Rebirth of Yidi Legend

Chapter 465 Evolution
Yi Jianlian asked for the ball again, but this time he communicated with Stoudemire in advance and asked him to help get stuck in a position. After receiving the ball, he directly used Stoudemire's wall to get rid of Rudy Gay and succeeded in a three-point jumper from outside the three-point line.

It's really not that Yi Jianlian is bragging because Stoudemire is his teammate. Stoudemire's pick-and-roll ability is not the first in this league, so he can also enter the top three!

"Wow ah ah!"

The scene burst into warm cheers because of Yi Jianlian's three-pointer.

Yi Jianlian's expression didn't change at all. This goal was at most a life-saving goal, but it didn't affect the overall situation of the Knicks in the slightest.

The Knicks are still under pressure from the Grizzlies.

But Yi Jianlian didn't know how to promote the team. With Stoudemire suppressed, the team couldn't find anything else that would make him feel reliable.

Originally, this point could also be him.

But the problem is that Felton is not Mo Williams, he does not have the latter's containment ability nor the latter's tacit understanding with himself.

"Snapped!"

Felton's pass was successfully predicted by Rudy Gay and completed the steal. Yi Jianlian, who was still preparing to signal Felton, had to quickly return to defense.

This is Felton's biggest problem.

His passing ability is also not outstanding.

Especially when encountering a strong team like the Grizzlies, his passing can easily turn into a turnover.

Fortunately, the Knicks returned to defense fairly quickly for this ball, preventing the Grizzlies from launching a fast break.

"Raymond, maybe you need a cup of coffee to refresh yourself? What did you want to do with that pass just now?" D'Antoni yelled at Felton. Felton, who should have been concentrating on the defensive end, was distracted by D'Antoni's words. Attention, Mike Conley took the opportunity to break through and succeeded in picking the basket.

OMG!

D'Antoni put his head in his hands. For Felton, he really didn't know what to say!

"Change!"

"Raymond, come down quickly!"

"This is the worst point guard I've ever seen!"

Because of Felton's poor offensive and defensive performance in this round, the auditorium was full of abuse - the violent New York home fans are about to start again!

It's just that their abuse didn't make Felton have any good performance, but made mistakes one after another.

Hollins is also ruthless enough. Seeing Felton's poor state, he simply directed all his offensive firepower at Felton in the second half of the first quarter, which made the already shaky Felton Performance has slipped a notch.

Didn't see it at all.

D'Antoni wanted to replace him, but looking at the guys on the Knicks' bench, he decided to give Felton some time to adjust slowly.

He can't help it. This is his first year in office, and it's also the first year the Knicks have escaped from the bitter sea. Although they are now on the right track, the impact of the quagmire in the first four years is not Downey's few trades. It can be eliminated. The core players of the Knicks are good now. Even Felton, his usual performance is not so bad, and his ability is still above the average point guard in the league.

But the problem is that apart from these few main players, the rest are either veterans with a basic salary or temporary workers dug from the Development League, or rookies. He doesn't want to use them and dare not use them.

The head coach does not change, and the Knicks can only continue to be in such a downturn. Until the end of the first quarter, Felton did not show any signs of recovery. Because of his downturn, the Knicks scored 19 to 27 in the first quarter. , 8 points behind.

Yi Jianlian scored 9 points and 2 assists in a single quarter, and more than half of the team's scoring in the first quarter was related to him.

This shows that his performance tonight is still no problem.

Felton's 5 turnovers are the main reason why the Knicks are behind. Stoudemire made 6 of 2 shots, which is also one of the reasons why the Knicks were suppressed today.

"Guys, we need to speed up, I mean, we can't be in the ground, we won't have any advantage in this fight, so Raymond, I need you to bring out your good propulsion ability, don't you Should be led by Mike Conley on the opposite side, I want to see the way you have always played in the past!"

During the break during the festival, D'Antoni, who scolded the entire first quarter, was going to change his routine and take a warm route to help Felton get back to his state.

Felton was very moved. As soon as the game went up in the second quarter, he sent another turnover, which made the opponent directly play a fast break.

D'Antoni was so angry that his small eyes narrowed into a line. He lowered his head and patted his forehead, feeling a pain in his head. Isn't this grandson too disappointing?
"Or, I can give it a try and play number one?"

Another time-out, Yi Jianlian finally expressed what he had been thinking for a long time.

"You play number one?"

D'Antoni was taken aback for a moment, then remembered Yi Jianlian's superb ball-handling skills and excellent overall situation view, and subconsciously nodded, "Okay, you can try it!"

D'Antoni decided to try what Yi Jianlian said, let him be the No. [-] position. How to say that sentence, a dead horse is treated as a living horse doctor. Anyway, he can't think of any better way.

The Knicks changed their lineup so quickly. Yi Jianlian took the No. [-] position, Felton was not taken down, but was placed at the No. [-] position, and D’Antoni took the rookie Landry Fields at the No. [-] position. In the third position, apart from Yi Jianlian, he is the only one who is considered reliable.

This is the status quo of the New York Knicks. Their starting lineup is completely the league's first-rate team lineup, but the bench is not even considered the league's second-rate team.

But even so, the team's total salary this year still exceeds the luxury tax.

From this, it can be seen that "Smiling Assassin" Thomas has been the general manager and head coach in New York for the past few years, what kind of misfortune this team has made!
The fourth position took Channing Frye. After all, the second position and the third position have no range.

The 5th position is still Stoudemire.

When the Knicks' new lineup came on the court, the audience was in an uproar:
"Hey, what kind of weird lineup is this? Why are there two small forwards on the field?"

"Why did you let Felton come up! Our backcourt is so bad that we don't even have a replacement for Felton?"

When most Knicks fans saw that Felton was still on the court, they cursed again, but they didn't react until the Knicks served in the backcourt:
"No, no, Yi is a point guard? Damn, Yi is actually a point guard?"

Yi Jianlian was waiting for the ball in the backcourt, and judging from the positions of the Knicks players who had passed on the field, the two remaining players of the Grizzlies who were not matched were Marc Gasol and Mike Conley.

Marc Gasol naturally played against Stoudemire who was serving from the baseline, and Mike Conley... Only Yi Jianlian was left without defense!
"I, I'm fucked" Hollins' mouth twitched, it's not a joke!
