Coach Brooks called a timeout and then made a re-adjustment. With Kevin Martin on the way, the Thunder did not dare to use the defensive method of emptying the one side.

Back to the Thunder who was defending regularly, I found that I could not defend Zhou Mubai, Westbrook could not defend Zhou Mubai, and Brooks asked Sapo Sovlosa to defend, but it did not work.

So Brooks asked Durant to defend Zhou Mubai, trying to use Durant's long arms to cover Zhou Mubai. However, Zhou Mubai's passing Durant was like a wooden stake - Durant was too tall!

If Durant six or seven years later, he might be able to defend Zhou Mubai with the help of his teammates, but Durant is too immature now, and his height is his advantage, but under Zhou Mubai's attack, he has become a completely disadvantage.

Fortunately, the Thunder's offense is pretty good. With the help of Durant's personal offense, the Thunder was barely broken by too much by the Knicks. However, at the end of the half, the Thunder was already 15 points behind.

Mark Jackson was so proud of his high-five.

"You always praise Donny Walsh for that old guy. I'm not convinced. Today I'm convinced!"

"...Chandler's arrival brought a solid shield to the Knicks. It was obviously difficult for the Thunder to attack the Knicks' basket tonight. Although there are still loopholes, the loophole is because the teammates are not familiar with each other. In time, the Knicks' inside line is at least at the middle and upper level defense!"

"...Jamison's arrival gave the Knicks an extra choice beyond three-pointers. His wandering within the three-point line must be taken seriously, otherwise once Zhou Mubai connects with him, it will be a disaster for the opponent."

"…What is even more surprising is Kevin Martin. This young man is impressive. Before coming again, there are always people who think he is not efficient and cannot match the Knicks who win with high efficiency. But what did we see tonight? Martin is 9 of 11 tonight. Who else thinks he is not efficient?"

"...Donny, an old guy, is indeed very powerful. He first grabbed Zhou Mubai from the competition for many teams, and now he used some big contracts that are about to expire to exchange for the team's most scarce inside line. The mid-range scorer and weak side assaulter completely liberated Zhou Mubai. I'm convinced by these magical operations!"

Mark Jackson was amazed.

Van Gundy smiled and said, "That's true. With Jamison and Kevin Martin, Zhou Mubai was completely liberated tonight.

In the past, the opponent always used the method of attacking Zhou Mubai to force Zhou Mubai to call out the ball.

Although Zhou Mubai also has a solution, after the playoffs, this is a point that his opponent Koz takes advantage of.

Once you encounter a team like the Celtics or the Spurs, this defect of the Knicks is fatal!”

Mike Bryn agreed with this view: "Yes, the three new players of the Knicks are indeed great value, and to a large extent, the Knicks' lineup is complete.

I wonder if you have noticed that the Knicks have much more offensive routines tonight than before. Could it be that the tactics developed by Coach D'Antoni?"

"Hahahaha!" Little Van Gundy laughed, "You're wrong. In such a short time, how could it be possible to set up so many tactics? And the tactics take a long time to be used. It's impossible to do it in such a short time."

"Then what do I see?"

Van Gundy looked at Zhou Mubai who ran out of the passage. Half time had already come, and the second half was about to begin. Van Gundy smiled and pointed at Zhou Mubai.

"You mean that these are all tactics that Zhou Mubai played on the court... This is impossible. How do you explain that other people's running positions are so consistent with those tactics?"

Mike Brin widened his eyes and didn't believe what Van Gundy said at all.

Little Van Gundy looks like you are still too young.

"There is nothing impossible. Have you noticed that the Knicks players are basically the same place, and then they will run under Zhou Mubai's command later?"

After all, Mike Brin is not a fool. He suddenly realized: "Generally speaking, the point guards will make gestures when playing any tactics in halftime. The Knicks are in the same position every time, which means they have no so-called tactics at all!"

Van Gundy nodded and said, "The starter changed three new players at once, and there is no way to play tactics anyway.

However, Zhou Mubai can use his offensive position to attract opponents' attacks and point out the running route for his teammates.

After all, whether it is Jamison, Chandler, or Martin, they are all experienced veterans. Zhou Mubai has paved the way for them, so they naturally know how to run.

So it seems that the Knicks have a lot of tactics and the fight is smooth, but in fact they don’t!”

Mark Jackson and Mike Bryn were amazed.

Then they watched the Knicks in the second half with a scrutiny. After watching half a quarter, the two of them finally felt convinced.

"Jeff, you're right. The Knicks do not have tactics, but they are the most tactical. Because the Knicks have a Zhou Mubai who has its own tactical system!"

Mike Bryndot.

Coach Brooks held his arms and looked bad. He had a lot of expectations for this game. The Knicks suddenly made multiple trades, which in his opinion would definitely make the Knicks confused all of a sudden. This is a game that can be won.

The Thunder's situation this year is not optimistic. One-third of the schedule has passed, but the Thunder is still hovering outside the top eight in the West. Every game is very important to the Thunder. After all, the competition in the West is too cruel. If you don't pay attention, you may miss the playoffs.

So Brooks made a lot of preparations for this game. He was going to cut Zhou Mubai and others apart, and then the Knicks lost the starting point and would naturally fall into chaos. In fact, he believed that the Knicks could not avoid chaos at all.

In Brooks' opinion, the Knicks' operations are still too aggressive.

Generally speaking, if a team that is interested in the playoffs will not make large-scale transactions in the middle of the season, because it will break the original structure. If you are not careful, the entire team will be sent into the abyss.

In general playoff teams, they will carefully strengthen some positions without destroying the structure, so as to avoid errors in running-in.

It is rare to stuff three new players into the starting lineup like the Knicks at once, and it is no different from rebuilding a team.

Without training and no running-in, in the eyes of coach Brooks, the Knicks will undoubtedly lose!
