Chapter 10: Battle against the Knights

The Eagles challenged James who did not have a little emperor away, and James chose to suspend due to injury! Only after the opening half of the quarter, the coach sent Beasley on the court to replace the center position, and the coach wanted to see how Beasley and the main players cooperated, and the most important thing was to see the chemistry between him and Josh and Joe Johnson!

Due to the unpleasantness between Josh and Beasley last time, Josh looked unhappy after seeing Beasley play, but after that, Beasley's had a 180-degree turn!

At this time, the Hawks' lineup on the court is Beasley center, Josh power forward, small forward Marvin Williams, scoring guard Joe Johnson, and point guard Tyronn Lue.

Beasley is responsible for the big Z, this year's big Z is in the year of play, born in 1975, he is 32 years old this year, and he will be in the NBA best defensive team this year in history!

For this kind of big man inside, the Eagles' entire team's interior offense is covered, after all, the Eagles' interior line is a bit short compared to the 2.21-meter big Z.

Beasley singled Big Z with his back, but Beasley's height was 15 cm shorter than Big Z, Big Z saw that this kid wanted to use his body to arch himself and then score, Big Z did not go as he wished, although Big Z did not have a strong body, and he was not good at hand-to-hand combat on the inside, but his ball quotient was very high, and he would use his veteran experience to limit the opponent, in this game Big Z did not choose to defend at the top, he had heard that Beasley's strength was very large, and it was said that the strength was almost the same as that of Big Ben at his peak!

Beasley saw that there was no pressure behind him, and he didn't think much about it, so he hurriedly jumped up and wanted to wipe the board and shoot, but he was covered by Big Z's long arm! Not only Beasley, but Josh was also choked enough by Big Z's help defense, and he almost didn't score much under the basket!

On the defensive end, Big Z used his height advantage to shoot, and repeatedly scored on Beasley with feints on the inside! For the big Z who is more than half a head taller than himself, Beasley has no choice, this big Z has a good shot, if he doesn't jump up to defend his shot, he will be scored by his jumper, if he jumps, the big Z will use his slow pace to wipe the board and make a layup!

After being beaten a few times by Big Z, Beasley was not discouraged, but found it very interesting, Big Z is the highest inside line he has encountered so far, of course, he will meet the little Chinese giant - Yao Ming in the future!

Beasley holds the ball two or three steps away from the penalty area, and to deal with this slow center is to rely on breakthroughs, Beasley first dribbles continuously under the crotch, and then shakes the big Z in a very large disguise, and when the big Z catches up, Beasley has already completed the one-handed split!

"This kid's dribble breakthrough is really good!" Josh saw Beasley tear through Big Z's defense, and couldn't help but praise in his heart!

Many fans at the scene were amazed by Beasley's breakthrough technique, which is completely a move that can only be done by a small man!

But on the defensive end, Big Z leaned his back against Beasley and used his height advantage to hit a direct hook shot on top of Beasley's head. Although Beasley's bullet speed is good, the height difference is too big, and it is easy to be deceived by Big Z's feints!

After being beaten by Big Z in the interior line, Beasley stepped forward and chatted with Josh Smith about something, Josh, who had just approached Beasley, had a disdainful expression on his face, but then he actually leaked a lewd smile!

Beasley used his speed to break through Big Z, but this time Big Z used his years of defensive experience to keep up with Beasley's footsteps, Beasley relied on Big Z to break through to the basket, but there was no space to shoot under the defense of Big Z's long arms and height.

Beasley suddenly shouted, the muscles of his whole body burst out, and he directly hung a big Z! Big Z was pushed to the ground by the force coming from Beasley!

Josh, who was closest to Beasley, ran over to celebrate with him as soon as possible, completely unaware that they were still incompatible "enemies" before!

"Today's young people are really energetic!" Big Z said secretly in his heart.

Big Z continued to hold the ball in the low post, wanting to continue to use his height to play Beasley, Big Z was the same as before, arching a back to Beasley, just when Big Z wanted to attack, Beasley made a look at Josh, and when Big Z's hook shot did not reach the top of his head, he was covered by Josh, who was already staring at Big Z, and also controlled the ball in his hand!

It turned out that Beasley had just found Josh and talked about something, it was about how to limit Big Z, Beasley admitted to Josh that he faced such a tall center, unless he couldn't shoot it himself, otherwise it would be difficult to restrict, and let Josh help him defend Big Z, and told Josh that Big Z has a very serious flaw when attacking, and Big Z likes to dribble the ball before attacking!

Big Z is a very smart big man, he knows that there are people next to him to help defend him, and he also noticed this aspect in the next offense, but because of this, Big Z's offense is difficult to play, and the Cavaliers have a scoring drought in a short period of time!

In the second quarter of the game, due to the amazing physical fitness of the two, Josh and Beasley played an aerial relay in the offensive and defensive transitions many times, completely treating the top of the Cavaliers as their own territory!

"These little guys seem to be working together very well, and they can't tell that this is the first time they are present at the same time!" The head coach of the Eagles was very happy to see that the two most talented boys on the team could play such a tacit cooperation

The game ended 105-92, Beasley played 30 minutes and cut 29 points, 13 rebounds and 1 block, but this block was not given to Big Z but to Delonti West, who broke through, and will also become the Queen Mother's little lover in the near future! And Josh cut 22 points, 6 rebounds and 3 blocks, 2 of which were given to Big Z!

After the game, Beasley and Josh talked and laughed, and to outsiders, they looked like good friends for many years, and they couldn't see that they had been estranged before!

Josh affirmed Beasley's strength in this game, and also appreciated Beasley's basketball IQ, Beasley's passing was very good, he could always give himself the ball in the most comfortable position for himself, and when he was about to die, he could always appear in the best position!

The head coach of the Eagles saw that the relationship between the two had finally eased a little, but the headache came again, the current boss of the team is Joe Johnson, Josh is also eyeing this position, and now there is an inherently unconvincing beast - Beasley! The Big Three model hasn't emerged in the league yet, but the Celtics in history are going to form a Big Three this year and win the championship this season!
