Chapter 46 The hidden danger of the Knicks
After three and a half quarters, the score was 100:103.

With the excellent offense of Larry Hughes, who came off the bench, and the active defense of the entire team, in the half of the fourth quarter, at 13:16, the Knicks won by 3 points!
The last half of the game started.

Once again, Lu Ming and Iguodala fought bayonets on both offensive and defensive ends.

But this time, Lu Ming's teammates stood up.

It greatly relieved his pressure on the offensive end and gradually opened up the lead in the score.

From 3 points to 5 points, and then to 7 points.

On the side of the 76ers, the offensive firepower weakened again. Except for Iguodala who could resist Lu Ming's defense from time to time and struggled to break through and score, other players such as Lu Wei and Thaddeus Young, who felt hot in the first quarter, had completely turned off the fire.

And on the Knicks side.

Gallinari, who had made 12 three-pointers before and hit 7 of them, regained his touch in the final quarter when he didn't feel good in the third quarter. He hit 3 priceless three-pointers with only 2 shots!
Harrington also took up David Lee's playing time. In addition to being 5 of 1 three-pointers and having a bit of a hot eye like Lu Ming, Harrington made 13 of 12 two-pointers. He also used a tough breakthrough to get 7 free throw opportunities and hit 6 of them!
This makes the 76ers' defense seem worthless.

But the strange thing is that the 76ers' defense has always been strong, but it feels the same as the 76ers' offense in the first quarter. If the damn basketball is thrown, it will be damned in!
So in the last half of the fourth quarter, the Knicks kept suppressing the 76ers and always had an advantage in the score.

"Today's game trend is really abnormal."

Yang Yi touched his cheek without any trace, and analyzed the current trend of the game with a smile, "Strictly speaking, Lu Ming's performance today is not good."

Yu Jia hummed, he could naturally see this too.

Yang Yi went on to say, "The Knicks in this game are a bit abnormal. You can look at the shooting percentages of the current top scorers. Gallinari made 15 of 9 three-pointers, and Harrington made 13 of 12 two-pointers. They are amazing! There is also Larry Hughes, who also has a shooting percentage of nearly 60%, and the Knicks' overall shooting percentage is as high as 60.7%!"

"The overall shooting percentage of the 76ers is not low, also 58%!" Yu Jia added.

"Yes."

Yang Yi nodded and continued to analyze the truth he saw from the data, "The shooting percentage of the 76ers is a bit higher, but it is also within the normal range. The Knicks are purely abnormal. You can look at the Knicks' shooting percentage last season, which is less than 40%!

In the game today, the data of three players exploded.They completely made up for the part of the points that Lu Ming didn't get because of Iguodala's defense, and even far exceeded it. "

Speaking of this, Yang Yi suddenly raised his shoulders, "So, we can draw a conclusion that if the current Knicks perform normally, they must not be able to beat the 76ers."

"Lu Ming's score has now reached 21 points. Although it is similar to the score in the previous game against the Bobcats, it is easy to see that in today's game, he struggled in terms of scoring." Yu Jia glanced at Lu Ming's shooting chart. The crosses on it obviously looked more than dots.

The same is true.

20 of 7 overall, 3 of 1 three-pointers, and 6 of 6 free throws. Compared with the previous two games, the shooting percentage is indeed very substandard.

"Yes."

Yang Yi frowned, and said with some reluctance, "The second game against the Bobcats is not a reference, because the opponent is too weak. From the first game against the Heat, to this game against the 76ers, we can see that because of Lu Ming's explosive performance in the first game, the opponent has already begun to study how to defend him. In this game, Iguodala's defense should give them some reference answers."

"There are also factors such as physical strength and energy, which will become hidden dangers for the Knicks in the next game." Yu Jia added two points.

"That's right. Although saying this may make most fans feel uncomfortable and think I'm scaremongering, I have to say that the current Lu Ming needs to strengthen his offensive methods as soon as possible. Otherwise, he will face tough defenses one after another. He may also be greeted by a thick wall of rookies."

Yang Yi looked at Lu Ming, who was still fighting and colliding with Iguodala during the game, thought about it, and gave some suggestions, "If I were D'Antoni, I would send a duo at the beginning of the game to defend Iguodala, the opponent's offensive and defensive core, so that he would not have more energy to defend Lu Ming."

"But obviously, coach D'Antoni did not expect this. It may have been expected, but he was unable to change these." Yu Jia sighed.

Yang Yi also felt that although coach D'Antoni has made a lot of achievements in tactics, he was almost meaningless on the defensive end, or in terms of matchup strategy. He said, "Now the Knicks should solve two problems quickly before other teams have really taken action. One is to ensure that other teammates can be as efficient as today's game. The second is to ensure that these people can't attack and Lu Ming is also targeted. The team still has the strength to compete."

"That's up to the management." Yu Jia was thoughtful.

D'Antoni on the sidelines couldn't hear Yang Yi and Yu Jia's words. He glanced at Lu Ming's stats and found another 10+ assists, which made him very satisfied. He believed that the team's offensive tactics fully reflected his own pre-match tactics.

At this time, the fourth quarter was in the 9th minute.

Lu Ming made the last mid-range shot of the game, temporarily scoring 23 points.

In the 9th and a half minutes, Lu Ming squeezed away Brand, jumped high, and grabbed the 9th rebound of the game.

Only one rebound away from a triple-double!
But this rebound seems a bit difficult to get.

Until the last minute of time, the score of the two sides was 1:110, the Knicks led by 118 points, Lu Ming's assists rose to 8, and the scoring also relied on free throws to add 15 points, but the rebounds were still at 2.

This made everyone anxious.

"One more!" Yu Jia stared at the screen, anxiously running to the scene to help Lu Ming get a seat.

"Oh, at that opportunity just now, as long as Milicic took the initiative and blocked the opponent's center, Lu Ming could grab a rebound!" Yang Yi, who was slapped in the face several times in this game, was also exerting force on his entire face.

"Lu Ming! Lu Ming! Lu Ming!" The audience shouted Lu Ming's name, as if they thought this would make the rebound drop closer to Lu Ming.

The media are already conceiving two manuscripts at the same time.

One is regret, one is congratulations.

Even David Stern, who was watching the game on TV.

"19 years and 236 days, if Lu can do it, I'm afraid this record will last for ten or twenty years!" David Stern turned his head and found that Adam Silver was not by his side, so he could only mutter to himself.

Everyone is looking forward to it, but the 76ers are not looking forward to it.

Obviously they don't want to be the background of Lu Ming's triple-double, and they are doing everything possible to prevent Lu Ming from getting close to the basket, preventing him from completing the feat of winning a triple-double in the third game of his rookie season!
They don't even know that if this triple-double is achieved, it will also be the youngest triple-double record.

In the 58th second, it was the 76ers' offense.

Iguodala once again stood up against Lu Ming's defense toughly, and made a mid-to-long-range shot.However, the high-intensity defense and offense of the audience made his muscles a little stiff, and the arc of his shots was flat, and his strength was also weak.

The basketball hit the front of the rim hard and bounced high!
And the direction is heading towards Lu Ming.

　Last night, I watched the replay of the first game of the finals between the Bucks and the Suns. I felt that neither side actually knew how to defend?Especially the Bucks, they were almost hit by all kinds of targeted singles.The defense is not strong, but he is good at stretching his feet! ! !
