NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 183: Jiang Chao’s buff bonus, don’t worry if you have no friends in the future!

"Coming!"

His teammates were all so excited, and Harden also became excited. He quickly got rid of James and reached a 45-degree angle to receive Turk Drew's pass.

The moment Harden caught the ball, he didn't have the same ink as he did later. Facing the best forward defender in the league, Harden directly broke into the paint as a triple threat.

When James' huge body came closer, he used his underhand dribbling to pull the ball back under his crotch. If Kobe was there, he would have pulled the ball straight away, but Harden obviously didn't have such a strong ability, but he wanted to show off more.

After pulling back, he suddenly pulled back again, which seemed to be an unprepared shooting action. The speed was extremely slow, causing James to take off directly!

"Cheated!"

The next second he discovered that Harden had not connected with the ball. This Tanhua made a quickie after James took off. He rushed into the basket from James' side and relied on his body to take off, and quickly licked the basket with his left hand and succeeded!

"I'll do the cooking?"

"When worshiping Buddha, it's still a butterfly piercing the flower. It's so fast!"

"This No. 1 shooting guard handles the ball better than most point guards. This is Harden's advantage!"

"It's played out, this is James in singles!"

"The two lottery picks of the Knicks are so strong!"

"Dolan came out to be beaten. If it were Dolan, he would never be able to choose these two people!"

The boss of the Cavaliers, Huang Jianhua, pushed up his glasses. Is this the lottery pick of the Knicks this year? Such a strong talent. He has only played more than a dozen games and has such a change of pace on the court. He is still facing James.

, the feel of the ball is ok!

"Good-job, bro!"

"Nice!"

Having been with Harden for so long, Curry and the others actually know that Harden’s temperament needs to be stimulated. If you don’t yell at him, he will never take the initiative unless the ball is in his hands from the beginning, but the current team lineup does not allow it.

If Deng does this, all he has to do is use his skills and body to fuck the opposing star!

Curry can surprise his opponents, but only Harden can make them hurt!

The next two rounds were all free throws, and both sides began to gradually replace players with substitutes, but they all had core players on the court.

For example, the young and strong James and Xiaomo are still there, and the inside has become Varejao.

The Knicks have Big Q and Yi Jianlian as the core substitutes. Veterans Turk Drew and David Lee will rest first. Yi Lian has long wanted to prove himself in front of Xiao Mo.

After Larry Hughes defended Mo Mo and was blocked by the pick and roll, the Arab League switched to defend the extremely fast Mo Mo. Then the tough big Q and the Arab League double ghosts hit the door, and Mo Bu's layup was directly slapped away!

The ball flew directly to Harden's hands.

Harden's passing talent was obvious at a glance, and he didn't move very quickly. He caught a glimpse of Curry outside the half court and then directly hit the ground and passed the ball across the half court to Curry's hands.

Although Curry is an unfinished product now and doesn't have much chemistry with Harden, I have to say that his enthusiasm and speed are really fast. He can cut to the basket like the wind and easily dunk with one hand when no one can follow him.

Score in!!

Jiang Chao looked nervous for a while.

He may be the most worried. Curry's skills are all at the NBA level. Just a dunk is enough. Thank God if he can barely dunk.

No. 30 is going to dunk!

oh……

He will!!!

You know, if Curry dunks in actual combat, nine out of ten things will go wrong...

But this kid really likes to dunk, fast and swishy!

"Everyone is at war! On Christmas Eve, the Knicks are bound to win the home court!"

At this time, the Knicks led by 5 points, forcing coach Brown to call a timeout.

The opponent played it too easily!

The Cavaliers allowed the Knicks to score so easily?

"Nice!"

"Yeah!"

The invincible cute little girl Kanna Hashimoto and the little beauty Yang Chaoyue with a healing smile applauded like seals and high-fived each other!

Scarlett smiled and asked:

"Why are your eyes so wide open? Do you think this big brother is handsome?"

"He's handsome! But he's not as handsome as Brother Jiang Chao!"

"I mean playing ball!"

"We have never seen brother Jiang Chao play..." What Yang Chaoyue said was quite reasonable, and Scarlett couldn't refute it for a moment.

But Scarlett also saw that Jiang Chao would not be able to concentrate if he took these two girls to watch the ball. They would only cheer to see whether the ball scored or not. They also knew that the white and orange jersey belonged to Jiang Chao's boss.

team, so they cheered when they saw the white ball scored, and even asked some silly questions about the rules.

If this is how he takes his sister to watch football, there is no need for Jiang Chao to sit in the second row.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but hold Yang Chaoyue and Yang Chaoyue in her arms, telling them not to run out and interfere with Jiang Chao.

"Brother Jiang Chao will buy a villa with a basketball court and play basketball with you."

"Okay, I want to watch him play!"

"There will be a chance in the future..."

Scarlett looked at the two people with beautiful features. In her opinion, these two Asian girls were exactly the beauties who had grown up in Jiang Chao's aesthetics. So if they really bought a villa, they would definitely be the first batch of invitees, and sooner or later they would also fall into Jiang Chao's shoes.

Super devilish.

Hey, you are still young, no one can resist the charm of a man who works hard!

Brother Deng, who was in active mode during the timeout, stared wide-eyed in his seat. He listened carefully to the young marshal's explanation, looking much more mature and steady, and even made room for Curry, who arrived later and had just finished celebrating.

This gave Jiang Chao a surprise. The chemical reaction between the two people is gradually building up. The most important thing is that Harden can now deliver this kind of master-level ground-breaking attack. Just look at the reaction of the fans next to him.

Okay, this kind of passing is awesome, this is the rhythm of getting to the rocket boarding mode in advance!

However, according to Harden's mentor, Harden loved passing the ball in college, but because his college was relatively poor, the coach forced him to play more individual games, and it took time to adapt to switching to a passing mode.

Harden's performance in the next first quarter also confirmed Jiang Chao's point.

When Harden was a rookie, everyone thought that he relied on his outstanding physical talent and was an operational monster who could fly into the sky and escape from the ground.

But in fact, he later relied on his indiscriminate isolation ability and excellent passing vision to become a super shooting guard with his own system.

And even if he misfires, there is a historical shooter next to him.

When one falls, the other will stand up again. Together, the two of them feel as stable as an old dog.

But compared to Larry Hughes, who has no three-pointers, Big Q, who plays a little rough, is much better!

When Curry was at his peak, he gave Jiang Chao the impression that he would always score if there was an open position, and he felt the same today, and he would not spit out whatever was put into his mouth.

But the other side is a knight.

It's the Christmas LeBron model that even three backcourt players can't pull down. After being played by a few Knicks rookies on the defensive end in the first few balls, he exploded in full force. In addition, O'Neal is not here, and his personal impact model is even more perfect.

!

Whether it was Harden, Agent, Gallinelli or Big Q, they were all hit so hard that it would be useless to replace anyone else. There were only one or two heavy tank forwards in the league who could withstand his several bulldozing breakthroughs on their own.

During the official timeout in the first quarter, Jiang Chao still only cared about the Lingjiu double iron duo and shouted from behind:

"Just play like this to save energy, rush if you have a chance, pass if you don't have a chance, try to use the simplest and easiest way to score, and save energy."

Curry was panting: "Why, can't you beat them down now?"

Jiang Chao shook his head:

"These are knights. Don't think about beating them to death with a stick. Be prepared to fight until the end."

Harden: "Yeah, okay! I'll shoot them now!"

"clever!"

The Knicks were right.

Harden, who was a three-threat threat before, was also targeted by Brown over there. The Cavaliers chose to shrink when defending Harden, because this man who does not look too fat is actually very strong when playing. The three-threat show just now

James proves this.

Not to mention playing against the thin back line of the Cavaliers, it felt like they were being crushed.

If the Cavaliers didn't have two strong players on the front line who could support a few rounds, Harden might even become the Knicks' weak point.

However, whether it is James or Antoine Jamison, they are forwards after all. The starting speed and foot frequency of forwards are not as good as those of defenders. It is no problem to fight against each other and run all over the court, but the speed and movement of the position are small.

It's embarrassing.

Harden's first step was to rank first in the physical test!

Second only to Derrick Rose in recent years!

But now the Cavaliers are forced to let Harden take a step to defend.

This allowed Harden, who had already guessed it in advance, to directly use a clever and ingenious scoring method. He did not use his back to find rhythm like in the preseason, leaning back, stepping back and pulling the lever.

I didn’t listen to D’Antoni’s suggestion of only shooting three-pointers.

Instead, he uses a simple dribbling rhythm to find the dribbling rhythm point before the opponent pounces, and then directly pulls up and makes a mid-range shot.

Easy and effortless.

I could rush and draw a foul or get a hard layup, but there's no need!

This move is a bit like his little DeRozan!

CIC is a killing weapon!!!

DeRozan, who was watching the game in the North, smiled happily when he saw Harden use the front-up mid-range shot. I didn’t teach you this in vain when I was a kid!

As for shooting, Harden, who has been practicing hard since he was selected, has absolute confidence. On this court, his touch cannot disappear.

As for the tactical arrangement, he is now the complete core of the defender. The veterans also know that, who else can be trained if the second place player does not train him???

Moreover, Jiang Chao has arranged for him to mature since the beginning of Xia Lian, and he should use what tricks at what stage.

During the anxious period, the elephant is invisible and uses the simplest method to widen or close the score difference.

In the second half, you will hit it hard. You will use your full strength to fight for victory!

In the previous few games, the rhythm and shooting feeling were not good, but in this game, maybe he didn't want to be ashamed of Jiang Chao's boss's thoughts on him. Harden understood Jiang Chao's expectations of him and made 5 of 5 shots in the second quarter.

Use the simplest and most powerful way to hit the opponent's defensive sweet spot time and time again to make your opponent's balls hurt!

This shot is much more reliable than Curry's open three-pointers, and the Cavaliers, who were behind by 8 points, just wondered why this jumping boy with explosive playing style in college became a rhythm monster in the Knicks.

Like the 30-year-old Kobe Bryant next door?

and……

Seems more accurate than Kobe??

This is the role of Jiang Chao!

When he was watching the game from the sidelines, he actually didn't care about Yi Jianlian, Turk Drew, Gallinelli and the others who were almost finalized.

He doesn't care about tactics.

He only looks at Kuha.

If Curry doesn't waste his shots, if Harden doesn't shoot too hard, the game will be won!

When the Warriors and Rockets lost in previous lives, it was definitely because these two people didn't perform well. As long as they performed well, they rarely lost.

However, the Cavaliers' smart inside man Varejao, the Brazilian movie star, is really something. His explosive head makes his presence on the court explosive. The Knicks inside man got 2 consecutive offensive fouls and 2 defensive fouls. He even got

Hit an alley-oop with James.

He is indeed a good friend of James, and he is also a fast-moving center. A few fouls caused the Knicks, who like to play fast, to play in an intermittent rhythm.

There's nothing we can do about it. The Knicks don't have a stance-type inside line. The three current inside lines like to jump. They don't have enough height and weight to make up for it by bouncing. To deal with a heavy tank like Varejao, he can stand inside.

There was nothing he could do, he didn't have any single-attack skills, and his hook wasn't stable either. He only had a few feints to counter flops.

Then when the Knicks got used to his rhythm a little bit, Brown changed to the Shark who didn't want to play with you...

The confrontation started again, and several of the Knicks' inside players were almost knocked out by three players!

Confrontation Confrontation!

This is the level of competition brought by teams that reach the Eastern Conference Finals level!

They all know it too well. The Sharks will basically not be affected by these rookies. The Cavaliers' lineup last year reached the Eastern Conference Finals and averaged 800 tricks per player. The Bad Boys also have the hard and small moves, as well as the sudden defensive aggression.

, there are also frequent voice attacks...

So even though Harden himself played very comfortably under the Cavaliers' strategy in the second quarter, he was unable to survive alone. At halftime, the Knicks trailed by 2 points at 52:54.

Harden scored 5 points in the first quarter, 13 points in the second quarter, and 18 points in the half to stabilize the score.

On the opposite side, O'Neal had 8 points and 4 rebounds in the half, and LeBron James also showed strength in the second quarter, with 17 points and 5 assists in the half.

"Don't worry, we were also very good in the second half. In the third quarter, it was left to Curry, Turk Drew, Okur and the others. In the fourth quarter, Harden controlled the ball and played aggressively. It was a dead end!"

"Don't worry about physical fitness then. It's Christmas after 0 o'clock, and it's also the last game of the year. Just score as many goals as you can!

We allow Yan 11 to shoot three-pointers, as long as you can score!"

When Harden was about to enter the tunnel, Jiang Chao found him alone and explained the tasks for the second half to Curry in front.

What is given is absolute trust. In fact, this is also the tactical arrangement of the young coach. The attitude of the whole team is to let this young man with the highest expectations play hard in the fourth quarter.

Turk Drew and Okur's physical fitness is enough to stay healthy and play in the playoffs. At this time in the regular season, we have to rely on these young and strong rookies.

The core of the youth storm can only start with Harden!

You can't count on Beverley, Danny Green, Matthews, and Mills. Their talents are limited.

Didn't you see that Sun Yue's back was wet with tears? He also said that there should be a chance for rotation. With the intensity of the confrontation, it would be great if he could move without deformation on the field.

Harden likes this feeling of being appreciated and valued very much. Even in the first few games, he almost forgot what the boss expected of him when he chose him...

He is also most afraid of people like D'Antoni and Messina who make him play by the rules. One of these two assistant coaches requires more three-pointers on fast breaks and looks for three-point opportunities.

One is required to play reasonable ball, and try to force others to attack when there is no other way.

Although Jiang Chao didn't allow him to be strong, Jiang Chao allowed him to do anything at the critical moment!

Just show your talent!

This gave a very powerful hint to the two players of Coha. In their hearts, the person who understands them best in the world is the boss who chose them, Jiang Chao!

I don’t favor Chinese players and I don’t just look at the two Turkish stars, but I really want them to become successful!

Only Jiang Chao trusts them unconditionally every time, and the advice he gives them is immediately effective and benefits them a lot!

This is the boss buff bonus that Sean Marks has been waiting for!!

With the boss here, Kuha will be particularly good at playing!

The buff aura is only useful for lottery picks!

Gallinelli said that I am also a lottery winner...

In fact, it’s not that Jiang Chao doesn’t have the intention to guide them and the second-round picks, it’s just that he doesn’t have time and it’s not that time!

Let Harden rise first!!

On the contrary, Curry reassured him more than Harden. With his competitive nature, he would not let himself slack off.

Sure enough, it was Curry who took the lead and nodded heavily to Jiang Chao:

"Boss, we will definitely not let you down tonight!!! I will regain my performance in the second half!"

Harden also smiled and fist-bumped with Jiang Chao, and Curry shook hands with Jiang Chao vigorously, as if he were a strategist and his two generals.

Don’t worry, there will be no friends in the future. Who in the world doesn’t know you!!

"Just give it to me and that's it!"
