0474: [Undeliberate Disaster](1/2)
"Bruce, the most passable point guard in my mind."
"My peak has not yet arrived. With my running ability and projection ability, I am definitely not just a three-point shooter of this level."
"I will shine in New York. I will prove that I am the best shooter in NBA!"
After learning that he was traded to New York, Garcia couldn't wait to post three updates on her personal website. At the end, she didn't forget to add #Francisco vs all three-point shooters!#tag.
His ambitions were eager to break free from the cage and bloom.
However, it has attracted a lot of criticism.
Basketball experts think he is too frivolous, and young shooter Reddick pointed at him in a dream. There is also Pejastokjakovic, who has gone to the Hornets before playing in the Kings. He claimed that Garcia's three-pointer has not yet entered the house, and it is impossible to rely on Bruce's help to become a top shooter.
Francisco himself did not respond to this at all, but wrote on his personal homepage: Believe in the process.
Li Zhen was stunned for a moment.
Francisco's sudden outbreak triggered a shock in the shooting circle. Many media even listed the top ten strongest shooters in the league today: Ray Allen, Peja, Nash, Capono, McMiller, Nowitzki, Redick, Brent Barry, Gibson, and Anthony Parker ranked in the top ten.
This ranking is fair.
However, it also seemed cruel. Francesco didn't even enter the top ten, and Quentin Richardson was also defeated. However, there were two people around King James, and a hidden boss Szebiac.
No wonder Garcia was ridiculed by the crowd.
However, Li Zhen sent a text message to Garcia: The dream of being ridiculed will be more valuable to realize, come on!
This text message cheered Garcia. The encouragement from the new and old master made him full of energy, as if he was injected with chicken blood.
This may be the reason why he almost fought Quentin in his first training class.
Compared to calling Francisco to encourage him, he really didn't know what form to support him in the face of Sheldon's resentment.
Sheldon is challenging the entire Hawks Club and the culture of this team.
"I'm very happy to return to the East, and even more so... not to go back to Atlanta. I'm definitely not disrespectful to the people of Atlanta, but I really can't like a chaotic team."
"I can finally play for a great head coach, I can finally play for a team that is selfless in offense and defense. I can finally work with a point guard who can pass the basketball to every position!"
"I can no longer stand basketball spinning around in front of my eyes, and I do nothing. I can no longer accept that when I try my best to hold on to the opponent, my teammates are thinking about how to grab the rebound."
"I have never been a parallel person! All the previous statements about my career were false. I have to stand up and tell the whole world that I am still the landlord of the restricted area."
Sheldon Williams said this and went to war with the Atlanta Hawks Club.
He described the Eagles as a selfish group with no tactical logic, where he was wasting his life and carrying a bad reputation.
In his own words: "I am a team player, but I'm helpless. I'm not in a real team."
The Eagles fought back after hearing this.
Josh Smith was the first to jump out and accused Sheldon of claiming to be arrogant, saying that the team gave him enough opportunities back then, but he couldn't control it. Now, in the end, he still blames the team.
Marvin Williams also believes that Sheldon is deliberately trying to please the new team, and he will definitely suffer the consequences. And he will fight against Sheldon next time he meets.
In addition, their head coach Woodson was also particularly angry. The point he was angry was: "Sheldon actually called Isaiah Thomas a great head coach? He is not only humiliating me, but also humiliating all head coaches in the league!!"
At that time, Isaiah Thomas fought back: "I have the highest record in the league, who are you?"
Thomas was confident.
It caused a storm again.
For a moment, there was a tendency to lead the war to the Knicks vs. The Hawks.
However, the Knicks are not afraid of trouble. On the first day when Sheldon walked into the locker room with his bag, Zach Randolph told him: If you help me carry my bag in the future, I will protect you. If the Eagles dare to touch you, I will help you stand up.
Forehead….
Sheldon, who is both good at character and academic, did not expect that the first boss he went to the new team was Randolph, who did everything he wanted to get along with Bruce.
However, what he didn't expect was.
In the team's first training class, Li Zhen actually took the initiative to apply for the substitute lineup. He led the main lineup led by Matt Barnes, Francesco Garcia, Sheldon Williams, Foyer and Marbury to confront the main lineup.
In this training class.
The four new players all felt Li Zhen’s passing skills and completely different game styles.
For Garcia, as long as he can run out of space, Li Zhen's ball will be just right and very comfortable to deliver to him.
And Sheldon Williams finally enjoyed the fun of the team.
Whenever he has the chance, Li Zhen will pass the ball to him and let him play singles with his defense. At the same time, when he is stuck at the top of the defense, Foyer and Matt Barnes will also come to help.
Although Foyer's movement ability is not strong, his defensive efficiency is very poor.
But it still made him feel the harmony of Duke.
And, as the coaching staff partnered with him in the second half, he immediately felt like he was in a state of water.
Sheldon moves very quickly in the three-second zone and is very good at hitting his opponent's lower plate.
Eddie Griffin is a master-level defender, he is good at driving out breakthroughs. Moreover, he has extremely strong blocking ability.
The two collaborated and blocked Randolph twice within ten minutes, destroying the main team's inside damage many times.
Jamillyn, Stevens and Boris were stunned on the sidelines.
They didn't expect these two people to perform such a miraculous effect.
Both of them can only be considered scraps in other teams, but when they arrived at the Knicks, they turned into magic.
Isaiah Thomas is indeed the top coach in charge of the general trend. You can see the chemistry at a glance. It’s amazing! Great!!
Three assistant coaches were amazed at the same time.
Garcia actually twisted with Quentin Richardson and was about to fight. Fortunately, his teammates separated the two in time.
In this match, Garcia was very uncomfortable in defending Quentin.
Although Garcia's physical confrontation was not very good, her defensive end was extremely active, and she ran after Richardson like a mad dog.
Richardson was already worried about the new Sagittarius. After all, he used to enjoy this bowl of porridge alone, but now someone has the money to share it, so he can't help but eat it. This is also a natural thing.
In addition, Francisco had a very strong desire to perform, and with the help of Li Zhen, he kept hitting three points, which set off his strength.
So, after Garcia pushed him to the bottom corner this time, he burst into emotions and twisted Garcia, and the two of them fell into a ball.
Almost didn't fight.
After the incident, Isaiah Thomas stopped the game.
After verbal criticism, he turned around, meaning that Stephen Marbury was in charge of ideological work.
Although the two still don’t talk much now, they have formed a certain understanding.
So, Stephen Marbury, who was in charge of ideological work, called Buddhist enthusiast Quentin Richardson aside.
Li Zhen called Garcia over.
"Do you like defense?" Li Zhen asked him.
like!
Garcia answered very firmly.
"good."
Li Zhen nodded, then called another mad dog, Barnes, and asked them to come and defend themselves with all their might.
The storm soon subsided.
"What a hopeful team!"
Jamilin looked at the training hall where he performed his duties and felt that everything was so beautiful.
...
Because the New Orleans Hornets are in the Southwest Division, they only have two chances to play against the Knicks this season. After being crazily knocked down by the Knicks at home last time, they finally have a chance to retaliate.
Chris Paul also prepared a lot for this.
He is one of only two point guards with 20+11 this season. Unfortunately... the other one is Li Zhen. Last game was also promoted as the NBA's first point guard battle, although it was left alone.
But this time, if he loses again, the New York media will basically confirm the matter and no longer give him a chance to turn the tables.
Therefore, this game cannot be missed for him.
And he also took advantage of the last chance in this game. He did not make any noise before the game with great fanfare, and his teammates Tyson Chandler, David West and others also remained silent.
Head coach Byron Scott even reminded before the game: We should act low-key this time, and we should take advantage of the opportunity when the Knicks just completed the transaction and defeat them in one fell swoop, and then show off their power!
However, they were lost again.
When Chris Paul faced Li Zhen, when they met for the first time, Paul instantly felt that Li Zhen had made progress again, and the progress was very obvious. Whether it was a power confrontation or the use of technical movements.
These two items were originally his advantages.
But now, Li Zhen is narrowing this disadvantage.
And, the desperate thing is that Chris Paul found that no matter how hard he tried, he could not narrow his disadvantages... because height is fixed and wisdom is also innate.
Chris Paul could only patiently and meticulously sort out the offense and provide output to the team through his personal offensive ability.
He played very well.
To be continued...
