Is the New York Knicks strong or not?
For ordinary teams, it is indeed very strong.
Anthony and Stoudemire are both players averaging 25+ per game, while Deron, as a point guard, has averaged about 18 points per game after joining the Knicks, but his assists per game are still in double digits. 10.3 assists look at the entire league second only to Nash, Rondo and Jeremy Lin.
From the data point of view, the Knicks' Big Three are no less than the Heat's Big Three.
But in fact, there is a huge gap between the two teams.
This can be seen from the third in the east and the eighth in the east.
None of the Knicks’ three giants is a defensive and hard-working master.
Needless to say, Stoudemire spent his early career with D'Antoni in the Suns and basically didn't know what the defense was.
Anthony is also a typical offensive strong and weak, or rather prefers to focus on offense than defense.
Deron Williams' defensive ability is quite good under the training of Sloan, but after all, he is playing as a point guard. This position is difficult to make a big contribution to the team on the defensive end.
So to sum up, the Knicks' defense and Heat are far from the world, and the Wizards' favorite is such a team.
From the beginning, the two teams attacked each other without giving way.
The Wizards' starting lineups are Curry, Green, George, Jamison and Jordan Jr.
In the playoffs, Wang Xiao officially put George into the starting position.
This season, in addition to fighting against the Heat, James, George did not have many opportunities to reason, the team's ball rights are basically in the hands of Curry and Harden.
But Wang Xiao has never underestimated George, this guy has never lost to Curry Harden's top star in the future.
For the cultivation of George, Wang Xiao has never been sloppy, and his training skills have never been painful, and he enjoys the same standards as Curry Harden.
As the saying goes, raising a soldier for a thousand days is a temporary task.
In the playoffs, Wang Xiao immediately put George on the starting lineup and made Butler retire from the bench.
Butler has no opinion on this.
In daily training, he can clearly feel the almost amazing growth rate of George. If Butler is now playing against George, he is not sure that he can win the other party.
And George is still growing, and no one knows where he will grow in the future.
At this time, Butler just signed a big joint with the team, and with the team winning 68 games in a single season, it can be said that it has been desperate.
If there is anything else he wants to get, then it is undoubtedly the O'Brien Cup representing the highest honor in the NBA.
And this coincides with his giving up the starting position.
George is younger and more aggressive than him. His offensive ability is not inferior to him. At the same time, his defensive ability is very good.
If George is any worse than him, it is experience.
Let George start, he went to the bench, obviously more cost-effective, George brings better defense to the starting lineup, and he brings a more stable scoring output for the bench.
"Rookie..."
Sitting on the bench, Butler looked at George running on the field and silently said: "Let me see your skills!"

On the field, George has been staring at Anthony.
Cameron Anthony, the league's top small forward, looks at the entire NBA. I am afraid that only James can overwhelm him.
It is no exaggeration to say that Anthony in the small forward position is the second person under James.
Of course, the newly emerged Kevin Durant in the past two years also seems to be very strong, but that guy is too young to compare with James Anthony for the time being.
As soon as the game started, George tried to limit Anthony, but he simply failed.
Anthony is more difficult to defend than James.
Unlike James, who eats a lot of food and focuses on tank-style crushing breakthroughs, Anthony's offensive methods are too rich.
Since joining the league, Anthony has the title of offensive kaleidoscope.
From outside to inside, from breakthroughs to shots, there are few moves that Anthony will not.
At this point, Anthony and George are quite similar in style, but obviously Anthony is much better than George on the offensive end.
Within 5 minutes of the start, Anthony scored 8 points in a row, almost pushing George into a sieve.
George clearly didn't expect that Anthony in the playoffs was so strong, which was very different from the regular season.
George was deflated on the wing, but the Wizards were not in the disadvantage.
Because Curry's scoring efficiency did not lose Anthony at all, even more efficient than Anthony!
Unlike George, who played in the playoffs for the first time, Curry, who has already played in the playoffs for the second time, is braving himself!
Last season, because of an accidental sprained ankle, Curry missed all games from the second round, which made him very uncomfortable.
Although the team passed all the way through, defeated the Magic, and reached the Eastern Conference finals, when facing the Celtics, they were directly eliminated without any resistance.
Curry was thinking at that time, if he was on the field, the situation might be very different!
With such an idea, Curry showed a strong offensive desire on the court, and then hit two defensive points against Deron's face.
In 5 minutes, Anthony scored 8 points and Curry scored 11 points with a jump shot.
Throughout the first quarter of the game, the Knicks scored 28 points, including Anthony scored 14 points, Stoudemire 6 points, Deron Williams 5 points, the remaining players totaled 3 points.
The Wizards scored 36 points in the first quarter, and Curry scored 17 points by himself.
Looking at the frowning D'Antoni on the Knicks bench, Wang Xiao couldn't help but raise his mouth.
What a joke? Offense against me?
This season, the Wizards averaged 116.4 points per game, ranking first in the league. Although the Knicks also ranked third in the league in scoring, the average score of 106 points per game is close to the Wizards by nearly 10 points. the above!
Even if the Knicks have the super offensive combination of Anthony, Stoudemire and Deron, Wang Xiao is not at all intimidating.
come! See who's attack is fiercer!
In the second quarter, the Knicks made some adjustments. Anthony took a rest and Deron and Stoudemire played a pick-and-roll match on the court.
Deron started with the pick-and-roll tactics of Boozer when he was in the Jazz. Under the training of Sloan, the master of pick-and-roll, Deron's pick-and-roll skills are quite good.
And Stoudemire is also a player who is very good at pick and roll. When the Suns, Stoudemire often cooperated with Nash to pick and roll.
But unfortunately, the Wizards side also happened to start a pick-and-roll tactic, and the initiator of the tactic is James Harden.
