Knicks in the transfer period did a big deal, the team determined cut Billups, ushered inside the gates Chandler. Idea is very simple, advance preparation before casting inside, only to be inside a fence on the other truss. However, Dec. 29, the Knicks to 78-92 loss to the Warriors game, Chandler played almost ridiculous performance, and tragic spike.

Spike Chandler who was truly famous, champion a decade ago parallel Kwame – Brown. Overall he only played 11 minutes and 40 seconds, but surrendered three points and 10 rebounds of the respondents, 21 minutes and 34 seconds with Chandler only get 2 points 3 rebounds per game compared to more than one two really strong point.

Speaking of Kwame Brown – this person really be a wonderful work of the league, we all know that he is mentally immature parallel attack is outrageous, but always finding a contract in the league. This year is no exception, where Brown groan from the Warriors a one-year $ 7 million of the total check.

How much money how much dry matter, Brown’s performance is not pit father, the first battle the Clippers he can only get 6 minutes 49 seconds, 1 minute 1 rebound is pretty excusable; Second World War and his playing time increased to 23 minutes 07 seconds, so the data up to five points, six rebounds and four steals. As a 12-foot-long people have been worthy of such a defense wage data. And to the game, Brown’s performance further, and completed the single-game rebounding in double data.

Fact that Brown is still Brown, III scene that illustrates the problem. He had the ball at the basket feint shot flashed swoop up on Stoudemire, but then take off the face of half empty basket, Brown shot just the right intensity is clearly not accurate, knock the ball in the basket around the neck. It can justifiably claim to be a mistake amateur level, but lack of parallel attack specifically champion though, attitudes are more than, then their off rebounds, and choose the most secure way to ball into the box.

This set of lenses, in fact, Brown’s performance in this game a microcosm. Expect him to contribute on the offensive end to do what has not, however, a positive attitude on the defensive end is very exciting. In addition to the audience off in 11 minutes and 40 seconds and 10 rebounds, the Warriors in the field when the margin of victory of Brown 9 points, can also explain the problem.

Chandler then contrast it? Overall only 21 minutes and 34 seconds to get 2 points, three rebounds and do not speak, he was still a scramble distal process received technical offense. The two games after the data is just tragic Chandler 4.5 points, three rebounds and three blocks … 58 million … do the authors of this great New York trading, they have to hit the hands of fragmentation?
