Chapter 399 An pig is worse than a dog (please subscribe, please support)

It has tied the historical record of winning streak at the beginning of the game, and the next step is to surpass it. At the post-game press conference, Ke Yan made similar remarks: "Among the Knicks players, Curry and James will most likely be the best in 50 years."

100 years from now or even longer, players will be constantly mentioned, but others may not have the opportunity to carve their names into the history of the NBA. If you want to be constantly mentioned in the name of a team, I

I hope the team can do something big this season!”

In the ears of others, this probably means breaking the record of winning streak at the beginning, but Ke Yan's idea is not only to break the record of 15 consecutive wins at the beginning, but also to improve this result to a height that is difficult for latecomers to reach; at the same time,

Lay a foundation for the team to strive for the best record in the regular season.

Compared with the past, Ke Yan this season is "domineering". In addition to his excellent record and being unable to keep a low profile, he is also trying his best to compete with James for a sense of presence.

Maybe there may be some "judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart", but well, the opponent is James, who went beyond himself to intervene in the team's transactions during the offseason. If Ke Yan gives in, maybe James and his team will

The meeting has taken a step forward. So Ke Yan must stand up and tell everyone who has the final say about the Knicks.

The media, in addition to lamenting the strength of the Knicks, is also discussing which team is expected to give the Knicks their first defeat of the season. The Knicks' opponents in the next six games are the Trail Blazers, Timberwolves, and Nuggets.

, Pistons, Hawks, and Hornets. Among them, the Trail Blazers, Hawks, and Hornets basically do not have the strength to confront the Knicks head-on. Unless something happens to the Knicks themselves, there is a high probability that they can win.

The Timberwolves have a mediocre record, but the combination of Bynum and Love inside is very destructive and can suppress the Knicks' relatively weak inside. At the same time, Ty Lawson and Beasley on the outside also have certain abilities if they get upset.

Explosive power; and the Nuggets, the 18th opponent of the season, are a team that can truly go head-to-head with the Knicks!

Anthony has a high winning rate against James in his career, and he can consume James on the offensive end; Billups specializes in dealing with various dissatisfactions against young point guards, and Curry suffers from his strength against him; at the same time, the Nuggets "

"The Beast" has strong athletic ability, big defensive moves, and the "occasional All-Star" J.R. Smith, who is definitely an unstable factor.

It can be said that, looking at the entire league, if there is any team that Ke Yan least wants to encounter, it is the Nuggets.,,

Fortunately, it is indeed rare to encounter it!

...

On November 28, the Knicks visited the Rose Garden Arena to challenge the Portland Trail Blazers.

Compared with the "extraordinary potential" two years ago, the Blazers' young guard who once had high hopes has "died" from injuries.

Roy had part of his meniscus removed, and he had no advantage in athletic ability and was reduced to a pure floor player; Oden has been reimbursed for the season every year and has been basically given up by the team, although some fans argue that he was destroyed by injuries.

, but at most it can prevent him from being associated with Olowokandi and Kwame Brown. In essence, he is still a real "parallel import"; in addition, Bayless, Fernandez and others did not play well, Blake switched to the Lakers and pioneered.

The team is basically left with Aldridge alone struggling to support the team, and the team's second-in-command is even veteran Andre Miller, who is nearly 40 years old.

It is difficult for such a dilapidated Trail Blazers team to fight against the strong Knicks. Although the Knicks, who have won 15 consecutive victories, have become "the target of public criticism", including the referees who have strict requirements on them; even though Aldridge's team was blown away in this game.

The combination of Horford and West proved their ability by scoring 41 points and 13 rebounds. But all this was in vain in the face of the huge gap in strength between the two sides.

On the offensive end, the old Miller can support his output through his skillful skills and good static strength, but on the defensive end, he is really "played" by Curry in various ways, whether it is guarding off the ball or guarding the pick-and-roll.

Curry frequently finds opportunities to shoot from the outside.

Curry's touch was overwhelming, and the entire Knicks team also cooperated with Curry to "brush up data" and strive to break the record. In the whole game, Curry made 12 of 17 shots from outside, and hit 12 three-pointers, which tied the NBA's historical record.

Scored 54 points and defeated the Trail Blazers.

"The important thing is that we won! The Knicks created the best start in NBA history, which is much more important than me scoring 12 three-pointers! Moreover, I am still young, and I am confident that I can break more in the future.

record, just like my teammate LeBron." Facing reporters' questions, Curry responded with high emotional intelligence.

In the "overt and covert struggle" between Ke Yan and James, Curry is more supportive of Ke Yan, but he has no plans to compete with James at this stage. His only hope is to help the team achieve good results.

Ke Yan expressed his support for McMillan: "Any coach who encounters Nate's situation will have a difficult time. In my last year with the Hawks, when I learned that Garnett was reimbursed for the season, I knew that the team would not be able to win this season.

There is a high probability that I will not be able to complete three consecutive championships. This is also a regret of mine!"

"Are you confident that you can win three consecutive championships with the Knicks?"

"Not1, Not2, Not 3...Not7" Ke Yan imitated James, amusing the reporters at the scene, and then said seriously, "I haven't won a championship now. You asked me to look forward to three consecutive championships. I am very scared."

"The temporary good times really don't mean that we have become invincible. On the contrary, we are now being studied under a microscope. In the following seasons, we will encounter more challenges."

...

On the last day of November, the Knicks continued their road trip and came to Target Center to face the Timberwolves.

According to previous media predictions, the Timberwolves should be a stumbling block on the Knicks' winning streak. Although they are not strong enough to compete with the Knicks, after all, the lineup is somewhat "restrained". Both fans and the league are still looking forward to the Timberwolves.

Can cause some trouble for the Knicks.

However, the media is a little too optimistic about the inside combination of Bynum + Love. It is still unknown whether they can suppress Horford and West on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, facing Curry's small attack, they can only be "

"Take a break, stand at attention, and walk in unison"! I was teased in various ways.

The Timberwolves have been rebuilding for so many years, and they have never lacked talent. What they lack is a winning culture. Once they enter adversity, the young players act as if they don't know how to play, and quickly enter the stage of "earning statistics by themselves".

Even though the referee gave the Timberwolves a lot of free throws, they still couldn't survive the third quarter. Ke Yan also replaced Curry, James and others at the 9th minute of the third quarter to prepare for a tough battle at the Pepsi Center the next day.

However, just as Curry and his teammates were celebrating the victory on the bench, a tragedy happened on the court. During a breakthrough after a pick-and-roll, Bynum put his elbow on Holiday's ribs, directly

He pushed Brother Holiday to the ground and was in so much pain that he couldn't get up.

Although there is a positional competition with Holiday, and he has even considered leaving the team, Matthews, Holiday, and Curry were all brought back and cultivated by Ke Yan in the same draft. Last season, Holiday served as

As a first-round pick, I had no complaints about playing Matthews as a substitute. The three of them had a really good relationship. Matthews suddenly jumped up from the ground, rushed towards Bynum, pushed the opponent to the ground with a hateful push.

"Wesley, calm down!" Love hugged Holiday. At this time, it was the hardest thing for him to do.

No matter how bad Bynum is, he is still his teammate, but Holiday was also his comrade who worked hard together last season!

Other players from both sides quickly gathered around, and the referee controlled the scene with the help of the staff, and then sent Bynum off the field without hesitation.

When he came off the court, Bynum showed no regrets and kept waving his hands upward to incite the fans.

"This is forcing me to do something dirty!" Ke Yan cursed, determined to defeat Bynum every time he saw him in the future.

The team doctor pushed Holiday into the ambulance on a stretcher cart, preparing to go to the hospital for examination. However, on the passage out of the target center, they were told that the door was locked and they needed to take another exit.

This approach can only be described as "disgusting".

Holiday was injured, Matthews stepped up and pushed Bynum as a counterattack, and Curry asked to play to help his good friend vent his anger!

Ke Yan originally planned to play Jeremy Lin to survive the rest of the game and settle the score with the Timberwolves later, but seeing the fierce fighting spirit radiating from Curry's body, he still agreed to Curry's request to play.

After coming on the court, Curry also became aggressive, shooting inside and outside frequently and hitting frequently; and the referee also "protected" Curry at this time, coming to the Timberwolves' bench and making repeated orders to prevent the Timberwolves from taking any lethal measures against Curry.

At the same time, the Timberwolves players on the court were repeatedly told to "play well".

In the final quarter of the game, Curry scored 17 points in a single quarter, increasing his total score by 47 points. He scored "50+40" in two consecutive games, which has not been achieved by many in history.

But these are not important. The entire Knicks team is paying more attention to Holiday's injury, especially Ke Yan. He knows that Elvis Presley and Gerald Wallace broke his ribs when Bynum elbowed him.

The fallen ribs are directly inserted into the lungs, resulting in a decrease in cardiopulmonary function and ultimately serious impairment of exercise ability!

Holiday's situation may not be as serious as Wallace's, but it is not serious at all. Ke Yan still feels a little sorry for the player he selected.

"Forgiving the perpetrator is additional harm to the victim! I hope the league will severely punish Bynum as a warning to others!" At the post-game press conference, Ke Yan publicly dissed Bynum and proposed severe punishment. "Otherwise, there will be more and more

The more basketball talent there is on some killer moves!"
