Chapter 727 Brother, Are You Finished?
On the 3rd, the Knicks' five-game trip to the West opened with the Rockets, one of the top three players in Texas.
Harden, who was facing a big enemy, fled into the nightclub in Houston immediately, but disappeared.
This season, the Rockets defeated the Knicks in an away game. Harden knew very well that Lin Yi, who has always been calculating, came to revenge this time.
So, in order to defeat the big devil, Harden resolutely decided to pay tribute to the great Pat Riley before the game.
It's time to start a new special training and unlock a higher level of Sharingan!
Coincidentally, Howard, another member of the Rockets, is also ready to fight.
For Howard, who aspires to become the CEO of Space City, how can he watch his little brother Harden being bullied by Lin Yi?
The last time against the Knicks, although the Rockets won, Howard played quite mediocre. In this game, Warcraft believes that it is time for him to prove that he is the number one center in the league.
So, in order to protect Harden's smile, Howard resolutely bid farewell to the nightclub, and started crazy special training with several of his male friends before the game.
Lin Yi who arrived in Houston was very depressed, because since Dayao stopped playing for the Rockets, there was no sweet tofu brain to eat when he came to Houston...
Jeremy Lin and Lin Yi had a light meal together before the game. This season, Jeremy Lin, who is affectionately called Xiao Linzi by Chinese fans, had the same encounter with the Rockets as Lin Yi remembered, and the status of the team was a bit embarrassing.
Although McHale is also a head coach who is good at Xia Ji's dominance, but in terms of singles tactics and ball distribution, McHale obviously cannot be as meticulous as D'Antoni.
Of course, part of the reason for this is because the Rockets have to arrange low post tactics for Howard.
Oh, poor monster...
You know, after coming to Houston, even Howard himself didn't notice that his tactical status in the Rockets is not as good as in the Lakers...
This rocket has a fast pace, and most of the time Warcraft is either running back and forth or running back and forth.
In the game where the Rockets beat the Lakers on Christmas Day, Howard's performance was very average.
Warcraft only took 7 shots in the whole game,
And in McHale's view, Howard took 7 shots too much...
There is no way, it is impossible for the pretentious Howard to accept Capela's position, but unfortunately, people are just afraid of what will happen, even if Howard is not willing in the future, he will still be a Capela?
Moreover, this may be the worst time that Cake Emperor has been hacked in his career.
The current Jeremy Lin is not addicted to hair gel. In the new season, he can average 11.2 points and 4.1 assists per game.
Jeremy Lin's biggest problem is that his shooting is not stable enough, and his style of play is also very easy to get injured. Lin Yi gave Jeremy Lin a suggestion, that is, to actively apply to play the sixth man.
"Little Linzi" has a strong breakthrough ability, and his first step is even faster than many black defenders.
As the so-called step back, in the NBA, it is not ashamed to give up starting. Lin Yi remembers that in the future Jamal Crawford will belong to the kind of player who you let him play the main force and he will be anxious with you.
The Rockets' bench lineup has no players who can compete with Jeremy Lin. As long as Jeremy Lin is alone, the statistics will be even better than they are now.
Jeremy Lin's current Chinese level is much better than when he first entered the league. He said to Lin Yi with some doubts: "Old brother Lin, will I be too... cowardly?"
Lin Yi smiled. In fact, Lin Yi, who knows how the future trajectory will develop, knows very well that after January, McHale will take the initiative to put Jeremy Lin on the bench in order to pursue a record.
Although the Rockets in this life do not have Beverly and Jeremy Lin competing for positions, McHale also understands that Howard, who is unwilling to defend against pick-and-rolls, must be equipped with a point guard who can defend against pick-and-rolls.
This is not to say that Jeremy Lin's defense is not good. After all, the Rockets' own flank configuration also had problems during this period.
Parsons still has strength before he gets a big contract, but he is not as good as Ariza and Tucker in the future in terms of assist defense and single defense.
If the Rockets do not change their lineup, they will not even reach the playoffs in the Western Conference where there are so many strong players.
Jeremy Lin is just a victim of McHale's evolution.
The data may not reflect the actual situation of the game, but the data will not lie. Jeremy Lin's net rating in this rocket is second only to Harden and Parsons, and even slightly higher than Howard... ...
But there is no way, things like poison contracts, to put it bluntly, when Morey signed Jeremy Lin, he didn't consider keeping Jeremy Lin for a long time.
Jeremy Lin is not in the Rockets' future plans, so it is difficult to get real investment from the Rockets.
"Look, you are starting now, and you are responsible for dribbling the ball across half court and then handing the ball to Harden. Do you feel comfortable playing yourself?" Lin Yi asked Jeremy Lin.
Jeremy Lin nodded in embarrassment... Lin Yi speaks too directly, and doesn't beat around the bush at all.
"So, do you still think playing the sixth man is a bad thing? Besides, Dwight has problems on the offensive end. He has blocked the inside line, so you can't break through even if you want to break through?" Lin Yi continued to add road.
If others say that Howard has a problem, Jeremy Lin may not believe it, but this is what Lin Yi said... Jeremy Lin thinks about it again, it seems that Howard has a problem!
Just kidding, if Howard was really a treasure, everyone would have been rushing to have him.
In the future NBA, space is king, and Howard will have a ghost if he is not eliminated.
Jeremy Lin's style of play needs space, and it is more conducive to his performance to bring the Rockets as a substitute, and he will actively apply to play the sixth man, which will be much better than passively playing the sixth man in the future.
At least in the eyes of the coach, this is the player who took the initiative to stand up and help him solve the problem.
No coach would like the kind of player who keeps fighting. Jeremy Lin took the initiative to apply to play the sixth man. McHale is not Scott, so he will definitely add some tactics to Jeremy Lin.
Jeremy Lin felt that after hearing Lin Yi finished speaking, he suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.
And Lin Yi felt that after he retired, he should become a radio host, like a confidant brother.
"Oh... I'm really too kind!" Lin Yi thought with emotion.
...
The Knicks did not give the Rockets a chance in this game against the Rockets. The Knicks lost to the Rockets in the last game, and a big reason was because the Knicks themselves relaxed their vigilance.
In this game against the Rockets, the Knicks took the initiative to slow down and not disrupt the battle with the Rockets.
It's really such a stern game, this Rockets are not the opponents of the Knicks.
Toyota Center, the Rockets fans at the scene were dizzy... because once upon a time, this kind of low post tactics was their best skill!
It's a pity... Howard, a technical genius, is a bit stiff in throwing the shot put.
Although Harden cheated 14 free throws this night, on the Knicks side, porcelain king Lin Yi also made 12 free throws.
So, after a few rounds with Lin Yi in the opening game, Howard spent most of the game on the bench.
And when Howard was finally on the court, the Knicks ruthlessly used the hacking tactics.
Angrily, Howard wanted to pull out his samurai sword and slash at Lin Yi.
Because of this bastard, he played "free throw with eyes closed" again!
