Chapter 852
Lamar shook his hand covertly, and then said with a sad face: "It's nothing! It hurt a little just now, 8 hours??? 8XS'COM WILL FEEL MUCH BETTER NEXT TIME I GET USED TO IT!"
The Knicks tee off, and this time the basketball went straight to Lamar.
Lamar ran to the front court with the ball, but before the half, Garnett pressed directly, one hand against Lamar and the other hand kept trying to break the ball.
Kevin Garnett has already seen from Lamar's shooting state just now that Lamar's hand injury is not healed. Now it is good to watch out for Lamar's right side, which makes Garnett's defense a lot easier, and naturally there are more opportunities.
Lamar also felt awkward when he dribbled, and even his dazzling dribbling was gone. Lamar now looks like a basketball beginner, and his movements are a little clumsy no matter how you look at it.
Kevin Garnett's eyes were on Lamar's every move, and although Garnett kept retreating, he never gave up on breaking the ball.
Finally, here's your chance!
Kevin Garnett deliberately pressed his body towards Lamar's left hand, and Lamar's movements immediately deformed under the pain, and at the same time, Garnett's hand also arrived.
Garnett seized the moment of Lamar's distraction and made a decisive shot and hit the basketball. The basketball immediately broke away from Lamar's grasp and flew to the side, and Garnett grabbed the ball in his hand with a pounce, and then pushed the ball forward to kill the Knicks' half.
"It's not that easy!"
was attacked by Kevin Garnett, Lamar was naturally extremely unhappy in his heart, and chased after Garnett with a yell. Although his fingers were sprained, there was no problem with his legs. Lamar, who started at full speed, swept the half court like a gust of wind, jumping up and down as Garnett took off, stretching out his arms and slapping the basketball.
Garnett also seems to have been prepared for Lamar's block, he has always been jealous of Lamar's speed advantage, seeing Lamar's recovery speed is so fast, he has been on guard when he takes off. ??? U?? 8 Xiao said?? .?U?8?X?S?'C?O?M saw that Lamar's hands were about to touch the basketball, and Garnett slammed his hands into his arms, and then turned them over again.
Garnett's plan is very good, and if things do turn out the way he thinks, the ball will undoubtedly be in the top 10 of the day. But he calculated everything, but he forgot about Lamar's terrifying ability to stay in the air. When Garnett lifted the ball again, he suddenly felt another more powerful force slap on the basketball, and the classic moment that could be included in the top 10 of the week was born.
"Bang!"
The basketball was pressed by Lamar on the rebound with a muffled sound, and after the two landed, Lamar grabbed the basketball in his hand before Garnett could react from the shock. Lamar then threw his right arm forward and found Billups in the bottom left corner of the three-point line, who hit a three-pointer with ease.
Garnett was really stunned this time, he couldn't understand how a person's athletic talent could be so strong. Speed, air, and strength are not top-notch, where is this still an earthling, and it is clearly an alien monster.
Looking at Lamar, who was surrounded by his teammates, Garnett's heart suddenly had a thought that made him feel scared: "This man may really be invincible!"
Kevin Garnett was looking at Lamar, and Lamar's eyes were pinpointing Garnett. The two made eye contact without speaking, and then Lamar raised his right hand and glared at Garnett like a demonstrative. Lamar's meaning is obvious, don't look at the inconvenience of the master's left hand, one right hand is enough to get you!
After the shock, the Timberwolves continued to attack, although the three-headed monster has not been formed for a long time, but it has already shown the demeanor of a strong team, and it can return to normal as quickly as possible under any circumstances. ?? U?8???? .?U?8XS`COM
The coordination between the Timberwolves' three-headed monsters is quite skillful, Kevin Garnett, who is eager to get back face, takes the ball to attack, Sprewell is responsible for clearing the inside, and Cassell is responsible for the outside containment.
Garnett turned his back to Lamar, shook his shoulders from side to side twice, and suddenly turned left, apparently trying to force Lamar's injured left side. Garnett, who was short, shook off Lamar in a few big strides with his strong body and good body reaction speed, and scored a backhand layup.
Garnett also looked quite excited after the goal, and yelled in the direction of Lamar. It's just a pity that he didn't see Lamar's lost look, Lamar didn't even bird him, and directly turned around and ran towards the Timberwolves' half.
The Knicks attacked again, and the basketball was still handed to Lamar by Billups. Lamar dribbled the ball with one hand, pressed his body against Garnett, and kept twisting his head to observe the situation on the field. Lamar now only has one hand at his disposal, and it would be unwise to choose singles in such a situation.
The other players of the Knicks naturally know Lamar's current situation, and they made a big mistake in the last game against the Boston Celtics, and now they are anxious to save their image in front of Lamar, and they are all working very hard.
Especially Hilario, whose performance in the last game has been regarded as a shame for his life. In this game, in order to consolidate his starting position in the team, he wanted to let Lamar know that only he was the best helper by Lamar's side.
So tonight, Hilario showed a positive performance, and he did not show mercy in the face of the block king Ratliff, and opened his arms to block Ratliff behind him, ready to pick up Lamar.
Lamar's pass arrived, and Hilario received the ball and slammed it backwards. Feeling that Hilario's defense was loose, he turned around and made a feint to deceive Ratliff and Sprewell, who was about to make up for the defense, and after Hilario flicked the ball to Devin Wade, who burst into the interior with both hands, and the latter scored with one hand.
"Well done!"
Lamar raised a healthy right hand and Devon Wade came with a high-five, and then clenched his left fist covertly. Even now, he didn't understand, how could Leon's little guy hurt him so badly? After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure it out, and he could only attribute it all to an accident.
The Timberwolves were unfazed by the holes in their defense, and their offense continued to unhurried. Garnett and Cassel, the three cores of the Timberwolves, are good at positional battles, and they don't need to compete with the Knicks, a team of crazy people.
Cassel handed the ball to Garnett, who asked for the ball, and it could be seen that he had been teased by Lamar just now, and the wolf king was very angry, and the consequences were serious. The unsolvable killer of turning around and throwing the basket turned out again, accurately hitting the center of gravity of the basket, and the basketball didn't even wipe the hoop, and went directly into the net.
Then the two sides tried to attack a few more times, and neither wanted to take the lead in taking out the hole cards. On the Knicks' side, because Lamar came into the game with an injury, he had to make some reservations, while the Timberwolves couldn't afford to lose this game, and they didn't dare to shake out the tricks at the bottom of the box until the critical moment.
When the game entered the last three minutes of the first quarter, the game between the two sides was only 21:18, and the Timberwolves led by three points. Lamar, the brightest star of the two teams, was very silent during this time, only contributing 3 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block.
People have already seen that Lamar does have a problem with his left hand, and it also affects his shooting touch, otherwise Lamar would not have been able to score just three points after playing for so long.
Although the team is ahead, the head coach of the Timberwolves, Sanders, is still a little anxious. Taking advantage of people's illness to kill people, this is what he wants to do most, but the team tried to suppress the opponent several times, but it was unsuccessful.
Sanders is not one of those people who came to see the excitement, he is well aware of Lamar's quality, and although he has not yet shown his devouring fangs, Lamar's influence on this game is everywhere. Don't look at Lamar's assists, although there are only 3 assists, there are a lot of indirect assists, which completely revitalizes the Knicks.
Recalling the Lamar who had just entered the league, Sanders once again felt the horror of Lamar as a player. He is no longer the stubborn madman who didn't care about it as long as he was hot, but he learned to think and improve himself in the grinding, and now Lamar is already a very good handsome talent.
Seeing that there was not much time left in the first quarter of the game, the head coaches of both sides tacitly chose to make substitutions. If there are any grievances, it is better to leave them to the second quarter to resolve, and the most important issue now is to ensure the physical strength of the main players.
On the Timberwolves' side, Jarridge and Joe Smith came on the court, replacing Garnett and Cassel, allowing Sprewell to take the rotation lineup to play with the Knicks on the court.
On the Knicks' side, it was more thorough, with Davis, Anderson, Simmons, and Arenas on the court at the same time, but Devin Wade, who had the least game experience, was put on the court by Van Gundy.
On the Knicks' offense, Wade dribbled the ball around the three-point line. Wade's opponent tonight, Sprewell, was also left on the court by Sanders, and it is clear that his main defensive task in this game is to keep an eye on Wade, and as long as Wade is still on the court, he will definitely not have a second of rest.
"Do you think I'm young, inexperienced, and easy to bully?" Wade said leisurely as he looked at Sprewell.
After nearly a quarter of the game, Sprewell also realized that Wade was so lost, and deliberately kept a certain distance from Wade at this time. Of course, Sprewell not only discovered this, but also found Wade's current shortcomings, that is, Wade's mid-range shooting is not stable enough.
