Rebirth of Yidi Legend

Chapter 704 Yi Jianlian's Thoughts
This game also caused heated discussions before the game. After all, there are too many things to watch in this game. After completing such a transaction, the Nets suddenly became the giants of the entire league, and their record improved all of a sudden. , and like them, the New York Knicks, which suffered a two-game losing streak at the beginning of the season, also regained their dominance in the following time and ranked among the forefront of the Eastern Conference. Different games will inevitably be an anxious battle.

Moreover, in this game, the "Big Three of the Celtics" appeared on the field as opponents for the first time after going their separate ways, which naturally attracted some people's attention.

In addition to these, I have to talk about the relationship between Yi Jianlian and the Celtics' Big Three. The first big rhythm of Yi Jianlian's career was related to Garnett. At that time, he became an All-Star power forward in the Eastern Conference. The first start made many fans think that Kevin Garnett should give way. After all, "Wolf King" was the top two power forwards in the league at that time. Since there is Duncan in the West, Garnett must be in the East.

But it turned out that Yi Jianlian didn't give in at all, and made himself the All-Star starter.

It just so happened that Rivers was the head coach of the Eastern Conference in that game. He let Mike Reid and Yi Jianlian sit on the bench for a while, which also triggered subsequent conflicts. The Bucks met the Celtics for the first time after the All-Star Game At that time, they played garbage time, but it turned out that the Celtics took all the starters, and the Bucks still did not remove Yi Jianlian and Mike Reed. At that time, it can be said that the city was really full of trouble.

Only a few years later, looking back at everything at that time, it can no longer be the main conflict between the two teams. After all, Yi Jianlian is now recognized as No.1 in the league, and Kevin Garnett and Pierce, including Ray Allen, Maybe they are still players above the league average, but they are no longer representative players of this league. They have come to the end of their careers.

Also because the weight levels are obviously not at the same level, everyone is more concerned about the game itself for this game. Both teams have just formed newcomers and are still in the process of running in. Of course, the Knicks are obviously already Gradually touched the key to victory, and although the Nets have started to score goals, the cooperation between each other is still a bit rusty. Judging from the entire first quarter of the game, the current Nets start with three sets of play , Deron Williams and Lopez have obvious frequent interactions between the two players who were originally the Nets, in addition to Joe Johnson's own singles, and finally the cooperation between Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce, In short, these guys are still playing according to their original style of play, and they don't want to adjust at all.

However, this is precisely a part of the chemical reaction process, but it takes a long time. These guys have already formed their own habits. It is still a bit difficult to correct it for a while, and it will take a little time. .

It's just that although the Nets are playing their own way, they still led by 33 points 30 to 3 in the first quarter, ending the first quarter of the game.

There was nothing wrong with Yi Jianlian's performance in the first quarter. He scored 12 points and 3 assists, and his shooting percentage was over 60%. In short, everything was no different from his average data this season.

The problem was James Harden. His field goal percentage in the first quarter was 5% lower than in the previous winning streak. It doesn't look like much, but it did affect the Knicks' offensive efficiency.

After all, for the current Knicks, James Harden is the second in command.

However, this is not all of their problems. Their bigger problem is their rebounding.

"As I said before, the Knicks have problems inside, and this problem cannot be solved in a short while. If they don't adjust the entire lineup, then the problem of them not being able to grab rebounds will be solved. It has always existed, and Amare still has at least 3 months before he can return, and no one can guarantee whether he can quickly recover his state at this stage after not playing for a year, and this is also the biggest Problem, the Knicks have a rebounding problem in the new season, of course, this is also a sell for their supplementary fourth position in the summer!"

Bill Walton, who analyzed the Knicks' rebounding problems before the game, also explained the game. After seeing that the Knicks still had rebounding problems in this game, he also reiterated this problem again. .

Speaking of which, the current game rhythm of the league has been much higher than before without knowing it, which also makes the team pay more and more attention to the protection of rebounds.

And the current league also has a lot more inside players who only focus on rebounding and do nothing else!
This also makes the inside competition for rebounds more intense.

Especially in this season, it is particularly obvious.

In fact, if the Knicks' interior configuration this year was last year, even if it is not very prominent in the league, it is definitely not a big disadvantage.

But this year, the entire league's emphasis on rebounding has reached a new height, and many rebounding monsters have been born in the league. The Knicks' disadvantage in this regard has become greater.

"I'm going to play number four!"

The intermission did not allow D'Antoni to come up with any good solutions. He is a head coach who advocates offense. It cannot be said that he knows nothing about defense, but he is definitely a character who is not satisfied with half a bottle. , Yi Jianlian finally decided to take the initiative to play the fourth position.

Then adjust Grant Hill to the third position.

In this way, the overall height of the Knicks can rise, and Yi Jianlian is also confident in grabbing more rebounds.

……

Yi Jianlian also couldn't remember how long he hadn't played against Kevin Garnett again, and he never thought that such a day would come.

After he arrived at the third position, the game suddenly became easier in his opinion, but with the changes in the rhythm of the game and the overall environment, coupled with the New York team's signings this summer, he only played in the fourth position. The number position can no longer solve more problems.

The Knicks' rebounding problem has indeed always existed, but they have solved many problems with their high shooting percentage, but today James Harden's sluggish touch makes this problem very obvious.

The Nets' internal strength is actually not strong, and there must be teams in the entire league that are stronger than their internal strength, so Yi Jianlian plans to try to return to the fourth position to see if he can make up for some rebounding problems!
