This striker is a bit of a monster

Chapter 331 Teaching Stephen Curry a lesson
This is a game destined to be very interesting, because the two teams will definitely become strong offensive and defensive teams this season.

Mike D'Antoni is definitely a fanatical creator of the offensive system. Once upon a time, the Phoenix Suns' "seven-second offensive tactic" made many strong teams in the league tremble. Under that system, Steve Nash, who is [-] years old, won Even Zhuang MVP, Sean Marion, and Amare Stoudemire have all become league All-Star players.

If it weren't for Robert Horry's push that year, perhaps the Phoenix Suns might have won the first championship in history, and it would become a legend in history-a team that relied on offense to win the final victory team.

It is a pity that time cannot be turned back, history cannot be repeated, and many things have no ifs.

It's just that a team with Mike D'Antoni has never lacked bright spots in offense, and the same is true of the New York Knicks this season.

As for the Charlotte Bobcats, because the team's grassroots decided, this will be a team with absolute talent on offense, although Larry Brown does not admire this style of play.

It is worth mentioning that the last team coached by Larry Brown was the New York Knicks.

Of course, for the old Brown, the days in New York were not glorious, the team's record was weak, the generals were incompatible, and the fans criticized them.

The only thing that Larry Brown can't forget is that he won the 1000th win in his coaching career with the Knicks, becoming the fourth head coach in the NBA to achieve this achievement.

After Charlotte gave the old general Emeka Okafor enough respect, and after exchanging pleasantries with each other, the game officially began.

Jared Jeffries helps the New York Knicks get the first possession.

The opening game for the New York Knicks was started by Stephen Curry with a three-pointer. Stephen Curry is much happier coming to the New York Knicks than going to the Golden State Warriors in the original historical line , in the Golden State Warriors, his partner is Monta Ellis, who also has no defense and needs the ball all the time, while in the Knicks, Stephen Curry will firmly occupy the first position and start position, and Mike D’Antoni will like Stephen Curry as much as Nelson, or even more, because D’Antoni likes players with three-point range very much, and Stephen Curry’s attributes also match D’Antoni’s system.

Swish!
Stephen Curry easily hit the first three-pointer in the away game. The short No. [-] position like Raymond Felton is exactly what Stephen Curry likes to face.

"It's still a familiar formula and taste!"

Curry's three-pointers will lead an era in the NBA in the future. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Warriors are the pioneers of the small ball era, and he is the beneficiary of the small ball era.

In the league before this, an NBA player can make 150 three-pointers per season, which is already considered efficient, and the head coach's vision for the first position is also in the organization of dribbling, breakthrough points, and fixed-point shooting. Like Stephen Curry, getting the ball and dribbling a few times and then shooting it early from beyond the three-point line is definitely an outlier.

"Although the New York Knicks have not been able to make the playoffs for several seasons, this year's Knicks really give people a refreshing feeling, and Stephen Curry, let me also find some Steve. Nash felt it."

The CCTV anchor laughed.

This is only Stephen Curry's third NBA game, and he is playing under D'Antoni's system. The agile and elegant style of play is indeed a little bit like Steve Nash, but as the game continues, Stephen Curry It will definitely not develop in the direction of Steve Nash. Although he may also send many assists per game, Stephen Curry's core threat is still some follow-up brought by three-pointers, including breakthroughs and Passing the ball, instead of being able to completely connect the team like Steve Nash, if Stephen Curry is regarded as a traditional No. [-] position, maybe he failed to catch up with Steve Nash and Jay A point guard like Sen Kidd.

As for the Charlotte Bobcats, they also returned to their own position and let Zhou Lin beat Wilson Chandler.

As long as the New York Knicks don't double-team, then Zhou Lin will continue to fire indefinitely.

Although the Charlotte Bobcats started their journey with visible offensive growth this season, they are different from the New York Knicks, who also focus on offense.

For the New York Knicks, D'Antoni is a bit like he's playing for the Phoenix Suns.

At least 6% similarity.

Make reasonable use of the space, strengthen the three-point shooting, let the players expand the shooting range, or make layups or outside lines, and give up part of the middle distance.

With Stephen Curry, a sharpshooter from Davis Academy, the performance is enough to revitalize the lineup, but it is difficult for this lineup to catch up with the original Phoenix Suns.

After all, Emeka Okafor is not Stoudemire, and Maggette and Wilson Chandler are not as good as Joe Johnson and Sean Marion.

Talent is always fundamental. With the same tactics, the New York Knicks can play [-]% well.

As for the Charlotte Bobcats, they play a different game on the offensive end. The Bobcats did not particularly emphasize offensive and defensive transitions this season, but emphasized matchup advantages. The Bobcats have too many good scorers. Lin and Roy have undoubtedly become the top scorers in the league. If both of them let go, there is basically no pressure for them to score 50+ points in a game. In addition, the team also has David . Lee is such a one-on-one master, and there is no shortage of scorers and pitchers on the bench.

Therefore, either you are directly killed by a misplacement, or you double-team or assist defense, and then watch the Bobcats transfer the ball and another player succeeds, or make an air cut or a three-pointer from the outside. The teams share a sense of collaborative identity, similar to Princeton's style of play.

It's not that Larry Brown's tricks must be higher than Mike D'Antoni, but that at this stage, the New York Knicks are indeed far inferior to the Charlotte Bobcats in terms of talent competition.

Of course, the game is not judged by the talent. At least in this game, the Charlotte Bobcats feel a little careless.

It is undeniable that after just winning the Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers, the players of the Charlotte Bobcats have somewhat relaxed psychologically.

Facing an offensive team, laxity is the easiest way to cultivate emotions.

In the first quarter, Stephen Curry was comfortable throwing. The team, whether it was Raymond Felton or today's second substitute Stephen Marbury, couldn't hold it back. , a gentle and thin player.

In the first quarter of the game, Curry threw four three-pointers in a single quarter.

"It seems that the Curry family was born for shooting!"

The commentary at the scene couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Because of Stephen Curry's father, Dell Curry was once a star player in this city, he was the scoring leader of the last Charlotte basketball team, and he can be regarded as a player who has a lot of connection with the current Bobcats team, and Dell Curry In the 10 seasons that Curry played in Charlotte, he made more than 7% of his three-pointers in 4 seasons, which is terrifying.

And Stephen Curry feels more talented than his father who has been a supporting role all his life.

Although thin, Curry is very determined, and his grasp of the rhythm of the game is not like a rookie player.

33-30, in the first quarter of the game, the Charlotte Bobcats were still behind by 3 points.

"Cheer up, guys!"

"The opponent is stronger than we thought."

In the second quarter of the game, Zhou Lin made his debut again.

"We're starting to get serious."

Zhou Lin said, "I'm going to start shooting three-pointers too."

Curry smiled and said, "Zhou, are you trying to compare yourself to me?"

"Now you are not my opponent!"

There is indeed a gap in hard power between the two teams. Zhou Lin's indiscriminate singles made it impossible for the New York Knicks to start. Zhou Lin also made 3 three-pointers in the second quarter.

"I also entered four!"

In the first quarter of the game, Stephen Curry felt hot, and in the second quarter, the Charlotte Bobcats' guarding of Stephen Curry became stricter. Zhu Holiday played a lot of time. Although Holiday struggled on the offensive end and missed consecutive shots, but on the defensive end, he really restricted Stephen Curry's shots. .

As the first post-90s in the league, Rubio failed to enter the NBA directly in this year's draft, so Holiday is the first post-90s NBA player.

The Bobcats will not mind the poor shooting of the young Holiday. It is already a very good thing to be able to exchange sons with Stephen Curry.

After all, talent cannot be trained, but scoring ability can be trained in the NBA.

Physical measurements don't lie.

Holiday's barefoot height of 191cm is definitely a tall point guard.

Also, the real killer feature is the wingspan. A wingspan of 205cm will put tremendous pressure on opponents on both ends of the offense and defense, especially when defending players like Curry who need shooting space.

In addition, Holiday's weight is relatively good among defenders, at 93KG.

Moreover, Holiday's 3/4 field speed can reach 3.21 seconds, and the speed of round-trip running in the penalty area is 10.64 seconds. Among them, the data of round-trip running in the penalty area is the fastest among rookies in 09. It is also the top existence among defenders!

Holiday's high-quality performance on the defensive end also gave him a lot of points for Larry Brown.

In the second quarter of the game, Stephen Curry entered a frozen state. After scoring 14 points in the first quarter, only 2 points were recorded in the second quarter, and he was continuously targeted on the offensive end. foul.

The Charlotte Bobcats also directly relied on a strong offensive to play a 36-23 advantage of 13 points in a single quarter.

"It can only be said that the background of the New York Knicks is still a little thin!"

In the third quarter, the New York Knicks played well for 3 minutes. Stephen Curry's shooting ability should not be underestimated. He just gave a little space and Curry made two more three-pointers. , narrowed the point difference to at least 2 points, but as the Charlotte Bobcats' twin stars began to play, Zhou Lin and Brandon Roy hit Stephen Curry several times in pick-and-rolls, which can be regarded as making Stephen Curry Li felt the cruel atmosphere in the NBA.

In the end, Stephen Curry left the field with six fouls before finishing the third quarter.

Of course, the data of 23 points, 7 assists and 4 rebounds in three quarters is definitely a super excellent data for a rookie player.

In the end, the Charlotte Bobcats easily pushed the game into garbage time in three quarters.

In the end, the Charlotte Bobcats defeated the New York Knicks by 112-94 with 18 points and won three consecutive victories in the opening season.

In this campaign, Zhou Lin also made 6 three-pointers, but Zhou Lin's shooting percentage was 8 of 6, because the New York Knicks gave him great shooting opportunities, and Stephen Curry's 13 shots The three-pointer in 6 is also considered excellent, but it is a little immature with Zhou Lin.

Zhou Lin's 32 points, 5 assists and 6 rebounds in three quarters are obviously the best in the game.

"Hey rookie, how are you feeling?"

Zhou Lin took the initiative to hug Curry after the game, and said jokingly: "It is far from your era now! But compared to your father, your performance is already considered very good."

Stephen Curry smiled and said: "Haha, how about it compared to your rookie period? The next time we meet, it won't be so easy for you to win."

"I can only say that it is very good. I remember that I got two 20+ games in a row, which seems to be much slower than that!"

Zhou Lindao: "Well, do you want to exchange jerseys?"

"Of course, I am very happy!"

Faced with Zhou Lin's proposal, Stephen Curry immediately took off his No. 30 jersey and exchanged jerseys with Zhou Lin in front of the reporters' cameras.

Although the New York Knicks conceded a goal, for them, the obsession with winning or losing this season is not so important.

The Bobcats' three-game winning streak here is directly reaching the top of the East, and it is also the only team in the East that has not lost. The other team that has not lost is the Orlando Magic.

The first week of the new NBA season is over.

Zhou Lin and Carmelo Anthony were named the Eastern Conference Player of the Week and the Western Conference Player of the Week respectively.

In the first week of the game, Zhou Lin averaged 27.6 points, 7.3 assists and 6.3 rebounds per game, and his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 60%.

Even scoring 20.5 points, 18.5 rebounds and 3 blocks, the center Dwight Howard of the same Golden Age team can only be inferior to Zhou Lin.

And the best rookie of the first week, here in the East, Stephen Curry averaged 18.3 points, 5.6 assists and 4 rebounds per game, and was elected without any suspense.

In the West, James Harden averaged 14 points, 4 assists and 5 rebounds per game.

In addition, Eric Evans, Jordan Hill, Brandon Jennings... together more than 7 rookies scored in double figures, and the rookies as a whole have surpassed the 2008 rookies in the same period.
