Chapter 903 Extraterrestrial Visitors
In the second quarter, Chen Yan continued to play hard. Curry was not suitable to stay on the court for a long time due to his return from injury, so he was put on the bench by the coach.
Knicks coach D'Antoni has set Curry's playing time for about 25 minutes tonight. He does not want Curry to get injured again in the first game after returning from injury.
After listening to Chen Yan's words, Curry has been training his hips for more than half a year. Curry's trainer also agrees with this theory. Curry's ankles are too fragile. If he uses his hips to exert force, he can share the load on the ankles to a certain extent. pressure on.
Due to Curry's efforts, he could only deadlift about 90 kilograms at first, but as the training progressed, he could increase the deadlift to 171 kilograms - and his weight was only 86 kilograms.
This data is extremely exaggerated.
Curry wears an ankle brace in every game. This ankle brace was tailor-made for him by Chen Yan's team. Chen Yan joked with Curry in private that no one knows Curry's feet better than him. If Curry signs his own Studio, then the studio will provide him with a pair of sneakers that 100% fit the ankle and completely fit Curry. At that time, Curry will be able to stay away from injuries.
Curry has been a little interested for a long time. Chen Yan pays him a high salary and can give him signature shoes that are most suitable for his feet. Nike seems not to pay much attention to him. His first choice before was to renew his contract with Nike. , but saw that Nike’s attitude was somewhat shaken.
Nike has too many big brands, including Kobe, James, Durant...
It can be said that except for Chen Yan, the most popular stars are all in Nike, and Curry does not look dazzling in it.
The Lakers let Jamison lead the team in the second quarter. Although Jamison was the starter, he didn't play for long in the first quarter. With Kobe and Garnett, he didn't have many shooting opportunities, and Jamison is that kind of player. The player who needs the ball and the right to take shots is, after all, the most low-key Mr. 50, so it is a good tactical arrangement to let him lead the substitute lineup in the second quarter.
After the Lakers made a wave, only 4 seconds were left. Jody Meeks barely made a three-pointer. The ball missed the mark and was collected by Al Harrington.
Barea took the ball and dribbled it across half court, and Chen Yan stepped inside the three-point line to get the ball.
At the moment of receiving the ball, the Lakers undoubtedly entered a double team.
Chen Yan passed the ball to Al Harrington who ran to the top of the arc, but the latter missed the shot.
Kenyon Martin got an offensive rebound.
Kenyon Martin's playing time has dropped sharply in the new season, but the veteran can still make considerable contributions in the limited time. After David West was injured, his playing opportunities increased.
In front of the TV, Arab League began to lament that if he stayed for one more year, he would have good playing time this year. Kenyon Martin is old and David West is retired. The Knicks power forward position is not as good as before. So crowded.
Kenyon Martin didn't even think twice after getting the ball and went directly to Chen Yan.
Chen Yan paused for a moment outside the three-point line, deceived two people, then suddenly started to speed, and then casually picked the ball with his fingertips.
elegant.
So elegant.
After just one ball, Kobe couldn't sit still.
Kobe could see that the five players on the Lakers' court now couldn't restrain Chen Yan at all, and meeting him was a waste.
Seeing that the boss couldn't sit still, Artest quickly stepped forward and said, "Don't worry, I'll destroy that kid later."
Kobe glanced at him: "No need, I can beat him head-on."
Artest shrugged: "I was joking."
Lakers offensive possession.
Chris Duhon dribbled past half court, and Meeks took the ball and shot directly from mid-range.
Blacksmithing.
"It's so random, there's no strategy at all." Yu Jia smiled and shook his head.
"He thinks of himself as Kobe. It's definitely not possible to play like this." Zhang Liang agreed.
The Lakers' bench lineup couldn't attack well. The only remarkable thing was that they retreated quickly and didn't give the Knicks a chance to make a fast break.
After the Knicks passed halftime, the ball came to Chen Yan again.
Chen Yan dribbles the ball with his left hand and directs his teammates' movements from the top of the arc.
Al Harrington pulled to the bottom corner and Kenyon Martin turned his back for the ball.
Chen Yan immediately passed the ball to the inside.
Kenyon Martin quickly turned around after receiving the ball.
Kenyon Martin's turn wasn't very fast, but the Lakers' Clark didn't react.
By the time he came to his senses, Martin was already in the paint.
Kenyon Martin put both hands to the basket and succeeded.
24:27.
Zhang Lili praised repeatedly: "Kenyon Martin is still a treasure."
Yu Jia smiled: "The turn is very beautiful. If I were two years younger, I would have dunked the ball."
Kenyon Martin can also dunk now, but often it is not necessary. As he gets older, he knows how to protect his body.
Kobe and Garnett have reached the billboard, and they can't sit still, even though they haven't been called up by the head coach.
The Lakers' offense still stumbled in the round. Duhon stuffed the ball inside with 10 seconds left in the attack time. Jamison used his personal ability to force the ball and also caused Al Harrington to foul.
2+1!
Kobe and Garnett both applauded, and the noise that had just been suppressed at the Lakers' home court suddenly rose again.
Jamison made a solid hit with the extra free throw.
24:30.
The Knicks attacked, and Chen Yan was attacked by a double team. Barea wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to do something, but he was too hasty and the breakout was intercepted by Meeks.
The Lakers pushed back and Chen Yan chased Du Hong.
Duhong was a little nervous and almost dropped the ball, but fortunately he secured the ball in the end.
Du Hong is not a fool, he is also a veteran who has played in the NBA for 9 years, but the pressure of Chen Yan, the number one player in the league, is too strong.
After entering the position, Duhon lobbed the ball to Jamison.
Jamison suddenly turned over after continuous sitting strikes!
Difficult to lean back!
The basketball hits the net!
24:32.
Kobe on the sidelines was so excited that he applauded.
Jamison does have two tools on offense.
Chen Yan realized that he could not continue playing like this. He was here to chase points, not to play with the Lakers' substitute players.
Chen Yan passed halftime and Kenyon Martin wanted to pick and roll, but Chen Yan motioned for him to step back.
Kenyon Martin's block against the Lakers will definitely double-team, which is equivalent to creating difficulties for Chen Yan.
Chen Yan took advantage of Meeks' one-on-one defense and passed him by shaking his shoulders and changing direction.
As soon as he reached the free throw line, the other four Lakers surrounded him, and the formation was terrifying.
The most terrifying thing is that these four people are not here to prevent Chen Yan from scoring, they are here to foul Chen Yan.
Four men with fierce looks greeted Chen Yan directly. Chen Yan, who had experienced many battles, rarely saw such a scene and threw the ball casually.
The basketball flew up to the second-floor stands, and the referee's whistle also sounded.
Chen Yan walked to the free throw line angrily. He felt that if he had thrown 0.5 seconds too late, he would have been knocked to the ground.
After two free throws, the score came to 26-32.
The Lakers want to continue to let Jamison play in isolation, which is understandable. Jamison feels hot and is confident in scoring two goals in a row.
However, Chen Yan didn't give him a chance and directly withdrew to double-team him.
Jamison didn't panic and threw the ball beyond the three-point line.
Chen Yan immediately moved back. Meeks felt that he was safe and adjusted before taking action.
The moment he took action, Meeks regretted it. Chen Yan's bullet speed was too fast, and he suddenly appeared in front of Meeks like a visitor from outer space.
"boom!"
Chen Yan directly slapped the ball away.
Meeks' head was buzzing, and he couldn't figure out why the ball was blocked.
Taking advantage of the dead ball opportunity, Kobe and Garnett appeared together, and with the hot-touch Jamison, the Lakers performed extremely fiercely on the offensive end.
The Knicks are still supported independently by Chen Yan. Curry did not come on the court until 4 minutes left in the second quarter. D'Antoni strictly limited his playing time.
At the end of the first half, the Lakers led 61 to 57 by 4 points. Playing at home, they had the upper hand.
