Chapter 223 New York
New York, the largest city in the United States, is also one of the largest cities in the world.
New York has a very special place in America.It's the same in basketball.
Together with Los Angeles on the west coast, the New York Knicks, which has the top two basketball markets in the United States, are far behind the Lakers in Los Angeles.
The Lakers are not without a trough, and every time the team's core retires, it will bring a trough to the Lakers.But every time, the Lakers will use their own way to quickly find a new team core to complete the reconstruction.
George Mikan, Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry West, Magic Johnson, Shaquille O'Neal.Why not.And every time the team's core changes, it can quickly bring the Lakers back to the championship ranks.
As for the Knicks, the Knicks, whose team history is even longer than the Lakers, have only won championships in the Willis Reid era for decades.
Today's Knicks are on the road to revival. The team led by Steve Marbury, Jamal Crawford, and Tony Douglas has occupied a place in the East with its fierce offensive firepower.
Many basketball experts and Knicks celebrities have said that once the Knicks can get an excellent insider, then the Knicks will immediately win another glorious era after Willis Reed.
The Knicks boss Dolan is also aware of this. He strictly ordered the Knicks uniform team to hurry up and find a suitable insider for the Knicks.
Eddy Curry of the Orlando Magic and Zach Randolph of the Portland Trail Blazers have become the focus of their pursuit.
Curry and Randolph, who also entered the league in 01, are about to end their rookie contracts.Both the Magic and the Trail Blazers are facing the problem of renewing their super insiders.
艾迪库里在本赛季场均出战31分钟，就能够拿到19.2分8.1篮板和2.6助攻以及0.8盖帽。
Standard super center data and 23 years old make many people optimistic about Curry's future.Curry's agent even proposed a five-year super contract with an average salary of $5 million to the Magic uniform team.
If you look at Curry's data and combat effectiveness, he is worth the price.But looking at the number of appearances and playing time of Curry this season, he really can't bear the responsibility of a center as the team leader.
Of course, as long as Curry can maintain his current state and playing time, the Knicks will be very satisfied.Because in the eyes of the Knicks uniform, the core of the team is still Marbury and Crawford, not the inside.
Of course, they also have a second choice, Zach Randolph.Played 46 games this season, started 37 games, averaged 33.6 minutes per game, scored 18.6 points, 9.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 0.8 blocks.
Randolph does not have the potential injury risks like Curry, but he has just been reimbursed this season.Moreover, the Blazers seem to have plans to play badly, and they have not left his mind.
So Dolan even gave the uniform team an order to get one or even both of them to New York before the end of the season.
But this season, the Knicks still have to rely on double guns in the backcourt and the sixth man Douglas to dominate the world.
Just looking at the data, the three of them are extremely luxurious.
马布里:出战51场，场均上场38.2分钟，场均23.7分5.6助攻3.8篮板。
克劳福德:出战50场，场均上场40.6分钟，场均得到20.6分5.3篮板3.1助攻
Coupled with Douglas who can win 12+6, the Knicks' main lineup is formed.Everyone else is building around this roster.
Putting down the Knicks information, Wang Shipeng sighed.
The last time I came to New York was last season, and I played against the Knicks three times this season, all of which were in the second half of the season, including a back-to-back.
That's right, on March 3th and 5th, the Bulls led by Wang Shipeng will challenge the New York Knicks twice in two consecutive days.And they're all on the road.The season finale will be against the Knicks at home.
"Guys, these days I need everyone to stay in the hotel at night, and I will organize everyone to check the bed every night." Cartwright stood up and said to everyone.
The wolves of the Bulls, who had been excited about coming to a place of feasting and feasting like New York, suddenly howled.But Cartwright was unaffected.
Wang Shipeng was a little puzzled, it seemed that the head coach attached great importance to the game against the Knicks.You know, although the Knicks are currently sixth in the Eastern Conference, the Bulls are third in the Eastern Conference.
Then Wang Shipeng patted his head fiercely, look at my memory.Now there is only a little over a month left in the regular season.Looking at the current ranking, if there is not much change, it is likely to enter the playoffs.
After all, the Pacers, ranked No. [-] in the Eastern Conference, and the Heat, No. [-], are currently in great shape, and it is difficult for the Bulls to catch up.It is also difficult for the Eagles, who are seventh in the East, and the Magic, who are eighth, to catch up with the Knicks.
So Cartwright wants to have a playoff rehearsal.Wang Shipeng finally figured out why Cartwright had been so serious since he got on the plane.
Because a blizzard hit New York, the flight that was supposed to fly to New York yesterday afternoon waited until today. As a result, the Bulls had almost no time to adjust, and had to enter a state of preparation as soon as they arrived in New York.
So when the Bulls arrived at Madison Square Garden at 06:30 in the evening, they were still listless.
"What's the matter with you?" Douglas immediately approached Wang Shipeng enthusiastically when he saw Wang Shipeng entering the arena, and then he was very surprised to see the tired faces of everyone.
"What's more, Tony, we haven't gotten over the jet lag yet." Pago curled his lips and said helplessly.
You know, a few hours ago, the Bulls were still in San Francisco on the west coast, but now they have arrived in New York on the east coast.
Douglas understood it as soon as he heard it, but he still had lingering fears when he thought of the snowstorm that hit New York two days ago.
"No way, you know, New York was almost buried under the snow. It's lucky that the game can go smoothly."
Wang Shipeng's heart moved when he thought of the snow on the roadside on the way to the arena.
"I've heard it's a cold snap coming down from Canada, and I don't know if it's going to spread to other places."
Wang Shipeng himself did not expect that the word became a prophecy, and soon, he would face an unprecedented snowstorm with the people of Chicago.
