"Stephen Marbury played for half a quarter and didn't seem to sweat a single drop?"

TNT's camera swept across the Knicks bench, and Charles Barkley brought up the matter suddenly.

Kenny Smith on the side murmured: "In the first quarter of the game, either Snoopy was rushing with the ball, or Eddie Curry was in back singles. His playing role is no different from that of Chris Duhon. He just dribbled the ball. It's only halftime, what can you sweat?"

As soon as his words fell, Earl Johnson understood it, and he suddenly realized: "Is the Knicks' hole card Stephen Marbury?"

Beep!

The whistle sounded and the game continued in the second quarter.

really.

The Knicks put on a new lineup: David Lee, Doug, Jeffries, Gallinari, Stephen Marbury.

"Are they going to confront the Atlantans?"

Earl Johnson just raised this question.

The Eagles on the court immediately let go of the rhythm, and McWoodson shouted from the side of the court: "Stabilize the rhythm and eat the inside!!"

He did not shy away from shouting out his intentions to let the Knicks know, because he knew...with David Lee and Snoopy's inside lineup, he would definitely not be able to stop Marvin and El’s attack.

Mike Bibby took the ball to the frontcourt and quickly handed it to Al Horford. Al Horford held the ball to face his seniors. They had a wonderful time at the University of Florida, and they still maintain a good time. Personal relationship.

But this does not mean that Horford will put water on the court.

He knows every shortcoming of this senior in defense.

Therefore, he easily used a downward pressure probing step, and the highly nervous David Lee subconsciously retreated to defend.

Immediately Horford tapped slightly upwards, and David Lee stepped up again, for fear of shooting... He was played by Horford like a puppet.

While he stepped forward, Horford quickly rushed into the waist, completed the breakthrough from the left, and rushed into the basket from the free throw line in two strides. Just as he jumped high and tried to dunk, a blue shadow galloped from the right side. He quickly turned to buckle and flicked his finger, preparing to end the fight with a layup.

However, Snoopy jumped too fast and too high, which deformed his layup to avoid blocking.

boom!

The basketball failed to get into the Nets fortunately. Instead, he slid out, and Doug, who had just landed, jumped up again and grabbed the basketball before Horford.

Then it passed to Stephen Marbury, stretched out his hand and slapped David Lee and then slowly moved forward.

If you put aside the defense, David is definitely the league's quasi-first-line power forward. His basic offensive skills are very solid, both left and right hands can attack, excellent face-to-face and off-the-ball cutting ability, low post skills are qualified, the basket position and grab points are extremely talented, and he has rare inside players. Coping ability. The only headache is defense.

Despite his hard work, he is very positive. But his hard work and aggressiveness are of no use except for the better and better hand of his defending opponents.

Therefore, before going on the court in the second quarter, Duque specifically confessed to him: "Perhaps you can be a little less aggressive to defend. If I stand in the low position on the right, you put the opponent on the left. If I stand in the low position on the left, you Just put the opponent to the right."

David Lee agreed. He did a good job just now. Freed Horford.

Stephen Marbury quickly brought the ball to the frontcourt. He and David Lee completed the pick-and-roll at the elbow, attracting the Hawks to change defense and then quickly hit the ground to pass the ball to David Lee, who cut through the air, and David Lee scored to the basket. , With the help of Duge card, easily scored a layup.

Seeing the senior scoring, El Horford felt helpless.

Turning his head, he played back-up singles in the low post... With Marvin Williams driving Dugra to the free throw line, he easily stepped back and took a jumper... Huh!

Looking back, the Knicks are still running and bombing. And it was the classic V-shaped pick-and-roll between Marbury and David Lee... David Lee scored a jumper in the high post.

David Lee's impact and scoring explosive power are far inferior to Stoudemire, but his coping ability is worse than Stoudemire. He successfully linked up with Marbury to attack from the outside, coupled with Doug's ability to hold the defense under the basket, and the advantage of controlling the second rebound, the Knicks' offensive efficiency did not show a downward trend.

The Hawks also played well with the double shots of Joe Johnson and Mike Bibby.

58:56.

The end of the first half.

With Gallinari's three-pointer in the countdown stage, the Knicks successfully surpassed the point difference by 2 points.

But... the smile on McWoodson's face is even stronger.

After a period of crazy running and bombing, Stephen Marbury's physical fitness is obviously declining rapidly, and everyone can see his fatigue from his rapid breathing on the soaked jersey. Even if he takes a 15-minute break, in the second half, he will last at most for another five minutes. Even if he gritted his teeth for one quarter, what about the fourth quarter?

McWoodson enjoys this kind of watching... the Knicks lighting up all the cards one by one.

"Tonight Eddie Curry, David Lee, Stephen Marbury all played 200% of their strength. They played extremely well, they took the lead for the Knicks in the half. But now I can't help but What about the Knicks in the second half?"

Earl Johnson said in the midfield review: "Eddie Curry and Stephen Marbury are not young boys. One of them is obese, the other is close to 33 years old and has not trained well in the previous two years. Resilience is long and inefficient. Don’t expect them to create a second miracle. Putting them on the court based on their condition will not help other than increasing the risk of injury.”

"The Knicks can no longer bear injuries." Kenny Smith emphasized: "It's a fluke miracle that they can get here this season. I believe Knicks fans don't want to hear about injuries anymore. Actually Many New Yorkers are ready for failure."

"So, what do you mean is that the Knicks will lose tonight?" Charles Barkley turned his head suddenly, and he asked the two partners.

"No, it's not just that the Knicks lost tonight." Kenny Smith replied with a smile: "But, they are finished for the entire series."

Earl Johnson pursed his lips and nodded. Although he was not as happy as Kenny Smith, he did think there was no suspense in this series.

"But... Snoopy hasn't played yet. He is the Knicks' trump card, isn't he?" Charles Barkley emphasized.

"Snoopy's influence lies in coordinating, in defense, not in scoring." Kenny Smith said: "In the second half, when Stephen Marbury and Eddie Curry were unable to play. In fact, none of the Knicks could hold the ball anymore. Players who create offenses, they can only rely on passing the ball from the three-point line again and again to find a mobile opportunity, maybe Snoopy can use his fancy breakthrough to penetrate to the basket. But, I think LeBron in Orlando The encounter must have given the Atlantans a lot of inspiration. They will let Snoopy do what he wants to do, except pass the ball and connect his teammates."

Kenny Smith’s voice is actually the mainstream now.

Whether it's the home team's locker room, the audience, or the fans in front of the TV... Everyone thinks this series is over, and the Knicks' luck ends here.

However, in the visiting team's locker room, it was completely different.

Even though Eddie Curry collapsed on the locker, he still took out his notebook ‘disabled’ and clicked on the video to share with his teammates around him.

"Your Excellency Snoopy, it's time to take out your swaying beat! Listen to this high-frequency impact, this speed alone is enough to make Atlantans unable to walk upright."

Eddie Curry yelled over there.

Before that, Stephen Marbury talked to the players about Dugge's weird shooting. He said that he has never seen someone who shoots more accurately in a difficult state. This may be the only case on this planet.

Then Eddie Curry's smart brain began to diverge. He took out his laptop and emphasized to his teammates: "Actually, this is the longest car-shock video I have ever watched in my life. This difficulty is much higher than on a soft and comfortable bed. This is definitely a historical level. Talent."

The teammates watched the dark and monotonous shaking video with excitement. The sound in the video made the atmosphere in the dressing room very strange.

The duke, who was both shy and embarrassed, finally couldn't bear it three minutes later. He took the notebook and closed it fiercely.

At this time, the **** group of guys actually began to analyze the connection between the ‘car-zhen’ and the ‘difficult jumper’.

This makes Du Ge a little guilty.

And Eddie Curry’s'frosted face' clearly looks'stupid as a pig', but it actually made him infer the'truth': Through the comparison of this video with the shot, we can clearly draw the conclusion: Nubby is born to swing, he is more stable in the difficult scenes of shaking.

And ~lightnovelpub.net~ he made a bold prediction: "Snoopy, why don't you try it in the space capsule? Maybe you can extend the time to 2 hours in a vacuum."

This prediction caused laughter throughout the locker room.

Obviously, the Knicks players just take this as a joke to adjust the tension. Most of them still think that the video has nothing to do with Snoopy, after all... the time is too long, and... there are police officers on duty, which is too unsuitable for the United States. And the most important thing is... no one really associates shooting with the car-zhen.

This is too far-fetched.

"Okay, pick up these loose emotions and prepare for battle. It's time to end Atlanta's unrealistic self-righteousness, and it's time to let those arrogant commentators suffer the consequences."

Doug walked to the center of the court, raised his fists, everyone walked up solemnly, put their fists on his fists, and gathered them together.

Lord Duke blew the final horn: "Fighting!"
