooklyn right now is probably Bojan. This year, he got the first single-year 1000+ contract of his career!

As the atmosphere of the fans gradually increased with the agitation of the DJ, the players were already standing on the field.

Hardaway Jr. is still out of the game due to injury. Their starters were N'Golo Kante, Doug, Beasley, Jack and Ramon. The opposing ones are Chandler, Dudley, Warren, Booker, and Jackson.

The ability of the opposing team's two players, Warren and Jackson, is still okay. Chandler took the lead and passed the ball directly to Booker, who was not far away. The latter dribbled directly and took advantage of Dudley's cover to jump up and hit a three-point shot!

The overall strength of the team is very low, and Devin just wants to score as many points as possible at this time. He's good at this too. Doug went to the sideline to serve, Jack took the basketball and slowly went to the frontcourt, Ramon didn't make a layup after taking the basket! Kante got the rebound and was immediately about to make up the dunk and was covered by Chandler!

Young Jackson immediately rushed to the half-court and quickly went to the basket to dunk and score points! 5：0！ The Suns are in good shape after the start.

Ramon saw Beasley with the ball and immediately passed it. The latter jumped directly into the net with three points! 5：3！

"Is this player okay? ~ It's just that he doesn't listen to the coaches a little," Chen said while standing with the coaches. Now their relationship is good. When they first came to the team, they felt that Chen was okay.

Although he is young, he is very easy-going when it comes to communication. It's easier to talk.

"Beasley's words are a good player if he's on the pitch. But as you said, the headache is that he doesn't like to pass, and it is estimated that he can't control himself a little on the field~" The surrounding coaches immediately laughed after hearing the words of an assistant coach.

Unlike the Nets' coaching staff, Chen didn't know if that was the case last season, and he didn't pay much attention. That's the Knicks' coaching staff's ability is still okay.

Although some of them are more average in color, they are basically more thoughtful. And it seems to be the type that puts more effort into execution.

Chen can be optimistic about several tactical and defensive drills in one game. This has reduced his workload a lot! But he didn't mean to relax. He wants the Knicks to continue to win, so that he can be worthy of the million-dollar salary that has caused a sensation in the media for a while!

"So, if this guy plays well, he hurts the other party, and when he doesn't play well, he hurts us~" Chen immediately watched the game after finishing speaking.

Booker continued to hold the ball slowly to the frontcourt, and Warren hit a three-point shot as soon as he got the basket! 8：3！

Ramon gets his hands on N'Golo Kante and passes it to Jack. The latter easily passed Jackson in the front court and jumped directly into the net with 2 points! 8：5！ It's still the opponent's defensive end that is relatively loose.

Their center is okay defensively right now. Jackson's words met Jack, then he was basically a lot weaker than the defense. Jack doesn't have much pressure against such a team.

Booker quickly rushed to the front court and hit a three-pointer under the bag of Ramon and Beasley! 11：5！ Immediately the scene resounded with exclamations! This three-point caught Chen's attention.

Booker tonight has no reservations! His shot is very resolute! Doug got the pass and missed a throw!

Jackson got the rebound directly and rushed over quickly! Devin took the basketball and immediately passed the ball to Chandler, who ran over! The latter dunked directly and caused a foul on Beasley under the basket and successfully played 2+1! 14：5！

"What's going on?" Chen thought so in his heart and immediately asked for a timeout.

"Porzingis prepare. That opposing player, Booker and Jackson, should be more careful. None of them move slowly. And on the inside to do enough kills......"

The players will be back right away. Jack passed the ball directly to Porzingis in the half, and Beasley hit a 2-pointer from close range after getting a pass from Boshen! 14：7！

The Suns just defended Porzingis to death! Devin carried the ball to the frontcourt, and Porzingis immediately jumped up as if he knew he was going to shoot, and successfully interfered with Booker!

The basketball smashed into the basket and Kante got the ball and passed it to Porzingis. Jack got the basketball and hit a three-point shot after halftime! 14：10！

"It's different with him and without him......" Chen thought to himself as he looked at Porzingis.

Warren quickly got rid of Beasley with the ball and scored points after a layup! Ramon received Beasley's serve and went to the front court, and Kante took the ball and immediately passed it to Porzingis. The latter hit a three-point shot right away! 16：13！

Phoenix obviously feels that hitting the other party is starting to get harder! With Jackson's shot no! Porzingis got the ball and passed it to Jack, who looked at Beasley and passed it to Ramon.

Ramon hit a three-point shot with no one to defend him! 16：16！

"Don't care too much about the opponent's attack. Let's keep the efficiency of the offense ......" the opposing coach was patiently assigning tasks. When Chan looked there, he saw that Daniels had begun to take off his coat.

"Jack, you're going to show me Daniels in a moment, this guy's shooting is sometimes good! Ramon's words pass the ball to the basket more! The focus of the attack shifted to Porzingis and N'Golo Kante......"

From the Nets to the Rockets and then to Memphis, he has already had some experience in the game when he came to the Suns this season. What makes the media feel good is that Daniels' performance on the field has begun to become more consistent!

Now he is averaging 9.2 points, 1 rebound and 0.9 assists per game! A score-oriented guard, but he also has the ability to organize. I didn't have a lot of playing time, and I was very efficient.

He got a certain amount of respect after the Nets went out. Although due to various reasons, the arrangement of players, the addition of newcomers, Daniels has not been treated at the captain level of the team.

But his hard work in the gym and his performances on the pitch still show his value as a player!

Jack felt the opponent's ability and attitude when defending Daniels! Daniels didn't dare to act rashly when he was facing Jack, Warren suddenly took Daniels' pass and dunked to score points! 18：16！

Before the game, some assistant coaches on the Knicks' coaching staff also said that the Suns are basically still the third-tier team now. Their offense is relatively simple, and their defense is not good. It's still difficult to do well this season.

But in this game, the Knicks saw a very serious team. Compared with them, New York's mistakes and looseness seem to have returned to the Knicks in previous seasons......

Porzingis got the basketball, and Dudley hit a 2-pointer with his back to the basket. 18：18！

One of the obvious questions facing the Knicks right now is how the team can become less dependent on Porzingis. Like today's game, Porzingis originally wanted him to play in the second quarter, then the real game may only need to play three quarters.

But when he sits on the court, let the Suns attack...... If this problem is not solved or improved to a certain extent, if you encounter a strong team, you will basically give the victory to the other party. What makes Chen more pleased is that his team is now in a more positive state on the field.

Devin missed a jumper, and Porzingis got the rebound and passed to Beasley, who immediately dribbled across the halfcourt and jumped up to shoot a three-pointer straight out of bounds......

In the sudden exclamation at the scene, Chen really wanted to take a stool and throw it at Beasley......

"My strength is a little small, pay attention next time~" Beasley explained to his teammates after seeing them coming. Jack immediately walked away from him. Porzingis looked at Beasley's back for a few seconds with a black line on his face. It doesn't seem like it's a matter of your strength, okay?!

Chen took a fancy to Beasley's sometimes good hand and put him up in the first quarter. Now I'm wondering who will replace him.

Warren serves to Daniels. He was next to Booker, and suddenly used his body to block and make Jack unable to come right away, and suddenly got up and rushed to the basket, although the ball didn't go in, but Kanter received a foul!

Standing at the free throw line, he slapped the ball a few times and threw it in.

Jack slowly made his way to the frontcourt, thinking about who to pass the ball to. Beasley's ball, Jack simply ignored it. This kid still didn't have a lot of passes in this game. It doesn't seem to have been a single ......

Porzingis demanded but he had two defenders on his side. Ramon got the basketball on the other side and suddenly accelerated, feigned a layup, attracted the defender, and immediately passed the ball!
