Build a Dream Dynasty

On February 10, the New York Derby was staged again. The Knicks challenged the Nets in an away game and lost 80 to 111.

The relationship between the Knicks’ former hero Anthony and the team was completely broken. Charlie Rosen, a close friend of Knicks president Phil Jackson, made a series of heavy remarks, directly pinning the blame for the team’s poor record to Anthony. on the head. Rosen said that Anthony did not obey the team's arrangements in the Knicks. He refused to implement the tactical system arranged by Jackson, which made New York's triangle offense impossible. These remarks angered Anthony, who was recovering from his injuries, and the latter also spoke directly that he would no longer play for the Knicks.

The Knicks, with internal and external troubles, were unable to compete with the Nets. Even if the main players of the Nets clocked in three quarters, the point difference was still as much as 31 points. What's even more frightening is that the fans of the Nets will no longer feel excited about beating the Knicks. The biggest contempt is not booing, not cursing, but ignoring, just like people don't pay attention to ants.

Fans of the Knicks will also no longer enjoy the tactics the team should use to beat the Nets. What is the situation of the Knicks now.

Although the adopted son defeated his own son, the New York media still promoted Leonard, who scored a game-high 22 points after the game.

"The thing that kept Kawhi Leonard from the first team was because the Nets ended the game too many times in the first three quarters!"

"Comprehensive offensive and defensive performance, I think Leonard is more worthy of a game than James!"

"As far as this season is concerned, Leonard is the player who has contributed the most to the Nets!"

"In the days when Curry was absent, Leonard proved his ability to play the leading role alone!"

And Curry himself expressed his attitude by liking some comments supporting Leonard on social media. This also makes the competition among the league's three big and small forwards more intense. Relatively speaking, Durant has a high probability of securing one, and Leonard and James need to compete for another spot on the front line.

The trade deadline is approaching, and the teams are also rushing to operate, especially some teams that target tax avoidance, and they are even more busy at the moment. For the management of some teams, the team's performance ranks second, and saving money for the boss is the first.

Of course, with this kind of psychological team management, it is difficult for their team to win the championship. The Nets sometimes have tax avoidance actions, but they avoid taxes in a certain year in order to spend more time recklessly and keep the team's lineup, and some teams are simply saving money. It reflects the difference in thinking between people.

Accompanying Hong Chengcheng home for a trip, and returning to New York, Jiang Mingliang also received some trading proposals, but he rejected them all. Unless a very suitable power forward is bought out and enters the market, Jiang Mingliang doesn't even plan to participate in the buyout market.

On February 13, the Nets, who had been resting for two days, ushered in the challenge of the powerful Utah Jazz at home. The Jazz, ranked third in the West, have always been one of the hardest nuts for the Nets. The team's five-door lineup and the deterrence at home on the plateau have made them the most difficult team to face the Nets since Jiang Mingliang took over the Nets. The team with the highest winning percentage, and Grant, who traded Favors and the draft pick from the 76ers for a more suitable team style of play, also clarified the goal of the Jazz. They are not a team to accompany the prince to study, even a few T1 teams The strength of the next team is as high as the mountain, and their goal is also the championship, and they will not give up this season easily.

Gobert won the jump ball, Hayward took the ball in the backcourt, and instead of handing the ball to Jeremy Lin, he pushed directly to the frontcourt, forced a breakthrough and squeezed the Nets' defense and then scored the ball. Klay Thompson followed up and hit a three-pointer .

The Jazz lineup has been working together for a long time, especially this pair of wing combinations, the tacit understanding is very good.

However, it is really hard to say whether this lineup can continue to be retained this summer. Both Jeremy Lin and Hayward's contracts will expire after the end of the season, and Jeremy Lin's willingness to stay with the Jazz is still there. As for Hayward, he may be more inclined to play in a metropolis.

The key depends on whether he can enter the best team after the end of this season. If he can enter the best team, the Jazz can offer him a higher contract to widen the gap with other teams' contracts. Conversely, if he can't Into the best team, in the case of similar money, Hayward's choice is hard to say.

The Nets are offensive, and the Jazz's defensive expansion is very powerful. Anyway, Gobert is a pillar on the inside, and the outside is oppressive. Gobert will fill all the gaps.

The Nets have Robertson as an offensive black hole on the outside. The pressure on the Jazz's defensive rotation is much less. Porzingis was also released from a certain distance by the Jazz on the outside. Live the rebound.

The Jazz's defensive choice is very bold. In addition to Robertson, they also regard Porzingis as a point in the perimeter rotation that can be properly emptied. In this way, the offensive pressure on Curry, Leonard, and George suddenly increased. And Gobert's abnormal defense ability also made the Nets very taboo.

Jeremy Lin played a pick-and-roll with Gobert. After breaking into the basket, he made a fake move to score Hayward, which diverted the attention of the Nets' defensive end. He suddenly turned around and scored a layup, 0:4.

The Nets attacked, and the team found a dislocation through quick transfer of the ball and off-ball screens. However, Porzingis was unimpressed in the face of Klay Thompson. In the end, he barely made a shot and failed to make a hit. Gobert once again accepted the backcourt rebound And sent a long pass, Jeremy Lin received the ball in the frontcourt, and passed the ball to Grant who inserted in the back with his long eyes, and the latter followed up with a dunk, 0:6!

After the opening, the Jazz played fiercely, which caught the fans at Barclays Center by surprise. But for Stevens, he felt that this game was meaningful and had training value. In the playoffs, the team will definitely face all kinds of opponents and resort to various means to snipe the Nets. They will encounter some important opponents in advance, and after a real experience, they will be more comfortable at that time.

Joe Johnson replaced Robertson, which is also a fixed routine of the Nets, especially in stalemate or headwind, Joe Johnson's appearance can always bring something different to the Nets. Many fans are ridiculing that they can sit in the position of Stevens, because the starting lineup of the Big Four of the Nets has Joe Johnson, a veteran with a very high basketball IQ, even if the opponent can withstand the opening lineup of the Nets It is also difficult to prevent Joe Johnson's last knife even if it is crushed.

The same is true in this game. Joe Johnson took over the ball from Curry immediately after his debut. Five players on the Nets have the ability to shoot from the outside. Gobert immediately faced a dilemma. Throw Porzingis, or stay inside and let Porzingis open. Secondly, with Joe Johnson, who has organizational skills, Curry's off-ball running threat doubled, and the Jazz's defensive system immediately had problems.

As soon as Curry is alive, the Nets' offense is alive!

Gobert is the league's leading defensive center and can also cause considerable trouble for the Nets. But his shortcomings are also very obvious. Compared with Embiid, who really caused the Nets a headache, Gobert has no independent offensive ability at all, or very little. This makes him incapable of punishing opponents on the offensive end once he is targeted on the defensive end, which is a big drag on the team! It is also the reason why Gobert has been underestimated for a long time.

Defensive, never offensive!
