Then before Stoudemire finished his 13-point move, it was the Knicks' turn to attack.

Stoudemire was broken through by John Starks on the opposite side in a blink of an eye.

John Starks, the No. 9 shooting guard of the Knicks, is a combo guard.

After point guard Derek Harper left the court, he was the one who took charge of the Knicks' ball control task.

In addition to being able to score about 14 points per game, John Starks can also deliver about 4 assists, which is a very good piece of the championship puzzle.

This time, John Starks, who easily broke through Stoudemire, was ready to shoot himself, and he was seen making a quick stop jump shot outside the restricted area.

And then, there was nothing else!

Hanamichi rushed out of the restricted area at the moment John Starks shot, rushed to him in two steps, and then slapped John Starks' shot out of the court.

"Hey! Brother~ Didn't we say that I'll take care of it for you!"

Das embarrassedly clapped his hands with Hanamichi and said:

"Hey, I was careless and didn't notice the substitution!"

...

Then, as Das said, he didn't make any more mistakes.

Instead, he interfered with the Knicks' back line through fierce pressing and driving the team's rhythm, and forced the opponent's attack time from 24 seconds to within 13 seconds!

Especially in the last quarter of the game, the Knicks' back line was completely driven by him, and the number of mistakes and steals increased!

The most important thing is that Ewing and Oakley's physical disadvantages gradually manifested!

In the first 6 minutes of the fourth quarter, Das made a breakthrough and shot from outside, 2 of 4 three-pointers, and also contributed 2 steals on the defensive end.

And Hanamichi stood firm in the Knicks' restricted area through flexible footwork and tough fadeaway jump shots.

Facing Oakley's double-team, he used hook shots or passed the ball in advance from time to time, making the latter's double-team often in vain.

Halfway through the fourth quarter, the Raptors were far ahead with 94:82.

Knicks head coach ~ Old Nelson has confirmed what he thought in his heart.

It is not disappointing to the team's top player, Ewing, a superstar, after all, it's just a game!

But for him as a [mad scientist], the team's top player is already 33 years old, so can he do a big experiment!

After all, there are many people who can replace him!

For example, the [shark] in the plan, but it seems that there is an extra surprise that the rookie in front of him also shows this potential!

But Old Nelson does not intend to act so quickly, after all, the season has just begun, and it is still early for the start of the player trading market!

Old Nelson is not in a hurry for his [experimental plan], but he is not slow at all to raise the white flag on the court.

This is not surprising, after all, it is the beginning of the season, there is no need to fight to the death!

So he waved his hand and went to the bench lineup, surrendering and admitting defeat! But this also caused Ewing's dissatisfaction!

Although he was dissatisfied, he still had to obey the coach's orders. Ewing could only leave the court with a bad mood of messing up the "Welcome Party".

As for the Raptors, as usual, they left the rookie Das to lead the team~ in the name of sharpening newcomers!

As for Hanamichi, it was not that his physical strength could not support it, but mainly because Ewing and Oakley's elbows were really "easy to dodge and difficult to defend".

The endless small moves made Hanamichi unable to defend.

He estimated that his chest and waist were purple and blue, so he applied to leave the court.

Otherwise, such a good garbage time, you don't see whether Hanamichi will brush it or not!

"Beep!" The game ended with a score of 104:96. The Toronto Raptors defeated the New York Knicks, the second in the Eastern Conference last season, at home.

Ewing left the court directly after the game. As for Oakley, the so-called "tough guy", he went to find Hanamichi.

"Hey! Red-haired boy, I like your performance in the third quarter. It matches your hair color! Well done!"

"But you should be thankful that you didn't do that in front of me! I don't react like Ewing!"

After saying that, he raised his fist and said deliberately.

Hanamichi was not polite either:

"Haha, that depends on how fast you react, brother!"

"If you are treated as a background board by my brother, you can't run away even if you want to!"

"Hahahaha, I like your personality, kid! I'm optimistic about you~ Remember to apply oil when you go back!"

After saying that, Oakley left the court with a smile.

"This old guy!"

Hanamichi touched his chest and said with a grin.

(Oakley's style of play is tough and fierce, and he fights for every inch of land in the restricted area. Oakley's capital for implementing this style of play is his strong physique,Flying elbows and constant small movements. Like Barkley, he is known as a "bad guy" and often fights with others on the court. But in fact, Oakley fights mostly to protect his teammates)

In this game, the two cores of the Toronto Raptors continued their wonderful performance in the previous game and both achieved double-doubles.

Das scored 25 points, 11 assists, and 5 steals in the whole game.

And Hanamichi scored 24 points, 14 rebounds, 4 blocks, and 4 assists.

After the game, without mentioning the reason why Flower was absent from the press interview, Raptors General Manager Masai Ujiri said to Coach Landon Malone with a smile in the player tunnel:

"How is it? Our team's inside and outside dual core!"

Landon Malone responded excitedly:

"Although it is still a little immature, based on the current performance, it can be rated five stars!"

"Especially Flower, playing against Ewing in this game will accelerate his growth!"

Coach Malone became more and more excited:

"Hey! Man, did you see his half-turn dunk and tip-in? He overturned Ewing!"

Masai Ujiri stopped his excitement, and his eyes revealed a wise look:

"Although I don't understand these things very well, Toronto fans have shown a high degree of attention and interest in our newcomers! Then I think it's not wrong to use them as dual cores!"

Landon Malone said that it was more than right, it was simply a great move!

"But I just asked the team doctor, Flower's injury is just a minor collision injury, and she will be fine after resting for a day or two!"

"Although the team doctor said so, this must attract our attention~ Landon! I mean that!"

"Although Hanamichi has always been in good health, and the high-intensity training has not caused any signs of serious illness, we have to guard against this!"

As he said, Masai Ujiri waved his hand and signaled:

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that I have any idea of ​​trading Flower! I'm not as short-sighted as the Clippers coach!"

"But we have to prepare a tough character who is tough enough on the court. Not to mention that he can fight, but at least he can protect the core of the team. "We can't always let our little guy in the inside carry the load! You know, in addition to the [Gorilla], there is also a [Shark] that roams freely in the East!" Landon Malone said silently after hearing this: "I overlooked this point! After all, Flower's super physical strength and seamless connection have far exceeded the performance of a rookie like him!" Masai Ujiri continued: "It's good that you realize this. I just have a good candidate here!" "Maybe there will be a good opportunity soon! I just informed you in advance!" ... Landon Malone smiled and nodded, and didn't ask any more questions. He knew that the team manager Masai Ujiri did things in a wild way, but as long as he didn't touch the team's basic base~ Das and Huadao, he, the head coach, would support the rest!
