Chapter 53: Don't dare to mess with!
Seattle, Capital Hill Villas.
"Joe is playing!" Erin looked at George's figure on the TV screen, and her face couldn't hide her joy.
Since George was still on the bench in the team, Irene was very excited every time George was sent on the pitch.
However, because of these two games, George almost fought with others in every game, so when George appeared now, Erin's mood was not only excited, but also worried.
"Alas, I hope my stupid brother won't help his teammates anymore, he may hurt himself for some general friendship, it's not worth it." Erin pouted, picked up a pillow on the couch and hugged it in her arms.
Byron was also watching live TV with Erin at this time, and he knew that George was doing this to help the team, but he also felt that George was sacrificing too much.
Byron didn't reply, and while looking at the TV screen, he went to take the coffee cup on the table in front of him, but when he took the coffee cup, he didn't hold it steady, and the cup fell out of his hand instantly.
Bang.
The cup lands on the milky carpet and is quickly stained tan by the coffee.
"Daddy......" Erin looked at Byron in surprise, and in her mind, this was the first time she had seen her father smash a cup.
……
Home of the New York Knicks.
"Mike George! Come on buddy! Show up the fighting spirit of your previous games! ”
"Best Rookie! Let the Celtic Big Four remember your name! ”
Recently, George's reputation in New York has increased a lot, on the one hand, his strength, on the other hand, he dares to stand up for his teammates, before, but no NBA rookie dared to stand up for his predecessors, generally the seniors protect the rookies, to George, it turned around.
"That's the undrafted one." Paul Pierce and the others also looked at George, and they naturally heard George's name.
O'Neal pouted and smiled: "I heard that he wants to be the 'big brother' of the Knicks, and he will be the first to stand up and help when his teammates have an accident, and in the past two games, he has taught Mike Beasley and Monta Ellis lessons one after another." ”
Kevin Garnett also chuckled: "The current rookie can really do anything ridiculous in order to be famous and stay on the team." ”
Pierce, O'Neill, Garnett, all three of them looked at George with great contempt, and in their opinion, George was a grandstanding clown.
Weak people don't have the right to stand up and be heroes, and George is clearly in that category by them.
Due to George's enthusiastic performance in recent games, coupled with today's opponent being the Celtics with a luxurious lineup, as soon as George appeared on the stage, the number of people in the live broadcast room has exceeded 500, which is also the highest value since George's broadcast.
"Come on, brother! I didn't expect my brother to compete with Shaquille O'Neal so soon! Erin, who was in Seattle, silently cheered for George, and when she saw George and the taller O'Neill appear in the same picture, she excitedly took a "group photo" with her mobile phone for the two.
O'Neal is Irene's favorite NBA star.
After George appeared on the stage, he has been paying attention to the situation on the field, he is in the opposite position with Ray Allen, Ray Allen has a reputation as a gentleman, and will not have any conflict with George, Pierce's confrontation with Gallinari is a bit like an adult bullying a child, Pierce is indeed a little excessive in action, but Gallinari has a weak personality, and he does not dare to speak up in the face of an FMVP-level superstar like Pierce.
The confrontation between Mozgov and O'Neal, O'Neal as the "most dominant center", did not seem so brutal when he played, after all, he was older, he was 38 years old, and his athleticism had dropped too much, but fortunately, Mozgov, who was fourteen years younger than him, was not too aggressive, otherwise, O'Neill would have done a lot of excesses in order to stop Mozgov's attack.
O'Neal is one of the stars George knows best, as he is his sister's favorite NBA player.
In George's view, the most likely thing to go wrong is the pairing of Garnett and Stoudemire.
Back in Garnett's time with the Timberwolves and Stoudemire's time with the Suns, the two faced off many times, and each time they played well.
Today's showdown between the two is still the biggest attraction of the game.
Stoudemire is not afraid of Garnett, and he will be very decisive to break through Garnett and then score inside dunks, and he has scored several such goals in a row in this game.
In fact, during the period of the two Timberwolves and the Suns, Xiao Si did this when he faced Garnett, at that time Garnett was younger and faster, and he couldn't stop Xiao Si's beastly and brutal way, Xiao Si just relied on Garnett not to dare to confront him physically, so he was so unscrupulous.
Now, Smalls is still in his prime, while Garnett is 34 years old.
"Well done! Amare! You'll be the MVP of the year! Blow up KG! Seeing Stoudemire's tough performance, Spike Lee also kept praising and boasting on the sidelines.
As a veteran player who entered the NBA in the last century, Garnett is naturally no stranger to Spike Lee and the story between him and NBA players. ”
"Hahaha." Spike Lee didn't get angry when he heard this, after all, Garnett had already won the respect of all the fans after so many years in the league, and he just regarded it as a joke, "You're old too, man, you should consider retiring or switching to New York to play health basketball." ”
George was on the field, watching all this happening in each group of matchups, and already had a judgment in his heart: "Today's conflict, it is possible that Stoudemire, he is playing too well, KG or the rest of the Celtics, in order to stop him, may make some excessive moves." Once that happens, I'll have to stand up for him and transfer the conflict to me, but ......"
George looked at these fierce guys on the field who had the temperament of a gangster boss, and was worried that once he provoked them, he might get into trouble.
To put it more bluntly: you can't beat it!
The ones who provoked before, whether it was Mike Beasley or Monta Ellis, if they were really angry and fought with George, then George would definitely have an advantage with Hayes's ability.
But now, the people are completely different.
Paul Pearce, the tough guy in the tough guy, this is a fierce man who fights directly to the audience, even Ron Artest, he dares to be tough, George has also heard the story about Pierce being stabbed 11 times in a nightclub and not dying, he and Carmelo Anthony have the style of a gangster boss, and you know at a glance that you must not provoke the object.
George used Hayes's strength to fight Pierce, and there was no chance of winning! There is a high chance that you will be abused!
Kevin Garnett, the king of trash talk, he and Pierce have always complained to the media that the current league is like AUU Baby, and the AUU basketball league is an amateur league in the United States, with an age of 9 to 18 years old, which means that this group of "kids" is not ruthless.
Garnett is definitely not afraid of provocation and not afraid of fighting, although he is not so strong, but he has a height of two meters and one and one, and an arm span of two meters and twenty-six, George is only one meter and ninety-six.
George and Garnett may not be able to take advantage of it!
Shaquille O'Neal, this is the most unallowed star in NBA history, there is no one, as the most pretending player in history, he naturally attaches great importance to face and dignity, since his rookie season was dunked, no one dares to be presumptuous in front of him.
Charles Barkley can't, the big worm Rodman can't, Jordan's royal bodyguard Oakley can't, juniors like Yao McEcho, not to mention, they don't have the guts.
George has the advantage of speed against the huge O'Neal, but he may be crushed to death, and he can't!
There are three people on the opposite side, and George can't beat them! can only abuse "little Rondo".
But as a point guard, the probability of Rondo clashing with Xiaosi is too small.
Just when George was worried, what he had expected happened.
Xiao Si once again broke through Garnett's defense, entered the penalty area, and was ready to give another fierce dunk, but O'Neal did not "old stroke" again, and quickly pushed away Mozgov, knowing that he couldn't jump Xiao Si, and pushed Xiao Si out of the air with his infinitely powerful arms!
Bang!
Xiao Si fell heavily to the ground!
A teammate was viciously fouled, and this was the moment George had been waiting for!
But...... This time, the person George has to deal with is O'Neill!
George's heart was a little panicked.
Irene, who was far away in Seattle, also suddenly panicked.
