Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

"Huh~!"

A sigh, a goal.

Standing on the free throw line, Zuo Li did not disappoint the audience, or even the Knicks and his fans around the world. At the critical moment, he made two free throws.

The referee stopped the game. Of course, don’t get me wrong. Unlike when Kobe broke Jordan’s scoring record in the future, the referee actively stopped the game. This time it was D’Antoni who took the initiative to call a timeout, because this was not a record moment for the entire league, but

, this is a record moment that belongs to the Knicks and New York.

As the points in the points match flickered, the single digit reached 3, and combined with the tens and hundreds, the Knicks' highest regular season scoring record appeared in front of people.

153 points!

In the history of the Knicks, the highest score in a single regular season game is 152 points. That was achieved in the distant 1959-1960 season against Syracuse.

Of course, this score is not enough to rank among the league's teams' highest scores in a single game during the regular season. Currently, the highest score for an NBA team in a single game is still the Pistons' 186 points, followed by the Nuggets' 184 points.

; These two scores come from the same game. On the night of 1983, the two teams battled in three overtimes to determine the winner. In the end, the Pistons defeated the Nuggets in three overtimes and left the NBA with a regular season team that has survived to this day.

Single game scoring record.

The single-game team scoring record in the new century belongs to the Knicks' opponent Suns today. On December 8, 2006, after two overtime battles, the Suns finally defeated the Nets 161-157. That game was played by D'Antoni.

The ultimate secret of the Suns, their three-point shooting percentage at their peak reached 54.8%, 17 of 31 shots in the game, and 43 assists in the game also showed the true meaning of team basketball.

Of course, at that time, I also left the impression on others that I could only attack.

That was also the most promising year for the Suns, but it was a pity that they failed to seize the opportunity.

Opportunities are like this. They pass by in a blink of an eye. One year's mistakes may be lifelong regrets. Four years have passed in the blink of an eye, and things have changed. Today's sun is no longer the sun it was before, and although D'Antoni is not the same D'Antoni,

But he still has the ability to lead the team to play classic games.

At this time, the Suns became a supporting role in the story. Although they also scored 128 points, they could only watch the Knicks, who were the protagonists tonight, celebrate wildly.

Zuo Li, who was the main contributor tonight, was replaced by the German coach. Knicks fans also celebrated Zuo Li with the warmest cheers.

"Left to the left! Stand to the left! Stand to the left!"

"mvp! mvp! mvp!"

The Suns did not choose to play out the last 16 seconds, and the ball spent the final time in Nash's hands.

153-128, the Knicks defeated the Suns by 25 points!

"Congratulations to the Knicks!" The commentators congratulated the Knicks for their record win.

And a new round of praise is coming to the Knicks.

"Phenomenal! The Knicks are telling people how run and gun should be played!"

"More powerful than the Suns back then! Is this how deep the Knicks are!"

"Everyone can start. The Knicks have the deepest bench in the league. The Heat are going to cry with envy."

"Maybe the Knicks will open up a whole new era!"

…

Experts and media from all walks of life have given glory to the Knicks. This is the NBA. It is very realistic here. Winning is the king!

But it's not like no one poured cold water on it.

"Zuo Li is so critical. He is the biggest contributor, or even the only contributor, to the Knicks' best performance in team history tonight. The difference in the scene is far from as big as the final score. In the second half, the Suns even found some ways to deal with it, and

In the second quarter and fourth quarter we were even with the Knicks."

"And the reason why the Knicks can win is that Zuo Li accounted for 80%! This is not an exaggeration. Just look at Zuo Li's data and you will understand." When everyone was lamenting the Knicks' amazing tactics, Kenny Smith said

Instead, he emphasized the Knicks' problem tonight. He felt that without Zuo Li, the Knicks would even lose.

What he said makes sense, and Zuo Li thinks so too.

Everyone else is rotating tonight, except Zuo Li. Zuo Li played more than 43 minutes tonight. The highest playing time except Zuo Li was Dragic's 29 minutes. It can be said that Zuo Li won this night tonight.

Direct promoter.

There is no way, although the scene looks good and exciting, in fact the Knicks' running and gun lineup in this game still exposed many problems, such as defense and lack of proper rotation.

In the second and third quarters, the Knicks had problems with their offense not flowing smoothly, which was caused by the lack of proper rotations.

Otherwise, if they played like this in the first quarter, the Suns probably wouldn't be able to hold on until halftime. How could they possibly fight the Knicks to the end?

Of course, without Zuo Li, the Knicks might eventually lose against the Suns.

After all, the sun has done its best tonight.

Manash scored 21 points, 17 assists and 1 steal in 40 minutes. The old Nash really used all his energy. Maybe he didn't want to lose face in front of his former mentor.

Richardson scored 25 points, Grant Hill scored 19 points, and Turkoglu scored 10 points. This was also his best output.

It's a pity that they are no longer the Suns they were before. Without Stoudemire, Marion's output limit is too low.

Of course, it also has something to do with Zuo Li's super triple-double of 48 points, 20 rebounds and 11 assists. Tonight, Zuo Li can be said to be both offensive and defensive. The offensive end is the starting point and the end point of the offense, and the defense is the inside gate and rebounds.

protector.

If it weren't for Zuo Li's continuous performance on both offense and defense, driving the rhythm of the entire team, the Knicks' run and gun wouldn't have been so easy to succeed.

Looking at the others, Dragic had 21 points, Curry had 20 points, Danny Green had 15 points, Anderson had 8 points, but Randolph only had 4 points and Belinelli had 3 points.

There is a clear gap between starters and substitutes.

This is the problem Kenny Smith said, the Knicks' running and gunning system is incomplete.

But... isn't this normal!

This system has only been played a few times in training. It is not the Knicks' main system. It is already very good to be able to play like this in a hurry.

Moreover, the Knicks' mercury-laden offense in the first and third quarters was not a fake, which means that the run-and-gun game still has great potential, but it just needs further training and adjustments.

At the same time, this also gives Zuo Li new ideas. Maybe one day in the future, this will become the new mainstream of the league.

After all, the time is in our hands!

The future era should be led by the Knicks. They are already at the forefront of the times. This is the confidence that the Knicks can continue to move towards the greatest team in history.

"It was a carnival, we played what we wanted, maybe a little raw, but it proves our potential."

"Run-and-gun has not disappeared, nor has it fallen behind. It just needs to make some adjustments. After all, nothing is constant, except change itself."

"We will continue to make some attempts. Maybe in the near future, we will amaze the whole world and marvel that we have profoundly changed the sport of basketball." Zuo Li said.
