Seven o'clock in the evening, New York Madison Garden Arena.

The Knicks sit at home and have a game with the 76ers.

In the past two years, the Knicks recruited Nash and formed the "Big Three" with Anthony and Stoudemire. They acted as a lubricant between the two, which once had a good effect.

But the good times did not last long. With the increase of age, Nash's condition went from bad to worse, and he was ready to retire at the end of last season.

He hopes that he can help the team on the field, not dispensable, or even drag the team back.

Once the son of the wind, now he has become an uncle, no longer the courage of the past.

Under the persuasion of his teammates, Nash decided to play for another year, but his personal data and field performance have dropped to a career low, averaging only 10.6 points per game and 6.2 assists per game.

For a blue-collar player, this is already a good stat, but he is Nash, a regular season mvp.

In addition, Stoudemire's state has been declining year after year. Last season he still scored 16.8 points, this season only 13.2 points are left.

Obviously, averaging 13.2 points per game is definitely not a giant.

Today, the only Knicks who can be considered a giant is Anthony. He averaged 27.4 points, 8.1 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game this season. His performance is still outstanding, but the so-called "Big Three" is already Existing in name only.

Fortunately, this season's newly-joined team Delia-Bargnani and DJ-Augustin three performance is not bad.

The Knicks are now fifth in the Eastern Conference.

At the beginning of this game, Anthony showed a strong scoring outlook. He played consecutive singles, worthy of being an "offensive kaleidoscope." Various skills were readily available, outside shooting, low post attack, breakthrough attacking, and he scored 7 points in a row. Swept the Knicks' first 7 points.

On the 76ers' side, Qin Hao didn't make much shots. Butler was still the strong point in scoring.

In a few minutes, the score was 7:6, and the Knicks led by 1 point.

At this time, the Knicks coach made a gesture to the court, signalling to strengthen the defense of Butler.

As soon as the opponent started to target Butler, Qin Hao winked at his teammates, and everyone knew it, and began to cover Kaka more and pass the ball to him.

Qin Hao also rushed to the small card and told him to just play.

Xiaoka is not the kind of hesitating person, and immediately concentrates on the attack.

I saw him taking the ball outside the three-point line, a tentative step, Anthony was unmoved, and Kaka didn’t care. He took a step to the side, then suddenly changed direction, jumped forward and jumped on the spot. Dry pull.

Huh!

With a soft sound, the ball is scored.

"Good job." Qin Hao ran over and gave Xiaoka a high-five. "You have to believe in your own strength, just go and fight."

"Yeah." Xiaoka replied.

After a while, Anthony singled for a small card and tried to break through, but he couldn't pass, but he then turned a jumper, accompanied by a "swish", and went in again.

Turning around, Butler attracted the defense, broke the score, and passed it to Qin Hao. Qin Hao passed it to Xiaoka, pulling the man away, leaving a space on the left.

Xiaoka took a look at the situation on the court and made a breakthrough in the face of Anthony. An emergency stop and a sudden stop, used the change of rhythm to pass Anthony, went to the basket and took the initiative to look for a confrontation. He beat Stoudemire and forced Stoudemire to be unable to block the shot. , This is the shot.

Huh!

Also in.

In the next few minutes, Xiaoka played very well.

Xiaoka is not the kind of player who scores very explosively. He is not like Butler. He is emotional, and the state is just as helpful. It is not impossible to score 30+ in a game and score 40 points.

Because since entering the 76ers, Xiaoka has been a role player and a substitute. In order to gain a foothold in the team, he must first do what he is good at, such as defense. The second is to be efficient and stable, so that you can gain a firm foothold.

So even if he later entered the starting lineup and even became the team's No. 3 player this season, he is still pursuing stability.

This also determines that it is difficult for the small card to score thirty or forty points in a game, but every game can maintain a good state.

When the opportunity is given to Xiaoka, he can always grasp it firmly.

In a blink of an eye, most of the first quarter has passed.

Coach Luke began to change players, replacing Qin Hao, Butler, and Nene, but left Kaka on the court.

It wasn't until more than one minute left in the first quarter that Coach Luke replaced the small card and praised the small card.

In this section, the small card scored 8 points, 4 of 6 shots, and the efficiency was very high.

......

In a blink of an eye, at the end of the first quarter, the 76ers trailed by one point.

After entering the second quarter, the two sides put on the bench lineup, the 76ers began to gain the upper hand, and soon overtook the score and took the lead.

After a while, Xiaoka was sent up and played with a few substitute players. Lu Wei and the others had a tacit understanding. They fed Xiaoka the ball and let Xiaoka attack.

Xiaoka didn't know that they had reached an agreement in private, but he knew that his teammates gave the ball to him because of his trust in him, and he could not let them down.

"laugh!"

With a soft sound, Kaka started and broke through. After two steps forward, he first leaned on the defender, forcing the opponent to be unable to jump, then took off and took a mid-range shot.

Huh!

Return in.

The first half wasn't over yet, Xiaoka had already scored 10 points and scored in double figures.

This surprised the fans in the audience, and the players of the Knicks. They targeted Qin Hao and Butler, but it was Kaka that broke out today.

For a time, the 76ers not only gained the upper hand, but also continued to expand the points difference.

After just over three minutes, the Knicks head coach couldn't sit still, called a timeout, replaced the main player, and Anthony was also replaced.

This time it became a matchup between Anthony and Kaka.

Looking at the young man with a dull expression in front of him, Anthony couldn't help feeling that Qin Hao, Butler, and Xiaoka, in the offseason of the previous year, he played a warm-up match with these little guys. Kata has the upper hand.

Not only Xiaoka, but at that time Qin Hao was also accurate.

How long has this passed?

Everything has changed. Qin Hao is already an mvp in the regular season, an mvp in the finals, a superstar, strong and not losing to James and Durant, and he is no longer his opponent.

That's all.

But Butler, the two little guys, Xiaoka, have also become so strong, which still makes him feel a little depressed-these one by one, it is a bit too enchanting.

"Huh." Anthony exhaled a foul breath, cleared up his thoughts, and gestured to his teammates to pull away. He started singles and crossed steps continuously, looking at the basket, making a look like he was about to break through. Jump up suddenly and pull directly.
