Chapter 214 [The Hobbit, Unexpected Starter]

At the Air Canada Center gymnasium, when the players played, the fans booed the Knicks and put pressure on them. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In addition to Billups, Miller also entered the injury list because of his knee, and the start arranged by Yang Rui made the eyes of everyone who paid attention to this game, and he actually went to the fringes of two teams.

THE STARTING POINT GUARD IS NOT THE EXPERIENCED DELL CURRY AND HORNACEK, BUT THE SECOND-YEAR ROOKIE, BOYKINS, WHO IS ONLY 165CM TALL. The other four are Christie, Carter, Jumaine Jones, O'Neal Jr.

Jumaine started because of his physical fitness, he mainly practiced fast break and three-point shooting in the team, although not as accurate as the veteran shooter, but he was more dangerous to run.

Commentator Mike Brin smiled: "Jerry Young started Boykins today, isn't that a bit of a big deal?" His size definitely suffers when defending. The two outside veterans are mainly playing the No. 2 position, but I don't think there will be any problems with going up and making a cameo. I don't know what Jerry thinks. ”

Fraser laughed: "It's a miracle that Boykins can play in the NBA, and Jerry Young always likes to use new players. ”

Knicks starters: Sprewell, Houston, Bowen, Ben Wallace, Ewing.

Van Gundy also changed lineups, with the "Mad Men" making a cameo at point guard and fielding a big man lineup, with Larry Johnson leading the bench offense. Four people can shoot, and Big Ben is responsible for defense, blocks and rebounding.

This season, Big Ben played 35 minutes, replacing Oakley's original role with the Knicks, averaging 6.4 points, 11.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.3 steals and 2.3 blocks per game.

Fans booed Ewing, which is also related to Big Ben's excellent performance, many people feel that the two are not suitable to play together, Big Ben is better than Ewing in the penalty area, but he often has to go out to prevent blocking and dismantling.

Van Gundy smiled a little when he saw the Raptors lineup.

Do you think you can win every surprise attack? Who can a 165CM player stop?

O'Neal Jr. jumped to win, and the game began, Carter received the ball and passed to Boykins, and the three pulled away, and O'Neal Jr. made a cover outside the three-point line in the middle to block Sprewell.

Boykins dribbled on the right side, saw O'Neal Jr. come up, deftly turned to the middle, completely got rid of the defense, Ewing didn't have time to lower his center of gravity, he saw the opponent quickly shoot the ball, and rushed past him, dexterous like a black cat.

No one had time to make up for it, and Boykins scored on a layup. 2 to 0.

The Knicks attacked, Boykins followed Bowen on the right baseline, Christie played against Sprewell, Carter defended Houston, and man marked.

Van Gundy was immediately depressed, Bowen has never practiced ball-handling offense since joining the Knicks, and he generally only stands in the bottom right corner and waits for opportunities on the offensive end, except for picking up leaks, and does not even go to the left.

Bowen played well in '98, and the Knicks kept that position and no longer let Johnson play small forward. But Bowen's scoring ability is too poor, and it is not a good chance against Boikins.

Sprewell held the ball in the middle and Ewing blocked and dismantled, Jumaine changed defense and blocked the breakthrough route in time, the ball was distributed to the middle, Ewing took the ball to respond, Houston and Big Ben on the left side covered and received the ball, and O'Neal Jr. also changed defense quickly.

Zhu Meiyin is a small forward and plays a big forward, even if he is inexperienced, the defense is better than many veterans.

Ben Wallace cut in the air, Carter defended, Houston passed the ball, and Big Ben couldn't get deep into the basket.

There are currently two recognized swingman hunks in the league, one is Margety and the other is Carter. THE 198CM CARTER WEIGHS 100 KILOGRAMS AND HAS STRONG UPPER AND LOWER BODY STRENGTH.

Big Ben and Johnson, Oakley, and Ewing have learned low-post footsteps, because of poor shooting, the offense is still very bad, he relies on Carter's hook hand, the action is completely deformed, and the ball bounces far away and is grabbed by O'Neal Jr.

The Raptors battled in a positional battle, with Christie and Jumaine pulling away from the right.

Boykins dribbled the ball over half court and passed to Carter, ran to the bottom corner of the left side, Carter faced Bowen in the middle to protect the basketball with his back, and Boykins ran back on the left side, relying on O'Neal Jr. to cover away from Sprewell, and received the ball at 70 degrees on the left side for a three-point shot.

There was no interference, Ewing was too slow to switch defenses, and Boykins hit a near-open three-point shot to make it 5-0.

Mike Brin shouted, "Three-pointer, BANG!" ”

Fraser was surprised: "Jerry Young actually arranged for Boykins to attack in the opening game, and he really threw it, and under the cover of his teammates, his size offense has an advantage, and Ewing can't keep up." ”

Not only can't Ewing keep up defensively, but also offensively. Single-handedly, Jumaine was not resolute, the air cut was too slow after the block, and if Sprewell attracted the defense and if he could go down the middle, Christie would be difficult to defend.

When Ewing slowly ran to the basket, O'Neal Jr. on the weak side let go of Ben Wallace and formed a bag under the basket.

O'Neal Jr. jumped the ball out for the second time, Carter grabbed the backcourt rebound, turned around and dribbled to the frontcourt, and stopped in front of the right three-point line to meet Houston to shoot a three-pointer.

The ball was deflected off the ball, but the block was dodged, and the Raptors counterattacked so neatly, and Ben Wallace grabbed the rebound.

The Raptors' defense is average, but the Knicks don't play counterattacks, slowing down and waiting for Ewing to settle down. Once the positional battle falls, the big book is not of much use.

When Yang Rui was with the Knicks, he repeatedly emphasized that Ewing and Wallace could not play together, and now no one reminds Van Gundy. These two people are together, not only attacking, but also defending to be discounted.

The Pistons' double Wallace, Rashid moves quickly and can defend pick-and-rolls, and Big Ben is responsible for resisting and grabbing rebounds. Now Ewing is slow to defend and dismantle, how can Big Ben go out and grab rebounds under the basket? When he encountered the opponent's outside convulsions, he was directly shot to death.

The player passed back and forth without a chance, and Ewing misplaced Christie after covering and scored a jumper. 5 to 2.

There was only sporadic applause from the audience, and the goal was neither beautiful nor easy.

The Raptors positional players pulled away, and this time Ben Wallace was in charge of the pick-and-roll, keeping up with Boykins, who took a step down the middle and passed back to O'Neal Jr. at 70 degrees on the left.

O'Neill Jr. took the ball without pausing and distributed it to the bottom left corner.

Jumaine ran around 70 degrees from the right side to the bottom left corner to receive the ball, turned to face the frame, and took the ball.

Ewing followed the 203CM Zhu Meiyin was too difficult, watching the opponent jump up near the penalty area and then go out to interfere, too late to jump, three-point goal scored! 8 to 2.

Fraser shouted: "Another one, Zhu Meiin also played, today the Raptors are big and four small, and the speed is very fast!" ”

McBrin said: "Jumeiin is not good at holding the ball, he can shoot from medium to long range, so Ewing is not suitable for him, he is more like a small forward, which is a misalignment. ”

Yang Rui used Zhu Meiin's method, just like Lewis used for magic in his previous life, mainly on the periphery, shorter, faster, and his location is unknown.

The SuperSonics were reluctant to trade Lewis, so Yang Rui chose a replacement who could still play a tactical role in some games.

The Knicks continued to grind the ground, passing the ball back and forth, and there was no space.

Seeing that the 24 seconds were exhausted, Sprewell missed a pull-up jump shot in the face of Jumei, which was not a mismatch at all after the block. O'Neal Jr. grabbed the rebound and quickly countered with the pass.

Christie received the ball and sent a precise long pass, and Boykins got rid of Big Ben in a straight line and scored an easy layup. 10 to 2.

The Raptors' "Hobbit" scored 7 points at the beginning, Van Gundy's face was gloomy and terrible, the opponent's tactics were clear, and the Knicks were suppressed by the odds again.
