Chapter 895 Opening Strategy

Joking aside, everyone knows the value of four double-doubles in two consecutive games.

The media has already blown Chen Yan to the sky. The most important thing is that this data is actually produced by Chen Yan, without any moisture.

Many players' high scores or triple-doubles cannot withstand scrutiny and are more or less false. This will also become a point of attack by fans and the media in the future.

Chen Yan had two consecutive four-doubles and couldn't even find an angle. His die-hard fans have begun to say they are looking forward to Chen Yan's first five-doubles, which is very arrogant. However, Chen Yan's fans have the capital to be arrogant. Chen Yan has become more and more arrogant in recent years. Never let the fans down.

In the last game of November, the Knicks' opponent was the Wizards.

The Wizards had a previous record of 1 win and 12 losses. No one doubted that the Knicks would win this game. What fans were looking forward to was whether Chen Yan could score a quadruple-double in three consecutive games.

本场比赛尼克斯109比87轻取尼克斯，陈炎的全场数据为28分9助攻5篮板3抢断。

Chen Yan didn't get a quadruple-double tonight, or even a triple-double. The Wizards collapsed too quickly tonight.

Chen Yan was undoubtedly elected as the best player in the Eastern Conference in November. The statistics of James and Durant were also very good, but they dimmed a lot in front of Chen Yan.

With two consecutive quadruple-doubles, even the judges who hate Chen Yan would find it difficult to vote for others without conscience.

The Knicks have been making rapid progress since the start of the season. D'Antoni's only worry now is the team's injuries. If the team's lineup continues to be this healthy, it is difficult for D'Antoni to imagine any team that can stop the Knicks.

However, the more I feared, the more something happened. On December 12, during the home game against the Suns, David West was injured.

David West accidentally stepped on Gortat's instep while shooting and sprained it when he landed.

David West fell to the ground in pain and was eventually taken off the field on a stretcher.

At first, everyone thought it was just a common sprain, but when the MRI results came out, everyone was shocked. The results showed that there was ligament damage inside the right foot, and David West was reimbursed for the season.

This news is like a bolt from the blue for the Knicks. David West is the core of the Knicks. His absence means that Chen Yan will take on more responsibilities on both offense and defense.

After David West was injured, D'Antoni began to have a headache. Should he let Barnes or Al Harrington replace David West in a small lineup, or let veteran Kenyon Martin How about strengthening the protection of the basket and rebounds?

On December 12, in the game against the Bobcats, D'Antoni still chose to use a small lineup, and he put his old team Barnes into the starting lineup.

This adjustment worked well, and the Knicks defeated the Bobcats in less than three quarters.

Boozer started retirement mode after joining the Bobcats with a high salary. In this game, he still fished, scoring 12 points and 7 rebounds.

Jordan once again proved to the world that as a player, his talent is unique, and as a boss, his vision is also unique. Few bosses can make mistakes so many times in a row.

Jordan may have anticipated the outcome of the game, and did not appear on the sidelines to watch the game at all.

Finally won the game 111-88.

On December 12, the Knicks played the Heat again in back-to-back games.

Curry fell to the ground after an aerial confrontation at 5 minutes and 47 seconds of the second quarter.

Slow-motion replay shows that Curry stepped on Chalmers' ankle when he landed.

D'Antoni's face was ashen. It's true that blessings and misfortunes never come singly. If Curry is also reimbursed, it will be difficult for the Knicks to compete for the championship this year.

The Heat led by 5 points at halftime.

Chen Yan started to play C-mode in the second half, but it was difficult for him to beat four hands with two fists. After scoring 67 points in vain, the Knicks lost the game and ended their winning streak.

James said after the game: "It was a difficult game. Chen's performance was as wonderful as ever. However, our whole team played very hard and won the final victory of the game. At the same time, I also love to pray for Stephen and hope that he will be okay."

In training the next day, Beverley was extremely active. Curry's absence gave him a chance to compete for the starting spot.

Every player has selfish motives.

The NBA is a cruel animal world, and all players are trying their best to survive in this ecosystem.

One day later, Curry's test report came out. He had sprained his ankle and was out for a week.

The Knicks breathed a sigh of relief. If Curry and David West were reimbursed, then the Knicks would not have to play this year. All opponents would definitely have Chen Yan double-teamed by many people.

One day later, the Knicks went to play the Bulls on the road.

The Bulls have a well-organized lineup, and they are bound to win this battle.

In the locker room, Westbrook was doing pre-war mobilization as if he had been given blood.

"The opponent is missing two main players, but we can't show mercy. Kill the Knicks! Kill the No. 1 player in the Eastern Conference. This is our goal tonight!"

Curry and David West are both injured, and the Knicks have made a lot of changes in the starting lineup.

Point guard Beverley, shooting guard Chen Yan, small forward Shane Battier, power forward Al Harrington, and center DeAndre Jordan.

Beverley got his wish to start tonight, and D'Antoni wanted to use his mad dog attributes to restrict Westbrook.

Bulls starting five: Westbrook, Jimmy Butler, Luol Deng, Taj Gibson, Asik

Even if the Knicks are missing two starters, the lineup still looks more luxurious than the Bulls.

Except for Westbrook and Luol Deng, the Bulls have no one who can play. Jimmy Butler has not grown up at this period and is just a little transparent averaging 8 points per game.

Jimmy Butler is very ambitious. He has never regarded himself as a little transparent. He believes that as long as he works hard enough, he will one day make a name for himself.

In the first defense, Jimmy Butler successfully interfered with Chen Yan's shooting.

Chen Yan smiled as he returned to defense and said, "The defense was good."

Butler didn't reply, all his attention was focused on the game.

The Bulls were swept by the Knicks last season. Chen Yan taught Jimmy Butler a hard lesson. He practiced hard all summer in order to prove himself when he met Chen Yan again.

In the next round of offense, Jimmy Butler attacked with the ball, very determined!

Chen Yan did not fall behind and blocked his offensive line.

Jimmy Butler played very hard and forced a start against Chen Yan.

After breaking into the crowd, Jimmy Butler turned back to score the ball.

Westbrook caught the ball at the top of the arc and hit a three-pointer!

"Shh!"

The United Arena was filled with cheers, and the Bulls led 3-0.

Chen Yan touched his chest. Butler, this boy, was indeed a bit like a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. He almost pushed himself out and suffered internal injuries.

Knicks offensive possession.

Chen Yan reached for the ball at the elbow area.

Jimmy Butler tops the defense.

Jimmy Butler lowered his frame and was ready to fight Chen Yan.

Chen Yan didn't want to hit him from behind at all.

After receiving the ball, he quickly turned and walked to the right.

After two fierce steps, he turned again. After collecting the ball, Chen Yan took off, leaned back, and shot!

All in one go.

Jimmy Butler was a little stunned by Chen Yan's footwork this round. He took off half a beat slower and could only watch the ball hit the net.

2:3.

The fans laughed and joked that Chen Yan's back kick was a bit redundant.

Bulls offense.

Westbrook got the ball in the backcourt and rushed directly!

Very barbaric!

Beverly knew not to let this kid rush up, so he did something wrong when Westbrook started to speed up, and pushed Westbrook's bottom plate very covertly.

After Westbrook fell to the ground, he quickly got up and directly stood up to angrily attack Beverley.

The two started squirting at each other.

The referee quickly came up and separated the two people. After the small episode, the game continued.

Westbrook caught the ball from the sideline, Asik came up to pick and roll, and Westbrook waved him away.

Westbrook stared at Beverly fiercely, as if he wanted to eat him.

Beverley smiled slightly, and his strategy of irritating Westbrook at the beginning seemed to be successful.
