"Oh ho ho! Facing the two defenses, Wang chose the most manly way, a violent one-two dunk!"
In the TNT live broadcast booth, Barkley was so excited that he patted his belly, and the sound of "papapapa" was imaginative.
"Charles, have you noticed? The king seems to be a little heavier this season, almost close to 135 kilograms!" Kenny Smith analyzed.
"Wang's rookie physical examination report shows that he weighs 130 kilograms. With his frame, it is entirely possible for him to gain 5 kilograms in one season." Barkley said.
"This is what surprised me the most. After gaining 5 kilograms of weight, his movement speed didn't drop. It's incredible!" Smith exclaimed.
"Wang's current offensive performance is obviously more relaxed than last season. I have a hunch that his scoring average this season will definitely exceed 25+. As long as he wants to... God, he is among the first-class scorers, and He’s only in second grade!”
On the court, the two sides were tied at 47:47.
After returning from the timeout, he was dunked one or two times. The morale of the Knicks team was visibly depressed.
Since then, Anthony has reduced his attack on the basket and focused on outside jumpers.
After getting the ball, he gradually gave up the idea of leaping over Wang Zelin, and directly attacked the basket and quickly dropped. Instead, he mainly focused on shooting and running without the ball.
Later, Kenyon Martin attacked under the basket, and Wang Zelin once again blocked the shot. After that, the Knicks basically focused on outside shots. Even Kenyon Martin and Andrea Bargnani had to pull out to shoot.
More than two minutes after the official timeout ended quickly. At the end of the first half, at 54:50, the Trail Blazers led by 4 points away from home.
The Knicks' performance tonight was very similar to the game against the Timberwolves. When the main players were absent due to injuries, Anthony was the only one who could maintain a high level of performance.
As for others, their shooting touch is average and their scoring efficiency is very low.
This is Terry Stotts' strategy tonight, stick to the other Knicks players and let Anthony go it alone.
In his opinion, Anthony's shortcomings are very obvious, including being blind, prone to aggression, not fond of passing the ball, and having an average defensive attitude...
It can be said that although Anthony is known as an offensive kaleidoscope, his offensive threat to a team is far less than that of Kobe, Durant and others who are also the league's super scorers.
Especially Kobe, even in the period after the Achilles tendon exercise, when his body could no longer keep up with his heart that wanted to move forward, Kobe's attitude on the defensive end was still very correct.
At least, they are serious about defending well.
Anthony is one of those people who obviously has the ability to do the dirty work of defense, but he still can't let go of his body to do these things...
Obviously if he does it, it is possible to make the team better!
The most important thing is that whether in the hearts of the Trail Blazers coaching staff or the majority of fans, Anthony's offensive threat is always incomparable to Kobe.
So far in his career, Anthony's highest scoring record in a single game is only 50 points, even in three games.
On the other hand, Kobe had 4 consecutive 50+ games in one season alone, which was more than Anthony's eleven regular season seasons.
It is reported that since entering the NBA in 1996, Kobe has scored 50+ points in a single game more than 20 times, ranking third in history, second only to the ancient mythical beast Wilt Chamberlain's 118 times and the basketball god Air Jordan's 31 times.
Anthony didn't rest for a minute in the first half. He made 9 of 19 shots and scored 25 points and 7 rebounds. He scored half of the team's points alone and shot 47.3% from the field, which is not bad.
But it is quite difficult to maintain such offensive efficiency in the second half.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the Trail Blazers had just played back-to-back games two days ago, even though they won in the end, today's course trip left them with an average feel and average excitement.
Otherwise, with the Knicks' current poor defense, how could the point difference be only 4 points.
Wang Zelin made 4 of 6 in the first quarter, 2 of 3 free throws, and scored 10 points, 4 rebounds, and 3 blocks. In the second quarter, he scored 4 points, 2 baskets, and 1 block in three minutes. In the half, he scored 14 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 blocks. He worked very efficiently. If so, he is the best in the game!
Came back at halftime and came on as a substitute.
The lineup sent by the Knicks is Andrea Bargnani, Stoudemire, Jordan Jr. Smith, former Lakers champion Ci Shiping, and Pablo Prigioni.
One thing needs to be said here. Due to too many personnel absences, the Knicks currently have only 9 people available on the team, which is indeed a bit sad.
The Trail Blazers have the inside combination of Kevin Garnett + Yi Jianlian, and the outside trio of Mo Williams, Connett Lee, and Will Barton.
If Stoudemire is still healthy, he might still be able to play.
But the problem is that this guy came to the Big Apple and played well for a year and a half, and then his cash flow began to collapse.
After three games in the new season, the scoring average has exceeded double digits, living up to the dominance of 25 points and 8 rebounds per game that year.
When his offensive ability plummeted and his defensive ability was not much, Stoudemire's position in the Knicks team became increasingly embarrassing. His practicality on the court was not as good as that of Kevin Garnett, who was several years older than him!
From the defender combination, to the striker, to the inside combination, they suppress the opponent in all directions, even wider than the gap between the main players of both sides.
14:5, half a quarter, the Trail Blazers won by 9 points.
In the second half of the quarter, Anthony couldn't stand it anymore and was ready to go up and finish the second half.
"King, Nicholas, come on."
When the Knicks called a timeout, coach Terry quickly made substitution arrangements, replacing Kevin Garnett and Will Barton with Wang Zelin and Batum.
Garnett performed well in the first half of the quarter. Not only did he score 2+1 at the basket and score 3 points, but he also gave Stoudemire a big block on the defensive end.
On the other hand, the younger Will Barton failed to seize two open opportunities, which made Mo Williams a little disappointed. What a good two assists data, just gone.
The Knicks called a timeout, and Coach Terry didn't have to think about it. He knew that the opponent would definitely replace Anthony on the court to maintain the situation, so he simply made a substitution, replacing the team's two core defensive cores, one inside and one outside.
Tianchao Live Broadcast Seat.
"Fans, the scene we most want to see happened. During the timeout called by the Knicks coach, the Trail Blazers also made substitution arrangements. Veteran Garnett and young player Patton were replaced. King and Batumuti Come up..."
"Have you seen it? After three years, two Chinese players once again appeared in the NBA regular season. The last time was the last Yao Yi duel in the 2010~2011 season; this time, on the court Two Chinese players belong to the same team!"
Through the communication equipment, Yu Jia spread what happened on the field to the country in one breath.
At the same time, fans on the other side of the ocean who were watching the game began to get excited. Many media also updated the news immediately, and the search index for the game soared.
On the Trail Blazers bench, Wang Zelin and Yi Jianlian fist bumped and played together.
"That's right, let's look forward to the first regular season cooperation between Zelin and Arab League!"
Director Zhang couldn't help but feel deeply moved by this situation and explained emotionally.
"A-Lian felt average today. He made 1 of 3 shots, 1 of 1 free throw, and scored 3 points and 1 rebound. His efficiency was a little worse than the previous game, but he was still on the court, which shows that he is in the Trail Blazers' bench. I think I've finally stood firm." Yu Jia said with a smile.
"A-Lian should be on his feet. He has played more than 15 minutes in these games and averaged 6+3 per game. As a rotation player, his statistics are completely worthy of his playing time, which is very good. I hope he gets better and better as he plays, and his playing time will break through as soon as possible. 20 minutes, this will be more conducive to him getting the next contract in two years." Zhang Li said.
Back on the court, Knicks served a baseline kick.
For the Knicks, substitute point guard Pablo continues to play. In fact, whether it is him or main point guard Binoy Udri, the first task on the field is to hand the ball to Anthony. It doesn't matter who comes.
"Cameron, I need you to score! I believe you have this energy in your body, just like Kobe Bryant. So, tell me loudly, can you do it?"
Before taking the court, the new Knicks head coach Fisher warned.
Not to mention the professionalism of the head coach, at least in terms of chicken soup for the soul, the veteran who is just starting out in the coaching world is also a good player in various ways.
Sure enough, when he heard the head coach directly comparing himself with Los Angeles No. 24, Anthony suddenly felt like he was getting a shot of blood and shouted: "Of course, no problem, Mr. Derek!"
"Okay! Very energetic! Let's play!"
Fisher stood up on his toes and patted Anthony's shoulder gently, his eyes full of recognition and expectation.
After serving, Pablo advanced the paper money factory with the ball, and Anthony asked for it on the left three-point line.
Pablo didn't dare to make any more moves and immediately handed over the ball.
Anthony takes the ball and habitually poses as a triple threat, ready to break through.
In the first half, he showed his touch and confidence, so he directly pulled one on Batum's head.
"What?"
Seeing Anthony retract his right foot, Batum had a bad idea in his mind. When he saw Anthony take off, he suddenly realized and rushed forward.
But it's too late.
The so-called dry pull, the desired effect is to catch people off guard.
When facing a true pull-up master, no matter how good the defense is, it is in vain. The only thing the defensive players can do is to hope that the offensive team will not feel good.
Otherwise, the dry pull would not have become McGrady's signature trump card at the top.
Batum hopes to take a look at the basketball flying in the sky, but unfortunately, Anthony's hand is quite hot now...
"Uh-huh!"
The basketball passed through the net with a splash, causing a splash of water.
Three point hit!
68:58, the score difference is close to 10 points.
"Carmelo~Anthony!!!"
The DJ on the scene roared with all his strength.
"Roar!!!"
When returning to defense, Anthony showed his signature "three-point headshot" celebration, which caused a burst of cheers from the fans.
Damn, is this the unsolvable problem of a super scorer?
How terrible!
Three meters away from Batum, Wang Zelin felt a hint of despair in Batum's expression.
"Why are you still stupid? Get back on defense! Don't tell me that a mere three-pointer will make you lose your fighting spirit."
Wang Zelin stepped forward and slapped Batum hard on the butt.
"hiss!"
Batum took a breath, then glanced at Anthony's back, gritted his teeth and followed with red eyes.
Trail Blazers offense.
Mo Williams quickly got down with the ball, used Wang Zelin's pick-and-roll cover to get rid of Pablo, and went straight into the penalty area.
At this time, he only has eyes for the basket!
"Hey man, I didn't say it, our tactical arrangements don't seem to be like this!"
Wang Zelin, who was left open in the high post, was about to receive Mo Williams' back pass and shoot, but found that the latter had already rushed towards the penalty area...
He complained in his heart, but he still hurriedly followed. If Mo Williams failed to get in, he would still have to help wipe his butt!
Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the basket, when everyone thought that Mo Williams was going to make a layup, this guy made a cool move and stopped for a short-range jump shot...
Stoudemire, who was staying under the basket, didn't expect his opponent to make this move. He was stunned and didn't move, which also showed that his defensive attitude and defensive habits were really average.
There is no way. When Stoudemire was in the Suns, his main responsibility was to carry out offense. On the defensive end, he had the all-around warrior Shawn Marion to help him.
However, Stoudemire's lack of movement does not mean that other players did not move either.
When the Knicks' basket was in danger, a plump and strong man rushed over. Wearing a blue No. 7 jersey, it was Anthony.
At this moment, Anthony's big hand suddenly appeared above Mo Williams' head. The latter was so frightened that he quickly adjusted his angle and narrowly avoided the block.
"Duang!"
As a result, the ball was completely broken.
"Tch, let's see who dares to say that I don't defend well!"
Anthony was feeling happy and quickly turned around, preparing to collect the defensive rebound.
"careful!"
Andrea Abagnani, who was facing away from the basket, had a look of horror on his face and yelled.
"Be careful! Be careful about what?"
As soon as Anthony had this idea, a huge force struck him from behind, making him unsteady and staggering back to the sidelines.
"boom!"
Anthony recognized it, it was the sound of the basket being smashed.
Looking back, Trail Blazers No. 36 was hanging on the basket.
The scene in front of me is so familiar, and the dunk at the end of the second quarter is so imaginary!
I...have become one of the top five background boards again!
Based on his and Wang Zelin's popularity, Anthony can guarantee that the latter's previous dunk and the current make-up dunk are definitely among the top five goals of the day.
