Chapter 144: Outstanding Talent (Part 2)
At halftime, the Heat were fighting inwardly, but the Bulls were studying how to choke the Heat's strange lineup, and finally at the suggestion of Derrick Rose, the targeted defensive strategy was for Rose to take the initiative to defend Sean Livingston and strangle his tandem, and as for Beasley, the Heat's offensive finisher, it was handed over to Lore Deng to defend.
In this way, a mismatch advantage was formed, and the Heat's offense was completely locked in.
After the game began, when Moneymos dribbled the ball over the half court and handed the ball to Livingston as usual, Rose immediately followed Livingston with the basketball, and kept squeezing the space to defend Livingston with his body.
Although Livingston is much taller than Rose, his body is too thin, and his leg has been broken again, so he can only dodge backwards, and as soon as he dodges like this, the Heat's original smooth offensive system immediately stops working, because the basketball can't be passed out in his hands at all.
Yang Mo saw that Livingston was struggling and was about to lose the ball, so he hurriedly ran to the outside line and helped him clear the ball and catch his ball. I just wanted to pass it back, but I found that Rose was always following Livingston, and the basketball couldn't pass it at all.
Seeing this, Yang Mo had no choice but to pass the ball to Beasley, and after Beasley received the ball, the defensive object became Lohrdeng, who was known for his defense. suddenly seemed a little staggered, and finally shook off the opponent with difficulty and made a jumper...... Boom!
Basketball hits iron.
Yang Mo has already pulled to the outside, so he can't grab the rebound at all, so he can only go back to defense.
Finally... The drawbacks of this lineup arose, as the initiator of the offense, as well as the sole autonomous offense creator, were strangled to death.
At this time, someone has to step up and score, otherwise the Heat team will inevitably collapse.
Swish!
Back in the backcourt, Ben Gordon used his running to shake off the Livingston defense and threw in a three-pointer. The Heat, who were still one point ahead, immediately fell behind by two points.
The ball rotated back, and the Heat still couldn't break the Bulls' defensive cage. In the end, Beasley still forced his shot to miss.
Spoelstra, who was on the sidelines, saw this scene and subconsciously wanted to call a timeout. But he still didn't scream under selfishness, he wanted to see if Yang Mo could turn the tide this time, or he looked forward to Yang Mo being deflated on the field, and then lowered his eyebrows and asked him to arrange tactics.
From the very beginning, Spoelstra had prejudices about Yang Mo, not so much because of personal problems, but because of what he called national pride. When he saw Yang Mo, he couldn't help but think of the South China Sea, and the islands that were stationed by the Chinese Navy at the gate of the capital.
But what can be done about it? Who wants you Filipino maids to be so weak? That territory has been the territory of China since ancient times.
When the team's offense was limited twice and the head coach did not call a timeout, Yang Mo took the initiative to stand up, and he shouted to his teammates when he returned to the half of the defense: "Next, we will focus on the inside line and hand over the ball to me to deal with." ”
Regarding Yang Mo's statement, his teammates have no opinion. Because the role of the leader is manifested in the moment of crisis.
Back in the half, Derrick Rose played the ball to Lore Deng for the first time. Lore Deng received the ball near the free throw line to face James Jones' defense, and directly went to the sky to trick Jones' center of gravity into jumping, seizing the opportunity, Lore Deng threw the ball out without hurry...... Boom!
The basketball hit the iron, Yang Mo knocked Noah behind him away with a slight pout, and easily took the basketball down with his arm stretched.
Then he handed the ball directly to Chanmos and ran quickly to the front. Running into the penalty area, Yang Mo stuck Joaquin Noah for the first time, and then reached out to ask for the ball. Chanmos didn't hesitate and quickly hoisted the ball in.
Yang Mo received the ball, and as soon as his butt sank, he pushed it inside. Joaquin Noah did not take the initiative to make physical contact, but took a step and let Yang Mo squeeze inside, anyway, he made up his mind to wait for Yang Mo to stop, as long as he made a move, he used his height to block it and cover his shot.
His defensive strategy is correct, but Yang Mo can't let him get his wish.
After Yang Mo pushed the ball into the three-second zone, he suddenly turned to the left and turned one by one, and Noah, who was supposed to take a step to defend, quickly pounced, raising his arms high and preparing to jump and block.
Seeing this, Yang Mo directly put the ball up a little bit and took a step forward with his right foot. Noah hurriedly leaned his weight to this side, ready to seal it.
At this moment, Yang Mo suddenly turned back around the central axis. Noah was afraid that Yang Mo would shoot the basketball, so he quickly pounced again. As soon as he adjusted his center of gravity and pounced, Yang Mo had already put down his butt and pressed against his body, quickly turned around and came directly to the basket, stepped forward and jumped high and dunked the ball into the basket.
At the moment when Yang Mo dunked vigorously, Noah's eyes even looked in the opposite direction.
He didn't expect Yang Mo to actually play three turns in front of him in a row, and the total feints were more than four.
It's hard to prevent it!
Noah couldn't help but feel dazed and helpless in his heart, he really tried his best with this ball.
But in this cruel world, 'do your best' is a very pale word, because talent is always greater than hard work. Those who say that 'genius is 99 percent perspiration and 1 percent talent' are often not geniuses, and only geniuses know how important that one percent of talent really is.
Yang Mo is obviously a genius, and his talent is far more than one percent.
At least his spinning dunk stunned the Bulls fans.
Michael Jordan in the VIP box stood up even more excitedly and waved his arms fiercely.
"It's so smart, it's amazing! I actually fused the inside pace with my back singles. At the beginning, the tentative steps were very Olajuwon, but in the end, the rotation around the body was the hip rotation method I gave him, too... Amazing learning talent, I can't believe he only studied for an hour. Michael Jordan was so excited that even if he exchanged his own son with Pat Riley now, he wouldn't frown, because his two straw bale sons together had studied for nearly thirty years and didn't have one percent of Yang Mo's dexterity.
It's just that... Pat Riley won't trade with him, why do you exchange those two gentlemen? Loser?
