Guard With a Knife

Four hundred and thirty-seven: [Who is his prey? 】

, exciting novels for free!

The New York fans who returned to the locker room finally recovered their smiling faces. The first half of the game, especially the second quarter, allowed the three new players to integrate into the Knicks' style of play. They finally found a way to play comfortably.

"I like that set of tactics, he gave me the greatest degree of freedom." James Johnson even said very excitedly in the locker room: "I feel like I am everywhere, I like this kind of game that can release all my energy." How to play."

His thinking is in line with the other three players.

But Doug thinks that this style of play still has a lot to improve. Although there is already a certain tacit understanding on the defensive end, and the resilience is full, it has made great progress compared with last season. But the firepower on the offensive end is still not enough, especially in the matter of opening up space outside the three-point line.

Herb Williams quickly came over to arrange the tactical play for the second half. Doug offered to take a rest. He asked the two rookies to play for a while, hoping that they could accumulate more game experience and thus increase the overall strength of the team.

Doug has always taken a long-term view.

For the New Jersey Nets, their most important goal this season is not to strive for the most victories. It's about...going for the most losses to get a better draft pick.

If the Knicks tried their best for the arrival of LeBron James. Well, the New Jerseyans have even broken their own bones for it.

They emptied all the salary space during the offseason, and even Vince Carter, the only box office appeal, was sold to Orlando. Now there are only three types of contracts left in their entire lineup: rookie contract, Devin Harris' contract and expiring contract.

Their current annual salary is more than 10 million and only one person. There are two people with an annual salary of more than 10,000, and five people with an annual salary of more than 4 million. And the contract of Bobby Simmons, the only one with an annual salary of over 1000 million, will also end this season. That is to say, they can get two super superstars in 2010, and it is not impossible for them to get three superstars with the rich personality of the Russian oligarchs.

Although Devin Harris came out with a more positive attitude in the second half, he tried to prove that he was the superior player. But his activeness made him look more like a headless chicken. His shooting percentage of emergency stop jumpers continued to decline under the continuous defense of Hinrich and Marbury. And when he got to the basket, Milicic gave him 2 blocks, and Doug also gave him 2.

The balance of the game was completely tilted from the fifth minute of the second half when Doug stepped onto the court.

Brook Lopez once tried to set off a counterattack in the middle. But Doug rushed to the basket and ruthlessly suppressed him with a clean dunk!

"You should clearly realize that you and I are no longer players at the same level."

The words Doug left him were very calm.

He did not boast, nor deliberately suppressed. It is very simple to tell him to recognize the reality.

This is the confidence of the superior.

Brook Lopez finally realized that he was behind after being squeezed out of the basket again on the next possession. He passed the basketball to Devin Harris, and Devin Harris forced a shot from outside the three-point line and took a look. Chance's Wesley Matthews flew over like a mad dog and slapped his basketball towards the tenth row of auditorium.

Roar!

When Matthews roared, James Johnson rushed to give him a passionate high-five, and the enthusiasm of the entire Madison Garden was ignited.

The old Knicks DJ roared in a rough voice: "Thank God for sending us Knicks a crazy dog!! He's Wesley... Matthews!!!"

The roar of the live commentator gave Matthews the most important nickname in his life.

The undrafted in 2009 played an impressive game in the first regular season of his career, and his desperate defense became the torch that ignited the enthusiasm of the Garden Arena.

Of course, there is also James Johnson. This guy's explosive physical fitness and tough defensive attitude are equally impressive!

They didn't look like rookies at all. Under Snoopy's leadership, they were like tigers who just walked out of the forest, showing their bloody fangs towards their rivals in the same city!

The Nets were shredded before the start of the fourth quarter.

Devin Harris encountered a fighting defense in the second half, and his offensive rhythm was cut to pieces. So, in the second half, he sent 4 of 15 shots.

As the leader of the team, he will not receive any blame for having the right to fire.

However, he had to accept a cruel fact.

"You are still far from the Duke, boy!"

Wesley Matthews, who guarded him for most of the second half, dismissed his assessment.

This guy looked fierce, and behind him stood the burlier James Johnson, as if Devon Harris would rush to tear Snoopy apart if he said something bad to Snoopy.

In fact, this scene happened in the third minute of the fourth quarter. At that time, Snoopy used a gorgeous change of direction to kill Roberts' defense, and just about to make a layup when he went to the basket, Simmons behind him hugged him and brought him down.

At that time, these two inexperienced young rookies rushed up. They looked menacing, and their eyes were wide open, and their fists were already clenched into steel. Wesley Matthews even got a technical foul for it.

However, they won the cheers of the audience.

Excited New York fans were shouting fighting! They seem to have seen the iron-blooded army in the 90s!

To be honest, when Bobby Simmons was pushed away by Mad Dog Matthews, he even freaked out and threw up his hands. He kept explaining that he meant no harm. And if Snoopy hadn't gotten up in time, a fierce battle would have happened...God can't guarantee whether his fragile forehead can withstand James Johnson's beautiful roundabout kick.

Doug criticized them in the subsequent timeout: "You have to be sure that the opponent is malicious before acting, understand? And, there is no need to fanfare. Toughness has rules."

After the criticism, he patted the two of them on the shoulder again: "But anyway, good job. Wesley's fine was handed over to me. And... come to my house for dinner next weekend."

Snoopy showed his leadership.

These two rookies were originally his direct descendants, and now they are even more loyal.

Judging from the current situation, the Duke is close to completely controlling the Knicks locker room. Nate Robinson and Milicic were originally his faction. Stephen Marbury has a very close relationship with him, and he was the first old player to offer to assist Snoopy. Coupled with Gallinari and Eddie Curry, they have all been infinitely inclined to Snoopy. Although Kirksinrich has just arrived, he also knows who he should go further with. Although the remaining David Lee complained about his reduced playing time, he voted for it every time at critical moments. Although Jeffries was more cordial with Zach Randolph, Randolph did not tear himself apart from Doug. And Randolph also vaguely admitted that Snoopy is the team's biggest mountain.

It can be said that Dug is the only player in the 08 class, and even the only player in NBA history who completely controlled the team step by step without relying on external forces in the second grade. Moreover, when he was traded to the Knicks, he faced a situation that many people could not even imagine.

132:98.

Before the game, the Nets, who kept promoting this New York Derby, suffered a disastrous defeat.

And Devin Harris, who was dissatisfied with the ESPN rankings, came back even worse. His 25 points, 5 assists and 2 rebounds on 11 of 32 shots did not look like an All-Star at all.

He was completely at a disadvantage in comparison with Doug.

With 16 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists, 4 blocks and 2 steals, Doug is still unbelievably versatile and has become the first player to get a triple-double in the new season. Although it is said that in the last fourth quarter, he missed 5 back-and-forth fadeaways in a row. But that didn't detract from his excellent performance on both offense and defense in this game.

"The gap between Devin Harris and Snoopy is obvious. His body is too weak. And he is not a real point guard. He is always performing offensive tasks blindly."

Even Bill Walton commented on the outcome after the game.

As for Reggie Miller, he said more directly: "It was a joke from the beginning that Devon Harris wanted to replace Snoopy in the hearts of New York fans. We don't talk about off-court influence. Judging from the degree of control of the game, he is at a disadvantage overall, at least one level behind. Snoopy already has the qualifications to become a true All-Star, and...Devin Harris is still looking up at the edge!"

Although Bill Walton thinks Doug isn't quite at an All-Star level, he hasn't debated the issue with Reggie Miller. Instead, he talked about the defense shown by the Knicks and two eye-catching rookies. He likes this tough wing player very much. He thinks the Knicks picked up a baby in the draft.

"You must know that Matthews was undrafted. He made 4 of 9 shots tonight, 11 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals. He is completely a lottery pick. James Johnson also has 9 points, 8 rebounds and a double-double. And …They seem to be the slightest bit of stage fright, even when the leader of the team is brought down, the first time they rush to compete with the opponent! The Knicks locker room culture has been completely different."

"Now I am very much looking forward to the next game. The people of Atlanta declared early on that they would give Snoopy a little color in the first game of the new season. Then, seeing the two vicious dogs beside Snoopy, how dare they Do you act rashly?"

Reggie Miller said with great interest.

He couldn't wait to make a preview of the game the day after tomorrow.

Atlanta vs New York Knicks.

For those who followed last season's playoffs in this game, they couldn't help being excited just by hearing the two names. After all, Atlanta has been clamoring for revenge all summer long. Pachulia even said provocative remarks that he would let Snoopy taste his fists, which made this game that has not yet started full of gunpowder and competition!

However, Doug did not respond to the question in an interview with ESPN courtside reporters after the game.

He spent most of his time praising the two rookies.

And when the reporter asked how to evaluate Devin Harris, he said calmly: "He is the 63rd gentleman."

When the reporter asked him why he remained silent before the game against Devin Harris' various remarks, he replied lightly: "The lion never holds his breath because of fear, but for the next hunt."

"So, Devon Harris is your prey?"

"no, he is not."

Doug shook his head, then walked away.

Although he didn't say something like 'Devin Harris is not worthy of being a prey', everyone can see that he is really...not taking Devin Harris seriously at all.

So, who is his prey?

Jennifer Lawrence sent a text message to Dug after the game. After sitting in the stands on the second floor and enjoying the hearty victory quietly, she wanted to talk to Snoopy alone.
