Chapter 133 The Role of Li Hai
Li Hai scored a three-pointer on the court, helping the Knicks to overtake the score.
The kings are now mainly Mike Bibby and Kevin Martin who are extremely active. Mike Bibby has excellent passing ability and can attack by himself. Together with Kevin Martin, who is good at running, they are very threatening .
As for the King's Princeton system, if the team does not have excellent defense players, it will be very uncomfortable to defend. This is why Li Hai appeared at the 4th position.
Eddie Curry has no ability to assist in defense, but Li Hai's ability to assist in defense is excellent.
"Kevin Martin cuts to the rim, Bibby's pass arrives as expected..."
"It's Li Hai again. Li Hai is really too flexible. If he was a real inside player just now, it would be difficult to turn around so quickly, but it's just a trivial matter to Li Hai. The Kings' offense was destroyed by Li Hai again. Kevin Martin Got a solid big hat."
"Li Haizheng received the ball with his back. He tricked Kenny Thomas with a pass fake and turned around to the baseline. Brad Miller had no choice but to foul."
"Time is running out, Bibby made a three-pointer, and Li Hai made another mid-range shot."
At the last moment, Bibby and Martin missed three points, and the Knicks beat their opponents 102:98.
On January 1th, the Knicks played at home against the Magic, which had a slightly different style of play.
This season, the Magic have fully established a team-building strategy with Dwight Howard as the core. Steve Francis, a three-time All-Star player who has been a short-term core, is getting more and more awkward in the team's position because the team feels that Jameel - Nelson and Howard are more suitable, and Francis has changed from a core guard to a shooting guard.
During this period of time, there were rumors about the trade of Francis. In order to stabilize his heart, and Nelson was injured, Francis became a core defender again. It was only repeated several times, which made Francis very uncomfortable and his data dropped sharply.
At the beginning of the game, both sides played inside first, and met Howard again. Eddie Curry was in good form this time, and he played several good shots in a row in the offense.
Li Hai also has an advantage over Hedo Turkoglu. Although Turkoglu has a height advantage, his strength and speed are not as good as Li Hai, and he is at a disadvantage in both offense and defense.
On the back line, Marbury is at a disadvantage. His physical condition has not fully recovered after the injury. Although he is very strong, he can see the gap in the game.
But after Crawford continued to score after he came on the court, the Knicks' advantage was reflected.
Except for Francis, the other teams of the Magic were unable to score smoothly. Francis' current style of play was indeed a bit out of tune with this team. As a result, after halftime, the Knicks led by 20 points.
Although their record is good, such a large lead has not happened for a long time.
During the intermission, everyone was extremely relaxed.
If Howard can't play well, the Knicks won't care about a team like the Magic.
However, what I didn't expect was that shortly after the start of the second half, Li Hai encountered an accident.
When he was rushing to grab the frontcourt, Howard, who fell too far behind and was a bit anxious, elbowed him on the face. The opponent didn't mean it, but the huge force directly made Li Haiping fall from the air.
It's just that it might be nothing if he fell down, it's a matter of resting for a while after being hit, Li Hai also has a body like an animal, the bad thing is that he subconsciously supported it with his hands.
As a result, apart from a slight concussion, Li Hai also injured his fingers and had to leave the arena early.
After Li Hai left the field, the Magic launched a massive counterattack. In the end, the Knicks were almost overturned by the opponent, only to narrowly win 97:94.
He has been paying attention to defending against injuries, but he didn't expect Li Hai to be tricked this time.
However, he is no longer in the state of fearing injuries like a tiger. This time it was a complete accident. What he has to do is to actively recover and conduct some targeted training. Even if the same accident occurs in the future, he will make more correct actions. Respond to prevent re-injury.
Although he was not as afraid of injuries as when he first came to the United States, Li Hai still took injuries very seriously. After all, he was ruined by injuries in another time and space.
Unexpectedly, Li Hai's injury had a huge impact on the team.
The Knicks lacked Li Hai, a hard-working player in defense, and the loopholes instantly increased.
On January 1, the Knicks lost 28:76 to the 91ers in an away game. Without Li Hai as a barrier, Eddie Curry graduated with six fouls in three quarters.
On January 1, the Knicks played away against the Eagles.
Although the three rookies Channing Frye, David Lee and Marcin Gortat all scored in double figures inside, the Knicks were in a mess outside, and finally lost 101:120.
On January 1, the Knicks returned to their home court to play back-to-back against the Lakers.
In the three games, the Knicks tried different three people at the third position, David Lee, Quentin Richardson, and Malik Rose, but with Lee's previous performance, they couldn't let La Lee Brown is satisfied.
In the game against the Lakers, they were slaughtered by the Lakers 130:97. The poor defense almost made Larry Brown faint.
And the misfortune never comes singly. When Marbury was behind by a big score, he was reluctant for a while, and the injury that had not been completely healed had problems again, and he needed a truce.
This is good, the Knicks No. [-] and No. [-] are injured, and for the first time this season, there is a shortage of people.
Li Hai was clearly in a hurry and didn't think about the losing streak. He sorted out the experience of injury prevention and recovery, went to Marbury's place, and pulled Marbury to study together.
"Stephen, you have to know that physical problems cannot be sloppy. This time, you must recover from your injuries before you come back. Even if your record drops a little, it doesn't matter. You won't be able to play against anyone in the playoffs."
Marbury said speechlessly: "I'm also a veteran of the league. I still need you to remind me about this, but you are too exaggerated. Didn't you say that you have a minor injury? Why did you prepare so many things? How scary."
"It's not fear, it's caution. The body is the capital of revolution...the capital of dribbling."
Marbury didn't know that Li Hai had always attached great importance to injury prevention, and there was another reason for his experience in time and space. However, many of these materials were actually compiled when he communicated with Yao Ming.
Regarding Yao Ming's health, Li Hai may be more worried than the Rockets, and the two often communicate with each other.
The root of everything is because he hopes that the national team can become stronger, and he wants to represent his motherland to win in world competitions.
