Chapter 108 The passing master is upgraded, and the audience turns to MVP!
Isaiah Thomas reluctantly called a timeout.
The Knicks have huge problems on both ends of the floor.
On the offensive end, they were completely unorganized. On the defensive end, they were no longer unable to limit a certain Suns player, but were unable to guard the entire Suns team.
"You guys don't deserve to wear a Knicks jersey!"
"Dolan get out!"
"Dolan is selling the team!"
"Isaiah Thomas dismissed!"
During the timeout, fans held up signs prepared before the game.
Knicks fans' feelings towards the Knicks are somewhat similar to Chinese fans' feelings towards the Chinese national football team.
I love and hate them all, scolding and watching them at the same time.
The Knicks players gathered around the bench with expressionless faces. They are used to this kind of scene. If the fans don't scold them one day, they will be a little uncomfortable.
"The Knicks had problems with their coordination, and the players lost contact like a kite with a broken string." Mike Breen said with a smile in the commentary box.
In fact, Mike Breen gave me face. It wasn't that the Knicks had a problem with their cooperation, but that they didn't cooperate.
"The Knicks players look like they haven't woken up. Maybe they need a little coffee to refresh themselves." Van Gundy shook his head aside.
Van Gundy was once the head coach of the New York Knicks and has a special affection for this team. Naturally, he will unconsciously bring his own personal emotions into his commentary.
After the timeout, the Knicks made substitution adjustments.
David Lee and Wilson Chandler replaced Eddie Curry and Big Q Richardson. Knicks coach Isaiah Thomas wanted to use young people to stimulate the team's offense.
This substitution also achieved a certain effect. David Lee used the second offense to cause a foul as soon as he came up.
After making two free throws, the Knicks' scoring drought was finally broken.
However, Knicks fans are still criticizing, and 12-2 does not look much better than 12-0.
Sun attack.
Dior quick hair.
This time, there was no pass to Nash, but a long pass through the crowd to find Chen Yan at half court.
Facing Crawford's defense, Chen Yan accelerated all the way and pushed flat!
Crawford has a very thin physique. Although he is 198cm tall, he only weighs 185 pounds (84 kilograms).
Chen Yan weighs 93kg, which is already considered a light outside line. Crawford is nearly 20kg lighter than him. You can imagine the confrontation.
Chen Yan didn't use too many skills and squeezed Crawford into the free throw line.
Crawford had no choice but to give Chen Yan a loving hug the moment he started.
"Beep!"
The moment the referee blew the whistle, Chen Yan threw a random throw to the basket.
The ball did not trigger the acrobatic end, and the basketball hit the board.
"Bang!"
"Whoa!"
Chen Yan made one of two free throws and then the ball changed.
Marbury made a three-pointer after shaking continuously, and the ball hit the wind and hit the net.
13 to 5.
However, the Knicks' offense did not improve because of Marbury's three-pointer.
In the next two rounds, Marbury made a pass error and was directly intercepted by Chen Yan.
On the next dead ball, Knicks head coach Isaiah Thomas replaced Marbury.
Marbury did not have any interaction with Isaiah Thomas when he came off the court, and the two passed by each other like strangers.
Their conflict has become public, and Marbury now feels that everything Isaiah Thomas does is against him.
At this time, Chen Yan once again completed the steal on the court!
When Wilson Chandler made a sudden score and was about to pass the ball to Crawford, Chen Yan quickly threw out [God-Level Stealing Ball] with quick eyes and hands!
He stole the ball and launched a counterattack on the spot.
The Suns' three-line fast break was organized and spread out.
The Knicks scrambled to retreat.
Chen Yan cuts inside, attracting the Knicks' defense to shrink and then decisively activates the skill [Pass Master].
A behind-the-back pass without looking at anyone, and the ball was directly handed to Nash who was following up from outside the three-point line.
"Whoosh!"
Nash raised his hand in the open position and shot, piercing the net!
"Beautiful pass! With Chen's presence, Nash will no longer be the only ball-handling point in the Suns' counterattack. In this way, the Suns will have more offensive options in the counterattack, and the threat will be much greater than last season.
." Mike Breen analyzed the scene on the field.
Just as Chen Yan and Nash were high-fiving each other in celebration, the system prompts in his head also rang.
"Ding! The passing master has been upgraded!"
"Passing Master lv2 (Active): Improves the host's passing stability by 7% and passing accuracy by 7%. Teammates will have a 4% improvement in hit rate within 3 seconds after receiving the host's pass."
Upgraded?
Chen Yan smiled, this was a little surprise in the game.
After upgrading [Passing Master], the attribute bonuses have been slightly improved compared to before, so your passing success rate and assist efficiency should be higher.
At 3 minutes and 16 seconds into the first quarter, Chen Yan came off the court with 16 points, 5 assists and 3 steals.
In the second half of the first quarter, the Knicks' touch improved somewhat, but there was still not much improvement on the defensive end.
The players' defensive attitude is not active, and they often miss people on the defensive end. In addition, they have never been able to find a good way to defend against the Suns' defensive lightning counterattacks.
In the first quarter, the Suns led the Knicks by 16 points, 31-15.
In the second quarter, D'Antoni arranged for Chen Yan to play with the second lineup.
The Knicks also fielded a second team led by Nate Robinson and David Lee.
As soon as Nate Robinson came up, he used the screen to get inside and hit a one-handed dunk! The visual impact is full!
The home fans burst into cheers. After all, this was one of the few bright spots for the Knicks tonight.
Nate Robinson brings offensive vitality, but his length is a black hole on the defensive end.
In the Suns' offensive round, Barea held the ball at the top of the arc, and Chen Yan took the initiative to cover for him.
Even in the second team, Chen Yan cannot hold the ball indefinitely, and running without the ball is one of his special skills.
After covering Chen Yan, the Knicks changed defense, and little potato Nate Robinson appeared next to Chen Yan.
Barea hit the ground immediately and handed the ball to Chen Yan, who was one step outside the penalty area.
An opportunity to beat the big to the small!
Facing Nate, whose official height is 175cm but his actual height is about 170cm, Chen Yan was not polite.
After dribbling one step laterally, Chen Yan raised his hands high and easily shot the basket inside!
Nate Robinson's jumping was very good, but he couldn't jump at all after the physical confrontation, and Chen Yan used his height advantage to beat him.
Chen Yan couldn't help but smile when he retreated to the defensive half. He never thought that one day he would be able to play high in the paint...
After tasting the sweetness, Chen Yan started the strategy of continuous roll call!
Use pick-and-roll defense to bully Nate Robinson like crazy!
The 1v1 rhythm was swaying and then a pull-up three-pointer was hit!
After dribbling back, he easily hit a three-pointer over Nate Robinson!
After being singled out continuously, Nate Robinson's temper got a little bit worse.
Directly lower the center of gravity and press closely to defend, as if Chen Yan is going to fight!
Chen Yan held the ball with one hand at a 45-degree angle from outside the three-point line, without any extra movement, and just pulled out his hand.
Windward facial cumshots Nate!
"Whoa!"
The basketball hit the net like a cannonball, and water splashed everywhere!
Facing Nate, who is 175cm tall, Chen Yan said, "I'm just giving you face. What if you just pull it out and do it to me?"
After scoring three three-pointers in a row, Chen Yan started raining three-pointers alone at Madison Square Garden!
"Chen played very smartly in these rounds, continuously using his height advantage to beat Nate Robinson to the point of losing his temper." Mike Breen said with a smile.
"This is the kind of player that the coach likes the most. He knows how to maximize his own advantages." Van Gundy returned to his old profession and analyzed Chen Yan from a coach's perspective.
Isaiah Thomas had no choice but to replace Nate Robinson in advance.
Nate averaged 12.5 points per game this season and is considered one of the Knicks' most important substitutes. His early dismissal will have a certain impact on the team's firepower.
In the next few minutes, Chen Yan continued to start shooting training mode.
After hitting three three-pointers in a row, Chen Yan's outside touch was completely missed.
The Knicks' main force couldn't restrain Chen Yan, and the substitutes certainly couldn't restrain him.
At 6 minutes and 57 seconds into the second quarter, the Suns' main players returned one after another.
After an indiscriminate bombardment, the score on the court was 57 to 35, and the difference between the two sides had widened to 22 points.
The big lead also allowed the Suns' main players to start enjoying the game.
Nash and Diaw sent alley-oops to their teammates one after another.
Chen Yan, Stoudemire and Grant Hill drove their different types of bombers and took turns attacking the basket in Madison Square Garden!
The Knicks players look a little embarrassed, they are becoming the backdrop for the Suns' performance moment!
"yeahhhhhhhh!"
"What a ball!"
"Perfect cooperation, teaching the Knicks players how to behave!"
In Madison Square Garden, Knicks fans have begun to cheer for the visiting team!
On the one hand, the Suns' basketball style is indeed gorgeous and pleasing to the eye.
On the other hand, Knicks fans want to disgust the players and management who are not living up to expectations.
The second quarter lasted 2 minutes and 01 seconds.
Chen Yan accurately cut the ball to steal Big Q Richardson during the transition between offense and defense!
This is also Chen Yan’s 7th steal of the game!
After stealing the ball, the member turned around, passed Crawford and handed the ball to Nash.
The sun’s blitz begins again!
Nash advanced quickly, suddenly stopped near the free throw line, flicked his hair and threw the ball into the air.
Chen Yan is like a god descending to earth!
In this round, he was both the initiator and the finisher of the attack!
David Lee jumped hard in the penalty area to stop this alley-oop!
After the alley-oop confrontation, Chen Yan caused a foul on David Lee!
The moment the referee blew the whistle, Chen Yan folded the lever and scored!
and-one!!
Full marks for core strength!
After scoring this goal, Chen Yan's personal data has risen to 36 points, 7 assists and 7 steals!
The moment Chen Yan stood on the free throw line, the home fans completely switched sides!
"mvp!!"
"mvp!!"
"mvp!!"
Swift smiled happily on the sidelines. Unlike Staples Arena, no one would boo her when she shouted Chen Yan's name here.
Swift quickly integrated into the atmosphere at the scene, and the fans here shouted MVP with her.
"Knicks fans have always had a tradition of defecting, but this is the first time I've seen them defect for a rookie." Mike Breen said with a smile.
"That guy must be feeling very happy now. After all, not everyone can enjoy this kind of treatment in an away game, and it's also in a basketball mecca like Madison Square Garden!" Van Gundy added on the sidelines.
Chen Yan is indeed very happy. This feeling of conquering the away fans makes him very satisfied.
After the penalty was awarded, Chen Yan did not forget to blow a kiss to the fans in the stands. This was his enthusiastic feedback to the fans at the scene.
After Kim Kardashian saw Chen Yan's actions, she said angrily to Khloe on the side: "Did you see it? This blowing kiss was obviously directed at me!"
Khloe Kardashian: "Are you sure?"
"Of course, it's impossible for him not to notice me. Maybe he will come to my bedroom tonight."
Kim Kardashian is very confident in herself, and as long as she takes the initiative, there is no man she cannot win.
