Chapter 65: You're Undercover, Aren't You?
"Hey, brother!" Chen Mo called out in Chinese. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info has not spoken Chinese for a long time, his Chinese is a little rusty, but the accent is still very standard. And Yi Jianlian obviously didn't expect Chen Mo to greet him, so he nodded subconsciously and didn't speak.
"What a stuffy gourd!" Chen Mo muttered, and didn't speak to Yi Jianlian again. For his compatriots who are also from China, Chen Mo put away his angry trash talk.
"The two \\ Chinese are in the opposite position, Reggie, do you say Yi will crush his little brother?" Kevin Harlan said.
"To be honest, I haven't seen anyone who is easily crushed, including those who are far less physically fit. Reggie Miller said.
"Why aren't you excited at all?"
"If you don't say it, I forget that Jack Chen is also Chinese. His personality and way of doing things are too different from Yao and Yi. I've played against Yao, and his mantra in the game was 'tomato'. And what about Jack Chen? I could see the drool spitting out of his trash talk when I sat in the commentary seat. ā
Reggie Miller and Kevin Harlan were discussing whether Chen Mo was more Chinese or American, while Yi Jianlian, who was going to attack after taking the ball, had already turned over and shot.
Chen Mo had made all the defensive preparations, he had already thought of everything in his mind, such as the top and bottom plates, and then shrugged his shoulders when Yi Jianlian turned around, and then he also considered whether to set up an elbow. After all, this is the first time that after learning from Stockton's experience, he has misplaced himself against a player who is much better than him.
How do you know that Chen Mo's defensive actions have not been made, and Yi Jianlian's offense has been hasty.
In the whole game, Chen Mo and Yi Jianlian were in the opposite position this time, and there was no chance of collision after that.
The two \\ Chinese, no communication and no entanglement on the field, the legendary hot Chinese derby, did not have any spark at all.
Yi Jianlian scored this time, but Chen Mo didn't seem to be playing like this at all. An interior player hits the opposing point guard in the low post and you don't run into the basket and choose an unsafe turnaround jumper?
There seems to be a bit of a problem with the Bobcats' lineup, and according to Sloan's idea, Augustin and Chen Mo do the pick-and-roll cooperation. The former seizes the space to break through, while the latter goes to the weak side to find space to shoot, or play an off-ball screen with Jackson, and then attack after receiving Augustin's break.
But when the ball reached Augustine's hand, it couldn't get out.
Chen Mo's vacant chances, Augustine couldn't send the ball out.
This may be a problem with coordination, and after playing several rounds in a row, it didn't have the effect Sloane wanted, and the old coach simply replaced Chen Mo and Jackson, and let Augustin play with a substitute.
After Chen Mo and Jackson went off the court, Augustin became the only point of possession on the court. His breakthrough is more lethal, and the ability of the old center Mohammed to grab rebounds and attack twice makes the Bobcats' bench lineup still quite threatening. As a well-known blue-collar worker in the league, Mohammed still has a consistent performance.
At the end of the first quarter, the Bobcats led by nine points, 33-24.
"We've all seen Sloan's transformation of Charlotte, and some have been successful and others have not been as good as they could have been. In general, though, he's left his stuff in Charlotte. ā
"The current Charlotte Bobcats are playing really well and I think they can at least finish in the top four in the East this season. If they continue to strengthen, they may be able to make a difference in the playoffs. ā
"Tactical things are considered by the coach, and if we continue to talk about this, do you think Sanders, who is sweating in a hurry, thinks we are going to steal his job?"
"Putting that aside, do you think something is going to happen to Jack and Gilbert next?"
"It's certain that none of them will get pregnant, and as for whether there will be friction, that's for sure. Gilbert wants to prove himself, while Jack wants to continue his crazy performance. Both of them are very strong second-round rookies, maybe they are born to have contradictions!"
Perhaps, as Reggie Miller said, Chen Mo and Arenas are second-round rookies who are in the limelight, and the other is an old All-Star who wants to return to the top, and these two are opposite players, so friction will inevitably continue.
In the second quarter of the game, the two of them were substituted almost at the same time. As soon as he got on the court, Arenas had to play Chen Mo with the ball.
Chen Mo immediately signaled to his teammates not to assist in defense, and he wanted to continue to fight with this old guy.
Arenas pressed into the horns, twisted his ass twice and turned the jumper after carrying the basket.
With the crisp sound of striking iron, Chen Mo mocked, "Are you our undercover agent?" ā
After the Bobcats were controlled by Chen Mo, their offense became smoother, and the score gap that had been gradually narrowed was widened again.
The Wizards didn't dare to send their two-point guard combination anymore, and Chen's ability to break through caught Sanders by surprise. And once their dual-point guard combination can't burst out and cause damage, it's almost useless. However, even if they increased their height, they still couldn't prevent the score difference from widening little by little.
Yi Jianlian has been playing for a long time today, and in this team plagued by injuries, Yi Jianlian is an important force on the bench. His height and athleticism are a great addition to the Wizards.
Regarding Yi Jianlian's situation, Chen Mo knows a little bit. After all, there was a lot of news about Yi Jianlian before, and his news has become less recently, and Chen Mo didn't know about it, so he didn't know that he had become a wizard. Chen Mo always thought that he had returned to China.
Now in Washington, it may be the last chance for the Chinese power forward, and if he can't seize this opportunity, he may not have any hope of staying in the NBA.
By the end of the game, the seats were much empty. It was clear that the home team's performance left the fans very unhappy.
With a score of 98-76 on the scoreboard, the game has entered garbage time.
Washington's once-rising hope general, Arenas, singled out Chen Mo 14 times. In addition to scoring a goal in the opening game, he also made a big three-pointer as the game was about to enter garbage time. The remaining 12 shots were all missed. Among them, there was also a humiliating big hat slapped by Chen Mo.
Chen Mo, who scored 24 points and 14 assists in the whole game, was already sitting off the court to rest. In this game, he gained a relatively large amount, and Arenas gave him 14 heads-up with face-to-face 14 times, allowing him to brush up on an experience.
And let the general shoot only 2 of 14, and cut down 5 points in the game. Chen Mo also slapped Arenas in the face hard, and the arrogant Arenas at the beginning couldn't even spew trash talk in the second half.
In the end, Charlotte Bobcats won 106-89, giving veteran coach Jerry Sloan his first victory since taking office.
