Chapter 853

Since the opponent's mid-range shooting is unreliable, then Sprewell naturally doesn't have to press too hard, and now his main task has become to prevent Wade's breakthrough and passing, and then close defense is obviously no longer possible.

"That's the idea! And I'm doing pretty well, aren't I?"

"That's just you idiot, do you think you can stop me?" Wade's doll face showed a rare disdainful smile, and his eyes sparkled.

Suddenly, Wade made a hit pass, and Sprewell was startled.

The situation on the field changed abruptly, and after winning the ball, Arenas shook off Jaric and went straight inside. Sprewell leaned sideways, ready to block Arenas. Just as Sprewell moved, he suddenly felt a little bad in his heart.

Arenas, who jumped up, suddenly threw the ball behind him, just in time to find Wade's position. When he received the ball, there were no defenders within 1.5 meters of Wade, so Wade just didn't want to shoot, not to mention that he was also an offensive player.

Everything then seemed simple and fluid, jumping, aiming, raising the ball with the right arm, flicking the fingers, and throwing the basketball lightly.

"What?"

Wade made a three-point shot, and Sprewell, who was back to defense, only felt the basketball fly over his head, followed the direction of the basketball sliding, and then fell into the net with the basketball.

Middle!

At this time, even Lamar and the others who were sitting on the bench were a little dumbfounded, was it shit luck or was it very accurate? But when he usually trained, Wade, the little guy, didn't show his talent in this area?

Devon Wade was the only one in the audience who still looked relaxed, shook his hand comfortably, and raised his right hand as if he were showing off.

"That's the price you pay for despising me!"

After making this long-range three-pointer, Wade went straight to the sidelines. He really needs to take a break from the regular season yet, and although he hasn't felt the slightest bit of fatigue so far, most of the time he's jogging back and forth on the court, but the next game will be more intense, and if he still wants to share the pressure next to Lamar, he will have to conserve his strength.

Van Gundy was also very understanding, immediately bringing on John Salmons to replace Wade. For this year's Tanhua show, he never minded paying more attention to it.

"Well done! You're scaring all those guys. Lamar smiled and patted Devin Wade on the back: "Devin, if you keep up to this three, I can guarantee that no one can replace you in the starting position."

Wade scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, he also knew his level of long-range shooting. However, he also seemed very satisfied with his performance tonight, although his current starting position is not untouchable, but he is still very satisfied to be able to share the burden with Lamaldo.

"It's up to you next. Pay attention to that ugly bastard on the field, don't despise him because of his age, Gilbert can't stop him alone!" Lamar didn't forget to remind Salmons when Van Gundy was laying out his tactics.

So far in the game, Kassel has provided five assists and scored eight points. If it continues like this, it won't be easy, Salmons can use his abundant physical strength to carry out full-court pressing and control the alien who is about to go crazy!

"Well done, how are you feeling now?" Van Gundy was most concerned about Lamar's body. He has seen clearly from the last game against the Celtics that the Knicks' current lineup is not flawless, at least until Devin Wade has no ability to control the overall situation, the only people that the Knicks can rely on on on the court are Lamar and Billups.

When these two guys are on the court at the same time, the Knicks are a strong contender for the championship. Without one of the two, the Knicks' strength will inevitably decline, and at most they will be a playoff team.

Lamar clenched his left fist hard, and the pain that pierced his heart made him gasp: "It's not good! You know I'm a left-hander, and every time I shoot, I can't help but be affected." ”

Listening to Lamar's words, Van Gundy's heart was immediately clouded, and this was the last thing he wanted to hear now: "What now? Can you still hold on?"

From the perspective of Lamar's friends, Van Gundy definitely does not want Lamar to take risks in this situation, and he hopes that Lamar can recuperate from his injury with peace of mind and choose to come back when he is in the best physical condition. But as the head coach of the Knicks, he has to think about the team's results, and he knows that the Knicks are absolutely inseparable from Lamar.

Van Gundy knew exactly what Lamar was thinking, and he didn't want to leave halfway through. If tonight's opponent is a bad team, it would be fine, but a strong team like the Timberwolves, play less than once, who knows how long the peak of the three-headed monster will last? Maybe next summer, Sprewell will fall out with the Timberwolves management because of salary issues, and then the three-headed monster will be disbanded, and Lamar will really have to wait until three years later if he wants to find a few decent opponents.

"It's okay!" Lamar said, looking at his opponent sitting behind the bench, "Sir, please help me fix my little finger and ring finger, it may be better." Lamar was silent for a while, and suddenly thought of a move by Kobe Bryant in his previous life, when Kobe Bryant was much more injured than himself, with a broken little finger, but this guy did not have surgery, but relied on the pre-game bandage to hold on until the end of the season.

"But if you fix your fingers, won't it affect your shot?" Although the team doctor was full of doubts, he still dutifully opened his medical box and took out the bandage to help Lamar bandage.

The team doctor doesn't want Lamar to play again, although the accidental injury is not serious, but it is very troublesome to get better, and it is injured on the finger, which basketball player does not need to play with hands?

At the time of the bandaging, the first quarter of the game ended, and the two sides finally fought 25:24, and the Knicks' bench players resisted to the death, not only recovering the points behind, but also withstanding the Timberwolves' counterattack to maintain a one-point lead.

After the break, the game resumed.

The Knicks made a change here, with Battier coming on in place of Simmons. Simmons and Sprewell had a violent collision in the game just now and needed to take a break. In addition, Lamar, Hilario and Billups were also substituted.

As for the Timberwolves, Garnett was substituted again, and this summer because of the heavy introduction of the three-headed monster, the Timberwolves did not make more adequate additions on the bench, and their bench strength is quite weak compared to the Knicks.

"Why does that guy look like he can't die?

Watching Lamar's bandaged left hand slap the ball up and down, Kevin Garnett felt his head grow for a while, but he didn't dare to be careless, and followed Lamar's side tightly with small steps.

The fingers are fixed, and although there will be some inconvenience when dribbling the ball, at least there is no big problem with breaking through with the ball. Lamar is ready for this game and the Timberwolves, since he can't kill this group of huskies in one go, then let's grind these second-hand goods to the point of impatience.

Lamar leisurely carries the ball on the outside, neither breaking or shooting, nor passing, he is like a walk, easily playing Kevin Garnett in front of him.

"Bastard, come on, do you want to do this until the end of the game?" Kevin Garnett couldn't help but be angry when he saw that Lamar didn't pay attention to him at all, and the frequency of his movements increased, and he kept trying to break the ball. But the basketball is in Lamar's hands, and as long as nothing happens, it is very difficult to break the ball.

"Attack?" Lamar's momentum suddenly changed as he dribbled the ball, and he glanced at Garnett with sharp eyes, which made the wolf king in front of him, who did not change his face in the face of a powerful opponent, couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

"As you wish!"

As soon as Lamar's words fell, he suddenly activated. After the basketball finished changing hands behind him, Lamar lunged to the left.

Garnett's reaction was not slow, and his body quickly leaned in the direction of Lamar's breakthrough, blocking Lamar's forward line almost immediately. But if Lamar had been defended like this, Lamar would not have been Lamar.

I saw that the corners of Lamar's mouth concealed a sneer of conspiracy, and the body that was originally breaking through to the left was pulled back by him, and then squatted sharply, his knees were almost on the ground, and his left hand was lightly hooked, and the sharp pain from his little finger made Lamar's spirit can't help but be lifted, and the basketball bounced on the ground and reached his right hand.

This sudden change caught Garnett a little off guard, but he still reacted immediately, and as soon as his hand was on the ground, he wanted to pounce on it to defend, and suddenly the soles of his feet slipped, and then he was on the ground.

At this time, Lamar had already taken advantage of this opportunity to complete the final shooting preparations. At this point, Lamar was no longer in front of any defenders, and the basketball slid through an arc in the air and hit the basket accurately.

Van Gundy on the sidelines couldn't help jumping at this time, such a scene was too familiar to him.

"Didn't Michael Jordan play Hassel to kill the Utah Jazz with a sentence back then?" Van Gundy's mind suddenly popped up with such a strange thought: "Is this the reincarnation of fate?"

But soon Van Gundy was amused by his strange idea, Jordan is great, he brought the NBA to the world, but Lamar must be greater, and his future achievements will definitely be more brilliant than Jordan.
