The Rest, Only Noise

Anyone who follows the NBA should have a feeling.

It seems that after the All-Star break, the rookies who stand out always play like star players.

You can often see the words in some teams' season previews describing a future star who is about to enter a second season "Last season, he averaged after the All-Star break ... (significant improvement from the season average) )”.

The same thing happened to Yu Tiancan.

After the holiday, Yu Tiancan, who had been indifferent before, seemed to adapt to the NBA game. He averaged double figures in seven consecutive games, and changed from an occasional potential rookie to the number one backup at the center position.

The New York Times was even more stubborn, and exaggeratedly commented: "Sometimes, Yu's role can even be comparable to Ewing's. When Ewing sits off the court to rest, the coaching staff can rest assured on the inside, because Yu's performance on both ends of the floor is no less than Ewing."

From these comments, you can see how unpopular Ewing is.

How did this guy get his reputation like this?

Anyway, pointing at a rookie who eats dumplings in a row and saying that his role is similar to that of the top three centers in the league?

Louie poured cold water for the first time: "This is why I hate the Times. Except for Dave Anderson, I don't see a conscientious media person in this media."

For Louis, the New York media has always dared to speak out.

Before Louie came to New York, he was at odds with them. After he came to New York, many people predicted that the media in New York would make Louie fail in the Knicks.

The power of public opinion is neither big nor small.

But Louie shut up the media with his excellent results.

There is an extremely unequal relationship between them.

Louie has long had a condescending attitude towards the media.

Same this time.

However, Yu Tiancan's active performance also affected another person.

That was Wang Zhizhi, a Chinese center at Abraham Lincoln High School.

It is also a center from China, also talented, and both are studying at Lincoln High School. Comparing Wang Zhizhi and Yu Tiancan is a routine operation of the media.

The result of the comparison is that Wang Zhizhi clearly wins.

Because Yu Tiancan at the same time was just an unremarkable international student.

Before his height skyrocketed, he was completely out of the media's attention.

On the other hand, Wang Zhizhi is already very strong now.

Although only in the ninth grade, he is the core of Lincoln High School, averaging 16 points, 8 rebounds and 3 blocks per game so far this season.

Some college scouts even compared him to Chicago's Kevin Garnett.

But style-wise, he's more like Philadelphia's Rasheed Wallace.

A ninth-grade center was compared to a super-talented talent in the United States, which Louis could not have imagined before Wang Zhizhi came to the United States.

Now it seems that perhaps it was Wang Zhizhi's previous achievements that made him underestimate the talent of the other party.

Many domestic fans like to compare Wang Zhizhi with the two.

One Scola, one Nowitzki.

It was not uncommon for Wang Zhizhi to log in to the NBA a few years ago and the Mavericks had nothing to do with Dirk Nowitzki before he retired.

Louis believes that Wang Zhizhi may have only realized 30% of his talent, but he should compare it with Dirk Nowitzki.

Blowing also pays attention to the Basic Law.

However, compared with Scola, Louis is very interested.

It is also heavy attack and light defense, Scola is helpless, but Wang Zhizhi is the sword.

When Louis was looking for a CBA template for Zhou Qi, he searched all the players in the history of the CBA league and found that the only player similar to Zhou Qi was Wang Zhizhi.

In Wang Zhizhi's first professional season, he averaged 3 blocks per game, and then it dropped year after year. The Bayi team, which was invincible in the league, made him lose those who kept pushing the limits of self-pursuit like the fat guy in the Blue Association who couldn't play. power.

The most intuitive manifestation is his lowering of self-requirement.

The defensive end was the peak when he debuted, and since then he has been declining on the defensive end year after year. Although his offensive skills are impeccable, how much effort has he spent on these skills?

In the end, the fans saw Wang Zhizhi in the NBA as an ordinary character who attacked and flew kites and defended ATMs.

Those lost, those mistakes, those irreversible depravity can all be made up in this life.

In addition to paying attention to Wang Zhizhi's performance, the focus of Louis's life is still the NBA.

Kevin McHale finally got permission from the team doctor and attending physician to participate in confrontation training and official competition.

The Knicks roster suddenly has 16 players.

Although Wang Mukong and Matt Steigenga played in the G League for a long time and did not occupy positions, but now, for McHale to return, they must cut a player.

The candidate was chosen easily.

Matt Steigenga is the only "parallel importer" that Louie has selected in the 15 years since he entered professional basketball.

The definition of parallel imports does not mean that he is very high in the draft.

Instead, Louie "finally" picked a useless player.

Although it was Zhao Yuanzheng's suggestion to choose him, the decision was made by Louis.

Since the credit for Zhao Yuanzheng's correct suggestions in the past has been credited to Louis's name, if something goes wrong now, it will naturally be borne by Louis.

The Knicks didn't give up Steganga completely because the contract they signed with him was a non-guaranteed contract.

So ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ can terminate the contract at any time.

The Knicks signed him to a developmental contract after his contract with Steganga was terminated.

Because of Louis, the G-League came out ten years ahead of schedule.

In addition to the 15 players on the roster, each team also has 8 development player contract spots and 4 short-term development player contract spots.

These contracts do not count towards the salary cap, but the maximum salary cannot exceed $50,000. When the team encounters a wave of injuries, players from the G-League can be dispatched as an emergency.

Steigenga went to the Knicks' development league team. Whether he can return to the Knicks depends on personal struggle and luck.

The Knicks are in good shape, but the internal problems haven't gone away.

It's just that all the contradictions are cleverly stuck by Louis in a sensitive place that is close to eruption and seems to never be able to erupt.

Winning can suppress internal conflicts to a certain extent.

Then, the Knicks returned to No. 1 in the East.

After 2/3 seasons at the top of the division, the Heat were caught up by the Knicks.

But on March 20, the Knicks will have a rematch with the Blazers, and the Heat's opponent is the Western underdog Timberwolves.

It's not a head-to-head battle, but it's also a battle for the top spot.

The Knicks can continue to top the league only if they beat the Blazers.
