    In China, EAl is also about to start.  In 2014, the Basketball Association reformed the league and introduced a policy of only playing one foreign player in the fourth quarter, but this was of no use.  Zhou Xuan delivered a speech in China. After the disastrous defeat in the Asian Championships, the Basketball Association finally made the decision to introduce a system in which each team can only hire one foreign player in the new season.  Restricting foreign aid in the fourth quarter and keeping the same for four quarters is just like the doctor's order to take three pills three times a day. You are worried that the dosage is too large and will have too many side effects, so you privately reduce it to two pills a day and one pill each time.  Does it have any effect?  Of course there is. After all, EA has started taking medicine, but the effect of the medicine will not be that obvious.  The fundamental contradiction of EAR is that there are few players but the team is still expanding, and the limited resources of outstanding professional players continue to be diluted.  There were not enough players, so foreign players were recruited. In the fourth quarter, single foreign players were restricted. The value of Asian foreign players immediately doubled because they were not among the restrictions.  Therefore, the Basketball Management Center dares not to get rid of Asian foreign players. This policy was originally meant to be gentle to Asian brother countries with the identity and mentality of a basketball power, but now it has become the opium that EA cannot live without.  Only a single foreign aid is allowed, regardless of whether it is foreign or Asian. In this way, it can at least change EA's current situation of "people are stupid and money comes quickly."  In the past, even people like Artest could go to EA to make money.  On October 3, the Knicks¡¯ opening game was against the Nets.  In a battle in the same city, both teams do not have to run far and can maintain their best condition.  The two teams have not competed in the preseason and have found other teams in the Eastern Conference. The Raptors and Wizards are good training targets.  They don't want their opponents to know their true identity.  Both sides sent out a super luxurious starting lineup.  The five Knicks: Zhou Xuan, Leonard, Rudy Gay, Bosh, Jefferson.  Nets five players: Deron Williams, Joe Johnson, Anthony, Monroe, Lopez.  Looking at the starting lineup alone, this is the most terrifying star showdown in recent years.  After the fight started, it was surprising. The Knicks quickly took the lead. Not only did they have a strong offense, but they also had a great defense.  In particular, Gay's defense against Anthony was very tight.  Relying on a pair of long arms and superhuman movement speed, Gay is rarely passed by in one step, which is enough to disturb any small forward's shooting.  Gay has 196 statistics all year round, but has never found a suitable system.  There must be shooters around him, because his three-point ability is average.  Regardless of the Grizzlies, Raptors or Kings, the starting lineups with him all lack pitchers and like to let him shoot three-pointers from the outside, which makes his efficiency average.  The advantage is that if you shoot more, you can practice three-pointers.  Major magazines basically don¡¯t mention Gay, but Parsons, Batum, and even Hayward can praise him.  Gallinari's field goal percentage is 4L and he averages 17 points per game. Some people say that he is a top ten small forward and the leader of the Nuggets.  How is Guy worse than these people?  ??Actually, apart from the three NHA forwards James, Anthony, and Durant, it¡¯s really hard to say who is better than Gay. Paul George rested for a season and is in poor condition. DeRozan also has no three-pointers.  No one else scored as many points as Gay.  Hayward's defense is terrible, but he is actually rated higher than Gay.  D¡¯Antoni arranged for Gay to play fast breaks. In the positional offense, he relied on side screens to cut through and play close to the basket in misplaced positions, while others opened up space for him.  This is the style of play proposed by Zhou Xuan, and the coaching staff adopted it.  Gay's mid-to-long-range shooting is average, and he wasn't very accurate last season. Most of his points were in the low post.  When he plays against a power forward, his efficiency is extremely high.  He has amazing talent, outstanding jumping, fast speed, strong explosive power, and it is difficult to block shots by turning around with speed. Of course, what the Knicks mainly value is his help on the defensive end, together with Iguodala, James, and George.  Gay's defense is a bit worse than that of Parsons, especially in terms of defense against breakthroughs.  The Nets' pick-and-roll offense is unfavorable. With Gay, Leonard can boldly defend the center. Deron can't get past him without a screen.  By covering Bosh and changing defense, Leonard can pass the ball in the middle and shoot without interference.  Barkley praised: "Both the Knicks' two swingmen are over two meters tall and have super long wingspans. They are good at preventing breakthroughs and interfering with shots. Zhou Xuan is also good at preventing breakthroughs. Their perimeter defense this year is airtight."  Smith said: "The Knicks' offense is not bad this year, and their defense is stronger. You can see the signs in the preseason. The Nets are in trouble today." In the first quarter, the Knicks led 3-19 by 6 points.  All the stars of the Nets were misfired. Only Joe Johnson scored 7 points and performed well.  Deron and Monroe both scored one point.  In order for Guy to perform better, Zhou Xuan did not focus on breakthroughs, but only waited for the three-point opportunity by passing the ball from the outside. This ensured the speed of returning to defense.  In the second quarter, Nash and Bledsoe, who had been separated for a long time, formed a double guard, Kyle Anderson at No. 1, and Anderson in the inside teamed with O'Neal.  This lineup has super mobility.  One of Kyle and Nash launched a counterattack with a pass from the backcourt. Bledsoe came down quickly. Although the defense became worse, the offense was extremely sharp.  Defense mainly relies on compression.  NetworkAll the money was spent on the starting lineup, and the only players on the bench were Jack and Thornton.  Thornton originally signed a big contract with the Kings, but it was reduced to a garbage contract. Last season, his shooting percentage was less than 40% and his three-point shooting percentage was 3 He was too short to play the 2nd position and had no assists at the 1st position.  Bledsoe also has this characteristic. The contract is only half of Thornton's previous one, which is considered a great value.  Nash only played 6 minutes before taking a break. Zhou Xuan returned to the court and formed a double guard with Bledsoe. Carter also got a chance to play small forward. Anderson at No. 4 was paired with Bosh, firmly controlling the situation.  Richard Jefferson and Gordon are in terrible shape and can only be marginal players on the team. Aldridge has no chance to play and cannot be included in the roster. Just look at this alone to know how terrifying the depth of the Knicks' lineup is.  Bledsoe is responsible for misplaced breakthroughs and strong attacks. Lopez is too slow, which always allows him to break through easily, attracting defense and then one point outside. Zhou Xuan, Carter, and Anderson all made three-pointers.  The defense against Anthony was a bit poor. D'Antoni quickly replaced the bloody cloth and replaced him with Leonard, which made up for the defensive loopholes.  The Knicks led by points at halftime.  The Nets couldn¡¯t slow down in the second half.  Deron thought that with Monroe playing pick-and-rolls, he would be able to regain the Jazz feeling, but that's not the case at all.  The Knicks defend the pick-and-roll better than they did last season.  The Nets let Anthony play the 4th position to enhance mobility and use small-ball tactics.  The Knicks immediately asked Gay to serve as a guest at the 4th position, leaving only Bosh at center, who is also very fast.  Zhou Xuan¡¯s first pass counterattack was much better than Delong¡¯s, and the point difference became wider and wider.  Gay played the 4th position, but Deron was more entangled and had difficulty breaking through. At the end of the three quarters, he scored 4 points and 6 assists.  The game entered garbage time early. The five-person bench lineup of Richard Jefferson, Carter, Nash, O'Neal Jr., and Anderson continued to attack. Although the Nets' bench was young, they could not beat them.  If these four veterans form a team at their peak, they can definitely compete for the championship. Anderson is suitable for emptying the inside and receiving two passes in the final quarter to hit two three-pointers, and his performance is even more eye-catching.  The speed is slower and the strength is weaker. The only thing Nash has not changed is his passing awareness in run and gun tactics. He can still send out assists.  The Knicks won the derby with a 2,637-point advantage.  Nash only played 18 minutes and scored 6 points, which was very efficient.  Zhou Xuan had 13 points, 14 assists and 1 steal in 2 minutes.  The two combined for more assists than the entire Nets team.  No one played more than 3 minutes, and ten people scored in double figures. The scoring points were so average that the Nets felt helpless.  They changed coaches three times in four years and still couldn't find a way to beat the Knicks.  Monroe had good numbers in his debut, 18 points and 2 rebounds.  However, he is completely unqualified in pick-and-roll defense. The position that suits him best is, after all, center rather than power forward. The Nets' hidden dangers began to show up in the first game.  It is impossible for the Twin Towers to break up immediately, and the Nets will have no chance this year.  Anthony is still the team's leading scorer, relying on individual singles rather than cooperation.  Joe Johnson is planning to change teams after his contract expires. He can no longer perform here.  Several major Knicks players attended the press conference.  In addition to interviewing Zhou Xuan, reporters also interviewed Nash and asked him to talk about the differences between the Knicks and the Lakers.  Nash lamented: "The thing I regret most in my life is joining the Lakers. I wasted three years in vain. I was very good in the Knicks, with a familiar offensive system and excellent teammates. I will adapt to the new role and try my best in the limited time."  This game I proved that I can still play.¡± The reporters took pictures together, there is news.  Howard, Nick Young, and Boozer were also interviewed and said they were very depressed staying in the Lakers.  Except for Gasol, almost no one has good things to say about the players who left the Lakers.  Bosh laughed and said: "It's too short, I mean, my playing time is too short. It's like this when playing against the Nets. I'm really worried that if we play like this for a season, my data will be very ugly. This year, I  In the contract year, I originally wanted to improve my statistics." Gay, who scored 18 points in the game, was very excited. He made 14 shots and 2 of 2 free throws. Gay said: "This is what I want.  In the game, I finally got a super strong team. This feeling is great.¡± The reporter asked: ¡°Can you evaluate Zhou Xuan?¡± ¡°He is great. I think this is the only way to describe him. Everything depends on him.  In the locker room, he said to me: 'Rudy, in the first quarter, you are the main attack, I will pass the ball to you where you feel comfortable, you have to concentrate on catching the ball, don't let us down.  I believe you can do it. He didn't make much breakthrough in the first half, which made room for me. I no longer have to create opportunities like before." Zhou Xuan said: "I think we are invincible this season.  I think it's totally possible to hit the regular season record again. As long as the lineup is intact and there are no injuries, I also want to hit the Lakers' 33-game winning streak. Maybe it's early? I've already said it anyway.  Let¡¯s wait and see the good show.¡±
