Chapter 657 The Role of the Answer

"I read your news a while ago. Is your injury better now?" The middle-aged man on the phone asked with concern.

"I'm really sorry at that end. I unexpectedly remembered my injuries over the years. Then you should have seen my appearance at that time. Now I am heading towards the direction of improvement. The doctor told me that at least two Month's time."

"Well, that's good! You make the fans on the Internet very sad. Many people still use you as an example! Every time you hurt, you can stand up again! But from your point of view, it is indeed very good. Not a happy thing," Atkinson said conciliatoryly to the person on the phone in his office.

"Thank you, I'm in a better state now. The past few days felt like time passed very slowly. So what do you mean today?" After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Ross already knew that the man who called him was the current president of operations in Brooklyn. After Atkinson, the two began to chat.

Atkinson never mentioned the purpose of today's call to him.until he finally asked.In the relaxed and sympathetic chat on the other end of the phone, Rose also felt that the other party might offer him a contract, but it was not clear what the contract would be like.

"Then I'll just say it straight. Well, the Nets intend to invite you to join us! But we will not sign you for these two months. In the remaining games, it is now certain that the salary will be more than 350 million US dollars. And it’s basically this number, not too much more. Look at the contract. By the way, there is a guaranteed contract.”

". Thank you for your recognition of me first. But can you give me a few days to think about it?" Rose said slowly.

"Of course~ we don't have too much doubt about your personal ability. And now the Nets also need a guard like you, and what I want to say is that Brooklyn may have relatively big changes this season. I just came here to tell you today, so when will I reply?"

Atkinson, who originally had a low salary in the Magic, unexpectedly got a one-year management contract of 1176 million US dollars after leaving Orlando this season!My heart is somewhat flattered~
And Rose is obviously more grateful to the Nets' current president of operations.Basically, the average price is only around 200 million now.Compared with the one-year $472 million non-guaranteed contract, the Nets' this one may be more affordable.

"Okay, five days later," Rose replied after thinking for a few seconds.He was infected by the other party's relaxed tone today.I'm not so depressed anymore.

"Okay, let's do this first. The Nets will always pay attention to your dynamics. Looking forward to your reply next time." Atkinson hung up the phone.Then I was busy with other things.

33:21!So much has been done in the first quarter!At this time, Chen had already figured out how to deal with the 76ers.It's just that the game after the first quarter is no longer suspended.I hope this will make the other party relax their vigilance.

"Porzingis, you and Kanter switch positions. But don't confront Embiid at the center. Cante should share some defensive and rebounding tasks. Don't be too anxious on the offensive end. Scoring, Beasley and Porzingis are going to be the main scoring points in the second quarter"

Simmons' personal ability is now much higher than before.And the Knicks didn't take much advantage of the guard in the first quarter.

So what Chen means is that he hopes that the Knicks can quickly narrow the point difference on the front line.

In the second quarter, the 76ers Saric and Fultz came to the court respectively.The Nets replaced Lance with Beasley.

Ntilikina took the ball to the frontcourt. Fortunately, Iverson went down in this quarter.But now the opponent's team still has two top picks on the field. Fultz's performance this season is still at the level of a blue-collar guard.

Beasley got the basketball and passed it to Porzingis who was pulled out.The latter made a 2-point jumper directly! 33:23!

Bayless quickly passed halftime, and Embis dunked to score points regardless of Kanter's defense after getting the basketball! 35:23!Kanter was directly knocked out!The scene is already boiling!Some fans feel that it’s not interesting anymore, if there is something important, they want to leave after halftime~
After receiving the serve, Hardaway Jr. passed the ball to Beasley again.The latter jumped up and hit a three-pointer before the Knicks could go back in time! 35:26!

It seems that today's Beasley still has some accuracy!Although not very good defensively, Beasley's personal offense and explosion are still okay.Saric jumped up and missed a three-pointer immediately after receiving a pass from Simmons, and Kanter got the rebound and passed to Ntilikina.

Porzingis caught the basketball at halftime and immediately jumped into the basket with a three-pointer! 35:29!At this time, the 76ers felt that the opponent's style of play had changed.Bayless went to the frontcourt, Embiid got the basketball and dribbled twice, and was directly cut off by Hardaway Jr. after he missed the three-pointer!

Ntilikina immediately took the basketball and went to the front court, suddenly threw the ball up, and Beasley immediately caught the ball in the air and dunked to score! ! 35:31!

"Porzingis needs to use two people to defend this point, and Embiid is fine under the basket. Simmons and Okafor should pay attention to this." After returning from the timeout, the 76ers replaced Saric with Okafor.

Simmons went to the frontcourt and made a direct three-pointer! 38:31!After the opponent's answer went down, the team's defensive state seemed to drop a lot.The Knicks were not affected by the final score of the first quarter at all.

Beasley's offense also pleased Chen Ting.Embiid immediately got the rebound and passed the ball to Simmons quickly after Hardaway Jr.'s three-pointer failed.Fultz in the frontcourt took the basketball and hit a three-pointer! 41:31!

Now I hope that the opponent will not continue the high-intensity confrontation with the Knicks in the third quarter.Otherwise, the New York side may soon be beaten into garbage time by the opponent.

Ntilikina made a fake move in front of Fultz and shook his opponent away. After being unlucky, he made an emergency stop and made a 2-point jumper! 41:33!

With Embiid accidentally dunking the basketball, Porzingis served to Beasley.Hardaway Jr. took the basketball and hit a three-pointer this time! 41:36!

The role of Iverson on the field is not small!Also, the 76ers were a little too optimistic in this quarter.Under such circumstances, the Knicks seized the opportunity to quickly make a sudden move, and the point difference was narrowed to 5 points.

Looking at it now, the opponent is not as powerful as he imagined at the beginning!Fultz's words are not very strong now, and their defense in this quarter is not so strict.

"Should we still play according to our plan before the game in the third quarter?" Rogge asked Chen after watching the game for a while.The coaching staff went through today's plan several times before the game.Because their relationship is good now, and they hope to get more opinions on today's game, so several people still conduct further inspections on Chen's final plan today.

"Let's see how far we can play at the end of this quarter. If this state is played, I'm afraid it will change."
