Deron and singles Joe were a little too obsessed with their personal abilities, but ignored the role of other teammates, allowing the Knicks to find an opportunity to double-team.

Although the Nets are new, their players are strong.

When the Knicks faced the strength of the Nets, the role players contributed a lot.

Coach Woodson changed his previous state, and the encouragement had an effect.

As the core of the team, Li Muhua tried his best to cooperate with Woodson's work in the lineup of role players, and found that the coach was not as good as he imagined. Whether it was offensive organization or assisting defense, Coach Woodson's arrangements were always just right.

From this point of view, Woodson is really suitable as the head coach of the Knicks at present.

The preseason has maintained a complete victory.

The regular season of the 12-13 season kicked off.

The schedule originally arranged by the league was for the Knicks and the Nets to play the opening derby in New York. Who knew that natural disasters would come and Hurricane "Sandy" would come, and no one could do anything but cancel it temporarily.

On November 11, the New York Knicks ushered in the first opener of the new season at home against the Heat.

Not to mention the strength of the team, the Heat have not changed much this season, mainly because no team is willing to trade with the Heat, so they can only sign one Ray Allen. Of course, Manager Zhan's name has resounded throughout the league.

The introduction of Ray Allen has enriched the Heat's tactics and can greatly expand the space.

Many people are very surprised. James is also No.1 in the league anyway, why not introduce young players, but also Ray Allen, there are quite a lot of three-point shooters in the league.

Hearing this kind of remarks, Li Muhua didn't take it seriously. After all, there are many masters who know football, so there is no way to say this in front of the media.

The Knicks lined up according to the previous lineup, starting with Anthony, Li Muhua, Thomas, Chandler and Brewer.

Stoudemire was actually placed on the bench.

When Coach Woodson announced the starting list in the locker room, Stoudemire almost lost his depression.

In fact, it is easy to understand that Stoudemire's role against the Heat's Big Three is extremely limited.

Of course, Stoudemire's expression was not good, and he babbled beside Li Muhua: "How is it possible? Could it be that Kent defends better than me? Really, did Mr. Mike make a mistake?"

Stoudemire never confronted his deficiencies on the defensive end.

Li Muhua shook his head, and leaned into Xiaosi's ear:

"Amare, you have to pay attention to defense. This is still the regular season. If the defensive system cannot be established, we may stop at any time. Understand, the team needs you, but what they need is you on both ends of the offense and defense!"

When Li Muhua said it, Xiao Si looked at it in surprise, and said nothing more.

As far as the Knicks lineup is concerned, coach Woodson also took a lot of pressure to put veteran Thomas in the starting lineup. After all, the Knicks now do not lack experienced veterans.

After announcing the roster, Coach Woodson called Thomas to the door to give instructions: "Kent, your job is not easy. Cover Cameron and Tyson well. When the Heat attack the inside, you may be required to do something. You must make sure that we have enough protection space under the basket, don't worry about fouls, if the situation is not right, I will replace you immediately!"

Thomas nodded, and the head coach was willing to explain this in private, showing how much he attaches importance to inside defense.

Regarding the use of inside players, Coach Woodson has already explained to Li Muhua, so Li Muhua knows that this is a tactical requirement.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it's not how good Thomas is, nor how bad Stoudemire is, but when dealing with the Heat, Thomas' role in the interior can cover up the Knicks' flaws on the defensive end.

Li Muhua also understood that this lineup was built to break out of the Eastern Conference.

Before the start of the new season, when rehearsing tactics, Thomas showed a strong inside defensive ability.

The team has a lot of rookies, and these so-called rookies are temporary strength added during the off-season.

Facing the veteran, Stoudemire didn't dare to lose his temper, so he could only accept Coach Woodson's arrangement. In fact, he knew his flaws in his heart, but he didn't have a place in the team for a while.

Coach Woodson has gradually gained the right to speak in the team.

The game officially begins.

The Knicks lineup can be said to be truly capable of both offense and defense, with the outside core as the tactical starting point, and the inside for support and offense.Coach Woodson still focuses on defensive ability, reducing the running of outside players and increasing defensive positions inside. When practicing tactics, the core idea is still to hand the ball to the inside to complete.

Among them, Anthony's role is more obvious.

Speaking of offense, Coach Woodson is really not good at it, and he is not as good as D'Antoni, but his defensive achievements are really impressive.

There are Chandler, Wallace, Thomas and others inside. The depth of the lineup can be said to have reached its peak this season. In terms of defensive strength, few are better than the Knicks.

At the very least, he has the ability to fight against the wind, and he is not afraid to deal with ordinary games at all.

The Heat also made lineup adjustments. Bosh moved to the fifth position. He had a huge advantage at the beginning of the jump ball, and gave the bat to Wade from Chandler.

The Knicks quickly returned to the defensive position.

The Heat attack.

At the beginning, the Heat still used the old style of play. The point guard Chalmers was in charge of holding the ball to the frontcourt, and then he was ready to find someone to pass the ball. Facing Li Muhua, Chalmers couldn't even talk about playing, so he didn't look for someone to pass the ball to. Not happy.

After throwing it to James, James singled Anthony. When Thomas helped defend, James immediately stopped the jumper.

Thomas and Anthony tried their best to interfere. James played the ball hastily and hit the jumper.

This is James' third year with the Heat. He signed with the Heat for 4 years, and the last year is a player option. It can be said that James decides his future.

Pat Riley had no choice but to accept such a signing.

Because everyone knows that James's status determines that it is impossible to end a team forever. One wants to build a dynasty, and the other wants to get a few more championship rings.

After winning the championship last season, James has gained a certain historical status. Now it is nothing more than the number of rings, whether he can surpass Jordan, or even establish a dynasty.Many teams are not convinced, and preventing the Heat from defending the title has become the unanimous idea of ​​all teams in the league.

This is the once-in-50-year physical talent, strong enough to go to any team, it may attract everyone's attention, basketball still depends on personal ability.
