Chapter 17: Confrontation (II)

Mo Xi held the ball, leaned back against Matt, under Iverson's "betrayal", the 76ers' interior knew that Mo Xi was good at using the ball to cut into the inside, Matt tried to open his body as much as possible, not to give Mo Xi a chance. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Mo Xi didn't particularly care, his attack would not become difficult to complete just because it was difficult to use the ball.

Mo Xi struggled to push back, but he didn't move as it should, but he just floated backwards with the power of the other party's shock, turned to the face frame, raised his hand and clicked, Matt didn't move, and then clicked, Matt still stared at Mo Xi's eyes, not moving at all.

Mo Xile was happy, took a shot, hit the board in the low position, and the ball went into the net.

Matt was also a little at a loss, didn't he say that this kid on the other side is always willing to shake people, why is this attack so simple, you are ready to come to a Thomas maneuver, I will throw it on the earth.

Iverson hid his face and cried on the sidelines, players with a high ball IQ may not have a particularly high IQ, and most players with a high IQ will not have a low ball quotient. But it's really rare to think about your teammates like this.

Coming to the 76ers on the offensive end.

Snow was also a little hesitant at this time, everyone didn't feel very good, in this case, the ball should theoretically be handed over to the team's big boss, but Iverson is now almost a magic barrier.

While Snow was hesitating, most of the offensive time had passed, and finally, with seven seconds left, he passed the ball diagonally to the winding Aaron McGee.

Aaron McGee actually didn't want to make a move at this time, and he didn't find the feel of it, but he asked him to come up just to do this, how could he do it without making a move?

"Bang"

The ball bounced out of the frame again. Mo Xi jumped up and picked up the rebound. However, the moment he landed, he only felt numb in his hand, and then looked, his hand was already empty, and when he looked up, Iverson saw the opportunity to snatch the basketball from Mo Xi's hand, and scored with a small hook under the basket.

Before leaving, Iverson arrogantly patted Moxi's ass and said, "This is just the beginning." ā€

Mo Xi shook his head and smiled, but there was a little fierce light in his eyes, and he ran towards the front.

Ward once again hoisted the ball to Moxie, and this time, the defender was replaced by Ratliff.

Yesterday was just a game with the current league's No. 1 interior defensive player, and today it is the turn of the second, which is really a bumpy road ahead.

Ratlif defends in a similar way to Mutombo, but the effect is surprisingly similar, that is, it is difficult for Moxi to make any effective offensive moves.

Mo Xi wanted to dribble inside and feint like he did in the last time he played Mutombo, but Ratlif moved much faster than Mutombo's feet. Ratliff didn't give Mo Xi a chance from beginning to end, and he kept stuck in Mo Xi's shot position.

Mo Xi sighed in his heart, he was really too immature.

At this time, Alan Houston went around to the left side of the free throw line, and seeing this, Mo Xi saw this, hurriedly passed the ball, and at the same time pulled himself out to prevent the attack for three seconds.

Alan Houston received the ball and shot it in the open space, and the graceful arc crossed the air and landed accurately into the basket. Alan Houston shook his fist and ran back to defend.

Ten years like a day, as pervasive as water, as ubiquitous as water, as indestructible as water, Knicks captain Alan Houston. When he is soft, he is a humble gentleman, and when he is hard, he is a ruthless assassin. (I found that other NBA shooters except Reggie Miller seem to be like this.) )

The 76ers ushered in a new round of offense that gave them a headache, but this time Snow gave up thinking and handed the ball directly to Iverson, anyway, you are the leader of the team. Iverson took the lead and squirted at Sprewell before passing Sprewell with his standard crossover.

Sprewell really didn't react this time, and was staggered by Iverson, making way for Iverson.

Iverson accelerates into the interior.

A hint of cruelty flashed across Sprewell's face, and he put his hand on the ground and rushed towards Iverson, grabbing the latter's clothes.

"Toot"

The whistle blows, Sprewell fouls, and Iverson goes to the free throw line.

Iverson is really unhappy now, he is not only low in shooting percentage at present, but also has a pitiful number of points, even if these two goals are scored, it is only 21 points, just in his early 20s, which is still a lot worse than what he boasted about at the beginning.

Iverson made both free throws, and it was the Knicks' turn to attack.

Mo Xi was not restrained by the last attack, he asked for the ball in the low post again, this time he didn't ask for it deeply, hoping to give himself a little more space.

Charlie Ward hits the ground and passes to Moxi.

Mo Xi received the ball, raised his hand to collect the ball in front of his chest, and leaned forward gently. Mo Xi's left foot is close between Ratliff's feet, and his lower body is against the opponent, this position is very suitable for Mo Xi's good at the ball splitting, but in the face of this top-level defensive inside, he is still a little frightened.

In the face of an inside line that is faster than himself, it is estimated that the face frame is of little use, and it is easy to be broken if one is not good.

Mo Xi's inspiration moved, his body turned back again, and his left foot tapped outward.

Ratliff raised an eyebrow, as if he had noticed something, and with a slight retraction, he stepped back.

I saw Mo Xi's right leg turning inward with a low step.

Ratliff's feet shifted, and he was stuck in the path of Moxi's progress.

How do you know that this trip is all Mo Xi's feints, Mo Xi's right foot is on the ground, the supporting foot is changed to the left foot, and he turns around and kills the inside line.

Ratliff hurried to catch up and defend, but unfortunately the first move was missed, and the defenders really couldn't take advantage of it. Mo Xi raised his hand and sent the ball into the basket with a light hook.

After the ball was scored, Mo Xi let out a sigh of relief. For him, it is really exhausting to play against such a top interior player, but there is a sense of joy after every success.

Turning back to the 76ers offensive end, at this time, there was less than half a quarter left in the game, and the score of the 76ers not only did not chase back, but opened up a little.

The 76ers' offense is getting more and more anxious, while the Knicks are dragging it out more and more slowly, and there is some meaning in the delay tactics.

Seeing such a scene, Larry Brown knew that the game was over, sighed, waved his hand, and replaced the main player.

Iverson walked off the field with an unwilling expression, Madison Square Garden, what a nasty place for him.

Van Gundy is happy that with one more win, the Knicks can make the playoffs, which is a satisfying achievement in such a dirty season. He praised everyone on the team, and as a reward, he put Mo Xi on the court, and by this time, Mo Xi had already scored eight points, and he was one goal away from scoring a double for the first time in his career.

Mo Xi, who returned to the court, did not get the opportunity to attack anytime soon, after all, the field is full of bench players now, and everyone needs to have a bright performance.

Finally, with a minute left, Mo Xi got a chance.

The Knicks' Rick Bronson missed a mid-range shot and picked up an offensive rebound on the 76ers' low interior head.

In the face of this game, which may be the last chance to make a shot, Mo cherishes it very much.

He first held the ball tightly, then went out of the three-second zone and began to play Matt Geiger with his back to the 76ers.

Matt was blown up by almost all the centers on the Knicks' side in this game, although he also scored 11 points, but the shooting rate was less than 40%, and the opposite side got a lot of points and rebounds. This time, he was going to try his best to defend the ball.

Mo Xi calmly dribbled the ball, and learned a lot of power skills in the martial arts hall and Mo Liyu, Matt's strength was not too strong, and Mo Xi planned to try himself.

Mo Xi took a deep breath, stood still under his feet, exerted force on his waist, and used the power skills of punching, twisted his body, leaned on his back, Matt was squeezed back four or five steps, and suddenly, Mo Xi's front was open.

However, for the first time, Mo Xi couldn't hold the ball in his hand and didn't hold it, so he had to hold it in his hands with both hands, and for a while, Mo Xi could only use a jump shot to solve the battle.

Mo Xi's jump shot has also been practiced for a long time, but it has never been used on the field, this is the first time.

The waist is straight, the legs are erect like two chopsticks, the arms are standard three 90, gently bounce up, and the arms are waved out at will, melodiously opened.

The beautiful arc crossed the sky like a rainbow over Madison Square Garden and fell into the basket.

"Brush"

Mo Xi turned around and waved his arm, the tenth tenth.

In the end, the Knicks won the game 85-70 and stepped half a foot on the threshold of the playoffs.

And Mo Xi has also done what most of the average good rookie do, and he was able to score a double-double after less than ten games, although he is obviously very wet.
