The Nets are unhurried, and this season the Nets have been the slowest teams in the league. When Delon dribbled past half court, it seemed to be just eight seconds away.

Then the old toothless chariot began to restart, with Joe Johnson running from the bottom right corner to 45 degrees to the left, and Garnett taking over the basketball from the corner to the corner.

Garnett singled with his back, hit Frye and rolled over for a jumper.

Many Chinese players are always questioned about "age is a mystery", and in the United States, the height of NBA players is also a mystery many times. From college leagues to NBA leagues, from All-Star players to water cooler patrons, many people are working on their height profile.

On the issue of "height fraud", NBA players are no less common than the faces of Korean entertainment stars. So the question is, why do these basketball players, who are more than 2.7 billion men in the world, always misrepresent their height?

In the league, many players like to report their height to make themselves more marketable in the draft, such as Ben Wallace's official height of 2.06 meters, but his actual height is 2.01 meters. He always wanted to play inside, so he reported a height of 2.06 meters, with that explosive hairstyle in the early days, to see if there was still such a thing. Later, when he was on the Pistons, he had no worries about his job, so he said it happily. Recalling that when he tried out that year, the coach of the training camp had a good eye for height and directly assigned him to play point guard, which made Daben directly lose the selection, and he has always held a grudge.

And Jason Collins, the first player in the NBA to "come out", also falsely reported his height of nearly 10cm for the sake of the draft pick. After leaving the league, his true height was revealed to be 203cm (6'8"), and when he entered the league, his official height was 213cm (7').

"I put on shoes, pads, wrist guards, and two pairs of socks...... So I'm almost 211 cm to 212 cm (6 feet 11 inches). Collins once confessed, "I didn't expect to end up with 213 cm (7 feet), which is also a joke." ”

Durant's height has always been a mystery, when he first entered the league, Adu always insisted that his height was only 2.03 meters, and later said that it was less than 2.06 meters, and after playing for a few years, more and more coaches protested: "Fuck, he said 2.03 meters, but when I sent 2.03 meters to defend him, I could only see his chin." In this way, Adu's true height was revealed, which is 2.11 meters at the center forward level.

"The reason why I had to write my height as 206cm when I entered the league was because it was the standard height for an NBA small forward. If I say I'm 211cm, a lot of people will ask me to play power forward. Durant himself explained the reason for changing his height, "I might say that I have 213cm when I am flirting with my sister, but on the court, I only want my height to be 206cm. Durant preached afterward.

Another player who thinks the same way as Durant is his predecessor Garnett, in fact, many people have always thought that Durant's template is Garnett.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the late Timberwolves coach Phyllis Sanders repeatedly teased Garnett's height as "6'13". The latter's physical test before entering the league was 215cm, but the "Wolf King" insisted on changing it to 211cm (6'11"), for the simple reason that he didn't want to be the team's center, "I don't want to play center, so I have to play against O'Neal." ”

The others didn't know, but Channing Fry hated Garnett's approach anyway, "This thing is five centimeters taller than me, and its arm span is about 10 centimeters longer than mine!" How to prevent it! ”

"Huh!" Garnett hit a high jumper for two points. 4:3

"Dude, you can't stop me!" Garnett yelled excitedly.

"Hell, watch your saliva, spray me in the face!" Channingfrye touched his face with disgust and said, and Gobert's sympathetic gaze came from the side.

"What did you say?" Garnett is close to Frye Avenue.

"Hell, disgusting, don't come near me, you're squirting saliva in my mouth, get out of here!" Frye quickly covered his mouth with his left hand and waved him away with his right hand.

In the offensive and defensive rotation, Bledsoe quickly dribbled across the half, and Li Mojie received the ball at 45 degrees on the left wing.

Middleton and Bledsoe opened up space, and Li Mojie did not choose to play alone, but played with Channing Frye. Neither man was slow, and with 35-year-old Pierce and 37-year-old Garnett easily creating gaps, Lopez had no choice but to defend from the inside.

As soon as Lopez came out, he completely let go of Rudy Gobert, Li Mojie didn't even look at it, bent sideways and threw the ball, and the ball was in the hands of Gobert, who had already gone down.

"Nice big picture and passing ability!" Kenny Smith exclaimed.

"Bang!" Gobert scored his first score of the game with a dunk.

"Well done!" Gobert excitedly bumped his chest with Li Mojie.

Pierce sighed and looked at Li Mojie's athletic hands, his face full of the shadow of his 20-year-old.

"Paul, it's time to let these rookies know how good our old guys are!" Garnett walked over and patted Pierce on the shoulder.

"Ah, yes, we're not old, our goal this season is to win the championship!" Pierce replied firmly.

Delon is still a slow dribble over the half, the previous Nets record was 2-5, which is completely inconsistent with the momentum of the Nets' boastful championship before the regular season, which has a lot to do with Delon The sluggish state.

You can't expect the aging Pierce, Joe Johnson, Garnett and other veterans to play hard in the regular season, but Delong, who was born in 84, is only 29 years old this year, and it is the time when basketball players are at their peak, but he is dull and chose to decline, on the one hand, it is an injury, but on the other hand, Chubby left the strictly managed Jazz team, left the monotonous Salt Lake City, Utah, in the bustling Big Apple City, New York, Chubby suddenly let himself go, this season the Nets tried to take Deron Williams as the core, With Robin Lopez, 32-year-old Joe Johnson, and Pierce as a veteran, coupled with the obvious weakening of the Heat lineup this year, it is not impossible to do something big.

But this season, the Nets have played seven games, and they basically can't see Dellon's gorgeous change of direction and breakthrough anymore, and more of them barely get rid of the layup after that, and the rhythm of shooting has not been found.

In Li Mojie's previous life, Pierce even said: "Kevin and I came to the Nets to hug our thighs, but I didn't expect that in the end we would become thighs!" ”

An old-school player like Pierce can't understand how a player with an annual salary of 20 million can't do it without working hard. It's hard for a player who has been injured to stay absolutely motivated mentally. But let's look at Kobe, look at Westbrook. Not everyone can't do it.

"Nice defense, Deron was cornered by Bledsoe and Eric made a steal!" Kenny Smith shouted.

Nets legend Buck Williams scolded unceremoniously: "This guy has the highest salary on the team, look what the hell he plays!" ”

"Give it to me!" Li Mojie saw Delong's forced mistake, ran to the front court and shouted.

Bledsoe immediately made a long pass, and Li Mojie ran to the Nets' half court in three steps and two steps, and Pierce could only watch Li Mojie's back and get the basketball in the air.

Looking back, it was still Delon who controlled the ball unhurriedly for half the court, and it was not until everyone on the Nets was in place that he passed to Robin Lopez, who leaned on Gobert a few times and found that this guy had enough tonnage and strength, and did not play strongly, and handed it to Garnett near the bottom left corner, and Garnett faced Frye with a straight arm jumper.

"Huh!" The ball obediently drilled into the net bag.

"Look, man, do you think you can stop me?" Garnett yelled excitedly again.

"Seeing Kevin, the old man, talking about the appearance of a teenager, I also want to go on the court and beat him a few times!" Barkley said with emotion.

"Kevin is so excited today!" Kenny Smith observed.

"Well, that's true, you see Frye being spewing trash talk by him, and he didn't even dare to return his mouth and defended himself!" Buck Williams nodded in satisfaction.

Thanks to the 500 starting coins of the little soldier 911 for the reward, thank you for the memory of the monthly pass, the first monthly pass!
