The Knicks were not in a hurry, and Coach Woodson was not urging, but kept gesturing to the players on the sidelines to play tactics. Li Muhua gradually slowed down the rhythm.

The fight was very anxious.

In the first quarter, both sides kept making tentative attacks.

Anthony and Shupet have always been the main offensive points of the players, while Li Muhua often supports the ball and transfers it through changes in the strong and weak sides.

In the first quarter, the Knicks and Raptors scored 32:32.

In the second quarter, the competition of the substitute lineup.

The Knicks began to play more low-post tactics, and Anthony finally started to play technically. At this time, the Raptors' outside touch declined.

As the core, Anthony has established a leading advantage by scoring consecutively.

Not long after the start of the second quarter, the Raptors began to speed up.

The first to speed up was Lowry, and the small steel cannon rushed forward.

Such a fight, but the Knicks were very uncomfortable, and there were loopholes in the perimeter defense, which made the Raptors play a wave.

Li Muhua played at 5 minutes into the second quarter.

At the very beginning, Li Muhua pushed the frontcourt at a snail's pace, and then used the pick-and-roll to go straight to the flank. With the running of the players on both sides, the strength and weakness changed instantly. The weak side missed JR Smith completely. Outside the three-point line, JR Smith raised the knife and landed the ball steadily.

Coach Woodson pointed to the situation on the field and said:
"Look at the ball just now. This is LI's golf quotient. He didn't choose the middle distance. Instead, he made a strong and weak offensive screen with JR Smith. They cooperated very well!"

Anthony made a different opinion from the side:
"Actually, I think he should go deeper and get into the range of the basket to facilitate our success rate. If there is a problem with the touch on the outside, then we are quite passive."

"Rudy Gay and the others have already defended the basket. After entering, I am worried that they will easily make mistakes!"

Coach Woodson shook his head, but said nothing more.

After all, the position is different, and the style of play and means are not always the same. If Anthony looks at it from his point of view, it is undoubtedly correct, but it is obviously more reluctant for the point guard to play like this.

After Li Muhua played, he still focused on connecting teams.

The reason is very simple. The core is not to absolutely attack, but to shoot again when the situation is not good. Now the players feel relatively stable and actively run. If the point guard keeps playing by himself, his teammates will definitely be too lazy to run. .

Because it's useless to run more, if no one passes the ball, it's still a woolen run.

Rudy Gay was crazy.

No way, when other players are restricted, Rudy Gay, as the cornerstone of the team, can only choose to shoot by himself, increasing shots and singles.

It's just that the offensive end stagnated, but the Knicks found an opportunity for a fast break. Li Muhua and JR Smith made a layup and hit a goal respectively.

The Knicks once again widened the score gap.

Halftime break.

In the Knicks locker room, Woodson kept talking tactics to Anthony and Li Muhua.

"LI, I discussed it with Cameron just now, maybe you can't see it from your perspective, if you are more thorough, I mean hit the basket, is it the fifth position and the fourth position at the same time? Is there a chance?"

"Maybe the situation will not be too good!"

Li Muhua frowned: "I thought about it just now, but I found that the second and third positions have missed a lot of open opportunities. If we scored from the outside, we might win the game earlier."

"That's true. I think our scoring tactics need to be changed. We can use the simplest way to break the double-team, such as when playing against the Heat."

Anthony interjected.

I still can't forget LeBron James' championship last year, and I have a big heart.

After all, they were all students in the same grade, and because of the relationship between the No. [-] pick and the No. [-] spot, the winners were divided into winners and losers.

Anthony seemed to feel that he was a bit of a demon, and smiled embarrassedly: "You understand my mood, but I am very upset to see the Raptors. They use breakthroughs to threaten our low post. We can actually play more flexibly. How are they strong? Just start from anywhere, which can destroy their confidence. Of course, if LI throws a few more outside shots, I don’t think it will be so tiring.”

"Ah, I don't want to!"

"Don't worry, I haven't finished yet. We have three shooters on the outside. If I play again, we will have four people on the outside. This outside offensive lineup is fine, but there is no defense, or the defense is very poor. I'm worried that if this happens, Tyson will be turned into a sieve, so why don't we use defense to suppress them!"

Coach Woodson interrupted and rejected Anthony's suggestion: "That kind of offense is not suitable for the Knicks. The rebounding pressure will fall directly on you and Tyson. If I can, I would rather put Kent on the court. The kid's defense Really good rebounding and screen work!"

"Well, I just want to be faster on offense!"

Anthony admitted the reason for his impatience. Several times it was because of the delay in winning the game that led to the final collapse.

"Actually, Cameron, if you think about it carefully, we are a strong team. If we relax our defense, the situation may be even more unfavorable for our next game. I will do more support here, which is more realistic than falling to the low position!"

If you have different opinions, you should speak them out in time, there is no need to hide them.

There are many people who can call the shots on the Knicks, Anthony, Li Muhua and Kidd.

Almost everyone has a different understanding of how to play.

This also caused nothing to tear each other apart and find the correct tactical direction.

Li Muhua weakened the low position of his core and transferred more ball power through support, so that everyone in the team can find their own advantages.

The rhythm of the third quarter was very fast, and the Knicks played more and more smoothly.

What followed was Rudy Gay's crazily hitting the iron, and DeRozan, this old boy has not been idle, and began to compete with Rudy Gay for the ball.

Lowry is now in a panic, whether to give the ball to DeRozan or Rudy Gay.

Speaking of dedication to the game, the two are similar. The problem is that DeRozan's defense was targeted and he didn't use much force. On the contrary, Rudy did a good job and never softened when it was time to pass to his teammates.

DeRozan's character can be seen from this point.

Always actively ask teammates for requirements, and then play by yourself.

It's not that singles are wrong, but that after the Knicks improved their defensive strength, DeRozan was still acting stupid.

Some brains.

Anthony seldom sends suggestions. After all, he has come to New York, and his previous unhappiness has also taught him to be silent.It's more about urging other players.

No matter in any team, Anthony is always a qualified boss.
