"Damn Duke dog, I'll break your dirty teeth sooner or later!"

As Dugg walked towards Kyle Lowry, Ron Artest muttered behind his back with a grim face.

But as soon as the words fell, he received an angry look from Milicich, and the kid actually said viciously and condescendingly: "Do you want to fight? ”

Ron Artest also stared at the moment.

He was about to do a little bit of toughness against this white-skinned foreign kid.

"Don't pretend to be tough in front of me, I was there when you were beaten up in the palace of Auburn Hills." Milichyc's indifferent voice floated: "If you dare to be disrespectful to Snoopy, I will let you taste the fist again!" ”

As he spoke, he walked to the center line and stood opposite Yao Shu.

Ron Artest was furious.

The Auburn Hills Palace incident was a turning point in his career, and he had the opportunity to build a legendary career after winning two consecutive Defensive Player of the Year awards. But the mass brawl destroyed most of his career, and he was banned for 73 games, with direct financial losses of up to $5 million and countless indirect financial losses. And, most importantly... After that incident, he was considered the second pseudo-tough guy in the league!

Now, Milicic brings up the old story, how can Ron Artest not be angry?

But he could only be angry, and he didn't dare to swing his fist again. Because he knows how serious the consequences will be.

Backbite!

The whistle blows!

The referee throws the basketball high into the air.

Milicic was the first to racket Dug.

Dugg held the ball and pushed forward, his feet were extremely fast, Ron Artest hurried forward to defend, he tried to block Duge's footsteps outside the three-point line, so as to give Yao Shu more time to fall into the defensive position!

But... Just as he stopped to work on the stoppage, Dugg suddenly leaned over and changed direction, and a quick crossover immediately made Artest's defense a little lost, but he quickly adjusted and continued to chase forward. However, by this time Milicic had already come up from behind...... Burst!

He blocked Artest's defense, while Dugg took advantage of the situation to get into the paint, and in the face of Karlandri's supplement, he dummered the defense with a false shot, and then scored a backhand layup!

Dugg's agility and precision in breakthrough technology greatly surpassed the level of the last time he was aligned with the rocket.

The last time they faced off, Duge's upper body was stiff like a steel bar, but now he was able to fully bow down and changed more in between movements. Although there is a distance from the league's top breakthrough masters, under the cover of his teammates, Artest wants to deal with him as before, and there is no longer any possibility!

In fact, Dugg doesn't need to play like he did in the last game.

So, after scoring the goal, he held out two fingers straight to Artest.

And, tell him very simply. "There are 18 points left."

Last time, Dugg proved to the world on Ron Artest: I have the ability to score.

Tonight, Dugg wants to prove in him that I don't just have the ability to score, I'm going to be a scorer!

"Humph! That's the end of your score!! ”

Ron Artest's tone was still tough.

Duge didn't bother with him, he just felt that Artest's luck was a little bad, and he could catch up with himself who had completed the upgrade every time.

Swish!

Yao Shu finished turning and hooking hands in the paint area...... When Yao Shu is full of physical strength, he is the number one center forward in the world today! Milicic wants to limit him with a single defense, and it is almost impossible!

Yibian fought again, and Duge accelerated his speed to drive the run.

Ron Artest chased after him, and Dugg quickly completed the block with David Lee in the high post... However, Artest did not switch defenses after the pick-and-roll, which made Landry and Artest follow in Dug's footsteps.

When both defenders were pulled by himself, Dugg made a quick break and passed the ball straight to David Lee before they could finish the pack.

David Lee shoots with just open hands...... Swish!

High jump shot scored.

"If Artest only does man-to-man defense, then it will inevitably cause the Rockets to leak on defense!" Earl Johnson hit the nail on the head.

In fact, the last time the two met, Artest wavered on team victory and personal honor, and finally lost his wife and soldiers. So this time, Artest has a firm strategy, that is, to strictly guard Dug!

This strategy gave the Knicks a five-minute buffer period.

In these 5 minutes, taking advantage of Artest's man-to-man defense, Dug Lian made a wonderful pass to help the team bite the score tightly at 14:15.

However, when Adelman replaced Artest with Battier in the fifth minute, the situation immediately became precarious.

The Rockets' 8-1 record after the All-Star break is due to the fact that their offensive and defensive systems are becoming more resilient...... After losing Tracy Maddy, the absolute core of the perimeter, they played better overall basketball.

Sean Battier's strategy of defending Dugg is to shoot without bursting, which makes it less likely that Dug will use the breakthrough to create space. With Dugg unwilling to expose his shooting ability in advance, the Knicks' offense was completely dumb.

This is... The biggest drawback of the Knicks' starting lineup is that they don't have a second point of attack.

Moreover, there is a serious lack of defensive experience, especially for the two forward lines.

Therefore, within 3 minutes, the Rockets played a wave of 9:0 small climaxes, and the Knicks were completely powerless to parry!

Dugg had to ask for a timeout in advance.

In fact, wait another 1 and a half minutes and the Knicks will automatically enter rotation time. When the time comes, Isaiah Thomas will take over the game directly.

However, Dugg did not wait for it to arrive. He walked to the bench and shouted, "We need to change, we need to defend on the wing, we need a second point of attack!" ”

D'Antoni pursed his lips, he could understand Snoopy's complaints. Actually, he agrees with Dugg's idea, but... It's hard for a good woman to cook without rice! Now the players are divided into two factions, and they can't command Thomas's players at all. Even if they are arranged, they will show a posture of 'not working'.

While he doesn't take a stand.

Dugg spoke directly: "Jeffries, Stephen Marbury, you replace Gallinari and Chris Dujon." ”

Yes?

Jeffries looked at Dugg with some surprise.

Isaiah Thomas and D'Antoni were also surprised, they didn't expect Dug to go straight past the head coach to make personnel arrangements.

"We can't continue to fail like this, we have managed to get the attention of others, and we must not become the laughing stock of everyone again for internal reasons. And, with the playoffs just around the corner, we don't have many opportunities left. ”

Dugg clenched his fists and continued: "Just start tonight, sprint!" ”

His voice had just fallen. Marbury quickly chimed in: "Snoopy, you're right, no one wants to be the laughing stock of other people's casual ridicule. For the sake of dignity, I will rush with you. ”

Marbury's echo immediately took the atmosphere to another angle, and the team began to think... Are we really going to continue to be the object of ridicule and contempt?

Thomas and D'Antoni did not suspect him, but they were the passionate head of Dugg's youth, and did not pursue his behavior as a substitute.

At this time, tick!

The whistle blows and the game continues.

Dugg walked onto the court with Milicic, Stephen Marbury, Jeffries and David Lee.

On serve, Marbury winked at Dugg, and he thought he had exploded his acting skills and had the best assist of his career.

Dugg smiled slightly.

Then his face turned serious again, and the next moment would be crucial.

The blood has been spilled, and if the team does not get a substantial improvement, it will not only fail to inspire the trust of his teammates, but will only make the team more chaotic. To be honest, Dugg was also a little unsure.

At this time, Ron Artest, who had returned to the game, came again.

He came to Duge's side deliberately: "If I'm not mistaken, your score is still only 2 points, what about your arrogance? What about your pride? ”

"Well, you read that right." Dugg nodded: "Regarding my arrogance and pride, I think you will see them soon." ”

……

['A certain tease', because the child's hands were burned by boiling water at night, so he was busy for a long time, resulting in the update not being completed until three o'clock in the morning. I'm sorry. Fourth, let's postpone it until tomorrow. Tomorrow's separately counted. Sorry, sorry! 】
