465. Win over the Knicks
Lakers starters: Clarkson, Kobe, Liu Ren, Green, Gasol. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Knicks starters: Calderon, Shambaugh, Anthony, Stoudemire, Chandler.
Gasol and Banjani jump ball, although Gasol is also a "big white soft", but he is still much better than Banyani's physical fitness, even if he is more than 30.
The Knicks have one of the biggest shortcomings in this lineup, from point guard to center, only Shambaugh is the top defender, and everyone else is basically just above average.
Only Shambaught is the best defensive lineup level player in the Knicks, and the rest of the defense can only be regarded as average, Stoudemire has a certain defensive ability, but there is no defensive attitude, after all, he has an old knee injury, and he can no longer be covered like he was in the Suns back then, Anthony can defend alone, lateral movement is also good, and the defense is still good when playing power forward, but his outside defense is very bad, after all, his weight is so big.
Overall, the Knicks' defense against the Lakers is completely an ATM.
One of the things that the Zen master regrets most now is not being able to keep Chandler, so he can now only use Banjani as the starting center.
However, the 4-year, 80 million early renewal contract that Chandler demanded was the biggest problem.
Now the players want a new contract, the lion is a big mouth, everyone knows that in 2016, the salary cap will be greatly increased, the contract that the middle class can win in the past is now 10 million, 10 million dare to ask for 20 million, 15 million dare to ask for the top salary.
Although the Knicks owner is rich, and the Knicks are also the most valuable team in the NBA, it is impossible to give Chandler a big contract of 20 million for a center who is already in his thirties and will only defend the center that is still declining rapidly!
So the Knicks' defense is basically determined to be like this.
Fisher's coaching style is the shadow of the Zen master, the Zen master in the past summer, must have opened a small stove for him, taught him the method of coaching the triangle attack, this year Fisher coached the model, and the players united after playing a miraculous season last year, and the overall strength is still very good.
The head coach of the Knicks is Fisher, and the president is a Zen master, so it must be a triangle offense.
In terms of coaching ability, Zen Master is the same as Popovich, a notch higher than other head coaches in the league, and others use triangle offense, all of which are rigid two supergiants and a group of pitchers. Most coaches in the league follow the recipe and can't coach if they don't give him the squad he has to do.
Just give him a bunch of dishes like Zen Master and Popovich, and as long as it's a good dish, he can make you different flavors. Now in the league, Cole and Budenholzer are also a little interesting, especially Cole, a little bit like he wants to replace Popovich.
Having played under the Zen master for so many years and learned some of the essence, Fisher turned the Knicks' offense into a smooth one, the triangle offense was thriving, Anthony's heads-up ability, Stoudemire's accurate mid-range, Calderon's three-pointer, and JR-Smith's unreasonableness......
The Knicks and Lakers had a vigorous battle of offense in the first game of the season.
Not to mention, the Lakers' offense is not as good as the Knicks, Calderon on the Knicks' side is seamlessly linked to Anthony, Stoudemire, Shambaught and JR Smith on the bench, and the other role players are very good and play well offensively.
Although the Lakers' offense is equally good, a large part of their impression of the Knicks is still stuck in the team they abused last season, and they were not so focused at the beginning and were pressed by the Knicks at the beginning.
Fortunately, the Lakers quickly stabilized their position and began to fight against the Knicks with all their might.
I have to say that it is not for nothing that the Knicks can rank second in the East, and the Lakers can only slowly close the point difference when they go all out, and they can't overtake the score in one go.
At the end of the third quarter, the Lakers temporarily trailed the Knicks by one point 79-80.
The game scene was very exciting, and the fans enjoyed watching it.
Liu Ren has played so well this year, there are advantages and disadvantages, the benefits are that his popularity has skyrocketed, the status of the team has improved again, and he has made more money......
The downside is that every team is targeting him, especially the Knicks, a team that has been abused by him, and most of the Knicks' already poor defense is aimed at him alone.
Of course, the Knicks weren't as frantic as the Suns, and they just forced Liu Ren to take fewer shots.
And D'Antoni grasped this characteristic of the Knicks' defense, using Kobe, Nick Young, Green, Gasol, Clarkson, Korver, Antetokounmpo, Whiteside two combinations to deal with the Knicks, Liu Ren became the part that attracted the defense.
After resting for half a month and performing platelet-rich surgery on his knee, Kobe Bryant seemed to be rejuvenated, looking like he was thirty-one or twelve years old, even more fierce than Anthony.
At the end of the third quarter, Bryant had 30 points and 6 assists, and Anthony only had 28 points and 4 rebounds.
Liu Ren had 12 points, 7 rebounds and 10 assists, and only took 8 shots, but many of the balls passed to Kobe and Korver turned into assists.
In the first three quarters, Liu Ren was forced to grab rebounds, defend, pass, and occasionally shoot cold arrows in the middle and long range.
In the final quarter, Antony suddenly switched to his offensive routine.
Now D'Antoni feels that the best way to play is to give the ball to Liu Ren!
In the first three quarters, the Knicks continued to wrap Liu Ren and gave the rest of the Lakers a lot of scoring opportunities, resulting in the Knicks playing so well on offense today but only leading by one point, Fisher began to make adjustments, began to defend his old teammate Kobe Bryant and contracted the inside, and loosened Liu Ren's defense.
Fisher is still too young, and D'Antoni saw through what Fisher was going to do next before Fisher responded, making Liu Ren the main point of attack.
Liu Ren started to fly three points in the fourth quarter!
The Knicks didn't expect Liu Ren to suddenly go berserk, and when Liu Ren hit three three-pointers in a row, the Lakers had already overtaken the score by 5 points!
The Knicks were panicked all of a sudden, although Fisher got the true transmission of the Zen master, but his experience was still a little worse, he didn't know what to do at such a time, he was a big heart player when he was a player, Mr. Key is right, and it is not wrong to be very experienced at critical moments, but it is resolute and decisive when implementing tactics and being accurate at key moments. He rarely encountered the tactics of setting up tactics at critical moments.
The Knicks' original focus on Kobe Bryant's defense was attracted to Liu Ren again, including the defense of the interior contraction.
The Lakers' interior offensive space has become larger!
Liu Ren began to shake off his defenders to shoot inside, forcing the Knicks' defense to shrink again, and Liu Ren shot three points from the outside.
This back and forth drove the Knicks players crazy, they didn't pay much attention to defense, and they couldn't stand it after two more blows, so they simply gave up defense.
Liu Ren was 8 of 12 in the fourth quarter, 5 of 7 three-pointers, and two free throws, scoring 25 points and 6 boards in a single quarter, scoring 37 points, 13 boards and 10 rebounds in the whole game, leading the Lakers to open up the gap in the fourth quarter.
In the end, the Lakers defeated the Knicks 115-105.
