Chapter 174 Chauncey Billups' Debut
"Good evening, everyone. This is the live broadcast of the NBA regular season New York Knicks vs. Boston Celtics at home. I'm Kevin Harlan, the commentator for NBC. Next to me is my partner, Walter Frazier. Another exciting night against two of the best teams in the league, the Celtics just won two games in a row, and the Knicks lost one game, but there's no questioning their quality."

Kevin Harlan's voice sounded again. NBC still arranged for him to explain the game, but his partner was replaced by Madison Square Garden's live commentator Walter Frazier. As a Knicks legend, Walter Frazier Ze chose to become the live commentator of Madison Square Garden after retiring.

"The game is about to start. Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides. The Knicks' starting lineup is still their regular lineup. Point guard Charlie Ward, shooting guard Alan Houston, small forward Larry Johnson , power forward Charles Oakley, and center Patrick Ewing, the Knicks used this lineup to win the fourth regular season record in the Eastern Conference last season, and the Knicks are still very strong this season."

"And the Celtics' starting lineup has been adjusted again. The starting point guard has become this year's No. 1 pick Chauncey Billups. In the first two games, Chauncey Billups didn't get even a minute of playing time. , and Rick Pitino chose Chauncey Billups as the team's starting point guard for this game. The other four starters for the Celtics are shooting guard Jonny Lee, small forward Bruce Bower Wen, power forward Tim Thomas, and center Ben Wallace. It is still a small lineup. In the first two games, the Celtics relied on a small lineup to achieve two consecutive victories. Can they continue to write miracles in this game? "

The game started quickly, the jump ball, Ben Wallace's height disadvantage unsurprisingly lost the jump ball, Patrick Ewing won the ball effortlessly, and the Knicks made the first wave of offense.

Charlie Ward took the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, and the two sides settled at halftime. Jonny glanced at Alan Houston, who was defending him, and a disdainful expression immediately appeared on his face.And Alan Houston obviously has no objection to Jonny's disdainful expression. Now the gap between Jonny and Alan Houston is getting bigger and bigger. Jonny is already the boss of a team. Michael Jordan faced off, but lost the Eastern Conference Finals because of the strength of the team.

In contrast to Alan Houston, the Bulls played against the Knicks in the Eastern Conference semifinals, but Alan Houston was completely lost under the Bulls' defense. The Knicks could only rely on Patrick Ewing to support them, and they were swept away in the end.After the start of this season, Alan Houston is still the Knicks second child.Maybe Alan Houston will blush now thinking of those words he said at the University of Tennessee last year.

The Knicks' first wave of offense finally gave the ball to Patrick Ewing inside. The old Ewing overwhelmed Ben Wallace to complete a short-range jumper and scored two points.

And then, Jonny immediately turned around and returned a mid-range jumper, which also hit.

Compared with last season, the New York Knicks, who have hardly changed, still only use Alan Houston, whose defensive ability is at an average level, to defend Johnny. The result can only be a tragedy. In the next game, Knicks fans can only Seeing Jonny constantly wreaking havoc on the heads of the Knicks' outside players, he kept making various mid-range jumpers and three-pointers.

At the same time, the tank-style breakthrough just developed this season also made Alan Houston, who was defending Johnny, miserable. Johnny's assists also made several teammates slowly throw their hands away.

On the defensive end, Jonny, who is no longer a defensive colander, perfectly completed the task of freezing Alan Houston. When Jonny blocked Alan Houston's shot with a crazy big cap on the defensive end, Knicks fans on the sidelines In an instant, I thought of the same scene from last season, Johnny hooded Alan Houston and John Starks!

And Angelina Jolie, who came to the scene of this game, screamed even more excitedly, which also made Jonny, who was still very passionate, sweat profusely.

"Jonnie Lee's block, the Celtics' fast break started again. After Jonny grabbed the basketball, he ran straight towards the frontcourt! With lightning speed, he threw away Alan Houston who had been following him all the time. In the first game, Alan Houston encountered Jonny Lee's full blast! Wow! Dunk! Jonny Lee's dunk! The entire Madison Square Garden arena is silent! Oh no, there is still sound, let's see, it seems to be Angie Lena Jolie, she looks so excited!"

"Haha, Angelina Jolie looks very excited, is she having an affair with Jonny?"

Soon, more and more people discovered the appearance of Angelina Jolie. This kind of abnormal excitement made many people start to imagine. At this time, 1 grass mud horses were running in Jonny's heart. According to this trend , I'm afraid Jonny's virginity is really going to be lost.
With Jonny's dunks, the Celtics unexpectedly led by 10 points in the away game, and Jonny's rampage in the first quarter accounted for a large part of the reason.In fact, Jonny himself felt a little strange in this game, it was too easy, whether it was offense or defense.

In fact, if someone can analyze it for Johnny from the opponent's factors, Johnny will understand.In this game, Alan Houston was defending Jonny, a player who can only be regarded as an average defender. Of course, it cannot be compared with Michael Jordan and Doug Christie in the previous two games. It is very normal for Jonny to feel relaxed on the offensive end.

On the defensive end, Jonny's opponent is still Alan Houston, a player who can only shoot, and he is naturally incomparable with Michael Jordan, who can shoot well, and Daryl Armstrong, who is equally versatile.

Soon, the first quarter ended, Jonny was sweating profusely, and took the towel thrown by Chauncey Billups. Well, only played 5 minutes in the first quarter and scored 4 points on 1 of 3 shots.And Rick Pitino replaced him early.

Because the team has a good momentum and is expected to determine the victory before the end of halftime, Rick Pitino will naturally not let Chauncey Billups waste time on the court like this, replacing Dana Barros can establish the victory faster , and then wouldn't it be better to let these young players play in the second half?

Looking at the dejected Chauncey Billups, Jonny comforted him. After all, Jonny is still very optimistic about this point guard. In the team training game, Chauncey Billups' performance was still very good. Not bad, all kinds of running and three-pointers are very slippery. If Chauncey Billups can adapt to the NBA as soon as possible, it is obviously a perfect supplement to the Celtics' existing lineup.

At the end of the first quarter, the Celtics led by 33 points at 25:8. Although Chauncey Billups' performance was not good, Jonny's explosion, as well as the outstanding performance of Dana Barros and Ben Wallace Let the Celtics maintain their advantage on the field.And the Celtics' fast breaks also made the Knicks very uncomfortable. Although there are many such fast break teams in the current NBA, they seize every opportunity to play fast breaks like the Celtics, or Shooting regardless of whether the opportunity is optimal or not is very rare.

Especially when Johnny has a wide hand, no matter how he throws, it is the time when the opponent has the most headache.

In the second quarter of the game, the Celtics replaced Jonny and Dana Barros, allowing Chauncey Billups and Di Brown to partner in the backcourt, and this adjustment made the Celtics slightly trapped on the court. Inferior, and Chauncey Billups's still poor performance has Rick Pitino constantly shaking his head on the sidelines.

However, the Knicks, who were chaotically attacked by the Celtics in the first quarter, failed to find confidence, and they failed to get back the score in the second quarter.

In the past 6 minutes of the second quarter, Rick Pitino replaced Johnny and Dana Barros again. At this time, the Celtics still led by 7 points.

"Jony countered with the ball, his speed is getting faster and faster, Alan Houston is almost exhausted, maybe Jeff Van Gundy should consider replacing John Starks, Johnny Lee's dunk! Dunk! Fast break Dunk! As soon as he got back on the court, Johnny made a dunk."

On the first ball back on the court, Jonny completed a fast-break dunk by stealing the ball from Alan Houston, widening the point difference to 9 points.The Celtics' sharp fast break made the Knicks slowly lost. The Knicks, who were mostly veterans, quickly collapsed under the Celtics' young style of play.

When the half-time timer beeped, the scoreboard showed 72:52, and the Celtics led by 20 points. Obviously, many people did not expect this before the game, but compared with the previous two games, people have already Not so surprised, the Celtics' special style of play will indeed cause such a situation, and the Celtics' strength is not as bad as people think!
In the second half, Jonny played the third quarter again, setting his own data at 39 points, 8 rebounds, 15 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks. The Celtics have already led by 27 points. The suspense of the game has already passed. No, both sides sent full substitutes in the fourth quarter, and Chauncey Billups reappeared, but his performance was still struggling.

For Chauncey Billups, he obviously needs more time to adapt to this league.

But for Chauncey Billups' frustration, Jonny didn't have time to comfort him, because when the end-of-game timer beeped, the woman chased after him, and Jonny saw Angelina from a distance. Julie looked around to find herself, which made Jonny rush to the players' tunnel in a panic and rushed towards the locker room.

　The second update, there will be two updates today, I will save some manuscripts later, in case only one chapter will be updated like this Tuesday.
