Chapter 1300 Against the Knicks

Speaking of Porzingis, the Celtics are about to play a game with the Knicks.

In the last game, they won the Blazers who were in good shape, and let people see their current state.

There is going to be a game with the Knicks soon, so naturally no one thinks they will lose.

night.

Countless fans came to the home court, almost filling the entire stands.

The current Celtics, for any team, apart from a very strong record, that is their enviable attendance.

It's all money.

But not envious.

Unless their record is like the Celtics, the only way is to be like the Bulls and Knicks, no matter how bad the record is, the attendance rate is very good.

locker room.

Players from both sides entered the player tunnel one after another. Looking at their mental state, the Celtics are much better.

After all, they have firmly secured the No. [-] position in the league until now, and they won't fall out of the top six unless most of the subsequent games die suddenly.

As for the Knicks.

They've been having a really hard time recently.

At first it was not good, but in the middle it was okay.

But I thought they would stabilize their record and status, but as the game progressed, it became more and more unbearable, and now they feel like they have fallen out of the playoffs.

in this way.

After losing a lot of games recently, they desperately need a victory to make them feel the taste of victory.

Especially Porzingis.

As a rookie with extremely fast growth and talent, even though the current statistics are very good, his self-confidence is really lacking.

This can be a very bad experience for a player who aspires to be an All-Star.

Enter the arena.

The scene was as lively as ever, and it was time to cheer and jump for joy.

If you find a fan and ask him how he is feeling now, it may be like Chinese New Year.

As they say, even when the Celtics formed the Big Three and won the championship that year, they were never as stable as they are now.

Even with this Celtics team, which has seen huge ups and downs in the past month, no one thinks they will continue to sink.

Therefore, there are more and more fans supporting them, and they have more and more confidence in them.

Entering the player's bench, the coaches of both sides began to dispatch troops.

correct.

Because of the Knicks' record problems, "Old Fish" Derek Fisher, who had previously become a victim, was fired by the Knicks.

honestly.

He may have some problems, but it would be a bit far-fetched to insist on leaning on him.

The problems with the Knicks are not small. It is definitely not a coach's problem, but a problem from top to bottom.

However, according to the rules in the NBA, the coach is often the first to take the blame.

As for the team's core and players, it doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, and the core players are even less likely to move.

Then only the coach can move, so Fisher became the one who was sacrificed.

Now he is replaced by the first assistant coach, who can be regarded as a veteran assistant coach for many years, Kurt Rambis.

This person's story is a bit bumpy, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as underappreciated.

It is a pity that he rarely left the teaching assistant seat in his career.

correct.

It is said that with the rise of Kurt Rambis, the team's tactics have also changed.

Exactly.

The Knicks management has begun to compromise and will give Carmelo Anthony everything he has lost.

That's right.

He will get unlimited shooting rights again, and unlike the beginning of this season, the ball rights will take care of Porzingis.

This can be regarded as the Knicks' helplessness.

honestly.

Anthony's personal ability is still there, but his shooting rate is really not as good as in previous years.

Continuing to give him the unlimited right to fire now is not only intended to appease him, but the other is that he may have to have some ideas.

But all of this is meaningless. After all, the season is still going on, and it is impossible to make any moves.

Celtic here.

Almost all of them are very confident.

With what happened yesterday, everyone rushed to the same path.

Life is alive, who doesn't have a little rush?

Since he has the opportunity to win the best honor, why is he muddling along like a bastard, and dawdling with the team.

And with the end of a series of appearance ceremonies, the game finally began.

The main force of the Celtics is basically unchanged, and this lineup is already very stable.

The Knicks are.

Center Robin Lopez, power forward Porzingis, small forward Carmelo Anthony, shooting guard Aaron Afflalo, point guard veteran Jose Calderon.

There are still some good players sitting on the bench. They are used properly and their strength is not weak.

Start.

Lopez's floor flow is not an opponent at all. Qin Tao easily got the ball and rushed to the frontcourt immediately.

Fearing the impact of the Celtics, Porzingis immediately followed him, and chatted while defending.

Qin Tao talked to him a few words, and it sounds like Porzingis' mentality is okay.

But thinking about the information that Zarya revealed in the previous phone call, whoever is promised the core of the future by the team will have a good mentality.

But the premise of having a good mentality is that he has to find a way to break through from Qin Tao in this game.

Only by fighting tough battles can you be more convinced.

coming.

The Celtics were all under pressure and started a halftime run.

I said it earlier.

The Celtics are now consciously hiding what they are best at, and basically follow the conventional style of play.

With Qin Tao on the inside and Durant on the outside, supplemented by Isiah Thomas, they also combined inside and outside.

at the moment.

Isiah Thomas got Qin Tao's inside position immediately.

Everyone else opened up space for him and let him handle the first goal of the game.

Bang bang bang! !

The strong back, like a hammer, kept hitting Porzingis' chest.

His abilities are very comprehensive, but in terms of strength alone, he basically can't stand up to the strength type.

But he is superior in height and arm length, and his strength is not as good as that of using technology.

pity.

He has skills, and Qin Tao's skills are stronger.

I saw that the moment Porzingis was about to take advantage of his advantage, he seized the opportunity and turned around like a spinning top.

There is no one in front of you.

Qin Tao sprang out like a beast, soaring into the sky was a dunk!
The previous game was too dull, now under this dunk, Qin Tao immediately vented his mental fatigue.

Easy to fight again.

Porzingis suddenly became a high-ranking blue-collar.

His support is everywhere, and his goal has almost never changed, which is to play for Anthony.

Durant, who was facing Anthony, seemed to be facing a formidable enemy at this time.

honestly.

If Durant is asked to say who his rivals in the league are, he will definitely say James and Anthony.

Instead of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George.

Anthony may be on the decline right now, but is the offensive kaleidoscope just talk?
