Chapter 212 Competition of Scores

Many people have expected the performance of the Knicks. After all, Zhang Chen is there, and there are some famous people in the lineup.

But what many people didn't expect is that not only Billups has shown an extremely stable high level, but the two rookies Stoudemire and Boozer have also performed very well, and there is also the addition of the trade with the 76ers. Head Raja Bell is also remarkable.

At this time, the performance of Mutombo, who was bought at a big price, was only average, so no one cared.

The Knicks' gamble-style trades this summer have a half-and-half success rate. The key is that those seemingly ordinary trades now seem to be too worthwhile.

The main force and rotation can both attack and defend. In the fourth game, when they met the Bucks who disbanded the three musketeers due to internal strife, they naturally won easily.

In addition to the team's results, Zhang Chen's current personal data is 35+10+7. Their current lineup does not require him to spend a lot of energy on the rebounds, and it also shows that Te can devote more energy to offense.

Billups has indeed shown a high ability, but when the Timberwolves play as a substitute or as the main force, he is not the first point of the team organization, so although his organizational ability is good, he is now the No. [-] point of the Knicks organization. It's still Zhang Chen at all, and Billups is more comfortable with this style of play. Whether to change it in the future depends on the team's tactical needs.

Meeting the Kings on the 7th, Zhang Chen was very excited. He found that he finally didn't care about this kind of team with inside and offense. Now the Knicks' defense, no matter what Princeton you have, there are defensive masters on the outside and strong shot blocks on the inside. Will, but the Kings' defense can't stop them.

Although the current lineup is not Zhang Chen's most perfect existence, he was directly involved in the formation. The selection of other players fully considered his ability, which is why the team was able to display its combat effectiveness so quickly.

There are a few outside lines that can shoot three-pointers and defend very well, inside lines that can attack and inside lines that can defend, and when Zhang Chen goes down to rest, there are also some players who can hold the ball on the field, which is already perfect under the current situation.

Of course, the running-in is still going on. The Knicks have not fully exerted everyone's strength now, but why they can win consecutively at the beginning is because of defense.

Defense is more about hard work and concentration. Their defensive system has not been completed yet, but many of their players know how to make offensive players uncomfortable, so many other teams are also running in , they perform stronger.

As far as New York's schedule this season is concerned, there are a lot of home games in the first half, which also made fans in this city quickly like this brand new Knicks.

The team played triumphant songs all the way, and soon achieved 15 consecutive victories, and they also became the new enemy of the league.

Zhang Chen also absorbed the lessons of last season's injury, paid attention to the balance between work and rest, and always kept his body in a relatively good state.

Another year's All-Star voting has begun, Zhang Chen is still the darling of the fans, because he is invincible, so more fans love him than hate him, and his popularity goes beyond basketball.

Similarly, there are many people who want to defeat him.

"As long as I think, I can get more points than him." When the Magic came to visit, McGrady said confidently that the Magic's start this season can only be regarded as quite satisfactory, but McGrady's scoring ability is explosive. up.

The two-year stoppage in the first round of the playoffs made him depressed, and the Magic did not satisfy him with a deal, so he started a crazy scoring mode, at least to be the strongest in a certain aspect, this is McGrady's idea.

He thinks he can do it, but Zhang Chen has scored more points than him this season. He is now ranked second in the scoring list, 1.3 points behind Zhang Chen. If he can beat Zhang Chen in this game against the Knicks For the top spot, he's sure to receive a wonderful compliment.

The Magic lineup has not changed much. For the Knicks, as long as McGrady is defended to death, winning the game will not be difficult. In the past, Zhang Chen would definitely not care about scoring. it is good.

But this season, Zhang Chen has ambitions for the scoring champion. There are still some honors he has not won, among which the scoring champion and the regular season MVP are what he is most interested in.

Therefore, when facing the reporter's pre-match interview, he laughed, "Under my defense, no one can score more points than me, because they can't defend me."

Now, no matter whether he is humble or not, everyone will stare at him.

But if you are not humble, you need to do what you say. Although it is not a big problem to make a big mouth, Zhang Chen himself does not like it.

"Directly pushed McGrady to complete the layup, and Zhang Chen played very resolutely as soon as he came up. Could it be because of the remarks before the game? It seems that we can see a wonderful offensive battle in this game."

"McGrady received a pass from his teammate. He will definitely find his way back. This season, his firepower is indeed very strong. It is difficult for his shooting defenders to interfere. The swaying pull-up... Blocking, incredible, Zhang Chen He actually blocked McGrady's shot head-on."

"One-stop dunks, Madison Square Garden boiled, and Zhang Chen's fighting spirit exploded."

Zhang Chen is interested in fighting McGrady, but he needs to win. In addition to the team and personal victory, he also needs to completely suppress the opponent.

After becoming the boss, McGrady became a little lazy. Zhang Chen wanted to wake him up or destroy him, so he used the skills of absolute control from the beginning. When he arrived in New York, he was more successful than before. To be honest, he didn't want to Running around, he can get everything he can get in basketball as long as he wins here.

After the first ball was blocked, McGrady's heart was really cold. Fortunately, such things did not happen continuously, otherwise this game would not be able to be played.

But obviously, for him who shoots more shots in the attack, Zhang Chen must have disrupted his rhythm. The next few shots felt average. When he hit the second ball, Zhang Chen already took It's 11 minutes.

"Give up, you are not my opponent."

After Zhang Chen's habitual trash talking, he used his physical advantage to push away McGrady and hit 2 points. The Magic's help defense is really bad. After avoiding the frontal defensive players, they can almost get whatever they want.

The Knicks are completely different. Not to mention defensive masters like Mutombo and Camby, even Stoudemire and Boozer have been instilled in the team with the creed of defense first. The opponents in the basket will not be ambiguous.

So don't say that there are not many players like McGrady who hit the basket, even players who mainly hit the basket are difficult to easily succeed in New York's three-second zone.

At the end of the first quarter, Zhang Chen had already scored 20 points, while McGrady still had 4 points. In addition to the difference in scoring methods and defensive abilities between the two sides, the Knicks' overall defense is also a key factor.

"Zhang, just like that kid's sissy, she dared to speak loudly before the game, so don't show mercy when you blow him up."

Compared to the joy on the Knicks side, McGrady almost gritted his teeth on the Magic side.

He can't just fail like this, there must be something else to do. After thinking about it, he made a choice that some people can't understand. In order to score with all his strength, he decided to be lazy on the defensive end. Anyway, he just talked about scoring before. If he puts all his energy on scoring, even if he can't surpass the opponent, he won't want to be too far behind.

When encountering such a thing, McGrady's thoughts are more realistic. As for the team's victory or defeat, he can think too much from the beginning.

After putting all his energy into the offense, he really gained something on the offensive end. After all, his scoring ability is now at the forefront of the league.

Zhang Chen also noticed the change in the opponent. His choice was to work harder on the defensive end.

In his basketball, both offense and defense are indispensable. Only with both offense and defense is a complete basketball. It is impossible to win the final victory by going slanted.

However, facing opponents who chose to give up defense, his interest has also weakened a little, and he should rest when it is time to rest. Opponents who do not go all out cannot keep him on the court.

"McGrady hit a three-pointer, and his score reached 16 points, but Zhang Chen, who just went down to rest, has already scored 40 points. How many points we can score is worth looking forward to.”

At halftime, the Knicks had a 15-point lead.

When he played again, Zhang Chen had no more worries.

"Three-pointers, long-distance three-pointers, we all know that Zhang Chen has this ability, he has already scored 50 points, and the game is still in the third quarter."

"McGrady's shot was a bit too hasty this time, and the Magic are already in a bit of confusion."

In the fourth quarter, because Zhang Chen and McGrady's soaring points had different effects on the two teams, the Knicks had already led by 20 points, and the rest of the time was almost garbage time.

"Zhang, your hand feeling today is not bad. If there are two overtimes, maybe you can create a new historical record."

"Impossible, how could there be overtime for the Magic this time."

In the middle of the fourth quarter, Tracy McGrady, who scored 29 points, chose to rest, and the Magic replaced the bench, which seemed to have given up the game.

Under the envious and regretful eyes of his teammates, Zhang Chen returned to the bench with 75 points.

After this game, his scoring average will rise by another two points, and his position on the scoring list will become even more unbreakable.

105:87, the Knicks won another big victory.

After such a victory, there are still reporters picking at the bones.

When faced with the question of whether to score points, Zhang Chen smiled happily, "Score 70+, and then lead the team to a wonderful victory, who would not want to score points like this."

Because of victory, it is justified.
