Chapter 661
With little effort, Mobley easily broke through Dampoter's defense and then smashed the ball into the basket with a slam dunk against the sky
After the goal, Mobley looked very excited, ran a few steps and hit him the chest, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and howl after landing.
Lamar looked at Mobley's excited appearance, but there was a sneer in his heart: "It's too early to be complacent!"
Mobley's goal didn't bother the Knicks in the slightest, as the ball was sent out quickly and after a few passes it found in Lamar's hands.
Facing the name of the drug, Lamar looked like he was too lazy to make a feint, and jumped directly to throw the ball.
"Huh!" Lamar looked at the stunned drug name in front of him after the goal, and there was a slight hint of provocation in his tone: "Welcome to the NBA, rookie!"
In the face of such provocations, drug names are naturally commonplace! Since joining the NBA, it is not the first time he has encountered such ridicule. When the Rockets attacked again, the name of the drug still mentioned the outside, and it looked like it was going to block Mobley again.
Houston kept an eye on it this time and didn't push too hard. But he still underestimated Team Rocket's overall tactics. This time it was the name of the medicine who caught the ball, and Mobley moved towards the bottom corner of the left three-point line.
Houston would have to get through the basket if he wanted to keep up, and any Rockets player would get in the way of him.
Really!
As Mobley moved into position, Yamana took advantage of his height and threw the ball over with ease. Mobley received the ball and immediately accelerated, heading straight to the basket.
"Don't think about scoring!" shouted Dampott, and rushed over with his teeth and claws.
Mobley, who was several heavyweights older than him, was not alarmed, and the short pull ball followed by a light turn and went around Dampoter's side.
Then the old cat jumped up, leaned on Lamar in the air and turned around, made a small lever with his back to the basket, and gently threw the ball towards the back of his head.
The basketball went a few laps around the hoop and then went headlong into the net.
Although the Rockets made two attacks in a row, their head coach Tomjanovic did not mean to relax at all, standing on the sidelines with his shoulders crossed, still frowning tightly.
This tactic was not arranged by him. Even if the team finally defeats the Knicks, he will be happy and embarrassed at the same time. Because it would make Rudy feel like he has lost control of the team.
But at this time, Tomjanovic did not dare to call a timeout anyway, the team's morale finally recovered a little, and he didn't want to pour cold water on the team at this time.
Tomjanovic became a bitter melon face on the sidelines, and the Knicks players on the court were still relaxed although they were blown out twice in a row by the drug name and Mobley's flash of inspiration.
When it was the Knicks' turn to attack, Lamar ended the team's offense with a mid-range shot.
"Whew!" the basketball hit again. This is the sixth shot Lamar has made since he came back from a pause, and although the ultra-high shooting percentage cannot have any impact on the Rockets for the time being under the combination of Yaoming and Mobley, the players of the Rockets have been terrified when they look at Lamar, and they have obviously felt powerless in the face of such an opponent.
Switching offense and defense, this time the Rockets wanted to repeat the old trick - Mobley controlled the ball and blocked the drug name, but at the same time as the drug name moved, Lamar had already noticed him, and secretly moved in the direction of the basket with small steps.
When the name of the drug was in a good position, Mobley really pulled the ball sideways again, and this time Houston did not choose to follow, but decisively switched defenses with Darmster. Relying on Dampoter's delay, Houston turned and turned in the opposite direction, hitting the basket like Mobley.
Although Mobley was taken aback by Houston's sudden move, he was already ready to send it at this time.
"Ahh
Seeing that Houston's hand was about to hit Mobley's basketball, Mobley had a mysterious smile on his face: "You've been fooled!"
I saw Mobley tuck the ball in the belly, dodge Houston's big hand and rise again, and gently throw the ball to the basket.
Just when Mobley thought the ball was about to win, a cold voice rang out from behind his head.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Lamar said coldly behind Mobley, and then slapped the basketball under Mobley's horrified gaze.
"Smack!"
Lamar's basketball flew to Dampot's hand, and the Haitian didn't stop when he got the basketball, raised the basketball with both hands, shouted "fast break" and threw the ball to Billups, who was waiting on the outside.
A powerful block made Mobley stunned. was originally full of confidence for a layup, but I didn't expect it to be blocked by Lamar. This gave the old cat's self-confidence a strong blow. He was not a strong-willed player in the first place, and now that he was humiliated by Lamar in front of so many Houston fans, his heart was already gray at the moment.
Houston fans were also stunned, they never expected that Mobley would be so embarrassed tonight when he scored on the court. Being chased up from behind and blocked was a bigger blow than those face-to-face battles, and for a moment there was a dead silence in the Toyota Center.
When the Knicks launched a fast break, most of the Rockets players didn't react, and they all stood in place. Even with two players, Jackson and David Wesley, trying to defend back, their resistance was vulnerable to the Knicks' five-on-the-road fast break.
Once the Knicks entered the state, they are now really crazy. The power of the Knicks is phenomenal now, with Sean Battier and Houston separated and reunited, with Billups in control, Lamar in the center, and Dampoter in the back. Once this offensive formation is deployed, even if it encounters the San Antonio Spurs, who have the strongest defense in the league, the opponent will have to surrender and admit defeat.
Within a few breaths, the Knicks were already pushing the ball to the frontcourt. After several passes in a row, the basketball was in Lamar's hands again. Lamar could have scored points right under the basket, but this time he didn't want the offense to end there.
Lamar's upper body kept shaking, making Jackson, who was defending in front of him, a little flustered, and could only keep retreating, losing his position inch by inch.
Suddenly, Lamar jumped lightly on his toes, curled up in the air and spun his back to the basket, leaning on Jackson's top and throwing the ball at Dampoter, who was plugged in the back row.
The moment Dampoter received the ball, he jumped up and held the basketball high with one arm, and smashed the ball into the basket between Lamar and Battier.
"Boom!"
"Ahh
After the goal, Damppot dragged the basket and roared loudly and did several pull-ups in a row, and his strong arms made Houston fans close to the court feel a strong sense of pressure.
Drexler, the NBA celebrity glider sitting in the commentary seat, couldn't help but sigh when he saw this situation: "Today, the Knicks did teach the Rockets a good lesson, and Mr. Rudy's basketball is too conformist." What the Rockets are missing most now is the excitement that the Knicks are showing right now. Times are progressing, and tactics should change at any time, but Rudy now seems to be still quiet in the glory of the Rockets' two-game winning streak. Compared to Van Gundy's changes in recent years, Rudy is too conservative. We can't belittle the strength of the Rockets, the name of the drug, Francis, Mobley, Jackson are all All-Star level players, and we are no worse than the Knicks in other positions, but we can only be led by the nose by the Knicks in this game. ”
Drexler was pessimistic, but that was exactly what was going on the pitch at this time. After Mobley was slapped hard by Lamar, the guy completely wilted. Among them, the old cat struggled, and of course he also had the idea of becoming a hero, but Lamar didn't give him such a chance at all.
The Knicks, who are significantly more athletic, were in complete control of the game, and the Rockets never took the lead except for a three-pointer from Mobley at the start of the game.
The best thing the Rockets did was the name of the drug. In Lamar's memory, Yao Ming's rookie season was good, but it didn't seem to be so great. Obviously, the fate of the name of the medicine has also changed with his little butterfly. At this time, the name of the drug obviously has the qualifications to compete with Stoudemire for the best rookie, but his efforts alone will not be able to save the fate of the Rockets' defeat in any way.
What surprised Lamar the most now was that Dampotter didn't fall behind in this matchup with the name of the drug. Although he was completely famous on the offensive end, the Haitian still showed his strength on the defensive end, and made the little giant of the East disgraced by several consecutive blocks.
Now Lamar also has to sigh that since his rebirth, the biggest change by his little butterfly is not Shaq nor Billups, but the second commodity of Darms! The Haitian, who was supposed to be unknown in the 76ers and still struggling for the starting position on the bench, has now shown the potential to become a top defensive center.
"Well done, Samuel! Keep putting pressure on them, don't let them get over!"
Lamar stood in the middle circle and clapped his hands loudly to cheer his teammates on. At this point, the score on the field was already obvious.
