"You must have just been informed. I'll be in charge of the team as your head coach for the next two months. Chen stood in front of more than 10 players and briefly introduced himself.

When he first came here, he was a little unhappy with the loose training attitude of some players. But this is the first day I've seen the players in the team. Maybe they were resting, so the matter quickly faded from my mind.

The eyes swept to Jack, as well as Porzingis, these are the two better people in the team at the moment. The first game of the regular season is at home against the Minnesota Timberwolves! What's worse is that the Nets' Teague has joined the Timberwolves!

In this way, the current Timberwolves are already very good offensively! And on the defensive end, the energetic Butler and the titanic Gibson can also bring the team an iron bucket of defense. and Coach Thibodeau, who is known for his defense and is now the coach of the Timberwolves, will make the team mature a lot!

The current Knicks are still in good spirits. So it's not particularly laborious to bring them with you. After asking, I learned that Noah's injuries were not very serious. The team has worked the inside this season.

In the short exchange, Chen still felt that the atmosphere of the team was not quite right. The rush of time may be the main reason. It didn't take long for Chen to leave here.

The house there in Brooklyn has been vacated. And now just stayed in the hotel. In the evening, Chen still felt that the place he had chosen was not very good. It's noisy at night, and it's noticeably livelier than Brooklyn too.

On that day, it was Jeremy Lin, Atkinson, Teague and other players, and the coach called Chen to congratulate. Tickets are sold out here for the day!

Some media outlets began to report on it. Basically, the idea is to see how far the Knicks team with Chen Yinan can play!

......

It's a bit like the playoffs today! Chen and some of the teaching assistants present today nodded and began to think about it. If the Knicks want to win, the guard is a key here.

And in the center and big forward positions are still good!

"Coach! Congratulations! 5 million! It's higher than my salary! Zhang Hao saw Chen and immediately ran over with a basketball.

"I haven't seen you for a long time~ Uh-huh, yes, the muscles have thickened a bit. Pay attention to your own data, which is an important reference factor when setting a price for you in the future"

"I knew I was going to the Knicks~"

"Say everything! You can use this sentence in Chinese. Alright, let's warm up, the game will start in a moment."

After a brief greeting between the two of them, Zhang Hao began his warm-up. The surrounding cameras began to catch up with the young man. I saw Zhang Hao facing the basket and immediately hit 5 three-pointers in a row! Looks like he's in good shape!

Thibodeau watched from the sidelines as players from both sides warmed up. He didn't take the time to look at Chen. The camera hits Chen Yinan from time to time. After seeing the scene, it attracted a lot of screams.

After a while, the Timberwolves' starters came in! The players are Kerr, Gibson, Butler, Brooks, Jones! The Knicks are Kanter, Porzingis, Lance, Hardaway and Nelikina.

Jack: Here, Chen feels that it is better to put him up when he is later. Although excellent, it is also limited by physical fitness.

It's game on! Kanter immediately got the basketball and quickly passed the ball to Hardaway Jr., and went straight to the basket in the face of Brooklyn's defense, but Gibson successfully interfered with it! The basketball smashed out of the basket, and Butler got the rebound and ran quickly!

Jones jumped for a three-pointer after receiving the basketball. Butler jumped high again to get the rebound and scored a dunk!

Although I had some psychological preparation in the early stage, I was still surprised to see Butler like this! Ntilikina received Porzingis' serve and was too slow to pass the half. Lance got the ball and immediately went to the basket and was directly blocked by Kerr!

Hardaway Jr. jumped up and shot after getting the basketball and still missed! Gibson takes the ball and passes it quickly to Black Bean! Jones received a long pass from Black Beans and immediately made a layup to score 2 points! 4：0！

"What kind of defensive intensity is this?!" Chen muttered inwardly.

Reims received the ball and passed it to Porzingis again. Facing Gibson's defense, Porzingis hit a 2-pointer under his block! 4：2！ At present, New York will belong to Porzingis after Anthony is gone!

Outside of him, Kante's attack is also very good in the center! But N'Golo Kante wasn't very good at moving speed. With Butler's pass, Kerr immediately jumped up and dunked in the air to catch the basketball and score 2 points! 6：2！

At this time, the other party's Downs has not come up yet! And the coach on the team also wants to see how Butler and Gibson feel on the spot. With them, it's a lot harder to score.

Butler took a few steps forward, and Porzingis didn't continue to dribble when he saw it, but stood up and shot! In the exclamation of the scene, Porzingis hit a long-range three-pointer!! 6：5！

The atmosphere at the scene immediately became enthusiastic! At present, Porzingis on the Knicks' side has scored 5 points alone! The rest of the players didn't do a good job.

Looking at New York as a whole, it feels like the players are in a scattered state, and Porzingis is holding on to it like a beacon for the team.

Gibson received Jones' pass and immediately turned his back to Boshen and then failed to score. Kante got the rebound and threw the ball high to Porzingis, and Hardaway Jr. immediately took the basketball and went straight to the half court and scored directly to the basket! 7：6！

Brooks holds the ball to the front court and hits a three-point hollow shot! 9：7！ The current Knicks can be said to be playing against the Timberwolves without Towns. After Lance's jumper missed, Butler got the rebound again and passed the ball to Black Bean!

Kerr arrived to pick up the basketball and dunk directly! 11：7！ Chen was about to take a timeout.

"Pay attention to the coordination between the players......" Looking at the Knicks players on the scene, Chen immediately recovered from the pause.

"Defenders don't shoot too hastily here, pass the ball to our front line players or center forwards. Well, that's all. ”

Ntilikina quickly went to the front court after receiving Porzingis' serve, and Hardaway Jr. took the basketball and was immediately forced to cover the basketball by Gibson! didn't listen to Chen at all, Butler immediately got the basketball and went to the frontcourt to directly dunk the points in an axe-like manner! 13：7！

Chen suddenly seemed to understand something. We know there's a manager in the team. But it's up to them whether they listen or not......

Porzingis was about to go to the basketball, turned around and faced Butler's defense, took advantage of the difference in rhythm and rubbed away with the opponent, and immediately jumped high and hit a three-point shot! 13：10！ Now there is not much more to say about Porzingis in the team. His shooting accuracy is high, and the quality of the players is not low.

The reflexes and defense on the field were also good. But the rest of the team is hard to say. N'Golo Kante didn't get a couple of balls today. The rest of the players wanted to shoot right away, but they didn't take into account the efficiency of the attack.

Immediately, the Jones hit a three-pointer back! 16：10！ Judging from this style of play, Jack's presence is particularly important in the Knicks!

30：22！ The first quarter of the game ended in small talk. The gap between the two sides in terms of strength and the performance of a few days is clearly there. This also made the attention of the fans at the scene not as focused as at the beginning.

"Remember to pass the ball to N'Golo Kante and Porzingis," Chan said to Jack, who had been active for a while.

"No problem, the 8-point difference is nothing for us" Jack is quite familiar with himself now, and the other players are still relatively unfamiliar. The cheers at the scene came up, and the opponent Zhang Hao replaced Gibson on the field.

Butler felt the Knicks' "care" of him as soon as he took over the basketball. immediately passed the ball to Brooks, and Zhang Hao hit a three-point shot immediately after getting the basketball in the bottom corner! 33：22！

His performance also made the Timberwolves feel a lot more relaxed in the game. Jack dribbled to the frontcourt, and Lance got the ball and made a layup that was directly cut off by Butler! After Zhang Hao received the ball, he immediately passed the ball to the fast-moving Downs!

Because the action was too fast, Downs immediately stabilized and jumped high and dunked violently to score points! 35：22！ Jack passes the ball to Porzingis over half-time. Facing the bag and Porzingis, he hit a three-point shot directly!

With Butler's jumper missing, Jack didn't get up to speed after getting a pass from N'Golo Kante. When everyone thought he was going to pass the ball to Porzingis, Kante ran behind him and got Jack's ball, and immediately scored with a tomahawk dunk! 35：27！

Jack is indeed a key player in the team! Black Beans went to the frontcourt, and after the three points were gone, Downs passed the ball again, and Brooks hit a three-point shot this time! 38：27！

Watching Porzingis receive basketball again, Chen felt as if he was leading the team like a copy of Anthony. After a feint shook off Zhang Hao, Boshen immediately dunked and scored points! 38：29！

Jones slowly got to the front court with the ball, and Towns got the basketball and forced a layup in front of Porzingis. Kanter immediately got the rebound and passed the ball out, but Butler directly received it and jumped up to dunk and scored! 40：29！

Jack held the ball to the frontcourt, faced the bag of two guards and still used feints to deceive and immediately burst in to make a layup to score points! 40：31！

Black Beans took the basketball and scored 2 points from a distance. Porzingis immediately got the rebound and passed the ball to Lance, and Hardaway Jr. immediately got the basketball and began to accelerate after passing the opponent in Jones' defense!

The scene immediately began to shout! This season's Hardaway II has its own spring! The salary has entered the level of more than 10 million in a single year! Not playing as well as he should have felt like there was a lack of support for the team.

With no one to defend him, Hardaway II immediately jumped high and dunked to score 2 points! 40：33！

Jones saw Downs' request after half-time and immediately passed it. In the face of Kante's defense, Downs immediately turned around and threw 2 points into the account! 42：33！

Jack held the ball to the frontcourt, Hardaway Jr. asked for the ball, and in the face of Butler's defense, Hardaway Jr. directly used his rhythm to pull away from the opponent a certain distance, and then immediately leaned back to shoot the basketball hollow hit! 42：35！

It's good that the Knicks' stiff offense can play to this extent. And the Downs on the other side had no intention of relaxing at all. He took the basketball again and forced a foul on Porzingis' defense.

After a few slaps, he made the second free throw. 44：35！ After Hardaway Jr. got the basketball, he passed the ball to Porzingis as decisively as if he had heard what Chen was thinking, and when he attracted two defenders!
