Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

The Knicks lost, and it was dawn!

This is the inner monologue of all fans who hate the Knicks and Zuoli after watching this game.

Since the Knicks lost to the Bulls in December last year, they have won eight games in a row, which also spanned Christmas and New Year's Eve. For Heizi, every day has been like a year.

In the three games in the past few days, Heizi never failed in every game and did reverse sit-ups with the fans in the coffin. At one time, they all thought that the opportunity had come, but in the end they were nailed in the coffin. This is so painful.

Now! It's finally their turn to appear!

"Come on!"

Many keyboard warriors picked up their weapons and prepared to output. Of course, the first to bear the brunt was Zuo Li, who was also their biggest target.

But looking at Zuoli's statistics for this game: 41 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists and 6 blocks, 58% field goal percentage, 75% free throw percentage, 50% three-point shooting percentage, 3 turnovers, 4 fouls, and a single

20 points in a quarter, the 21st time in his career that he scored 20 points in a single quarter and ranked first among current players...

This is also Zuo Li's fourth consecutive game with 40,155. This is the first time in history. After all, there was no block data in Chamberlain and Russell's era, and with complete statistical data, no one has ever played like this in four consecutive games.

data.

Even if we only look at the consecutive 40 games, this is Zuo Li's fourth consecutive game with 40 points. Only Kobe Bryant, the original Peter Pan, can suppress Zuo Li in nine consecutive games.

Zuo Hei: "..."

Hiss~!

This data... seems a bit good!

Damn it! Don’t give us a chance to be evil!

The Zuohei people were all depressed. They finally caught the Knicks losing, but Zuo Li's performance turned out to be flawless.

Not only is there no problem, Zuo Li's performance in this game was as good as ever. It can be said that he is the savior of the Knicks. The only problem may be those three mistakes. But this number is nothing among all players in the league. It is just a comparison.

The leftists just make a lot of mistakes.

Anyone who has watched this game knows that if it weren't for Zuo Li... the Knicks would not have played until the last moment.

Even the Philadelphia coach was full of praise for Zuo Li after the game... thinking that Zuo Li is a phenomenal player.

Iverson even bluntly said that Zuo Li was the top three player who faced the most threats in the paint in his career, tied with O'Neal and Karl Malone.

Being able to be compared with these two people is enough to show Iverson's recognition of Zuo Li.

The media also believed that the Knicks lost this game, but their performance was actually better than the previous game.

The main reason for the loss was that the 76ers at home were like a god. The basket was as wide as the ocean. Five people on the team scored in double figures. Iguodala scored 28 points and 10 rebounds, and also contributed one.

A dunk that was enough to rank among the top five today, Iverson also had an incredible double-double of 18 points and 11 assists. This was also Iverson's best performance since returning to Philadelphia.

Although the Knicks are not feeling good, the recovery of all players is reflected in the defensive end. Several strong players have finally found some feeling. Of course, the feeling on the offensive end still needs to be found.

But having said that, the Zuohei people were also slightly frustrated by Zuo Li's data, but don't underestimate the ability of the keyboard warrior, there is always something like angle.

So soon, all kinds of comments came out on the Internet, such as "mileage is sad", "only cares about personal data", "king of empty hacking" and so on.

The Knicks have also been labeled as a fake strong team, and the media's clumsy nature has been fully exposed.

Valley bird

Of course, according to the media, the Knicks have been playing teams that are on the verge of the playoffs or even unable to make the playoffs at all. If they are struggling like this, what is this other than a pseudo-strong team?

Well, it's reasonable and convincing.

They seem to have forgotten when the Knicks defeated major teams before...

Naturally, Zuo Li couldn't escape the siege of reporters. Although Zuo Li didn't attend the press conference after the game against the 76ers, reporters still found an opportunity before the game between the Knicks and the Raptors.

"What? What's the opinion? To the team? To myself?"

"Please...we have only lost four games so far...do you need any opinions? Don't you think we are too anxious?" Zuo Li couldn't laugh or cry. Is the Knicks traffic so big now? Losing just one regular season game is enough. There was such a big movement, and I was drunk.

"If you want me to tell you, just relax and keep reading. Trust me, everything is under control."

Zuo Li said.

Of course he knows that the team's recent state is average, but isn't this a normal thing in a season? Even the Bulls with 72 wins cannot be online for 82 games, not to mention that they are far inferior to the original Bulls and are a bit volatile. Isn't that normal?

Moreover, the Knicks are a team that cannot get any younger. It is acceptable for the players to be unstable. This is the process of growth.

As for why we lost and why our performance was not as good as last year, the reason is very simple. It was because we hit a wall!

Because of the Knicks' outstanding performance, many people may have forgotten that they are a team dominated by young people. Curry, Danny Green, and Beverley are all rookies this year. They are also important strengths of the Knicks. Especially Danny Green, he has a very important responsibility in attacking the three-pointer and defending the opponent's core.

Not to mention Curry, he is now the Knicks' third leading scorer, second only to Zuo Li and Randolph.

The Knicks' ability to play like this is inseparable from their performance.

At this stage, after entering the league for more than two months, it happens to be the time when the rookie wall occurs most often. Looking at the league, all rookies are more or less affected.

It was obvious during the training that Curry and others were obviously out of shape, and D'Antoni also took advantage of the situation and made some adjustments.

This is the key to the Knicks' volatility.

Coupled with the fact that others have been mediocre recently, Zuo Li needs to step up more. This is the truth of these games.

It's very simple. It's not complicated at all, and there are no conspiracy theories. It's just the Knicks' adjustment stage.

Losing is not unacceptable. Isn't it normal to lose one game after eight consecutive wins? Besides, they are not prepared to win many wins. It would be nice to get first place in the Eastern Conference. It's not a big deal if they don't get it. It wasn't the same last year. Have you reached the finals?

In short, everything is normal within the Knicks, and the comments from the outside are nothing more than someone taking the lead and deliberately making up. Zuo Li doesn't even have the desire to refute. If the reporters hadn't been persistent, he wouldn't have paid attention to it.

Of course, the Knicks still need to further adjust their status. Before the All-Star Game, they need to let these rookies overcome the rookie wall, while also helping others find their feel and status.

So in this game against the Raptors, the Knicks, who returned to their home court, made a very bold attempt.

At 1 minute and 12 seconds into the game, Bosh had just committed a foul on Zuo Li. As a result, D'Antoni immediately requested a substitution.

On the sidelines, five people were waiting to play!
