Chapter 141: There is no rookie wall for the strong

Popular recommendation:

With the gradual development of the season, the Knicks did not start a losing streak after losing to the Jazz, but started a new wave of four consecutive victories. 32.6 points, 11.6 assists and 8.2 rebounds.

Lian Dao also slapped the media hard with practical actions and the team's winning streak. He did not encounter the so-called rookie wall. Lian Dao's performance in these four games still showed that he was unstoppable.

These four games have defeated the Atlanta Hawks, Golden State Warriors, Indiana Pacers, and New Jersey Nets.

Except for the Golden State Warriors and New Jersey Nets who beat their opponents by 10 points, the other two games narrowly beat their opponents by 3-5 points.

When playing against the Golden State Warriors, Lian Dao saw Stephen Curry again, but this game he did not start the game, but came off the bench, but he also showed a strong three-point ability.

Although he hasn't fully reached the three-point ability of the peak period, he has already taken a certain embryonic form.

Stephen Curry also made 6 three-pointers in this game.

And Lian Dao made 9 three-pointers.

Lian Dao's 3 ultra-long-range three-pointers also opened up the world for Stephen Curry. It turns out that three-pointers can still be played like this.

Stephen Curry has shot super long three-pointers in the NCAA, but the three-point line of the NCAA is shorter than the three-point line of the NBA, and as the most powerful scorer of Davidson College, he has unlimited potential in the NCAA Right to fire.

However, Stephen came to the NBA is not the case.

The current star of the Warriors is Monta Ellis, who occupies a lot of possessions. Curry, the most rookie, actually does not have much possessions.

As a rookie now, Curry can only endure in the Warriors.

At this point, he is very envious of Lian Dao. As a rookie in 2009, Lian Dao has established himself as the core of the Knicks. He can score 30+ points in every game. It can be said that they are rookies of the 2009 level. Compared with Lian Dao, it's like two levels of players.

The team that Curry most wants to go to is actually the Knicks, but the wings of the butterfly in this life are indeed a bit fierce. The Knicks won the No. 1 pick, so the Knicks in this life did not chase Curry as they did in history.

But at that time, Lian Dao also knew from D'Antoni's mouth that he was very optimistic about this baby-faced point guard. I have to say that D'Antoni is still very good at knowing people.

D'Antoni, who has coached Nash, does not think that Curry's body is very weak. On the contrary, his excellent three-point ability makes D'Antoni think that Curry has more offensive ability than Nash.

Historically, if it weren't for the Warriors to cut off the Hu, Curry might have come to the Big Apple City he was thinking of.

In this game, the mad scientist Don Nelson actually wanted to really see which of the two players had the better three-pointer.

It is obvious that Lian Dao won, which is understandable. Lian Dao's three-pointer talent comes from Stephen Curry, but it comes from his strength in 2012.

And now Curry, his strength is far from as strong as in 2012.

But this time Lian Dao's ultra-long three-pointer also strengthened Curry's confidence, and he was also more sure of the need to develop the ability to develop ultra-long three-pointers.

After the game, the two also shook hands and hugged.

Curry asked Lian Dao about the three-pointer at this time, which was a bit unexpected to Lian Dao, but he still shared with Curry some of his own experience in later media interviews.

Including the speed of the shot, and the confidence to make a decisive three-point shot, etc.

The best is always the one that suits you best. Lian Dao didn’t outline his own experience too much. The two have different positions, body shapes and offensive methods. Curry should have a way that suits him best, and Lian Dao also I don't want to make him take a detour because of myself.

Although, he could go back to his own way when he came back, but the time spent in the middle could not be made up.

In this game, the Knicks also defeated the Golden State Warriors from afar 121:107.

Originally thought that the game against the New Jersey Nets would be a Chinese derby.

Unexpectedly, Yi Jianlian was injured and sat in the auditorium wearing a suit.

At the beginning of this season, Yi Jianlian's state is still very good.

He also scored a double-double of 17 points and 12 rebounds in the season opener.

In the second game, he also scored 12 points + 5 rebounds.

But I didn't expect to be injured accidentally when playing against the Charlotte Bobcats.

If it weren't for Lian Dao's system, Yi Jianlian should be one of the most talented basketball players in China.

In his rookie season, Yi Jianlian averaged 12+6 per game with a 50% shooting rate and won the Rookie of the Month award.

At that time, many fans also had high hopes for Yi Jianlian, but he was injured.

After returning from injury, he also fell out of the ranks of starting players.

Playing time has been drastically reduced.

After coming to the Nets, Yi Jianlian broke out again and secured his starting position, but he was injured again this season.

Fortunately, the injury is not serious, but he will be absent for about a month and a half.

At the end of the game, the Knicks also defeated the New Jersey Nets 118:105 this time.

After the game, Yi Jianlian was also the host, and he originally wanted to invite Lian Dao to dinner, but because they had a back-to-back game the next day, they had to pack up and return to New York immediately, so the meal was put on hold.

But the two still used the short time to communicate.

Before leaving, Lian Dao still reminded Yi Jianlian to pay attention to the protection of the body and the communication with teammates.

After these four games are over, the next game for the Knicks will be a little uncomfortable.

Their opponents in the next two games are the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers.

The elders of the two east and west.

Moreover, this game against the Celtics is still back-to-back.

After these two games are: Sacramento Kings, Denver Nuggets, Orlando Magic, Phoenix Suns.

Except for the Saramento Kings of these six teams, none of the other teams is a weak team.

Needless to say, the Boston Celtics, the Big Three, the iron-blooded wolf king Garnett, the undead warrior Pierce, the three-point shooter Junzi Ray, and the point guard Rajon center Rondo.

If it weren't for his height, Rajon Rondo would definitely be an excellent center and an organization center if he was taller in terms of his ability to predict rebounds.

After Garnett was injured and reimbursed last season, he came back this season. Although his state has declined, he can still average 13.5 points and 7.6 rebounds per game.

But his average blocks per game has indeed declined, which also shows that although his dominance in the interior is still very strong, he is no longer the wolf king he was back then.

Paul Pierce is still playing steadily this season, as if it is still the truth.

Ray Allen averaged 5 three-pointers per game and shot 36.3%. Although it has declined compared to last season, he is still the strongest outside support for the Celtics.

The outside world is not optimistic about the Knicks in this game Not only the outside world, even the local media and fans in New York are not optimistic.

Not only is the overall strength gap too different, but it is also back to back.

Although Millsap has performed well recently, it is really impossible to limit Garnett.

The only advantage the Knicks have in this regard is Lian Dao.

Although Paul Pierce's performance is still stable, they do not believe that the 32-year-old Paul Pierce can defend the speed impact of Lian Dao's fastest first step.

But there are some differences in other positions.

It is not unreasonable for fans and the media to be pessimistic, but there are also fans who are optimistic about the Knicks, thinking that the Knicks are not without the possibility of winning.

The Celtics lineup is indeed strong, but that is relative to the playoffs and the inside-based and slow-moving teams.

For a team like the Young Guards and a team that focuses on running and bombing, the Celtics' winning percentage is very low.

After all, a group of old comrades in their 30s can't run fast.

Of the five starters, only Rajon Rondo and Kendrick Perkins are in their 20s, and the others are all over 32.

Even the bench lineup has two main bench members who are over 30 years old.

Therefore, once facing a fast-break, run-and-gun team, it would be a disaster for the Celtics.

As for the game against the Celtics, there is only one way to win, and that is: run!

In this regard, some fans believe that D'Antoni is an expert, and he will make the most correct tactical arrangements.

Moreover, the average starting age of the Knicks' main players is no more than 25 years old.

However, these are the imaginations of some Knicks fans now.
