On September 15th, the Knicks’ closed training camp arrived.

At the same time, this day is also the day for taking makeup photos.

What Thomas meant was to take a single photo of Jiang Dalin.

Instead of following the tradition of the NBA, you have to make up the numbers to have a "Gemini", "Three Musketeers" or something like that.

What Thomas didn't expect was...

Jiang Dalin said, let the five starters take a makeup photo together...

This was beyond everyone's expectations.

The result was that Jiang Dalin, Marbury, Kenyon Dulin, Anderson, and David Lee took a makeup photo together.

Except for Marbury, everyone else looked shocked. They really didn't expect that they would become the core of the Knicks.

Especially David Lee.

He was only the 30th overall pick in the first round, how could he be so virtuous!

But one thing is for sure...

Everyone's views on Jiang Dalin must have changed.

This team is more united!

But there are always those reporters who don't want to see the Knicks having fun.

To put it bluntly, the forest is huge and there are all kinds of birds. If this were in Minnesota, there would only be a few newspapers that would not be able to report on the good aspects of the team. Who has the time to argue with each other!

Around this point, a reporter interviewed coach Lanny Wilkens and asked him what he thought of the Knicks' lineup depth. - Herb Williams ultimately failed to keep his position, and "Thousands of Victory Coaches" threatened

Erkens takes over.

From here we can see how special New York is. If it weren't for New York, how could a Hall of Fame head coach like him come back so easily?

What's more, he has just retired as the head coach of the New York Knicks.

It is worth mentioning that he originally picked peaches for Larry Brown, but now that Larry Brown has become notorious, the New York Knicks management can only invite Wilkens back.

Of course, there is another reason why Wilkens is willing to come back because...

Jiang Dalin!

As a head coach, who wouldn’t want to coach Jiang Dalin?

So when reporters asked if they were worried about the lineup for the new season,

Herb Williams replied: "Darling is undoubtedly the best player in the league. With him here, I believe there will be no problems like a weak bench..."

Look, this is the charm of Jiang Dalin. Even "Qian Sheng Coach" Wilkens would not hesitate to turn into a "licking dog" and lick him all over.

The reporter asked Jiang Dalin to comment on the summer signings. I thought he would complain, but unexpectedly Jiang Dalin gave a satisfactory answer.

"I am very satisfied with the team's lineup. The young players are motivated and the veterans are experienced. We can complement each other. After the trade, I am even more certain that the Knicks can reach the playoffs."

The reporter said: "But the outside world has commented that the Knicks' lineup is very poor. Aren't you afraid that your teammates' performance will not meet expectations?"

Jiang Dalin smiled and said: "Then I have to take on more responsibilities. I have confidence in them and more confidence in myself. And... I chose these people myself!"

The reporters were stunned, then looked ecstatic.

This is big news!

Jiang Dalin turned out to be involved in the Knicks’ reconstruction selection!

This was something that didn't happen often with the Knicks in the past.

Of course...

As far as Jiang Dalin's ability is concerned, he won 4 consecutive championships in 4 years in his rookie season. For such a player, let alone the Knicks, Los Angeles should also make him feel comfortable, and then give him some special treatment.

Wherever Jiang Dalin passed, it must have been as fast as a dragon crossing the river.

Someone immediately asked: "When you were with the Wizards, you entered and won the Finals for four consecutive years. Do you think you can continue to do such things?"

Jiang Dalin sneered and sneered unceremoniously: "What do you think? If you give Jordan this lineup, can he win the championship directly? Any team needs a certain amount of time to grow!"

He used Jordan as a shield again. If Jordan heard this, he would probably spit out a mouthful of blood.

No wonder, Michael Jordan would definitely say angrily: "Can you please not take me with you at this time!"

The reporter stopped talking, but Jiang Dalin had a "two-level reversal" at this time: "I believe that I can lead the team to the finals, even if it is only my first year with the New York Knicks!"

As soon as he said this, all the reporters' eyes were filled with light.

this……

this……

This is what you said!

The reporters recorded Jiang Dalin's remarks one by one.

Jiang Dalin was noncommittal, curled his lips and said nothing more.

The reporter asked again: "Who do you think are the main competitors in the Eastern Conference?"

"What?"

The reporter asked repeatedly: "Who do you think are the main competitors in the Eastern Conference?"

"The competitors in the East...are still the old guys. I must admit that this is the best chance they have to beat me, at least in the past four years...I hope they can seize the opportunity...become the number one

A team that defeated Jiang Dalin in the series!"

As Jiang Dalin finished speaking, the reporters couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

Jiang Dalin's words reminded them belatedly that Jiang Dalin had not lost in the playoffs after entering the league for 4 years. This is really...

How terrible!

The reporter's question continued: "If you meet the Wizards in the playoffs this year, do you think you can win?"

Jiang Dalin smiled and said: "They definitely don't want to meet me..."

Does anyone know him better than those guys on the Wizards?

Later, when the reporter told the Wizards team this statement, they had no intention of refuting it.

because……

Jiang Dalin is right!

They definitely don't want to meet Jiang Dalin.

Some people are good as teammates, but it's really hard to be opponents...

After the collision, I probably want to retire...

The reporters at the venue applauded together. After Jiang Dalin won 4 consecutive championships, he was undoubtedly much more domineering.

The reporter asked: "Many people think that the Knicks' defense is not good enough and it will be difficult to win in the new season. What do you think?"

"Whoever said these words, I hope they know the Knicks better than me, instead of just analyzing and analyzing based on paper strength... If you only look at paper strength, you can win the championship now!

"

When other players were interviewed, they all praised Jiang Dalin because they all knew what kind of position Jiang Dalin would have in the team in the new season.

Including Marbury,

"There is no doubt that Darling is the post player I want to partner with the most. I was very happy when I heard that he joined the Knicks. I think I kept emphasizing this at the press conference that day when he joined the Knicks. Everyone

They should all have an impression..."

When he finished speaking, the reporters at the scene looked at each other awkwardly.

They were busy recording Jiang Dalin that day. How could they recall what Marbury said?

Marbury didn't notice this, his eyes were full of longing now.

They say I suck at leading the team, now give me Jiang Dalin, and I will let all of you see what kind of player I am!

In short, on the first day of reporting, Jiang Dalin's status in the team has been completely established.

After the media reported Jiang Dalin's remarks, no one disbelieved them.

There is no way, they have been convinced, at least before the official start of this season, no matter what Jiang Dalin says, they will believe it.

They even felt that Jiang Dalin was too modest.

In their opinion, the Knicks can definitely win the championship directly!

Of course, for Jiang Dalin, the challenge begins from this moment.

After all, what you say must come true...

Since entering the league, he has always fulfilled his promises, and it has been like this until now. He has no intention of changing this.

The next day the Knicks held an open training session, and the training hall was packed with fans. This was the first time in several years. It can even be said that this situation has never happened in New York since Ewing served as the backdrop for so many years.

Jiang Dalin joined with a maximum salary, but for the Knicks, this is still a sure-profit deal. Now his commercial value has begun to show. The New York Times revealed that the team’s season ticket sales next season

Currently ranked first in the league, this is not something to be happy about for the New York Knicks, who have been ranked first all year round.

This record is very common...

This is also the most perverted place for New York fans...

No matter what the team's record is, no matter whether they are happy or unhappy, coming to watch the game is something that many New York fans are used to doing.

But once the package came out this time, if the Knicks management hadn't deliberately reserved some, they might have been sold out...

The highlight of the public training was the group match. Jiang Dalin did not disappoint the Knicks fans who supported him.

He and the newcomers were assigned to the white team, and they were unable to fight back against the blue team led by Marbury.

Even Lin Hong and David Lee, who are already confirmed starters for the new season, are all on the blue team.

But it was Jiang Dalin who managed to clear it up in three attempts.

In the final analysis, these insiders are too bad.

It is worth mentioning that people like Pachulia, because of the team's status, have never had a chance to face Jiang Dalin even though they have been in the league for so long.

It only took one round for Jiang Dalin to let him know why he could win 4 consecutive championships in 4 years with the Wizards.

As a "human shield" player, his ability to defend has always been his strength, but when facing Jiang Dalin, he couldn't even resist the second blow and was directly pushed away by Jiang Dalin...

In short, this game was completely unplayable. Although it was an open training camp, it was actually just a Jiang Dalin performance.

The New York fans at the scene gave huge cheers. New York, a big city, needs an overlord like Jiang Dalin to dominate!

They can't wait for the new season to start.

Of course, for the New York Knicks, they still have many problems to solve. They can't wait for the start of the new season and rely on Jiang Dalin to solve everything, right?

He can play 1 on 5, but it is impossible for him to play 1 on 5 for the entire playoffs in one season...

Shouldn't it be possible?

With the arrival of the preseason, the problems of the entire Knicks team have been exposed.

In October, the Knicks played 7 preseason games, and the results were not very good.

The Knicks' preseason tactics are very simple, that is, pick-and-roll. Jiang Dalin moves to the high post, Marbury plays the pick-and-roll and then breaks through with the ball, attracting double-teams and passing the ball. If no one double-teams him, he will play by himself.

Jiang Dalin follows up to catch the ball or makes a second attack.

Playing like this is naturally to make Marbury and the others feel comfortable first, and then slowly improve.

Jiang Dalin has enough confidence in his abilities. Even if he does not use the finishing method of holding the ball, he is still at the top level in the league.

But the problem is that once he comes off the court, the Knicks will immediately become unwatchable.

You can't stay out for 48 minutes, right?

The New York Knicks lost to the Nets 97-103 in the first game and lost to the Suns 93-97 in the second game.

The Knicks finally won Game 3, defeating the Cavaliers 92-75.

The Cavaliers have been hyped by the media all summer, believing that with the further growth of LeBron James, this team will become a powerful force in the Eastern Conference in the new season.

But the fact is that when meeting Jiang Dalin's team, even if there are not so many iron walls on the outside, LeBron James still has to lose.

In the fourth game, the Knicks defeated the Rockets who lacked Yao Ming. The inside advantage was very obvious, and Marbury's performance on the outside was better than that of Steve Francis.

After that, the Knicks lost consecutively to the Lakers, SuperSonics, and Warriors in the absence of O'Neal, ending the preseason with 2 wins and 5 losses.

This result has begun to arouse a lot of doubts from the outside world, thinking that even with Jiang Dalin, the Knicks will still be bad.

The voices of "Jiang Dalin can't save the Knicks" suddenly became overwhelming.

It was also after the end of the preseason that the first NBA strength rankings were released. The Knicks were underestimated by all experts, ranking only 19th in the league, and predicted that they would not make the playoffs. Even with this evaluation, many experts still think it is high.

Look at the Knicks.

Jiang Dalin's "Four Crowns" title seems useless at this moment.

There is no way, this Knicks does have more problems exposed, it is really not something that Jiang Dalin can solve alone...

It was also amid such turmoil that the Knicks also ushered in their first game of the new season.

It can be seen that everyone is very nervous. It is no wonder that after 7 games in the preseason, there are still doubts about this result from the outside world. - These players are basically unknown people in the league, and now they have come to the New York Knicks.

They were already under greater pressure than before, but now the outside world still looks down on them...

Stress is normal, not having stress is abnormal.

Jiang Dalin said directly: "Any team has a long way to go before winning the championship, and we are the same. For me, this season has just begun. I can accept any failure. I am a fourth-year player."

Champion, I can even afford to lose, so what do you guys who have nothing have to be nervous about?"

As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of laughter.

And laughter can naturally soothe the atmosphere of the entire team...

Wilkens stood aside and watched the change in the atmosphere, and couldn't help but nodded.

He suddenly felt that it was so easy to cooperate with Jiang Dalin.
