Even reporters can't remember how many records Lian Dao broke.
Lian Dao said: "This is similar to what I imagined for my debut, but I have to thank my teammates for their help. Without them, I would not have had a perfect debut, let alone beat the Heat with a big score."
D'Antoni also looked at Lian Dao with satisfaction at this time. He was very satisfied with this disciple, not only with his court skills, but also with his answers to reporters.
Before, when attending a press conference, he was worried that Lian Dao would be nervous and say the wrong thing. At this time, he also secretly admired Lian Dao's high emotional intelligence.
After the game ended, it also aroused heated discussion across the United States.
"A shocking debut, the best debut in history!"
"40+20+10, Record Reaper!"
Even the New York Times devoted a large space to describing Lian Dao's game.
At this time, Knicks fans were both happy and a little disappointed.
I'm happy that after waiting for so many years, the Knicks finally have hope of rising.
What was disappointing was that the first game was an away game. As Knicks fans, they did not witness this legendary performance with their own eyes.
The most important thing is that the next game will be an away game.
In China, the media also wrote extensively about Lian Dao's performance.
"40+20+10, future NBA star!"
etc.
After the game, Lian Dao received many congratulatory messages when he returned to the hotel.
Among them was Yao Ming. He was very happy that this little brother made such an amazing debut.
There are also friends in their 09 superstar group.
James Harden also expressed congratulations to Lian Dao. At this time, he was still leading a group of substitutes to practice.
Curry expressed his great admiration for Lian Dao's legendary performance in his debut.
DeRozan also has a starting position in the Timberwolves, and his cooperation with Kevin Love also complements each other.
His opening debut was also quite good with a 15+5 performance, which was also very eye-catching.
Originally, he wanted to show off to Lian Dao.
But unexpectedly, just after the game, he received Lian Dao's legendary debut of 40+20+10.
This immediately shocked Demar's jaw.
At the same time, I also expressed my congratulations and envy to Lian Dao for his debut.
He thought that after entering the league, he would surpass Lian Dao in his first match, but he didn't expect that this time he would be completely crushed again.
Among them, only Lian Dao is the true core of a team.
While others were still leveling up, he had already started to beat others, which really hurt their self-confidence.
At this time, O'Neal Jr., who was recuperating in a Miami hospital, saw the media reports and became dizzy with anger.
Looking at Lian Dao's smiling face during the interview, he felt extremely disgusted, as if he was mocking himself through the screen, so the angry O'Neal punched Lian Dao's smiling face on the TV.
"Zi...rub~"
"ah!"
The TV was instantly blown apart by a punch.
Then, O'Neal Jr.'s fist also had a big crack, and the bone was clearly visible.
Blood flew everywhere.
At the same time, there is also a burning smell.
At this time, the doctor on duty also came after hearing the news.
Seeing little O'Neal hurriedly unplugged it from the socket.
Then, he was rushed to the emergency room.
The next day, the Heat received news that O'Neal had suffered a fracture of his phalanx and that parts of his body had been burned by the electric shock. It would take at least 3 months to recover.
When they first heard about the electric shock, the Heat management thought it was O'Neal's personal life that was getting too big.
But after the doctor explained the real reason, he was still stunned. Is Lian Dao the nemesis of O'Neal?
After that, Lian Dao also flew to Charlotte to face the Charlotte Bobcats.
In the end, the Knicks defeated the Charlotte Bobcats 119:102 without any blood.
It is worth mentioning that during the game against Charlotte, Braised Eggs also came to the scene.
But he also left early in the fourth quarter, which was really unbearable. If conditions hadn't allowed him, Lu Dan would have wanted to take off his suit and play directly on the field. He believes that even at the age of 46, he can still do it.
Better than the Bobcat players on the field.
Because, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Charlotte Bobcats were already 30 points behind, and Gerald Wallace simply couldn't prevent Lian Dao's breakthrough.
This time Lian Dao also knocked the defensive lineup built by Larry Brown to pieces.
As a last resort, Larry Brown even used a triple double team.
Lian Dao, who was in good form, faced three double-teams and kept breaking through to the inside to score dunks.
In this game, Lian Dao once again scored a triple-double of 37 points, 13 assists and 11 rebounds.
Gerald Wallace was also guarded by Lian Dao and his shooting percentage was extremely low. He made 2 of 15 shots from the field and only scored 4 points and 5 rebounds.
The Knicks also won two consecutive games to start the new season.
Lian Dao's two triple-doubles also made Knicks fans a little crazy. Now Lian Dao's fans in the Knicks have surpassed David Lee.
Before Lian Dao came, David Lee was the Knicks' most popular player, but now it's Lian Dao!
With the momentum of the first two wins, they also returned to their home court.
The next games are against the 76ers, New Orleans Hornets and Portland Pacers.
Fortunately, there is no strong team in the first five games except the Heat.
In the game against the 76ers, Lian Dao also experienced Yingodala's defense. Although it was very strong, it was still unable to prevent Lian Dao's offense.
The main reason is that Lian Dao's offensive range is too wide, especially when facing the 76ers' two logo three-pointers.
This directly brought the atmosphere of Knicks fans in Madison Square to its peak.
Moreover, Lian Dao is not only accurate in three-pointers, but also has lightning-fast breakthroughs. He also switches between these two offensive methods at will, which can be said to be impossible to guard against.
In this game, the Knicks defeated the 76ers 126:114.
Lian Dao also scored a near-triple-double with 39 points, 14 assists and 8 rebounds.
In the next game, the Knicks also defeated the New Orleans Hornets 112:98.
In this game, Paul was also heavily guarded by Chris Duhon, and David West was constantly double-teamed by Millsap and Lian Dao in this game.
This game also fully demonstrated Chris Duhon's defensive talent. Although Chris Duhon's offense was mediocre, his defense was very good.
The two cores of the Hornets were given special attention, which directly resulted in their offensive firepower being cut off.
On the Knicks' side, Lian Dao completely transformed into a passing master in this game.
Constantly assisting his teammates to score, he also got 26 assists in this game.
This is also the fourth-highest assist in a single game besides Scott Scales and John Stockton.
Because before this, Stockton had reached 27 assists in a single game and 28 assists in a single game. Even with 26 assists in a single game, Lian Dao only tied Stockton's 26 assists in a single game.
Even so, many media still find it incredible, considering that Lian Dao has only played four games.
His era has just begun.
In this game, Lian Dao once again scored a triple-double of 26 points, 28 assists and 13 rebounds.
In the next game against the Invincibles, the Knicks also encountered trouble.
The Knicks had no touch at all and fell behind by 23 points in the first half entering the second half.
After entering the second half, D'Antoni also gave Lian Dao unlimited firing rights.
At the beginning of the second half, Lian Dao also hit three-pointers from the outside one after another, but he still not only shot from the outside until he gradually regained his touch.
Just like the little blacksmith in Los Angeles said: I would rather make 0 for 30 shots than 0 for 9 shots. 0 for 9 shots means that you are defeated by yourself and overwhelmed by the game... The only explanation is,
You have lost confidence in yourself.
Lian Dao, who had regained his touch, also fired continuously from the outside.
Constantly use teammates' screens to shoot three-pointers from the outside.
In the second half, Lian Dao's touch picked up, and the lagging score continued to get closer.
It wasn't until the last two minutes that the Knicks filled the hole dug in the first half.
Most of the players gradually regained their touch, and eventually the Knicks completed a comeback.
107:103.
The Knicks narrowly defeated the visiting Pacers by 4 points.
The most impressive thing about this game is that Lian Dao still did not choose to give up even when he was 23 points behind. Until other members of the Knicks felt better, they also completed a comeback from 23 points behind.
This game also proved the Knicks' strong desire to win. They are no longer the same as before.
