Chapter 536
Billups now has nothing to do but slow down Kidd's dribbling tempo, and there's nothing he can do about the league's No. 1 playmaker in his prime. Because Kidd can lead the team to create miracles not by his own offense, he relies on his passing, his organization, and his control of the team's offensive rhythm!
Suddenly, Kidd picked up the tempo of the dribble, and in a split second he swept past Billups and raced to the free-throw line.
The Knicks were visibly caught off guard by Kidd's sudden move. When did Ji Bu Attack have such a strong desire to score?
Houston, who was next to the free throw line, watched Kidd gradually approach the basket, and it was too late to make up for it.
"Don't want to score!" Seeing that he had become the last line of defense, Darmsport didn't care about Collins who was waiting behind him, waved his arms and jumped up.
A sneer crossed the corner of Kidd's mouth and jumped up as he pounced, and he was not afraid to face the Haitian, who was at least twice his size. Kidd stretched his arm lightly, and his right hand holding the ball reached forward and circled behind Dampot, and his palm was thrown upwards with agility.
Like Lamar's goal, the ball landed in the center of the hoop as accurately as an eye.
"Huh!"
Ball in!
Less than 10 seconds after Lamar took the lead, Kidd equalised.
There was jubilation in the stadium, and what could make them happier when the stars played their opponents?
However, their good mood did not last long, as Kidd unfortunately stepped on Darmster's boot with his foot when he landed, and then sat down on the court with a painful expression on his left ankle.
Looks like there's trouble!
"Jason!"
"Boss!"
The Nets players rushed up with a shout, and Kenyon Martin pushed Dampoter, who didn't understand what was going on, to the side.
"Bastard, what do you want to do?" Dampotter was instantly furious when he was pushed inexplicably, and just as he was about to find Jefferson to theorize, Lamar pulled him over in time.
"Samuel, don't be impulsive!"
"But!"
"I know!" Lamar shook his head and said, "I know you didn't do anything!"
As he spoke, he glanced back at Kidd, who was still lying on the ground, and beckoned his teammates to retreat to the rest area with a complicated expression.
Kidd on the ground was still trying his ankle, he wanted to get up and try, he wanted to continue fighting, his war with Lamar had just begun, how could it end now?
For a while, everyone's nerves were affected by the every move of their own star.
Eventually Kidd was able to stand up, but from the limping position he was walking in, Lamar knew that the guy's ankle was definitely twisted!
In the end, Kidd was helped back to the locker room by his teammates on the bench.
Kidd didn't say anything when he left, just his slightly trembling shoulders and the way he looked back at Lamar, as if to tell everyone that he would definitely come back!
"What a pity!" Lamar stared at the direction Kidd left with cold eyes, "I didn't expect such a thing to happen at the beginning of the game." This guy must be having a hard time now, right?"
Everyone who stands next to Lamar can clearly feel Lamar's loneliness at this moment. Lamar is also feeling the same way now, maybe he will be unwilling to leave this arena in the near future, rightγγγγγγ?
For a moment, Lamar even wanted to quit the game, but he quickly threw the ridiculous idea away.
It's a game, and there are so many teammates around him who trust him, and there are so many fans behind him who support him!
"Alright, let's get on the field!"
Lamar was the first to take to the court: Since Kidd is not here, then the rest of the New Jersey Nets will bear their wrath!
Jeff Van Gundy wanted to say something to Lamar. He saw just now that Kidd's exit seemed to have a great impact on Lamar! At this time, he didn't want to be stupid with the trump card in his hand, and then Lamar was fine, and Van Gundy felt a little relieved while being relieved.
Kidd's departure is definitely a huge blow to the New Jersey Nets, who are the top team in the league with Kidd, and without Kidd, their standards will drop by at least a few notches.
Nets coach Scott, who was still in high spirits a few minutes ago, seemed to have aged a lot at this time, and he was stunned for a long time before he sent a replacement.
"Cheer up, guys! Jason doesn't want to see the birds we look like now, the Knicks are nothing great! Guys, let's bring the win to Jason and trust him! He'll be back in the right moment and continue to lead us to the championship!"
Kenyon Martin hoped to boost the morale of the team, but his shouting was ineffective.
Kidd is to the Nets what Lamar is to the Knicks. Since Kidd joined the Nets this season, the Nets' dependence on Kidd has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of every Nets player. Once Kidd leaves, it's natural to panic.
This situation for the Nets this season has long been accustomed to it.
When Kidd was there, they were strong enough to sweep the entire league. But once Kidd is out of action, the Nets will immediately experience an inexplicable losing streak.
At this time, every Nets player has a blank face written on their faces, and they can't even organize the game without Kidd.
Scott shook his head again and again, but there was nothing he could do about it, and he could only hope that the players would adjust it themselves.
The game restarted, and the referee didn't forget the moment Kenyon Martin pushed Dampote just now. Taking advantage of the resumption of the game, the referee made up a technical foul in time.
Such a decision naturally drew a wave of boos from the fans.
Lamar walked to the free-throw line to take the basketball from the referee's hand and threw it without even thinking about it.
"Huh!"
"Huh!"
With both free throws, the Knicks took the lead again.
"Don't get too complacent, bastard!" Kenyon Martin whispered as Lamar passed him, "I'm sure I'll be able to defeat you Shaq-hugging scoundrel, you're not even as good as his little toes compared to Aaron." β
But although Martin's mad dog-like barking was fierce, Lamar didn't even look at him.
If it was Lamar when he first entered the league, I am afraid that he would have rushed to stage a reality show with Kenyon Martin at this time. If you don't crack the other party's brains, Lamar won't let go. But now Lamar has gradually matured, and he just ignores the clamor like Kenyon Martin in addition to feeling a little harsh.
Seeing Lamar ignore him, Kenyon Martin was even angrier! With a hideous face, he rushed to the Knicks' basket and leaned on Lamar and reached out for the ball.
"Come on, Kenyon, show that Lamar bastard your dunk!"
Kenyon, believe in yourself that you can do it!"
As soon as Kenyon Martin received the basketball, the atmosphere that the fans had just become silent because of Kidd's departure suddenly became active again, and the fans cheered loudly and looked forward to Kenyon Martin being able to give the Knicks a dismissal after Kidd left.
In general, Comrade Kenyon Martin was a young man with well-developed limbs and a simple mind. To put it bluntly, it's a bit crazy, and the fans are immediately excited as soon as they are on fire.
Kenyon Martin's sturdy ****** slammed into Lamar's abdomen without saying a word, and Lamar almost collapsed on the spot in pain.
Lamar was hit like this, and he was also angry: "Such a blatant foul is too much, is there such a pouting ass?"
Fortunately, Lamar was not carried away by the anger, and at the moment his legs exerted his strength, and his two feet seemed to grow on the floor.
Kenyon Martin bumped twice and saw that he couldn't hit the future, so he thought about using the pace taught by the inside coach to decide the winner.
For a while, Kenyon Martin began to shake left and right around Lamar, but unfortunately he didn't see any effect after shaking for a long time, but the appearance of being so nervous seemed to outsiders that he had a relapse of epilepsy!
"Bastard, hurry up and watch the time!"
Scott saw that Kenyon Martin's basketball IQ had suddenly dropped to zero, and shouted anxiously.
Just like a fishing boat that is lost in the sea sees a navigation light, Kenyon Martin is enlightened at once. The lost step is also getting more and more proficient, and he really found an opportunity in a hurry, and turned around to face the basket all of a sudden.
But at this time, Kenyon Martin, who was supposed to jump up and dunk, was suddenly stunned as if someone had clicked on the acupoint: the basketball was gone!
"Smack!"
The basketball is broken!
Lamar really didn't move, but don't forget that there was a Haitian next to Kenyon Martin! After seeing Lamar shake him, Kenyon Martin actually stood stupidly and didn't move, and Dambotton secretly stretched out his evil little hand - the monkey steals the peach!
In the eyes of Haitians, Kenyon Martin was clearly a real fool, and when he sent the ball to him, Dampot pulled it out without mercy.
"Attack!"
Billups shouted and rushed to the basketball as soon as possible, and Lamar, who had threatened Kenyon Martin with his eyes just now, also rushed to the half court of the Nets as if he had been electrified.
"Fool!
Seeing that his players were still stunned, Scott shouted angrily.
It's just too late. Billups grabbed the basketball and threw the ball directly into the Nets' half court with a force of his arms.
Alan Houston arrived, jumped up in the air to catch the basketball and tossed it lightly.
The ball goes in.
Houston seemed to be very excited after the goal, and it was rare to yell at the Nets fans!
I don't know if Houston smoked something, suddenly ran to the center of the court, glanced around at all the New Jersey fans on the scene, and actually made a throat cut.
The audience was in an uproar, followed by boos.
"Come on, come on bite me! Come on, you scum, Lamar isn't a match for the Knicks!" As if for catharsis, Houston shouted and shouted and provoked all New Jerseyians.
