Popr rmendation:
On November 23, the Knicks yed against the Charlotte Bobcats at home. After two days of rest, the physical fitness of the Knicks yers has basically recovered.
Last season, the Bobcats broke into the yoffs for the first time with 44 wins and 38 losses. Unfortunately, they were swept out by the Cavaliers 4:0 in the first round. ording to the team''s development trend, this season''s Bobcats should make persistent efforts. Breaking into the top eight in the Eastern Conference should be the beginning of their rise, but this is not the case.
In the team strength ranking released by ESPN before the start of the season, the Bobcats rankedst among the 30 teams in the league.
ESPN also gave an exnation for this. First of all, they traded Alexis Akinsa and Tyson Chandler to the Das Mavericks in exchange for Matt Carroll, Eric · Dampier, Eduardo Najera and Cash.
You must know that the reason why they made the yoffsst season was that Tyson Chandler yed a very important role in the inside, especially on the defensive end. Tyson Chandler is the inside Optimus Prime of the Bobcats, but they The hero who helped them reach the yoffs was traded away in exchange for a bunch of leftovers. It was really a 100 bill for three pieces of change, and the sum of these changes was found to be less than 100.
And Tyson Chandler, who was traded to the Mavericks, haspletely be the Mavericks inside Optimus Prime. The arrival of Tyson Chandler has alsopletely made up for thest shoring of the Mavericks inside. Recently, their record is also in full swing. After beating opponents one after another and winning five consecutive victories, the Western Conference powerhouses such as the Spurs and Heat fell under the Mavericks'' hooves.
Bobcats fans: We want to give Dampier back to you, can you see it? !
Then there is Larry Brown, the head coach of the Bobcats. Although Larry Brown is a champion coach, he has his own set of standards for employing people. Nor will he be given ying time.
On the contrary, as long as he encounters yers who agree with his standards, Larry Brown can maximize the strength of these people. The Pistons'' five civilian tigers are created by Larry Brown.
However, Larry Brown''s cultivation of rookies is not very good. He doesn''t like to use rookies in many cases, so rookies will not have much ying time in his hands, such as Darko Milicic who was destroyed by him. .
Although the Bobcats have greatly improved on the defensive end under the guidance of Larry Brown, their performance on the offensive end has been unsatisfactory. Coupled with their mysterious operation in the off-season, and the record of 5 wins and 8 losses in the new season, it is not without reason that the Bobcats'' strength ranking is backward.
The Knicks still y the same way at home, and the upgrade of the Knicks'' defense makes it even more difficult for the Bobcats, who are not good at offense, to score. On the defensive end, the Bobcats, who lost the inside defensive gate Tyson Chandler, could not resist thebined impact of the Knicks inside and outside with only the top picks Kwame Brown and Boris Diaw.
The Bobcatssted only half of the game at Madison Square Garden before copsing across the board. Gerald Wace, the core offensive core of the Bobcats, was defended by Lian Dao with only 9 points and 3 rebounds. Stoudemire and Millsap took turns to take care of him. Kwame Brown, the No. 1 pick handpicked by Jordan, was educated by Cousins, a rookie, who was overwhelmed by talent.
The two teams yed in the second half, and the Bobcats'' defense was full of gaps. Many people couldn''t believe that this would be the Charlotte Bobcats who defended hardst season. It can only be said that this year''s Bobcats arepletely useless.

He also scored 30 points and 18 rebounds on the heads of these two.

And then the Knicks shot crazy from outside. In the fourth quarter, the Knicks team made 10 of 15 three-pointers, and the shooting rate exceeded 60%. It was this wave of three-point rain thatpletely gave the Charlotte Bobcats The failure nailed the coffin.
Fans in the Time Warner Center arena have been staring nkly at the dejected Bobcats yers on the field. The eyes of the Bobcats fans were full of disappointment. Some fans even booed the home team. They couldn''t believe it was still Did the Bobcats have a solid defensest season?

Lian Dao still apportioned the credit to everyone, and then he said: "I never thought that we would start the season. To achieve 16 consecutive victories, you know, when I got the season match list, my heart was broken!"
"Can you imagine 7 back-to-back games in 19 games? Oh, to be honest, my first feeling at the time was that as long as we can maintain half of the winning percentage, we will be sessful. If we maintain a 2/3 winning percentage, we will be sessful." It’s already great, but when we tried our best to y every game well, we suddenly found that we had unknowingly walked in the forefront of the league.”
