Chapter 370: Recruiting Maddie
"CCTV, CCTV, the game that is now broadcast live for everyone is the New York Knicks vs. the Houston Rockets. The Knicks team has Yang Mo, who we are most familiar with, who has just led our Chinese team to win the Asian Championships, and the Iranian team has no temper at all by us. After the start of the new NBA season, he led the Knicks to a good record of four wins and one loss, including strong teams such as the Lakers and Spurs. For the Rockets, the audience and friends are all too familiar, except for our Yao Ming, we all know the other players...... Okay, it's game on! Jordan Hill jumped to the ball for the Knicks...... Wow! Oh, my God! Oh, my God! dunked, actually dunked. After Yang Mo received the basketball, he soared all the way, and actually dunked directly, and Maddie, who was defending him, hadn't even run into the three-point line. That's fast! CCTV host Yu Jia yelled excitedly at the beginning.
And the ball commentator sitting next to him is still the familiar Coach Zhang, a guy who was called Chinese Barkley when he was a player, but he doesn't think of himself as a power forward, he thinks he is a second center.
Yang Mo's opening dunk caused a tsunami at the Toyota Center, which is very normal, and he was also welcomed in San Antonio and Dallas, because Super-Yang fans are everywhere. This ubiquity certainly includes Texas.
Enthusiastic fans screamed for Yang Mo, and Yang Mo also waved to them, feeling as if they were holding a solo concert. If he takes the microphone and shouts, 'Let me see your hands, move!' That's more like that.
Tracy Maddy didn't mind too much about Yang Mo enjoying the tsunami on his home turf, he was very indifferent, he had become a leader who didn't look like a leader. Ever since he came back from injury, he's felt the big gap. In the past, whether it was a fan, a teammate or a manager, everyone's attitude towards him was respectful, and he was the focus wherever he went. But now, people seem to be more accustomed to him appearing as a supporting character. He was even booed by the fans, which he couldn't have imagined before.
And the reason for all this is because of injuries.
In a sense, the NBA is like it, you were the top card when you were young, but it doesn't mean that you will be the top card all your life, and when you are old and decrepit, who will be rare about you?
From peak to decline, it is a process that every professional player has, but Maddie has declined too quickly. He is younger than Kobe Bryant, who is still the nominal first person in the NBA!
"I'm not used to wearing the number three jersey at all." Yang Mo looked at McGrady with some sentimentality, and said without any sarcasm: "After all, your No. 1 jersey is an indelible basketball memory for me, although you have not been my idol, but you have always been very strong in my heart." ”
Yang Mo's words made Maddie smile slightly, and said confidently and stinky: "I'm still very strong now, I can still kick your ass." ”
"Come on, you've said a lot of big things." Yang Mo shrugged his shoulders and said, "You are still old after all." ”
As soon as Yang Mo's words came out, Maddie's eyes suddenly burned with unconvincing, he seemed to be particularly sensitive to the word "old".
As soon as he got back to half-time, he reached for Kyle Lori to reach for the ball. In the past, the boss asked for the ball, and the defender dared not pass it? Now, Kyle Lori hesitated for a long time before he could barely get the ball over.
Although Maddie was unhappy, after receiving the ball, he still put all his attention on the offense, he was eager to score this goal, he wanted to use this ball to tell Yang Mo that he was not old.
So he took a tentative step and dribbled in the opposite direction.
In the past, he only wanted the opponent to hesitate a little and get rid of the defense completely. After all, he was known as the fastest player in the league. And now? It took Yang Mo less than half a second to catch up with his reaction, because... His explosive power has been lost, but Yang Mo's explosive power has reached a certain limit.
It's a sad thing for Maddie.
But he didn't give up, and quickly pulled back again, changing the center of gravity, and then suddenly turned around and opened up half a step away, and quickly threw a jumper backwards...... Swish!
The basketball drilled into the Nets with a super high amplitude! The soft voice made some Rocket fans at the Toyota Center cry out with joy.
At this moment, Yang Mo did not wait for Maddie's victory declaration, but pulled his legs and ran wildly to the front court, and when Jordan Hill saw this, he directly threw the ball to the front court with a long throw. Kyle Lori hurriedly wanted to snatch the basketball with Yang Mo, but Yang Mo announced the victory with the speed of the wind, grabbed the basketball first, and then stopped directly outside the three-point line and jumped out of the ...... Swish!
Basketball goes to the net!
The joy of the Rockets fans lasted less than two seconds, and Yang Mo's fans doused them with cheers that filled the stadium.
This is a complete answer-ball, but it is difficult for Maddie to enter, and Yang Mojin is simple.
Yang Mo ran back to the half, and Tracy Maddie's face was a little unsightly. Once upon a time, his goal was simpler than the current Yang Mo, and he only needed to defend face-to-face and pull out the jumper. Because of this alliance, those who are more explosive than him are not as high as him, and those who are higher than him are not as explosive as him. So, his pull-and-pull jumper is one of the league's hardest games to defend, weird, sudden, and accurate.
Unfortunately, now he has lost that memory. If he loses his explosive power, if he faces his opponent again, there is only one end, and that is to be blocked. After all, the young guys in the NBA can jump more than one another, and he doesn't want to be sent back to the bench by one block after another at the end of his career. So, he had to change his style of play.
"Would you like to tell me about your dry pulling skills and first step start-up skills? I can get New York to trade you over. Yang Mo said to Maddie very simply: "I can even take you to get a championship ring, but your annual salary in the future will probably only be one-tenth of what you are now." ”
Yang Mo's words are naked and honest, his request is very simple, that is, he wants to learn Maddie's skills to activate explosive power, and his temptation is also very simple, which is to help Maddy realize his dream of winning the championship and let him say goodbye to the embarrassing identity of a debut-man in the second round.
For Yang Mo, although he now has the peak explosiveness of Sean Kemp, he always feels a little lacking in starting. Obviously, he has 10,000 catties of strength in his body, but he can only use 3,000 catties, which seriously restricts his performance on the court, so he wants to find a master for himself so that he can go to the next level in strength.
And for Maddie, Yang Mo's invitation can be regarded as a temptation, Yang Mo now has unlimited potential, and he will never worry about sponsors with him, and his influence is much greater than Yao Ming. And he does have the potential to win a championship, and New York is a big city. If you can offer yourself a long-term contract, it doesn't matter if the contract amount is a little less, anyway, as long as he is still playing, Adidas will pay him a sponsorship fee, which is the big one.
But... Is it a face-saving thing to ask Maddie to do for a fledgling rookie?
Maddie is a face-loving person.
While Maddie was silent, Yang Mo continued: "You don't have to give me an answer now, we'll contact you when you think about it." Now concentrate on playing. ”
Just as Yang Mo spoke, Adelman on the sidelines asked for a substitution. Yang Mo then noticed that Trevor Ariza had come up and replaced Maddie. And he's wearing Maddie's No. 1 jersey now.
Looking at the former No. 1 jersey wearing on the nondescript person in front of him, Yang Mo suddenly felt a sense of disgust.
Damn, it's!
Yang Mo was a little indignant, so he planned to teach this guy a heavy lesson.
At the same time, CCTV's Yu Jia was also puzzled by Adelman's substitution: "It's only been less than two minutes of the game, why is Adelman in such a hurry to replace Maddie?" Although Maddie is not as eye-catching as Yang Mo, he just scored a three-pointer? And the person is the leader of Team Rocket, and he actually said that he would change it, which is too faceless. ”
"This time and that time!" Director Zhang sighed and analyzed from a professional point of view: "Adelman may be because Maddie didn't catch up with Yang Mo's footsteps twice, he may still want to use Ariza to defend Yang Mo, it seems that Ariza's defense is a little stronger." But... I think it's also mysterious, as soon as Yang Mo runs, let alone Ariza, even Arirang can't catch up! ”
"yes, Ariza isn't a player who relies on speed. Now the Rockets are determined to take him as the core, but... His offensive skills are too poor, and his technical movements always feel hard and not soft at all. ”
"Isn't it, Ariza used to be a supporting actor with the Lakers. Now that he is being asked to do the core work, how can he possibly complete it? It's so embarrassing! ”
The two of them were saying this, and Ariza in the front court received the ball. He received the ball for less than five seconds and had just dropped it in an attempt to dribble...... Syllable!
Yang Mo's long arm pulled out, directly knocked his ball down, and then drilled it violently, and rushed towards the front court with his ball. Ariza immediately turned around and tried his best to catch up, but unfortunately, his speed was still not Yang Mo's opponent. In the end, he could only watch Yang Mo rush into the unguarded forbidden area and come to a ...... Layups!
I have to say that the Rockets team that lost Yao Ming, Maddie and Artest has become a complete bad team, and it actually made Yang Mo succeed in three consecutive fast attacks. This is already a rotten rhythm to the bone!!
