the great gatsby

Chapter 293 17 consecutive victories!

The Knicks did not stop their winning streak. They returned to the home court to face the challenge of the Charlotte Bobcats for the first time. The Knicks won it neatly.

Anthony seems to like the feeling of assists. In this game, he handed over a triple-double of 27 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds.

Stoudemire was in average form this game, scoring only 16 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists.

Billups was very stable, scoring 18 points, 6 assists and 4 rebounds, which is quite rare for a veteran.

Gatsby is also very stable, scoring 28 points, 11 assists and 3 steals. Anthony's axis of passing the ball did not affect his assist data, because of Gatsby's strong attraction ability, every time he catches the ball, he can always attract To pinch, and then score the ball is an empty blue opportunity.

The second game is the Atlanta Hawks. Last season, the Knicks were still a underdog when facing the Hawks. But this season, the Knicks have become tall, rich and handsome, but the Hawks are not easy to mess with. In the new season, the young people of the Hawks are the same. Al Horford has grown rapidly and gradually reached the peak. His performance looks simple, but he has improved the team too much. Since the beginning of this season, he has achieved 10 wins and 6 losses. This is a very good record. Of course It's incomparable to the Knicks' opening dozen-game winning streak.

Even facing the Big Four of the Knicks, the Hawks still kept the suspense until the fourth quarter. In the end, they relied on five small lineups to defeat the Hawks. The Hawks had six players in double figures, and they relied on teamwork and balance.

The Big Four of the Knicks scored 86 points together. In this game, Gatsby almost beat the white devil Mike Bibby, defending Mike Bibby to only 11 points and 2 assists, while Gatsby scored 42 points. With 11 assists and 7 rebounds, with the integration of Anthony and Billups, Gatsby has gradually released his influence on the game and will not deliberately give them opportunities.

Anthony's performance is still very good. In this game, he scored 26 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists. Anthony is already very satisfied. After all, it is not impossible to get a triple-double every game, but it is too difficult.

On November 11, the Knicks faced the Pistons at home. The Pistons' record this season was actually pretty good. McGrady actually ushered in a new outbreak with the Pistons. His time with the Knicks changed his destiny, although he no longer had the dominance he had in the past. He has become a stable scoring point. Since the new season, he has averaged 28, 18 points, 2 rebounds and 5 assists per game. He is considered a qualified substitute.

However, the Pistons' record has not been significantly improved. Since the start of the season, they have only achieved a record of 7 wins and 10 losses. It is undoubtedly a dream with such strength to beat the Knicks. The Knicks easily defeated the Pistons.

On November 11th, the Knicks ushered in a heavy opponent at home. The Orlando Magic, which is temporarily ranked third in the Eastern Conference, has maintained a good lineup, so it still maintains enough competitiveness. Although there are not many optimistic about the Magic this season The team was able to break out of the Eastern Conference, because the Eastern Conference has now become the territory of the giants. Whether the Magic is facing the Miami Heat, the Boston Celtics or the Knicks, they have no hope of winning, but the game against the Knicks still arouses A lot of attention.

The Magic team is really strong. In this game, coach Stan Van Gundy's operation was very sloppy. Howard just guarded the basket and couldn't come out. He tried his best to organize the Knicks to attack the basket, and then the tactics of other people blocking the three-point line played a miraculous effect. The Magic team Even in the first three quarters, they were evenly matched with the Knicks. Anthony, Billups and Stoudemire didn't perform well, but Gatsby exploded!
Because Howard didn't go out, Gatsby made 12 three-pointers from the three-point line and hit 8 of them. He scored 48 points, 9 assists and 4 rebounds in the game. At the end of the fourth quarter, D'Antoni made five The small lineup closed the game in one wave.

So far, all the games in November are over. The Knicks have not lost a game since the start of the game and won 17 consecutive victories!

Carmelo Anthony's statistics in November were 27.8 points, 10.2 rebounds and 9.2 assists, and he was awarded the Eastern Conference's Best of the Month!
Anthony's performance this month is indeed phenomenal. His rebounds and assists are both career highs. Anthony has received high praise from many experts.

Popovich said: "Carmelo finally showed his own strength. He should have been so good. After all, he was the player with the same name as LeBron when he first entered the league."

Magic Johnson said: "His performance is really great. He broke people's stereotypes of him. Before that, people thought he was not an excellent leader and his attitude was not positive, but he proved himself."

Anthony's original mentor, Karl George, has also changed his evaluation of Anthony, but is still not too polite: "I am surprised that he can do this. He has indeed done a good job in defensive attitude and sharing the ball this month. If he can If he does this before, he won't waste so many years."

Anthony heard Karl George's evaluation of him. This time he did not retort. He said: "This month is indeed a radical change for me. For the first time, I realized the importance of defense and sharing. I learned a lot. But I have to say, the Knicks gave me a suitable system, Gatsby is a top ball handler, after I arrived, he sacrificed the ball, turned and ran off the ball, I have never seen such selflessness player of.

I was able to integrate into the Knicks so quickly, which has a lot to do with his sacrifice. Not only that, I have learned too many things from him, selflessness, hard work, struggle, used to take responsibility and desire for victory, Gatsby is a leader who is easy to get along with. Yes, he is the real leader of the Knicks. His personality charm conquered me. Gatsby never cares who is the boss of the team. I seem to have better statistics than him. But he is the leader of the team. "

Anthony's words are shocking. Anthony is a lonely player. Even for Kobe and James, he is equal to the harmonious players. He never bows his head, but now he says that Gatsby is the leader of the team. This kind of change is true. Jaw-dropping.

Gatsby said: "Cameron praises me too much. He is already a very good leader. This month he has won triple-doubles many times. Not only did he score 20+ points, he also had 10+ rebounds and nearly 10 assists. He is a very versatile player. To say he is like James is an insult to him. He is the unique Carmelo Anthony. As for who is the boss of the team, does it matter? Our team boss has Stoudemire and Carmelo , Chauncey, we don't care about these, all we care about is winning, and winning is what we care about."
