"Indeed, I just checked the information. The Han Ren's substitute player this year is probably the strongest in history. There are All-Star players, defensive players and scoring champions. Not to mention that this lineup may really beat the Knicks and other starters."

Teacher Xu also agreed with Director Zhang's point of view. He didn't have much confidence to speak for the Knicks now. Even the Knicks' scene was too ugly. Even Kobe could crush you with a group of substitutes. What other good things can he say?

The Han people's substitute strength is probably only traceable back to the substitute group equipped by Bruce for the Supersonics in the previous few seasons.

I have to say that the Han people are really strong this year. This team is full of ideas from inside to outside that I want to win the game, which is amazing.

...

At the end of the first quarter, the Han people led the Knicks by 15 points to enter the rest time.

Kobe has absolute right to shoot, only scored 20 points in the first quarter, including 2 three-pointers and 4 assists. Such gorgeous data can only be found in Jordan. It can be said that Kobe had completed 20+ of this game in advance in the first quarter, and the touch was really hot!

This is the score that Kobe played with four players from the Han people after only three minutes of the game and then got off the court. This completely shocked the media reporters and commentators on the scene. They did not expect that the Knicks, the third in the East, would be defeated by the Han people so vulnerable. By the way, the Knicks will be beaten by three consecutive games?!

Media reporters are now thinking about the next few games. This game is basically out of reach. If the Knicks gets back the touch in the future, they will basically give up if they can't find it back.

Of course, the Knicks players who returned to the bench all looked expressionless and drank water on the chair. Van Gundy didn't know what to say. To be honest, there were three quarters left in the game, and the chase would definitely be recovered, but this must be based on the belief that their players must win and the Han people will perform frequently, which is very difficult to deal with.

What's more, the players' mental state is obviously affected now. It is very difficult to catch the score by taking advantage of the victory and chasing it back. At this time, Van Gundy is unwilling to lose, so he has to fight for it, right!

"Don't think so much. It's just 15 points behind. This is nothing. Think about the Jazz in the West. They can still recover 36 points behind the Nuggets. What does this mean? This shows that as long as we don't give up, we can still create miracles!" Van Gundy continued to clap and encourage his players.

Yes, the Jazz can reverse even if they are so much behind. 15 points are considered a P!

Now all the Knicks players' mentality has been adjusted back.

Let me show that the fact that the Jazz fell behind the Nuggets by 36 points is a real thing.

In the Jazz's home match against the Nuggets on November 28, 1996, the Jazz fell 18 points in the first quarter at 19:37, and they lost 16 points in the second quarter at 17:33, so they fell 34 points in the first half at 36:70, and the entire second half almost became garbage time. The Jazz fell 36 points behind after the start of the third quarter, but led by Carl Malone and Jeff Hornacek, the Jazz recovered 21 points in the third quarter at 36:15.

They entered the fourth quarter with a 13-pointer trailing 72:85. They scored a 35:18 lead in the fourth quarter, and finally successfully reversed and won by 107:103. The big reversal of 36 points behind is also the largest record-breaking score in NBA history. In this game, Carl Malone scored 31 points, 17 rebounds, 6 assists, and Jeff Hornersek scored 29 points, 5 rebounds, and 7 assists, which was the biggest contributor to the Jazz's reversal over the Nuggets led by Bryant Stich.

This is also the score when the biggest score difference in NBA history is reversed.

Since the Jazz can do it, the Knicks can do it too, and this belief has slowly spread on the Knicks bench.

...

Also on the bench on the other side, the Han Chinese players were still chatting and laughing. They all felt that the pressure this game brought them was not too great, and they could completely eat their opponents without bloodshed.

"Kobe, you'll have a rest in the second quarter. I'll arrange for you to play according to the situation!" Paul Westfal said to Kobe's name.

Because Kobe played the first quarter, it is also worth taking a break. Besides, it is also one of the responsibilities of his coach as he can get more substitutes. He stayed on the court and fought alone. What if he was injured? The reason why the Han people have been injured so few times over the years is the rotation system, even in the playoffs.

Just as the prince said, it is completely unnecessary to ruin his career for a championship. Since the boss doesn’t ask for results, then his coach will not ask these players to keep playing in one game!

"Coach, I can still play. The Knicks brought me not much pressure in the first quarter, I..."

This is Kobe's first playoff trip, he doesn't want to leave regrets, he doesn't want to capsize in the gutter and make a round trip, or something. Even if the Knicks' condition is worrying today, he will seize the opportunity to defeat his opponent. Football has the last minute to rewrite the score, and basketball is not the same. Han talent is leading by 15 points. If he is on the court, he may be able to kill the opponent's counterattack as soon as possible, and try to eat the opponent in one breath and let them give up the game completely.

According to Kobe's plan, he was willing to rest after ensuring that the Han people could win the game. But now the coach asked him to rest at the beginning of the second quarter, so wouldn't he have to refrigerate his hot feel?!

"Kobe, you have to know that this round of series will win three games. A temporary victory or defeat is no big deal. But what if you have an injury when playing for too long, it is OK to take a proper rest. You have to obey the order!" Paul Westfal interrupted Kobe and gave him a harsh order to death.

Paul Westfal can still use Kobe's temperament when playing the regular season because he knows that Kobe's competitive spirit is the strongest in the team. Besides, he doesn't want to hit Kobe's enthusiasm, but the playoffs are different. This is a whole body that affects Kobe's whole body. Now is not the time for Kobe to show off.

"You will play in the second half from Dell, and Steve, you will also play, Mark will play for you."

Replacing Kobe and Nash with Dell Curry and Mark Jackson is undoubtedly Paul Westfal has some considerations. The Knicks will definitely attack in the second quarter. At this time, the veteran needs to play on the court. With Mark Jackson's experience and stable organization, coupled with Dell Curry who is good at scoring, Paul Westfal believes that the Han people can still be in an unbeaten position.

At the same time, if the game progress is not satisfactory, he can also replace Nash and Kobe, the two new forces, so that they can play their advantages together, right?

Dell Curry and Mark Jackson also nodded. These two old guys are both old-fashioned, so they can do whatever the head coach told them.
Chapter completed!
