Chapter 183 The storm is coming, the deal is concluded
Zuo Li scoffed at Rondo's statement, he really wanted to say that it was really because of me, isn't this kind of weird data really a choice printed in your DNA...
But there is one thing to say, Rondo is indeed very good. Tonight, the Knicks lost at the back line. Neither Duhon nor Keliu can pose a substantial threat to Rondo.
In a 94-85 game, 15 assists is not a joke, and his two points are really not what others defended. Some guards like to pass the ball. .
Yes, it's you, Mo William Moss!
Otherwise, Zhan Huang would lose so badly this year!
Of course, Rondo’s basket is really not very good. This period belongs to the kind where he can let go of 2 meters and he dare not shoot, but Rondo will not shoot if he can’t stand him. Knowing how to make use of strengths and avoid weaknesses is also the survival rule of an excellent guard one of them.
And after the middle of 16, you can believe that the three-pointer guided by Long has been practiced, especially the two bottom corners. If you dare to let others go, you really dare to enter. This kind of hard work and unyielding spirit is worth learning for everyone.
Yes, it's you, Ben Simmons.
However, the Knicks' trade seems to be imperative. Tonight, when Zuo Li focused on fighting the opponent's inside, he couldn't take into account the outside dribble, and the Knicks' problem of disconnection between inside and outside was exposed.
In the past, the Knicks basically relied on the inside line to win, so I won’t say much about Zuo Li. Randolph’s average of 15+7 per game can also be called the mainstay. David Lee also has 9+6, still in the case of not many possessions. And this insider did not get enough support, and the Knicks lost decisively.
"Where should I find a reliable defender?"
After the loss, Zuo Li, who returned to the hotel, buried himself in the room, and began to recall the big fish in the free market during this period in his mind.
In fact, there are quite a few people who meet the requirements of the Knicks, such as Paul, such as Nash, a Knicks will have a qualitative change.
But this is nonsense. Which team these two people go to will have a qualitative change, so these people are impossible. Although they will leave their respective teams in a few years, the Knicks can also start at that time, but far from They can't quench their thirst, they are absolutely not for sale for their respective teams now, and the Knicks don't have enough bargaining chips to exchange.
Pass!
And think about the Knicks' original transaction during this time period.
Traded Keliu for Harrington from the Warriors, traded Zach Randolph and Maddy Collins from the Clippers for Tim Thomas, Cutino Mobley, and traded Jerome James, Larry Hughes from Bulls for Tim Thomas, Chris Wilcox from Thunder for Malik Rose, Tauri Green from Nuggets for Renaldo Buckman and some cash Bobby Jones, a 2010 second-round pick.
"What the hell is this..." Zuo Li looked at these transactions with big heads. Are these transactions thought up by serious people?
Let’s not talk about the latter two, they are all leftover materials exchanged, which does not affect the overall situation.
But the previous ones, what do you think about exchanging Randolph's black and hard years for two veterans who are about to retire? Harrington is good, but isn't it too extravagant to exchange grams of six? , Who will you use for the second team in the future!
It is no wonder that the Knicks, who have huge salary space in later generations, always pass by the stars.
Don't even think about it, pass all of them!
Zuo Li felt that it was necessary to have a talk with the general manager. It doesn't matter if he doesn't make such a deal...
"But who to look for..." This period is considered to be a relatively dull period for NBA transactions. It is far worse than the summer of 07 and the summer of 09. However, scattered transactions have been happening all the time, many of which are not big. So easy to overlook.
That is to say, Zuo Li. In his last life, he made his debut and played games during this period, so he paid close attention to all kinds of transactions and personnel flow.
After thinking for a long time, Zuo Li finally found a feasible solution from a bunch of transactions!
"Thanks to my brain for being as powerful as ever!"
So he excitedly searched for information on the Internet, then rushed to D'Antoni's room, without much beeping, and went straight to the topic: "Coach, I think we can get him!"
D'Antoni was depressed in the room, because this game made him feel the depressed time when he was targeted by the Spurs' iron barrel defense in the Suns. He was thinking about how to pass the Celtics.
As soon as the two chatted and communicated, D'Antoni went to the balcony to call the management, and then the situation in the transfer market began to stir.
After returning, D'Antoni happily told Zuo Li that the management would work hard to do it.
Then Lao Dehai asked Zuo Li enthusiastically, is it possible to beat the Green Army like this?
Not to mention, there really is, but it has to wait until Garnett is injured... But this can't be said to Old Deming.
Before leaving, Zuo Li solemnly patted D'Antoni on the shoulder: "Don't worry, the future is mine!"
D'Antoni looked at Zuo Li's faster and faster pace, and touched his smooth forehead. It was the first time he saw him say this.
But it's right to think about it, Zuo Licai is only 19, isn't this the future!
……
On November 11, the Knicks continued their consecutive away games. This time it was their turn to play Milwaukee against the Bucks.
This is the second time the two teams have played against each other this season, but it is a pity that Bogut, who was taken to the hospital by Zuo Lihuang in the first game, is still on the injury list, so the fans regret that they did not see the rematch between Zuo Li and Bogut.
But in fact, even if there is, it will not be as intense as the first game. After all, Bogut has learned his lesson. As a famous "true man" who bullies the weak and fears the hard, Bogut has long been advocating to be safe, and he didn't mention a word about Zuo Li recently. , It really disappointed the fans who were waiting to watch the show for a while.
And this game was also lackluster. Although Reid still played bravely in this game, he made 15 of 12 shots, 6 of 4 three-pointers, 6 of 5 free throws, and scored 33 points.
However, Zuo Li is really unstoppable in the interior. Without Bogut, he can't even guarantee the most basic height. Zuo Li can be called Longyou Da in the interior.
全场17投15中,罚球8罚5中,拿到35分15篮板6封盖,维兰纽约被左立限制的禁区都进不去,全场只有5分进账。
You would never have guessed that the second scorer is Nate. In this game, Nate scored 33 points in 20 minutes, which is considered a good performance. D’Antoni gave Nate so much playing time for the first time. The outside world guessed whether it was Gotta fix Nate.
But only Zuo Li knew that this was the prelude to the transaction.
Today's Knicks entire team has a taste of storms coming. Everyone knows that the transaction is going on, and whoever stays and whoever leaves, it's just these few days.
And Nate knew in his heart that he could not stay. This is also an old tradition in the NBA. The traded players will give him a chance to perform, and he understands the truth.
Sure enough, on the 23rd, the Wizards played back-to-back away games. The Knicks once again gave Nate 34 minutes of playing time, but Nate did not cherish the opportunity. He made 7 turnovers and only scored 12 points. Fortunately, the Wizards Arenas He and Butler are both on a truce, plus Zuo Li's outstanding performance of 25 points and 12 rebounds, otherwise the Knicks will really overturn in the away game.
But this also has something to do with the Knicks' current team atmosphere.
On the 24th, when the Knicks officially landed in New York, the deal was finally reached!
