Basketball Fanatic: Genius Is on the Left

Zuo Li is telling the truth.

Training is still the main work of the Knicks in the next period of time, which is also the consensus he reached with the coaching staff and all the players before.

After all, there are a lot of rookies. Except for Randolph, everyone else is basically a rookie in the last three years. What a rookie needs is more games, more playing time, and more experience, so that they can grow.

Some fans will ask, you liar, didn't you say that the goal of this season is the finals? Why are you training again! ?

Of course!

The goals of training and the finals do not conflict.

On the contrary, only if the training is successful, the potential of these rookies is displayed, the spirit is also displayed, and the momentum is also fully played, then the Knicks will truly have the strength to compete for the championship this season!

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zuo Li didn't play very well in the first game, and he was obviously playing. Although the data is quite gorgeous, but looking at the passing, you can see that Zuo Li is really playing team basketball, and the purpose is to make the new players more. Join the team now.

Especially Curry.

No one knows the potential of Stephen Curry better than Zuo Li. The era he passed through was the era when Stephen Curry smashed the league. The whole league with one-handed three-pointers was shocked. But it doesn't matter!

The important thing is Curry's role. In this Knicks, Curry undoubtedly plays a key role.

From the perspective of the first game, Curry played well, scored 19 points and made three three-pointers, huh, the shooting rate is 50%, which is quite good for a rookie's first game. According to this, the best rookie is really There is a play.

After the game, Curry of course received more attention. In the NCAA, you can also say that he may not be physically fit, but in his debut, he scored 19 points and 7 assists, which is a slap in the face.

Strong sacrifice read sacrifice. So the remarks that the Knicks see heroes with their eyesight have begun to make a fuss again.

However, the rookie is still a rookie. After all, Curry didn't get Zuoli's sky-defying BUG ability, so in the second battle, on the 31st, in the second game of the regular season, against the Hornets led by Queen Paul, Curry encountered the first in his career. waterloo.

Since the 2008 season, Paul has undoubtedly reached the first peak of his career. During this period, Paul highlighted a problem of incomprehension and violence. Except for Deron, no one can really limit him. After all, he can shoot and shoot suddenly. Biography, small movements are dark and hidden, and trash talk is also very pleasant. Last season, Paul averaged 22.8+11 assists and 2.8 steals per game. He was selected for the first defense and has undoubtedly replaced Nash as the league's first point guard.

If this was in Zuo Li's era, when both of them were at their peak, they would basically meet a talented person, and their personal data would be indistinguishable.

But now, in the second game of his career, Curry meets Paul in his prime, and it is a matter of course to be educated.

In fact, in order to protect Curry, the Knicks sent Dragic and Belinelli to start the game, but it was useless. It was difficult for Dragic to get a bargain when he met Paul. Received 2 fouls, and Curry ushered in his first head-to-head confrontation with Paul.

Of course, the final result was not very good. Curry was completely suppressed. Throughout the game, Paul scored 28 points, 13 assists, 5 rebounds and 3 steals, shooting 48% from the field.

This time, Chapter 17 Si. And Curry only had 9 points, 4 assists, 1 steal and 5 turnovers, shooting 33% from the field.

In terms of personal data, Paul completely blasted Curry, and Curry's biggest weapon, the three-pointer, didn't work even when Paul kept looking for confrontation, only 1 of 4 shots.

But the Knicks still won. After all, the Hornets, who replaced Chandler and took Okafor, were no longer a threat to Zuo Li.

It is said that Okafor is an All-Star, and it is definitely profitable to exchange Chandler for the Hornets alone, but the Hornets ignore Paul's characteristics.

Throughout Paul's career, he has always been able to feed the average center into an All-Star, from Chandler of the Hornets, to Jordan of the Clippers, to Capela of the Rockets. This is not the case, so the most suitable for Paul is the physical fitness. A big man who can eat pie in the pick-and-roll, an insider like Okafor with solid footsteps and excellent personal offensive ability is at odds with Paul.

So this deal is a lose-lose situation. Although the outside world still regards the Hornets as a strong team in the West, Zuo Li knows that the Hornets are already rotten. When the tactics and players are not in harmony, the team has only one way .

Zuo Li was simply asking for anything in the interior. He hit 14 goals in 16 shots, including 8 dunks. Madison fans enjoyed a feast of dunks. He made 6 of 8 free throws and maintained the stability of the first game. Let Okafor be sent off for 6 fouls in the fourth quarter to show his dominance.

With 34 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists and 5 blocks in the game, Zuo Li temporarily occupies the top spot in the new season's highest scoring list.

And Randolph also scored a double-double of 20 points and 10 rebounds, and the Knicks scored 59-20 inside the Hornets.

In the end, they scored more than 120 points in two consecutive games with a score of 120-100, and defeated the Hornets with a big score of 20 points for two consecutive victories.

After the game, Zuo Li naturally occupied the C position. The media have discovered that, although a low-key summer has passed, the center of traffic is still Zuo Li.

Zuo Li's explosive style of play and more stable free throws have also become the focus of discussion. Barkley exclaimed: "This summer has brought Zuo Li's strength to a higher level."

And Smith also said: "Now it's time to weigh the consequences of the team that wants to implement Zuoli's slashing shark tactics."

Howard feels very awkward~www.readwn.com~ And Curry, as the Knicks' most ordinary player, has naturally received the 'care' of the media. The fiasco to Paul made many people think that Curry's level is just that, and now it is at most The level of a third-rate defender.

So Curry emo...

In the first game in November, against the 76ers on the road, Curry only had 9 shots, but only got 5 points, 4 assists, and 6 turnovers.

This also made the Knicks struggle a bit. Fortunately, at the last moment, Randolph made a foul with an inside tip-up and made 1 of 2 free throws, but Zuo Li picked up the rebound to complete the dunk.

The success of this round of playing an alternative 3-pointer also allowed the Knicks to win the 76ers 106-102 and get a thrilling three-game winning streak at the beginning.

Zuoli became the best player in the game with 28 points and 14 rebounds, Belinelli scored 18 points and 6 rebounds with 4 three-pointers and became the best player among the new recruits, and Danny Green successfully defended Iguodala at the last moment. also become a winner.

Under such circumstances, Curry naturally encountered some criticisms. Many people felt that he really couldn't adapt to the intensity of the NBA, and it would be fine if he didn't play Paul well. In this match, Zhu Holiday, who was also a rookie, didn't play. Outrageous.

Make a big tyrant. Some media said: "The Knicks should increase Dragic's playing time instead of letting Curry waste opportunities."

ESPN also said: "Curry seems to lack the means of confrontation, and his shooting is not good."

There are many such comments only on INS, which stimulates Curry's nerves even more, and Curry is also very worried that he will be replaced. After all, this guy Beverley is still waiting behind him.

However, Zuo Li and Coach D'Antoni didn't say anything, not even talk. It was business as usual, as if nothing had happened.
