Chapter 167 The LED Trio

Seeing that the momentum was not right, Rivers immediately called a timeout again.His arrangement is very simple. It seems that Telfair can no longer believe it. Rondo is still useless, so he can only use Delonte West.

But at this time, the Celtics already felt a little distracted. Their offense made people feel unmotivated.

They had no choice but to hit the ball back again. If the previous attack was blocked, they would naturally hit it back to the point guard, allowing West to find another offensive route.

But things backfired and the ball was cut off by Nate Robinson.

After stealing the ball, Nate rushed forward quickly, Lao Hu followed closely, and David Lee followed behind. It can be said that the Hula guys all ran towards the Celtics' half.

Seeing Hu Lin, 'Little Tudou' didn't hit hard, and immediately split the ball. However, he continued to charge forward after the ball was split. This is a normal tactic.

Lao Hu passed the ball as soon as he caught it, and threw it directly to the basket.

Kuang Ang!

The little potato flew into the air, filling the frame vigorously with both hands!

The point just now made West a little dazed, and he didn't keep up when Nate advanced.And after the ball was lost, the Celtics were a little dazed, as if they were beaten stupidly.

It seems that the Celtics are not as simple as falling behind.

After Nate Robinson performed a wonderful dunk, the Knicks had a 60-44 lead by 16 points.

And as the following game progressed, the Celtics seemed to be completely out of spirit. The players on the field tried again and again, but no one hit it. Even Paul Pierce dropped two three-pointers and failed to make a layup. into the box.

The Knicks took the opportunity to increase the score. Curry, David Lee, Hu Lin, and Nate scored consecutive points with a combination of inside and outside, and their cooperation was very skilled, and the distribution of shots was very even. This attack was originally known for its defense. The Celtics were directly beaten into a sieve.

With 3 minutes left in the third quarter, the Knicks' main players were all replaced, because at this time they had already led 76 to 52 by 24 points, and Coach Tuo could already sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.

In fact, this is "potential". The Celtics are not without strength, but they are completely suppressed by their opponents.In addition, their offense was a bit chaotic. Sometimes this Telfair's mind is not very clear. If he has a chance, this guy has to perform by himself, but most of the time he didn't perform well and made mistakes.

West isn't much better, and he doesn't have enough offensive prowess himself.

As a result, no one is shooting now, and even if they are out of neutral, they will hit the iron. This is really hopeless.

In the fourth quarter, what Thomas did was very simple. He first let the main force go up and beat the opponent fat, and then replaced them all after 3 minutes, leaving only Curry as the main attacker.Even if the opponent sent all the main players, Thomas did not line up other main players to play.

Moreover, this game is not only for Lao Li to lift the ban, Balkman can also play.As soon as he played, he exceeded everyone's expectations. Balkman defended Pierce very well. Of course, Pierce may not have enough motivation at this time. However, this really made this rookie show off his defense for a while. aspects of talent.

Originally, Coach Rivers wanted to struggle for a while, but seeing that the Knicks' substitutes could beat his main players, he gave up this game and prepared for the next one.

To be honest, the Celtics lost this game very uselessly. In their own home court, they had no touch at all, and their momentum made their opponents overwhelmed.The final score was 101 to 77. In other words, in the last nearly 15 minutes of the game, the Celtics themselves only scored 25 points.If you count the previous ones, the data will be even worse.

When the head coaches of the two sides shook hands as usual after the game, Rivers was really helpless on his face.

After losing to the Timberwolves, the Knicks immediately ushered in a big victory. Of course, the whole team was full of joy, after all, they did not lose consecutively.And the Celtics, like the Knicks, are both teams in the Atlantic Division. Defeating such an opponent will be of great help to entering the playoffs.

Many Knicks fans are not only happy because of the victory, but according to the technical statistics after the game, Hu Lin did not score many points in this game, which is the least in recent games, only 20 points, but he won 13 assists, this data is still very dazzling.The key is everyone else. Curry scored 27 points and grabbed 8 rebounds. David Lee scored 25 points and grabbed 11 rebounds.In this way, Hu Lin, Curry, and Lao Li all scored 20 points. The fans thought that these three had the appearance of the Big Three.

Therefore, the fans affectionately called these three people the LED trio, namely the initials of the three names LIN, EDDY, and DAVID.

"I have to say that Thomas still has a certain business mind. Look at the 'LED' trio in New York. This year's Knicks only need to pay about 1100 million dollars for these three guys. What a great value Ah. Compared to other teams in the league, I dare say, I can’t find such a value-for-money combination again!”… CJ posted on the Knicks fan forum.

"LED? It feels very high-tech, yes, I didn't expect it to be so cheap, but next year will be the renewal year for Hu and Li. I don't know what kind of price Thomas will offer to keep these two guys."… …Kent Jones, posted on the Knicks Forum.

"I think they must be at least middle-class or above. They have performed so well this year, and other teams will definitely be jealous. I really praise the Lord for giving Thomas a pair of bole eyes, allowing him to discover so much gold in the low draft. , Amen!" Renee Felton, posted on the Knicks Forum.

"It will definitely not be given to the middle class. If there are no accidents this year, the Knicks' total salary will still exceed [-] million. Although it is better than last year, Thomas will definitely not be so generous, although he is often stupid!"... DT Mai Ernesto, Nix Forum.

"New Yorkers go to hell! My big Celtics will definitely enter the playoffs!"... Anonymous, Knicks Forum.

"There is green residue, everyone, don't let him go!"... CJ.

"Come on! Drive the Boston guys back!"... Kent Jones.

Thus, another Internet war began, the two sides were fighting with each other, and the fight was extremely enjoyable, and all kinds of fresh curse words were produced.

Lao Hu was reading the news on the Internet while chatting with his rich wife. Before he could type a few words, the cell phone rang again, and he seemed to be busy with this guy.

"Hey! I said Tang, what's the matter?" As soon as he saw the call, he knew that his agent was looking for him, and Lao Hu became a little impatient.Recently, Tang has become active again. It seems that Lao Hu's popularity has soared both domestically and internationally.

"Haha! The Nike contract I told you before is settled. They have prepared a 7-year 5000 million contract. How about it? Are you happy?" Regardless of whether Hu Gao is happy or not, Don Michael is very happy. Gu Zi kept laughing there, and Lao Hu wondered if his manager kept a straight face during negotiations.

"Okay, fine, I have no problem." Of course it's okay to have money, and it's a lot of money.

"Let me tell you specifically, the first five years are guaranteed contracts, and the next two years Nike has the right to choose,..." Don Michael started his penetrating tongue, and said on the phone I briefly talked about the details of the contract. Anyway, he is very happy. This contract allows him to earn more than 5 million US dollars a year at least. Can you be unhappy?

"Okay, I know everything."

"Actually, there is another thing to call you. They are going to shoot an advertisement immediately, and the time is set for next Monday and Tuesday. You should not have a game in those two days."

"Okay, no problem."

Next, they briefly chatted about some recent things, such as what kind of girl they met again. Of course, Lao Hu said that he was a gentleman, but he didn't believe it, and so on. After a while, the two ended the call.

"My wife, I'm back." After talking on the phone, Lao Hu immediately put all his energy into the online chat again.

"Whose phone number?" Feng Kuo asked Lao Hu on Qiuqiu.

"Honey, are you jealous?"

"Bah! Who is jealous of you!"

"Dear wife, it's your husband's agent calling. Our family is going to make money again, and it's a lot." Hu Lin said as if offering a treasure.

"what?!"

"Big contract, a lot of money, hehe."

"Oh!" Feng Kuo made a congratulatory expression.

"By the way, wife, what kind of book are you writing?" Lao Hu has always been entangled in this matter.

"Don't tell you!"

"Tell me..."

And so, the nasty relationship between the two began again.

After a big win over the Celtics on Saturday, the Knicks flew back to New York the next day, where they will host the visiting Chicago Bulls.

The Chicago Bulls have made a lot of adjustments this season. The most important change is the introduction of 'Big Ben' Wallace of the Pistons. They signed a four-year $4 million contract. All very notable events.

Moreover, they also hired PJ Brown with the veteran's basic salary. This is a very practical insider veteran, and this gentleman is a hardworking genius, and he has been in good condition.

In addition, the Bulls cut off the Blazers' Aldridge during the draft, forcing the latter to use Tyrus Thomas plus the signing rights of Koriapa to trade for him.

In addition to the original Ruhr Deng, Ben Gordon, Kirk Hinrich, Chris Duhon, Nocioni, and other strong outside players, of course, some of the lesser-known ones can be counted. Yes, such as Sefolosha and Sweetney, but just like that, their lineup is quite interesting.

There are indications that the Chicago Bulls are going to do a big job, and it seems that they want to restore their old glory.

Anyway, they have already hit the door of the house, so there is no need for the Knicks to be afraid, just hit it.
