Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

"Congratulations to Zuo Li, he once again won the Eastern Conference Player of the Month award. This is already his fourth award of the Month award this season, and the total in his career has reached 11 times. This number has ranked fifth in history."

"There were only four people left before him, namely Jordan, Kobe, James and O'Neal."

In the ESPN live broadcast room, A Smith said excitedly.

"In less than three seasons, he has exceeded other people's entire careers. Zuo Li is really a terrible guy." Another commentator, Harlin, shook his head in amazement.

People who don't know this figure think that he is a mature superstar who is at least 30 years old. Who would have thought that Zuo Li is not yet 22 years old.

"Let's just change the name of the best player of the month to the "Left Award" from now on." As a guest, Scott Pippen said sourly. As the second leader of the Bulls, he has never won this award in his career...

"The league may have treated him too favorably. Even Michael Jordan would not have won all the awards in his first three seasons." Pippen said.

"Oh ho ho, it's true, but with all due respect, Michael Jordan is indeed slightly inferior to Zuo Li in the first three seasons. After all, Michael did not reach the finals twice in the first two seasons of his career, and also led

The team won the championship. Although I admit that the situation of the Bulls that year may be comparable to that of the Knicks, Zuo Li did indeed do better," A Smith said.

Indeed, A Smith is not talking nonsense. Many young fans on the Internet think that Zuo Li can surpass Jordan in the first three seasons in three seasons. The main reason is that they think it is too difficult to bring out the bad team of the Knicks.

It's simply hell mode PLUS, and Jordan is obviously better in Chicago.

But everyone knows that Chicago changed because of Jordan, not Chicago changed Jordan, so on this point, A Smith believes that the two are equal.

But in terms of performance and results, Zuo Li is indeed better than Jordan in these three seasons.

After refuting Pippen, A. Smith continued: "Moreover, if the Best Monthly Award is not given to Zuo Li, then who can it be given to?"

In a word, a sure kill.

Pippen was silenced and didn't know how to refute for a moment, because he couldn't refute this thing.

Team record, data, personal performance, Zuo Li has no rivals in the league, personal records, and team records have been broken by him one by one. Behind him, Rose and James cannot beat the data, and the team record is not as good as the Knicks. If you

I gave them the best of the month, so that's the controversy.

A Smith's meaning is also very obvious. Don't blame the uneven road if you are not good. Zuo Li's ability to win the best of the month in a row depends on his actual ability and record.

In fact, Zuo Li himself has no big feelings about the best of the month and best of the week, so he ignores the controversy from the outside world. In his heart, winning the best of the month is not as good as everyone on the team working together on the rest day.

It’s a pleasure to practice.

The biggest achievement of this rest day is not winning the award, but that David Lee finally regained the form he lost as an All-Star. He performed well in training and almost hit Randolph in the main lineup from the outside, giving full play to his own characteristics.

So dripping and exquisite.

In the last life, David Lee was a big inside man who was good at shooting. In this life, after Zuo Li's transformation, David Lee's shooting range is getting longer and longer. Now he is more willing to shoot three-pointers, and his shooting percentage has also maintained

Not bad. As long as he is in good condition, he will definitely have a place in the Knicks lineup. After all, no one can replace his attributes for the time being.

No, David Lee, who found his form, was immediately reused by D'Antoni. He started in the away game against the Cavaliers on March 4. This was David Lee's second start of the season. This was actually D'Antoni's tactic.

Let Randolph and David Lee rotate, and let the heavy-weight Randolph recuperate before the start of the playoffs. It's just because David Lee is too stretched, so he didn't start until now.

And David Lee did not waste this opportunity. The Cavaliers still used Jamison at the fourth position. David Lee crushed his opponents with non-stop shooting. He made 7 of 12 shots from the field and 2 of 3 three-pointers.

He made 4 of 5 free throws and scored 20 points and 11 rebounds. The little prince is back with a double-double.

Zuo Li only played 24 minutes and scored 18 points and 10 rebounds before clocking out. This was also the simplest double-double that Zuo Li had achieved in the past two months.

The Knicks also easily defeated the Cavaliers 104-84 to win five consecutive games, and their record became 57 wins and 4 losses.

After the game, an excited David Lee announced loudly in the interview: "I'm back! I'm going to show you the power of the All-Stars! New York fans, wait for me!"

However, on March 7, when the Hawks played, everyone witnessed the fall of the All-Star.

At Madison Square Garden, David Lee faced Horford's defense and made 3 of 11 shots from the field. He only had 8 points and 8 rebounds in the game. However, Horford stopped guarding the left winger and directly exploded on both ends of the offense and defense. The defense destroyed David Lee.

, also scored a double-double on the offensive end with 24 points and 10 rebounds.

If it weren't for Zuo Li's unstoppable double-double with 44 points and 15 rebounds, the Hawks might have won 102-100. The Knicks won a thrilling home game and won their 58th victory of the season.

After the game, David Lee looked deflated, and with the Knicks celebrating excitedly behind him, the show was very effective.

Fans joked one after another: "All-stars have fallen from grace before they even ascended to the throne."

But in fact, it is not David Lee's problem. The Hawks' lineup change really surprised the Knicks, and Josh Smith's defeat of Battier is the biggest reason why the Hawks can play like this.

"Don't worry, the next game will give you a chance to regain the throne." Zuo Li comforted David Lee after the rematch. At this time, it is even more necessary to give David Lee a chance. After all, he is also an important firepower for the Knicks in the playoffs.

"I won't let you down, boss!" Zuo Li's words rekindled David Li's fighting spirit.

On March 8, the Knicks faced the Jazz in back-to-back games. David Lee continued to start this game. Not only that, Knicks players including Zuo Li gave David Lee firepower support.

David Lee also performed well, scoring 14 points on 7-of-8 shooting in a single quarter, which was also the highest score in a single quarter in David Lee's career.

The Jazz, who had just lost their core and coach, had no desire to compete, but after being beaten like this by David Lee, they were immediately defeated.

Trailing by 24 points at halftime and 40 points in the third quarter, 140-100, the Knicks once again won a big victory.

"Congratulations to the Knicks for 59 wins and 4 losses. They are only one game away from the fastest 60 wins in history." Barkley stood up and applauded after the game.

"Congratulations to David Lee, who scored 33 points and 14 rebounds, playing his best game of the season," Kenny Smith said.

He was deeply impressed by the Knicks in this game. Although the entire team ridiculed David Lee crazily in front of the media, they still gave 100% support on the court. This is the quality that a champion team should possess.

and……

60 wins, right in front of them!

The next game is March 10th, facing the Grizzlies. Will good things be hard to come by?
