Nba: Most Talented

In the next few days, the team trained every day to prepare for the new season.

Yang Xu worked harder than others.

He came to the stadium an hour earlier than everyone else. At the end, everyone left, and he practiced for another hour.

All of this, D'Antoni is in the eyes.

On October 2, the preseason kicked off.

All teams are also actively preparing for the game, and the Knicks are no exception.

Except for McGrady, who was unable to play due to injury, almost all the others were present.

The Knicks' opponent in the first game was the Chicago Bulls, who had the best rookie of the previous year. In Rose's first year, the team made the playoffs.

Although Rose was not the absolute leader last year, his role in it was absolutely decisive.

Everyone believes that the second year of Rose can play a better game.

This game is the home of the Knicks.

Many fans have spent the long summer vacation and are already full of expectations for the new season.

In the first game of the preseason, the auditorium was full.

There are Bulls fans, there are Rose fans, and most of them are local fans.

No matter how bad the Knicks record is, the local fans will never leave.

Yang Xu, facing so many fans for the first time, was a little excited.

"I used to watch the game on TV, and I didn't think much of it. Watching it live, it was so shocking!"

Robinson joked: "Rookie, let's see the world! You will see this kind of scene almost every day in the future, get used to it!"

Yang Xu patted his chest and said confidently: "From now on, all the fans in the stadium will cheer for me!"

"It's a cool ideal!" Robinson clicked his tongue, but didn't pay much attention to it.

Following the host's announcement, the players entered the court one by one.

As a rookie, Yang Xu's appearance was very deserted, with only flat applause from the audience.

As soon as Harrington and Lee, who are the core of the team, came out, the atmosphere in the arena entered a climax.

"Lee! Come on! Oh..."

"I want to give birth to monkeys for you, Li..."

"Harrington! Dunk on them!"

Accepting the cheers from the audience, Harrington and Lee enjoyed this feeling to the fullest.

No one can resist the feeling of being adored, and so is Yang Xu.

The starters from both sides began to appear, the Bulls: Luol Deng, Tyrus Thomas, John Salmons, Joakim Noah and Rose.

For the Knicks: Harrington, Jeffries, Lee, Duhon and Chandler.

Yang Xu can only sit on the bench.

As soon as the game started, Noah jumped to the ball.

Rose held the ball outside, and Noah stepped forward to cover.

Rose used the cover, and as a result, he accelerated and passed Jeffries, who came up to defend.

Entering the inside line, Harrington stepped forward to make up the defense, and Ross scored the ball with a pull rod in the air.

The Knicks' defense, in the face of Rose's speed, is as slow as a classic car.

As long as Rose puts on the horsepower, the Knicks' defenders are left behind in a blink of an eye.

In the Bulls' offensive round, Rose singled out Duhon.

He dribbled the ball to his left hand, and his body also floated to the left hand side, with a very large range.

Seeing that Du Hong didn't keep up, Ross accelerated directly and broke through on the left.

Duhon could only watch Rose pass by, but his body couldn't keep up.

Rose burst inside again, and this time it was Lee who came to help.

Rose jumped straight up, and Lee jumped up, and Rose passed the ball in the air to Thomas behind Lee.

Thomas hit the board with ease.

Next, Ross popped up several more.

The Bulls' style of play is very simple, that is, to use Rose's strength to launch an offense.

Dash inside for a layup, or pass to an inside player.

Last season, the Bulls coach has already deliberately developed tactics around Rose.

This season, Rose has been further upgraded, with stronger offensive power and control on the field. The coach has completely started a style of play with Rose as the core.

No way, being beaten by the bulls in a row.

D'Antoni replaced Duhon with the faster Robinson.

But Robinson is only 175cm tall, while Rose is 191cm tall.

There is a full difference of 16cm.

Sure enough, after Robinson came up, Rose dribbled and shot directly.

The basketball was exchanged back and forth in his hands, and his body also drifted left and right.

Then suddenly made a jump shot, and Robinson couldn't reach it even if he reacted.

Although Rose's three-pointer is not accurate, the mid-range is still possible.

After being shot three consecutive times by Rose, D'Antoni couldn't sit still.

He changed the defensive strategy and let Chandler stick to Rose.

But Chandler is about the same as Duhon. Although he is much stronger in height and strength, he still can't keep up with him in speed.

Rose is like a supercar, starting at an extremely fast speed, and with a little carelessness, he slipped away from the defender's nose.

The Bulls' offense went smoothly, and the Knicks' offense could only rely on Lee's mid-range shot.

Noah's defense is very fierce, even Harrington can't get cheap on him.

Before the end of the second quarter, the Bulls led by 18 points.

Although the results of the preseason games are irrelevant, the fans all bought tickets to watch the game.

If the loss is too miserable, the fans will be 10,000 unhappy.

Just when D'Antoni was scratching his head, Rose steals Duhon and dunks in the frontcourt.

Before the end of the first half, Rose scored 16 points and 6 assists alone.

The Knicks were almost defeated by Rose alone, and there was nothing they could do.

At this moment, D'Antoni glanced helplessly at the bench, flirted back and forth several times, and finally locked his eyes on Yang Xu.

He pointed to Yang Xu, "Yang, warm up and get ready to play!"

Hearing that he could play, Yang Xu stood up immediately and began to warm up.

After walking to the substitution area, D'Antoni came over and told him, "Stay close to Rose later, don't let him catch the ball easily, let alone let him break through you, can you do it?"

Yang Xu nodded heavily, "No problem, the task must be completed!"
