Jeremy Lin coached by top coaches

Chapter 630 Troubled
45:45!After Tucker hit a three-pointer, the two teams tied!As the competition continues to heat up, the most exciting section is about to begin!The audience is looking forward to this moment!The score in the last quarter of the first half was finally fixed at 67:57!
Obviously the Knicks did a good job of preparing for the following games.Leading the opponent by 10 points in the two quarters, at least at the beginning of the third quarter, they can have a certain advantage against the Rockets!

"I don't think Kanter can continue to play. In the fourth quarter, the team still needs him to play against Houston." Three assistant coaches wanted to chat with Chen about the next game.Then the four of them started discussing on the sidelines.Chen straight to the point and expressed his thoughts.

"I feel that maintaining the advantage is still the top priority of our team. In the third quarter, we will face the most powerful lineup in Houston." Rogge immediately said to his coach.

"If we fight too hard with them at this time, we will basically lose this game! But if Kanter is put in the final quarter, there are still some opportunities. Today the Rockets have a strong impact on the inside. And Kanter is a good scorer. hands, but the first thing we need to ensure is his physical fitness.”

In the end, the teaching assistants agreed with Chen.However, Chen also replaced Beasley in the position that he wanted Doug to play according to the ideas of the assistants.The stakes are heightened, but it's okay for Chen.And from Beasley's point of view, if he has a good score in the third quarter, then it would be great for the team!
The Knicks team that played in the third quarter were O'Quinn, Porzingis, Beasley, Hardaway Jr., and Ntilikina!The Rockets are Anderson, Anthony, Ariza, Paul and Harden!

The ultimate showdown that the audience wants to see will finally be staged in this section!

".Ntilikina shooting guard, if you organize on the court, I will replace you immediately. The organization of the team will be completed by Hardaway Jr. and Porzingis. And the last thing to say, don't be polite on offense This section."

The players know what it means to say that.Both Beasley and Porzingis are more excited now!If the opponent's current lineup can continue to maintain the team's lead, then at least psychologically, the possibility of winning this game will increase a lot~
"Ariza, Anderson and Paul do a good job defensively in the game. The offensive efficiency must be maintained. The identities of Paul and Harden can be switched at will. What is needed is to ensure the offensive efficiency of the entire game."

D'Antoni was still holding the tactical board and talking about his thoughts relatively quietly.The players around listened very carefully.The loud cheers at the scene didn't bother them to listen to the team's coach's arrangement in the third quarter.

After getting the ball from O'Quinn, Hardaway Jr. slowly came to the front court, and the fans at the scene began to shout "defense".Paul took a step forward. At this time, Hardaway II decisively changed direction and used Beasley's cover to immediately jump up and hit a 2-pointer! 69:57!

At present, if the team focuses on offense, its strength is still relatively impressive.O'Quinn's ability on this side is slightly weaker, but his physical fitness is still relatively good.The Rockets are still making technical reservations.

In this quarter, Capela should actually be allowed to play.But D'Antoni didn't do that.His claim is offensive.Because although the Rockets have the advantage in player quality now, they still need to pay more attention.

If the other party opens it, it becomes difficult to control the scene.

Anthony slowly went to the front court and observed the current lineup.Porzingis has been staring at him ready to defend immediately!Suddenly Harden ran over to face Ntilikina and hit a three-pointer directly! ! 69: 60!

The Rockets are currently a team that can compete with the Golden State Warriors in the league!So they are quite confident.Beasley gets the ball and passes it to Hardaway Jr.The latter missed a three-pointer, and O'Quinn passed the ball to Porzingis after getting the rebound.The latter dunks directly to score points! 71:60!

Paul passed the ball quickly across half court and directly to Anthony.Anthony still hit a three-pointer under Porzingis' block! 71:63!

As Porzingis' long-range 2-pointer came out of the net, Ariza immediately got the rebound and passed to Harden.Ntilikina took off and sent Harden flying in the air. It would be great if it was a basketball.
At this time, Harden JDZ's three souls possessed him and fell to the ground immediately~ The referee blew the whistle directly.So Magneto stood next to the free throw line and easily hit three free throws. 71:66!The point difference suddenly narrowed to 5 points!

Ntilikina was visibly agitated.After receiving the pass from Hardaway Jr., he accelerated and passed Harden, then turned around to see that there were not many opportunities, and then passed the ball reluctantly to Porzingis on the outside.The latter immediately hit a three-pointer, which made him a little more comfortable. 74:66!

Anderson immediately returned a three-pointer after receiving Harden's pass! 74:69!

The fans at the scene immediately became crazy!The Rockets are in great shape now!After Beasley's three-pointer from the Nets, Ariza immediately got the basketball and went to the frontcourt. After the fans held their breath, they saw the desired result!Three-point hollow into the net! 74:72!

Chen asked for a timeout ahead of time and replaced Ntilikina with Jack.But the final score of the third quarter was 94:96!Although the Knicks have been leading the opponent by 2 points for a while.But in the end, the cooperation of Paul and Harden reversed the score!
127：114！在第四节一上来火箭这头马上打出了一波6：0小高潮和11：0的小高潮，这样陈直接将年轻的球员放到了赛场上。纽约这头还想打，但是毕竟已经没有什么能力将比分拽回来了。

Jack's physical fitness has declined seriously after the third quarter.There is no player on the team who passes the ball as well as him.Like Ramon and Ntilikina, who still suffered from the Rockets in the last few minutes, basically made a lot of turnovers.

The subsequent games also confirmed Chen's thoughts.Ntilikina has physical fitness and speed, but he still has less experience on the court.Harden got three fouls on him
And the frequent turnovers of the players behind does not mean that they are bad.But in a contest with such a team, it may be lower than the opponent both at this time and in experience.

"You played well~ I didn't sarcasm you. It was really good. The first three quarters dragged the opponent until the fourth quarter. If we meet them next time, we won't let them win so easily." Chen returned to the locker room and said Talking to his players.

本场比赛卡佩拉拿到12分7篮板4助攻！安东尼19分9篮板6助攻！阿里扎10分5篮板3助攻，保罗22分4篮板7助攻，哈登37分6篮板4助攻！周琦7分3篮板2助攻。

It can be said that the Rockets' prevention before this game has worked.Their true strength is not revealed until the end.Harden also exploded in the next game!In the team today, Anderson, Ariza and Tucker did not play very well.But their strength is still very strong!

尼克斯这头坎特15分10篮板5助攻！波尔津吉斯21分6篮板5助攻！比斯利17分5篮板3助攻！小哈达威17分3篮板7助攻！杰克9分2篮板12助攻！

The most tired person in the audience should be Jack.There was basically no rest in the previous games.Chen also tried his best in today's game.If Jack said he was 5 years younger, who might win today's game!
There was still confusion among the players after Porzingis went off the court.This doesn't mean they want to.Instead, they were hit by the Rockets' terrifying attack power!Sometimes the opponent's crazy offense is really like the Warriors!

Many of them have three-point ability!Eric on the guard and 3D players Tucker, Anderson, Zhou Qi, Ariza, Anthony can all shoot three-pointers!There are also two star guards, Paul and Harden!
Boshen's mood swings in the second half of the game were not small.You could tell he really wanted to win the game.But sometimes my teammates don't realize it, and the Rockets sometimes swarm Porzingis directly.

An Anthony's words are now more difficult for Porzingis to parry.Moreover, sometimes two or three double teams made him suffer even more.Pass the ball, teammates can't make a shot, and the opponent can always get the rebound quickly!Then chasing is a three-pointer!
After taking the round, the New York side immediately couldn't keep up with the rhythm.To play with such a team, one must have several players who are more accurate in three-pointers.The other is the strong confrontation ability of the players, and the other is the team's ability to cooperate.Obviously, the Knicks now only have three-pointers from Hardaway Jr. and Porzingis.

Although it is not too surprising to lose this game.But the Knicks' three-game winning streak came to an end.It was as if the halo on his body disappeared all of a sudden.This game has only been played lightly in recent news.

The description of the Rockets is quite a lot.It feels as if the Knicks' season is just a flash in the pan.But just like the previous three consecutive losses, the mood of the players was not quite what Chen thought.

Everyone acted like nothing happened after playing.In the evening, they talked about where to go to play~ Chen didn't join them.He lives in a hotel now.I have no plans to rent a house yet.The salary is enough to cover the expenses of the hotel.

Besides, it's a contract with no guarantees.Maybe one day a new coach will be found and let Chen leave directly.Apparently renting a house would not be worthwhile.One month's rent isn't found yet right now.At least half a year.

Still training, after the game, Chen did not express any opinion on what Li did to him at that time.He didn't think about it, and after being mentioned, he still stated that he would not give his own thoughts on this matter.

What surprised the team was that Chen took the initiative to tell the management not to punish Li after returning.That's the end of the matter.Li then pretended that he was sick and it would take at least three months.Chen immediately gave him the leave.

Li's personal ability is still good.It's just that he did a lot of things that he thought were right at the beginning of this season.But things didn't go the way he thought.Chen did not leave, and the team began to win.From the two-game losing streak at that time to now the winning percentage is 50%, ranking No.8 in the Eastern Conference.

What makes everyone a little unbelievable is that the Cleveland Cavaliers are now tightly ranked tenth in the Eastern Conference.They just lost another game.Now speaking, there are some hidden dangers in their team, which have appeared in the previous few seasons.

Don't make the playoffs just because they are like this.Yes, and in a way that has been sweeping opponents until meeting the Warriors. Wade's basic salary trip to Cleveland this season is a bright spot.Rose left the Cavaliers and has not yet signed with any team, which has also attracted some attention.

But something is surprising about what's happening on the Cavaliers' side of the court right now.Missed shots and made frequent turnovers.Sometimes James is not in a good state on the court, mainly because he is not in a good mood.

In addition, his playing time was shortened.Because of his age and physical fitness, sometimes LeBron feels powerless.It would be great if I could go back to when I was young. When the team was playing poorly, I could take over the game and win a few games or lose so badly.

But now he can only sit on the bench and watch his teammates mess up a game, and then continue training and wait for the next game.

At present, what is said more in the media is that the team is still in a state of running-in.Wade's playing time is much less than that of his previous Bulls.And the team has high expectations for him.

Sometimes you can go down without even getting into the state.And Thomas Jr.'s teammates were somewhat uncomfortable when passing the ball.The difference from the preseason is that Thomas Jr. clearly feels that this is not Boston, and he needs to adapt to the team again.

Moreover, the team's salary after trading to Thomas Jr. is not the highest salary among guards in the team.Both Iman and Korver have higher salaries in a single year than him.And obviously he played star-level data when he was in the Celtics!

So now he has to continue to maintain a good state here.When he left, the team traded him away, but this made the Celtics fans at the time think that he had "betrayed".Gives the treatment that James left Miami that year
At that time, little Thomas endured the pain of leaving his relatives and continued to fight against his opponents!Maybe the crazy fans forgot that at the time, and they didn't figure out who made him go.But Thomas Jr.'s personal data cannot be erased!
He has become a superstar in the hearts of many people!But there may still be a long way to go for him.

Anyway, there is no problem for the opponent to enter the playoffs.Why don't the Knicks win for a while at this time~ Chen thought while watching the video of the recent Cavaliers game.

James and Love have nothing to say about their abilities now.Thomas Jr. is now averaging 19.3 points, 1.6 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game!His average playing time is 28.6 minutes.There are a lot of mistakes right now.

In addition to Little Emperor and Love, he scored the most points in the team!Korver is ranked fourth, he can now get 11 points, 2.4 rebounds and 0.6 assists!Everything looks good but why can't we win the game?
Later, I found that in the back of the game, sometimes in the second quarter, they would suddenly not be able to score many points!After James is getting older this season, his average playing time is almost 40 minutes!
It is currently the highest playing time in the past nine years. The average playing time of 38.9 minutes quickly surpassed the time data in 2009.

Cleveland is still very strong in the previous game!But there may be good opportunities waiting for the Knicks in the second and third quarters.

"Maybe in the first half we have to keep the defensive intensity at a certain height. O'Quinn, you double-team James at that time, don't fight hard with Tristan. If it doesn't work, pass the ball immediately. Noah in the first quarter The game is up to you on defense and rebounding. Ntilikina and Ramon, you have to be careful about Thomas’ steals. What’s more, the cooperation in this game is still the first.”

Chen knows that if he competes with the opponent's personal ability, he basically can't win, but in terms of playing team basketball, the opponent seems to be weaker now.

Come to Quicken Loans Arena.After a certain period of warm-up, the game will start immediately!It even feels like being in San Antonio tonight~
The starters for the Knicks in this game are Noah, O'Quinn, Doug, Ramon and Ntilikina.The order of the Cavaliers is Love, Tristan, James, Thomas Jr., and Iman.

Love gets the ball first and passes it quickly to James.The latter jumped up and hit a three-pointer!The scene immediately cheered!After receiving a pass from Noah, Ramon moved slowly to the frontcourt.

Ntilikina took the basketball and rushed directly to the basket in the air, but Tristan gave him a big cap!James got the pass from Thomas Jr. and immediately passed the ball to Iman on the other side.The latter hesitated for a while and went straight to the layup to score 2 points! 5:0!

Chen quietly watched the game.The Cavaliers don't want to lose like this now!Then maybe the Cavaliers facing New York today may be different from the previous ones.

After getting the basketball, Thomas Jr. took the ball to the frontcourt and made a direct three-pointer without defense! 8:0!

"Maybe it's a bit simple to think about." Chen thought and immediately signaled for a timeout.

"Noah, Doug, and Ramon do a good job of defending. Kanter and Hardaway Jr. are the main offensive points in this section. Remember not to entangle with each other too much. Don't be too reluctant in the offense, and timely and teammates It may be better to score in cooperation. Look here, these two points and this direction need to take more offense.”

After returning to the court, I found that the Cavaliers replaced Iman with Korver!It seems that the opponent really wants to fight New York in this quarter.

Hardaway Jr. took the ball to the front court, and Korver immediately broke through and scored 2 points for a layup! 8:2!He has good speed and rhythm, and the Cavaliers also feel that the strength of the Knicks has strengthened.

O'Quinn's words were restricted by Tristan after playing today!The opponent's defensive ability is really strong!And what Chen asked Kanter to play power forward today is to let him focus as much as possible on offense!

This guy Kanter is now a player with a salary of tens of millions, not to say that he is given casually.When he was in the Jazz, he was used as a core player and started training.After arriving at the Thunder, they can also get certain points.But at that time belonged to an excellent blue-collar player.

And now he has become the core player of the Knicks!After coming to New York, the effect immediately appeared!And in the online comments about him, it is said that Kanter's efficiency has become higher now!

A game now averages 26.1 points, 13.7 rebounds and 10.2 assist in 1 minutes per game!Playing as a center restricted part of his offense, but the number of rebounds rose relatively quickly.

James took the basketball, Kanter immediately got the rebound and passed the ball to Hardaway Jr. after the three-pointer missed, Ramon got the basketball in the frontcourt and asked for a foul on Korver!Standing at the free throw line made 2 of 1 free throws. 8:3!

Thomas Jr. accelerated past the opponent in front of Ramon and then quickly crossed halftime!When Hardaway Jr. and Doug immediately went to guard him, Korver took the basketball not far from him and directly hit a three-pointer! 11:3!

Although Chen knew that the possibility of him scoring a goal was not small at this time, he was still a little surprised.This player is really a shooter.

Doug received Ramon's pass in halftime, and Kanter got the ball and singled Tristan with 2 points and hit the basket! 11:5!After receiving the pass from the little emperor, Love immediately jumped up to catch the basketball and was directly cut off by Doug!
After Ramon got the ball, he passed the ball to Hardaway Jr. decisively.Just after halftime, after Korver had arrived, Kanter took the basketball and immediately passed the ball to Ramon, who directly hit the net with a three-pointer! 11:8!

Some players on the Knicks have now tasted the sweetness of scoring after cooperation more than once.In a team, if a single player wants to express himself too much or want to quickly brush up his statistics, unless his offensive efficiency is also good.Otherwise, it will affect the cooperation of the team.

If you cooperate, you must first think of passing the ball for your teammates. As for scoring, everyone complements each other.If you beat individuals too much, then the team's winning percentage may drop faster.But if they cooperate, maybe the players are relatively average in scoring.However, the effect on the scene is quite obvious.

At least it will give the opposing team an impression that this team is not easy to play.Noah got a rebound after Thomas Jr. stepped on the line for 2 points.Halfway through Hardaway Jr. received the ball, Kanter came over and got the ball and scored 2 points with a toss! 11:10!

James courtside serves to Thomas Jr.Tristan took the basketball and found that there was no chance and immediately passed the ball to LeBron.Facing Doug's defense, he immediately hit the board with a three-pointer and went into the basket! 14:10!

His desire to attack is very strong today!After Hardaway Jr. got the basketball, he passed the opponent with a quick start from Korver, then used his own rhythm to avoid a player and immediately jumped up!
