Immediately, the Knicks opened up the score difference, and Chen's mood relaxed a little. I thought that changing the lineup would have an effect, but I didn't expect it to be so big.

"Hardaway Jr. has to focus on defense here, and Payton guards Nickina. Pay more attention to the defense on the inside. Shoot more when attacking the opponent instead of rushing in......"

Atkinson was quick to give his team a task. Payton immediately straightened his clothes and came to the field. Augustin didn't have a three-pointer after receiving a basketball. After Fournier got the rebound, the legend went to Payton.

The latter scored points on a jumper after passing Nelikina directly! 16：9！ The Magic are trailing by 7 points at this point! Peyton came up and immediately changed the team's state!

It will take a few years for the player to prove himself in the NBA. At the moment, he can play with excellent blue-collar defender stats in the team! Biased point guard, but his individual scoring is also good.

Ntilikina held the ball past half-pitch and Noah got the ball and passed it to Kante. The latter missed a jumper and Vucevic lifted the ball high after taking the rebound, and passed the ball to Payton after seeing Hardaway Jr. leave.

At present, in the Magic team, in addition to the big center, Atkinson is more optimistic about Aaron and Payton. These two young men see their potential. Aaron's words are personal breakthrough ability, and now it is very good.

It's a little more consistent on the field. And Peyton's words are also a topic of conversation in the league, not only with a strange hairstyle, but also with a strange personal style of play. If you can make a name for yourself in the future, I believe it will become a good style.

In the face of Jack's defense, Payton directly feigned to pass him and immediately went to the frontcourt to hit a long-range three-pointer! 16：12！

Peyton came up and felt good. And he knows that now the team needs players to start scoring consistently. Such a score also caught Chen's attention.

He's constantly disrupting the Knicks' rhythm and confusing his players, but scoring is always a good thing. In Atkinson's assignment, Payton was required to play playmaking guard and Augustin to play shooting guard.

Apparently he seems to have done it the other way around. Hardaway Jr. passed half the court, and Kanter scored a direct dunk after the jump shot was missing! 18：12！

31：22！ The first quarter ended with a 9-point margin! In the second quarter, Aaron replaced Fournier, and the Knicks' Beasley came on the court to play the No. 3 position. Porzingis is still unplayed.

Jack passed the ball to Beasley after halftime, who hit a three-pointer right away! 34：22！ The fans at the scene were hooked! Magic doesn't seem to be so powerful.

When I was thinking about it, Allen returned a three-pointer directly after halftime! 34：25！ With Jack's three-pointer gone, Biyombo got the rebound and passed to Payton, who went to the frontcourt to get the ball to Augustin. Immediately after that, the Magic scored another three-pointer!

The difference has narrowed to 6 points! Beasley's long-range 2-pointer was missing, and Vucevic picked up the rebound and passed to Aaron. Augustin immediately took over the basketball and scored points on a half-court layup! 34：30！

As a result of the winning streak until now, the Knicks have certain problems on defense and offense. That's when the shots start to become casual. Not a single player on the current team has discovered this problem. They feel that as long as they play like this, the shot will make the final game win.

After Ntilikina's hasty shot, Biyombo went straight to the rebound and passed the half. Payton hit a direct three-point shot! 34：33！ Chen was about to take a timeout.

"It's not okay to play like this, if you're tired of winning streaks, just let this game go straight away," Chen said bluntly to the Knicks players around him! That's when they feel like their mindset has influenced their behavior!

"Porzingis and O'Quinn play in the No.5 and No.4 positions respectively, so the team has to pay more attention to the combination. Porzingis can give the ball quickly here if he can. N'Golo Kante rests......"

The opponent's inside line is not very solid. So don't think too much about it. Both O'Quinn and Boshen have good scoring abilities. And at this time, the morale of the Magic team has also been beaten.

After returning to the court, Ntilikina slowly went to the frontcourt, but was still cut off by Payton, and glanced left and right to find that his players did not keep up, and Payton immediately made a layup in the half court to score points! 35：34！ The score is overtaken!

These few rounds seem to have completely shattered some of Chen Gang's ideas! Could it be that the Magic didn't start the game well because Payton didn't play? Facing the Knicks made Payton's state soar a lot! His idea tonight is to end the New York Knicks' winning streak!

Jack ran over to get the ball and passed the half, Payton had already prevented Ntilikina from death, and Beasley missed the jump shot after taking the basketball! Chen looked at the player with his eyes a little wider. What I had just said to him was immediately forgotten.

Augustin received the basketball in the front court, dribbled and ran a few steps back and made a three-point jumper! 38：34！

Not only overtaking, but now it also means widening the score difference! At this time, many fans at the scene showed black question mark expressions. The Knicks were as surprised as if a nice sedan was on the highway and suddenly turned off while it was moving.

Immediately after half-time, Boshen demanded of Jack, who got past Augustine and attracted a player to defend before immediately passing the ball to Porzingis. The latter dunked in front of Vucevic, and the basketball flew straight out!

The referee awarded Vucevic a foul, and Porzingis, who was standing on the free throw line, made both free throws. 38：36！ That's it, until now, the Knicks have relied on Porzingis' free throws to get points!

Payton went to the frontcourt, and Aaron suddenly came out to catch the ball and shot a three-point hollow into the net! 41：36！ At this time, the strength of the Magic team is gradually showing in front of New York!

And the Knicks' light opponent in the early stage makes it very difficult for them to catch up now. O'Quinn didn't get the rebound immediately after the jumper, and was directly interfered with by the opponent in the contest with Vucevic! Then Biyombo got the basketball and immediately passed the half, and Aaron received his pass and dunked directly to score points! 43：36！

At this time, Chen's brows were tightly locked, and the battle with Atkinson was good last season. Their team's form on the pitch has changed a lot this season. Is it really as the media said, the Magic will win the Nets and Knicks in these two games relatively easily?

Apparently Kenny came prepared, but his tactical thinking was interrupted by Chan for a while. Now Atkinson's plan continues to be executed. And the players are doing well.

After the Magic took the lead over the Knicks, the players became more and more active defensively! Not only have they fulfilled the coach's assignment, but their form has also improved a lot. Just now, I felt that the current Knicks are too powerful. And now I feel that they are nothing more than that.

That would allow the Magic to try to score more on some of the less adventurous offenses, and more on defense to get the Knicks to score as few points as possible.

Chen thought about it for almost six minutes, and finally asked for a timeout. In this quarter, Chen was made two timeouts by Atkinson's tactics to make adjustments! The two men have different styles of play, and it's clear that Atkinson is now setting things up even better!

"The offensive efficiency should be higher if it's still on the inside. Hardaway Jr. provides fire support on the outside. Jack's words play playmaking defenders, and Lance is ready to ......"

The readjusted Knicks team will have to pay more attention to the coordination again. This is also what Chen emphasized later. Beasley was nervous and he hadn't contributed an assist or even a pass so far, so Chen decisively replaced him.

Now is not the time to break up. The current magic trick is very difficult to beat! The scoring ability of Aaron, Augustin and Payton in them has been revealed.

After returning to the court, the Knicks players didn't have the win-winning look they had at the beginning of today's game. All of them came on the field with seriousness and precaution.

In the second quarter, they can play against you to such an extent, so in the next quarter, as long as they play well, the Knicks will immediately become the second Nets in the last game! And this kind of state is something Chen didn't expect, and it is something that his players didn't expect.

Jack quickly went to the frontcourt, and Hardaway Jr. took the basketball and turned around directly and got 2 points after passing Aaron and making a layup! 43：38！ At this time, Hardaway Jr.'s experience in the arena played a role!

Vucevic scored 2 points in the back singles Porzingis! Porzingis wanted the ball in the half, and immediately after receiving Hardaway Jr.'s pass, he went into the net with three points! 45：41！

55：55！ The audience at the second quarter of the game was really thrilling! The Knicks tied the score in the later games! In the third quarter, neither side changed lineups. Surprisingly, the Knicks didn't let Kanter come up.

After the second quarter of the game, Chen was on the other side of the locker room wondering what to do next. Atkinson has disrupted the Knicks' overall strategy! This made Chen immediately silent, and he finally thought it was better not to change the lineup!

Biyombo played a 2+1 after he came on the field! After Hardaway Jr. missed a three-pointer in the frontcourt, Oquinn got a rebound and passed to Porzingis. The current way of playing is that Porzingisla goes outside to shoot and score points!

In this way, it actually increases the risk of rebounding for your own team. Chen's idea is that as long as he can survive until a certain time and the difference between the two sides is not big, the opportunity will come soon. If the point difference is too wide, whether it is leading or falling behind, it is a signal for the Knicks to adjust the lineup immediately.

Boshen successfully hit a three-pointer in the face of Biyombo and Aaron's defense! 58：58！

Payton held the ball and feigned offense to attract two players and passed to Biyombo, who shot straight to the 2-pointer and hit the board! 60：58！ Lance took Hardaway Jr.'s pass and then passed it to Porzingis.

In tonight's match, Kante vs. Vucevic still has the upper hand. However, Porzingis was somewhat suppressed by the other party. The shot under the basket was blocked by the opponent in various ways!

I wanted to try it again, but immediately Vucevic fanned the ball out with a big hot pot! Augustin immediately ran over to get the basketball and passed the ball to Payton, who missed a three-point jumper and Aaron felt the dunk in the back! 62：58！

Jack's three-pointer was missed, Vucevic and Biyombo jumped together to grab the rebound, and Aaron took Biyombo's ball and passed the ball quickly to Augustin. The latter hit a three-point shot right away! 65：58！ The Knicks directly asked for a timeout.

After the timeout, Baker and N'Golo Kante came on. Porzingis is finally starting to play in the No. 4 position. Off the pitch, N'Golo Kante has accumulated a lot of rage! I thought to myself that you were bullying Xiaobo so much, see how I cleaned you up!

On his return, Baker passed the ball past half-time to N'Golo Kante. Under the bag of Vucevic and Aaron, Kante still rushed in and violently dunked to score points! 65：60！ The jersey was almost torn apart due to the action of too much power!

The fans at the scene were stimulated by Kante's dunk just now and the roar after coming down! The sound of getting up right now is cheering for their home team tonight!

There is still some lingering concern about the Knicks' Kanter Magic players. This guy's individual offense is at the forefront of the league's centers! Personality and explosiveness stand out!

Biyombo's jump shot was directly capped off by Boshen! Lance took the ball and went to the front court to hit a three-point shot directly! 65：63！ At this time, the Knicks came back to their senses a little!

Their lineup has a lot of confidence instantly increased because of the presence of N'Golo Kante, Porzingis and Hardaway Jr. on the field at the same time! After Aaron's stepping on the line and missing 2 points, Vucevic immediately got the rebound, and even the jump shot was directly covered by Kanter!

Lance gets the ball and passes it to Hardaway Jr. Baker scored 2 points after receiving a pass from Hardaway Jr. in the middle of the half! 65：65！ The Knicks finally tied the score!

Chen also feels that they must use such a lineup now to win the game! For tonight's game, the more you change this lineup in advance, the more dangerous it will be. Because Atkinson will develop a containment strategy against New York based on the performance of the Knicks on the field.

When Kenny was still the head coach of the Nets, Chen, as an assistant coach, and his boss witnessed almost 20 games in which they fell behind at the beginning and came back from defeat to victory!

It was an exciting time, with Lopez and Jeremy Lin coming to play with some new NBA rookies from the Development League and nearly 7-9 percent! Some of the players are inconsistent in their play, and some have little defensive ability on the field.

However, Da Luo and Jamilin at that time were still a lot of help to the team! After the game, after unexpectedly winning the opponent, the Nets, both the players and the coaching staff were very excited!

So will the opponent in today's game also have the possibility of turning the tables in the final quarter when they are already behind by some points?
