Chapter 227 Those who work hard will be more favored by God
"Zhu, believe me, this will definitely not be our end. We will go further. We want everyone to know, even the rookies are crazy!" Lian Dao shouted loudly.
"I believe in you, and I'm very happy to play with you," Holiday said.
After entering the NBA, because the 76ers had Lou Williams, Holiday did not have many opportunities to play at first.
Moreover, Holiday was not happy with the 76ers. As a rookie, Holiday had to prepare more than 150 condoms in his backpack at all times. Is this because he needed it?
It was the old guys from the 76ers who deliberately played tricks on him and asked him to be on call at all times. Lou Williams, who was in the same position, was the most egregious, deliberately making Holiday run several times for one incident.
At that time, when he heard that he was traded to the Knicks, although he was worried in his heart, apart from the worry, he was also a little bit happy that he finally got rid of the chaotic 76ers.
This is why the Knicks can pick up the slack.
As two people who have known each other since college, Lian Dao and Holiday have a very good relationship in private.
Since coming to the Knicks, Holiday's performance has been good.
And since Holiday came to the Knicks, Lian Dao has met Holiday every time he practices, sometimes even later than him.
Whether he was stimulated by Lian Dao's progress or for other reasons, his efforts in basketball were noticed by many people.
When he started as the starter when Chris Duhon was injured and performed brilliantly, Lian Dao knew that this kid's starting position was secure.
Holiday plays very selflessly. He rarely takes up the ball and is often willing to be the organizer on the court. When Lian Dao takes over the organizational power, he will also actively run.
I believe there are not many team cores who wouldn’t like this kind of player.
Holiday's scenes rarely show excitement, but after so many games, many coaches and professionals can see Holiday's potential.
There is a huge contrast between Holiday and Lian Dao.
Lian Dao's play is very cool and more explosive, while Holiday's play style is very simple and willing to concentrate on defense.
Since Holiday came to the Knicks, he knew that the team's offense did not require him to worry too much, so he focused more on perimeter defense.
Especially this season, the steel defense line he and Lian Dao built on the outside has caused all the teams in the league to suffer.
"Well, our era has just begun!" Lian Dao said with a smile.
Holiday smiled and nodded. He believed what Lian Dao said because he felt infinite charm in Lian Dao.
When he was in college, no one would have thought that Lian Dao would lead the University of Southern California, which had no achievements in the field of NCAA basketball, to win the championship. But he did it. He won the first place in history for the University of Southern California.
championship trophy.
Until now, Lian Dao's No. 1 jersey hangs in the most conspicuous position of the Galen Center.
…
"Lian Dao's physical talent is definitely top-notch in the NBA. Not only does he have a physical quality that some black people don't have, but he also has a very soft shooting touch. Especially in the first round of the playoffs, he has developed a mid-range shot.
A fadeaway jumper from a distance means that he is still improving. Those who work hard will be more favored by God!"
"In his rookie season, he led the team into the playoffs and averaged a triple-double in the first round. He even scored 60+ in one game and 40+ in two games. This is compared to Michael Jordan back then. Favorably!"
The next day, when Lian Dao got up and turned on the TV, he saw a program telling his story!
The show also constantly inserts exciting moments from Lian Dao and the playoffs.
Since the start of the playoffs, Lian Dao's popularity in New York has risen to another level.
Now basically whenever Lian Dao walks on the street, it can be said to be known to everyone!
Sometimes even a thick disguise can't hide a tall figure and yellow skin.
Basically whenever I go out I will be recognized.
Due to the increase in fame, many people invited Lian Dao to attend some business dinners, charity dinners and the like through his master Guo Nianguo. At first, because of his master, Lian Dao would also attend with his young sister. In the end, Lian Dao besides Apart from charity dinners, other business banquets have been completely abandoned.
Lian Dao didn't think that he would dominate Shanghai. Although he was a reborn person, professional matters still had to be left to professionals, so Lian Dao only provided some business information and grasped some general directions, and left the rest to his junior sister. .
Since the end of G3, my mother came to the United States. The mother and son stayed for a quick day, and then my mother rushed the little senior sister to Los Angeles to help her deal with some things.
Moreover, he was so mysterious that he didn't tell Lian Dao.
Therefore, although Lian Dao was resting, he was alone, and he didn't know what to do during his rest, so he approached the team's staff and asked for the Magic's game videos to watch the Magic's playoff games at home. Video.
In addition to watching game videos, in his spare time, Lian Dao also plays Dota and League of Legends, which was launched in the US server by Riot Games on April 10 last year. Although it was only launched for a year, League of Legends is in North America. The influence is already very large.
Many players who play Dota have switched to League of Legends, and its reputation in online games is also very good.
Of course, while playing games, Lian Dao did not forget to ask his junior sister to acquire some game companies. Lian Dao provided creative ideas and developed some online games that will be popular in the future, such as PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and some mobile online games.
In the future, Lian Dao clearly knows that mobile games have the widest coverage of players. This is a piece of fat meat. Now that he has come back, there is no reason not to get a share of it.
…
The one-day holiday ended quickly, and Lian Dao returned to the team's preparations.
The Magic and the Heat have not yet decided the winner. The Magic lost the game after returning to their home court. The Magic currently lead 3:2.
Lian Dao also didn't expect that the Miami Heat were so strong that they could win back a victory after returning to the away game.
It's very interesting. After the training, Lian Dao, the team coach and all his teammates watched the game video repeatedly.
In the final analysis, the problem still lies with Howard.
After the Magic had problems with their outside shooting, Howard fell into a quagmire of singles, but Master Huo's offensive skills were really not very good.
Under the Heat's repeated double-teaming, Howard kept making mistakes and was eventually taken away from the game by the Heat.
"The game between the Magic and the Heat was very tense. After the Magic won the Battle of Tianwangshan, they did not quickly solve the Heat, but this does not mean that the Magic is weak. On the contrary, the Magic lost the two games.
, their point difference is not more than 5 points, and whenever the Magic win, it is always with a big score."
"This means that the Magic's overall strength is stronger than the Heat. As long as they find their own offensive rhythm in the next game, it will not be a big problem to defeat the Heat."
After watching all the videos, D'Antoni also introduced it to all the players.
Moreover, Howard's statistics are also shown, averaging 21 points and 13.3 rebounds per game. In terms of dominance in the interior, no one in the league can match him.
The Knicks have played against the Magic in the regular season, and the Knicks only won one of the four regular season games, and lost to the Magic in the other three games. Everyone in the Knicks clearly knows how terrifying Howard is.
Now Howard, neither David Lee nor Millsap can defend him alone.
Another point is that the Magic reached the league finals last season, which means that this team has deep playoff experience. They are far ahead of the Knicks in this regard, especially in the third round.
In the second round, the Knicks didn’t know what tactics the opponent would come up with!
D'Antoni saw that the atmosphere in the team was very dignified at this time, which made him nod with satisfaction. After sweeping his opponents in the first round, what D'Antoni was most worried about was the arrogance rising in the hearts of the Knicks players, but now it seems that they
The performance is very good.
So he continued: "Although Howard is very destructive inside, it doesn't mean that we can't defeat the Magic. Sickle, if the opponent in the next round is the Magic, I hope you will cause trouble to Howard on the offensive end. It's best."
Hit Howard more often and draw fouls."
"As long as Howard is solved, we can win the Magic."
"If the opponent is the Heat..."
D'Antoni analyzed the characteristics of the two teams in detail with the coaching staff and initially formulated a combat plan.
