The second half of the game began.
As soon as they came up, the Knicks set off a wave of counterattacks under Anthony's leadership.
Anthony was worthy of being an offensive kaleidoscope. He used jump shots, breakthroughs, layups, and all sorts of methods to score.
The Nets sent Covington and Landry to take turns pressing, but they could not limit Anthony's scoring.
The difference between the two sides was quickly pulled to 15 points.
Fortunately, the Nets 'offense was not weak.
Both sides exchanged blows, and wonderful goals kept appearing.
The audience on the sidelines was thrilled.
The Knicks fans were already used to losing, so they did not have any requirements for victory or defeat. As long as they had a fast pace and scored more goals, it was fine.
Nelson Sr. was the pioneer of fast-paced basketball.
In terms of speed, who could compare to Old Nelson?
Half a quarter passed.
Because of the fast pace of offense and defense on the Knicks 'side, many players were already exhausted.
Anthony also held his knees and began to pant.
On the Nets 'side, other than Scola and Landry, who were a little older, the rest were all young and physically stronger than the veterans of the Knicks.
Coupled with Old Nelson's reasonable physical allocation,
The Nets were much better than the Knicks!
During the half-time pause of the third quarter, the gap was 20 points again.
Jeff, the head coach of the Knicks, kept scratching his head. His head, which was not thick to begin with, was almost bald.
The best player in the Knicks was Anthony, followed by Porzingis.
The Knicks were not bad at offense.
But as a defender
Jeff sighed and looked at the team's general manager, Perry.
Perry was stunned for a moment. He understood Jeff's gaze.
defender
Calderon was old and in poor condition. He really couldn't bear the burden of the Knicks 'organization.
Before, Perry wanted to trade Ross to make up for the Knicks 'weakest point guard.
Although he had avoided the big pit of Rose, the problem of the defenders was still not resolved.
In this day and age, it was not easy to find a capable, young, and promising defender.
Perry looked at Lovell with envy.
Lovell was this year's number 20 rookie, and his draft pick wasn't high.
But after only two and a half quarters, Lovell had scored 28 points.
He would probably set the record for the highest score in the first game of an NBA rookie.
He was jealous!
The more Perry looked at Lovell, the more he liked him.
The more he looked, the more he felt that this child was the next Kobe and McGrady.
"If only I could swap this child."
Perry had this thought in his mind.
"But, who should I exchange it with?"
Perry had a headache.
Looking at the Knicks players on the field, Perry really didn't think there was anything he could do.
Porzingis?
This second-year rookie had shown great potential.
It could be said that in the next few years, he would definitely be able to make it to the All-Stars.
Perry was reluctant to send away such a potential player.
while others
Perry looked around and didn't see any suitable bargaining chips.
"Bang!"
The sound of metal striking woke Perry up.
It was Anthony.
Anthony was obviously a little tired after he got on the court. He missed three shots in a row.
"Anthony!"
Perry mumbled.
In terms of transaction value, Anthony was indeed not bad.
After all, he had scored an average of 21.8 points per game last season.
But looking further ahead, it was obvious that Anthony's condition was declining.
Anthony, who had a salary of more than 24 million and played a little alone, was indeed a little too much for a team that wanted to rebuild.
In the next few years, Anthony still had a contract of more than 20 million yuan per year.
For a superstar who was on the decline, this contract wasn't very cost-effective.
Moreover, the New York Knicks had one of the worst contracts in team history, Jokinoah.
A player whose stats had dropped to single-digit points and single-digit rebounding was still earning 17 million a year.
Anthony and Noah severely limited the rebuilding of the Knicks.
Compared to Noah, Anthony was worth a lot of money.
Any team that wanted to win the championship should not reject this offensive kaleidoscope.
"Sigh, if only Lovell could be paired with Porzingis.”
" The two of them are one inside and one outside, just like O'Neal and Kobe, Yao Ming and McGrady, and Nash and Stoudemire."
Perry became more and more excited.
"Should I use Anthony to exchange for Lovell?”
Perry frowned.
Using Anthony in exchange for a rookie?
He felt like he was losing out!
There were only so many NBA superstars. It was not easy for the team to have a superstar like Anthony. If he traded Anthony out,
He was afraid that he would be scolded to death by the fans.
Perry was not an impulsive general manager.
Before each transaction, he would carefully consider it.
Anthony for Lovell?
Perry wouldn't make such a decision yet.
