The Basketball Court Swordsman

Anthony scored 14 points in a single quarter. He showed his superb offensive skills and talent to the fullest. The New Yorker dreamed of getting a super scorer, an offensive kaleidoscope, and a true superstar.

But surprisingly, they did not get the lead.

"Others are also integrated into the offense. Don't put all the scoring tasks on Cameron! More transfers, more picks and rolls, have you forgotten what you did during training!?" D'Antoni during the intermission Hold the tactical board and emphasize your offensive system over and over again.

On the surface, this was meant for others, but in fact it was what D'Antoni told Anthony.

Anthony's singles offense slowed down after holding the ball is actually quite different from D'Antoni's system. But as an old fritters, D'Antoni knows exactly what it is to go against the superstar.

This is New York, here, in the end only the stars can stay!

Therefore, he didn't tell Anthony clearly, it just depends on whether the old lady Anthony could understand.

On the other hand, Henson is very satisfied with the players' performance.

"You did a great job in the first quarter. The offensive end should be played like that. I don't want to see any personal heroism offense. When I need personal heroism, I will tell you!"

Henson did not make any changes in tactics, as long as more flowers, so that the Knicks can not grasp the defensive focus, the game will continue so smoothly.

The rest period is always short. After the start of the second quarter, D'Antoni did not let Anthony play. With a height of 2.06 meters, Sean Williams played in place of Anthony, which made Henson a little nervous.

Because there is no Anthony, it means that the Knicks' offense will begin to follow their original tactics.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Hollodi easily made a jumper with a screen on the right. Billups' physical condition is deteriorating, and his condition is not even as good as during the Nuggets.

Henson thought that in addition to his physical condition, Billups' mental condition was also not good.

Billups and his family are all in Denver, and he never thought he would be traded. If it weren't for Anthony, the old Billups wouldn't have to become a superhero and live in New York. To play in the Knicks, Billups must be very resistant inside.

D'Antoni yelled violently from the sidelines, and the Pacers scored as soon as they played, which undoubtedly made the Knicks situation more passive.

However, this time the goal is only the beginning of a series of offensives by the Pacers. The Pacers have become accustomed to such team fighting, but the Knicks have not yet eased from the rhythm of Anthony's singles.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Knicks were beaten 7-2. The score became 36 to 23, and the Pacers got a 13-point lead in one fell swoop!

"Lack of scoring points on the court, Mike!" Anthony couldn't stand it anymore, he asked to play!

Mike D'Antoni gritted his teeth unwillingly and waved his hand: "No, you can rest a little longer, Cameron!"

D'Antoni is not reconciled, is it possible that with a clearer tactical idea, the Knicks will collapse instead? Is it possible that the Knicks really have to rely on Anthony's singles to win?

"Behind by 13 points, this Pacers really played 55 with anyone. Weak when weak, and strong when strong." Albert obviously did not expect the Pacers to be so strong today, because a week ago, the Pacers He even lost to the Rockets that were not in the playoffs.

Although the loss to the Rockets caused the Pacers to be criticized, everyone ignored one point. Although the Rockets are not in the top eight in the West, he and the eighth in the West have only a slight gap of 3-4 wins. Its performance is even at the same level as the Knicks, currently sixth in the East.

The Rockets are not as weak as everyone thinks, and it is not unreasonable for the Pacers to lose this ball. The Knicks are not as strong as everyone thinks...

After the suspension, Anthony still sat firmly on the Diaoyutai. He leaned against the chair with his arms around his chest, looking very relaxed.

Anthony wants to see how the Knicks can get back to the 13-point difference without himself.

In the first round after coming back from the timeout, Stoudemire played a pick-and-roll with Billups elder. Horford immediately shrunk the penalty area, as far as possible not to expose the basket to Stoudemire's offensive.

However, Billups did not pass the ball to Stoudemire after bypassing the screen, but instead hit the ball to Sean Williams who replaced Anthony.

Sean Williams is not a very famous player. This player, who played for the Pacers before Henson came, had the best year of his career and averaged only 7.1 points per game. Therefore, Henson did not make any special arrangements for Williams.

However, Billups' wonderful pass allowed Williams to hit a three-pointer. D'Antoni clapped his hands excitedly, this is the Knicks offense!

Afterwards, Holiday broke through the ball and almost left it to Danny Green, who stood at the bottom corner. As soon as Green took the shot, Sean Williams rushed forward actively.

Williams, like Dunleavy, has a height of 2.06 meters, making them undisputed "giants" at the 3 position.

The huge interference made Green three-pointer and Williams made another contribution!

The Knicks' counterattack continued, this time Sean Williams ended up with Fields's cover and ran into neutral, and Matthews had to make up to Williams.

However, facing Matthews, Williams still has a height advantage.

He went to the right and Billups basketball was delivered immediately. Everyone thought Williams was just a transition point, including Matthews. However, Williams suddenly pulled up a three-pointer when this was not an opportunity!

Matthews immediately blocked it, but at 1.96 meters, he couldn't do anything with Williams one step away.

The basketball hit the net for the second time, and Sean Williams, the little-known high No. 3, scored six points in a row and pulled the Knicks back from the cliff!

"Where did you kill a thousand knives, **** it!" Henson yelled, obviously the game was already very stable, why did the old man have to create a "surprise" for himself?

Vogel looked at Henson in surprise. Why does this guy yell at "tomatoes" when he gets angry?

Williams' two consecutive three-pointers boosted the Knicks morale, and then Stoudemire took advantage of the chaos and scored a layup inside, and made another foul by McRoberts, scoring a total of 4 points.

With Williams and Stoudemire's inside and outside combination, the Knicks played a wave of 10 to 2, and in one fell swoop the score became 34 to 38.

Henson called the game to stop, he didn't want to wait until he fell behind to make adjustments.

"Matthews, Green, you guys go off the court and rest for a while. You just did a good job, don't give yourself too much psychological burden. Lance, George, go on the court and use your entanglement to stop the opponent from scoring. Also, increase the breakthrough. Don’t be nailed beyond the three-point line."

Although the score was forced to close, Henson was thankful that he found the problem and was not helpless.

First of all, the height of the 3 position is too short, which is why the Pacers were shot by Williams by 6 points. As a result, Henson let the same 2.06 meter George debut.

Secondly, the Knicks strengthened the blocking of three-pointers, which made the Pacers' offense difficult. Both Green and Matthews are excellent three-pointer-defensive players, but they are not good at attacking with the ball. As long as the shooting space is blocked, their offensive power will be greatly reduced.

So Henson replaced Stephenson in order to enhance the team's breakthrough threat.

"The last two minutes, Cameron. Two minutes later, I want you to open the score!" On the other side, D'Antoni twisted his moustache on his lips and pointed **** at Anthony.

That wave of offense by the Knicks just now undoubtedly made D'Antoni quite proud. It turns out that the Knicks can play well without Anthony!

His plan is to continue to suppress the Pacers with the current lineup. When the energetic Anthony comes back, he will open the score in one fell swoop!

What a beautiful plan, D'Antoni is already planning to celebrate victory. What did the rookie Chinese coach fight with me?

When the timeout was over, boos suddenly appeared in Madison Square Garden.

Marvin Albert on the commentary took a specific look and found the reason for the boos.

It turned out that Lance Stephenson, the "Son of New York", appeared.

Stephenson's notoriety in New York, fans here have not forgotten. This guy has made a deep impression on New Yorkers from the high-profile to notorious.

Now watching this notorious "Son of New York" return home, the Knicks fans naturally have a "warm welcome".

"Is this your plan? Henson Joe, fight me with a trash?" D'Antoni sat back on the bench with a boo, as if the game had stabilized.
