NBA: No. 1 Forward

In the fourth quarter, Millsap pulled Boozer beyond the three-point line, and Lian Dao continued to break into the Jazz's inside line to score layups or draw fouls after confrontation.

Kirilenko, known as ak47, couldn't restrain Lian Dao's breakthrough at all. When Lian Dao was superior to Kirilenko in strength and speed, he was also smashed into a sieve by Lian Dao.

At this time, Jerry Sloan also had a special headache for Lian Dao. If even Kirilenko, who was the best defensive team in the past, couldn't defend Lian Dao, he would have to double-team.

But Jerry Sloan was tough, and he insisted that Kirilenko be alone.

In fact, it also proved Jerry Sloan's judgment that Lian Dao was exhausted in the second half of the fourth quarter.

But at this time, Millsap suddenly misfired on the outside.

David Lee was strictly guarded by Okur, and although Lian Dao kept firing three-pointers from the outside, his shooting percentage continued to decline under the condition of physical crisis.

In this way, the Jazz slowly opened the score again by virtue of Jerry Sloan's pick-and-roll tactics and their inside advantage.

At the end of the game, the Knicks lost 98:105 to the Jazz who came from afar.

The Knicks also received their first defeat of the season, and the Knicks' winning streak was also ended by the Jazz.

The Jazz are also on their losing streak.

Lian Dao also scored 28 points, 13 assists and 7 rebounds in this game.

In this game, Millsap scored a double-double with a game-high score of 36 points and 11 rebounds. The score also set a new high for Millsap's career.

During the interview, Lian Dao was asked the most: whether he was restricted by the Jazz and encountered a rookie wall.

In the interview, Lian Dao also affirmed the Jazz's defense. Although Kirilenko couldn't defend Lian Dao, the two insiders of the Jazz are really strong.

As long as Lian Dao breaks through the inside line, they will immediately shrink the line of defense, not giving Lian Dao the slightest chance at all, especially their quick defense, not giving the Knicks any chance at all, and Lian Dao's outside touch in the first half was not very good. It was not until the third quarter that he barely regained some touch.

Therefore, Lian Dao also generously admitted that he really did not play well in this game.

But what Lian Dao didn't expect was that Jerry Sloan had a very high opinion of him.

Jazz press conference scene.

When the reporter asked about Jerry Sloan's evaluation of Lian Dao.

Jerry Sloan praised Lian Dao without hesitation. He appreciated Lian Dao's offensive selection and defense very much, and even said that Lian Dao was his most promising rookie in recent years.

Lian Dao was also very surprised by this. If these words came from Popovich, Lian Dao would not be surprised at all, because what Popovich likes to do most is to praise his opponents and then give them a hammer. After some mindless analysis, many fans below praised: Zhuge Weiqi is indeed!

But this kind of behavior of Popovich, in the eyes of Lian Dao, is a downright old bastard.

Moreover, Popovich is not as brilliant as some people are. When he first became the head coach of the Spurs, what tactics did he use? Just give the ball to Duncan. It can be said that he has hugged Duncan's thigh for more than ten years! Wait until the tide recedes to find out who is swimming naked. Later, gdp retired, and as soon as Xiaoka left, oh well...

Tyronn Lue: So I'm equal to Popovich?

But to be honest, Jerry Sloan is unlikely to be like Popovich. This old man is notoriously stubborn and tough in the league. If he doesn't like a player, he will never pretend to flatter him.

In an interview with a reporter from "Sports Illustrated", he was asked: "Why don't you often praise players?"

He said directly and unabashedly: "Haven't they already been paid? This industry is different from other industries, and the total salary is much higher than others. I have also been a player before, I know, a successful player , once he gets on the court, he has to live up to his salary."

It can be said that such a stubborn and tough old man can hear praise from him, which is really a big surprise to Lian Dao.

This defeat of the Knicks made the media seem like a cat smelling fishy. After the game, these media also claimed that when the Knicks met a strong team, their shortcomings would be completely exposed, and Lian Dao would no longer maintain The previous legend.

Some media even said that Lian Dao has encountered a rookie wall, and other team coaches have found a way to deal with Lian Dao.

However, they never thought that the Knicks were still the bottom of the league last season.

And this season, it can beat the Heat, beat the Cavaliers, and even fight the Jazz until the first half of the next quarter. Isn't that not enough?

Don't the media know? Of course he knows, but if he writes like this, who will spend money to read it? For fake fans, it’s just novelty, and writing like this can attract everyone to the greatest extent.

Best of all, it can arouse heated discussions among everyone!

Sure enough, the next day's news was also negative for Lian Dao.

For example, the title of some media articles "The Jazz ended the Knicks' winning streak, Sickle scored only 28 points in the game."

When the little senior sister showed the newspaper to Lian Dao, Lian Dao couldn't laugh or cry.

When did the NBA have such high requirements for rookies, and the word "only" has to be used to express 28 points.

Before, rookies could average 20 points per game. These media have blown them to the sky. Why, when I get 28 points here, the future is hopeless

"Don't take it to heart, your performance before was really against the sky. This time you met a strong enemy and returned to normal, they deliberately made a big fuss." The little senior sister comforted Lian Dao by rubbing her temples.

"I didn't take it to heart, I knew what level I was."

Lian Dao nodded, he didn't take it seriously, the experience of the two generations really made him understand these media too well.

Moreover, there is no one in the world who knows his own level better than him. The current evaluation given by the system allows him to always understand his own strength.

It's just that when I read these articles, I couldn't help but want to complain.

But this competition also gave Lian Dao a wake-up call.

The excellent performance of the previous few games made his mentality fluctuate, and he became a little impetuous and arrogant.

Thinking about it carefully, I haven't practiced for a week, but just complete the two-hour immersive training in the system space step by step at night.

I am a bit like the Jennings in history now. …

Lian Dao, who realized the problem, also began to make changes at this time.

He discussed with his personal trainer Chris Brickley to rework the training plan.

Keep the original inside footsteps and mid-range shooting training unchanged, and then add physical training, multi-person confrontation shooting training, and multi-person double-team breakthrough training.

In the game against the Jazz, the lack of shooting stability under confrontation was also exposed, which is what Lian Dao needs to improve most at present.

Now almost all the teams in the league know about Lian Dao, and he will no longer have as many open opportunities as before.

It can be seen from the game against the Jazz, so now he has to improve his shooting stability.

Next, besides the game, Lian Dao turned into a mouse in the training hall again~www.innread.com~ Arrive at the arena at 6 am and leave at 10 pm.

He tried to train at 4 am every day before, but found that his physical condition was not recovering well, so he chose to get up at 5:30 every day and arrive at the arena at 6 am. He couldn't do it at 4 am every day in Los Angeles, but at 6 am It is still possible.

In fact, Kobe did not train at four o'clock in the morning every day, which was also said in his later interviews.

Just when Lian Dao was training.

Lian Dao and Wilson went to the bar before, but they did not expect to be photographed secretly. I don't know if it was the reporter who secretly photographed it, or he got it through special means.

Then, the reporter sent it out with text.

However, Lian Dao was at the bar at the time, and fortunately he was drinking fruit juice, and there was no woman beside him. Since Lian Dao couldn't stand the group of them, he was alone near the bar outside, and only Lian Dao was in the candid photos.

Even so, he was criticized by the media.

For this reason, Lian Dao could only shake his head and smile wryly, but Wilson Chandler, an unreliable guy, actually chose a bar with such poor privacy, so Wilson was also given special training by the whole team.
