Chapter 488: Lone Wolf

Most teams and fans in this league are by no means fans of Anjie, and there is no doubt that this is true. The more he wins, the more people he will offend. The more famous he becomes, the more likely he will make enemies.

The Madison Square Garden in New York may be one of the least welcomes Angel. The fans here have not forgotten what cruel means did Angel use to destroy Madison Square Garden during the time when the Knicks couldn't help.

The fans who hold revenge will not forgive An Jie for this, so when An Jie appears, he received a unified boo from the Knicks fans. This boo is no less than the cheers An Jie gets in the Rose Garden.

Spike Lee, who was sitting in the first row of the audience, was very conflicted because he was a loyal fan of the Knicks, but at the same time, he also admired Angel very much. He neither wanted the Knicks to lose, nor hoped that Angel could perform well to warm up their documentary.

Speaking of the court, before the game started, Angel had a very pleasant chat with the two Knicks players. Of course, these two people could not be Stoudemire and Anthony, but the Trail Blazers' substitute inside combination last season, Cote Thomas and Marcus Camby.

"You kid are making great progress this season." Cambie saw Anjie walking towards him with a laugh, and went up and lined up with a big palm on Anjie's butt.

"Hehe, your record is not bad, you only have one less win than the Heat." Anjie embraced the two veterans who assisted him last season. As time goes by, Anjie's chances of meeting his former teammates in other teams are getting higher and higher.

"Be careful, that guy Cameron has been crazy about winning these days. And as far as I know, he still remembers the revenge when he was eliminated by the Thunder in the playoffs." As he chatted, Cote Thomas suddenly whispered in Angel's ear.

"It's different. This guy has become very different since joining the Knicks. He is colder, better, and more gloomy than before. Today you want to take the victory away from Madison Square Garden, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as before." Marcus Camby also took over the words.

"I know, I don't plan to wait for Cameron to give up the victory. Sorry, guys, today, you have to lose a game." Angel smirked at the two veterans Thomas and Camby, but Camby and Thomas didn't laugh. They knew that Angel had this ability!

"An! The chat time is over!" It was not until Divac shouted at Anjie that Anjie turned around reluctantly.

"Do you think Cameron can beat this kid?" Looking at Angel Benbing's back, Thomas asked Camby.

"Cameron may win, but the Knicks...then they may not win the Trail Blazers." After Camby said that, he was also urged by the Knicks assistant coach to warm up.

Camby and Thomas, the two old guys, have worked with Anjie for the whole season, and from training to competitions, they have been able to fully understand Anjie's strength. It is precisely because of this that these two old guys feel that the Knicks are in danger.

After the warm-up, both players took off their training suits and gathered around their respective head coaches, listening to the coaching staff making the final arrangements.

Afterwards, both sides appeared and Madison Square Garden welcomed the first little **. But this time, Anjie no longer squirted with Stoudemire in the middle circle. Because the "little bully" who once made Anjie's head bleed was sitting on the Knicks' bench with a declining expression.

Injury, this is the superficial reason why Studmeier is sitting on the bench. But Angel knows that there is no problem with Stedemeier playing now. The real reason why Stedemeier loses his main position is precisely because of Anthony's strength.

Since Anthony joined the Knicks, Stedemeier has been unable to integrate with Anthony. The Knicks' poor performance in the playoffs last season forced the team's management to make a choice.

In the end, Anthony established the team's core position, while Stedemeier was slowly marginalized by the team.

At the beginning of this season, when Stedemeier was unable to play, Anthony led the Knicks to make a big stride and achieved the excellent result of 21 wins and 9 losses, second in the East.

Therefore, even though Stodmeier has returned from injury, the Knicks decided to let Sir, a player with an annual salary of more than 1.70 million yuan, play as a substitute. They are worried that Sir and Anthony will still be incompatible and will affect the team's chemistry. For Sir, the Knicks' record is there, and he has to accept the role of substitute.

So this time, as Anger's old opponent, Stedemeier can only watch Anger and Anthony's performances on the bench first. I wonder if this guy who is unwilling to accept this will be completely exploded or completely sink into the game after he comes on the court later.

Stedemier, and Cott Thomas became the power forward of the Knicks. And then the champion of the Mavericks, "boxing champion", Chandler, took the center position.

In addition, the Knicks point guard is Old Kidd, while the shooting guard is the mediocre Ronnie Brewer. The Knicks' lineup may not be strong on paper. But it is precisely because of their small forward Cameron Anthony that the Knicks can become one of the strong teams this season.

The game officially started with the shouts of "BeaT, an" from the fans of Madison Square Garden and the cheers of Chinese fans in front of the TV.

Tyson Chandler, whose physical functions have been severely degraded, undoubtedly lost in the competition.

To be honest, if it weren't for the point guard's position, Knicks coach Mike Woodson wouldn't have chosen to let the elderly Kidd play this.

He admitted that Kidd is one of the greatest point guards in the league. But Kidd, who will be over forty in two months, has the same role as Fischer of the Trail Blazers.

What Kidd can do now is just to use experience to help the team. As for the other point guard of the Knicks, it is Argentina's golden generation veteran Pablo Prigioni. This guy is an "old rookie" born after 70s. Instead of making a person who is older and has no experience in NBa games, Kidd seems to be Mike Woodson's only choice.

Therefore, the young and energetic Lillard used his overwhelming advantage to break through Kidd and made a throw before Chandler made up for defense.

The fans of the Knicks were naturally very unwilling to be scored by the Trail Blazers at the beginning. Fortunately, Cameron Anthony, the new owner of New York City, immediately responded to the Trail Blazers.

Iguodala is indeed one of the best outside defenders in the league, but a guy like Anthony can break through the limit. Even Iguodala, it is very difficult to limit Anthony.

Anthony did not confront Iguodala outside the three-point line, but sat in a low position and played back-to-back singles!

Anthony's playing style was only after the Knicks. Due to Stoudemire's play and stop-and-stop play and Cott Thomas' aging, Anthony often has to reach the fourth position in the Knicks.

But after being forced to play the fourth position, Anthony was surprised to find that he had extremely high talent in low-post offense. Data has proved that Anjie's efficiency in low-post offense is far higher than ordinary offensive methods.

So for this first goal, Anthony used his back to jump shot, tied the score for the Knicks.

"If Cameron continues to play rashly at the low post, we don't know if Coach Ricard will let Ann defend Cameron himself. This crazy young coach dares to play any card." Seeing this scene, O'Neal couldn't help but be excited. If Iguodala continues to defeat, maybe people will see the direct match between Anger and Anthony in a while!

Although Anthony's offense just now was indeed beautiful, the Knicks now have a difficult problem - defense.

Tyson Chandler is undoubtedly one of the best franchise guards in the league, but when facing Anger, Chandler's defensive advantage was simply not swept.

Whether it is single defense or auxiliary defense, Chandler will be bound by the extremely threatening Angel. The strongest defense backbone is offset, relying solely on the defense of Old Kidd, Brewer and the elderly Cott Thomas and the Knicks can be said to be shaking.

In just ten seconds, the Trail Blazers remained in color after Anthony scored. Still Lillard, his breakthrough was completely unstoppable by Kidd, who was nearly 40 years old.

After successfully breaking through, Lillard divided the ball into Matthews after attracting defense. Matthews scored the ball in the first three-point attempt at the opening. The Trail Blazers' offense was still relaxed and comfortable.

However, Angel had just returned and had not yet stood still. Anthony immediately took action after receiving Kidd's pass from outside the three-point line.

This sudden move naturally unexpectedly made Iguodala, so Iguodala did not interfere with Anthony's shooting.

As a result, An Jie had just realized what he had given birth and the basketball scored. With the same 3 points, the Knicks tied the score again.

"Cameron Anthony scored two goals in the first game, and today he is in a very hot state!" Everyone praised Anthony, and some bad-hearted photographers pointed the camera at Stodmeier on the bench. The better Anthony's performance, the more stinky Stodmeier's expression became. Because of Anthony's excellent performance, Stodmeier will be deprived of more playing time.

Afterwards, Anjie finally made his first move in the inside after a long ambush. It has to be admitted that Tyson Chandler's strict defense made Anjie feel a lot of pressure. But Anjie's offense is still extremely smooth.

Recently, Anjie especially likes to use his body to directly carry his opponent's dunk. Chandler uses top defense when defending Anjie.

But Anjie is not a naughty man, and he will not hit Chandler's gun. Seeing that Chandler would not let him hit him from the front, Anjie naturally chose to start from both sides.

With a superb step, Chandler's top defense was useless in this way. Anjie scored the first two points today, and the Trail Blazers' offense was still so "easy and pleasant".

However, before he was happy, No. 7, wearing the Knicks' white jersey at home, stood up again.

"Cameron Anthony made a quick stop and jumped, and Iguodala blocked him in the face. This guy's defense is indeed very good! But... the ball scored! The ball was still scored by Anthony, and he scored unreasonably! Cameron, Anthony made 3 of 3 shots and scored 7 points in a row! He alone shouldered the Knicks' offensive task!" Mike Bryn could vaguely feel that this night would be a night with a big explosion of data.

"Damn it! The ghost is still gone!" An Jie helped pick up the basketball on the ground. The defense just now can be said to be the most successful defense ever since the opening. However, Anthony still survived and completed an impossible goal. At this moment, An Jie had to be more careful about Anthony.

Anthony quickly retreated to defend, and he did not celebrate after scoring the goal. His hands and eyes were firmly staring at the Trail Blazers without any fear.

The Knicks' lineup is indeed not as good as the Trail Blazers, but Anthony does not think that the Trail Blazers can survive their crazy attacks!

One to five? No problem! Who said I was a superstar?

After Anjie scored the baseline ball, he looked at Ricard. Ricard just signaled Anjie to continue the attack. But Anjie knew that tonight, he and Anthony would inevitably fight against each other!
