A different point guard path

.......

10 month 6 day.

The New York Knicks training camp begins.

The Knicks left Eddie Curry, Nate Robinson, Jeffries, Tron Rose, Tim Thomas and other fringe players this season.

There are layoffs and deals.

Introduced Brook Lopez (No. 8 pick), DeAndre Jordan (No. 2 in the second round), Goran Dragic (No. 3 in the second round), Tony Allen, pj Tucker, Kyle - Korver, Marc Gasol and other players.

The first three belong to the draft. Tony Allen and Tucker signed as free agents, Korver and Marc Gasol were traded, and Marc Gasol also played in the NBA for the first time.

This is the result of discussions between Knicks general manager Thomas and Lin Rui.

Of course, in the eyes of the outside world, Thomas dragged Lin Rui down again, and he did nothing in the summer.

Introduced four rookies, three role players, and that's it?

These four rookies don't look like super rookies at all.

Three big men who look like role players, and a European point guard.

What about the All-Stars we want?

What helper do we need?

Thomas is actually very difficult to do. Most of the superstars choose to enter the free market next year. There are no big fish in this year's free market. Even if there are big fish, they have already confirmed the team.

Some are unwilling to partner with Lin Rui, and some are unwilling to let players sign with the Knicks because of their own home team.

Everyone knows that getting the Knicks a superstar means winning the championship.

The media and fans continued to abuse Thomas.

Lin Rui comforted Thomas and defended him in front of the media.

Before the start of the training camp, Lin Rui talked about the Knicks' signings when facing reporters: "I know what kind of guys we have introduced, they are all great, and I am looking forward to the new season."

10 month 6 day.

Knicks locker room.

Lin Rui was the last one to appear here.

At this time, the rookies and the Knicks veterans are all there.

I saw Lin Rui appearing.

The newcomers are a little nervous.

Lin Rui is the well-deserved Knicks boss.

There are too many auras surrounding him.

"Hi, hello everyone, long time no see, miss me?" Lin Rui greeted his old teammates with a smile.

"Hey Lin, you're getting big again."

"I watched the Olympic Games, you are so cool."

......

The veterans all stood up and greeted Lin Rui one by one.

The Knicks' rookies have just gotten acquainted with the veterans, and now they are even more nervous when they see the dog-licking behavior of these veterans.

Fortunately, Lin Rui has no airs.

Under the introduction of David Lee, all the new players gave Lin Rui high fives and hugged each other.

After a while, the head coach also came in.

Mike D'Antoni!

D'Antoni is the coach recommended by Coach Thomas and a group of executives to the boss after Lin Rui agreed.

Mike D'Antoni was selected by the Kansas City Omaha Kings at No. 1973 in the second round of the 2 NBA Draft (selected by the Kansas City Omaha Kings and the San Antonio Spurs during the NBA period, and played for the St. Louis Soul Team during the ABA period. In 20 joined the Italy Milan Olympia team.

In the Milan Olympia team, Mike D'Antoni is full of honors. He has won the league championship many times and has been elected as the scoring champion and assists champion many times.

In 1990, Mike D'Antoni was elected as the best defender in the Italian league. In the same year, he officially announced his retirement. His style of play influenced the subsequent NBA superstar, Kobe Bryant, who was a child at the time and watched football in Italy.

After retiring, Mike D'Antoni once served as the head coach of the Phoenix Suns in the NBA. He has led the team since 2003. He won the honor of the best coach in the NBA in the 2004-05 season and led the team to win the regular season. 62 wins and 20 losses and reached the Western Conference Finals.

D'Antoni's label style of coaching is clear.

"Run and bomb tactics!" "Good at coaching point guards!"

Lin Rui has been in communication since he learned that he became the head coach of the Knicks.

The reason why D'Antoni is willing to coach the Knicks is Lin Rui besides the market factors here.

D'Antoni created a set of "magic ball" system for Lin Rui!

.......

D'Antoni is also a very kind head coach.

The overall vibe in the locker room is great.

In this regard, the Knicks core lineup also came out.

Point guard: Lin Rui, Dragic

Shooting guards: Crawford, Tony Allen.

Small forwards: Richardson, Korver.

Power forwards: Randolph, David Lee, Tucker.

Centers: Robin Lopez, Marc Gasol, DeAndre Jordan.

The Knicks' core lineup temporarily determines these 12 people, and the other 3 people are reserved for rookies who performed well in training camp and preseason during this period.

..........

"Brooke, you go get some fried chicken."

"DeAndre, go buy milk tea."

"Golan, go and fetch our bags."

The veterans of the Knicks wantonly taught the rookies NBA culture.

They didn't dare to bully Lin Rui last season, so they have to bully these rookies.

Seeing his teammates making trouble together, Lin Rui also smiled.

Lin Rui seldom interferes with these things, he is relatively independent.

Lin Rui's mature psychology makes him not like the mentality of ordinary young people.

This is also the reason why Lin Rui can chat with many veterans.

Lin Rui also made friends with many veteran superstars in the league.

On the training ground.

Lin Rui ignored the interference from the sidelines.

Concentrating on practicing his three-pointers.

5 points.

10 three-pointers, all hit!

Finally, there are three points for the logo!

10 out of 9! !

Lin Rui's three-point shooting rate stunned all the rookies.

Korver sighed: "God, does he always shoot like this?"

Tucker said: "This is too accurate."

Randolph didn't answer the exclamation of the two, but Richardson said: "This is his daily routine, and you will get used to it gradually."

Lin Rui's consecutive three-pointers as soon as he arrived on the training ground put a lot of pressure on this group of rookies.

"Boss, can you tell me how you shoot three-pointers?" Tony Allen asked.

When Tony Allen was with the Celtics last season, he was often beaten by Lin Rui.

Lin Rui said, "That's it, that's it, that's it! It's very simple."

Lin Rui made a demonstration...

Everyone: "???"

what?

what?

After Lin Rui finished his demonstration, he shrugged helplessly when he saw that everyone was still dumbfounded.

David Lee said: "This is Lin's talent, and no one can learn it."

"Ok!"

"Okay, got it."

It seems that the veterans should not be able to do what Lin Rui did, and the newcomers are a little less stressed.

indeed.

Lin Rui's three-pointer became a phenomenal three-pointer after last season.

More and more players began to practice ultra-long three-pointers, but after practicing, the shooters found that it was not easy to practice like Lin Rui.

This requires very strong talent.

after training.

Lin Rui was taken to the side by Tucker, and Tucker asked: "Lin, can you give me some sneakers? Many of my friends asked me after I joined the Knicks, but I couldn't buy them. Hey, your shoes are good. Hard to buy."

Lin Rui's sneakers can only be picked up after three months of pre-sale.

Lin Rui said, "No problem, how much do you want?"

Tucker said, "10 pairs, and I'll pay you."

Lin Rui shook his head and said, "No need, I have two trucks and I can't finish them all. I'll bring them to you tomorrow."

Tucker nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you a pair of Jordans."

"Okay!"

Lin Rui chatted with Tucker for a while, and Lin Rui discovered that Tucker is actually a sneaker collector.

He has several rooms dedicated to storing sneakers, and the cost of buying sneakers is more than he spent on buying a house.

...

...

After the training camp officially started.

Lin Rui is also running in with the brand new team.

With his performance on the training ground, Lin Rui conquered all newcomers.

Lin Rui is still the core point of all tactics for the Knicks in the new season.

Season preview meetings, photo shoots, etc. are also in full swing.

After a period of training, the Knicks ushered in their first preseason game.

Host the New Jersey Nets.

The boss of the Nets is Carter, and the UAE is also there, so there are many things to watch in this game.

Many Chinese in New York bought tickets to watch the game.

February 10, 17pm.

The Knicks started their first preseason game with the Nets.

Lin Rui was cheered by the fans at the appearance ceremony.

New York fans haven't seen Lin Rui for too long.

All fans hope that Lin Rui can lead the Knicks to make a comeback.

Knicks starters: Lin Rui, Crawford, Richardson, Randolph, David Lee.

This is the Knicks' starting lineup that made it to the Finals last season.

The regular season is not necessarily the starting lineup of this lineup, and it has been constantly changing.

Nets starting: Harris, Carter, Bobby Simmons, UAE, Sean Williams.

It is the first time for UAE to come to a new environment, and it can be seen that the head coach also attaches great importance to him.

Lin Rui went over to give Ah Lian a hug.

Soon, the game started.

Ah Lian and David Lee jumped up at the same time.

The UAE was very active and allocated the ball to Harris.

Lin Rui went up to mark Harris.

There is one characteristic of Harris that makes Lin Rui very afraid, that is, fast!

Harris has the top speed with the ball. When he runs, it is like a gust of wind.

Harris didn't dare to be careless when he dribbled the ball across the half.

Now Lin Rui has long been famous all over the world. Although he failed in the finals and the Olympic gold medal competition, no one will deny his strength!

Although he was afraid of Lin Rui, Harris was eager to challenge and defeat Lin Rui.

After Harris dribbled to the frontcourt, he immediately called for the cover of the UAE.

Ah Lian is very familiar with Lin Rui, so he blocked him, and Harris dribbled laterally.

Lin Rui bypassed the UAE to put pressure on Harris, and Harris gave the ball to Carter on the right.

Carter handled the ball a little casually in the face of the preseason. After a tentative step, Carter broke through Crawford and then pulled up a mid-range jumper.

The rhythm of the ball is great, but!

"frame!"

The basketball bounced off the rim and Randolph grabbed the rebound.

Randolph gave the ball to Lin Rui.

Lin Rui pushed forward with the ball, and the fans immediately shouted! !

Both the experience of last season and the Olympics are enough to make fans have infinite fantasies about Lin Rui.

Although it was the first preseason game of the new season, Lin Rui no longer had the same nervousness as last season.

Lin Rui gave the ball to Randolph in the low post.

Randolph singles Shawn Williams.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Randolph also became famous in the first battle last season. He is known as Lin Rui's best helper.

Randolph, who came back from vacation, was a bit fat. Sean Williams was not going well in singles, and Lin Rui made a timely cut.

Harris was a little defensive in the face of Lin Rui.

Inattention on the defensive end is also what limits Harris' further growth.

Lin Rui easily broke through the Nets' defense.

Randolph gave the ball to Lin Rui who made an empty cut.

After receiving the ball, Lin Rui took off into the air, his head was completely over the frame, and he grabbed the ball with both hands and smashed the dunk! !

"frame!!"

0:2.

Lin Rui's dunk was too easy!

"pretty!!"

"Cooperate well."

"Lin Rui's ability to move without the ball has improved again."

"Oh, it's a slam dunk!"

The fans at the scene cheered.

When Randolph clapped hands with Lin Rui, he said, "Lin, your bounce has improved again."

Lin Rui smiled and said, "Almost, you're getting fat again."

Lin Rui patted Randolph's belly after he clapped his hands.

Randolph said in embarrassment: "It will gradually decrease."

Randolph is not a player who trains hard. He usually gradually completes his state adjustment after the start of the season, which is why he has not been liked by the media.

Randolph has talent, but he's a little too lazy.

Nets attack.

Harris slowly brought the ball across half court.

Lin Rui continued to put pressure on Harris.

Although Harris was a little wary, Lin Rui still caught the opportunity.

Lin Rui waved from the left, allowing Harris to dribble the ball to the right, and then Lin Rui exploded directly to the right.

"Snapped!"

Lin Rui broke Harris's ball one-on-one.

Whoa whoa! !

Seeing Lin Rui steal the ball directly, the Knicks rookies' eyes widened.

One-on-one to break the opponent's defender, this kind of ball is too ruthless.

Harris did not catch up with Lin Rui.

Lin Rui sprinted to the front court, and stepped to collect the ball from beyond the three-point line, one step, two steps!

Take off into the air, jump high, grab the ball with one hand and swing it in a big loop, and at the same time, the body completes a 360-degree rotation and smashes into the basket! ! !

"frame!!"

With ease, with ease! !

0 to 4! !

After Lin Rui did this, the cameras on the scene kept focusing on Carter!

Obviously, the cameraman wanted Carter and Lin Rui to compare dunks on the court! !

Lin Rui also smiled at Carter, and Carter spread his hands.

Lin Rui showed super attack power and desire to attack at the beginning of the game.

Nets attack.

Harris paid more attention this time, and he gave the ball to Carter.

Carter also got serious at this time.

Carter faced Crawford with a feint on the outside.

Still choose a three-pointer with a retreat.

Carter's three-point shooting rate is the first among the four shooting guards. He is also very dependent on three-pointers, but his three-pointers are not as famous as his dunks.

"frame!"

It's a pity that Carter didn't feel very good in the first two offenses.

Lin Rui grabbed the defensive rebound.

Turn around and dribble forward.

As soon as halftime passed, Lin Rui made a hasty change of direction and shook Harris away!

Immediately after the logo three-point shot quickly! !

The fans at the scene all exclaimed! !

The basketball thrown by Lin Rui was like an arrow piercing the clouds!

"Shhh!!"

0:7.
