Chapter 805: Can't stop scoring

37 wins and 3 losses, the Knicks completed the pursuit of the Bulls in the tsunami.

"From the best 10 games to the best 40 games, halfway through the game, the Knicks played with real guns and real guns to tell people that they are not a flash in the pan, they really have the ability to touch that 30-year-old unbreakable player. 72-10 record!" Barkley said.

"I don't know if it will be this season, but there is no doubt that the Knicks are the most dominant team in the first half of the regular season in the new century, no one. I hope they can make persistent efforts in the second half of the game! Maybe this year, The majority of fans have the opportunity to witness the birth of the next 70+ wins." Kenny Smith's words are not full, after all, it is hard to say whether it can surpass the Bulls, but it is really possible to touch 70 wins.

After all, the strength of the Knicks this season is obvious to all, and Zuo Li, the absolute core of the Knicks team, faintly already has the style of Michael Jordan. Although the two play styles and positions are almost completely different, they have the same tenacity and unyielding character. The spirit of always winning is the same. You can never see them admit defeat, and even if they fall behind, you can never see their depressed and helpless expressions.

Fighting is their pass to the alliance.

Moreover, Zuo Li, like Jordan back then, has the characteristics that it is almost impossible to defend. His low-post footsteps and skills are too rich, which is a nightmare for every team inside.

Zuoli played 38 minutes in this game, made 23 shots and hit 17 goals, including 2 of 4 three-pointers, 7 of 10 free throws, and scored 43 points and 14 rebounds. This is Zuoli's 8th this season. Scored more than 40 times, ranking first in the league.

Of course, fans have long been accustomed to Zuo Li's performance, and even this season, Zuo Li has been questioned by many fans for not scoring high.

Of course, the high score here refers to the score of 50+ or ​​more. Unlike the previous two seasons, Zuo Li has not played a personal scoring performance similar to 63 in three quarters and 70+ in the audience, and the schedule is about to More than half, only one game has scored 50+. Although Zuo Li is still ranked first in the scoring list, compared with himself last season, the improvement is not obvious, which is also the reason for fans to question.

Of course, the question is not because Zuo Li can't do it, but because Zuo Li is paddling!

Yes, Zuo Li's ability is no longer questioned, because under the premise of maintaining almost the same score per game as last season, Zuo Li's average number of shots per game has decreased by 3, and the average shooting rate per game has increased by 4.5%. You must know that Zuo Li's hit rate is already high enough. Even in the inside position, Zuo Li is the best in the league. The hit rate in two seasons is above 60%, but even so, it can still be improved. Currently, it has reached 68.8 %, very close to the 70% level.

At the same time, Zuo Li's three-point shooting percentage has also increased by 2%, and his free throw percentage has increased by 5%. This proves that Zuo Li is not only the same Zuo Li, but has improved again, which is very important for an MVP. What a terrible thing for a star of this level.

But the hit rate has improved, but the total score has not changed much, so the fans all think that Zuo Li must have drawn his feelings!

So fans often ran to his INS account to "complain":

"Please play well! Stop paddling!"

"You're controlling points! If you get 30+, you won't play!? That's not good! You're only 22 years old!"

"How can you take 30+ and don't want to take it at your age, let's support it!"



In this regard, Zuo Li can only laugh and cry. He is really not ready to score high points this season, and he is also deliberately controlling the number of shots he takes. One is to improve his grasp of each ball. He is very interested in becoming the historical scoring champion. , but I can't wait to be grateful for being the king of iron in history. The second is to give the rest of the Knicks more time to grow.

The Knicks are a young team with a lot of young players, and young players want to grow, play more games, and make more shots is the best way, otherwise a talented rookie will be abandoned if you keep hanging around. Yes, like Milicic.

Looking at this game, Curry scored 18 points with 11 shots, David Lee scored 10 points with 8 shots, and Danny Green scored 7 points with 5 shots.

Don't look at it too much, but this is a necessary process for growth. After all, in this league, in addition to the super geniuses who can kill the Quartet when they come in, more players have learned and trained in this way.

So, for the future, for the future, Zuo Li will naturally not take everything.

And the reason why the Knicks can achieve such a record is also very understandable. In addition to the Knicks' own strength and novel tactics, this time is also very critical. The league alternates between new and old, and the old strength declines, such as the Lakers, Celtics, Magic , the Spurs and the sun, the new ones have not grown up, such as the Thunder, and the Heat who are not enough to run in together.

So in fact, this season has been very good, and the Knicks also happened to encounter this bayonet and seized the opportunity of the times.

As for the record, the right time, place and people are indispensable.

After the game, Zuo Li still kept a low profile and told reporters: "You can only know how strong the Bulls were when you played in person. Maybe the Knicks are over, we have been in the West for too long, maybe we can properly Just relax, after all, the All-Stars are coming."

As for Zuo Li's remarks, the Rockets and the Spurs said, "I believe in you!"

After the Phoenix game, the Knicks returned home to face the challenge of the former Texas duo.

The Rockets are the first to bear the brunt of this game. The most eye-catching player in this game is Dayao, who came to Madison Square Garden on crutches.

People thought he was here to cheer on the home team, the Rockets, but they did not know that he actually came to New York to meet with Zuo Li. The two talked a lot about the next work last night. UU Reading

On the night of January 20, Zuo Li smashed the rocket in front of Dayao.

Do you still remember Zuo Li and Morey's mouth-to-mouth battle after the last match? After this game, it is estimated that Morey won't be able to let out any bullshit.

In the first quarter, Zuo Li was overwhelmed on the inside and lost Dayao's containment. The Rockets couldn't even organize a decent defense against Zuo Li.

In a trance, the Rockets fans thought that the big shark Shaquille O'Neal and Kareem Kareem had come together on the inside.

So why not use Dream Steps?

Of course it's because it's not needed anymore!

Zuo Li wanted to tear apart all the rocket's defenses in the most brutal way.

22 points and 10 rebounds in a single quarter!

Zuo Li completed a double-double of 20+10 in a single quarter against the sky, and the Rockets next door scored a total of 4 rebounds in a quarter...

In the second quarter, Zuo Li directly blocked Martin, swayed to Budinger, and buckled Scola.

This ball shocked the mouths of commentators and fans all over the world.

Good guy, everyone else does one at a time, you have done all the most exciting things on these three courses in one round! !

21 points and 10 rebounds in a quarter...

Zuo Li, who played the full first half, clocked in early with 41 points, 20 rebounds and 6 blocks.
